Variation of mammal diversity along a gradient separated by geographic barriers within the Andes of Perú [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The protection of many mammal species is restrained by anthropogenic pressures. For this reason, using camera traps is critical to learning about the characteristics of their populations and communities, especially when geographic barriers limit their ...

From Hot to Cold Spots: Climate Change is Projected to Modify Diversity Patterns of Small Mammals in a Biodiversity Hotspot

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 5, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate change represents one of the main threats to global biodiversity, and such alterations are expected to induce shifts in distribution ranges and diversity patterns. We evaluate if protected areas and forest remnants in the Atlantic Forest in South America (AF) are projected to ensure the taxonomic diversity (TD) and phylogenetic ...

Down to earth: therian mammals became more terrestrial towards the end of the Cretaceous

open access: yesPalaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Abstract The end Cretaceous extinctions had a profound effect on mammalian diversity, especially on metatherians (marsupials and their extinct relatives). Could mammalian substrate preference have influenced differential survival patterns? The plant fossil record shows changing angiosperm leaf anatomy during the last ten million years of the Cretaceous

The Araguaia River as an Important Biogeographical Divide for Didelphid Marsupials in Central Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The riverine barrier model suggests that rivers play a significant role in separating widespread organisms into isolated populations. In this study, we used a comparative approach to investigate the phylogeography of 6 didelphid marsupial species in ...

A new hyladelphine marsupial (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae) from cave deposits of northern Brazil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Based on very small upper and lower molars recovered from the Quaternary limestone caves in the State of Tocantins, northern Brazil, we describe a new genus and species of a didelphimorphian marsupial.

Phylogenetic analyses of Postcranial skeletal Morphology in Didelphid Marsupials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this study I provide a phylogenetic hypothesis for didelphid Marsupials including a suite of 114 postcranial characters. The postcranial evidence was cladistically analyzed separately and concatenated with a nonmolecular data set previously published (

Karyotype characterization and nucleolar organizer regions of marsupial species (Didelphidae) from areas of Cerrado and Atlantic Forest in Brazil

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2008
The karyotypes of 23 specimens belonging to 16 species from nine genera of Brazilian marsupials (family Didelphidae) were studied. The animals were collected in eight localities of Cerrado or Atlantic Forest biomes in the states of Goiás, Tocantins ...
