Status and distribution of Paraguayan Sciuridae (Rodentia) and Leporidae (Lagomorpha)
Smith P.
P. 37-48
Two species of Sciuridae (Hadrosciurus ignitus and H. spadiceus) and two species of Leporidae (one native Sylvilagus cf. brasiliensis and one exotic Lepus europaeus) are known to occur in Paraguay. However, their distribution is poorly understood, and no compilation of the knowledge of these families in Paraguay exists. This paper reviews the available specimens and literature, provides distribution maps and corrects existing errors of misunderstanding with a view towards promoting their future study in the country.
