Evolution of the axial skeleton in armadillos (Mammalia, Dasypodidae)

Mammalian Biology, 2010
Intraspecific and interspecific variation in cervical, thoracic, and lumbar region of the vertebral column of Dasypodidae were examined in a phylogenetic framework. The number of vertebrae for each region were recorded for 86 specimens and metric data for each vertebra (centrum length, high, and width) were recorded for 72 specimens, including eight of

Clinical Disorders in Armadillos (Dasypodidae, Edentata) in Captivity

Journal of Veterinary Medicine, Series B, 1997
SummaryThe major health problems found in 113 armadillos are presented and correlated with management in captivity. The most common of 217 recorded clinical disorders involved injury (28.5%), digestive system (17.9%), respiratory system (15.2%), nutritional deficiency (13.3%), skin problems (3.6%), septicaemia (1.8%), nervous system (1.3%), urinary ...

Micromorphology of osteoderms in Dasypodidae (Cingulata, Mammalia): Characterization and 3D‐reconstructions

Journal of Morphology, 2019
AbstractOsteoderms are present in a variety of extinct and extant vertebrates, but among mammals, the presence of osteoderms is essentially restricted to armadillos (Cingulata, Dasypodidae). Osteoderms have been proposed to exhibit a variety of functionalities in Dasypodidae, mainly protection and thermoregulation, and they have been considered as one ...

Body temperature of the armadilloChaetophractus villosus(mammalia, dasypodidae)

Archives Internationales de Physiologie, de Biochimie et de Biophysique, 1994
Body temperature of the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus (n = 17) was studied during a period of 15 days. Deep rectal temperature (TB) was recorded at 9 am, 1 pm and 5 pm. Temperature in the laboratory was kept between 24.6 degrees C and 26.0 degrees C.

Structure and function in armadillo limbs (Mammalia: Xenarthra: Dasypodidae)

Journal of Zoology, 2002
AbstractArmadillos are a very diverse group ranging from non‐fossorial Tolypeutini through to the powerful diggers like the giant armadillo Priodontes maximus to the totally subterranean Chlamyphorini. A previous study demonstrated a close relationship between the relative length of the olecranon of the ulna (index of fossorial ability, IFA) and the ...

New Data on Armadillos (Xenarthra: Dasypodidae) for Central Patagonia, Argentina [PDF]

Edentata, 2010
Abstract Armadillos represent the most diverse family of xenarthrans. Although many studies have been done on these mammals, several topics, such as their local distribution, natural history, behavioral ecology and conservation, remain poorly known. Chaetophractus villosus and Zaedyus pichiy are the most common armadillos in extra-Andean Patagonia, a ...

Haemostatic mechanisms of the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus (Xenarthra, Dasypodidae)

Comparative Clinical Pathology, 2005
Haemostatic mechanisms in humans are formed by two activation pathways, named tissular factor pathway and contact system pathway, and a common pathway, that promotes the formation of the fibrin clot. These mechanisms have also been identified in other mammals. In this work we evaluate their presence in the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus, a mammal of

Fibrinolytic system of the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus (Xenarthra, Dasypodidae)

Comparative Clinical Pathology, 2008
The fibrinolytic mechanism in the armadillo Chaetophractus villosus (Mammalia, Xenarthra, Dasypodidae) quite unknown until now was studied. Results were compared with those corresponding to healthy adult human beings. Whole blood lysis time and diluted blood lysis time were not detectable in armadillos.
