Using various sources, including the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF), published literature, recent (2015-2017) collections, as well as bat detector and camera trap surveys with opportunistic sightings and live capture in the upper Okavango catchment in central Angola, we present an updated mammal checklist of 275 species from 15 different orders for Angola (including the Cabinda region). Recent surveys (captures and bat detectors) of small mammals from the upper Okavango catchment yielded 46 species (33 species of bats, ten species of rodents and three species of shrews). One bat (, rusty pipistrelle); two rodents (, Setzer's mouse and , Woosnam's broad-faced mouse) and one shrew (, lesser dwarf shrew) were captured for the first time, in Angola. While our species lists of bats conformed to predicted totals, terrestrial small mammals were under sampled, with only 13 species recorded by our trapping survey compared to a total of 42 shrew and rodent species expected based on GBIF records for the central Angolan highlands. Seven terrestrial small mammal species (one shrew and six rodents) are endemic to the central and western Angolan highlands but none of these were captured in our survey. The bat detector surveys added three further bat species to the country list: , , and . Camera trap surveys and opportunistic sightings in the upper Okavango catchment in 2016 yielded a total of 35 species of medium-large mammals, from 17 families, although all of these had been reported previously in Angola. GBIF proved to be an excellent source of biodiversity data for Angolan mammals, most importantly for documenting dramatic historical range changes of larger mammals such as the sable (), Kirk's sable () and the giant sable ().
我们利用包括全球生物多样性信息机构（GBIF）、已发表文献、近期（2015 - 2017年）的采集样本以及在安哥拉中部奥卡万戈上游集水区使用蝙蝠探测器和相机陷阱进行的调查（包括机会性目击和活体捕获），列出了一份更新的安哥拉哺乳动物清单，涵盖来自15个不同目、共275个物种（包括卡宾达地区）。近期对奥卡万戈上游集水区小型哺乳动物的调查（捕获及使用蝙蝠探测器）发现了46个物种（33种蝙蝠、10种啮齿动物和3种鼩鼱）。首次在安哥拉捕获了1种蝙蝠（锈红伏翼）、2种啮齿动物（塞策鼠和伍斯南宽脸鼠）以及1种鼩鼱（小矮鼩）。虽然我们列出的蝙蝠物种数量符合预期总数，但陆生小型哺乳动物的样本不足，我们的诱捕调查仅记录了13个物种，而根据GBIF记录，安哥拉中部高地预计共有42种鼩鼱和啮齿动物。7种陆生小型哺乳动物物种（1种鼩鼱和6种啮齿动物）是安哥拉中部和西部高地特有的，但在我们的调查中均未捕获到。蝙蝠探测器调查又为该国的蝙蝠物种清单增添了3个物种：、和。2016年在奥卡万戈上游集水区进行的相机陷阱调查和机会性目击共发现了来自17个科的35种中大型哺乳动物，不过所有这些物种此前在安哥拉均有记录。事实证明，GBIF是获取安哥拉哺乳动物生物多样性数据的绝佳来源，最重要的是它记录了诸如紫貂、柯克氏紫貂和巨紫貂等大型哺乳动物显著的历史分布范围变化。
