Animals in New Caledonia

One mammal species is recorded in New Caledonia in this dataset, and it is in a threatened Red List category. New Caledonia sits in Oceania, where 81 species are recorded in total. Every species below is listed because the range description of its IUCN Red List assessment names New Caledonia.

It belongs to the family Vespertilionidae. By Red List category: 1 Endangered.

These counts come from the text of each assessment rather than from an official country checklist, so a species whose assessment names a region without naming New Caledonia is missing here, and a wide-ranging animal is counted in every country it crosses. It has a full written profile.
