This article provides an update of the distribution of the Xenarthra fauna of Paraguay. Tamandua tetradactyla<\/em> is confirmed to occur in all Paraguayan departments. New departmental records of Myrmecophaga tridactyla<\/em> are reported for \u00d1eembuc\u00fa, Paraguar\u00ed, and San Pedro. Dasypus novemcinctus<\/em> is reported for \u00d1eembuc\u00fa department for the first time. Two previous species (Dasypus hybridus<\/em> and Cabassous tatouay<\/em>) considered to occur in \u00d1eembuc\u00fa department based on specimens in the Basel Natural History Museum are now considered doubtful. A public interest in reports of Myrmecophagidae in Paraguay is noted and it is suggested that it could be utilized to benefit the conservation of these species in the Oriental region, where both species are rarely encountered.<\/p>\n

Nuevos registros de Xenarthra de Paraguay con una revisi\u00f3n de las especies presentes en el departamento de <\/strong>\u00d1eembuc\u00fa.<\/strong> Este art\u00edculo brinda una actualizaci\u00f3n de la distribuci\u00f3n conocida de la fauna de xenartros del Paraguay. Tamandua tetradactyla<\/em> es confirmado como presente en todos los departamentos del pa\u00eds. Se reportan nuevos registros departamentales de Myrmecophaga tridactyla<\/em> para \u00d1eembuc\u00fa, Paraguar\u00ed y San Pedro. Dasypus novemcinctus<\/em> es reportado del departamento de \u00d1eembuc\u00fa por primera vez. Dos especies (Dasypus hybridus<\/em> y Cabassous tatouay<\/em>), previamente consideradas como de ocurrencia en \u00d1eembuc\u00fa en base a ejemplares del Museo de Historia Natural de Basilea, ahora se consideran dudosas para el \u00e1rea. Se nota un inter\u00e9s del p\u00fablico en reportes de Myrmecophagidae en Paraguay y se sugiere que puede ser utilizado para beneficiar la conservaci\u00f3n de estas especies en la Regi\u00f3n Oriental del Paraguay, donde ambas especies son raramente encontradas.<\/p>\n<\/td>

El armadillo peludo de nariz larga (Dasypus pilosus<\/em>) es el menos conocido de las cinco especies de armadillo reportadas para el Per\u00fa. Es end\u00e9mico de los bosques montanos del noreste del nombrado pa\u00eds. Durante un inventario de fauna del Parque Nacional R\u00edo Abiseo se colectaron ocho espec\u00edmenes de este armadillo en bosque montano y bosque montano bajo. Los contenidos estomacales examinados muestran que es un insect\u00edvoro oportunista que se alimenta mayormente de larvas que viven bajo tierra o conformando colonias. Las especies m\u00e1s consumidas son adultos y larvas de himen\u00f3pteros, lepid\u00f3pteros y cole\u00f3pteros. Adicionalmente, se revisaron registros previos de la especie. El an\u00e1lisis de los mismos sugiere que D. pilosus<\/em> puede usar los pastizales vecinos al borde del bosque y aquellos en la jalca, y que est\u00e1 presente en \u00e1reas de conservaci\u00f3n de San Mart\u00edn, Amazonas y Cajamarca. Para la conservaci\u00f3n efectiva de D. pilosus<\/em> se requiere ampliar el conocimiento sobre los aspectos b\u00e1sicos de su biolog\u00eda y ecolog\u00eda.<\/p>\n

Contributions to the knowledge of the hairy long-nosed armadillo (Dasypus pilosus<\/em>).<\/strong> The hairy long-nosed armadillo (Dasypus pilosus<\/em>) is the least known of the five armadillo species reported for Peru. This species is endemic to the montane forests of northeastern Peru. During a wildlife inventory in R\u00edo Abiseo National Park, eight specimens were collected in montane forest or low montane forest. Stomach content analyses show that they are opportunistic insectivores that feed mainly on larvae living underground or forming colonies. The most commonly consumed species (adults and larvae) were hymenopterans, lepidopterans, and coleopterans. In addition, previous species records were reviewed. Their analysis suggests that D. pilosus<\/em> may use grasslands near the forest edge and those in the jalca<\/em>, and that it is present in conservation areas of San Mart\u00edn, Amazonas and Cajamarca. Effective conservation of D. pilosus<\/em> requires a better understanding of the basic aspects of its biology and ecology.<\/p>\n<\/td>

