The Polled Crioulo Pereira Camargo is a dual-purpose dairy/beef polled variety of the Crioulo Lageano that is found in the central part of the southern coastal state of Santa Catarina, in the region known as Planalto Serrano.

The Polled Crioulo Pereira Camargo is said to have a gentle character and is described as a Criollo. However, zebu influence is also suggested due to a large dewlap often occurring in both sexes, plus a high crest and substantial sheath in the bulls.
