Abstract

Studies on fauna in Chilean peatlands are scarce and mainly focus on Tierra del Fuego. Using camera traps in two Sphagnum peatlands in Dalcahue (Chiloé Island), 15 species of birds and one mammal were  recorded. This work aims to provide a background for conservation and management challenges in these ecosystems.
