Annotations on the taxonomy of the opossums (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) of Honduras

Mammalia, 2022
AbstractInformation about opossums in Honduras has been scarce. Although there have been sporadic records of species, it was not clear which and how many species were occurring in the country because of taxonomic discussions and the group being understudied.

The chromosomes of Metachirus nudicaudatus (Marsupialia : Didelphidae)

Australian Journal of Zoology, 1973
A karyologic study of M. nudicaudatus, carried out on three females and five males, shows a chromosome number of 14, with apparent lack of dimorphism in the sex chromosomes. Nevertheless, the heterochromatin staining technique reveals the Y chromosome to be fully heteropycnotic. The meiotic chromosome has a sex vesicle at the pachytene stage.

The chromosomes of the Didelphidae (Marsupialia) and their evolutionary significance

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1977
One hundred and seventy-seven specimens of American didelphids, representing 9 genera and 22 species have been studied for their chromosomal constitution. Didelphids are very conservative in chromosomal complements. All of the studied species can be sorted into one of three kinds of karyotypes: 2n= 14 (three species of Didelphis, one of Lutreolina, two

Breeding of Philander frenata (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae) in captivity

Laboratory Animals, 1998
Data on the reproductive biology and laboratory management of Philander frenata are presented here. Sensory contact before pairing increased breeding success and reduced aggression between pairs. Gestation period was 13–14 days, with a post-lactation oestrous. Births occurred only between August and February.

Cytogenetic analysis of some Brazilian marsupials (Didelphidae: Marsupialia)

Canadian Journal of Genetics and Cytology, 1986
Three species of marsupials from the Amazon region (Marmosa cinerea, Caluromys lanatus, and Didelphis marsupialis) and two from the region of São Paulo (Didelphis marsupialis and Didelphis albiventris) were studied. The G-banding pattern of the species with 2n = 14 (M. cinerea and C.

Form, Function and Evolution of the Skull of Didelphid Marsupials (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae)

Journal of Mammalian Evolution, 2020
Although didelphid marsupials are considered to have a conservative body shape, they show a considerable amount of size variation. They also have different diets (from frugivore to animalivore), but none of the species are specialized. Didelphid marsupials also have a certain degree of specialization in vertical habitat use, from ground-dwellers to ...

Use of zygodactylous grasp by Caluromys philander (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae)

Mammalian Biology, 2010
The present report aims to quantify the use of zygodactylous (opposability of digits II to III) grasping in relation to positional modes and support size and orientation, in the highly arboreal, walking/climbing woolly opossum, Caluromys philander. For this purpose, four captive adult C.
