Resumo

Este projeto dá continuidade e amplia os horizontes da linha interdisciplinar de pesquisa de nossos laboratórios voltada para o estudo da sistemática e da evolução da herpetofauna neotropical e da biogeografia histórica de répteis, anfíbios e pequenos mamíferos neotropicais Pretende-se ampliar o conjunto de dados sobre os cariótipos de espécies de lagartos, anfíbios e roedores brasileiros, obtidos nas excursões do grupo, de modo a compreender melhor sua evolução cromossômica e investindo esforços em novas técnicas visando a identificação de caracteres úteis para análises filogenéticas. Complementar os estudos taxonômicos, cariotípicos e moleculares que vêm sendo realizados sobre a fauna das dunas do rio São Francisco, em especial sobre as taxas de divergência intra e interespecíficas, das espécies endêmicas. Estudar a heterocronia em Calyptommatus, dando início aos estudos ontogenéticos em Gymnophthalmini com a elaboração de tabelas de desenvolvimento que sirvam de guia para estudos sobre a biologia de desenvolvimento do grupo e, futuramente, a experimentos piloto envolvendo seqüenciamento de genes supostamente relacionados com o desenvolvimento dos membros. Esta nova linha poderá vir a ser implantada visando o conhecimento dos mecanismos genéticos que controlam a redução dos membros em várias linhagens de lagartos da família Gymnophthalmidae. Dar continuidade aos estudos citogenéticos e moleculares em lagartos do gênero Leposoma, de modo a melhor compreender as relações filogenéticas no gênero e sua diversidade, procurando investigar os mecanismos de origem da partenogênese nos clones de L.percarinatum para compará-Ios à dos clones de Gymnophthalmus underwoodii. Dar continuidade aos estudos sobre a filogenia dos lagartos da família Gymnophthalmidae, em nível morfológico, citogenético e molecular, acrescentando gêneros ainda não amostrados e buscando árvores filogenéticas baseadas em múltiplos conjuntos de caracteres. Ampliar a amostragem dos lagartos dos gêneros Gymnodactylus, Enyalius, Coleodactylus e Mabuya visando estudos morfológicos, citogenéticos e moleculares voltados para a compreensão de sua história filogenética e biogeografia histórica. Iniciar estudos comparativos em taxa selecionados da herpetofauna e mastofauna neotropical distribuídos disjuntamente nas florestas Amazônica, Atlântica e nos brejos nordestinos, de modo a obter estimativas aproximadas dos tempos de divergência dos diferentes grupos nas grandes áreas florestadas (Amazônia e Mata Atlântica) e nas ilhas de florestas remanescentes nas Caatingas. Essas estimativas serão comparadas com datações obtidas para populações insulares e continentais de lagartos do gênero Gymnodactylus e para populações disjuntas da região das dunas do rio São Francisco.
