Spatial autocorrelation of mammalian richness and abundance along the cerrado-pantanal corridor, central Brazil. Neotropical Biology and Conservation, São Leopoldo, v. 3, n. 3, p. 103-111, Dec. 2008.e- 2236-3777http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/11602In this paper, we evaluated spatial patterns in mammalian fauna obtained using 75,000 camera-trap hours in 33 fragments at the Cerrado-Pantanal border, along an east-west axis and flanked by two relatively large preserved areas. This region has been proposed as an ecological corridor, connecting these two large ecosystems. The richness of species obtained (total = 33) was explained by the area and the number of habitats in each fragment. The abundance of small-bodied species tends to have significant spatial patterns, whereas variation in the abundance of large-bodied species is randomly distributed in the geographical space. No faunal transition (changes in species compositions) between the two ecosystems was identified.engAcesso AbertoCamera trapCerradoEcological corridorPantanalMammalsArmadilha fotográficaCorredor ecológicoMamíferosArtigo10.4013/nbc.20083.01
