Abstract:
A routine check-up was performed on a captive 14-year-old female margay (Leopardus wiedii), a cutaneous mass was detected on the ventral thorax. The mass was surgically removed and sent for histopathological analysis. Histologically, the mass was a poorly-demarcated, highly cellular, infiltrative and unencapsulated mesenchymal neoplasm. Immunohistochemical labeling for smooth muscle actin and vimentin were positive, while desmin and cytokeratin were negative which is consistent with a myofibroblastic fibrosarcoma. This type of tumor has been diagnosed in wild felines, however this seems to be the first report of its occurrence in this L. wiedii. Wildlife oncology studies should be performed to promote our understanding of cancer in a species.

Abstract:
La mastofauna del Parque Nacional Tingo María (PNTM) es conocida principalmente por entrevistas a pobladores locales. Este artículo presenta una lista de mamíferos medianos y grandes en base a evaluaciones con cámaras trampa y su verificación con entrevistas. Las evaluaciones se realizaron entre diciembre del 2014 y noviembre del 2018, con un esfuerzo de 2970 trampas cámara/día, consiguiéndose 1640 registros independientes. Se registró 19 especies silvestres, cuatro de las cuales son nuevos registros para el PNTM (la zarigüeyita acuática Chironectes minimus, el margay Leopardus wiedii, la tigrina Leopardus tigrinus y el osito cangrejero Procyon cancrivorus), tres son nuevos para las yungas peruanas (L. wiedii, el ronsoco Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris y la nutria Lontra longicaudis) y dos (H. hydrochaeris y L. wiedii) tienen el récord de altitud en el Perú. Se elaboró patrones de actividad horaria para las nueve especies con más de 10 registros. Ocho de ellos coinciden con lo publicado anteriormente, mientras que el patrón conseguido para el machetero Dynomis branicki es el primero elaborado en condiciones de silvestría. Tanto la presencia de varias especies de predadores como la normalidad de los patrones de actividad encontrados sugieren un buen estado de conservación del bosque en el PNTM. En conclusión, el muestreo con cámaras trampapermitió la obtención de una lista confiable y bastante completa de los mamíferos medianos y grandes de hábitos terrestres del PNTM, además de datos sobre su distribución y ecología.

Abstract:
El margay (Leopardus wiedii) es el felino más pequeño de México, habita en diversos tipos de vegetación, prefiere las selvas con cobertura vegetal muy densa, en donde abunden árboles grandes. Por sus hábitos nocturnos y su aparente rareza es una especie que se encuentra poco representada en las colecciones científicas y son pocos los estudios sobre su biología. En el estado de Oaxaca al momento se tienen solo 13 registros. Estos felinos sólo se distribuyen a barlovento de las elevaciones montañosas en el Istmo de Tehuantepec y del norte y sur del estado, dejando grandes espacios sin información dentro del territorio. El presente trabajo registra la presencia de este críptico felino en el área de transición entre la Sierra Norte y la Cañada y en la Sierra Mixe, al norte del estado. Los registros se obtuvieron a partir de la recolección de excrementos en campo y su identificación se realizó por medio de análisis de ADN. La musaraña forma parte importante de la dieta del tigrillo durante la temporada de secas en San Andres Yaa y durante la temporada de lluvias en San Juan Teponaxtla.PALABRAS CLAVEMargay, Leopardus wiedii, hábitos alimentarios, Oaxaca, felinos.

