Abstract

Salinomys delicatus Braun & Mares, 1995 is a sigmodontine rodent endemic to perisaline environments in west-central Argentina. It is currently considered to be a Vulnerable species due to its patchy distribution and the loss of optimal habitats caused by intensive anthropogenic activities. In this work, we document the first record for this species in the Dry Chaco ecoregion of northwestern Córdoba province (Argentina), enlarging the geographic distribution of this species by approximately 115 km to the east of previously known occurrences. Our new record highlights the need to strengthen conservation policies in the Dry Chaco of Córdoba province.

美味盐扁鼠的首次记录，Salinomys delicatus Braun&Mares，1995年（啮齿动物，蟋蟀科），位于阿根廷科尔多瓦西北部的xeric环境中，并对其保护状况进行了评论

Braun&Mares，1995是一种分布于阿根廷中西部沿海环境的单齿啮齿类动物。它目前被认为是一个脆弱的物种，因为它的分布不均匀，并且由于密集的人类活动而失去了最佳栖息地。在这项工作中，我们记录了该物种在阿根廷科尔多瓦省西北部的Dry Chaco生态区的首次记录，将该物种的地理分布扩大了之前已知事件以东约115公里。我们的新记录强调了加强科尔多瓦省干查科保护政策的必要性。

期刊介绍： Check List is a peer-reviewed online journal, devoted to publishing biodiversity data related to species’ geographic distribution. Thus, our primary mission if to fill the so-called Wallacean shortfall (Lomolino 2004) and to improve our knowledge of how life is distributed on the planet in order to better preserve it. These data are essential for studies on biogeography and provide a baseline for the conservation of biodiversity. The first step to undertaking effective conservation action is to maintain records of the distribution of species. Therefore, the journal was created from the need publish basic data on species distribution of any taxon in a timely and open manner, which are often neglected by traditional journals. Check List is a bimonthly peer-reviewed online journal, and will consider for publication: -distribution summaries of a supraspecific taxon in a broad geographic area (e.g., hemisphere, country, biome), as a review of the distribution of a taxon in the given area. -annotated list of species, of a given taxon in a strict geographic area, with comments and illustrations on the identifications, based on original data. -notes on the geographic distribution, reporting new records of one or more species while providing a complete overview on the known distribution of the treated taxa. -book reviews on books related to biodiversity, biogeography, niche modeling, or any associated field that uses species distribution as its primary data source. -opinions on relevant subjects for the journal’s mission and scope
