The three colocolo cat populations (Leopardus colocola) in Chile are associated with the Altiplano, the Mediterranean forest and the Patagonian steppes. They have traditionally been considered isolated and distant from each other, and have even been potentially viewed as different species by some authors. We used available information and the georeferenced data obtained from our own observations (through direct observations, images from trail cameras, indirect signs of the species, museum records, description of the areas in scientific literature and georeferencing applications). We created an updated distribution map for the entire country and compared it to historical distribution maps. We have contributed to over 207 unpublished records, defining for the first time the distribution of L. c. wolffsohni from the Region of Arica and Parinacota to the town of “El Chollay”. We also contributed to increase the distribution of L. c. colocola by more than 300 km to the north (near to Paposo) and define its southern limit in the sector of Laguna del Laja. As for the subspecies L. c. pajeros, this would be associated with the Patagonian steppe ecosystem. The subspecies L. c. wolffsohni and L.c. colocola have a wider distribution than reported in the scientific literature and are probably even connected, since there are no natural boundaries separating them and their records are 46 km apart. The updated maps will support future taxonomic analyzes and help detect the principal threats that endanger the species (such as mining activity and land-use change).
