Popis:	The record of Glyptotherium sp. in the Brazilian Northeastern region initiated a reinterpretation of the material previously assigned to Glyptodon and the distribution in the country. The most recent interpretation suggests that the materials found in the Brazilian Intertropical Region belong to Glyptotherium, with Glyptodon restricted to southern Brazil. However, two osteoderms with characteristics attributable to Glyptodon has been recently found in Sergipe State, Northeastern region, suggesting that the two genera occurred in this region during the Pleistocene.
