About This Book

A regional survey catalogs the terrestrial mammal fauna of Tamaulipas, Mexico, reporting 146 species in 72 genera and synthesizing their distributions and relations to the state's physiography and climate. It outlines elevation gradients, habitat types, floristic associations, and barriers and routes that shape faunal affinities, then provides a gazetteer, checklist, and detailed accounts of species and subspecies with notes on taxonomy, variation, and records. The monograph also reviews the history of mammal collecting in the region, methods used, and conservation concerns, and concludes with literature cited and illustrations to support identifications.
