RESUMEN En proyectos hidroeléctricos se han realizado pocas investigaciones para determinar la composición taxonómica de dípteros de la familia Psychodidae, subfamilia Phlebotominae. En este trabajo se realizó un inventario taxonómico de flebótomos en el área de influencia de la central hidroeléctrica de Ituango, departamento de Antioquia con el fin de actualizar su distribución y resaltar su importancia médica como vectores del protozoo del género Leishmania. Para esto, se realizaron monitoreos entomológicos con trampas CDC y trampas Shannon, en diez municipios de la subregión occidente (Santa Fe de Antioquia, Peque, Olaya, Liborina y Sabanalarga) y de la subregión norte (municipios de Ituango, Briceño, Valdivia, Toledo y San Andrés de Cuerquia). Para la identificación taxonómica se utilizaron las claves de Young y Duncan y Galati. En total se recolectaron 7993 flebótomos, distribuidos en 39 especies según Galati, destacándose seis especies consideradas vectores de especies de Leishmania, que causan la leishmaniasis cutánea. Estas especies fueron Lutzomyia (Trl.) gomezi, Lu. (Hel.) hartmanni, Psychodopygus panamensis, Pintomyia (Pif.) columbiana, Nyssomyia trapidoi y Ny. yuilli yuilli. Los datos indican que la zona de muestreo es endémica para la leishmaniasis debido a la presencia de vectores transmisores de este parásito. El inventario sobre la distribución de flebótomos servirá de base para estudios posteriores que permitan la implementación de estrategias de vigilancia y control.

ABSTRACT In hydroelectric projects, few investigations have been carried out to determine the taxonomic composition of diptera of the family Psychodidae, subfamily Phlebotominae. In this work, a taxonomic inventory of phlebotomine sandflies was conducted in the area of influence of the Ituango hydroelectric power plant, in the department of Antioquia, Colombia. We highlight their medical importance as vectors of the protozoan of the genus Leishmania and update their distribution. Entomological monitoring was carried out in ten municipalities from the western subregion (Santa Fe de Antioquia, Peque, Olaya, Liborina and Sabanalarga) and the northern subregion (the municipalities of Ituango, Briceño, Valdivia, Toledo and San Andrés de Cuerquia). CDC traps and Shannon traps were used for monitoring. For taxonomic identification, the keys of Young and Duncan and Galati were used. A total of 7993 phlebotomine sandflies were collected, distributed in 39 species according to Galati, highlighting six species considered vectors of Leishmania spp. that causes cutaneous leishmaniasis, which are: Lutzomyia (Trl.) gomezi, Lu. (Hel.) hartmanni, Psychodopygus panamensis, Pintomyia (Pif.) columbiana, Nyssomyia trapidoi and Ny. yuilli yuilli. We conclude that the sampling area is endemic for leishmaniasis due to the presence of vectors transmitting this parasite. The inventory on the distribution of phlebotomine sandflies will serve as a basis for further studies that allow the implementation of surveillance and control strategies.

Abstract With the objective of improving the knowledge about Ephemeroptera in the North region of Brazil, the group’s first survey was carried out for the metropolitan region of Santarém, Pará, Brazil. The specimens analyzed were collected from 2019 to 2020 in 27 aquatic environments distributed in the region. The nymphs were captured in the streams with aquatic entomological nets, in addition to manual collection on the substrates. Adults were collected using light traps and flight intercept traps. To complement the inventory, a bibliographic survey of species previously recorded in the area was carried out. For this, the Taxonomic Catalog of Fauna of Brazil, the website Ephemeroptera in South America and scientific articles were consulted. As a result, eight families, 23 genera and 31 species/morphospecies were recorded for the region, with 13 new records for Pará and 19 for the metropolis of Santarém. This study demonstrates the relevance of surveys for the knowledge of biodiversity and for understanding the geographic distribution of taxa.

