Morphological comparison of the larynx and trachea of Chelonia mydas (Linnaeus, 1758), Caiman yacare (Daudin, 1802) and Caiman latirostris (Daudin, 1802) [PDF]
The larynx is in the lower respiratory tract and has the function of protecting the airways, controlling, and modulating breathing, assisting the circulatory system, and vocalizing. This study aims to describe the anatomy and histology of the skeleton of

Caiman yacare (Yacare Caiman): Triplets [PDF]
The Broadsnouted Caiman (Caiman latirostris) and Yacare Caiman (Caiman yacare) are the two crocodilian species that inhabit Argentina (Prado et al. 2012. Cuad. Herpetol. 26. Suppl 1:403– 410).

Hematology and Blood Biochemistry of Young Healthy Broad-Snouted Caimans (Caiman latirostris)
Abstract Caiman latirostris (Broad-Snouted Caiman) is widely distributed in wetlands and rivers of South America. Hematological and blood chemistry reference values are necessary for detecting the effects of environmental, infectious, parasitic, or toxicological stress on C. latirostris health.

Presence of red fire ants (Solenopsis invicta Buren) in broad-snouted Caiman (Caiman latirostris) nests [PDF]
The presence of Solenopsis invicta in Caiman latirostris nests is suspected to be a possible cause of death in caiman hatchlings, but this has not been documented within the native distribution of this ant. In crocodilian ranching programs, wild eggs are

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Histopathological description of an epidermoid cist in Caiman latirostris - case report [PDF]
Epidermoid cysts are rounded non-neoplastic lesions, sometimes ulcerated, diagnosed by histopathology, characterized by the inclusion of keratin in the dermis, surrounded by stratified squamous epithelium. Chronic skin trauma causes hyperkeratosis, which

Climatic Niche Modelling Reveals Limited Phylogenetic Niche Conservatism in New World Crocodylians
ABSTRACT Aim Phylogenetic niche conservatism, the tendency of closely related species to retain ancestral ecological traits, has gained considerable interest, yet the lack of integration across independent evaluation methods has hindered our understanding of whether niches are conserved or dynamic.

Abstract Notosuchian crocodylomorphs were predominantly active terrestrial predators, exhibiting a wide range of ecomorphological specializations and body sizes. Given that body size plays an important role in the life history of vertebrates, its accurate estimation for notosuchians is crucial for understanding macroevolutionary and macroecological ...
