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 …

Isotope data from amino acids indicate Darwin's ground sloth was not an herbivore
Fossil sloths are regarded as obligate herbivores for reasons including peculiarities of their
craniodental morphology and that all living sloths feed exclusively on plants. We challenge …

Ulnar dimensions and fossoriality in armadillos
SF Vizcaíno, RA Fariña, GV Mazzetta - Acta Theriologica, 1999 - sedici.unlp.edu.ar
Ulnar dimensions were measured in 14 species of armadillos (Xenarthra: Dasypodidae). An
index of fossorial ability (IFA) was constructed, relating the length of the olecranon process …
