Fleas and lesions in armadillo osteoderms. [PDF]
Study of lesions caused by flea's ‘bites’ in the bones on the backs of armadillos show that they are actually made by the host's own osteoclasts, not by the flea's own masticatory apparatus. Panels (a, c, e) are reconstructions from high‐contrast resolution X‐Ray Microtomography and (b, d, f) backscattered electron mode scanning electron microscopy ...

The fetomaternal interface in the placenta of three species of armadillos (Eutheria, Xenarthra, Dasypodidae). [PDF]
Background Placental characters vary among Xenarthra, one of four supraordinal clades of Eutheria. Armadillos are known for villous, haemochorial placentas similar to humans. Only the nine-banded armadillo has been well studied so far.