Resumen. Con base en observaciones in situ, las especies Ptereleotris calliura (familia Gobiidae) y Liopropoma rubre (familia Serranidae) se agregan al inventario taxonómico de peces del Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano, Veracruz, México. Mientras que P. calliura se encontró en el sustrato arenoso de una laguna arrecifal, L. rubre se encontró en un talud arrecifal. Con el reporte de estas 2 especies, la lista de peces de arrecife en el Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano se amplía a 479 especies. Tomando en cuenta estos resultados, predecimos que esfuerzos de estudio adicionales (más allá de los transectos visuales) revelarán más especies de peces no registradas previamente en el Sistema Arrecifal Veracruzano.

Abstract. Based on several in situ observations, the species Ptereleotris calliura (family Gobiidae) and Liopropoma rubre (family Serranidae) are added to the taxonomic fish inventory of the Veracruz Reef System, Veracruz, Mexico. While P. calliura was found on sandy substratum in a coral reef lagoon, L. rubre was detected on a reef slope. With the addition of these 2 species, the checklist of reef fishes in the Veracruz Reef System is expanded to 479 species. Given these findings, we predict that additional survey efforts (beyond visual transects) will reveal more previously unrecorded species of cryptic fishes in the Veracruz reef system.

Abstract Corticioid and poroid fungi are traditional morphological groups composed of ligninolytic species. Due to their efficiency in wood decomposition process, many species have great ecological importance, especially in nutrient cycling, as well as for their biotechnological properties. Nevertheless, knowledge about these fungi is scarce in many phytogeographic regions of Brazil, as is the case of the Cerrado, since mycodiversity studies in this biome are mainly focused on areas of the São Paulo state. Here we present the taxonomic inventory of corticioid and poroid fungi from the Reserva Ecológica da Universidade Estadual de Goiás (REC-UEG), a Cerrado remnant in Anápolis, Goiás, Brazil. The area is covered by three typical Cerrado landscapes (cerrado stricto sensu, mesophilic forest, and gallery forest), widely explored for scientific and educational purposes by the academic and regional community which seeks to learn about and preserve its biodiversity. Exsiccates deposited in the fungarium of the Universidade Estadual de Goiás (HUEG-Fungi) were analyzed. They are the result of collections made over 20 years, in approximately 103 ha of the reserve. Samples were characterized macro and microscopically and identified based on specialized literature. 51 species were recognized, which are distributed in 33 genera, 15 families, and five orders. Species were most frequent in forested areas and among them, six are new occurrence records for the Cerrado, nine for the Midwest region, and nine for the Goiás state. These results contribute to increase the knowledge of these fungi in the Cerrado, as well as geographic distribution, and show the relevance of preserving the reserve for the regional Funga representativity. process importance cycling properties Nevertheless Brazil state RECUEG, RECUEG REC UEG , (REC-UEG) Anápolis cerrado sensu forest forest) biodiversity HUEGFungi HUEG Fungi (HUEG-Fungi analyzed 2 years 10 literature 5 recognized 3 genera 1 families orders them region distribution representativity (REC-UEG

