Biology, conservation and status of the Amazonian Manatee Trichechus inunguis
Mammal Review, 1994 AbstractThe Amazonian Manatee Trichechus inunguis (Natterer, 1883) is the only exclusively freshwater sirenian and the smallest of the living species. Its inability to reduce peripheral heat loss limits its distribution to tropical waters. The species is endemic to the Amazonian region, being distributed throughout the Amazon basin, occurring mainly in

The Primary Structure of the Hemoglobin of the Brazilian Manatee(Trichechus inunguis,Sirenia)
Biological Chemistry Hoppe-Seyler, 1988 The hemoglobin of the Brazilian Manatee (Trichechus inunguis, Sirenia) consists of one component. We present the primary structures of the alpha- and beta-chains which have been separated by chromatography on carboxymethyl-cellulose CM-52. The sequences have been determined by automatic Edman degradation with the film technique, using the native chains,

Metabolism and Respiration of the Amazonian Manatee (Trichechus inunguis)
Physiological Zoology, 1980A study was made of respiration and metabolism in Amazonian manatees (Trichechus inunguis) weighing between 20 and 170 kg. These animals had a low metabolic rate, 0.36 times that predicted by Kleiber's 1975 equation for placental mammals. They also had a low breathing frequency and minute ventilation, and high O₂ extraction and CO₂ output.

The Amazonian manatee (Trichechus inunguis) is endemic in the Amazonian basin and is the only exclusively fresh water sirenian. Historically hunted on a large scale, this species is now considered endangered, and studies on the reproductive physiology are critical for the improvement of reproductive management of captive and wild populations of ...
