EDITORS COMMENTS
This fascinating print captures a Zaedyus pichiy, also known as the pichi armadillo, collected by none other than the renowned scientist Charles Darwin in Bahia Blanca, Argentina back in 1833. This particular species was formerly classified as Daspus minutus but has since been reclassified. The image showcases the unique protective shell of this small mammal, which is native to South America.
Armadillos are known for their hard bony armor that serves as protection against predators. The pichi armadillo, in particular, is a dwarf species that is primarily insectivorous and nocturnal in nature. Its compact size and tough exterior make it well-suited for survival in its natural habitat.
Charles Darwin's collection of this creature provides valuable insight into the diverse wildlife found in Argentina during his time. As a placental mammal belonging to the Dasypodidae family, the pichi armadillo represents an important piece of evolutionary history.
This photograph not only highlights the beauty of this unique animal but also serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts to protect vulnerable species like the pichi armadillo. It stands as a testament to both Darwin's scientific legacy and the rich biodiversity present in Bahia Blanca.
