In June2014, we confirmed the presence of margay (Leopardus wiedii) in fraction I of the Area de Protection de Flora y Fauna Corredor Biologico Chichinautzin, Morelos, Mexico. Our record is based in 4 video clips taken by an automatic camera located at 2,750 m of altitude, with cloud forest. This record is the second confirmed evidence of the presence of margay populations in the state of Morelos, and it is the first record of the species for the Corredor Biologico Chichinautzin, expanding the distribution range of margay into Central Mexico by nearly 60 km to the north-northwest of the site where it was first recorded for Morelos, at the Sierra de Huautla Biosphere Reserve.
