Pantanal Jaguars from Estação Ecológica de Taiamã. After kindly sending me those 117 jaguars weight, The Chief of CENAP/ICMBio Ronaldo Morato sent me another scientifically published datas of the weights of all Pantanal jaguars captured in Estação Ecológica de Taiamã for that campaign including males and females which resulted in this study on the link bellow OCUPAÇÃO DE ÁREAS ALAGADAS POR ONÇAS-PINTADAS: MONITORAMENTO POR COLAR GPS NA ESTAÇÃO ECOLÓGICA DE TAIAMÃ,CÁCERES-MATO GROSSO file:///C:/Users/PC/AppData/Local/Temp/OCUPA%C3%87%C3%83O%20DE%20%C3%81REAS%20ALAGADAS%20POR%20ON%C3%87AS-PINTADAS%20-%20MONITORAMENTO%20POR%20COLAR%20GPS%20NA%20ESTA%C3%87%C3%83O%20ECOL%C3%93GICA%20DE%20TAIAM%C3%83,%20C%C3%81CERES-MATO%20GROSSO.pdf THE TABLE NOTE: Anderson Silva male was captured 3 times and Wendy female was captured 2 times.  *This image is copyright of its original author 102 kg Fião male (Foto: Acervo ESEC Taiamã)  *This image is copyright of its original author 102 kg Fião male getting collared.  *This image is copyright of its original author The CENAP/ICMBio team during the campaign of captures, you can see Ronaldo Morato on the middle left wearing a flashlight on his forehead. Such great guy.  *This image is copyright of its original author I was looking for these jags weights in a long time. @Balam We'll add them all to the table, including the females for the female's jaguars table. 
One thing to clarify for transparency purposes is that the GPS Study that I initially posted on my Chaco table compilation does belong to different regions where jaguars were captured as shown in the map included in the post, they're not all from the Atlantic Forest, the screenshots with green highlights from the DJs list are mine where I tried to highlight those captures I thought were from the Pantanal based on the people who made them.
So far the weights included for Chaco specimens hold ground because I was able to match the collars mentioned in the file with those from the study Space use and movement of jaguar (Panthera onca) in western Paraguay, by McBride and Thompson, where most of the captures were done in the humid and dry areas of the Chaco, but I'm waiting for certain confirmation on some details from the dataset to reaffirm those weights as belonging to the specimens captured in the aforementioned study. I will update when that happens.
About the At. Forest statement , my post have already been edited.
Some individuals sourced by Fernando Azevedo are the jaguars captured by Pró-Carnívoros. The ones by Laury Curren are At. Forest The one by Leandro and Anah are from cerrado - (the 80 kg male is probably Jacuba.) The ones sourced by Crawshaw,Tortato and Hoogestejan are captured by Panthera The ones by Rogério de Paula and Mario Haberfeld are pantanal ones. There are other ones to check.

I finally have the official data for jaguars from the Chaco in Paraguay, the biologist Rocky McBride sent me his study PROJECT JAGUAR Final REPORT 2002 – 2011 FARO MORO ECO RESEARCH, in which the weights of multiple jaguars from the Chaco, Pantanal, and Atlantic Forest of Paraguay are included. Here are the tables:  *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author The area Fortin Patria is located in the Pantanal, Mbaracaju, and Morombi in the Atlantic Forest, the rest is Chaco:  *This image is copyright of its original author The jaguars from the Paraguayan Pantanal here will be added to the Pantanal table. Further information on the areas studied, it appears as though the state of jaguars in here is very similar to that of jaguars in Brazil last century, where many are killed for consuming cattle in retaliatory attacks, plus severe habitat loss:  *This image is copyright of its original author Some males from Faro Moro here. Captures images:  *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author The next post will be the compilation table for this population, which will include the data from this study, the jaguar Qaramta from Argentina, and the male jaguar captured recently by Jeffrey Thompson that I mentioned before. He's not in this study as this study ran until 2011 and that particular jaguar was captured between 2016 and 2017.
I was right once again, Qaramta was recaptured this month and he went from 108 kg to 114 kg! Therefore he is the heaviest Chacoan jaguar on recent records, and as seen by the footage of his capture he was completely empty bellied, screenshot after someone asked for his weight:

Wilson Pantanal male 115 kg.
 *This image is copyright of its original author Yesterday I watched a video from 2012 by a brazilian TV about jaguars in Porto Jofre and its tourism with a brief interview of Fernando Tortato at Panthera headquarters (link bellow), in the video I saw a collared male that I am quite familiar with and I didn't know he was captured. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NPVwVb9H5aE Collared Wilson male with a female.  *This image is copyright of its original author So I had to get his weight with Tortato.  *This image is copyright of its original author Wilson  *This image is copyright of its original author I thought Wilson was gonna be between 100-107 kg but he is actually larger than I thought   *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author Wilson relaxing at river bank near Porto Jofre.

I had a conversation with one of the workers at BJWT who confirmed to me that Sol and his son both weight 100 kg:
 *This image is copyright of its original author  *This image is copyright of its original author Here is Sol in all his glory: It is likely that they are pure or close to pure to the Mexican genotype since melanism is relatively common among Central and North American jaguars, especially considering that the sanctuary in located in Mexico City.
43 kg eastern Amazonic male.
https://www1.folha.uol.com.br/ambiente/2...ufpa.shtml Captured for study by Researchers of Federal University of Pará in the region of Paragominas - northeast Pará - Brazil. An area extremely deforested by for livestock, logging and other purposes. The first individual captured for the project of monitoring in degraded areas was a young male, in Paragominas (PA).  *This image is copyright of its original author His age is between 3-4 years old and weight of 43 kg captured in October 2019, it was 8 months following the movements of the big cat, with register of 2.230 points of GPS in an area of 250 km2.  *This image is copyright of its original author In Mid July last year the colla's battery died and it opened automatically. ''After we got all GPS datas, we'll make a mapping of his route, type of habitat, distance from the river, movements and urban areas'' said the researcher Ana Cristina de Oliveira. ''We need to know if they stay only in the forest or if they're approaching farms where they look for resources. As they're surviving on an area where the landscape is changing very fast. We don't know when this landscape will collapse and to know this dynamic is fundamental to know what to do to preserve these populations'' she explained.  *This image is copyright of its original author
I just joined the space. I am an enthusiast of wildlife and specially jaguars. I have seen several information about the largest male jaguars ever, over 150kg, but not heard about the largest female pantanal jaguars. Where can I find more information on that? Thanks,

Thanks, Welcome Sergio, we have a collected dataset for female Pantanal jaguars here. Per the official weight provided to us by the Oncafari team, Troncha with a weight of 100 kg would be the heaviest female on record, although during her capture she yielded a weight of 110 kg which was included in the paper Mercury content in the fur of jaguars (Panthera onca) from two areas under different levels of gold mining impact in the Brazilian Pantanal by Tortato et al:  *This image is copyright of its original author

Some males from Pantanal, all of them are in the 91–140 kg range.
This just shows that Pantanal Jaguars are the largest of their species 134 kg male but only 4 years old *This image is copyright of its original author Alleged 140 kg found dead *This image is copyright of its original author 110 kg Male *This image is copyright of its original author Alleged 130+ kg *This image is copyright of its original author 115 kg *This image is copyright of its original author Another 115 kg one. *This image is copyright of its original author 123 kg *This image is copyright of its original author This should be the 158/159 kg monster record from old hunting if I remember correctly Likely the size of a lioness! *This image is copyright of its original author
Sergio! What a surprise to see you here! I am Andrea Vitanza from Quora the guy who sent you some size comparisons