El margay (Leopardus wiedii) es un felino Neotropical de tamaño pequeño a mediano clasificado como en peligro de extinción en Guatemala. Para detectar especies sigilosas o de hábitos nocturnos en ambientes tropicales se ha recomendado utilizar métodos no invasivos. En este trabajo, presentamos el primer registro fotográfico de margay en el Biotopo Universitario Mario Dary Rivera para la Conservación del Quetzal, departamento de Baja Verapaz, utilizando trampas cámara. Este registro representa la observación a mayor altitud para esta especie en bosques nubosos de Guatemala. Utilizamos 7 trampas cámara, 4 LeafRiver™ modelo C-1BU con cámara Canon© Sure Shot Owl y 3 DeerCam (860 Park Lane, Park Falls WI 54551). Las trampas cámara fueron instaladas durante 16 días consecutivos (21 de febrero al 8 de marzo de 2008) y fueron programadas para obtener fotografías con la hora y fecha impresa. Con un esfuerzo total de 110 trampas/noche, obtuvimos un registro de margay en una trampa cámara en bosque nuboso, confirmando la presencia de este felino a 1,770 m. Este registro fotográfico es la primera evidencia confirmada de la presencia de margay en el bosque nuboso del Biotopo Universitario Mario Dary Rivera para la Conservación del Quetzal, a 3.3 km al sureste del poblado municipal de Purulhá. Recomendamos la implementación de programas de monitoreo a largo plazo utilizando trampas cámara dentro del área, con el objetivo de investigar especies esquivas con hábitos crepusculares, nocturnos, para promover estrategias de conservación.

ABSTRACT This is the first study to investigate mercury (Hg) contamination in felid species in the Brazilian Amazon. We collected 26 fur samples from wild felids of four species (Puma concolor, Panthera onca, Leopardus pardalis and Leopardus wiedii) occurring in the Mamirauá and Amanã sustainable development reserves, in the state of Amazonas. Samples were from museum specimens, except for five P. onca samples collected from free-living individuals. Total Hg concentrations ranged from 0.12 to 48.1 µg g-1. Concentrations of Hg did not differ significantly between museum specimens and live individuals of P. onca, but varied significantly among species, with significantly higher concentrations for P. onca and L. pardalis, which could be related to factors such as diet and habitat.

Abstract:
El margay (Leopardus wiedii) está considerado desde 1990 en el Apéndice I de CITES, y en la lista roja de la UICN. En el Perú está catalogado como “especie con datos insuficientes” dentro de la categorización de Especies Amenazadas de Fauna Silvestre del Ministerio de Agricultura y Riego (MINAGRI). El presente estudio tuvo por finalidad describir la morfología y topografía de los órganos abdominales del margay en cautiverio. El trabajo comprendió los seis especímenes, cinco hembras y un macho, criados en el Parque Zoológico de Huachipa, Lima, Perú. Los animales fueron anestesiados para realizar la técnica ecográfica. Se empleó un equipo Pie Medical modelo Falco, con un transductor multifrecuencial de 5-7.5 MHz. Se evaluó la topografía, forma, ecotextura, márgenes y arquitectura del hígado, vesícula biliar, riñones, estómago, bazo, vejiga urinaria y testículos. Se concluyó que las características ecográficas encontradas en el bazo, vejiga, hígado, estómago, vesícula biliar y testículos fueron similares en cuanto a ecogenicidad, márgenes y topografía a la de algunos carnívoros domésticos como el gato y el perro; la forma de los riñones fue alargada recordando más a la forma de los perros domésticos, en tanto que el bazo y el estómago presentaron formas ligeramente más alargadas que las descritas en el gato doméstico.

Abstract This study aimed to investigate the species of felids that inhabit the Serra dos Órgãos National Park (Parnaso) and gastrointestinal parasites at various stages of their life cycles in the feces of these animals. Between 2013 and 2015, felid feces were collected from trails in Parnaso. The sampling points were georeferenced. A total of 82 fecal samples were processed, of which 79 were collected on the ground, two from captured felids and one from a necropsied animal. All samples underwent coproparasitological techniques. Samples collected from the environment underwent additional trichological analysis. Fur patterns corresponding to Leopardus guttulus, Leopardus pardalis, Leopardus wiedii and Puma yagouaroundi were observed in 32 of the samples collected on the soil. High frequency of potentially parasitic evolving forms (88.6%) was observed in felid feces, particularly eggs of the family Diphyllobothriidae (68.6%). Besides, were also detected, eggs of superfamily Ascaridoidea (42.9%), nematode larvae (28.6%), eggs of order Strongylida (28.6%), Capillaria sp. (8.6%), Trichuris sp. (8.6%), eggs of order Spirurida (2.9%), unsporulated coccidian oocysts (8.6%) and Eimeria sp. (2.9%). Felid feces presented higher frequency of polyparasitism (60%) than monoparasitism (28.6%).

