ABSTRACT This paper emphasizes the importance of taphonomy to paleontological research, as a complementary approach to morphological and systematics works. Metodological procedures for data retrieval from pleistocenic fossil assemblage from Rio Grande do Norte State are proposed. That approach will allow more comprehensive analysis of paleoecology related problems. MARIA DE FÁTIMA CAVALCANTE FERREIRA DOS SANTOS KLEBERSON DE OLIVEIRA PORPINO & 1 2
