Seguimos un ordenamiento taxonómico para las categorías supragenéricas, pero alfabético para los niveles inferiores. Incorporamos y señalamos los cambios taxonómicos ocurridos desde la última versión publicada en diciembre de 2020. Para la elaboración de esta lista mantenemos una constante revisión de las publicaciones científicas generadas y los cambios taxonómicos ocurridos. La actual versión de la lista de mamíferos del Ecuador incluye 457 especies nativas, pertenecientes a 13 órdenes, 52 familias y 207 géneros, cifra que representa un incremento de 2 % especies en relación con la versión anterior. Los órdenes de mamíferos con la mayor riqueza en Ecuador son Chiroptera (178 especies), Rodentia (126), Artiodactyla (40) y Carnivora (36). También documentamos otras 29 especies esperadas, 53 endémicas, tres extintas, 11 presentes en la zona antártica ecuatoriana y 17 especies introducidas al país. Palabras clave: cambios taxonómicos, especies antárticas, especies endémicas, especies extintas, especies introducidas, especies nativas, referencias bibliográficas, riqueza. Abstract We present an updated version of the official checklist of mammals of Ecuador, an effort of the Asociación Ecuatoriana de Mastozoología (Ecuadorian Association of Mammalogy), with the support of the Fundación Mamíferos y Conservación and the three main mammals collections in the country: INABIO (Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad-Museo Ecuatoriano de Ciencias Naturales), MEPN (Museo de Historia Natural Gustavo Orcés de la Escuela Politécnica Nacional) and QCAZ (Museo de Zoología de la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador). We follow a taxonomic ordering for the suprageneric categories, but alphabetical for lower levels. We incorporate and indicate the taxonomic changes that have occurred since the last versión published in December 2020. For the elaboration of this list we maintain a constant review of the scientific publications generated and the taxonomic changes that have occurred. The current version of the list of mammals of Ecuador includes 457 native species, belonging to 13 orders, 52 families, and 207 genera, a number that represents an increase of 2% species in relation to the last version published. The mammalian orders with the highest richness in Ecuador are Chiroptera (178 species), Rodentia (126), Artiodactyla (40), and Carnivora (36). We also document another 29 expected species, 53 endemics, three extincts, 11 present in the Ecuadorian Antarctic zone, and 17 species introduced to the country. Key words: Antarctic species, bibliographical references, endemic species, extinct species, introduced species, native species, species richness, taxonomic changes. 3 Mamíferos del Ecuador: lista oficial actualizada de especies Mammals of Ecuador: official updated species checklist Tirira, Brito, Burneo, Carrera-Estupiñán y Comisión de Diversidad de la AEM (versión 2021.1) ISBN: 978-9942-8584-4-3 http://aem.mamiferosdelecuador.com CONTENIDO / CONTENTS Especies nativas / Native Species Orden / order Didelphimorphia Orden / order Paucituberculata Orden / order Sirenia Orden / order Cingulata Orden / order Pilosa Orden / order Primates Orden / order Rodentia Orden / order Lagomorpha Orden / order Eulipotyphla Orden / order Chiroptera Orden / order Carnivora Orden / order Perissodactyla Orden / order Artiodactyla Suborden / suborder Tylopoda Suborden / suborder Suina Suborden / suborder Ruminantia Suborden / suborder Whippomorpha Especies no descritas o de inclusión pendiente / Undescribed species or pending inclusion Especies endémicas / Endemic Species Especies extintas a partir de 1500 / Extinct species from 1500 Especies presentes en la Zona Antártica Ecuatoriana / Species present in the Ecuadorian Antarctic Zone Especies introducidas domésticas y cimarrones / Domestic and cimarron introduced species Literatura citada / References Simbología de los colores utilizados / Symbology of the colors used: En negro, especies sin cambios desde de la última versión publicada / In black, species unchanged since the last published version (2020.2) En rojo, especies nuevas descritas a partir de la última versión publicada / In red, new species described since the last published version (2020.2).

    July 4, 2011 The Chocó-Darién Conservation Corridor A Project Design Note for Validation to Climate, Community, and Biodiversity (CCB) Standards (2nd Edition). CCB Project Design Document – July 4, 2011 Executive Summary Colombia is home to over 10% of the world’s plant and animal species despite covering just 0.7% of the planet’s surface, and has more registered species of birds and amphibians than any other country in the world. Along Colombia’s northwest border with Panama lies the Darién region, one of the most diverse ecosystems of the American tropics, a recognized biodiversity hotspot, and home to two UNESCO Natural World Heritage sites. The spectacular rainforests of the Darien shelter populations of endangered species such as the jaguar, spider monkey, wild dog, and peregrine falcon, as well as numerous rare species that exist nowhere else on the planet. The Darién is also home to a diverse group of Afro-Colombian, indigenous, and mestizo communities who depend on these natural resources. On August 1, 2005, the Council of Afro-Colombian Communities of the Tolo River Basin (COCOMASUR) was awarded collective land title to over 13,465 hectares of rainforest in the Serranía del Darién in the municipality of Acandí, Chocó in recognition of their traditional lifestyles and longstanding presence in the region. If they are to preserve the forests and their traditional way of life, these communities must overcome considerable challenges. During 2001- 2010 alone, over 10% of the natural forest cover of the surrounding region was converted to pasture for cattle ranching or cleared to support unsustainable agricultural practices.

