Introduction
The Altas Cumbres Natural Protected Area (NPA) is located in the central-western of
the state of Tamaulipas, covering the municipalities of Victoria and Jaumave,
practically bordering the state capital (POE,
2014). The natural area boasts a diverse topography, ranging from 450 to
2,100 meters above sea level (masl), covering an expanse of 303.2785 km2.
It constitutes a significative segment of the Gran Sierra Plegada subprovince within
the Sierra Madre Oriental, encompassing notable features such as the Cuenca Alta del
Rio San Marcos, Arroyo de San Felipe, Sierra del Filo, and La Melera. This extensive
region extends over the municipalities of Victoria and Jaumave, Tamaulipas (Almaguer-Sierra, 2005).

Between September 2020 and November 2021, a monitoring mammal project was carried out
in the Altas Cumbres NPA, using camera trap techniques. Implementing these
techniques was of great help in documenting several endangered species, among which
two species that had not yet been registered in this Natural Protected Area, the
margay (L. wiedii) and the red brocket deer (M.
temama).
The M. temama is the smallest species of the five cervids that live
in Mexico (Pérez-Solano et al.,
2012). It is distributed from Mexico, through Costa Rica, and Panama to
the north of South America (north of Colombia, and Venezuela); preferably in high
evergreen and medium subevergreen forests, cloud forests, and even temperate
pine-oak forests (Bello-Gutiérrez et
al., 2010; Pérez-Solano et al., 2012).
Although this deer is a species that prefers preserved forests (Branan & Marchinton, 1985), it can also be
found in, transformed sites such as small clearings in the forest (Bello et al., 2004), fallows
and crops (Bodmer, 1989), as long as the
forest does not is totally destroyed (Álvarez del
Toro, 1991).

In Mexico, M. temama is not included in any risk category by current
environmental regulations NOM- 059-SEMARNAT-2010 (SEMARNAT, 2010). However, just a decade ago it was considered a great
hunting trophy by the Safari Club International (SCI), entering the trophy catalog
in the "Grand Slam of the deer" (Villarreal et al., 2008). In addition to this, the
Secretariat of the Environment and Natural Resources (SEMARNAT) published in 2014
the list of priority species for conservation in Mexico, including the M.
temama due to its potential as a game species (Briceño-Méndez & Contreras-Moreno, 2020). The wide
distribution in the country, covers from the south of Tamaulipas to the Yucatan
peninsula, through the slope of the Gulf of Mexico (San Luis Potosi, Queretaro, and
Puebla, to the states of Veracruz, Tabasco, Oaxaca, Chiapas, Campeche, Quintana Roo
and Yucatan) (Gallina, 2005). However,
currently the distribution is restricted to a limited area in the Gulf of Mexico due
to the advance of the agricultural frontier (Villarreal et al.,
2008). The northern range boundary of species was restricted to the south of
Tamaulipas, with its main sightings in the municipalities of Tula, Ocampo and Gómez
Farías, the latter two in the El Cielo Biosphere Reserve (Carrera-Treviño et al., 2018 ).

On the other hand, the L. wiedii is a small felid with solitary
hunting habits that captures its prey both on the ground and in the trees thanks to
its ability to travel through the canopy (Morales-Delgado et al., 2021). Among the prey recorded
throughout its distribution, include amphibians, lizards, rodents, squirrels, and
small primates (de Oliveira-Calleia et
al., 2009). It is commonly associated with conserved
tropical and subtropical evergreen and deciduous forests, ranging from sea level to
1,000 masl, with few records above 2,000 masl; although there is increasing evidence
that it can persist in disturbed sites, with unchanged forest fragments, mixed with
degraded forests and secondary vegetation (Aranda
& Valenzuela-Galván, 2015; Valenzuela-Galván et al., 2013).