Abstract:
Abstract The wildlife of the Brazilian Pampa is threatened by large-scale habitat loss, due in particular to the expansion of soybean cultivation and the conversion of grasslands areas into extensive areas of silviculture. It is essential to study how the mammal fauna copes with the highly fragmented, human-influenced, non-protected landscape. Our study presents the results of a survey of the large- and medium-sized mammals of a typical human-influenced steppic savanna area of the Pampa biome. The survey was conducted exclusively with the use of camera traps over a period of 16 months. The relative frequencies of species in the area were evaluated. We recorded 18 species, some of them locally threatened (Tamandua tetradactyla, Alouatta caraya, Leopardus colocolo, Leopardus geoffroyi, Leopardus wiedii, Puma yagouaroundi, Mazama gouazoubira and Cuniculus paca). Several species were found to thrive in the area; however, many species were considered rare, and undoubtedly new species could be recorded if we continued the sampling. Our results contribute to the knowledge of faunal diversity in the Pampa biome and associated habitats, warn about threats and provide support for conservation measures.

A Associação Mata Ciliar (AMC) se propôs a efetuar estudos visando ampliar os conhecimentos e contribuir para conservação de pequenos felinos neotropicais. Participaram 22 zoológicos, 113 animai foram cadastrados e 93 foram identificados (tatuagem e marcação eletrônica), classificados zoologicamente e manejados: Herpailurus yagouaroundi- gato mourisco (16,6,0), Leopardus pardalis- jaguatirica (18,15,0),Leopardus wiedii- gato maracajá (3,4,0), Leopardus tigrinus- gato-da-mato-pequeno (21,10,0). Os resultados obtidos através da avaliação clínica e de aspectos envolvendo os animais permitiram constatar que ao redor de 50 %dos indivíduos apresentam alterações ligadas ao manejo sendo elas, pedológica, dermatológicas, odontológicas, além da condição física insatisfatória. Conclui- e que há necessidade de se melhorar o manejo, a qualidade dos recintos e de se reverter a baixa taxa de nascimento, bem como reduzir o alto índice de mortalidade dos recém-nascidos. O plantel desses felinos em criadouro ou zoológicos constituem banco genético fundamental, tendo como meta possibilitar um plano de manejo futuro na natureza, visando assegurar a biodiversidade.

Abstract:
Abstract Home range and minimal population densities of Southern tiger cat (Leopardus guttulus), margay (Lepardus wiedii) and jaguarundi (Puma yagouaroundi) were estimated between 2005 and 2006 in Taquari Valley, near the southern edge of the Atlantic Rainforest in Brazil. Home range data were collected by conventional radio telemetry (VHF) locations in a highly fragmented landscape. The average home range size, calculated using 95% kernel density estimates, was 16.01 km2 for Southern tiger cat, 21.85 km2 for margay and 51.45 km2 for jaguarundi. Telemetry data were used to obtain minimal density estimates of 0.08 Southern tiger cats / km2, and 0.04 jaguarundi / km2. The density estimates arise from areas where ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) and other larger-bodied carnivores were locally extinct, and they suggest a specific type of mesopredator release known as the ocelot effect, which is likely enabling the increase in smaller felid populations in this area.

Abstract:
Population assessments of wide-ranging, cryptic, terrestrial mammals rely on camera trap surveys. While camera trapping is a powerful method of detecting presence, it is difficult distinguishing rarity from low detection rate. The margay (Leopardus wiedii) is an example of a species considered rare based on its low detection rates across its range. Although margays have a wide distribution, detection rates with camera traps are universally low; consequently, the species is listed as Near Threatened. Our 12-year camera trap study of margays in protected broadleaf forest in Belize suggests that while margays have low detection rate, they do not seem to be rare, rather that they are difficult to detect with camera traps. We detected a maximum of 187 individuals, all with few or no recaptures over the years (mean = 2.0 captures/individual ± SD 2.1), with two-thirds of individuals detected only once. The few individuals that were recaptured across years exhibited long tenures up to 9 years and were at least 10 years old at their final detection. We detected multiple individuals of both sexes at the same locations during the same survey, suggesting overlapping ranges with non-exclusive territories, providing further evidence of a high-density population. By studying the sparse annual datasets across multiple years, we found evidence of an abundant margay population in the forest of the Cockscomb Basin, which might have been deemed low density and rare, if studied in the short term. We encourage more long-term camera trap studies to assess population status of semi-arboreal carnivore species that have hitherto been considered rare based on low detection rates.

