Note: Mammalia are divided into threes subclasses; --I. Placentalia. This subclass embraces all the higher orders, including man. In these the fetus is attached to the uterus by a placenta. II. Marsupialia. In these no placenta is formed, and the young, which are born at an early state of development, are carried for a time attached to the teats, and usually protected by a marsupial pouch. The opossum, kangaroo, wombat, and koala are examples. III. Monotremata. In this group, which includes the genera Echidna and Ornithorhynchus, the female lays large eggs resembling those of a bird or lizard, and the young, which are hatched like those of birds, are nourished by a watery secretion from the imperfectly developed mammæ.

mammal

mam mal |ˈmaməl ˈmæməl | noun a warm-blooded vertebrate animal of a class that is distinguished by the possession of hair or fur, the secretion of milk by females for the nourishment of the young, and (typically ) the birth of live young. The first small mammals evolved from reptiles about 200 million years ago, and the group diversified rapidly after the extinction of the dinosaurs to become the dominant form of land animal, with about 4,000 living species. Mammals belong to the class Mammalia, which contains the subclass Prototheria (monotremes ) and the infraclasses Metatheria (marsupials ) and Eutheria (placental mammals such as rodents, cats, whales, bats, and humans ). DERIVATIVES mam ma li an |məˈmālēən |adjective ORIGIN early 19th cent.: anglicized form (first used in the plural ) of modern Latin mammalia, neuter plural of Latin mammalis (adjective ), from mamma breast (see mamma 2 ).
