- Geographical and temporal patterns of green turtle occurrence along the southwestern Atlantic coast(2016) BARATA, P.C.R.; CARMAN, V.G.; FALLABRINO, A.; SANTOS, A.S.; BONDIOLI, C.V.; ESTRADES, A.; SANTOS, A.J.B.; SILVA, A.C.C.D.; SILVA, B.M.G.; GIFFONI, B.B.; DOMIT, C.; BAPTISTOTTE, C.; BELLINI, C.; BATISTA, C.M.P.; BEZERRA, D.P.; MONTEIRO, D.S.; RIETH, D.; ALBAREDA, D.; LIMA, E.H.S.M.; LIMA, E.P.; GUEBERT, F.; VELEZ-RUBIO, G.M.; SALES, G.; LOPEZ, G.G.; STAHELIN, G.D.; BRUNO, I.; CASTILHOS, J.C.; THOME, J.C.A.; BECKER, J.H.; NARO-MACIEL, E.; MASCARENHAS, R.; WANDERLINDE, J.; MARCOVALDI, M.A.; BARROS, J.; ESTIMA, S.C.; MELO, M.T.D.; ROSA, L.
Item GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF EREMOTHERIUM (XENARTHRA, MEGATHERIIDAE) RECORDS IN MIDWEST BRAZIL(2020) André Oliveira, Marlon; de Lima da Costa, Vanessa; Lopes de França Ferreira, Stephany; Silva Mendes, Millena; Souza Kuhn, Caiubi Emanuel; Oliveira Paulo, Pedro; de Oliveira Porpino, Kleberson; A. Candeiro, Carlos RobertoThe aim of this article was to present the current fossil record and geographical distribution of Eremotherium in midwest Brazil. The methodology employed here included a bibliographic survey and mapping of specimens. On the last years, new information has been revealed on these ground sloths mainly due to new fossil discoveries in the western region of Goiás and Mato Grosso states. The temporal distribution shows that these records range from the Pliocene to Holocene. This taxon is an important representative of the Brazilian megafauna, and despite its wide Pan-American distribution during the Pliocene-Holocene, there are few known Eremotherium records from this large geographic region of Brazil.Item What can we learn from sea turtle strandings?(2016) GOLDBERG, D.W.; PIRES, T.; VELLOSO, R.; BECKER, H.; CASTILHOS, J.C.; WANDERLINDE, J.; LOPEZ, G.G.; MELO, M.T.D.; SANTOS, A.B.; BAPTISTOTTE, C.Stranding datasets may provide important information on sea turtle health, age, size composition, diet, reproductive status, population trends and cause-specific mortality. Additionally, they are also used to infer geographic distribution and abundance or even trends in mortality risk, attributable to anthropogenic threats such as coastal fisheries and pollution. Five species of sea turtle were recorded in 5260 strandings from January 2014 to September 2015, along the Brazilian coast, of which 3903 were Chelonia mydas, 914 were Lepidochelys olivacea, 290 were Caretta caretta, 83 were Eretmochelys imbricata, 4 were Dermochelys coriacea and 66 could not be identified.
