Diversity of mammals and its preferences for the habitats types in the upper Itaya river basin, Peruvian Amazon

This report contains information about the diversity of mammals and preferences for habitat types in the upper Itaya river basin. For this purpose, censuses by transect were conducted and supplemented out censuses observations and with hunters interviews information. As a result of the study 48 species were recorded. Greater diversity was recorded in forest of heavily dissected low hill (Bcbfd). On the other hand, 20 species were shared among the three habitat types, while the highest similarity occurred between the forest of heavily dissected low hill (Bcbfd) and the forest of moderately dissected low hill (Bcbmd). Finally, the presence of indicator species as the primary community as Tapirus terrestris, Priodontes maximus, Lagothrix poeppigii and Tayassu pecari, indicate that the conservation status of wildlife in general is intermediate to high level.

Este reporte contiene información sobre diversidad de mamíferos y sus preferencias por los tipos de hábitats en la cuenca del río Alto Itaya. Para este propósito fueron conducidos censos por transecto y complementada con observaciones fuera de censos y con información proveniente de las entrevistas a cazadores. Como resultado del estudio fueron registradas 48 especies. Mayor diversidad fue registrada en bosque de colina baja fuertemente disectado (Bcbfd). Por otro lado, 20 especies resultaron compartidas entre los tres tipos de hábitats, en tanto que la mayor similitud ocurrió entre el bosque de colina baja fuertemente disectado (Bcbfd) y el bosque de colina baja moderadamente disectado (Bcbmd). Finalmente, la presencia de especies indicadoras de la comunidad primaria como Tapirus terrestris, Priodontes maximus, Lagothrix poeppigii y Tayassu pecari demuestran que el estado de conservación de la fauna silvestre en general es de nivel intermedio a alto.
