Celebes Warty Pig – Sus celebensis

Sus celebensisMüller and Schlegel, 1843

Accepted name, Mammal Species of the World 2005

"comments: Although this species is sometimes cited from ""Müller, 1840. In Temminck, Verh. Nat. Gesch. Nederland. Overz. Bezitt., Zool., Zoogd. Indisch. Archipel., p. 42"", it is not found on that page. A species distinct from S. verrucosus (Groves, 1981a). Sus timoriensis is a feral population of S. celebensis according to Groves (1981a), but a valid species according to Hardjasasmita (1987) and a synonym of S. scrofa according to Corbet and Hill (1992). Groves (1981a) regarded warty pigs from Flores as a feral population of S. celebensis but Hardjasasmita (1987) assigned them to a separate species, Sus heureni which was included with a query in the synonymy of S. celebensis by Corbet and Hill (1992). A prior name for S. heureni is Microsus floresianus Heude, 1899. Both floresianus and timoriensis are provisionally ranked here as subspecies."
