Identification. The Central American Red Brocket is a small, reddish-brown deer. There are no markings present on the face ( Wainwright and Arias 2007). May be confused with the White-tailed Deer ( Odocoileus virginianus Zimmermann, 1780 ). Mazama temama is
considerably smaller and lacks the facial markings of O. virginianus .
