Abstract Mazamanemorivaga (Cuvier, 1817) is a gray brocket deer that inhabits the Amazon region. An assessment of previous studies revealed inconsistencies in its current taxonomic classification, suggesting the need for an update in its genus ...

Limb bone scaling in hopping macropods and quadrupedal artiodactyls [PDF]
Bone adaptation is modulated by the timing, direction, rate and magnitude of mechanical loads. To investigate whether frequent slow, or infrequent fast, gaits could dominate bone adaptation to load, we compared scaling of the limb bones from two ...

Available names for Rangifer (Mammalia, Artiodactyla, Cervidae) species and subspecies
Abstract Advancements in molecular and phylogenetic analysis have revealed the need for greater taxonomic resolution since Rangifer (Reindeer and caribou: Cervidae) was last revised in 1961.

In group-living animals, the social structure and organisation play a significant role in survival and reproduction. Understanding the social aspects of animal lives in the wild may be crucially important for effective conservation of threatened species.

The red brocket deer Mazama americana Erxleben, 1777 is considered a polyphyletic complex of cryptic species with wide chromosomal divergence. Evidence indicates that the observed chromosomal divergences result in reproductive isolation.

Cranial arterial patterns of the alpaca (Camelidae: Vicugna pacos) [PDF]
Artiodactyl cranial arterial patterns deviate significantly from the standard mammalian pattern, most notably in the possession of a structure called the carotid rete (CR)—a subdural arterial meshwork that is housed within the cavernous venous sinus ...

Convergent evolution is an important sector of evolutionary biology. High-altitude environments are one of the extreme environments for animals, especially in the Qinghai Tibet Plateau, driving the inquiry of whether, under broader phylogeny, high ...

Approach of molecular technique to identify Artiodactyls based on mitochondrial D-loop polymorphism [PDF]
In recent year species of Artiodactyla have suffered rather decrease in populations as result of poaching. In many cases detecting the organs and tissues obtained from arrested poachers is not possible visually therefore it makes difficult to affirm the ...

Geometric morphometrics of mandibles for dietary differentiation of Bovidae (Mammalia: Artiodactyla)
The mammalian family Bovidae has been widely studied in ecomorphological research, with important applications to paleoecological and paleohabitat reconstructions.
