Animals in Solomon Islands
3 mammal species are recorded in Solomon Islands in this dataset, 2 of them in a threatened Red List category. Solomon Islands 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 Solomon Islands.
They belong to 2 families, the best represented being Hipposideridae (2), Molossidae (1). By Red List category: 1 Endangered, 1 Vulnerable, 1 Least Concern.
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 Solomon Islands is missing here, and a wide-ranging animal is counted in every country it crosses. All 3 of them have a full written profile.
