. The coat color is a uniform brown, but is darker on the head, neck, shoulders, legs, and tail; there are paler patches in front of the ears. The pelage can be slightly grizzled and the long tail sometimes has a white or pale yellow tip. The hairs of the neck are directed forward, a feature that also occurs in the Golden Palm Civet, but not in the Common Palm Civet. The feet have five digits. The metapodial pads are large and not well separated from the plantar pads; they cover the whole sole and the area between them is naked. On the hindfoot, the third and fourth digit pads are fused at the base. The perineal gland is simple and consists of a naked elongated area. The skull is very similar to that of the Common Palm Civet. Dental formula: 13/3,C1/1,P4/4, M 2/2 = 40 teeth. The upper carnassial retains a major portion of the metastylar blade and has a large parastyle, but does not have a posterolingual cingulum.

Mainly frugivorous. In the Kalakad-Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve, 1013 scats contained 91% seeds, fruits and flowers, 11% invertebrates (insects, millipedes, centipedes,snails, and crabs), and 4% vertebrates (small mammals, birds, and reptiles). There were also small quantities of grass and beeswax. The fruits of 53 native plants and four exotic species were consumed. There was considerable variation in the diet throughout the year: the highest consumption of animal prey occurred during the dry season and was related to the low availability of fruits, but there were other peaks in prey consumption that did not correspond to lower fruit availability.

Nocturnal. Radio-collared individuals were active 80% of the time between dusk and dawn (18:00-06:00 h). All sightings were at night. Daytime rest sites were on 19 tree species (mainly Syzygium spp. and Mangifera

Appears to be solitary: out of 14 sightings, all were of single individuals, except one observation of two together on the same tree. Although they are predominately arboreal and can be observed moving long distances through the canopy, they have been sighted, trapped and cameratrapped, on the ground. The home ranges of three adult males were 0-10, 0-33 and 0-56 km? The home range for a sub-adult male was 0-18 km? and 0-07 km* for a juvenile male. The home ranges of two adult females were 0-06 and 0-17 km*. There were spatial overlaps between some home ranges (up to 33%), although on a short temporal scale (during the same month) there were very little or no overlaps.

CITES Appendix III. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. Listed as Threatened in the 1989 IUCN Action Plan for the Conservation of Mustelids and Viverrids. The major threat is forest loss and degradation in the Western Ghats: Brown Palm Civets were found to be more common in medium-sized fragments adjoining coffee plantations than in more isolated smaller and larger fragments. Remaining isolated and disturbed rainforest patches on private lands should be identified and incorporated into an overall habitat conservation plan. Regular and systematic monitoring, using suitable field methods, should be implemented to ascertain population trends and distribution. More ecological studies are also needed.