RESUMENEn Honduras ocurren cinco especies de felinos, jaguar (Panthera onca), puma (Puma concolor), ocelote (Leopardus pardalis), caucel (Leopardus wiedii) y el yaguarundí (Puma yagouaroundi). Se comparó la composición de las cinco especies de felinos en 15 áreas naturales protegidas, las cuales se agruparon en tres regiones con diferentes zonas de vida, ecosistemas y gradientes altitudinal siendo estas; la región Moskitia, la región Central y la región Caribe. Se evaluó la detección de felinos con la presencia/ausencia en cada área. Se realizó un dendrograma y un análisis no métrico multidimensional para comparar la similitud entre áreas protegidas y especies. El hallazgo significativo es la ausencia del jaguar en las áreas protegidas de la región Central de Honduras, donde posiblemente se ha dado su extirpación. El puma, el ocelote, el caucel y el yaguarundí, se registran en las tres regiones del país. Al comparar la composición de los felinos en las tres regiones usando el análisis de similitud, este presentó diferencias significativas entre las áreas protegidas evaluadas. La región Central mostró menor composición que la región del Caribe y la Moskitia. La región de la Moskitia hondureña se muestra como la región con mayor resilencia para mantener las cinco especies de felinos.Palabras clave: Composición, conglomerados, escalamiento multi-dimesional no métrico (nmds), análisis de similitud (anosim), disimilitud, Moskitia. ABSTRACTHonduras is territory of five species of cats, jaguar (Panthera onca), puma (Puma concolor), ocelots (Leopardus pardalis), margay (Leopardus wiedii) and the yaguarundi (Puma yagouaroundi). The composition of the five cats in 15 protected areas was compared grouped in three regions: the Moskitia, Caribbean and Central region with different life zones, ecosystems and altitudinal levels. Cat detection was evaluated by presence/absence in each protected area. Cluster analysis and non- metric multidimentional scaling were used to compare similarity between protected areas and species. The significant finding is the absence of the jaguar in protected areas in the Central Region of Honduras confirming local extirpation. Puma, ocelots, margay and the yaguarundi are present in the three regions.

Abstract:
The margay cat inhabits preserved tropical forests. Its geographical distribution extents from the north of Mexico, Central America, Peru, Paraguay, Ecuador and Brazil. We report the therapeutic management and resolution of clinical signs in two margay cats (Leopardus wiedii), who presented skin lesions characterized by areas of alopecia predominantly located on the back, ears, neck and front legs. Microscopic evaluation of skin scrapings revealed the presence of mites identified as Notoedres sp and Sarcoptes sp, as well as the presence of artrospores. Treatment consisted of administration of itraconazole (5 mg/kg PO, 24 h) and ivermectin (300 mcg SC). The animals were transferred to a new enclosure previously treated with iodine and chlorine. After 11 weeks of treatment there was complete remission of lesions, and no recurrence was observed.