Resumo Fungos corticioides e poroides são assim agrupados com base em aspectos morfológicos e compostos por espécies essencialmente lignícolas. Por sua eficiência no processo de decomposição da madeira, muitas espécies desses grupos apresentam grande importância ecológica, especialmente na ciclagem de nutrientes, além de propriedades para aplicações biotecnológicas. Entretanto, o conhecimento sobre esses fungos é escasso em algumas regiões fitogeográficas do Brasil, como é o caso do Cerrado, uma vez que os estudos da micodiversidade no bioma estão focados principalmente em áreas do estado de São Paulo. Portanto, aqui apresentamos o inventário taxonômico de fungos corticioides e poroides da Reserva Ecológica da Universidade Estadual de Goiás (REC-UEG), um remanescente de Cerrado no município de Anápolis, Goiás, Brasil. A área é formada por três fitofisionomias típicas do Cerrado (cerrado stricto sensu, mata mesófila e mata de galeria) e é amplamente explorada para fins científicos e educacionais pela comunidade acadêmica regional, que buscam conhecer e preservar sua biodiversidade. Foram analisadas exsicatas depositadas no fungário da Universidade Estadual de Goiás (HUEG-Fungos), cujo acervo é fruto de coletas realizadas ao longo de 20 anos nos cerca de 103 hectares da reserva. As amostras foram caracterizadas macro e microscopicamente e identificadas com base na literatura especializada. Foram reconhecidas 51 espécies, distribuídas em 33 gêneros, 15 famílias e cinco ordens. As espécies são mais frequentes em áreas de mata na reserva e entre elas seis configuram novos registros de ocorrência para o Cerrado, nove para região Centro-Oeste e nove para o estado de Goiás. Desse modo, esses resultados contribuem para ampliar o conhecimento desses fungos no Cerrado, assim como da distribuição geográfica das espécies, além de mostrar a importância da preservação da reserva para a representatividade da Funga regional. lignícolas madeira ecológica nutrientes biotecnológicas Entretanto Brasil Paulo Portanto RECUEG, RECUEG REC UEG , (REC-UEG) Anápolis cerrado sensu galeria regional biodiversidade HUEGFungos, HUEGFungos HUEG (HUEG-Fungos) 2 10 especializada 5 3 gêneros 1 ordens CentroOeste Centro Oeste modo (REC-UEG (HUEG-Fungos

Resumen México es un centro de diversificación de Lamiaceae, lo que le confiere oportunidades amplias de investigación en campos como la fitoquímica y modelos ecológico-evolutivos, entre otros. No obstante, su conocimiento taxonómico y biogeográfico manifiesta limitantes profundas, por ello resulta fundamental fortalecerlo y realizar exploración botánica en localidades prioritarias. El presente trabajo contribuye mediante el inventario y el análisis de la distribución de Lamiaceae en Durango por unidades políticas, naturales y una cuadrícula con celdas de área definida. Como resultado, se examinaron 2,888 especímenes de herbario correspondientes a 18 géneros y 103 especies. La riqueza general y cantidad de endemismos, así como por celdas, y aquellas de mayor prioridad por complementariedad, se concentraron sobre la Sierra Madre Occidental, hacia las vertientes oeste y sur del estado, en bosques templados y entre 1,900-2,500 m de elevación. Por último, se encontró que el sistema actual de áreas naturales protegidas y prioritarias para la conservación en Durango engloban un porcentaje bajo de la riqueza y endemismo de Lamiaceae, en consecuencia, se recomienda analizar otros taxones vegetales representativos de las diferentes afinidades ecológicas de la flora duranguense para evaluar la pertinencia de estas estrategias de conservación y poder proponer medidas complementarias.

Abstract Mexico is one of the diversification centers of Lamiaceae, granting it a wide range of research opportunities on phytochemistry and ecological-evolutionary models, among others. Nonetheless, shortcomings on the taxonomic and biogeographic knowledge of the family compromise such opportunities, due to this, it is essential to address these gaps and to carry on botanical exploration in priority areas. The present study contributes to this by means of the inventory and distribution analysis of Lamiaceae in Durango by different units, political, natural and cells of a defined area. As a result, 2,888 herbarium specimens representing 18 genera and 103 species were examined. The general richness and number of endemic species, as well as those by cell, and the cells with higher priority by their complementarity, were concentrated along the Sierra Madre Occidental, primarily on the western and southern portions, in temperate forests and between 1,900-2,500 m in elevation. Finally, it was found that the current system of protected natural and priority areas for conservation in Durango contains a low percentage of the Lamiaceae richness and endemism; therefore, it is recommended to implement analyses with plant taxa characteristic of the different ecological affinities of Durango’s Flora to evaluate the performance of these conservation strategies and to propose complementary methods.

