Los Alisos, a new fossiliferous locality for Guanaco Formation (late Miocene) in Jujuy (Argentina), and a first approach of its paleoecological and biochronology implications
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-04)
Very scarce information is available about the extinct Neogene communities of the Subandean valleys of Jujuy province, Northwestern Argentina. A new vertebrate fossiliferous locality (Los Alisos), and the first mammalian ...
Evolutive Implications of Megathericulus patagonicus (Xenarthra, Megatheriinae) from the Miocene of Patagonia Argentina
(Springer, 2019-05)
In this contribution we describe a partial dentary with teeth and an astragalus referred to the ancient megatheriine Megathericulus patagonicus Ameghino, 1904 (Xenarthra, Tardigrada) recovered from the Collón Curá Formation ...
Importance of xenarthrans in the eco-epidemiology of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis
(2009-12-01)
Background. Several pathogens that cause important zoonotic diseases have been frequently associated with armadillos and other xenarthrans. This mammal group typically has evolved on the South American continent and many ...

Integrating climate, ecophysiology, and forest cover to estimate the vulnerability of sloths to climate change
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, 2022-06-02)
Global change imposes multiple challenges on species and, thus, a reliable prediction of current and future vulnerability of species must consider multiple stressors and intrinsic traits of species. Climate, physiology, ...