Entre janeiro de 2005 e dezembro de 2006 foram realizados estudos sobre a composição e abundância relativa dos mamíferos de médio e grande porte do Parque Estadual do Turvo. Para tanto, foram utilizados registros de armadilhas fotográficas além de visualizações e dados sobre presença e ausência de pegadas ao longo de transectos pré-determinados. No total foram registradas 29 espécies de mamíferos de médio e grande porte, das quais Dasyprocta azarae Lichtenstein, 1823 e Sylvilagus brasiliensis (Linnaeus, 1758) foram as espécies com maior número de registros. No que se refere a Carnivora, Nasua nasua (Linnaeus, 1766) e Leopardus pardalis (Linnaeus, 1758) tiveram os maiores índices de registro, enquanto Leopardus tigrinus (Schreber, 1775), Leopardus wiedii (Schinz, 1782) e Galictis cuja (Molina 1782) os menores. Entre os ungulados apenas Pecari tajacu (Linnaeus, 1758) mostrou-se freqüente, sendo a quarta espécie em número de registros. Algumas espécies comuns em outros ambientes apresentaram baixos índices de registro no Parque Estadual do Turvo, tais como Dasypus novemcinctus Linnaeus, 1758 e Didelphis albiventris Lund, 1840. Finalmente, constata-se a provável extinção local de Tayassu pecari (Link, 1795), uma vez que não foram obtidos registros de sua presença ao longo do estudo. A conservação dos mamíferos de médio e grande porte do Parque está fortemente associada à preservação do "Corredor Verde de Misiones", que provavelmente representa uma área fonte para diversas espécies.

ResumenEl margay (Leopardus wiedii) y el yaguarundi (Herpailurus yagouaroundi) son felinos medianos neotropicales de los cuales existen pocos estudios en Guatemala. Ambas especies se conocen principalmente por observaciones esporádicas y en rara ocasión son referenciadas geográficamente. En este trabajo reportamos la presencia de margay y yaguarundi en la Reserva Natural Ranchitos del Quetzal, Purulhá, Baja Verapaz. Nuestras observaciones se basan en registros de cámaras trampa colocadas en un parche de bosque nuboso entre 1,600 y 1,900 msnm durante 2017 y 2019. Registramos la presencia de yaguarundi a 31 km al sureste del sitio reportado más cercano, lo que extendió su área de distribución en Guatemala. Adicionalmente, confirmamos la presencia de margay a más de 1,500 msnm en bosque nuboso de Baja Verapaz, lo cual extendió su área de distribución 30 km al sureste del sitio reportado más cercano en Guatemala.Palabras clave: cámaras trampa, distribución, Guatemala, mamíferos, margay, yaguarundi.AbstractThe margay (Leopardus wiedii) and jaguarundi (Herpailurus yagouaroundi) are medium-sized neotropical felines for which few studies have been conducted in Guatemala. Both species are mainly known from sporadic observations and are rarely geographically referenced. We report the presence of margay and jaguarundi in the Private Natural Reserve Ranchitos del Quetzal, Purulhá, Baja Verapaz, Guatemala. We base our records on observations using camera traps placed in a cloud forest between 1,600 and 1,900 mamsl during 2017 and 2019. We recorded the presence of jaguarundi 31 km SE of the closest registered site, increasing its reported distribution area in Guatemala. Additionally, we report the presence of margay over 1,500 mamsl in the cloud forest of Baja Verapaz, which increases its distribution by 30 km SE of the closest registered site in Guatemala up to date.Key words: camera traps, distribution, Guatemala, jaguarundi, mammals, margay.

