Abstract
We give here the first examples of $C^1$ structurally stable maps on manifolds of dimension greater than two that are neither diffeomorphisms nor expanding. It is shown that an Axiom A endomorphism all of whose basic pieces are expanding or attracting is $C^1$ stable. A necessary condition for the existence of such examples is also given.
