Mammals, Scientific collection, SurveyAbstract
Zoological collections are conserved specimens’ holders of fauna and flora, that can be translated as biological information and are great providers of knowledge on the taxonomic, temporal and spatial coverage of biodiversity. This study aims to present a survey of mammal records from the Mammalogy Collection at the PUC Minas Museum of Natural Sciences (MCN-M). The data were divided into categories of interest for conservation, namely: Restricted distribution species, Rare species in this collection, Type material, Endangered species and Voucher specimens for study. MCN-M has a collection of about 4,000 specimens from 23 Brazilian states. It contains 247 species of Brazilian mammals and three exotic species. Of the Brazilian species, eight are of restricted distribution, 26 are rare in this collection, 26 are endangered taxa and two are type-species. The data from the survey carried out reinforce the importance and relevant scientific value of the Mammalogy Collection, whether due to the presence and/or number of specimens of rare species, species of restricted distribution, endangered species, in addition to housing type specimens. This study reinforces the notorious importance of conducting studies, research and dissemination of the collection in scientific databases of and publications.
