“…Considering the species registered through Sherman® and Tomahawk® live traps, pitfalls, camera traps, sightings and tracks, the richness of mammals found in RPPN Rio das Pedras is similar to the one registered at Parque Estadual do Desengano (24 species; Modesto et al 2008a) and at Santuário da Vida Silvestre da Serra da Concórdia (20 species; Modesto et al 2008b) ( Table 2). Both of the mentioned areas had the same effort and sampling design than the one applied in the present study.…”

“…The high number of captures of T. dimidiatus compared to other species is expected, since the species from the genus Trinomys have a broad distribution in Brazil (Lara et al 2002) and are very common in faunal inventories, especially in the Atlantic Forest (e.g. Pereira et al 2001;Geise et al 2004;Vaz 2005;Modesto et al 2008a;Modesto et al 2008b). As suggested by Brown (1984), there is a positive relationship between distribution and abundance of species.…”

The Atlantic Forest is recognized as a global hotspot for having one of the highest rates of endemism and biodiversity. Its portion in the state of Rio de Janeiro is extremely fragmented and reduced. The present study seeks to get information on the non-volant mammals of RPPN Rio das Pedras in municipality of Mangaratiba, state of Rio de Janeiro. The rapid mammal's survey was accomplished by the use of pitfalls, live traps, transects and camera traps. We recorded 23 non-volant species that represent 13

“…The high richness of bats, compared with others studies (e.g., Muylaret et al, 2014;Novaes et al, 2014c;Souza et al, 2015) may be explained by two non-mutually exclusive hypotheses: (1) high diversity of bats in natural environments, which can represent up to 50% of species in the mammal community of a region (Timm, 1994;Hutterer et al, 1995;Modesto et al, 2008); and (2) differential sampling effort for different groups, once the bats have been a major focus of field research over recent years. In the present study, the most abundant bat species were S. lilium and A. lituratus, which together account for more than half of all captures.…”

AbstractForest areas in southeastern Brazil were intensively fragmented by historical processes of land use, and even today this region is under severe anthropic pressure due to agricultural, mining, tourism, and high urban expansion. However, contemporaneous studies on its biodiversity, particularly those focusing on remaining fauna in higly fragmented landscapes are necessary. In the present study, we present a species list of mammals in forest remnants of an agricultural landscape from southeastern Brazil (RPPN Fazenda Lagoa), located in an ecotone of Atlantic Forest and Cerrado, with additional information on habitat use, vulnerability to roadkill and considerations for conservation purposes. We recorded 63 species of Chiroptera, Carnivora, Rodentia, Didelphimorphia, Primates, Cingulata, Pilosa, Cetartiodactyla and Lagomorpha. Approximately 15% of the species are under some risk of extinction, including the endemic buffy-tufted-ear marmoset (Callithrix aurita). We also recorded invasive species and domestic dogs and cats living in feral condition. Ten species were reported as roadkills in the roads that give access to the RPPN. We concluded that these remnants play an important role in the maintenance and conservation of the mammals, serving as one of the last refuges for wildlife in a severely deforested region.Keywords: conservation, diversity, forest fragments, Mammalia, richness, roadkill. ResumoAs florestas do sul de Minas Gerais foram intensamente fragmentadas pelos processos históricos de uso do solo, e ainda hoje essa região está sob severa pressão antrópica devido à ampliação agrícola, mineradora, turística e urbana. No entanto, estudos contemporâneos sobre sua biodiversidade, particularmente sobre a biodiversidade remanescente em paisagens profundamente fragmentadas são necessários. No presente estudo, apresentamos uma lista de espécies de mamíferos em remanescentes florestais de uma paisagem agrícola do sudeste do Brasil (RPPN Fazenda Lagoa), localizada em ecótono de Mata Atlântica e Cerrado, com informações adicionais sobre uso de habitats, vulnerabilidade a atropelamentos e considerações para a conservação. Registramos 63 espécies de Chiroptera, Carnivora, Rodentia, Didelphimorphia, Primates, Cingulata, Pilosa, Cetartiodactyla e Lagomorpha. Cerca de 15% das espécies estão em algum risco de extinção, incluindo o endêmico sagui-da-serra-escuro, Callithrix aurita. Também registramos espécies silvestres invasoras, cães e gatos domésticos vivendo em condição feral. Dez espécies foram registradas como vítimas de atropelamento nas estradas de acesso a RPPN. Nós concluímos que esses remanescentes possuem um importante papel na manutenção e conservação da mastofauna, servindo como um dos últimos refúgios para a vida silvestre de uma região severamente desmatada.

“…Em Paraíso do Tobias foram registrados 638 indivíduos, número esse que está acima da média dos verificados em levantamentos no Sudeste do Brasil (Reis et al 1996, Falcão et al 2003, Barros et al 2006, Moratelli & Peracchi 2007, Nascimento 2007, Modesto et al 2008b, Luz et al 2009), porém abaixo do ideal para amostrar satisfatoriamente os Phyllostomidae no Rio de Janeiro, que é de 1.000 capturas (Bergallo et al 2003). Embora reduzido, o esforço de coleta com redes longe de refúgios neste trabalho (oito noites), resultou em riqueza similar àquela obtida por Dias et al (2008) na Reserva Biológica do Tinguá após 31 noites, com 655 capturas Tabela 1.…”

from Paraíso do Tobias, Northwest of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Biota Neotrop. 10(4): http://www.biotaneotropica.org.br/v10n4/ en/abstract?inventory+bn01610042010. Abstract:The objective of this work is to present the first listing of bats collected in a fragment in Paraíso do Tobias located in the municipality of Miracema, Northwest of the Rio de Janeiro State. Nine nights of samplings were performed with mist nets and complemented with roosts search. A total of 678 captures and recaptures of 29 species were recorded. Platyrrhinus lineatus was the most abundant species, followed by Carollia perspicillata and Desmodus rotundus. Several species recorded, such as Natalus stramineus, Micronycteris hirsuta, and Lophostoma brasiliense, are rare in the Rio de Janeiro State. Despite the reduced sampling effort, we obtained a high richness, with more than 90% of the expected species. We obtained a considerable number of Phyllostominae (two carnivores and four predominantly gleaners insectivorous). In the areas north and northwest 32 species are now recognized.
