To compile information on Central America mammals, experts from the region were consulted. These specialists provided lists of species reported in each country, as well as their common names. Below is a list of experts who collaborated with this information:

Belize: Jan Merman, Belize Biodiversity Information
Costa Rica: Bernal Rodríguez, National Museum of Costa Rica
El Salvador: Néstor Herrera, Zoological Foundation of El Salvador FUNZEL
Guatemala: Sergio Pérez, University of San Carlos
Honduras:
Nicaragua: Arnulfo Medina, Cocibolca Foundation
Panamá: Rafael Samudio, Mastozoological Society of Panama.

Most of the natural history information that appears on Central American mammals is based on information presented on the INBio website. The information about Costa Rican mammals was compiled by Luis H. Elizondo and Javier Rodríguez.

“Mammals of Central America” is an initiative of the National Institute of Biodiversity (INBio) of Costa Rica. The technical aspects were coordinated by Alvaro Herrera and the informatics aspects by María A. Mora. Leila Calderon was responsible for the graphic design of the website and Jose Gonzalez contributed his professional services in the compilation and input of data on the natural history of mammal species that are not present in Costa Rica.
