The Tres Marias cottontailorTres Marias rabbit (Sylvilagus graysoni) is a species of mammal in the family Leporidae.[1]

Distribution and habitat[edit]

It is endemic to the Tres Marias Islands, part of the Mexican state of Nayarit.[2] The rabbit is abundantly found in both the Madre and Magdalena islands but only has some occurrences in the Cleofa island.[3] Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical dry forests.
