This study aimed to characterize the community of non-volant small mammals in terms of richness, abundance, and seasonality in the restinga in the Parque Estadual Acaraí, state of Santa Catarina. The overall success of catch was 2.78% (5.93% in the winter and 0.64% in the summer). The most abundant and widely distributed species was Akodon montensis (n = 71), with 56.35% of the individuals, followed by Nectomys squamipes (n = 24), with 24.75%, and the marsupial Marmosa paraguayana (n = 6), with 4.76%. The park had reduced species richness compared with other nearby areas of restinga.