En esta nota presentamos dos nuevas localidades en Argentina para uno de los armadillos menos conocidos del mundo, el pichiciego mayor (Calyptophractus retusus<\/em>). Una localidad corresponde a la provincia de Formosa, departamento Pati\u00f1o, Campo Las Delicias, y la otra a Salta, departamento Or\u00e1n, Parque Provincial Los Palmares. A su vez discutimos la validez de la localidad tipo de la subespecie C. r. clorindae<\/em> \u00abTapia, en la gobernaci\u00f3n de Formosa (Argentina)\u00bb, la cual fue imposible ubicar.<\/p>\n

Chacoan fairy armadillo, Calyptophractus retusus<\/em> (Desmarest, 1863), new information on its distribution in Argentina.<\/strong> In this note we present two new localities in Argentina for one of the least known armadillos in the world, the greater fairy armadillo (Calyptophractus retusus<\/em>). One locality is in Formosa province, Pati\u00f1o department, Campo Las Delicias, and the other in Salta, Or\u00e1n department, Parque Provincial Los Palmares. In addition, we discuss the validity of the type locality of the subspecies C. r. clorindae<\/em> \u201cTapia, in the governorate of Formosa (Argentina)\u201d, which was impossible to locate.<\/p>\n<\/td>

Existem poucos relatos na literatura sobre os cuidados neonatais de tatus \u00f3rf\u00e3os sob cuidados humanos. O presente caso objetiva relatar a cria\u00e7\u00e3o artificial e o desenvolvimento de um tatu-de-rabo-mole-grande (Cabassous tatouay<\/em>) durante um ano, recebido ainda de olhos fechados no Zool\u00f3gico de Sorocaba, S\u00e3o Paulo, Brasil. Inicialmente, o animal era alimentado com suced\u00e2neo de leite de c\u00e3o e o desmame ocorreu ap\u00f3s dois meses da sua chegada. Ap\u00f3s este per\u00edodo, iniciou-se a transi\u00e7\u00e3o para alimenta\u00e7\u00e3o s\u00f3lida, constitu\u00edda de ra\u00e7\u00e3o de c\u00e3o, ovos e frutas. Durante o processo, seu crescimento foi acompanhado atrav\u00e9s de pesagens peri\u00f3dicas. O bom estado de sa\u00fade do animal comprova que os cuidados neonatais se mostraram adequados para o desenvolvimento de um C. tatouay<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Neonatal and pediatric care of a greater naked-tailed armadillo (Cabassous tatouay<\/em>).<\/strong> There are few reports in literature on the neonatal care of orphaned armadillos under human care. The present note aims to report the hand-rearing, growth, and development of a greater naked-tailed armadillo (Cabassous tatouay<\/em>) during one year. The animal was received with its eyes still closed at Sorocaba Zoo, S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil. For the first two months, it was fed dog’s milk formula. Then, the transition to solid food began, which consisted of dog food, eggs, and fruits. During the process, its growth was monitored through periodic weighing. The animal’s good health shows that neonatal care was adequate for the development of C. tatouay<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/td>

We monitored a stretch of the BR-050 highway in the State of Goi\u00e1s that crosses several natural environments used by the giant armadillo, a peculiar and endangered species whose survival is threatened by vehicle collisions. Here, we present the record of highway underpass use by Priodontes maximus<\/em> in a fragmented Cerrado landscape in Ipameri, Goi\u00e1s. The finding confirms the use of highway underpasses by the giant armadillo and highlights that these structures should be promoted at points where P. maximus<\/em> occurs in the habitats isolated by the BR-050.<\/p>\n
