“…Nineteen new records of L. longicaudis were obtained in the municipalities along the eastern coast of Rio Grande do Norte and confirm the results of Laurentino and Sousa (2014) and Rosas-Ribeiro et al (2017) who found this species in 15 municipalities. We confirmed the occurrence records of L. longicaudis in all eight river basins studied.…”

“…The first record of the species was by Laurentino and Sousa (2014) in the municipalities of Baia Formosa, Canguaretama, Ceará-Mirim, Extremoz, Macaíba, Nísia Floresta, Parnamirim, Pedro Velho, Senador Georgino Avelino, and Vila Flor. Rosas-Ribeiro et al (2017) later updated the records in the Brazilian Northeast Region and confirmed the presence of L. longicaudis in Rio Grande do Norte in the municipalities of Macaíba, São José de Mipibu, Passagem, Santo Antônio, São José do Campestre, and Montanhas.…”

“…Lontra longicaudis is also classified as Near Threatened in northeastern Brazil and Vulnerable in the Atlantic Forest domain due to the high level of habitat degradation (Rodrigues et al 2013). Current records show that the population occurs in watersheds between the Caatinga and Atlantic Forest biomes (Rosas-Ribeiro et al 2017). In the state of Rio Grande do Norte, the Atlantic Forest is a mosaic of forest and associated ecosystems, including dense and sparse ombrophylous forest, mangrove, resting, and seaboard.…”

Lontra longicaudis (Olfers, 1818), Neotropical Otter, is a medium-sized, carnivorous, semi-aquatic mammal with a wide geographic distribution from Mexico to Uruguay. Although the number of studies on this species has been increasing, the vast majority of them focus on diet and habitat use. This paper updates the distribution of this species by providing new records from 19 municipalities (13 in the Atlantic Forest) in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. These new records are important for the conservation of L. longicaudis.

“…As informações sobre a ocorrência de L. longicaudis ainda se apresentam de forma incipiente no estado de Pernambuco, com relatos nas últimas décadas (Rosa-Ribeiro;Ranulpho & Venticinque, 2017). Os registros obtidos neste trabalho reforçam as constatações acerca da presença desse mustelídeo e refutam o entendimento de que a espécie havia sido extinta do estado, conforme sugerido por Pontes, Beltrão e Santos (2019).…”

Os mamíferos aquáticos utilizam como habitat todo o território brasileiro; entretanto, até o presente momento não se tinha uma descrição sistematizada das espécies que ocorrem no litoral do estado de Pernambuco. O atendimento aos encalhes é uma importante ferramenta para obtenção desses registros, assim como para gerar informações sobre as populações e respectivas ameaças às quais estão sujeitas. Este trabalho teve como objetivo descrever a ocorrência, diversidade e distribuição de mamíferos aquáticos no estado de Pernambuco, Brasil. O conhecimento adquirido foi oriundo do banco de dados das instituiçõesda Rede de Encalhes de Mamíferos Aquáticos do Nordeste, que atuaram no estado entre 1984 e 2015, contemplando animais vivos e mortos. Foram registrados 157 eventos de encalhes em Pernambuco, correspondendo a 18 espécies de mamíferos aquáticos. Sotalia guianensis foi a espécie mais abundante (28,7%), seguida por Tursiops truncatus (17,2%) e Trichechus manatus (9,6%). Foi identificada a presença de espécies ameaçadas e migratórias, sendo as atividades antrópicas a maior ameaça. Os municípios de Recife e Olinda apresentavam-se como área de descontinuidade de ocorrência do peixe-boi- marinho; entretanto,este estudo identificou animais nativos nessas localidades. O atendimento sistematizado aos encalhes e as campanhas educativas são essenciais para garantir a conservação dessas espécies no estado.

“…Biodiversity conservation strategies at a local scale should be designed, based on an understanding of the occurrence and distribution of species ( Tobler et al 2008 ) and the impacts of human activities on vulnerable species ( Tobler et al 2008 , Cheyne et al 2016 , Rosas-Ribeiro et al 2017 ). Thus, in this study, we present the results of a survey of medium- and large-sized terrestrial mammals from two Atlantic Forest remnants of the Municipality of Conceição dos Ouros in the State of Minas Gerais, southeast Brazil.…”

Conceição dos Ouros is located in the Mantiqueira mountain range (elevation: 831‒1443 m a.s.l.), State of Minas Gerais, southeast Brazil. The largest two Atlantic Forest remnants of the Municipality of Conceição dos Ouros total more than 2,000 ha and the main vegetation type is seasonal semi-deciduous forest, isolated by a matrix of agricultural fields and pasture. The Municipality does not have any protected areas and is located in a highly fragmented region, albeit considered of special importance for the conservation of terrestrial vertebrates in the State of Minas Gerais. Due to a cooperation with the Municipality of Conceição dos Ouros to carry out a survey of the local biodiversity, in this study we present the results of the survey of medium- and large-sized terrestrial mammals from the two forest remnants in the region. Sampling was performed from July 2019 to August 2021 and comprised a camera trap survey, active searching including direct (e.g. carcass sightings) and indirect (e.g. footprints and faeces) evidence of species presence and interviews with residents. Twenty-nine native and two non-native species were documented. Ten species are in some category of threat of extinction at regional, national or global levels. This is the first survey of the terrestrial mammal fauna in the area of Conceição dos Ouros and results could be helpful in designing conservation strategies at the local scale.
