Notes on the gross anatomy of the heart of the broad-snouted caiman, Caiman latirostris (Daudin, 1802).

The broad-snouted caiman, Caiman latirostris (Daudin, 1802), is one of the six crocodilian species from Brazil. The topography, morphology and morphometry of the broad-snouted caiman heart were studied. Data were obtained from the necropsy of four adult animals, three females and one male.
