Ecología de una gran serpiente sudamericana, Hydrodynastes gigas (Serpentes: Dipsadidae)

Abstract: Giraudo, 2001;Franco et al., 2007). Es un género poco conocido, como lo demuestra la descripción reciente de una nueva especie (Franco et al., 2007). Hydrodynastes gigas (Dúmeril; Bibron y Dúmeril, 1854), denominada ñacaniná por los aborígenes guaraníes, es una de las serpientes sudamericanas más grandes, alcanzando hasta 3 m de longitud total (Bernarde y Moura-Leite, 1999). Algunas características intrínsecas de su historia de vida como su gran tamaño corporal y sus necesidades de

“…The external matrix is represented by the assignment of the 17 species to each of the categories from the ecological classifications, hereafter termed the "ecological matrix." The ecological matrix was made with published information from field studies in the study area Bellini et al, 2013;Giraudo, 2001;Giraudo, Arzamendia, Bellini, Bessa, & Costanzo, 2014;Giraudo et al, 2007). The ecological variables were associated with the use of substrate (aquatic, terrestrial, arboreal, fossorial) and use of habitat The significance of clade variables was first tested individually using 9999 unrestricted Monte Carlo permutations.…”

“…Additionally, it appeared that each different tribe of South American Xenodontines was able to invade many ecological niches (Vidal et al, 2000). For example, the sister group to Pseudoboini, the genus Hydrodynastes, is aquatic while members of the Pseudoboini tribe are mainly terrestrial and arboreal (Gaiarsa, de Alencar, & Martins, 2013;Giraudo et al, 2014).…”

“…The main hypotheses proposed to explain the evolution of sexual dimorphism are sexual selection (e.g., male ritual combat), fertility selection and ecological divergence (Shine 1989, Shetty and Shine 2002. Most studies reporting sexual dimorphism in snakes were based on external morphological characters such as body size (Crews et al 1984, Shine 1988, Mesquita et al 2010, head size (Shine and Crews 1988, Shine 1991, King et al 1999, Luiselli et al 2002, Giraudo et al 2014, tail size (Shine et al 1999), body color (Shine 1993), and shape, size and texture of scales (Avolio 2006). However, sexual dimorphism may be also related to venom composition (Furtado et al 2006) and morphology of cloacal glands (Thorpe 1989, Kissner et al 1998.…”

“…Hydrodynastes gigas (Duméril, Bibron y Duméril, 1854) es un ofidio de hábitos semi-acuáticos que ocupa zonas bajas en las planicies de inundación de grandes ríos, en donde se encuentran diferentes ambientes de humedales, monte de galería y sabanas (Giraudo, Arzamendia, Bellini, Bessa y Costanzo, 2014;Nogueira et al, 2020). Este ofidio es conocido como "Ñacaniná", nombre que utilizaban los aborígenes guaraníes para referirse a esta especie (Giraudo, 2001) y es uno de los ofidios que alcanzan mayores dimensiones en la región, con ejemplares adultos que pueden medir cerca de tres metros de longitud total (Bernarde y Moura-Leite, 1999).…”

“…La localidad típica es Corrientes, Argentina. Esta especie tiene una amplia distribución continental desde la costa de la Guayana Francesa, Guyana y Surinam, Venezuela, Colombia, extendiéndose ampliamente por Brasil hacia el sur hasta el estado de Río Grande do Sul, este de Bolivia, Paraguay, alcanzando Argentina en las provincias de Misiones, Formosa, Chaco, Corrientes, Santa Fe y Entre Ríos (Cei, 1993;Giraudo et al, 2014;Wallach, Williams y Boundy, 2014;Uetz, Freed, Aguilar y Hošek, 2021) extendiéndose al sur hasta aproximadamente el paralelo 33º. Sobre estas últimas provincias los registros se sitúan mayoritariamente asociados a la cuenta del Río Paraná.…”
