Evaluamos la eficiencia del fototrampeo para monitorear aves y mamíferos en pastizales del sistema de Tandilia mediante la ocupación naïve, tasa de captura y tiempo hasta la primera detección de cada especie. Comparamos la riqueza observada con aquella reportada en bases de datos en línea. Realizamos curvas de acumulación de especies para estimar el esfuerzo de muestreo necesario para detectar la riqueza de especies. Detectamos 50 especies de aves y 15 de mamíferos. Las principales especies de aves (calandria común, chingolo, hornero, verdón e inambú campestre)
representaron 48% de todas las detecciones de este grupo, con una ocupación naïve de 21-25% y tiempos promedios
hasta la primera detección de entre 6 y 9 días. Las principales especies de mamíferos (zorro pampeano, peludo, liebre europea, zorrino y gato montés) contituyeron 81% de las detecciones de este grupo, con una ocupación naïve de 32-
77% y tiempos promedios hasta la primera detección de entre 4 y 7 días. Un muestreo de 2 semanas fue el balance
óptimo entre esfuerzo y calidad de los resultados. Se detectó toda la riqueza reportada de mamíferos y la mitad de las aves asociadas a pastizales. Brindamos información valiosa para futuros monitoreos con fototrampeo en pastizales neotropicales.
