“…The majority of the recorded species are considered widely distributed, usually associated with open areas, and tolerant to human disturbances (Alves, Fonseca, & Engel, 2012;Bernardo & Melo, 2013;Dias & Bocchiglieri, 2016). Carnivora represented the highest richness, similar to that found in other studies in the Atlantic forest (Negrão & Valladares-Pádua, 2006;Kasper, Mazim, Soares, Oliveir, & Fabián, 2007;Abreu-Júnior & Köhler, 2009;Santos et al, 2013) where medium-and largesized mammals tend to present the highest richness indices in Brazil (Paglia et al, 2012). In fragmented landscapes, this group was observed frequently and did not exhibit habitat preferences, which occurred across the entire area, given that the majority of its representatives have high mobility and the ability to explore anthropogenic environments and areas close to native vegetation patches (Lyra-Jorge, Ciocheti, & Pivello, 2008).…”