In Mexico, the density of the L. wiedii population is unknown, and
it may be continually declining (Morales-Delgado
et al., 2021), which is why it has been included in
the Official Mexican Standard NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010 in the category of endangered
species (SEMARNAT, 2010). This cat is mainly
associated with tropical evergreen forests, semi-deciduous forests, mangroves, and
cloud forests of the Pacific from Sonora to Chiapas and the entire slope of the Gulf
of Mexico (Aranda, 2005; Botello et al., 2006).

This work aimed to report the northernmost extent of the distribution of the red
brocket deer and the margay in Tamaulipas.
Material and Methods
The study was conducted in the state of Tamaulipas, within the Gran Sierra Plegada
subprovince of the Sierra Madre Oriental (Almaguer-Sierra, 2005). This area comprises an ecological association of
low deciduous forest formed by Celtis iguanaea, Sabal
mexicana, Sapindus sp., Commelina
sp., Centrosema sp., and Pteris vittata. The study
area comprises the south of the Natural Protected Area Altas Cumbres, just 3.5 km
north of the Altas Cumbres community (close to the state highway 126 Ciudad Victoria
- Tula, beginning on one side of the point known as the 'Cerro Agujerado'
tunnel.

Despite protection and conservation efforts, there has been an increase in anthropic
activities in the area, mainly mining extraction and new human settlements. It was
unknown if these activities were affecting the fauna, so from September 2, 2020, to
November 30, 2021 (1820 trap-nights), we started a project to monitor medium and
large mammals in the south of the Altas Cumbres NPA.
Four simple georeferenced sampling stations were established, each equipped with one
camera, except for the first station which utilized two devices. The first station
(CTN1MAM) was established in an artificial watering hole for wildlife that is in the
NPA at 992 masl at a point with coordinates 23°37.917' N, 99°11.657' W, just 300 m
east of the area known as the 'Cerro Agujerado' tunnel. From that point the
following stations were established (CTN2MAM at 971 masl at 23°38.002' N, 99°11.574'
W; CTN3MAM at 977 masl at 23°38.072' N, 99°11.480' W; and CTN4MAM at 991 masl at
23°38.157' N, 99°11.366' W) on a linear transect of 1.2 km, each station separated
by 300 m distance from each other. The selection of the transect was made by looking
for corridors and trails that evidenced the passage of fauna based on the criteria
established by Aranda-Sánchez (2012). Camera
traps from the MixMart® and HCO Scoutguard® models were used; these were placed on
tree trunks, at a height between 43 and 48 cm above the ground. The cameras operated
continuously, during the entire sampling period and were checked every three months.
They were configured to record 10-second videos and take a photograph when triggered
by an animal, with a target range of 1.5 to 3.3 m. Cameras were set to medium
sensitivity levels, and the interval between photos was programmed at 5 s; no baits
were used during the sampling.

Results and Discussion
Between the sampling months, the camera traps recorded the presence of several
medium-sized mammals that are common in Altas Cumbres such as Urocyon
cinereoargenteus, Odocoileus virginianus, and
Nasua narica, among others. However, the taxa that drew the
most attention for having their first record in the region were M.
temama and L. wiedii, these were species-level
identifications made using specialized literature (Aranda-Sánchez, 2012; Ceballos,
2014). For M. temama, its reddish-brown hue, slender
body, large ears, and the male's antlers were taken into consideration. Conversely,
for margay, its medium-sized, coloration, neck spots, and proportionally longer tail
were considered.

On May 3, 2021, M. temama was first documented in the Altas Cumbres
NPA, extending the known northern range (Figure
1). The CTN1MAM camera station captured the presence of an adult female
M. temama on three occasions that day. The first record was at
00:18 h, followed by a second image at 00:22 h, and a third at 00:28 h. The
following day (May 4), this station recorded the presence of an adult female of
M. temama, considering that these are consecutive photographs
separated by over 24 hours, they can be identified as independent events, leading to
the conclusion that they represent the same individual (O'Brien et al., 2003). The first record on
this day occurred at 03:27 h, followed by a second at 03:28 h. A particularly
noteworthy observation, from a biological perspective, took place on October 30,
2020. The CTN1MAM station recorded two adult specimens at 05:08 h, with one
displaying antlers, indicative of sexual dimorphism and suggesting a reproductive
pair (Aranda, 2000).

