Conservation of Chromosomal Location of Nucleolus Organizer in American Marsupials (Didelphidae) [PDF]

Genetica, 2003
The distribution and expression of nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) were analyzed in seven species of marsupials representative of the three karyotypes (2n = 14, 18 and 22) found in the American family Didelphidae. Analyses comprised silver-staining of NORs and fluorescence in situ hybridization with an rDNA probe.

Modelling marsupial mastication: The biomechanical bite model of the Linnaeus's mouse opossum Marmosa murina (Marsupialia, Didelphidae). [PDF]

J Anat
The marsupial masticatory apparatus has rarely been studied until recently, mainly in Australasian species. We therefore reconstructed the maximum bite forces of the South American Linnaeus's mouse opossum Marmosa murina using in vivo bites, specimen dissections, and 3D static equilibrium of the jaw muscles.

Patrón de actividad de Chironectes minimus (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) en ecosistemas periurbanos (Valle de Aburrá-Colombia), con anotaciones sobre su distribución altitudinal

Mammalogy Notes, 2021
La Chucha de Agua, Chironectes minimus, es quizás uno de los marsupiales más crípticos en el Neotrópico. A pesar de que cuenta con registros puntuales sobre su presencia a lo largo de su distribución, sus reportes son escasos en ecosistemas circundantes ...

Evolution, divergence, and convergence in the mandibles of opossums (Didelphidae, Didelphimorphia). [PDF]

Curr Zool, 2023
Abstract Didelphid marsupials are considered a morphologically unspecialized group with a generalist diet that includes vertebrates, invertebrates, and plant matter. While cranium and scapula variation has already been examined within Didelphidae, variation in mandible shape, usually associated with diet or phylogeny in other mammalian ...

Androlaelaps marmosops (Acari: Laelapidae), a new species associated with the mouse opossum, Marmosops incanus (Lund, 1840) in the Atlantic Forest of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2001
Androlaelaps marmosops, a new species of laelapid mite, is described from the pelage of the mouse opossum, Marmosops incanus (Lund, 1840) (Mammalia: Didelphidae), in two areas of Atlantic Forest of Rio de Janeiro State. Measurements and illustrations are

Gross Anatomy and Approach to the Humerus and Femur in the White-Eared Opossum (Didelphis albiventris). [PDF]

Anat Histol Embryol
ABSTRACT The white‐eared opossum (Didelphis albiventris) is a Neotropical marsupial that readily adapts to urban environments. Due to its presence in anthropogenic habitats, this species is frequently exposed to vehicle collisions and dog attacks. Such trauma often results in long bone fractures, with humeral and femoral fractures being common in ...

Thylamys pallidior (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) [PDF]

Mammalian Species, 2010
Abstract Thylamys pallidior (O. Thomas, 1902) is a didelphid marsupial commonly called the white-bellied fat-tailed mouse opossum. A small mouse opossum, with tricolored pelage and a white venter, it has a seasonally incrassated tail, where fat deposits, primarily at the tail base, function in food storage.
