Ampliación de la distribución del Armadillo Cola de Trapo Transandino Cabassous centralis (Cingulata: Chlamyphoridae), para el Alto Magdalena en Colombia

Colombia is a country with a great richness of armadillos, with six species belonging to three genera, covering most of the national territory. One of them, Cabassous centralis, is the only trans-andean species. An individual of Cabassous centralis was found and photographed during a snake-searching in January of 2019. The casual encounter occurs at the eastern Tolima department, in the slopes of Eastern Cordillera. This record, together with a specimen preserved in the mammal collection of the Alexander von Humboldt Biological Resources Research Institute, confirm the presence of the species in the department and are the southernmost records in its distribution within the Magdalena Valley.
