Maranhão does not have a faunal assemblage typical of a single biome

I saw my "Revision" not as a simple taxonomy work .... but I took it to the ultimate consequences ... it's my life's work !

And many fruits came ... and keep coming!

‎"Maranhão does not have a faunal assemblage typical of a single biome, but is rather a mix of ecosystems, which would increase its biodiversity, and thus make the State very important for biological conservation, despite its high levels of habitat degradation."

Tadeu Gomes de Oliveira; Rafael Gomes Gerude e José de Sousa e Silva Júnior

Parte desse ecossistema veio com o DESVIO do RIO AMAZONAS....e parte através do Brasil central, como é o caso de Monodelphis americana,  que veio das florestas do leste da Bahia.
