(Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales "Bernardino Rivadavia", 2012-12)
Los Mylodontinae (Xenarthra, Mylodontidae) están bien representados en el Mioceno tardío (Chasiquense-Huayqueriense) y Plioceno (Montehermosense-Chapadmalalense) de Sudamérica (con más de una docena de géneros reconocidos). ...
Postcranial anatomy of the extinct terrestrial sloth Simomylodon uccasamamensis (Xenarthra, Mylodontidae) from the Pliocene of the Bolivian Altiplano, and its evolutionary implications
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2021-08)
Extinct terrestrial sloths are common elements of the late Cenozoic South American fossil record. Among them, Mylodontinae species were particularly abundant in the Americas throughout the Pleistocene epoch, and their ...
New well-preserved craniodental remains of Simomylodon uccasamamensis (Xenarthra: Mylodontidae) from the Pliocene of the Bolivian Altiplano: Phylogenetic, chronostratigraphic and palaeobiogeographical implications
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-02)
Fossil remains of extinct terrestrial sloths have been discovered in numerous localities throughout the Americas, but knowledge of these animals remains poor in the tropical latitudes in comparison with the austral ones. ...
Mylodon darwini Owen (Xenarthra, Mylodontinae) from the late Pleistocene of Mesopotamia, Argentina, with remarks on individual variability, paleobiology, paleobiogeography, and paleoenvironment
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-09)
The subfamily Mylodontinae, typified by Mylodon, is known from the Colloncuran (late Miocene of Patagonia, Argentina) to the late Pleistocene of South America and North America. Mylodontinae have been recorded during the ...
The earliest well-documented occurrence of sexual dimorphism in extinct sloths: Evolutionary and palaeoecological insights
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-04)
Sexual dimorphism (SD) is extremely common in species that have reproductive roles segregated into separate sexes, and it has been recognized in several mammalian lineages, both extant and extinct. Sexual dimorphism is low ...
Thoracic member (pectoral girdle and forelimb) bones of Mylodon darwinii Owen (Xenarthra, Mylodontidae) from the Late Pleistocene of Central Argentina and their phylogenetic implications
(Springer Heidelberg, 2017-09)
A nearly complete skeleton, including most of the thoracic member bones of the sloth Mylodon darwinii, have been found in Upper Pleistocene strata from Anisacate River, Argentina. The thoracic member bones resemble their ...