It is widespread in forest and woodlands as well as being able to live in and around buildings. It will feed on and damage almost any edible thing. The ship rat is most frequently identified with catastrophic declines of birds on islands. It is very agile and often frequents tree tops searching for food and nesting there in bunches of leaves and twigs. view this species on IUCN Red List Species Description A slender rat with large hairless ears, the ship rat (Rattus rattus) may be grey-brown on the back with either a similarly coloured or creamish-white belly, or it may be black all over. The uniformly- coloured tail is always longer than the head and body length combined. Its body weight is usually between 120 and 160 g but it can exceed 200 g. The work of Yosida (1980) and his co-workers has shown that there are two forms of R. rattus that differ in chromosome number. The more widespread Oceanic form has 38 chromosomes and is the ship rat of Europe, the Mediterranean region, America, Australia and New Zealand.

  • Matses Indian Rainforest Habitat Classification and Mammalian Diversity in Amazonian Peru
    Journal of Ethnobiology 20(1): 1-36 Summer 2000 MATSES INDIAN RAINFOREST HABITAT CLASSIFICATION AND MAMMALIAN DIVERSITY IN AMAZONIAN PERU DAVID W. FLECK! Department ofEveilltioll, Ecology, alld Organismal Biology Tile Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 43210-1293 JOHN D. HARDER Oepartmeut ofEvolution, Ecology, and Organismnl Biology Tile Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 43210-1293 ABSTRACT.- The Matses Indians of northeastern Peru recognize 47 named rainforest habitat types within the G61vez River drainage basin. By combining named vegetative and geomorphological habitat designations, the Matses can distinguish 178 rainforest habitat types. The biological basis of their habitat classification system was evaluated by documenting vegetative ch<lracteristics and mammalian species composition by plot sampling, trapping, and hunting in habitats near the Matses village of Nuevo San Juan. Highly significant (p<:O.OOI) differences in measured vegetation structure parameters were found among 16 sampled Matses-recognized habitat types. Homogeneity of the distribution of palm species (n=20) over the 16 sampled habitat types was rejected. Captures of small mammals in 10 Matses-rc<:ognized habitats revealed a non-random distribution in species of marsupials (n=6) and small rodents (n=13). Mammal sighlings and signs recorded while hunting with the Matses suggest that some species of mammals have a sufficiently strong preference for certain habitat types so as to make hunting more efficient by concentrating search effort for these species in specific habitat types. Differences in vegetation structure, palm species composition, and occurrence of small mammals demonstrate the ecological relevance of Matses-rccognized habitat types. Key words: Amazonia, habitat classification, mammals, Matses, rainforest. RESUMEN.- Los nalivos Matslis del nordeste del Peru reconacen 47 tipos de habitats de bosque lluvioso dentro de la cuenca del rio Galvez.

  • Northern Ecuador, 2010
    Northern Ecuador, February 13th ʹ March 5h 2010 This was mainly a birding trip made by myself, Steven De Saeger and Filiep T͛Jollyn, but we all have an interest in all kinds of animals. This was also one of my last trips without a decent camera, so the few pictures in this report were all taken with a compact camera. The highlight of the trip in fact was one of the triggers for me to buy a decent camera͙ Most of the report will be some short notes about which species were seen where (I wrote this more than four years later, so I don͛t recall all details about trails etc. ʹ a good lesson to myself: don͛t wait too long to write a report!). Saturday February 13th 2010 Filiep and I flew in via Atlanta, and Steven from Madrid. Upon arriving in Atlanta, we experienced a huge snow storm, with many flights being delayed or even cancelled. Fortunately, after waiting for some hours, our flight left with a delay of about 5 hours. We met Steven and our guide for the first day at the airport well after midnight, and quickly set off towards Pululahua Crater. This night drive resulted in the first mammal of the trip, a Tapiti. The rest of the day I got a first impression of birding in South America, but no more mammals were seen. Sunday February 14th 2010 An early drive to the airport, for a short flight over the Andes, brought us to Coca, from where we would be taken to the Amazon.
