Surveys are a key tool for the assessment of conservation strategies. We evaluated the relative abundance and vertical strata used by mammals in an Atlantic Forest patch in Igarassu (PE), Northeastern Brazil. We walked a total of 145.25 km on transects from December 2018 to June 2019, recording 105 sightings of eight species. Callithrix jacchus presented the highest relative abundance and Cuniculus paca the lowest. There was variation in the forest strata used by mammals. The records of rare and large-bodied mammals indicate the importance of this area for the maintenance of the mammalian fauna of the Pernambuco Endemism Center.
