Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mammals/Missing mammal genera

The Start of the Project !
Hello hello, the goal of this project is to use the information given in to bring the page List of mammal genera up-to-date (amongst others).

The intro sentence of this said page currently is : "There are currently 1,258 genera, 156 families, 27 orders, and around 5,937 recognized living species of mammal."

However, it's based on two taxonomic book of mammals that are quite old : Mammals Species of the World (2005, 18 years old) and i believe the version they refer to for the Handbook of the Mammals of the World refers to 1993 (30 years old). At least, in the ITIS System, two of the main references a 1993 and 2005 book.

So yeah, this is the start of something. And I (we) had to have an intro speech. Gimly24 (talk) 17:28, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
