Phylogenetic and ecological factors affecting the sharing of helminths between native and introduced rodents in Central Chile
(Cambridge University Press, 2018)
Copyright © Cambridge University Press 2018. In order to analyse the effect of hosts' relationships and the helminthic load on the switching of parasites between native and introduced hosts, we sampled rodents belonging ...
The genus guerrerostrongylus (Nematoda: Heligmonellidae) in cricetid rodents from the atlantic rain forest of misiones, Argentina: Emended description of guerrerostrongylus zetta (Travassos, 1937) and description of a new species
(American Society of Parasitologists, 2012-10)
Two species of Guerrerostrongylus Sutton and Durette-Desset, 1991, are reported in cricetid rodents from the Atlantic rain forest of Misiones, Argentina. Guerrerostrongylus zetta (Travassos, 1937) is redescribed on the ...
Phylogenetic and ecological factors affecting the sharing of helminths between native and introduced rodents in Central Chile
(Cambridge University Press, 2018-10)
In order to analyse the effect of hosts' relationships and the helminthic load on the switching of parasites between native and introduced hosts, we sampled rodents belonging to two suborders from Central Chile. We compared ...

First records of leucism in small rodents for Argentina
(Asociación Mexicana de Mastozoología, 2020-08)
Leucism appears in various groups of vertebrates, although it is rare in mammals. For Argentina, we do not know of any documented registry for small rodents. The objective of our work is to report the first cases of leucism ...
Thermoregulatory constraints on the microhabitat use by cricetid rodents in central chile
(1992)
The energetic cost of thermoregulation related to microhabitat use by nocturnal rodents is studied in four rodent species from central Chile. Rodents concentrate their activity under shrub canopies, avoiding open areas. ...
Morphological revision of Copemys loxodon, type species of the Miocene cricetid Copemys (Mammalia, Rodentia): a key to understanding the history of New World cricetids
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-03)
We provide a new morphological description of the holotype and a previously undescribed large sample of the type species of the genus Copemys Wood, 1936, Copemys loxodon (Cope, 1874a), a Miocene North American cricetid ...
Morphological description and comparison of sperm from eighteen species of cricetid rodents
(Alliance Communications Group Division Allen Press, 2018-12)
Analyses of the dimensions and morphology of spermatozoa can be useful in the identification of mammalian species. We compared and contrasted sperm morphology and dimensions in 9 genera and 18 species of the family Cricetidae. ...