Resumo Realizamos um levantamento taxonômico das Bignoniaceae ocorrentes na Fazenda Aba, localizada no município de Passagem, estado da Paraíba (Nordeste do Brasil). Este inventário foi baseado em materiais coletados em excursões mensais de coleta realizadas entre 2014 e 2017. Para todas as espécies coletadas, apresentamos descrições, informações sobre distribuição, comentários taxonômicos, chave de identificação, ilustrações e fotografias. Registramos a ocorrência de nove espécies distribuídas em seis gêneros. O gênero mais representativo é Tanaecium com três espécies, seguido de Anemopaegma, com duas espécies. Os outros quatro gêneros, Dolichandra, Fridericia, Handroanthus e Tabebuia estão representados por uma única espécie cada.

Abstract We conducted a taxonomic survey of the Bignoniaceae from the “Fazenda Aba,” located at the municipality of Passagem, within the state of Paraiba (Northeastern Brazil). This inventory was based on material collected during monthly field expeditions between 2014 and 2017. For all collected species, we provide descriptions, information on the distribution, taxonomic comments, an identification key, illustrations, and photos. We recorded nine species distributed in six genera. The most representative genus is Tanaecium with three species, followed by Anemopaegma, with two species. The other four genera, Dolichandra, Fridericia, Handroanthus, and Tabebuia are represented by a single species each.

Abstract: Sierra de Guadalupe is the only mountain range in the northern part of the Valley of Mexico metropolitan area. The accelerated urban expansion over the past decades has turned Sierra de Guadalupe into an isolated natural area immersed within the urban matrix. This study aimed to gather a documented inventory of the mammals of Sierra de Guadalupe as such information is useful to improve the management, restoration, and conservation of this important natural area of the basin of Mexico. Mammal collection records were extensively surveyed in the literature, collection databases, web pages, and scientific collections; field surveys were also conducted. A taxonomic list of the mammal species and their conservation status in the four Protected Natural Areas of Sierra de Guadalupe was compiled. A species-accumulation curve was constructed using the Chao 1 model and a map showing the distribution of collection records was produced. This work reveals that the mammals of Sierra de Guadalupe include 29 species, 23 genera, 15 families, and six orders. Six species are endemic to Mexico; two of them, Choeronycteris mexicana and Cratogeomys fumosus, are listed as threatened and one, Leptonycteris yerbabuenae, as under special protection. Collection records were gathered from 62 different localities. The largest number of species records and collections were made between 2009 and 2020. The species-accumulation curve projects a total of 36 mammal species. This is the first documented inventory ever compiled of the wild mammals of Sierra de Guadalupe. The species richness observed in this area is remarkable, considering its extension and environmental stressors; in addition, it harbors species endemic to Mexico, some of which are threatened. This is the first time that the species Sorex saussurei, Choeronycteris mexicana, Leptonycteris yerbabuenae, Cratogeomys merriami, Neotomodon alstoni, and Peromyscus melanophrys have been recorded in this area. The species-accumulation curve indicates that our inventory provides a good representation of the local species assemblage. This information can support the formulation of action plans for the conservation and restoration of the biological diversity of these important Protected Natural Areas and the last significant natural area remaining in the northern part of the Valley of Mexico Metropolitan Area.

Resumen: La Sierra de Guadalupe es la única cadena montañosa en la parte norte de la Zona Metropolitana del Valle de México. Debido a la expansión acelerada de las áreas urbanas, en las últimas 40 décadas, la Sierra de Guadalupe se ha convertido en un espacio natural aislado e inmerso en esta matriz urbana. El objetivo de este trabajo fue realizar un inventario documentado de los mamíferos de la Sierra de Guadalupe y que la información generada contribuya al manejo, recuperación y conservación de este importante pulmón ubicado en la Cuenca de México. Se hizo la búsqueda de registros en la literatura, bases de datos, portales electrónicos, colecciones biológicas y se realizaron colectas de campo. Se elaboró un listado taxonómico de las cuatro áreas naturales protegidas de la Sierra de Guadalupe, incluyendo su estado de conservación. Se obtuvo la curva de acumulación de especies utilizando el modelo de Chao 1 y se generó un mapa de distribución de localidades. La composición taxonómica para la Sierra de Guadalupe fue de 29 especies, seis órdenes, 15 familias y 23 géneros. Seis especies son endémicas de México, dos en categoría de Amenazadas Choeronycteris mexicana y Cratogeomys fumosus y una en Protección especial Leptonycteris yerbabuenae. Las colectas corresponden a 62 localidades. La mayor riqueza y abundancia se observó entre los años 2009 a 2020. La curva de acumulación de especies predijo un total de 36 especies.

