Abstract

The zoogeography of the Tropical/Subtropical region of Southern Brazil is reviewed through a detailed analysis of numerous studies by different authors. Transition zones are established in the global patterns of zoological provinces (Dana, 1853). The Province "Paulista" is proposed between the States of Espírito Santo and Rio Grande do Sul, limited north and south by the 23ºC isotherm.
