Updated Data on Wild Mammals of Algeria: Distribution and Conservation Biology
View through CrossRef
Algeria boasts diverse ecological, cultural, topographical and taxonomic diversity. The rich national natural and agricultural biodiversity comprises about 16,000 known species. There have been no updated scientific work regarding of the wild mammals of Algeria since the writings of Kowalski and Kowalska in 1991. Moreover many significant taxonomic and nomenclatorial always changes have appeared. For instance the Artiodactyla and Cetaceans were once grouped in the same order of the Cetartiodactyla, while the order Insectivora was divided on two separate orders Soricomorpha and Erinaceomorpha. The mammals of Algeria are represented actually by 111 species belonging to 11 orders and 37 families.
