Herein, besides describing this event, we reviewed other evidence of vertebrate consumption by agoutis. Most of the studies describing this behaviour have been carried out in captivity. The preyed animals included birds and small rodents, which were sometimes killed by agoutis. This pattern suggests that this is not an anomalous behaviour for the genus, reflecting its omnivorous habits. This behaviour can be a physiologically sound feeding strategy, so new studies should focus on the temporal variation in the consumption of this resource, possibly related to food scarcity periods or to reproductive seasons, when the need for high-quality food tends to increase. Keywords: diet, Rodentia, zoophagy, carrion.

They are found only in tropical and subtropical zone forests of Central and South America. Of the two recognized species, the larger, Oryzomys (Oecomys) concolor, occurs in northern Colombia. The author collected 27 specimens from six localities during his 1941-43 tenure of the Walter Rathbone Bacon Traveling Scholarship and 38 specimens, including six of the smaller species, Oryzomys (Oecomys) bicolor, in other parts of Colombia while conducting the Chicago Natural History Museum-Colombian Zoological Expedi- tion (1949-52).

Comparative Cytogenetics 11(4): 833–892. https://doi. org/10.3897/CompCytogen.v11i4.19925 Abstract Rodents constitute one of the most diversified mammalian orders. Due to the morphological similarity in many of the groups, their taxonomy is controversial. Karyotype information proved to be an important tool for distinguishing some species because some of them are species-specific. Additionally, rodents can be an excellent model for chromosome evolution studies since many rearrangements have been described in this group.This work brings a review of cytogenetic data of Brazilian rodents, with information about diploid and fundamental numbers, polymorphisms, and geographical distribution.

  • Matses Indian Rainforest Habitat Classification and Mammalian Diversity in Amazonian Peru
    Journal of Ethnobiology 20(1): 1-36 Summer 2000 MATSES INDIAN RAINFOREST HABITAT CLASSIFICATION AND MAMMALIAN DIVERSITY IN AMAZONIAN PERU DAVID W. FLECK! Department ofEveilltioll, Ecology, alld Organismal Biology Tile Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 43210-1293 JOHN D. HARDER Oepartmeut ofEvolution, Ecology, and Organismnl Biology Tile Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 43210-1293 ABSTRACT.- The Matses Indians of northeastern Peru recognize 47 named rainforest habitat types within the G61vez River drainage basin. By combining named vegetative and geomorphological habitat designations, the Matses can distinguish 178 rainforest habitat types. The biological basis of their habitat classification system was evaluated by documenting vegetative ch<lracteristics and mammalian species composition by plot sampling, trapping, and hunting in habitats near the Matses village of Nuevo San Juan. Highly significant (p<:O.OOI) differences in measured vegetation structure parameters were found among 16 sampled Matses-recognized habitat types. Homogeneity of the distribution of palm species (n=20) over the 16 sampled habitat types was rejected. Captures of small mammals in 10 Matses-rc<:ognized habitats revealed a non-random distribution in species of marsupials (n=6) and small rodents (n=13). Mammal sighlings and signs recorded while hunting with the Matses suggest that some species of mammals have a sufficiently strong preference for certain habitat types so as to make hunting more efficient by concentrating search effort for these species in specific habitat types. Differences in vegetation structure, palm species composition, and occurrence of small mammals demonstrate the ecological relevance of Matses-rccognized habitat types. Key words: Amazonia, habitat classification, mammals, Matses, rainforest. RESUMEN.- Los nalivos Matslis del nordeste del Peru reconacen 47 tipos de habitats de bosque lluvioso dentro de la cuenca del rio Galvez.

  • Northern Ecuador, 2010
    Northern Ecuador, February 13th ʹ March 5h 2010 This was mainly a birding trip made by myself, Steven De Saeger and Filiep T͛Jollyn, but we all have an interest in all kinds of animals. This was also one of my last trips without a decent camera, so the few pictures in this report were all taken with a compact camera. The highlight of the trip in fact was one of the triggers for me to buy a decent camera͙ Most of the report will be some short notes about which species were seen where (I wrote this more than four years later, so I don͛t recall all details about trails etc. ʹ a good lesson to myself: don͛t wait too long to write a report!). Saturday February 13th 2010 Filiep and I flew in via Atlanta, and Steven from Madrid. Upon arriving in Atlanta, we experienced a huge snow storm, with many flights being delayed or even cancelled. Fortunately, after waiting for some hours, our flight left with a delay of about 5 hours. We met Steven and our guide for the first day at the airport well after midnight, and quickly set off towards Pululahua Crater. This night drive resulted in the first mammal of the trip, a Tapiti. The rest of the day I got a first impression of birding in South America, but no more mammals were seen. Sunday February 14th 2010 An early drive to the airport, for a short flight over the Andes, brought us to Coca, from where we would be taken to the Amazon.