ResumenDe las seis especies de felinos silvestres que habitan en México, es del margay o tigrillo (Leopardus wiedii) una de las que menos información se tiene. En Nayarit no se cuenta con información detallada de su distribución a nivel estatal, encontrando únicamente dos registros para esta especie. Como parte de un muestreo piloto utilizando cámaras trampa en el parque natural La Montaña Encantada, Municipio de Xalisco, Nayarit, se obtuvieron cuatro registros de margay. Una fotografía se tomó en un arroyo en una selva mediana subcaducifolia, mientras que los tres restantes se obtuvieron en un camino de terracería de un bosque de latifoliadas, camino que también fue utilizado por personas a pie y en vehículo. Tres de las cuatro imágenes corresponden al mismo individuo, mientras que la cuarta no pudo ser identificada por ser del costado izquierdo del organismo. Además por la pérdida del hábitat natural, se detectaron gatos y perros ferales, lo que representa un peligro para la permanencia de esta especie en la zona. Los registros del presente trabajo confirman la presencia del margay en el estado y constituye el primer registro para el municipio de Xalisco, ampliando su distribución conocida 83.7 km suroeste y 43.7 km sureste de los registros previos.Palabras clave: carnívoros, felinos, Nayarit, margay.AbstractOf the six species of wild cats that inhabit Mexico, it is the margay or tigrillo (Leopardus wiedii) one of the least information available. In Nayarit, there is no information on its distribution at the state level with only two records for this species. As part of a pilot study in La Montaña Encantada natural park, municipality of Xalisco, Nayarit, four records of margay were obtained. One photograph was obtained in a dry stream surrounded by tropical deciduous forest, while the other three were taken on a dirt road from an oak forest. This road was also used by people on foot and by vehicle. Three of the four images corresponded to the same individual, while the fourth could not be identified because the picture shows the left side of the organism. In addition to the loss of natural habitat, feral cats and dogs were detected, which represents a danger for the permanence of this species in the area. The records of this work confirm the presence of the margay in the state, represents the first record for the Municipality of Xalisco, and extend its known distribution 83.7 km to the southwest and 43.7 km to the southeast of the previous records.Key words: carnivores, felines, Nayarit, margay.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to survey the species of large and medium-sized terrestrial mammals occurring at Serra do Brigadeiro State Park (SBSP). Data was compiled from two studies carried out in 2008. Data was collected through sand plots and camera traps. Thirteen species were recorded, one that had not been registered before (Leopardus wiedii) and one exotic (Canis lupus familiaris). Species richness estimate for camera trapping was 13.53±1.75. For the sand plots, estimate was lower (9±1.73 species). The low number of inventories focusing on large and medium-sized terrestrial mammals in the Mantiqueira region of the Atlantic forest and the presence of the domestic dogs within the Park limits emphasizes the need for monitoring programs to identify the major threats to preserved areas in the region.

Estas especies son difíciles de observar y hay pocos estudios, por lo que no se cuenta con registros previos en la zona de estudio. El estudio se realizó entre julio 2018 y julio 2019 con 22 cámaras trampa distribuidas en bosque de pino-encino, bosque de encino-pino, y selva baja caducifolia con un rango de separación entre las mismas de 170 m a 1,300 m. Se compararon los registros fotográficos con registros previos mediante el ingreso de coordenadas a un sistema de información geográfica. Se registró mediante foto-trampeo y observación directa a Herpailurus yagouaroundi, Leopardus pardalis, Leopardus wiedii, Lontra longicaudis, Panthera onca, Coendou mexicanus, Spilogale pygmaea y Tamandua mexicana; estos mamíferos están incluidos como especies en categoría de riesgo de acuerdo con la Norma Oficial Mexicana NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2020. Nuestros resultados son de relevancia para el conocimiento mastozoológico en el estado de Guerrero; antes del presente trabajo no se contaba con información sobre la presencia de estas especies en el área de estudio ni en localidades cercanas.

Abstract:
The diet of some sympatric carnivore species in three Atlantic Forest remnants of Southern Brazil was studied in order to assess their food niche. We conducted monthly field trips between February 2003 and January 2004 to collect fecal samples that were subsequently examined together with others collected sporadically between November 1994 and January 2003. Of the 416 samples analysed, 198 had the "author" species identified through microscopic analysis guard hairs, which revealed the presence of 10 carnivores and some information about their diet. Puma yagouaroundi had the largest dietary niche breadth, whereas Leopardus tigrinus and Nasua nasua showed the lowest values. Extensive niche overlap was observed between L. tigrinus and N. nasua, L. tigrinus and L. wiedii, and between L. tigrinus and L. pardalis. Data presented here not only increases the understanding of carnivore feeding ecology, but also contributes towards their conservation in the study region and other fragmented landscapes in Brazil and neighboring countries.

