Abstract

Abstract Didelphis aurita is an abundant South American didelphid. Chromatic disorders are rare and scarcely known in marsupials. We report and describe the occurrence of xanthochromism (yellowish coloration) in D. aurita , being the first record of this anomaly for opossums. The emergence of the xanthochromism correlated with the anthropogenic stress in urban-sylvatic interface suggests that chromatic disorders may serve as useful bioindicators of the health of wildlife in disturbed environments.

大耳负鼠部分黄色性的首次记录(负鼠科，负鼠科)

摘要:美洲Didelphis aurita是一种丰富的南美Didelphis。色盲在有袋动物中是罕见的，几乎不为人所知。我们报道并描述了黄色现象的发生，这是负鼠中首次出现黄色现象。在城市-森林界面中，与人为胁迫相关的色变现象的出现表明，在受干扰的环境中，色变障碍可以作为野生动物健康的有用生物指标。
