Abstract

CHEREM, Jorge J.; SIMOES-LOPES, Paulo C.; ALTHOFF, Sérgio  and  GRAIPEL, Maurício E.. List of mammals from Santa Catarina State, southern Brazil. Mastozool. neotrop. [online]. 2004, vol.11, n.2, pp.151-184. ISSN 0327-9383.

The mammal fauna from Santa Catarina State, southern Brazil, is one of the least known of the country. Works on terrestrial mammals are scarce and new species of aquatic mammals have been registered in the last years. For that reason, a commented list of the mammals of Santa Catarina based on data gathered from scientific collections and bibliographical references are presented. One hundred and fifty-two species of confirmed occurrence, 59 species of possible occurrence and six species/subspecies with erroneous record for the state were registered.

Keywords : List; Mammals; Santa Catarina State; Southern Brazil.
