New remains of Eleutherocercus (Xenarthra, Cingulata, Glyptodontidae) from the Pampean and Northwestern regions of Argentina: morphology and phylogeny of late Neogene Doedicurinae

Alizia Nunez-Blasco et al.

Summary: The subfamily Doedicurinae is a group of glyptodonts with unique anatomical features. Recent studies have increased our knowledge of their diversity, evolution, and geographical history. Two late Miocene-Pliocene species have been identified in Argentina, and a complete skull and a partially complete carapace have been described. Phylogenetic relationships within the Doedicurinae and their relationship with other clades have been tested, revealing new shared derived features. The latitudinal distribution of the Doedicurinae expanded rapidly during the Pliocene but began to retract in the Pleistocene.

A New Glyptodont (Xenarthra: Cingulata) from the Late Miocene of Argentina: New Clues About the Oldest Extra-Patagonian Radiation in Southern South America

Daniel Barasoain et al.

Summary: Glyptodonts are one of the most amazing Cenozoic South American mammals, with two large clades identified in South America since the early and middle Miocene. A comprehensive revision of late Miocene glyptodonts in central Argentina has revealed low diversity during this period, with only one new species recognized. This species is believed to represent the first branch of the extra-Patagonian radiation and has a fully modern morphology of the caudal tube.

Damaged glyptodontid skulls from Late Pleistocene sites of northwestern Venezuela: evidence of hunting by humans?

Alfredo A. Carlini et al.

Summary: Muaco and Taima-Taima sites in Venezuela are early human occupation sites in South America, with artifacts and preserved megafaunal remains dating back to 19,810-15,780 years ago. This study presents new visual and CT scanning analysis of glyptodont skulls from these sites, revealing intentional fractures in the fronto-parietal region caused by direct human percussion. The technique targeted areas of thinner cephalic shield for greater impact. These findings suggest human-glyptodont interaction during the Late Pleistocene, with an estimated 150-170 kg of potential food sources from an adult Glyptotherium cylindricum.

Summary: This study presents previously unpublished cranial and postcranial materials of a mysterious species of mylodontine sloths from Argentina. The research describes and compares these remains, shedding light on the taxonomic uncertainties surrounding the species. Additionally, the study reveals that the size of the mylodontine sloths increased over time.

Martin Zamorano et al.

Summary: During the Ensenadan stage in the Pampean Region of South America, giant species existed following ecogeographic patterns influenced by Bergmann's rule. Subsequent research revealed that these giant species were considerably larger than their congeneric specimens that lived after the Ensenadan-Bonaerian border, possibly due to differences in environmental conditions and feeding behavior.

Yumi Asakura et al.

Summary: The study provides a morphological and histological description of osteoderms and limb bones from Hoplophorus euphractus, offering insights into the paleobiology of the species. The preferentially transverse fibre alignment in the bone tissues of H. euphractus may indicate good resistance to compressive forces, but further research with a larger sample size is needed for conclusive results.

Late Pleistocene South American megafaunal extinctions associated with rise of Fishtail points and human population

Luciano Prates et al.

Summary: Through analyzing the temporal and spatial distribution of South American megafauna and fluted (Fishtail) projectile points, this study proposes that the direct effect of human predation was the main factor driving the decline of megafauna, with other secondary factors also contributing to the collapse of the megafaunal community.

New radiometric 40Ar-39Ar dates and faunistic analyses refine evolutionary dynamics of Neogene vertebrate assemblages in southern South America

Francisco J. Prevosti et al.

Summary: The vertebrate fossil record in the Pampean Region of Argentina plays a crucial role in South American vertebrate paleontology, providing the basis for understanding major patterns of vertebrate evolution. New 40Ar/39Ar dates and biochronological analyses help to calibrate Late Miocene-Pliocene faunal successions, establishing age ranges for different faunal stages. This information contributes to a better understanding of the timing of important evolutionary events and extinctions in South America.

New data on the diversity and chronology of the late Miocene Xenarthra (Mammalia) from Ecuador

Jose L. Roman-Carrion et al.

Summary: Xenarthra, an important endemic clade in South America during the Cenozoic, has been found in new fossil discoveries from southern Ecuador. Comparative studies reveal morphological differences with other Miocene specimens from different regions, suggesting the possibility of new taxa and indicating isolation of these putative endemic paleofauna in southern South America.

The glyptodont Eleutherocercus solidus from the late Neogene of north-western Argentina: Morphology, chronology, and phylogeny

Alizia Nunez-Blasco et al.

Summary: Glyptodonts are large armored herbivores that originated in South America and later migrated to Central and North America. The enigmatic Doedicurinae, known for the enormous Pleistocene Doedicurus, have a poorly understood evolutionary history. Research suggests a relationship between body mass and latitudinal distribution in glyptodonts, potentially influenced by climate during evolution.