On the night of October 2, 2020, at 00:04 h, the CTN2MAM station made the first
photographic record of this little cat in the Altas Cumbres NPA, expanding its
distribution in Tamaulipas (Figure 2). The
image shows a specimen in posterior view that, judging by its size and presence of
testicles is a male adult, margay could be readily differentiated from other
felines, such as ocelot, due to its proportionately long tail (Eisenberg, 1989). A second sighting took place a month later on
November 6, 2020, at 22:21 h, when the CTN3MAM station recorded an adult margay,
although it was moving in the opposite direction. The third sighting occurred at the
same location, on June 18, 2021, when the camera recorded the presence of an adult
margay at 04:35 h (Figure 3). It was not
possible to confirm whether it is the same individual based on its spot pattern
because the shots capture the animal at angles that do not allow for unequivocal
comparisons (Di Bitetti et al.,
2006).

Previously, the distribution was restricted to a limited area in the Gulf of Mexico
due to the advance of the agricultural frontier (Villarreal et al., 2008). Notably, the Altas Cumbres
NPA lacks any documented records of these species within the taxonomic inventory of
the NPA's management program (GET-IEA-UAT,
2014). The northernmost range boundary of the species was formerly
confined to the southern region of Tamaulipas, with records reported within the El
Cielo Biosphere Reserve (Carrera-Treviño et
al., 2018; Carvajal
et al., 2012; Ochoa-Espinoza et al., 2023) extending the known range
by over 61 km approximately from the prior records.

The northern distribution limit of M. temama it was known to occur
south of Tamaulipas, with its primary sightings in the El Cielo Biosphere Reserve
(Carrera-Treviño et al.,
2018; Ochoa-Espinoza et
al., 2023; Vargas-Contreras
& Hernández-Huerta, 2001) adjacent to records in San Luis Potosi
(Del Río-García et al.,
2020; Rivera-Corona & Sobal-Méndez,
2007), and Veracruz (Salazar-Ortiz
et al., 2022). The records of M.
temama contribute to expanding knowledge of the biology of the species
since a pair (female and a male) was documented in November of 2021, coinciding
right at the second peak and the most pronounced of the rainy season in the region.
While the other records were of solitary specimens in the dry season (Ochoa-Espinoza
et al., 2023).

Similar to the presence of M. temama, the presence of L.
wiedii has been documented in the El Cielo Biosphere Reserve,
considering this locality as the northern limit of distribution of the state, the
registered studies have been documented in preserved vegetation types (Carrera-Treviño et al., 2018;
González-Yáñez, 2022; Martínez-González, 2023; Mendoza-Gutiérrez, 2023; Vargas-Contreras & Hernández-Huerta, 2001). However, the new record
extends the northern distribution of L. wiedii in the state by
approximately 62 km from the previous record (Carvajal et al., 2012) and about 47 km from the
northeasternmost record in Aramberri, Nuevo Leon (Peña-Mondragón & De la Peña-Cuéllar, 2017).

Despite the presence of domestic taxa (cows, horses, pigs, dogs, and cats) that have
a direct impact within the PNA, the presence of M. temama and
L. wiedii was documented, which may be due to the plasticity of
the species to adapt to sites with secondary vegetation and crops located near the
better-preserved vegetation fragments (Bello-Gutiérrez et al., 2010; Vera-García et al., 2023).

Conclusions
These first records of M. temama and L. wiedii in
the Altas Cumbres NPA expand their known distribution further north by at least
61.69 km and 61.80 km, respectively to the previous record in the El Cielo Biosphere
Reserve; and among the most northeastern population located in Aramberri with 47.09
km for L. wiedii. This area is crucial for these species’
conservation in the Sierra Madre Oriental, serving as a connection between
populations in southern Tamaulipas and Nuevo Leon.
