This is a list of the mammal species recorded in Laos. There are 178 mammal species in Laos, of which four are critically endangered, eight are endangered, twenty-three are vulnerable, and two are near threatened. One species has been described since the last IUCN assessment.[1]
The following tags are used to highlight each species' conservation status as assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature:
EX
Extinct
No reasonable doubt that the last individual has died.
EW
Extinct in the wild
Known only to survive in captivity or as a naturalized populations well outside its previous range.
CR
Critically endangered
The species is in imminent risk of extinction in the wild.
EN
Endangered
The species is facing an extremely high risk of extinction in the wild.
VU
Vulnerable
The species is facing a high risk of extinction in the wild.
NT
Near threatened
The species does not meet any of the criteria that would categorise it as risking extinction but it is likely to do so in the future.
LC
Least concern
There are no current identifiable risks to the species.
DD
Data deficient
There is inadequate information to make an assessment of the risks to this species.
Order: Proboscidea (elephants)
Asian elephant
The elephants comprise three living species and are the largest living land animals.
The treeshrews are small mammals native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia. Although called treeshrews, they are not true shrews and are not all arboreal.
Laotian rock ratPauline's limestone ratPolynesian rat
Rodents make up the largest order of mammals, with over 40% of mammalian species. They have two incisors in the upper and lower jaw which grow continually and must be kept short by gnawing. Most rodents are small though the capybara can weigh up to 45kg (99lb).
The lagomorphs comprise two families, Leporidae (hares and rabbits), and Ochotonidae (pikas). Though they can resemble rodents, and were classified as a superfamily in that order until the early 20th century, they have since been considered a separate order. They differ from rodents in a number of physical characteristics, such as having four incisors in the upper jaw rather than two.
Family: Leporidae (rabbits, hares)
Genus: Lepus
Burmese hare, L. peguensisLC
Genus: Nesolagus
Annamite striped rabbit, N. timminsiLC
Order: Erinaceomorpha (hedgehogs and gymnures)
The order Erinaceomorpha contains a single family, Erinaceidae, which comprise the hedgehogs and gymnures. The hedgehogs are easily recognised by their spines while gymnures look more like large rats.
Family: Erinaceidae (hedgehogs)
Subfamily: Galericinae
Genus: Hylomys
Short-tailed gymnure, H. suillusLC
Order: Soricomorpha (shrews, moles, and solenodons)
The "shrew-forms" are insectivorous mammals. The shrews and solenodons closely resemble mice while the moles are stout-bodied burrowers.
Family: Soricidae (shrews)
Subfamily: Crocidurinae
Genus: Crocidura
Southeast Asian shrew, C. fuliginosaLC
Horsefield's shrew, C. horsfieldiiDD
Subfamily: Soricinae
Tribe: Nectogalini
Genus: Chimarrogale
Himalayan water shrew, C. himalayicaLC
Family: Talpidae (moles)
Subfamily: Talpinae
Tribe: Talpini
Genus: Euroscaptor
Kloss's mole, E. klossiLC
Himalayan mole, E. micruraLC
Order: Chiroptera (bats)
The bats' most distinguishing feature is that their forelimbs are developed as wings, making them the only mammals capable of flight. Bat species account for about 20% of all mammals.
Family: Pteropodidae (flying foxes, Old World fruit bats)
Schreibers' long-fingered bat, Miniopterus schreibersii LC
Family: Molossidae
Genus: Chaerephon
Wrinkle-lipped free-tailed bat, Chaerephon plicata
Family: Emballonuridae
Genus: Taphozous
Black-bearded tomb bat, Taphozous melanopogon
Family: Megadermatidae
Genus: Megaderma
Lesser false vampire bat, Megaderma spasma
Family: Rhinolophidae
Subfamily: Rhinolophinae
Genus: Rhinolophus
Acuminate horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus acuminatus
Bornean horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus borneensis
Croslet horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus coelophyllus
Woolly horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus luctus
Big-eared horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus macrotis
Malayan horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus malayanus
Marshall's horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus marshalli
Bourret's horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus paradoxolophus VU
Pearson's horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus pearsoni
Least horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus pusillus
Shamel's horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus shameli
Lesser brown horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus stheno
Little Nepalese horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus subbadius DD
Thomas's horseshoe bat, Rhinolophus thomasi
Subfamily: Hipposiderinae
Genus: Aselliscus
Stoliczka's trident bat, Aselliscus stoliczkanus
Genus: Coelops
East Asian tailless leaf-nosed bat, Coelops frithii
Malayan tailless leaf-nosed bat, Coelops robinsoni
Genus: Hipposideros
Great roundleaf bat, Hipposideros armiger
Ashy roundleaf bat, Hipposideros cineraceus
Fulvus roundleaf bat, Hipposideros fulvus
Intermediate roundleaf bat, Hipposideros larvatus
Shield-faced roundleaf bat, Hipposideros lylei
Order: Pholidota (pangolins)
Sunda pangolin
The order Pholidota comprises the eight species of pangolin. Pangolins are anteaters and have the powerful claws, elongated snout and long tongue seen in the other unrelated anteater species.
The order Cetacea includes whales, dolphins and porpoises. They are the mammals most fully adapted to aquatic life with a spindle-shaped nearly hairless body, protected by a thick layer of blubber, and forelimbs and tail modified to provide propulsion underwater.
The even-toed ungulates are ungulates whose weight is borne about equally by the third and fourth toes, rather than mostly or entirely by the third as in perissodactyls. There are about 220 artiodactyl species, including many that are of great economic importance to humans.
This list is derived from the IUCN Red List which lists species of mammals and includes those mammals that have recently been classified as extinct (since 1500 AD). The taxonomy and naming of the individual species is based on those used in existing Wikipedia articles as of 21 May 2007 and supplemented by the common names and taxonomy from the IUCN, Smithsonian Institution, or University of Michigan where no Wikipedia article was available.
