Los Glyptodontinae (Xenarthra, Glyptodontidae) del Piso/Edad Chapadmalalense (Plioceno tardío): revisión y aportes a su conocimiento

Abstract

Los primeros registros de Glyptodontidae Glyptodontinae corresponden al Mioceno y Plioceno temprano del extremo norte de América del Sur (Boreostemma spp.), mientras que al sur de este continente (Argentina) los hallazgos más antiguos se remontan al “Araucanense” (Mioceno tardío – Plioceno temprano) (Glyptodontidium tuberifer Cabrera). En este contexto, las formas terciarias de Glyptodontinae de la parte austral de América del Sur (“Araucanense”-Marplatense) eran poco conocidas, y estaban mayormente limitadas a fragmentos de la coraza dorsal. Más precisamente, en el Chapadmalalense superior (Plioceno tardío) se reconocía la existencia de dos especies: Paraglyptodon dubius Castellanos y P. chapalmalensis (Ameghino in Rovereto), esta última fósil guía de este Piso/Edad, mientras que el “Mesopotamiense” (Huayqueriense-Montehermosense?) (Mioceno tardío-Plioceno temprano) se caracterizaba por la especie P. paranensis Castellanos. La revisión sistemática aquí efectuada sugiere que, para el Piso/Edad Chapadmalalense superior, la única especie válida es P. chapalmalensis, en tanto que P. dubius es un sinónimo de ésta. A su vez, P. paranensis, (“Mesopotamiense”), limitado a un osteodermo mal preservado, debe ser considerado como un nomen vanum. Por último, damos a conocer el registro craneano más antiguo y completo conocido de un representante de esta subfamilia para el sur de América del Sur, tentativamente asignado a cf. Paraglyptodon chapalmalensis. Entre los principales caracteres observados sobre este nuevo material se destacan: a) todos los molariformes superiores claramente trilobulados, a excepción del M1; b) narinas de contorno subtrapezoidal; c) órbitas abiertas posteriormente, y en comunicación con la fosa temporal; d) área del tubérculo lacrimal y escotaduras orbitarias de morfología muy similar a las de Glyptodon y Paraglyptodon uquiensis; e) cráneo abruptamente truncado por el acortamiento de los nasales y premaxilares, con un perfil dorsal relativamente recto e inclinado hacia delante.

The first records of Glyptodontinae Glyptodontidae come from the Miocene and Pliocene of northern South America (Boreostemma spp.), while the oldest records in southern South America (Argentina) correspond to the "Araucanian" (late Miocene-early Pliocene) (Glyptodontidium tuberifer Cabrera). In this context, the Tertiary taxa of Glyptodontinae from southern South America ("Araucanian"-Marplatan) were scarcely known, and they were limited to a few fragments of the dorsal carapace. More precisely, in the Upper Chapadmalalan Stage/Age (late Pliocene) it is possible to recognise two species: Paraglyptodon dubius Castellanos and P. chapalmalensis (Ameghino in Rovereto); the latter is a guide fossil for this lapse. On the other hand, the "Mesopotamian" (Huayquerian-Montehermosan?; late Miocene-early Pliocene) was characterized by the presence of P. paranensis Castellanos. In this context, the systematic revision suggests that, in the Upper Chapadmalalan, the only valid species is P. chapalmalensis, while P. dubius is a synonym of this. In turn, P. paranensis, ("Mesopotamian"), a taxon represented by a very bad preserved osteoderm of the dorsal carapace, must be considered as a nomen vanum. Finally, we report and describe in this paper the oldest and most complete Tertiary skull of a southern South America Glyptodontinae, here tentatively classified as cf. Paraglyptodon chapalmalensis. Among the most interesting observed characters in this new material it stand out: a) all uper molarifoms (except M1) clearly trilobated; b) narines showing a subtrapezoidal contour; c) the orbits are posteriorly open and freely communicated with the temporal fossae; d) lacrimal tubercle area and orbital notch very similar to that observed in Glyptodon and Paraglyptodon uquiensis; e) skull abruptly truncated by the shortening of the nasals and premaxillae, with a dorsal profile relatively straight and inclined forward.
