The wetland of the Pantanal has been a constant object of research due to its complex ecosystem, with great quantity and diversity of landscapes. Knowing the macrohabitat found in the areas that integrate the Pantanal provides a considerable information framework, which enables to assist in the decision-making processes for their maintenance and conservation, such as the Pantanal Federal Law Project 7507/2011. The purpose of this research was to identify and classify the functional units, subclasses and macrohabitat that compose the Pantanal in the regions of Mato Grosso and South of Mato Grosso. As for the functional units, were pointed out the Permanent Aquatic Areas; Periodically Aquatic Areas, with predominance of the aquatic phase; Periodically Terrestrial Areas; Swamp Areas Permanently Flooded; Permanently Terrestrial Areas and Anthropogenic Areas. Sixteen subclasses and seventy four macrohabitat were also identified, expanding the information published by Nunes de Cunha and Junk (2014). The macrohabitat, which represent the Pantanal biome were registered in the table, which has  as its main objective to provide scientific support, aiming at guaranteeing the effective preservation of wet areas in the Pantanal, devoid of specific regulations, as well as the development of social, political, and public policies that promote the protection and sustainable management of wetlands.
