- Abstract
Microscopic hair analysis of Red Panda Ailurus fulgens was done using an optical light microscope for its species identification. The distinct microscopic characters such as 'irregular wav'e pattern and 'close' margin of cuticular scales, 'multicellular' and 'narrow medulla lattice' medulla and the 'circular' shape of the cross-section of hair determine the species identity of Ailurus fulgens. The high-resolution photo-micrographs and key characteristics of hair presented here can be used as an appropriate reference for species identification.
