Marmosa paraguayana
I found this specimen on a tree, near a waterfall, in an environmental reserve of Atlantic Forest.
Marmosa is a genus of small didelfimorfos Didelphidae family of marsupials known as "Marmosas" or "Mouse Opossums". This is a clade in continuous remodeling, moving frequently different between this and other species next genre.

I agree "luca1".... And, do you know? This animals (this specie, in particular) are a little "rare". Are difficult to be spotted and occur in few regions.
I think I need to visit Brazil..
