Mass estimation of Santacrucian sloths from the Early Miocene Santa Cruz Formation of Patagonia, Argentina
(Polish Academy of Sciences. Institute of Paleobiology, 2014-08)
Miocene deposits of the Santa Cruz Formation, Patagonia, comprise a diverse and excellently preserved vertebrate fauna, allowing detailed paleobiological and paleoecological studies based on three ecological parameters: ...
Macroparasites of megamammals: The case of a Pleistocene-Holocene extinct ground sloth from northwestern Patagonia, Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-09)
Sloths and ground sloths (Xenarthra: Tardigrada) are among the most conspicuous mammals in the Cenozoic faunas of South America. During the late Pleistocene and the early Holocene, all the megafaunal xenarthrans became ...
Temporal and spatial resource use by female three-toed sloths and their young in an agricultural landscape in Costa Rica
(Universidad de Costa Rica, 2011)
Eremotherium laurillardi (Lund, 1842) (Xenarthra, Megatheriinae) is the only valid megatheriine sloth species in the Pleistocene of intertropical Brazil: A response to Faure et al., 2014Eremotherium laurillardi (Lund, 1842) (Xenarthra, Megatheriinae) est la seule espèce de paresseux mégathère dans le Pléistocène intertropical du Brésil : réponse à Faure et al., 2014
(Elsevier Masson, 2014-12)
Recent reports (Faure et al., 2014; Guérin and Faure, 2000, 2008) describe the existence, in intertropical Brazil, of a small (“dwarf”) megatheriine sloth, Eremotherium laurillardi (Lund, 1842), and a giant-sized megatheriine, ...
Body mass predicts isotope enrichment in herbivorous mammals
(Royal Society Publishing, 2018)
Carbon isotopic signatures recorded in vertebrate tissues derive from ingested food and thus reflect ecologies and ecosystems. For almost two decades, most carbon isotope-based ecological interpretations of extant and ...
