Abstract
Mungotictis lineata occupies, with Galidia elegans, a similar ecological niche in Madagascar to the mongooses in Africa and Asia ; the species even uses the same technique as mongooses for breaking-open eggs. M. lineata, which greatly resembles the asiatic Herpestes javanicus, is very unevenly distributed in deciduous forests on sandy soil in the West of Madagascar. Like G. elegans, the species lives in pairs and produces only one young per year.
