Resumen:
ABSTRACT. Annotated catalog of vertebrate type specimens in the Paleontological Collection ofFacultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales, Universidad Nacional de La Pampa, Argentina. Since 1987, theFacultad de Ciencias Exactas y Naturales of Universidad Nacional de La Pampa, Argentina, holds an importantpaleontological collection whose acronym is GHUNLPam. Currently, it contains about 35,000 specimens ofinvertebrates, vertebrates, plants, ichnofossils and palynomorphs, mainly from different fossiliferous levels of LaPampa Province. Here we present a catalog of the vertebrate type materials, largely corresponding to late Miocene mammals from this province. It includes the holotypes of 15 species published until the end of 2019; four of them are the type species for their corresponding genera. For each taxon, we provide updated taxonomyas well as synonyms, original or modified diagnosis (translated into Spanish if needed), type locality, geographic and stratigraphic provenance, and derivation of the name. Finally, in several cases we provide some taxonomic comments and list the specimens assigned in the original publication. Key words: Holotypes, Vertebrata, Paleontology, Repository, Argentina
