The peopling of the Americas and human interaction with the Pleistocene megafauna in
South America remain hotly debated. The Santa Elina rock shelter in Central Brazil shows …

The association of vertebrate remains and invertebrate traces, although less studied than
other bioerosion traces, provides important paleoecological information. This report …

En esta tesis se presentan los resultados del estudio arqueológico de sitios concheros
ubicados en diferentes localidades a lo largo de la costa norte de Santa Cruz (en adelante …

The first evidence of parasite-induced bioerosion is reported from large cingulates from the
Middle Miocene La Venta fauna of Colombia. These traces occur primarily on osteoderms in …

Osteoderms are dermal ossifications present in several vertebrates and assemble a
carapace on armadillos. Here we describe ichnotaxonomically two types of bioerosion …

This paper presents pathological lesions in the osteoderms of three extinct pampatheres:
two specimens of the genus Holmesina sp. and one specimen of Pampatherium humboldtii …

En este trabajo se analizan una serie de piezas dentarias de carnívoros discutiendo su
utilización como objetos ornamentales por las poblaciones humanas que ocuparon el …

Armadillos are bitten by several species of flea. Females of the genus Tunga penetrate the
epidermis and when in place are fertilised by males, after which the abdomen swells …

To distinguish whether the presence of osteoderms of armadillos (Xenarthra, Dasypodidae)
in the zooarchaeological and paleontological record can be assigned to anthropic action or …

We describe perforations recognized in mobile osteoderms of the extinct armadillos
(Cingulata, Dasypodidae) Chasicotatus ameghinoi (Euphractinae, Eutatini) and Vetelia …
