Dental anomalies inCaluromys(Marsupialia, Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae, Caluromyinae) and a reassessment of malformations in New World marsupials (Didelphimorphia, Microbiotheria and Paucituberculata)

Mammalia, 2017
AbstractDental anomalies have been documented in almost all mammalian orders, and include supernumerary or missing teeth, teeth with aberrant occlusal surfaces and/or roots and teeth in unusual positions. Our objectives were the description and categorization of dental anomalies in all species of the genusCaluromys.

A new species of Philander Brisson, 1762 (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

Mammalian Biology, 2008
A new species of Philander, known from two localities in Bolivia and one in Peru, is described. The new species is externally similar to sympatric populations of P. opossum, but both have several differences, such as ventral pelage color, nasal morphology, condition of the zygomatic arches, and rostral tympanic process of the petrosal.

Leishmania spp. in Didelphis albiventris and Micoureus paraguayanus (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) of Brazil

Veterinary Parasitology, 2011
Leishmaniasis is kept in nature by the participation of several animal species. This study evaluated the presence of Leishmania spp. in skin samples of free-ranging marsupials Micoureus paraguayanus (n=95) and Didelphis albiventris (n=191), captured in Morro do Diabo State Park and in sections of its surrounding forest, in the region of Pontal do ...

Taxonomy and distribution of the Brazilian species of Thylamys (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) / La taxonomie et la distribution des espèces brésiliennes du genre Thylamys (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae)

Mammalia, 2006
AbstractThe recent increase in mammal inventories and the widespread use of pitfall traps as a major capture method in Brazil have increased the number of non-volant small mammal specimens in scientific collections, providing new information on natural history, geographical range, and taxonomic status of many marsupials and rodents.

American Opossums Order Didelphimorphia, Family Didelphidae

2009
Abstract All marsupials were formerly considered to belong to the order Marsupialia; however, this large group has recently been split into 7 orders. New World opossums are repre- sented by 3 orders and Australian marsupials by 4 orders. The Didelphimorphia contains a single family, which includes all Central American opossums.

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.

Reproduction ofDidelphis marsupialis (Didelphimorphia: Didelphidae) in the Venezuelan Andes

Acta Theriologica, 2006
The reproductive cycle of the common opossumDidelphis marsupialis Linnaeus, 1758, inhabiting an agricultural area in the Venezuelan Andes was studied by live-trapping for 18 months (from July 1998 to December 1999). Trap success was slightly higher in the less humid months.
