    Abstract: Alouatta guariba clamitans Cabrera, 1940 is an endemic species of the Atlantic Forest that occurs from south Bahia, Brazil, extending south to the province of Misiones, Argentina. In Rio de Janeiro state, the species was classified as threatened, indicating that attention is needed for the conservation of this taxon. Additionally, an outbreak of yellow fever spread throughout the southeastern states of Brazil from January 2017 until March 2018 seriously threatening Rio de Janeiro populations of the species. Herein, we aimed to provide the first estimates of A. g. clamitans encounter rate, density, and population size in the Ilha Grande State Park (PEIG), which is part of the Atlantic Forest biome of Brazil. Data were collected in two different periods, the first between December 2003 and May 2005, and the second from August 2009 to May 2010, and information on encounter rates and behavior was collected to better understand aspects of species' ecology. The estimated encounter rate in the first period through the distance sampling method was 0.04 ± 0.01 individuals per kilometer. Nine groups were recorded in the second period of the study, with 47 individuals along 3 km. Our estimates of encounter rate, density and population size were low and reinforces the need to initiate species monitoring and assess the impact that yellow fever outbreaks may have on PEIG populations. The results presented here can be a starting point to support future strategic actions for the species, to measure impacts and to the management of the species, and for a conservation program.

    Abstract: Trinomys, one of the most species-rich spiny rat genera in Brazil, is widely distributed in Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest biomes, and currently includes ten recognized species, three of which are polytypic. Although some studies employing molecular data have been conducted to better characterize phylogenetic relationships among species, 19 nominal taxa have been suggested, implying considerable incongruence regarding species boundaries. We addressed this incongruence by intensively sampling all species across the geographic distribution of the genus. In addition to publicly available data, we generated 182 mt-Cytb gene sequences, and employed phylogenetic and computational species delimitation methods to obtain a clearer picture of the genus diversity. Moreover, we evaluated populational diversity within each accepted species, considering their geographical distribution and a timescale for the evolution of the genus. Beyond confirming the general patterns described for the evolution of the group, this new analysis suggests that Trinomys is comprised of at least 16 evolutionary lineages, 13 of them recognized as species or subspecies, and three never before characterized. This study highlights the importance of increased sample sizes and computational species delimitation methods in uncovering hidden diversity in Trinomys.

    Abstract: The diversity of Brazilian mammals is among the highest of the world. However this exceptional diversity is still widely unknown and great part of it is seriously threatened by human activities. In the present study we estimated species richness and relative abundance of medium and large size mammals for the region of Brasilândia de Minas, a city situated in a fragmented and poorly studied cerrado area of Minas Gerais state, Brazil. We obtained 63 records of 24 species, including eight species threatened with extinction. Our results support the hypothesis that many of the cerrado mammal species may be able to persist in fragmented agricultural landscapes. This paper shows that despite the anthropogenic disturbances detected, the studied area plays an important role in the conservation of medium and large size mammals in the cerrado biome.

    Abstract: We report the results of a terrestrial small mammal survey at one National Park in the northeastern Brazil, in the state of Pernambuco. The Catimbau National Park is located within the Caatinga domain with the characteristic thorn scrub vegetation. Our sampling encompasses several different vegetation/habitat types within the park area. All specimens collected were prepared as vouchers to be deposited in the Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo. Karyotypes were obtained for all representative purported species collected. We report here the results of this first survey – two species of marsupials and seven of rodents - and added new occurrence localities for several small mammal species of this region, provide karyotypic information and register an undescribed species of arboreal rat of the genus Rhipidomys. This survey illustrates the need for extensive and planned sampling of the Caatinga domain.

