ZSI e-publication Introduction A checklist of species is an invaluable tool for both researchers and the interested public (Wilson and Reeder, 2005). The first complete systematic review of all mammals of the world was produced by Trouessart, 1897-1905 followed this number of taxonomical research has been made on mammal species of the world by Simpson and Gaylord, 1945, Walker, 1964, Nowak, 1991, Sokolov, 1973-79, Corbett and Hill, 1980, McKenna and Bell, 1997. In India the classification of mammals was dealt by many authors such as the fauna of British India- Mammalia (Pocock, 1939, 1941), checklist of Indian and Palaeartic mammals (Ellerman and Morrison-Scott, 1951), the book of Indian animals (Prater, 1971), Indo-malayan region mammals (Corbet and Hill, 1992), checklist of mammals of India (Alfred et. al.,2002), field guide to Indian mammals (Menon, 2003),checklist of Scandentia and Pholidata (Srinivasalu and Srinivasalu, 2004), Chiroptera (Talmale and Pradhan, 2009) and Rodentia (Pradhan and Talmale, 2011). As per Wilson and Reeder (2005), a total of 5416 species of mammal belonging to 154 families and 29 orders have been reported from the globe. Out of these, a total of 423 species of India, which is about 7.81% of the global mammalian species, representing 48 families and 14 orders have been listed in the present checklist (Table 1).

A Checklist of Mammals of India with their distribution and conservation status. 4 Zoological Survey of India, Prani Vigyan Bhawan, M Block, New Alipore, Kolkata-700 053. ZSI e-publication In India, chiropterans represents maximum number of species (115) followed by rodents (101) and these two taxa jointly constituting 51.06% of the total Indian mammal species. Indian carnivores are also diverse having 59 species followed by artiodactyls (37), cetaceans (33), soricomorphs (29), primates (23), lagomorphs (11), perissodactyls (5), scandents (3), erinaceomorphs (3), pholidots (2), proboscidean (1) and sirenian (1). The nomenclature and taxonomic arrangement of the species and sub species of the Indian mammals was compiled primarily based on Pocock, 1939, 1941; Prater, 1971; Alfred et al., 2002, 2006 and Wilson and Reeder, 2005 etc. However, the nomenclature of the wild species namely Bos gaurus, Bos mutus and Bubalus arnee was followed as per International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, 2003 and Gentry et al., 1996, 2004. The distribution of species and subspecies of the Indian mammals in India and other countries has been presented in this checklist. The current conservation status of the Indian mammals as per IUCN Red list of Threatened Species, 2012, Indian Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 and CITES, 2012 are given in this list up to the sub species level. Of the 423 mammal species, 44 species are endemic and 4 species are extinct from India (i.e. Acinonyx jubatus, Cheetah; Bos javanicus, Banteng; Dicerorhinus sumatrensis, Sumatran Rhinoceros and Rhinoceros sondaicus, Javan Rhinoceros), which are also incorporated in this list. The present list does not include any domesticated mammals of India. Sharma, G., Kamalakannan, M. and Venkataraman, K. 2013.
