Cabassous unicinctus (Linnaeus 1758)
[Dasypus] unicinctus Linnaeus 1758 , Syst. Nat., 10th ed., Vol. 1: 50 View Cited Treatment .
Type Locality: "Africa;" restricted to "l'Amérique" by Buffon (1763), and to Surinam by Thomas (1911 a) .
Vernacular Names: Southern Naked-tailed Armadillo.
Synonyms: Cabassous undecimcinctus Illiger 1815 .
Subspecies: :
Subspecies Cabassous unicinctus subsp. unicinctus Linnaeus 1758
Subspecies Cabassous unicinctus subsp. squamicaudis Lund 1845
Distribution: South America east of the Andes from Colombia to Bolivia and Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Tamayo (1968) said Dasypus undecimcinctus Molina, 1782 , was based on a composite of an animal known as "mulita" and Cabassous unicinctus . It is doubtful that unicinctus occurred in NW Argentina (formerly part of Chile) and the name undecimcinctus Molina is best considered a nomen oblitum. The name undecimcinctus Illiger, 1815 , is a nomen nudum.