La información que se aporta es valiosa para establecer acciones de conservación y recuperación de la diversidad biológica de estas importantes ANP y último reducto de área natural ubicado al norte del Área Metropolitana de la Ciudad de México.

Abstract In order to identify the edaphic macrofauna in five grassland agroecosystems from Granma province, samplings were carried out twice a year, between July, 2014 and March, 2017. The edaphic macrofauna was collected according to the standard methodology proposed by the Tropical Soil Biology and Fertility (TSBF) and by the complementary methodology of pitfall traps. The identification was performed with taxonomical references and keys, and with the cooperation of competent entomologists and taxonomists. The identified edaphic macrofauna, with both methods, in five agroecosystems, was grouped in three phyla, seven classes, 16 orders, 71 families, 121 genera, 63 species and 177 morphospecies. Insecta class was the best represented according to number of orders (11), while Araneae was the most represented order, with 17 families. Formicidae family had the best richness of genera and species, identified with 33 taxonomical units. Out of the identified orders, 17 were collected from monoliths and 14 from traps. Meanwhile, at taxonomical level, 46 were identified in monoliths and 63 in traps. It is concluded that the high presence of ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) determined a low taxonomical diversity of the edaphic macrofauna in all the studied agroecosystems. In addition, it is recognized the need of use of the complementary method of pitfall traps to obtain a more complete inventory of the edaphic macrofauna.

Resumen Para identificar la macrofauna edáfica en cinco agroecosistemas de pastizales de la provincia Granma, se realizaron muestreos dos veces al año, desde julio de 2014 hasta marzo de 2017. La macrofauna edáfica se colectó según la metodología estándar propuesta por el Tropical Soil Biology and Fertility (TSBF) y por la metodología complementaria de las trampas de caída. La identificación se realizó con el uso de claves y referencias taxonómicas y con la colaboración de entomólogos y taxónomos competentes. Para la macrofauna edáfica, se aplicaron ambos métodos en los cinco agroecosistemas. Se agrupó en tres phyla, siete clases, 16 órdenes, 71 familias, 121 géneros y 63 especies y 177 morfoespecies. La clase Insecta fue la mejor representada, en lo que respecta al número de órdenes (11); entre los órdenes, lo fue Araneae con 17 familias. La familia Formicidae se destacó por su riqueza de géneros y especies, con 33 unidades taxonómicas. De los órdenes identificados, 17 se colectaron en los monolitos y 14 en las trampas. Mientras, a nivel taxonómico de familia, se identificaron 46 en los monolitos y 63 en las trampas. Se concluye que la elevada presencia de hormigas (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) determinó una baja diversidad taxonómica de la macrofauna edáfica en todos los agroecosistemas estudiados. Además, se reconoce la necesidad del uso del método complementario de las trampas de caída para obtener un inventario más completo de la macrofauna edáfica.

