A Revision of the Didelphid Marsupial Genus Marmosops, Part 1. Species of the Subgenus Sciophanes

基于遗传单系与鉴别特征的系统发生种的划分及其对哺乳动物分类学的意义

“…When applied based on sufficient geographic and taxonomic sampling, and, ideally (but not strictly necessary; see below), employing phylogenetic inferences using data from independent sources (e.g., DNA sequence data obtained from independently inherited genes), the dmPSC has improved the taxonomic classifications of various groups of mammals, some of which remained problematic for decades. Among studies that exemplify how the dmPSC has helped to advance mammalian systematics, even if some of them used this species concept without explicitly or correctly invoking it, are those on didelphid marsupials (e.g., Díaz-Nieto & Voss, 2016 ; Giarla et al, 2010 ; Gutiérrez et al, 2010 ; Martínez-Lanfranco et al, 2014 ; Pavan et al, 2017 ; Voss et al, 2018 ), rodents (e.g., Hawkins et al, 2016 ; do Prado & Percequillo, 2017 ; Rogers & González, 2010 ; Voss et al, 2013 ), bats (e.g., Baird et al, 2008 ; Molinari et al, 2017 ; Moras et al, 2016 ; Velazco et al, 2010 ), and medium and large mammals (e.g., Bornholdt et al, 2013 ; Gutiérrez et al, 2015 ; Helgen et al, 2009 , 2013 ; Janečka et al, 2008 ; Koepfli et al, 2008 ; Miranda et al, 2017 ; do Nascimento & Feijó, 2017 (and references therein for phylogenetic evidence)). These studies have not only unraveled the true-species nature of previously unrecognized species, but in many cases have shown that taxa considered as valid species for decades are not valid species at all.…”

Marsupials and rodents (Didelphimorphia and Rodentia) of upper Rio Acre, with new data on Oxymycterus inca Thomas, 1900 from Brazil

“…In addition to upper Rio Acre specimens, we analyzed specimens housed in the Coleção do Laboratório de Mamíferos da Escola Superior de Agricultura "Luiz de Queiroz", Universidade de São Paulo (LMUSP) and National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution (USNM) for comparative purposes. We fol low the taxonomic nomenclature presented by Gardner (2007), Pavan et al (2012;2014) and Díaz-Nieto and Voss (2016) for marsupials, and Patton et al (2015) for rodents.…”

“…Although very few studies on mammal species had been published for Acre state, most of the species recorded here were previously known from the upper Rio Acre region. In some cases (e.g., Marmosops bishopi, M. noctivagus and Proechimys simonsi), it is due to the documented presence of the species in the neighboring states of Amazonas and Rondônia or from Peru and Bolivia, which border the upper Rio Acre region (Gardner 2007;Patton et al 2015;Díaz-Nieto and Voss 2016). However, three species -Neacomys musseri, Dasyprocta fuliginosa and Proechimys cuvieri -were not previously recorded from the upper Rio Acre, only previously known from the upper Rio Juruá region, northwestern Acre; (Patton et al 2000).…”

Colección de mamíferos (Mammalia) del Museo de Historia Natural de la Universidad de Caldas, Colombia

“…A nivel local, la Colección de Mamíferos del Centro de Museos, Museo de Historia Natural de la Universidad de Caldas (MHN-UCa), ha jugado un papel importante en el conocimiento de los mamíferos de los departamentos de Caldas y Risaralda (Castaño et al, 2003a;2017;Castaño Salazar, 2012). En los últimos 20 años, hasta 27 publicaciones han incluido ejemplares de la Colección de Mamíferos del MHN-UCa (Sánchez, 2000;Castaño et al, 2003a, b;2004a, b;2017, Sánchez & Alvear, 2003Castaño & Corrales, 2004;2010;Sánchez et al, 2004;Roncancio-D. & Estévez-V., 2007;Roncancio & Ramírez-Chaves, 2008;Castaño Salazar, 2012;Marín et al, 2012;Ramírez-Chaves et al, 2012;Escobar-Lasso & Guzmán-Hernández, 2014;Escobar-Lasso & Gil-Fernández, 2014;Escobar-Lasso et al, 2013;Cardona et al, 2016;Díaz-Nieto & Voss, 2016;García Restrepo et al, 2018;Marín-C. et al, 2018;Serna-Botero et al, 2019;Torres-Martínez et al, 2019). También, ha sido evaluado el estado de salud de la colección, presentando valores satisfactorios de la condición de la Colección de mamíferos en general (Castaño Ramírez & Ramírez-Chaves, 2018).…”
