The checklist is the comprehensive reference necessary for the local government and concerned agencies to enact local policies on biodiversity conservation. This article provides information on the enumeration list of fauna species in Sitio Pajo, Barangay Ibo, Toledo City, Cebu. The ocular listing and documentation were conducted during the day from March to April 2020. Three transect stations with a distance of 100 meters were established where the fauna was randomly selected. A total of 100 species were listed composed of vertebrates with 4 classes, 18 orders, 33 families, and 42 species while invertebrates with 7 classes, 15 orders, 4 families, and 58 species. The vertebrates were composed of Class Aves with 24 species, Class Reptilia with 9 species, Class Mammalia with 8 species, and Class Amphibia with 2 species. While invertebrates were composed of Class Insecta with 49 species, 33 families, and 8 orders; Class Diplopoda composed of 4 species, 4 families, and 3 orders; Class Arachnida, Chilopoda, Gastropoda, Oligochaeta, and Malacostrata with only 1 species, 1 family, and 1 order each. This short endeavor was limited to no collection of samples, no abiotic factors recorded, and no consideration of habitat factors. This listing of fauna was new to science and a new record in the city of Toledo.
