perumammals: Taxonomic Backbone and Name Validation Tools for Mammals of Peru

Provides a curated taxonomic backbone of mammal species recorded in Peru, based on the checklist published by Pacheco and collaborators (2021) <doi:10.15381/rpb.v28i4.21019>. The package includes standardized species data, occurrence records by ecological regions, endemic status, and tools for validating and matching scientific names through exact and approximate string procedures. It is designed as a lightweight and reliable reference for ecological, environmental, biogeographical, and conservation workflows that require verified species information for Peruvian mammals.
