Currently 67 species of bats are recognized for the fauna of Argentina. Notwithstanding the geographical records of the species are well documented, their distributional patterns on a national scale have not been studied so far. In this study, we analyze all the validated records, in order to identify patterns of species richness and distributional congruence. The highest species richness was located in the Paraná forest (northeast) and the Yungas forest (northwest), with a marked drop in richness in the latitudinal gradient. The coincidence of the geographical ranges of the species de ned a total of 47 consensus areas of distributional congruence, and each one was assigned to one of eight identi ed patterns: the Yungas, the northern sector of the Yungas (nested with the previous one), the northeast, a disjunct pattern that includes the northwest and northeast of the country, the Chaco region along with other surrounding regions, and the Patagonian region.

The tropical genus Heteromys includes 17 species that have undergone several taxonomic changes and have unclear interspecific limits. We compared the intraspecific, interspecific, and geographic variation in ten species of Heteromys using geometric morphometrics, and evaluated whether the genetic differences between the species were reflected in differences in cranial morphology. We digitized three cranial views and one mandibular view of 638 adult specimens, and performed morphometric analyses. Sexual variation and differences in cranial morphology were evaluated with analysis of variance, multivariate analysis of variance, and canonical variate analysis. Cranial differences were observed with deformation grids, and a cluster analysis was performed with Procrustes distances to compare with a phylogenetic tree. The geographic variation analyses were carried out using clusters based on physiographic regions. Only H. desmarestianus and H. irroratus presented sexual variation. Heteromys species showed differences between physiographic regions probably due to variation in abiotic factors, vegetation cover, and precipitation. Each species had a distinctive morphotype, with differences in their rostri, zygomatic arches, cranial vaults, occipitals, and foramina magna, as well as in the angular processes, condylar processes, and diastemas of the mandibles. The species clusters matched with clades previously identified by molecular markers. The specimens of one candidate species ( Heteromys sp.) showed unique morphometric characteristics that separated them from the other species.","PeriodicalId":39963,"journal":{"name":"Mastozoologia Neotropical","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47516546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Habitat use of Peale’s dolphin Lagenorhynchus australis in the Beagle Channel, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. Peale’s dolphin is one of the most common species of cetaceans in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina. However, limited information exists about the local population. In order to characterize the habitat use by Peale’s dolphin, land-based observations were carried out during a summer season. Behavioral patterns were studied in relation to tidal cycles and kelp forest, and the main activities displayed were determined. Foraging and resting were the most frequent behaviors observed. Dolphin’s behavior seems to be related to the tidal cycle and to its position relative to the kelp bed. This study provides data that can contribute to management plans of the austral marine ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":39963,"journal":{"name":"Mastozoologia Neotropical","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46053785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Diet of culpeo fox Lycalopex culpaeus (Molina, 1782) during the mega-drought of central Chile: role of cattle and evidence of a high trophic interaction between carnivorous mammals. Chile has experienced a strong drought, which has been sustained since 2010. In this context, we conducted a trophic study for Lycalopex culpaeus , in the Chilean Mediterranean area, during this extreme climatic event to analyze how this phenomenon of restriction in the availability of trophic resources affects the diet of these foxes. The analysis of feces allows us to observe that L. culpaeus based its diet on lagomorphs and on the use of cattle, probably dead. During the study there was no change in foxes activity. Another interesting aspect was the sustained presence of carnivorous mammals in the feces throughout the year; the latter supports what has been observed in other regions, in that interspecific kills are common among carnivorous mammals.","PeriodicalId":39963,"journal":{"name":"Mastozoologia Neotropical","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41697699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
