“…The majority available literature on this species includes information about its trophic ecology in Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, and southern Brazil ( Ebensperger, Mella & Simonetti, 1991 ; Diuk-Wasser & Cassini, 1998 ; Delibes et al, 2003 ; Kraus & Rödel, 2004 ; Zapata et al, 2005 ; Sade, Rau & Orellana, 2012 ; Kasper et al, 2015 ), habitat selection ( Zúñiga, Muñoz-Pedreros & Fierro, 2009 ), and anatomy ( Ercoli et al, 2012 , 2016 ). Except for the studies of Zapata et al (2008) and Schiaffini & Prevosti (2013) and a revision of the morphological and molecular characteristics of the genus Galictis ( Bornholdt et al, 2013 ), the cranial morphology of the species has been largely unexplored, even in ecomorphological studies of Mustelidae ( Catalano, Ercoli & Prevosti, 2014 ; Law et al, 2018 ).…”
