Southernmost records of Dromiciops gliroides: extending its distribution beyond the Valdivian rainforest

ABSTRACT The geographic range of a species is often limited by sampling approaches, underestimating the actual distribution. This is likely the case of Dromiciops gliroides (Microbiotheria), an endemic marsupial from southern South America. We used camera-traps to record D. gliroides for the first t...
