A window into a late Pleistocene megafauna community: Stable isotopes show niche partitioning among herbivorous taxa at the Arroyo del Vizcaíno site (Uruguay)
The analysis of stable isotopes on fossil mammals has become a widely used tool for
understanding the paleoecology and paleodiet of these organisms. In this work, we study …

3D finite element analysis and geometric morphometrics of sloths (Xenarthra, Folivora) mandibles show insights on the dietary specializations of fossil taxa
Sloths are represented today only by two distantly-related small, arboreal, and folivorous
genera. However, the fossil record of the clade is composed of many more taxa, with much …
