About this book

Language: Portuguese

Scientific knowledge about the mammal fauna of the Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil began to form in the second half of the nineteenth century from collections and observations of the German naturalist Herman von Ihering. Since then this body of knowledge has been largely increased by investigations carried out by researchers from educational and research institutions in different parts of the state, evidenced in the more than 180 species formally recognized, and many others in currently in the process of being described. This publication project on Rio Grande do Sul's native fauna presents the first work entitled Mamíferos do Rio Grande do Sul, the aim of which is to update knowledge about the diversity of mammals in the state. This book provides an overview of taxonomic diversity, i.e. of species – knowledge essential to the conservation of native wildlife.

Summary in Portuguese:
O conhecimento científico sobre a fauna de mamíferos do Rio Grande do Sul começou a se formar na segunda metade do século XIX a partir de coletas e observações do naturalista alemão Herman von Ihering. Desde então este conhecimento tem sido amplamente incrementado através de investigações realizadas por pesquisadores de instituições de ensino e pesquisa em diferentes partes do Estado, evidenciado nas mais de 180 espécies formalmente reconhecidas, e tantas outras em via de descrição. Assim, iniciando a execução de um projeto de publicações sobre a fauna nativa do RS apresentamos a primeira obra intitulada Mamíferos do Rio Grande do Sul, cuja proposta é atualizar o conhecimento sobre a diversidade de mamíferos no Estado. Este livro proporciona uma visão geral da diversidade taxonômica, ou seja, de espécies existentes - conhecimento essencial para a conservação da fauna nativa.
