Effects of Environmental Temperature on the Onset and the Duration of Oviposition Period of Caiman latirostris [PDF]

, 2013
Reproductive biology of Broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) may be affected by climatic variables. however, it remains unknown which are the specific climatic variables that affect the onset of oviposition, as well as its duration.

Ontogenetic and interelemental study of appendicular bones of Caiman latirostris Daudin, 1802 sheds light on osteohistological variability in crocodylians

Journal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 4, April 2024.
This in‐depth investigation provides unprecedented insight into the kinds of bone tissues that Caiman latirostris deposits during growth. Microstructural variability is related to differences in the prevailing environment. Abstract The osteohistology of vertebrates provides a reliable source to deduce biological information, particularly regarding ...

Impacts of red imported fire ants Solenopsis invicta on survivorship of hatchlings of the broad-snouted caiman Caiman latirostris [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Oviparous vertebrate species are often vulnerable to predation by red imported fire ants (RIFAs, Solenopsis invicta) in natural environments. The necrotic action of the venom can cause localized infections, with subsequent effects on survival

Evidence of cryptic lineages within a small South American crocodilian: the Schneider’s dwarf caiman Paleosuchus trigonatus (Alligatoridae: Caimaninae)

PeerJ, 2019
Schneider’s dwarf caiman Paleosuchus trigonatus is one of the smallest living crocodilians. Due to its broad distribution, cryptic behavior, and small home range, the species is well suited for the study of phylogeographic patterns on a continental scale.

A proxy for brain‐to‐endocranial cavity index in non‐neornithean dinosaurs and other extinct archosaurs

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 532, Issue 3, March 2024.
Illustration of the endocranial doming, which can provide a proxy for the brain‐to‐endocranial cavity index, using the endocast of an adult of the iguanodont dinosaur Proa valdearinnoensis as an example. Abstract Although the brain fills nearly the entire cranial cavity in birds, it can occupy a small portion of it in crocodilians.
