Abstract

The Trinidad  Regional Virus Laboratory  (TRVL) established in 1952 had as its main objective the study of arboviruses (viruses transmitted by insects, ticks and mites) from various parts of Trinidad. The Chaguaramas area however, at that time was a United States Naval Station and not available for studies. The data obtained from the studies at Chaguaramas were never published and there has been no other mammal study since the TRVL work. I therefore thought it useful to place the mammal data on record as baseline information for other workers who might want to work in the area.