Resumen Orchidaceae es una de las familias botánicas más estudiadas desde el punto de vista taxonómico y económico en el mundo. En Uruguay es poco conocida y los datos descriptivos que existen se encuentran fragmentados y dispersos. En este trabajo se presenta un inventario de la familia así como su distribución en ambientes, eco-regiones y departamentos del país basados en los registros de herbarios, publicaciones existentes y expediciones de campo realizadas durante el 2018-2019. Se presenta una lista con 59 especies en 18 géneros. Se encontraron cuatro especies endémicas de Uruguay, mientras que 22 spp. son endémicas del Cono Sur. La Cuenca Sedimentaria Gondwánica fue la eco-región en presentar mayor diversidad de especies (51%) y los departamentos con mayor riqueza fueron Cerro Largo (25 spp.) y Maldonado (25 spp.). Mientras que el Bosques Serranos y Bosque Ribereño fueron los más ricos en especies de orquídeas. Los géneros más representativos fueron Habenaria (12 spp.), Cyclopogon (8 spp.) y Brachystele (6 spp.) y las especies que presentaron distribución amplia fueron Habenaria gourlieana, H. parviflora, y Cyclopogon elatus, las cuales se encontraron en todas las eco-regiones y en 15 de los 19 departamentos del país.

Abstract From an economic and taxonomic point of view, Orchidaceae is one of the most studied botanical families. In Uruguay it is poorly represented and known, and descriptive data are fragmented and scattered. In the present work the information on the species of this family is updated based on herbaria records, previous publications and field trips made in the country during 2018-2019. A list of Orchidaceae from Uruguay is presented with 59 species belonging to18 genera. Four species were found endemic to the country, while 22 species are endemic to the Southern Cone region. The Gondwanic Sedimentary Basin was the ecoregion with the highest species diversity (51%) and the richest departments were Cerro Largo (25 spp.) and Maldonado (25 spp.). The Highland Forest and Riparian Forest environments presented highest diversity. The most representative genera were Habenaria (12 spp.), Cyclopogon (8 spp.), and Brachystele (6 spp.). The species with the widest distribution were Habenaria gourlieana, H. parviflora, and Cyclopogon elatus, which were found in all ecoregions and in 15 out of 19 departments of the country.

Abstract We present an analysis of the bird diversity of Misantla, Veracruz. We made an inventory from data collected through point counts, transects, non-systematic observations, identifications through vocalizations, and specimen collections using mist nets. Additionally, we made a literature search of birds of this region deposited in biological collections of the world in order to compare its changes over time. We estimate species richness, relative abundance, seasonality, endemism, conservation status, and exotic species. We recorded 161 bird species, most of them permanente residents, including a new record for the region. We generated dissimilarity dendrograms to understand how species composition varies among vegetation types and we found a differentiation between the north and south zones of the study area. We found a relation of dependent between the number of habitats occupied by a species and the species relative abundance. We compared our data versus data from the 19th century, and found small changes in the proportion of species in vegetation types, migration status or protection category. However, is impossible to evaluate if have happened modifications in abundances.

Resumen Presentamos un análisis de la diversidad de aves del municipio de Misantla, Veracruz. El inventario se realizó por medio de puntos de conteo, transectos, observaciones libres, reconocimiento de cantos o llamados y recolecta de especímenes mediante redes de niebla. Además, realizamos una búsqueda de literatura de aves de la región depositados en colecciones biológicas del mundo, para comparar los cambios a través del tiempo. Estimamos la riqueza, abundancia relativa, estacionalidad, endemismo, grado de conservación y especies exóticas. Registramos 161 especies de aves. La mayoría son residentes permanentes, incluyendo un nuevo registro para la región. Generamos dendrogramas de disimilitud para conocer cómo la composición de especies varía entre los tipos de vegetación y encontramos una diferenciación entre la zona norte y sur del municipio. Encontramos una relación de dependencia entre el número de hábitats que ocupa una especie y su abundancia relativa, además observamos una mayor dominancia en los tipos de vegetación perturbados. Realizamos una comparación con los datos disponibles del siglo XIX y encontramos pocos cambios en la proporción de especies según su tipo de vegetación, migratorias o en una categoría de protección. Sin embargo, es imposible evaluar si han ocurrido modificaciones en su abundancia.
