 | | Pampas cats have been traditionally considered (see, e.g., Wozencraft, 1993) as an unique, polymorphic species, Oncifelis colocolo, although it has been recently split in three species (García-Perea, 1994): Lynchailurus pajeros, L. colocolo and L. braccatus (different authors have included Pampas cats in different genera). |
 | | The amount and nature of morphological variation within this species group have been described in detail in the same article, although some questions remain unsolved related to the connection between populations located in the eastern and western slopes of the Andes, around the altiplano. |
