We currently have images of the following 641 species taken in Paraguay. After the species name, within each individual gallery the global conservation status is given in red, and eco-region endemism in blue (where applicable). Click on family links for their characteristics.
An asterisk (*) before the species name means that a video is also available. We currently have videos of 407 species recorded in Paraguay.
