They resemble the better know members of family Mustelidae also termed 'badgers' (which are themselves a polyphyletic group). There are only two extant species - the Palawan stink badger (M. marchei), and the Sunda stink badger or Teledu (M. javanensis). They live only on western islands of the Malay Archipelago: Sumatra, Java, Borneo and (in the case of the Palawan stink badger) on the Philippine island of Palawan; as well as many other, smaller islands in the region. Stink badgers are named for their resemblance to other badgers and for the foul-smelling secretions that they expel from anal glands in self-defense (which is stronger in the Sunda species).[3] Stink badgers were traditionally thought to be related to Eurasian badgers in the subfamily Melinae of the weasel family of carnivorans (the Mustelidae), but recent DNA analysis indicates they share a more recent common ancestor with skunks, so experts have now placed them in the skunk family[3][4] (the Mephitidae, which is the sister group of a clade composed of Mustelidae and Procyonidae, with the red panda also assigned to one of the sister clades[5]). The two existing species are different enough from each other for the Palawan stink badger to be sometimes classified in its own genus, Suillotaxus.[3] References1. ^{{MSW3 Carnivora|id=14001566|pages=622-623}} {{Mephitidae nav}}{{Carnivora|C.}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q1507049}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Geoffroy-Saint-Hilaire|first1=Étienne|last2=Cuvier|first2=Frédéric|title=Histoire naturelle des mammifères|date=1821|location=Paris|pages=1–2|chapter-url=https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/43945937|chapter=Le télagon|volume=3 (27)}} 3. ^1 2 Stink badgers at the Badger Pages {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070806070901/http://www.badgers.org.uk/badgerpages/stink-badgers.html |date=2007-08-06 }} 4. ^{{cite journal |vauthors=Koepfli KP, Deere KA, Slater GJ, etal |title=Multigene phylogeny of the Mustelidae: resolving relationships, tempo and biogeographic history of a mammalian adaptive radiation |journal=BMC Biol. |volume=6 |issue=1 |pages=4–5 |year=2008 |pmid=18275614 |doi=10.1186/1741-7007-6-10 |pmc=2276185}} 5. ^{{Cite journal|last= Law|first=C.
