At least three bands named 'Fauna' exist: 1. A reclusive American dark ambient/black metal band. They released two demos titled Rain and The Hunt in 2007, each composed of a single song of over an hour in length. Rain was released on Aurora Borealis in 2008; a release of The Hunt followed in late 2009 with live drums replacing the drum machine of the original. Three additional suites have been conceived but have yet to be recorded officially, although a live recording of the third suite, Avifauna, has surfaced on the Internet under the title "Feathainne".

Band members also appear in Echtra, Threnos, Fearthainne, and Alethes.
2. Argentinian digital cumbia duo heralding from the ZZK Records label and Club Zizek in Buenos Aires. Fauna has released two full albums, as well as contributed to many compilations and collaborations with artists like Ghislain Poirier, El Remolon, Frikstailers, and others. Pioneers of the global cumbia scene since 2003, they've made a name for themselves in their home of Mendoza, Argentina and around the world. Fauna is Color Kit (Christian del Negro) and Catar_sys (Federico Rodr?guez, who left this Earth in Nov 2010), both on voice and beat making. They released their first album La Manita de Fauna (ZZK Records, 2008), pure jungle cumbia with lyrics that transcended the message, mixing playfulness and consciousness, a portrait of life on the foot of the Andes.
Fauna's second album Manshines was ready for editing when Catar_sys passed on, after an unforgettable South American tour through Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela and Brasil together with Villa Diamante.
3. A Russian trip-hop outfit. The release of this Fauna album have been anticipated for the last four years for it is the one most complete and reflecting Fauna mood in the best way. Momentary cut of the surrounding world and feeling of eternity are equally inherent to each track of this record. Hymn to the emptiness, to its so varied phenomena is the essence and deep meaning of Have U Ever Talked To Angels?
