Abstract

Vernon Bailey's Mammals of New Mexico is not a satisfactory source of data for many studies which directly or indirectly involve distributions of mammals within New Mexico. The present work is an attempt to provide such a source--to bring together in usable form all published records of occurrence within the state for each species of mammal that is known to occur in New Mexico and also to make available such unpublished records as are present in the University of New Mexico Collection of Vertebrates. Some additional information on names, life-zone preferences, and subspecies to be found within the state has been included as has a section briefly describing the size, topography, climate, and vegetation of New Mexico.
