| First Record of Pallas's Cat in Northwest Iran | |

Pallas's cat _Otocolobus manul_ is a wide-ranging small cat that occurs throughout northern and central Asia (Allen 1938, Ognev 1935, Heptner & Sludskii 1972, Nowell & Jackson 1996). Although populations are relatively robust in some areas like Mongolia, little information exists on populations elsewhere, particularly in the southern portion of the species' range. Consequently, the distribution limits of the species are largely speculative and often inferred from the distribution of potentially suitable habitats. |