    Abstract: O gênero Cerradomys apresenta atualmente 8 espécies, todas com cariótipos básicos descritos. Essas espécies apresentam grande variação cromossômica, com número diploide variando de 2n=46 em Cerradomys langguthi a 2n=60 em C. akroai. Neste trabalho estudamos comparativamente os cariótipos de Cerradomys scotti (CSC) e Cerradomys subflavus (CSU) por bandeamntos G, C e pintura cromossômica utilizando sondas cromossomos totais de Hylaeamys megacephalus (HME: 2n=54, NFa=62). Analisamos 3 exemplares de C. scotti (1 macho e 2 fêmeas) coletados nos estados de Mato Grosso e Minas Gerais e 3 exemplares de C. subflavus (2 machos e 1 fêmea) coletados no estado de Minas Gerais. C. scotti apresenta 2n=58 e NFa=70, sendo composto por 7 pares de dois braços e 21 pares acrocêntricos, o X é submetacêntrico grande e o Y é submetacêntrico médio. C. subflavus apresenta 2n=54 e NFa=62, sendo composto por 5 pares de dois braços e 21 pares acrocêntricos, o X é acrocêntrico grande e o Y é acrocêntrico pequeno. A Heterocromatina Constitutiva foi observada na região pericentromérica em todos os pares autossômicos, nas duas espécies. As FISHs (Hibridização in situ fluorescente) com as sondas de HME revelaram 36 segmentos de homologia no cariótipo de CSC e 6 associações sintênicas: HME19/7/[9,10] (CSC1), HEM21/6 (CSC2), HME12/[9,10] (CSC4), HME[13,22]/20 (CSC7), HME19/14/19/[13,22] (CSC8) e HME[16,17]/11 (HME10). No cariótipo de CSU, as FISHs revelaram 39 segmentos de homologia e 6 associações sintênicas: HEM6/21/8/1 (CSU1), HME 3/14/7/[9,10] (CSU2), HME15/12/[9,10] (CSU3), HME[13,22] /20 (CSU4), HME[16,17]/11 (CSU5) e HME14/19 (CSU9). O mapeamento genômico comparativo mostra que as duas espécies compartilham 4 associações sintênicas (HME 7/[9,10] , HME12/[9,10], HME[13,22] /20 e HME14/19) das quais, somente a associação HME[13,22]/20 é compartilhada sem modificações; as demais formam blocos sintênicos diferentes nas duas espécies. Estes resultados demonstram que as duas espécies de Cerradomys apresentam cariótipos muito reorganizados entre si e ambos, em relação a HME. Rearranjos cromossômicos como translocações, inversões e fusões/fissões diferenciam o cariótipo das duas espécies. Análises nas demais espécies do gênero permitirão uma melhor compreensão dos mecanismos de rearranjos cromossômicos envolvidos na diferenciação das espécies de Cerradomys.

    Abstract: Akodon is the most diverse genus of the tribe Akodontini, comprising 41 extant species. Although distributed in a wide range of environments in South America, the genus was long considered to be absent from Amazon Forest. Nonetheless, in recent decades, records of Akodon have been reported based on specimens from southern Amazonia, throughout the contact zone with Cerrado. Published data about the unique karyotype (2n=10), along with evidence of sister phylogenetic relationship (Cytb sequences) with Akodon cursor, a species from the Atlantic Forest, suggest that these specimens represent an undescribed species. Herein we hypothesize that these samples represent a new species of Akodon from Amazonia-Cerrado transitional areas. Through the analyses of 217 specimens from Mato Grosso and Pará states, Brazil, as well as 336 specimens of Akodon cursor species group from the Atlantic Forest, we provide qualitative and quantitative external and craniodental data that support their distinction in comparison with other congeners. The sister relationship between this new species and A. cursor provide additional evidence of a past connection between the two largest tropical forests of South America. Moreover, the recognition of Akodon n. sp. points to the presence of the genus in the Amazonia-Cerrado transition, an area currently under great anthropic pressure, highlighting the fact that we might be losing a portion of Brazilian biodiversity before even getting to know it.

    Abstract: The geographic distribution of Blarinomys breviceps (Winge) includes few localities in forested areas in the Atlantic Rainforest from Bahia state in Brazil up to Misiones province in Argentina. Here we add 14 new records for the species in the region of southeastern Brazil. These findings provided information on morphology, natural history and the first karyological data for the species. During two short surveys, one in Santuário da Serra da Concórdia, Valença municipality and another in Fazenda Marimbondo, Mauá municipality, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, six specimens were collected in pit fall traps. The specimen trapped in Serra da Concórdia was a sub adult male (age class 3 according to the upper molar row wear). In Fazenda Marimbondo, four adult males and one adult female were captured. Serra da Concórdia is a secondary vegetation in a semideciduous forest type, being a small fragment of 220 ha. The second locality, Fazenda Marimbondo is a high montane forest in an evergreen forest type. Karyotype of the specimen collected in the first locality presented a diploid number of 28 chromosomes and an autosomal number of 50. The specimen collected in Serra da Concórdia was kept alive for seven days. During this period it was fed with live arthropods, what confirms their insectivorous feeding habit, consistent with the molar teeth morphology.
