“…The giant armadillo has been recently recorded in the Amazon (PERES 2001, PERES et al 2003, TROLLE 2003a, MARTINS et al 2007), Cerrado (ANACLETO & MARINHO-FILHO 2001, SANTOS-FILHO & SILVA 2001, MARINHO-FILHO et al 2002, ROCHA & DALPONTE 2006, ANACLETO 2007 and Pantanal (TROLLE 2003b, TROLLE & KÉRY 2005), but such records are exceedingly rare in the Atlantic Forest. CHIARELLO et al (2007) speculated that this species was naturally rare in Espírito Santo.…”

“…5); posteriormente, al comparar el valor observado con el promedio esperado por azar (0,59) no se observaron diferencias significativas (p=0,17), indicando que no existió solapamiento de presas entre Z. pichiy y C. villosus. (Bolković et al, 1995;Tyler et al, 1996;Anacleto & Marinho-Filho, 2001;Dalponte & Tavares-Filho, 2004;Anacleto, 2007;Soibelzon et al, 2007;Abba et al, 2011a,b;Whitaker et al, 2012). Con respecto a otras poblaciones de Z. pichiy, nuestros resultados concuerdan con los reportados en una población de distribución central localizada en la provincia de Mendoza, Argentina (35°40'S; 68°36'O), donde el análisis de contenidos estomacales indicó mayor incidencia de invertebrados, identificando a Coleoptera como el grupo predominante y más diverso (Superina et al, 2009).…”

“…Se colectaron 32 fecas de individuos capturados en los partidos de Magdalena y Punta Indio (tres en invierno, cinco en otoño, 15 en primavera y nueve en verano). Para el análisis se siguieron las técnicas propuestas a partir de bibliografía existente (gReegoR, 1980;AnAcleto & MARinho-filho, 2001;AnAcleto, 2007). Las muestras fueron estudiadas bajo lupa binocular de entre 1 y 4 aumentos.…”
