Small mammals of the Estação Ecológica de Bananal, southeastern Atlantic Forest, Brazil, with description of a new species of Brucepattersonius (Rodentia, Sigmodontinae) [PDF]
Arquivos de Zoologia, 2019 The Atlantic Forest harbors an impressive diversity of nonvolant small mammals. Despite having been the target of many ecological and taxonomical studies in the last decades, this group is still poorly known in several aspects – basic information on ...

Journal of Mammalogy, 2017 Two KP1(–) strains of Trypanosoma rangeli (SC-58, SC-61) isolated from the wild rodent Phyllomys dasythrix from Santa Catarina (Brazil) were compared with some KP1(+) reference stocks from different Latin America countries, and also with Trypanosoma ...

Phylogeny and biogeography of Phyllomys (Rodentia: Echimyidae) reveal a new species from the Cerrado and suggest Miocene connections of the Amazon and Atlantic Forest [PDF]
Journal of Mammalogy, 2018 Phyllomys is the most species-rich genus among spiny tree rats of the family Echimyidae and includes members widely distributed throughout the Atlantic Forest of South America. Among recognized species recovered in previous studies, 4 lineages are unnamed and their taxonomic distinctness needs further investigation.

Evolutionary diversification ofPhyllomys(Rodentia: Echimyidae) in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest [PDF]
Journal of Mammalogy, 2011 Tree rats of the genus Phyllomys are arboreal rodents endemic to the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Previous phylogenetic analysis of mitochondrial DNA resulted in a basal polytomy of species in this genus, suggesting rapid speciation. Here we expanded this data matrix by adding specimens and both nuclear and mitochondrial genes. We found 2 basal clades: P.

Zootaxa, 2007 The Bahian giant tree rat Phyllomys unicolor (Wagner) was described from a single specimen collected in the early nineteeth century, and it has not been recorded since. It was included on the Brazilian endangered species list, and considered extinct by some. Here we report the rediscovery of P.

Transitions between Andean and Amazonian centers of endemism in the radiation of some arboreal rodents. [PDF]
BMC Evol Biol, 2013 Background: The tropical Andes and Amazon are among the richest regions of endemism for mammals, and each has given rise to extensive in situ radiations. Various animal lineages have radiated ex situ after colonizing one of these regions from the other:

Evolution and systematics of the Atlantic Tree Rats, genus Phyllomys (Rodentia, Echimyidae), with description of two new species [PDF]
, 2003 The Atlantic tree rats, genus Phyllomys, are arboreal echimyids found in eastern Brazil. Species of Phyllomys are of conservation interest because they are poorly known, have restricted geographic ranges, and are endemic to the Atlantic forest, one of the most threatened ecosystems in the world. Here I examine the diversity of the genus Phyllomys using
