The application of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding as a biomonitoring tool has greatly increased, but studies have focused on temperate aquatic macro‐organisms. We apply eDNA metabarcoding to detecting the mammalian community in two high‐biodiversity regions of Brazil: the Amazon and Atlantic Forests. We identified Critically Endangered and Endangered mammalian species and found overlap with species identified via camera trapping. We highlight the potential for using eDNA monitoring for mammals in biodiverse regions and identify challenges: we need a better understanding of the ecology of eDNA within variable environments and more appropriate reference sequences for species identification in these anthropogenically impacted biomes.

评估环境 DNA 元条形码监测新热带哺乳动物的潜力:亚马逊和大西洋森林的案例研究,巴西

环境 DNA (eDNA) 元条形码作为生物监测工具的应用已大大增加,但研究主要集中在温带水生大型生物上。我们应用 eDNA 元条形码来检测巴西两个生物多样性高的地区的哺乳动物群落:亚马逊和大西洋森林。我们确定了极度濒危和濒危哺乳动物物种,并发现与通过相机诱捕确定的物种重叠。我们强调了在生物多样性地区对哺乳动物使用 eDNA 监测的潜力,并确定了挑战:我们需要更好地了解可变环境中 eDNA 的生态学,以及在这些受人为影响的生物群落中进行物种鉴定的更合适的参考序列。