Abstract:
Neotropical cloud forests are one of the most biodiverse yet threatened ecosystems with deforestation and hunting creating major problems. We report a non-volant mammal species inventory for Cusuco National Park, Honduras, spanning 2006–2016. Data were collected using 4 methods: tracks and signs, camera trapping, direct sightings and live trapping. Recorded species of conservation importance included Central American red brocket (Mazama temama (Kerr, 1792)), Baird’s tapir (Tapirus bairdii (Gill, 1865)), margay (Leopardus wiedii (Schinz, 1821)), and jaguar (Panthera onca (Linnaeus, 1758)); the latter recorded for the first time. Cusuco National Park is a site of strategic geographical importance within the Central American jaguar corridor. In total, 43 species were recorded from 26 families. We demonstrate the impact of zonal protection measures with higher mammal abundance recorded in the park’s highly protected core compared to the less protected buffer zone. We advise continued monitoring to provide robust time-series of population trends.

Abstract:
Piedras Blancas National Park, in southern Costa Rica, is an important component of two biological corridors connecting the Osa Peninsula (Corcovado National Park) and La Amistad International Park. Understanding the mammal community composition of Piedras Blancas will provide baseline data to evaluate the success of conservation efforts. We used camera traps and opportunistic observations to describe the medium-sized and large mammals of the park. We deployed camera traps for 1,440 trap nights (2016-2018). We detected 19 mammal species from seven orders and 13 families. Five species are globally threatened: Leopardus wiedii (Schinz, 1821), Saimiri oerstedii (Linnaeus, 1758), Ateles geoffroyi (Kuhl, 1820), Alouatta palliata (Gray, 1849), and Tapirus bairdii (Gill, 1865). We did not detect two locally threatened species, Panthera onca (Linnaeus, 1758) and Tayassu pecari (Link, 1795). Our research highlights a need for critical conservation work within the proposed biological corridor to support Costa Rica’s most threatened wildlife.

O estudo objetivou avaliar a riqueza e composição de vertebrados de médio e grande porte em latrinas ativas e inativas de ariranhas [Pteronura brasiliensis (Gmelin, 1788)], em uma Unidade de Conservação de Uso Sustentável na Amazônia Oriental Brasileira. O estudo foi realizado em 45 latrinas ao longo de 230 km nos rios Falsino e Araguari (0°55'N, 51°35'W), sendo que desse total, 24 apresentaram fezes frescas e 21 fezes velhas de ariranhas. De julho a novembro de 2012, cada latrina foi monitorada com uma armadilha fotográfica programada para operar por 24 horas. O esforço de campo resultou em 458,8 armadilhas/dia, sendo 247,5 armadilhas/dia em latrinas com fezes frescas e 211,3 armadilhas/dia com fezes velhas. Foram obtidos registros de 22 espécies de vertebrados. A maior parte das espécies registradas foram mamíferos (n = 13), seguida por aves (n = 6), e répteis (n = 3). As espécies mais frequentemente fotografadas foram paca [Cuniculus paca (Linnaeus, 1766); n = 21], jaguatirica [Leopardus pardalis (Linnaeus, 1758); n =11], juriti-pupu (Leptotila verreauxi Bonaparte, 1855; n = 8), ariranha [Pteronura brasiliensis (Gmelin, 1788); n = 7], e anta [Tapirus terrestris (Linnaeus, 1758); n = 6], que foram responsáveis por 55,8% de todos os registros. A maior parte dos registros (69,5%) foram obtidos em latrinas com fezes frescas e o número de espécies foi maior (n = 19) do que os registrados em latrinas com fezes velhas (n = 15). No entanto, a dissimilaridade entre a comunidade de vertebrados entre latrinas com fezes frescas e velhas não diferiu. A média de visitação em latrinas com fezes frescas foi ligeiramente superior do que em latrinas com fezes velhas, embora essa diferença tenha sido apenas marginalmente significativa. Entretanto, houve uma diminuição no número de registros de felinos [Leopardus pardalis, Leopardus wiedii (Schinz, 1821) e Panthera onca (Linnaeus, 1758)], marginalmente significativo em latrinas com fezes frescas. Dessa forma, a presença de fezes frescas em latrinas ativas de ariranhas parecem aumentar o registro de espécies de vertebrados, sendo especialmente importante para os grupos que apresentam guilda trófica similar.

