Femur and third metatarsal (MT3) data for South American native ungulates analyzed in this study.
Species are grouped by family within one of three larger clades: Litopterns (Litop), toxodont notoungulates (N:Tox), and typothere notoungulates (N:Typ).

Generally, LED headlights had neutral or beneficial effects on wildlife responses, suggesting they could reduce collisions given the increased illumination levels they provide drivers. Additionally, our results support previous research indicating increased frontal vehicle illumination can reduce dangerous encounters with wildlife. Our findings suggest

ABSTRACT Motivation Given that land use is a major driver of biodiversity loss worldwide, it is key to understand how different land use types and management practices affect biodiversity. Existing global databases on biodiversity responses to land use generally distinguish only broad land use types, focus on a wide taxonomic coverage at the expense of

Understanding Ancient Moose Populations in the Southern Rocky Mountains
ABSTRACT Moose (Alces alces) are an iconic symbol of contemporary Rocky Mountain ecosystems, and their growing abundance in Colorado and other portions of the Southern Rockies has inspired debate around their regional prehistory prior to their 20th century translocation. The Early Holocene biogeography of moose in North America is poorly characterised,

Critic analysis of regression equation models used to associate isolated postcranial bones and tooth remains: the case of the South American Paleogene ungulates [PDF]
The taxonomy of fossil mammals is mostly based on dental characters as a consequence of the better preservation of teeth when comparing with other body parts.

Insights into South American Native Ungulate and Caviomorph Paleobiology [PDF]
In the five chapters of this dissertation, I investigate the paleobiology of SouthAmerican native ungulates (SANUs) and caviomorph rodents. Although these studies involve different taxonomic groups and employ disparate methods, most rely on previously ...
