| Abstract: | Species (35) of small mammals are recorded from the Adamaoua highlands of Cameroun. Six represent first records from Cameroun: Suncus infinitesimus, Crocidura boydi, C. roosevelti, Eptesicus guineensis, Aethomys hindei and Uranomys ruddi. C. attila and A. stannarius are raised to specific rank, and the characters of A. stannarius and A. hindei are described. A considerable number of mammals of the Cameroun mountains are East African species and endemics.
