Richness, Endemism and Conservation of Sigmodontine Rodents in Argentina

Puerto Madryn, Chubut, Argentina. 2 División Mastozoología, Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales “Bernardino Rivadavia” Buenos Aires, Argentina. [Correspondence: Pablo Teta <[email protected]>] ABSTRACT. Sigmodontine rodents, with 86 genera and ~430 living species, constitute one of the most successful radiations of Neotropical mammals. In this contribution, we studied the distributional ranges of 108 sigmodontine species in Argentina. Our objectives were (i) to establish geographical patterns of species richness and endemism, and (ii) to evaluate the regional conservation status of these taxa. We constructed a minimum convex polygon for each species, using information from literature and biological collections. Individual maps were superimposed on a map of Argentina divided into cells of 25 km on each side. For each cell, we calculated the species rich- ness, which varied between 1 and 21 species, and its degree of endemism, which fluctuated between 0.001 and 3.28. There were 30 species of sigmodontine rodents distributed almost exclusively in Argentina, most of them restricted to forested areas (Southern Andean Yungas) or to arid and semiarid environments (High and Low Monte and Patagonian Steppe). Areas with high species richness and endemism scores corresponded grossly with the Southern Andean Yungas, the Humid Chaco plus the Paraná flooded savannas, the Alto Parana Atlantic forests plus the Araucaria moist forests, the High Monte and the ecotone between the Patagonian steppe and the Valdivian temperate forests. -
Diversity and Endemism in Tidal-Marsh Vertebrates
Studies in Avian Biology No. 32:32-53 DIVERSITY AND ENDEMISM IN TIDAL-MARSH VERTEBRATES RUSSELL GREENBERG AND JESúS E. MALDONADO Abstract. Tidal marshes are distributed patcliily, predominantly along the mid- to high-latitude coasts of the major continents. The greatest extensions of non-arctic tidal marshes are found along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of North America, but local concentrations can be found in Great Britain, northern Europe, northern Japan, northern China, and northern Korea, Argentina-Uruguay-Brazil, Australia, and New Zealand. We tallied the number of terrestrial vertebrate species that regularly occupy tidal marshes in each of these regions, as well as species or subspecies that are largely restricted to tidal marshes. In each of the major coastal areas we found 8-21 species of breeding birds and 13-25 species of terrestrial mammals. The diversity of tidal-marsh birds and mammals is highly inter-correlated, as is the diversity of species restricted to saltmarshes. These values are, in turn, correlated with tidal-marsh area along a coastline. We estimate approximately seven species of turtles occur in brackish or saltmarshes worldwide, but only one species is endemic and it is found in eastern North America. A large number of frogs and snakes occur opportunistically in tidal marshes, primarily in southeastern United States, particularly Florida. Three endemic snake taxa are restricted to tidal marshes of eastern North America as well. Overall, only in North America were we able to find documentation for multiple taxa of terrestrial vertebrates associated with tidal marshes. These include one species of mammal and two species of birds, one species of snake, and one species of turtle. -
A Global-Scale Evaluation of Mammalian Exposure and Vulnerability to Anthropogenic Climate Change
A Global-Scale Evaluation of Mammalian Exposure and Vulnerability to Anthropogenic Climate Change Tanya L. Graham A Thesis in The Department of Geography, Planning and Environment Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science (Geography, Urban and Environmental Studies) at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada March 2018 © Tanya L. Graham, 2018 Abstract A Global-Scale Evaluation of Mammalian Exposure and Vulnerability to Anthropogenic Climate Change Tanya L. Graham There is considerable evidence demonstrating that anthropogenic climate change is impacting species living in the wild. The vulnerability of a given species to such change may be understood as a combination of the magnitude of climate change to which the species is exposed, the sensitivity of the species to changes in climate, and the capacity of the species to adapt to climatic change. I used species distributions and estimates of expected changes in local temperatures per teratonne of carbon emissions to assess the exposure of terrestrial mammal species to human-induced climate change. I evaluated species vulnerability to climate change by combining expected local temperature changes with species conservation status, using the latter as a proxy for species sensitivity and adaptive capacity to climate change. I also performed a global-scale analysis to identify hotspots of mammalian vulnerability to climate change using expected temperature changes, species richness and average species threat level for each km2 across the globe. The average expected change in local annual average temperature for terrestrial mammal species is 1.85 oC/TtC. Highest temperature changes are expected for species living in high northern latitudes, while smaller changes are expected for species living in tropical locations. -

Rodent Diversity and Habitat Use in a Protected Area of Buenos Aires Province, Argentina
Revista Mexicana de Biodiversidad 83: 762-771, 2012 http://dx.doi.org/10.7550/rmb.25126 Rodent diversity and habitat use in a protected area of Buenos Aires province, Argentina Diversidad y uso del hábitat por roedores en un área protegida de Buenos Aires, Argentina Isabel E.

Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas-Buenos Aires-Argentina. [email protected] Abstract. Habitat use of rodents is associated to environmental variables, species requirements and biological interactions. The aim of this study was to analyse the macro and microhabitat use and spatial variation in the abundance of small wild rodents that inhabit Otamendi Natural Reserve, Argentina. We studied the rodent communities in 6 habitats: riparian forest, Celtis tala forest, lowland grassland, salt marsh and 2 highland grasslands. We captured a total of 153 individual of Scapteromys aquaticus, Akodon azarae, Oxymycterus rufus, Oligoryzomys flavescens, Deltamys kempi and O. nigripes, with a trapping effort of 3636 trap-nights. The species richness is maintained by the presence of different habitats that satisfy specific requirements from specialist and generalist species, using differentially the reserve and forming communities of different specific composition in each habitat. A differential macrohabitat use was observed by all species, and a certain level of selectivity at microhabitat scale was observed in individuals of 2 species. This study shows that the diversity of environments in the Otamendi Natural Reserve, which allows the maintenance of many wild species of small rodents; confirming the high ecological and conservational value of the reserves inside an urban region.
