Ontogenetic and sexual variation of Oecomys bicolor (Rodentia, Cricetidae) from Peru and Ecuador

Descripción del Articulo

Oecomys is a moderately specious genus of small to medium size. Within the genus, the species O. bicolor is readily recognized; however, it has been reported individual variation in size and color from different populations suggesting that the species could be a species complex. Intraspecific inform...

Within the genus, the species O. bicolor is readily recognized; however, it has been reported individual variation in size and color from different populations suggesting that the species could be a species complex. Intraspecific information in O. bicolor is limited despite its wide distribution; but, this information is necessary for delimiting the species as well as explaining variations within populations. Therefore, in the present study 148 specimens of O. bicolor were analyzed, with the objective of evaluating the non-geographic variation of the species related to sex and age. 13 skull-dental variables were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate statistical approximations showed that sexual dimorphism is not significant; on the other hand, the ontogenic variation is considerable among young adults, these results are consistent with previous studies in sigmodontine rodents. It is recommended to continue studies of geographic variation with only ages 3, 4 and 5, and treating males and females collectively.Oecomys es un género moderadamente especioso de tamaño pequeño a mediano y coloración característica. Dentro del género, la especie O. bicolor es reconocida morfológicamente con relativa facilidad; sin embargo, se ha reportado variaciones individuales, en tamaño y color, de distintas poblaciones que sugieren la especie podría ser un complejo de especies. La información intraespecífica presente en O. bicolor es muy poca a pesar de su amplia distribución; no obstante, esta información es necesaria para la delimitación de la especie así como explicar variaciones en poblaciones.  Por ello, en el presente estudio se analizaron 148 especímenes de O. bicolor, con el objetivo de evaluar lavariación no geográfica referida al sexo y edad.  Las muestras se organizaron formando grupos según su distribución geográfica y se analizaron 13 variables cráneo-dentales. Mediante aproximaciones estadísticas univariadas y multivariadas se demostró que el dimorfismo sexual no es significativo, por otro lado la variación ontogénica es considerable entre jóvenes y adultos. Se recomienda continuar los estudios de variación geográfica tomando en cuenta las edades 3, 4 y 5, y juntando machos y hembras.Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Facultad de Ciencias Biológicas2017-12-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/rpb/article/view/1391810.15381/rpb.v24i4.13918Revista Peruana de Biología; Vol. 24 Núm. 4 (2017); 383 - 390Revista Peruana de Biología; Vol. 24 No. 4 (2017); 383 - 3901727-99331561-0837reponame:Revistas - Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstname:Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcosinstacron:UNMSMspahttps://revistasinvestigacion.unmsm.edu.pe/index.php/rpb/article/view/13918/12454Derechos de autor 2017 Maria Fernanda Menajovsky Bonifaz, Victor Raul Pacheco Torreshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.csi.unmsm:article/139182018-06-23T13:33:18Z
