A taxonomic list of the mammals recorded from the department of Córdoba is presented with data from reference collections of national and foreign museums. We include research results from research groups at the Unicórdoba Biodiversity research center (University of Cordoba) and the Functional Ecology Laboratory (UNESIS- Pontificia Universidad Javeriana). Databases of 13 museums in North America (MaNIS) were reviewed. Besides the records found in the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History (NMNH), Royal Ontario Museum (ROM), Texas Cooperative Wildlife Collection (TCWC) and USA Field Museum of Natural History (FMHN). Mammals of Córdoba department are represented by 40 families, 90 genera and 117 species. The greatest species richness of mammals was found in the subregions of upper Sinú and San Jorge. The greatest number of species are of the order Chiroptera (48.9 %), followed by Carnivora (12 %), Rodentia (10.3 %) and Cetacea (9.4 %).
