Abstract

The paper concerned biological diversity and population of mammals of the Taimyr Peninsula. The information on the distribution of mammals in different natural zones and subzones of the northern part of Central Siberia was presented. Resource assessment of economically important and rare species requiring protection was given in annotated reports. The last sections were devoted to the ecological assessment of small mammal communities living in different natural landscape zones of the peninsula.
