“…This species co-occurs with Cabassous tatouay in Goiás (Rodrigues et al 2002;Sanderson & Silveira, 2003;Rocha et al 2019) and, as well as for other species of armadillos, the number of records varied between studies, depending on the type of habitat, and the degree of conservation of surveyed areas. Tolypeutes tricinctus and C. tatouay were the rarest species throughout its range in Cerrado, including Goiás (Anacleto et al 2006;Ubaid et al 2010).…”

The state of Goiás, in central Brazil, is covered mainly by the Cerrado domain, with the Alto Paraná Atlantic Forest occupying its central-southern portion. Goiás is one of the 20 Brazilian federative units without a mammal checklist. In this study, we provide the first checklist of mammals from Goiás state. We recorded mammal species based primarily on the analysis of specimens housed in scientific collections as well as on literature with associated voucher material. We listed 191 mammalian species belonging to 125 genera, 31 families and 10 orders, which represents 25.2% of the mammal species occurring in Brazil. The most speciose orders were Chiroptera (90 spp.), followed by Rodentia (43 spp.), Carnivora (19 spp.) and Didelphimorphia (17 spp.). The following orders accounted for a smaller portion of the state diversity: Cetartiodactyla (7 spp.), Cingulata (7 spp.), Primates (4 spp.), Pilosa (2 spp.), Lagomorpha (1 sp.), and Perissodactyla (1 sp.). A total of 28 species (14.7%), mainly represented by medium and large-sized mammals, are nationally threatened while 12 (6.3%) are globally threatened. Our results indicate great portions of the state lacking a proper survey of mammals, especially the northwestern portion. We discuss species richness, distribution and conservation status of the mammals of Goiás state in national and regional scenarios. We highlight the need for mammal inventories based on complementary survey techniques with the collection of vouchers in order to provide karyologic, molecular, morphologic, parasitologic, and ecological data. These informations are the basis for integrative studies that lead to the understanding of current mammalian richness and diversity. Indeed, knowledge on species richness distribution in the state will guide conservation strategies, especially in areas undergoing habitat loss and fragmentation, such as the central-southern portion of Goiás.

“…That Cabassous tatouay, greater naked-tailed armadillo, is a poorly known species has been reported by Wetzel (1982), Redford (1985), Ubaid et al (2010), Gonzales & Lanfranco (2010) and Hayssen (2014). The southernmost records of the species are from the Uruguayan provinces of Maldonado and Lavalleja (Coitiño et al, 2013).…”

ABSTRACT. Cabossous tatouay Desmarest, 1804 is considered a rare species in southern South America, and Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, records of the species are scarce and inaccurate. This study reports 40 localities for C. tatouay, and provides a map of the species' potential distribution using ecological niche modeling (ENM). The ENM indicated that in this region C. tatouay is associated with open grasslands, including the areas of "Pampas" and the open fields in the highlands of the Atlantic Forest. This study contributes to the information about the greater naked-tailed armadillo in southern Brazil, and provides data key to its future conservation.

“…The species of the genus Cabassous are still poorly known, especially C. tatouay (Ubaid et al, 2010;Superina et al, 2014). Field records of C. tatouay are rare and may be false due to external morphological similarities with other species of the genus (Oliveira et al, 2015;Massocato & Desbiez, 2017;Desbiez et al, 2018;.…”

“…Cabassous tatouay is a cryptic, solitary species with a specialist insectivorous diet (Redford, 1985;Anacleto, 2007). The few records of the species in the literature suggest that it can be nocturnal and /or diurnal (Meritt, 1985;Encarnação, 1987;Ubaid et al, 2010;Massocato & Desbiez, 2017). It is believed that C. tatouay can use both forested and open areas, but prefers forested habitats (Gonzalez & Abba, 2014;.…”

The greater naked-tailed armadillo (Cabassous tatouay) is the largest armadillo in the Cabassous genus. It can be distinguished from other species in the genus by its large body size and large ears with granular edges that extend above the top of the head. The presence of C. tatouay in some regions of Brazil and in some Brazilian biomes, such as the Pantanal wetland, was not previously confirmed. This paper presents 12 new records of C. tatouay obtained by camera traps (n = 7), direct observations (n = 1), and roadkills (n = 4) in Mato Grosso do Sul (MS), Brazil. However, two camera trap records were only 14 minutes apart and could potentially represent the same individual. Photographic records are compared with C. squamicaudis to highlight important characteristics that differentiate the species. Finally, these records of C. tatouay extend its range to western Brazil and for the first time into the Pantanal wetland near the transition to the Cerrado savanna.
