Summary "Vertebrates from the Barrier Island of Tamaulipas, México" by Robert K. Selander et al. is a scientific publication written in the early 1960s. This detailed study focuses on the collection and observation of land vertebrates found on the northern part of the barrier island of Tamaulipas, which has been relatively under-explored in terms of zoological research. The publication presents findings of various species, including reptiles, mammals, and birds, thereby offering valuable insights into the ecological makeup of this coastal region. The opening of the work establishes the geographical context of the study, describing the barrier island's ecological setting, which features a mix of sand dunes and the saline waters of the Laguna Madre. The authors recount their fieldwork undertaken in July 1961, including the establishment of two camps and the challenges faced in traversing the landscape. They lay out the motivations behind the research, emphasizing the lack of prior scientific knowledge regarding the area’s vertebrate fauna. Overall, the beginning sets the stage for a thorough examination of the island's unique species and habitats, aiming to fill a notable gap in zoological literature.
