1.1 General Introduction Principal -- 2. Zoloogical Groups -- 2.1 Arachnids -- 2.2 Insects: Migrants, endemics, and old to new pests -- 2.3 Freshwater decapod crustaceans: the challenges of documenting and preserving a very diverse fauna -- 2.4 Mexican molluscs: In the process of a 'silent extinction' -- 2.5 Amphibians and reptiles -- 2.6 Anthropocene impacts on the Mexican freshwater fish fauna -- 2.7 Mexican avifaunas of the Anthropocene -- 2.8 Marine birds -- 2.9 Terrestrial mammals -- 2.10 Marine mammals -- 2.11Mexican bats: conservation challenges in the Anthropocene -- 3. Ecosytems -- 3.1 The impact of the growth of urban environments on Mexican fauna -- 3.2 Anchialine fauna of the Yucatan Peninsula -- 3.3 Semi-terrestrial and aquatic invertebrates and fish in mangroves in México -- 3.4 Defaunation of Mexican tropical forests3.5 Mezcal boom and extinction debts in Mexican arid ecosystems -- 3.6 Deep sea life -- 3.7 The importance of agroecosystems for the Mexican fauna -- 3.8 The salamanders of the Mexican cloud forest -- 3.9 Human effects on caves in Mexico -- 3.10 Fauna of lakes and rivers -- 3.11 Coral reef faunal assemblages in the Mexican Caribbean: assessing the cryptic biodiversity -- 4 Processes -- 4.1 Contemporary climate change impacts on Mexican fauna -- 4.2 Invasive alien species of invertebrates and fishes introduced to Mexican freshwater systems -- 4.3 Are marine fisheries sustainable? -- 4.4 Pest dynamics in Mexican forests -- 4.5 Pollination by wild and managed animal vectors -- 4.6 Social participation strategies for the conservation of Mexican fauna -- 4.7 Citizen science for deep ocean biodiversity: a crowdsourcing tool in support of conservation -- 4.8 Legal actions for the conservation of fauna.

This contributed volume presents an analysis of the current conservation status of major faunal groups in Mexico. The chapters describe a prognosis of future challenges, and also explore the expanding threats inherent in the Anthropocene within the context of the unique physical, biological and cultural aspects of the nation. Covering 27 chapters, and written by Mexican and international authors, this book analyzes a wide range of vertebrate and invertebrate animal taxa, their ecosystems and the critical processes related to their present conservation status. This volume is an important reference material for researchers, conservationists and students interested in the biological and ecological processes shaping the Mexican fauna.
