  Pseudalopex - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pseudalopex is the genus name for South American members of the Canidae family.
The most numerous species of this genus is probably Pseudalopex griseus, the grey zorro with large ears and highly marketable, russet-fringed pelt.
The genus Lycalopex is still occasionally used for the Hoary Fox, but the species is more recently and more often included in Pseudalopex.

 Andean Flamingo - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Like all flamingos it lays a single chalky white egg on a mud mound.
Its population in Northern Chile was badly hit by drought, which cause the breeding lagoon areas to dry up, either preventing nest building, or allowing predation especially from the Culpeo Fox, Pseudalopex culpaeus.
Andean Flamingos, like all the group, feed by filtering small items from water with their specialised bills.

 Wolf Song of Alaska: Wild Canids in South America
The majority of canids found in South America are commonly referred to as "foxes".
Given the large international trade in the species (100,000 pelts per year 1980-1985, IUCN 1988), the potential for rapid and irreversible loss of the species is great.

 IngentaConnect External brain anatomy in relation to the phylogeny of Caninae (C...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-21)
Two distinctive features are recognized, that can be traced back in the fossil record: the sulcal pattern medial to the coronal sulci, and the shape and relative size of the proreal gyrus.
Four types are described for the first feature: (1) orthogonal: Canis, Lycaon, Cuon, Atelocynus, Speothos, (2) pentagonal: Vulpes, Alopex, Otocyon,†Eucyon, (3) parenthesis-like: †Dusicyon, Pseudalopex, Chrysocyon, (4) heart-shaped: Urocyon, Cerdocyon, Pseudalopex culpaeus, Nyctereutes.
On the basis of these features some phylogenetic interpretations are presented: the fossil Asian Nyctereutes is close to Cerdocyon, Speothos is close to Atelocynus, Chrysocyon is not related to Canis, Urocyon differs from Vulpes and Pseudalopex culpaeus differs from the rest of the Pseudalopex species.

Sexual dimorphism and sex identification in the South American culpeo fox, Pseudalopex culpaeus (Carnivora : Canidae)
Sexual dimorphism is analysed in skulls of the culpeo fox, Pseudalopex culpaeus, through multivariate and univariate approaches.
The species shows a moderate level of sexual dimorphism with most cranial variables being, on average, 5% larger in males.
