Moschiola
"Tragulus meminna"
from the Fauna of British India
Scientific classification
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Mammalia
Order: Artiodactyla
Family: Tragulidae
Genus: Moschiola

Spotted chevrotains (Moschiola) are a genus of small even-toed ungulates in the Tragulidae family. They are found in forests in India, Sri Lanka and perhaps Nepal, and have pale-spotted or -striped upperparts unlike the other Asian members of the family, the mouse-deer of the genus Tragulus.[1]

In former times, the genus was usually treated as monotypic. Described as Moschus meminna, for most of the time the name Tragulus meminna was used, but changed to Moschiola meminna eventually. In the 21st century, this is increasingly divided into up to three parapatric species:[2]

Nicety

by: Michelle

[Intro: x6]
Nice and... [James Brown:] ("Nasty! ")
(Ho!) ("HEY! ")
("Make it sound good") ("HEY! ")
[Verse 1: Michel'le (Dr. Dre)]
You know I can never do
Things that, you want me to
The way I appear to you
May not be true to you
So don't get your hopes too high
And don't be like other guys (Yeah, baby I'm a get you)
Assuming that every girl is just like that type
(Oh, is that right?)
Mennn...
(Hey baby, what's your name?)
Runnin' the same ol' sayin'
(Excuse me, honey, but is your husband married?)
[talking:] No more questions, no more games
[Chorus:]
Some people think I'm nice
Some people think I'm nasty
But if you really want to know
Just ask meeeeeee...
And I'll say I'm nicety
Hooooo-hoooo-hoooo, say I'm nicety
[interlude: x2]
Nice and... ("nasty") ("HEY! ")
[Verse 2: Michel'le (Dr. Dre)]
You said you would treat me right
And I'd never be alone
[talking:] But men'll say anything
Just to try to take you home (Yeah, I know that's right)
But don't get your hopes too high
'Cause I've got to keep it tight
And that's the way it will stay
Until I feel it's right (Oh, is that right?)
Mennn...
(Hey, don't I know you from somewhere?)
Runnin the same ol' sayin
(Yo, you comin over? I PROMISE I won't try anything)
[talking:] No more questions, no more games
[Chorus]
Nicetyyyyyy...
It's got to be nicety
Hooooo-hoooo-hoooo, say I'm nicety
Nicety-eeeeee...
You can call me nicety
Some people think I'm nice
Some people think I'm nasty
But if you really want to know
Just ask MEEEEEEEE...
And I'll say I'm -
[Dr. Dre:]
Nicety, or whatever you wanna call it
Ask my opinion and I think that all it is
Is just an excuse to givin the boots
For dollar and cents, and remain innocent
Dre with the Ruthless Attack, check it
'Cause all that you talkin about ain't Jack!
Step off of that, try a new approach
You get smoked because I ain't no joke
Yeah, yeah...
[interlude: x2]
Nice and... ("nasty") ("HEY! ")
You can call me nicety
Just say I'm nicety
You can call me nicety
Nicetyyyyy...
Just call me nicety
Hoooooo-hooooooo-hoooo, just call me nicety
