Abstract

A Brazilian Porcupine, Coendou prehensilis (Linnaeus, 1758), was encountered and photographed at night on a recently cleared forest path in Presidente Hayes Department, Paraguay. Although C. prehensilis is widespread and has been reported from a variety of ecoregions and habitats, this record in western Paraguay is the first from the South American Humid Chaco ecoregion.
