Popis:	We made a recount of the localities with Mammuthus columbi remains in Puebla State. Our results show 32 previously reported localities and six new ones, they are distributed in the central-western area of the State between the Sierra Norte of Puebla and the Mixteca Poblana, and an altitude from 1500 to 2500 meters above sea level. This represents the 14% of the total of localities in Mexico and places Puebla as the second state with the most Mammuthus fossil remains, behind the State of Mexico. On the other hand, the distribution of the localities corresponds to the Transvolcanic Belt-Sierra Madre del Sur biogeographic corridor. On the other hand, the extensive distribution of M. columbi remains demonstrate the fossiliferous potential of the state, and gives a starting point for future explorations in order to enhance knowledge on the past of Mexico.
