Synopsis

The Illustrated Checklist of the Mammals of the World is the most complete, illustrated reference on mammalian diversity ever published. Spanning two volumes, this checklist includes all 6,554 currently recognized species, organized across 27 orders and 167 families, with coverage of both recent discoveries and extinct species. Produced by the team behind the Handbook of the Mammals of the World, it brings together updated taxonomy, conservation status, and distribution data in a visually engaging format. Each species entry includes its scientific and common names (in English, French, German, and Spanish), IUCN Red List category, and notes on taxonomy and subspecies where applicable. Every species is accompanied by a high-quality color illustration and an updated distribution map. With over 7,150 illustrations and 6,431 range maps, this checklist is an indispensable tool for mammalogists, ecologists, conservationists, educators, and anyone interested in the global diversity of mammals. It also serves as a perfect companion to the HMW series or as a stand-alone guide for quick reference. The Illustrated Checklist of the Mammals of the World reflects the latest research in mammal taxonomy and is the most up-to-date global compendium available today. A vital resource for understanding and protecting the richness of mammalian life on Earth.
