Eptesicus diminutus Osgood, 1915 is the smallest species of subgenus found in South America. It has a discontinuous distribution, with northern populations Colombia and Venezuela, southern Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay. We reviewed specimens assigned to E. compared them these from populations. Based on morphologic, morphometric, molecular analyses, we support recognition as new species. This distributed Llanos Orinoco region Venezuela (and likely Guyana). sp. nov. morphologically...
In Colombia, seven species of small-eared shrews the genus Cryptotis Pomel, 1848 have been reported, and five them endemic to country. Here, we present first confirmed record from Colombia niausa Moreno Cárdenas & Albuja, 2014, a that was previously known only nine localities in Ecuador. The Colombian comes Departamento de Nariño, extreme southwestern it is supported by morphology cytochrome- b gene evidence. This increases eight number Colombia.
Sarcoptic mange is a highly contagious, worldwide disease that affects the skin of mammals, including humans. It caused by mite Sarcoptes scabiei, however, information available in wild mammal populations world, and particularly Colombia limited. Here, we document new case sarcoptic an Andean porcupine (Coendou quichua) from region Colombia. We morphologically molecularly confirmed as S. scabiei documented histopathology associated with scabies, show different stages life cycle samples. Our...
Abstract In Colombia, 217 bat species have been recorded of which at least 22 occur in Andean and sub-Andean ecosystems. To evaluate the richness bats an elevational range Municipality Manizales, Central Andes we performed surveys supplemented with incidental captures from 2018 to 2022 different urban peri-urban areas, reviewed specimens biological collections. We evaluated perception knowledge that local people about using online survey. reported 33 study area. Phyllostomidae showed highest...
El conocimiento de los reptiles en Colombia es aún incompleto, aunque el país alberga una alta diversidad este grupo. En últimos años, las colecciones regionales han contribuido a llenar vacíos información sobre la biogeografía, variación intra e interespecífica y sistemática diversos grupos. Presentamos aquí 613 registros depositados Colección Reptiles del Museo Historia Natural Universidad Caldas. La mayoría (527) proceden departamento Caldas, pero se cuenta con 15 departamentos más. orden...
El conocimiento de la riqueza mamíferos Colombia se ha fundamentado en ejemplares depositados colecciones nacionales y extranjeras otros que hacen parte sensores pasivos muestreo. Sin embargo, los últimos años, las regionales están llenando vacíos información, complementan datos disponibles sobre distribución, variación intra e interespecífica proporcionan muestras para análisis filogenéticos. Presentamos información 2112 registros Colección Mamíferos del Museo Historia Natural Universidad...
Abstract The genus Molossops includes two species that are restricted to South America: neglectus and temminckii . smaller dog-faced dwarf is distributed from Colombia Argentina has a wide morphological variation vocal plasticity. In Colombia, this remains poorly known. To fill distributional gaps, we present novel records Arauca, Atlántico, Bolívar, Córdoba, Huila departments. We also an analysis of the morphometric in America using Principal Component Analyses. These show external cranial...
The Department of Caldas, Central Andes Colombia, has two National Natural Parks protecting strategic Andean ecosystems. However, the available information on mammals in these protected areas not been compiled or updated recently. Here, we present an inventory Selva de Florencia Park. To construct inventory, used historical (museum vouchers) and recent records obtained during field activities over last 20 years. We several trapping methods including Sherman Tomahawk traps, mist nets, camera...
Dasyprocta azarae Lichtenstein, 1823 is currently distributed in Argentina, Brazil, and Paraguay, with controversial records Bolivia. Recent using trail cameras have expanded its distribution the Chaco region of but remains unclear because morphological similarity to species Bolivia northwestern Argentina. We present an updated map D. based on review specimens biological collections literature. Our results show that four biomes, across 11 ecoregions, has extent occurrence 2,512,985 km 2 .
