Mammals in MZNA-VERT: project Biodiversity of mammals in Pamplona

This collection is part of a project carried on Pamplona’s urban area (Navarra, Spain) about the mammals’ community. The study resulted in a book “Mamíferos de Pamplona” (Escala et al, 2012). The collection stored in the Museum of Zoology of the University of Navarra (MZNA) contains the specimens and records of most of the information about small mammals community which can be found in this book.
The collection is mainly formed by specimens of small mammals found in barn owl pellets but there are also records from captured-released specimens sampled in different habitats of Pamplona. The material from pellets consists on skulls, mandibles and few skeletons and it is stored in the facilities of the MZNA. Most of the trapped animals were released in field.
The data set is available in GBIF.
