Abstract

ABSTRACT Despite its small geographical size and its tumultuous recent political history, Rwanda is home to a diverse mammal fauna. Having reviewed 53 published books and papers, including the six volumes of Mammals of Africa, I have developed a simple checklist of all mammals recorded within Parc National des Volcans, Akagera National Park, Nyungwe National Park, and along the eastern shore of Lake Kivu. With a few exceptions, almost all of Rwanda's mammal species are represented in these four areas. A total of 205 species were identified within these four areas, though the presence of some species may be in doubt, some may become locally extirpated, and a few additional species may be found with more ground surveys.
卢旺达哺乳动物清单
尽管卢旺达幅员狭小,近期政局动荡,但它却是多种哺乳动物的家园。在查阅了53本已出版的书籍和论文,包括六卷本的《非洲哺乳动物》之后,我编制了一份简单的清单,列出了在国家火山公园、阿卡盖拉国家公园、纽恩威国家公园和基伍湖东岸记录的所有哺乳动物。除了少数例外,卢旺达几乎所有的哺乳动物物种都分布在这四个地区。在这四个地区共发现205个物种,但有些物种的存在可能存在疑问,有些物种可能在当地灭绝,而通过更多的地面调查可能会发现一些额外的物种。
