Despite the advances in the techniques for researching arboreal small mammals, detailed ecological data, such as habitat use patterns, are practically nonexistent for many species.

Micromammals, climate change and human impact: How much changed the communities of southern South America in the last 500 years? [PDF]
Diversas evidencias sugieren que la actual configuración de las comunidades -i.e., riqueza (número de especies) y diversidad (distribución de la abundancia de especies)- de micromamíferos en el sur de América del Sur se habría generado en el período ...

The skin development in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica) has been examined using histological, morphometric, and μCT methods. During a long period of postnatal development, the structural differentiation of the skin results in a functional shift from transcutaneous gas exchange to thermoregulation in later life. Abstract Marsupials

The Serra do Amolar, located in the Brazilian Pantanal, is a crucial but understudied area for biodiversity conservation. Through camera traps, we recorded 29 mammal species, including three rodent species documented for the first time in the area: Cavia aperea, Cuniculus paca, and Holochilus chacarius.

Roads increase wildlife mortality and isolate populations. This study monitored the movements and abundance of small mammals in areas with and without wildlife passages along BR‐101 in Rio de Janeiro for 12 months. Our results show that although many mammals avoid roads, some species use these passages, increasing population connectivity.

EVOLUTION OF SCAPULA SIZE AND SHAPE IN DIDELPHID MARSUPIALS (DIDELPHIMORPHIA: DIDELPHIDAE) [PDF]
The New World family Didelphidae, the basal lineage within marsupials, is commonly viewed as morphologically conservative, yet includes aquatic, terrestrial, scansorial, and arboreal species. Here, I quantitatively estimated the existing variability in size and shape of the Didelphidae scapula (1076 specimens from 56 species) using geometric ...

This study describes Marmosops incanus and Didelphis aurita using their tails to carry plant material, probably for nesting. This is the first record of this behavior for M. incanus and for the tribe Thylamyini.
