Primeiro registro de leucismo no cachorro-do-mato Cerdocyon thous (Linnaeus, 1766) (Carnivora: Canidae) no Brasil

Abstract: Variações polimórficas podem atuar nas alterações cromáticas, que, em excesso, causam a hiperpigmentação (indivíduos melânicos), e quando deficientes são responsáveis pela hipopigmentação (indivíduos albinos, leucísticos ou com piebaldismo) e podem estar associadas com aspectos ecológicos, fisiologia e outros processos biológicos. No Brasil, o leucismo foi observado em poucas espécies de carnívoros, podendo representar um evento esporádico nesse grupo de animais, uma vez que as alterações cromáticas de hipopig… Show more

“…There appears to be a single record of a leucistic canid in the Neotropical region, an individual of Cerdocyon thous (Carnivora: Canidae), photographed in northeastern Brazil (Oliveira et al 2019). We present here the finding of a leucistic individual of L. gymnocercus in the province of Corrientes, in northeastern Argentina.…”

“…All types of melanin production deficiency are hereditary and genetic (congenital) abnormalities. Such disorders have been observed in numerous species of wild mammals throughout the world, including marine (Fertl andRosel 2002, Abreu et al 2013), terrestrials (Lopucki and Mróz 2010, Abreu et al 2013, Neves et al 2013, Xu et al 2013, Camargo et al 2014, Nedyalkov et al 2014, Sayyed et al 2015, Kumar et al 2016, Romero et al 2018, Oliveira et al 2019 and bats (Uieda 2000, Murariu and Chisamera 2006, McCardle 2012, Ramasindrazana et al 2014, Rengifo et al 2014, Smirnov et al 2014, Zalapa et. al.…”

“…In Southern Brazil, some cases of pigmentation anomalies in wild mammals have already been reported, for instance, in rodents, such as Delomys dorsalis (Rodentia, Cricetidae; Cademartori & Pacheco 1999) and Dasyprocta azarae (Rodentia, Dasyproctidae) (Oliveira 2009a), primates Alouatta guariba clamitans (Primates, Atelidae) (Fortes & Bicca-Marques 2008), cervids Mazama gouazoubira (Artiodactyla, Cervidae) (Oliveira 2009b), carnivores Conepatus chinga (Carnivora, Mephitidae) (Mello et al 2016), and marsupials Didelphis sp., (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae) (Abreu et al 2013). However, for wild canids, the only record in the literature is for a leucistic Crabeating Fox Cerdocyon thous (Carnivora, Canidae), observed in the northwestern region of Brazil, Caatinga Biome, in the Agricultural Sciences campus of the Universidade Federal do Vale do São Francisco, located in the rural zone of the municipality of Petrolina, state of Pernambuco (Oliveira et al 2019).…”
