Genetic and morphometric variability in Caiman latirostris (broad‐snouted caiman), Reptilia, Alligatoridae

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological Genetics and Physiology, 2009
AbstractCaiman latirostris (broad‐snouted caiman) is a crocodilian species from Argentina subject of management plans. The goal of this study was estimating the distribution of genetic variability using RAPD markers and quantitative traits in wild populations of C. latirostris from Santa Fe province, Argentina.

Host species and age‐specific variation on Hepatozoon prevalence and its effect on body condition in two Neotropical crocodiles

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.
Many populations of species belonging to the order Crocodilia are threatened due to illegal trafficking, indiscriminate hunting, and habitat loss and degradation affecting crocodilian health and parasitic load. Although several studies have revealed that crocodiles, caimans, and alligators are frequently infected by Hepatozoon spp., the results from ...

Osteology and cranial musculature of Caiman latirostris (crocodylia: Alligatoridae)

Journal of Morphology, 2011
AbstractCaiman latirostris Daudin is one of the extant species of Caimaninae alligatorids characterized taxonomically only by external morphological features. In the present contribution, we describe the cranial osteology and myology of this species and its morphological variation. Several skull dissections and comparisons with other caimans were made.

The osteohistology of Orthosuchus stormbergi using synchrotron radiation microcomputed tomography

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 3-4, Page 587-607, September/October 2025.
The osteohistology of Orthosuchus stormbergi is described for the first time. The primary bone tissue was lamellar bone. It had relatively thick bone walls, possibly indicating an aquatic lifestyle. Orthosuchus was a small bodied adult reaching a maximum body mass of about 1.2 kg.

Osteohistological signal from the smallest known phytosaur femur reveals slow growth and new insights into the evolution of growth in Archosauria

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 3-4, Page 556-575, September/October 2025.
The paucity of small, skeletally immature individuals representing the earliest ontogenetic stages of extinct archosaurs complicates our understanding of the growth dynamics within and between species. The opportune finding of the smallest phytosaur femora reveals slow growth, a surprising signal considering that larger phytosaurs in North America have
