摘　　要：INTRODUCTION Pangolin is the common name for animals in the Family Pholidota,Mammalia,which consists of eight extant species.All pangolin species have been listed as critically endangered(CR),endangered(EN),or vulnerable(VU)species in the International Union for Conservation of Nature(IUCN)Red List of Threatened Species(Challender et al.2020).In June 2020,the Chinese government upgraded the Chinese pangolin(Manis pentadactyla Linnaeus,1758)from a national second-class protected animal to a national first-class protected animal.In February 2021,the Sunda pangolin(Manis javanica Desmarest,1822)and the Indian pangolin(Manis crassicaudata Geoffroy,1803)were added to the list of national first-class protected animals.However,the number of species of pangolins naturally distributed in China varies in the literature:Some sources have recorded only one species,namely the Chinese pangolin(Nowak&Paradiso 1983;Sheng 1999),while most have recorded two species,namely the Chinese pangolin and Indian pangolin(Allen 1938;Zhang 1997;Wang 2003;Wu et al.2005a;Hu&Hu 2017).
