	PapuaWeb: Dingiso Tree-kangaroo (Flannery et al, 1996: 114-115)
		Dingiso is unique among tree-kangaroos in possessing remarkable facial markings, which appear to develop with age.
		Dingiso is found only in the high montane forest and subalpine scrubs of the Sudirman Range, Irian Jaya.
		Male Dingiso may be prompted to use this display to any large mammal that intrudes on their territory, including humans.

	The Dingiso
		They believed the dingiso to be sacred, and fittingly the scientific name "mbaiso" translates to "forbidden" in the local dialect.
		The Dingiso is known by locals as the bondegezou.
		The dingiso is a close relative of Doria's Tree Kangaroo (Dendrolagus dorianus).

		The Dingiso, Dendrolagus mbaiso also known as Bondegezou is a species of tree-kangaroo native and endemic to Western New Guinea of Indonesia.

	Meeting the ancestors \| COSMOS magazine
		Biologists, who are a more prosaic bunch than the Moni, view dingiso's behaviour differently, descrying in it a typical tree-kangaroo threat display.
		With the discovery of dingiso I felt that I had hit the high point in my career as a biologist.
		None, however, was as unusual as dingiso, and none had such an interesting evolutionary and cultural story to tell.

	RE: Yoyoism (was Re: Endothermic Crocs in Nature)
		However, there is one species of tree-kangaroo, the dingiso of New Guinea (_Dendrolagus mbaiso_), that spends most of its time on the ground.
		Thus, the dingiso is a secondarily terrestrial tree-kangaroo.
		This means that the line went from arboreal to terrestrial to arboreal to terrestrial.

		Bulmer's Fruit-bat, a bat though extinct for 12,000 years, the largest cave dwelling bat in the world, Flannery was elated to have found them alive in extremely rugged western Papua New Guinea.
		The one though that Flannery is the most proud of discovering was the Dingiso, a new species of tree-kangaroo he found in the alpine areas of Irian Jaya, a beautiful fl and white animal, surprising tame, threatened but fortunately partially protected by native taboos against harming them.
		However, as remarkable as all of that is, one could argue that the real stars of this book are the people of New Guinea, particularly the indigenous Melanesian peoples that Flannery spends a great deal of time with and clearly loves.

		What has been your most exciting or personally satisfying discovery?
		FLANNERY: I think the discovery of that fl and white tree kangaroo, the Dingiso (Dendrolagus mbaiso), was the most amazing thing for me. An animal the size of a Labrador dog, as strikingly colored as that - that it could have remained undiscovered until 1995 seemed incredible.
		That was quite something to think, "I'm the first European to see this thing." Having the pleasure of describing it and figuring out a bit about its ecology and studying it was wonderful.
