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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

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 ...

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
