Allometry of reproduction in broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2001 In the present study regression equations are established between broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) captive reproductive females snout-vent length (SVL) and body mass (BM) and the following clutch characteristics: egg mass, egg "length" (maximal ...

Development of the chondrocranium of two caiman species, Caiman latirostris and Caiman yacare [PDF]
Journal of Anatomy, 2019 AbstractLittle is known about the embryonic development and variation of the chondrocranium in Crocodylia and there are no works on any Caiman species. Due to the importance of cranial features in the systematics of this clade, investigating the development of the skull in embryonic stages is essential.

Macrogeographic genetic variation in broad‐snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological Genetics and Physiology, 2008 AbstractBroad‐snouted caiman's (Caiman latirostris) geographic distribution comprises one of the widest latitudinal ranges among all crocodilians. In this study we analyzed the relationship between geographic distance (along the species latitudinal range) and genetic differentiation using DNA microsatellite loci developed for C.

Osmoregulation by the broad-snouted caiman, Caiman latirostris , in estuarine habitat in southern Brazil [PDF]
Journal of Comparative Physiology B: Biochemical, Systemic, and Environmental Physiology, 1998 The broad-snouted caiman Caiman latirostris, of South America mostly frequents freshwater but occurs also in estuaries. Nothing of substance is known of its osmoregulatory physiology but, in the light of accumulating evidence that alligatorids lack specialised adaptations for life in hyperosmotic waters, we anticipated its physiology would be more ...

Distribution of populations of broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris, Daudin 1802, Alligatoridae) in the São Francisco River basin, Brazil Distribuição das populações de jacaré-do-papo-amarelo (Caiman latirostris, Daudin 1802, Alligatoridae) na bacia do Rio São Francisco, Brasil [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2010 We surveyed populations of the broad-snouted caiman, Caiman latirostris, throughout the São Francisco River basin, from Três Marias reservoir, State of Minas Gerais, to the river delta, at the boarder of Sergipe and Alagoas states.

New Mitogenomic Resources for the <i>Caiman yacare</i> (Daudin, 1802) From Bolivia. [PDF]
Ecol EvolNew mitochondrial genomes were generated to enhance the mitochondrial genetic resources available for Caiman yacare. Mitochondrial genomes of approximately 16 kb were obtained through genome skimming using Illumina sequencing technology. The assemblies revealed a composition typical of vertebrate mitogenomes, including 13 protein‐coding genes, 2 rRNA ...

Skeletal pathologies in extant crocodilians as a window into the paleopathology of fossil archosaurs. [PDF]
Anat Rec (Hoboken)Abstract Crocodilians, together with birds, are the only extant relatives to many extinct archosaur groups, making them highly important for interpreting paleopathological conditions in a phylogenetic disease bracketing model. Despite this, comprehensive data on osteopathologies in crocodilians remain scarce.

Cranial sexual discrimination in hatchling broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) [PDF]
Iheringia. Série Zoologia, 2007 Broad-snouted caiman (Caiman latirostris) hatchlings present a consistent sexual dimorphism in their cranium shape and size. Male hatchlings have smaller crania than females. Using multivariate statistical analyses it is possible to discriminate sex in broad-snouted caiman hatchlings by their cranial shape with a reasonable efficiency.