Abstract:
Paso Centurión is one of the most diverse areas of Uruguay. It is legally protected at local and national level, however, there are different interests competing for its land use and management. With the aim to document the biodiversity of the area together with the local people, the NGO JULANA has been conducting a participatory monitoring process with camera traps since 2013. Here, we present a list of 23 medium and large-size mammal species documented in the area and a standardised dataset of occurrence records. Top observations include the last Chrysocyon brachyurus seen in Uruguay, the first record of Herpailurus yagouaroundi in the country and the second report of Leopardus munoai in the area. We also highlight the frequent observation of numerous rare species such as Tamandua tetradactyla, Leopardus wiedii, Cabassous tatouay, Coendou spinosus and Cuniculus paca. Although the cameras were located within only a few metres of the houses of the local people, some of the rarest and most elusive species in the country were reported. This suggests a possible coexistence between people – their socio-economic practices – and nature in the area. Our work underlines the importance of the recent inclusion of Paso Centurión and Sierra de Ríos to the National System of Protected Areas under the proposed category of ‘Protected Landscape’. Collectively, in a context of global change and lack of biodiversity data on species distribution, we emphasise the value of these records for the knowledge of mammals in Uruguay and the need to extend and continue monitoring this area.

Abstract:
We evaluated current uses of wild mammals by indigenous and mestizo communities in Mexico by extracting data from 59 sources published or produced between 1987–2017, covering data from 240 localities and 3,905 questionnaires. We then calculated a Cultural Value Index (CVI) previously applied to plants to quantify resource use and assess the cultural significance of each mammal. A total of 82 species were reported, and the animals with the highest cultural importance according to their CVI (in brackets) were two species of deer (Odocoileus virginianus [18.32] and Mazama temama [10.04]), as well as the nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus [14.18]), white-nosed coati (Nasua narica [14.75]), collared peccary (Pecari tajaccu [11.90]), northern raccoon (Procyon lotor [11.28]) and spotted paca (Cuniculus paca [9.84]). The most common uses were for food, to reduce the damage or harm they cause, and for medicinal purposes, with O. virginianus, P. lotor, N. narica, and D. novemcinctus frequently hunted for all these reasons. Our analysis also highlighted the hunting of rarer species of national conservation concern, including commercial trading of body parts of the felids Panthera onca, Leopardus pardalis, and Leopardus wiedii. By quantifying the ethnozoological significance of wildlife to indigenous communities, indices such as CVI provide a robust measure of the extent of use and preference for particular species or taxa. This adds to the body of evidence used to develop effective regulations and laws related to harvesting and hunting, and helps promote a more sustainable and long-term approach to the use of natural resources.

Abstract:
The margay (Leopardus wiedii) belongs to Carnivora order and present’s nocturnal habits. There are few studies using this specie, whereas it is between feline species vulnerable to extinction. Thus, we propose a descriptive study about female genital system and behavior of the arteries responsible for the blood supply to these organs in margay. It used one exemplary victim of poaching that to death. The animal was stored in freezer. Subsequent to defrost at room temperature, it proceeded with the solution injection Leoprene Latex ‘650’ colored in red for better identification of vessels before the adjacent strutures. The specimen was fixed using an aqueous 10% formaldehyde with subsequent immersion in the same fixative solution. The genital system were dissected and the organs and arterial branches were identified and photodocumented. The female genital system of margay consists of a pair of ovaries, uterus with a pair of uterine horns, vagina and vulva. The arterial distribution of female system have a common vessel to iliac artery which branches and leads to internal pudendal artery sends a branch along the pudendal nerve pathway, urogenital artery. This, we performed divided into two branches, cranial and caudal. The cranial branch irrigates laterally cervix and uterine horns and caudal branch, vagina and vulva. The ovarian arteries, peers, originate from abdominal aorta only vascularization the ovaries. The female genital system and vascularization of the genitals organs of margay resembles of domestic carnivores including cats and some wild felines like the ocelot and find differences with the same description held in other domestic and wild species. https://doi.galoa.com.br/doi/10.17648/jibi-2448-0002-1-1-4163
