Range extension of Northern Naked-tailed Armadillo, Cabassous centralis Miller, 1899 (Mammalia, Cingulata, Chlamyphoridae), in Belize [PDF]

Check List, 2018
Little is known about the Northern Naked-tailed Armadillo, Cabassous centralis (Miller, 1899). Here we present a new record of C. centralis in the Maya Mountain Massif of Belize, from camera-trap surveys covering an area of 200 km2 conducted yearly ...

Prevalence of Mycobacterium leprae in armadillos in Brazil: A systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2020
Understanding the prevalence of M. leprae infection in armadillos is important because of evidence from Brazil and other countries of an association between contact with armadillos and the development of Hansen's Disease (leprosy).

Divergence Across Niche Dimensions Reveals Species' Ecological Roles. [PDF]

Ecol Lett
Natural history gaps hinder our understanding of species' ecological roles and their contributions to ecosystem processes. Using an integrative framework, we analysed multiple niche dimensions of co‐occurring xenarthran insectivores, revealing divergent trophic, spatial and temporal patterns that reflect distinct ecological roles. Our results challenge

An oversimplification of physiological principles leads to flawed macroecological analyses. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2019
Macrophysiological analyses are useful to predict current and future range limits and improve our understanding of endotherm macroecology, but such analyses too often rely on oversimplifications of endothermic thermoregulatory and energetic physiology, which lessens their applicability.

Identifying hotspots and priority areas for xenarthran research and conservation

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 12, Page 2778-2790, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Limited funds for conservation and research require the development of prioritization schemes. Traditionally, biodiversity metrics were used to delineate priority areas; however, a growing realization emphasizes that logistic factors should be also considered.
