“…Significantly, several species identified in the Pre-colonial and Historical periods, such as Pampas deer ( Ozotoceros bezoarticus ) (Bryan, 1993), Brazilian tapir, white-lipped peccary, and red brocket deer are no longer documented in the region (Carvalho-Junior, 2022; Dornelles et al, 2017). The last recorded sightings of tapirs and peccaries in Babitonga Bay date back to 1996, while the last record of a red brocket deer was in 2001 (Cherem et al, 2004).…”

“…Certain species, including deer, capybara, peccary and also ocelot ( Leopardus pardalis ), are also exploited for medicinal purposes (Hanazaki et al, 2009). Data on native non-volant terrestrial mammals was obtained from surveys performed in Babitonga Bay between 1909 and 2016 (Carvalho-Junior, 2022; Cherem et al, 2004; Dornelles et al, 2017; Ima, 2009) and complemented by the aforementioned archaeological data, resulting in a total of 53 species.…”

Background and research aim: Escalating anthropogenic threats to the Atlantic Forest, a renowned biodiversity hotspot, has placed the region in the spotlight for current conservation efforts. Faunal overexploitation and habitat degradation are among key factors driving the region’s recent declines in faunal populations and biodiversity. Assessing the scale of these impacts is complicated by the near-complete absence of historical reference baselines. Methodology: Here, we provide a contribution to bridge this knowledge gap by analysing faunal remains from two historical archaeological sites, Morro Grande 1 (MG1) and Praia Grande Unidade 21 (PG-U21), in Babitonga Bay (Santa Catarina state, Brazil) dated between 1750 to 1950 AD. Results: Our results revealed that fishing and hunting played a crucial role in household consumption and economic livelihoods during the European colonisation of southern Brazil. Native terrestrial mammals made up a significant proportion of faunal remains at both sites. This suggests that species currently undergoing population declines were exploited in the region for at least the past two centuries. Conclusion: This study provides compelling evidence that the selective hunting of medium- and large-bodied native terrestrial mammals has persisted in the region for over 4500 years, and requires us to reconsider the idea of a heavy reliance on domestic animals during early European colonisation of southern Brazil. Our study thus traces the causes of regional terrestrial mammal defaunation back to the Pre-colonial and Historical times. Implication for conservation: We recommend the integration of historical and archaeological data into modern faunal population assessments and conservation initiatives to set more informed reference baselines.

“…Em área urbana no oeste da Bahia, Santos e Calado (2014) estudaram os mosquitos (Diptera: Culicidae) com o objetivo de verificar a presença de espécies de interesse em saúde pública. Em fragmentos florestais urbanos da bacia hidrográfica do Rio Cachoeira, Joinville-SC, Dornelles et al (2017) registraram 32 espécies de mamíferos, incluindo gambás, tamanduás, morcegos, graxaim e gato-do-mato. Na Unidade de Conservação "Parque Estadual Dois Irmãos", localizado no Recife-PE, inserido totalmente em área urbana, Melo et al (2018) registraram 34 espécies de anfíbios pertencentes a 10 famílias e 27 espécies de répteis, de 17 famílias.…”

O crescimento urbano tem alterado cada vez mais às características naturais dos ecossistemas em áreas povoadas, resultando na redução de áreas naturais e de biodiversidade. Para minimizar os impactos negativos da expansão urbana são criadas as áreas verdes e áreas protegidas. Neste contexto, este estudo objetivou analisar a importância do verde urbano existente na área urbana do município de João Pessoa, Paraíba, para a conservação da biodiversidade em um aglomerado populacional. O método consistiu na pesquisa exploratória e explicativa, com levantamento bibliográfico do acevo público e trabalho de campo em áreas verdes, parques, praças, remanescentes florestais, áreas de preservação e Unidades de Conservação. Foram identificadas 85 espécies arbóreas e palmeiras de 34 famílias diferentes, onde sete foram enquadradas em perigo de extinção. Também foram identificadas 36 espécies de aves, nove de répteis e oito mamíferos. Constatou-se uma interação entre grupos específicos da fauna com espécies da flora. O verde urbano de João Pessoa contribui para a conservação da flora nativa e espécies ameaçadas de extinção; existem grupos de aves, mamíferos e répteis utilizando o verde urbano para alimentação, abrigo ou alimentação, e; o município apresenta uma diversidade de espécies relevantes, mesmo assim, há a necessidade de criar áreas protegidas.

Biodiversity inventories contain important information about species richness, community structure, and composition, and are the first step in developing any conservation and mitigation strategies. The Atlantic Forest of South America is home to around 334 species of small-, medium-, and large-sized mammals, and is currently restricted to less than 12% of its original cover. Here, we present the ATLANTIC MAMMALS, an open data set on information on medium-and large-sized mammal assemblages in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. A total of 129 studies were compiled, including published and in press peer-reviewed papers, book chapters, theses and unpublished data. We mapped 244 assemblages, eight orders, 63 genera, and 94 species (24 of which are classified as threatened by the IUCN Red List) distributed in 128 protected and 116 unprotected areas. Species richness of the mammalian assemblages varied from 1 to 39 species (mean 15). The most recorded species in the entire biome was Dasypus novemcinctus, followed by Cerdocyon thous and Procyon cancrivorous. These data can be useful in support of macroecological studies and conservation planning strategies. Please cite this data paper when the data are used in publications. We also request that researchers and teachers inform us of how they are using the data.
