  • Wood Duck Aix Sponsa Breeding in the Nazas River, Durango, Mexico
    Wood Duck Aix sponsa breeding in the Nazas River, Durango, Mexico Francisco Valdés Perezgasga Cotinga 11 (1999): 13–14 Se describen los primeros registros del Pato del Bosque Aix sponsa reproduciéndose en México. Las observaciones fueron realizadas en la cuenca baja del Río Nazas en el Estado de Durango, México. Howell & Webb2 map the range of Mexican birds, enabling observers, at a glance, to recognise occurrences of species outside their known range. Wood Duck Aix sponsa is considered a winter visitor (U to R) to the north and west of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, with some occurrences in southern Veracruz, Yucatan and Baja California2, whilst Peterson & Chalif5 also describe it as a winter visitor with records in Sinaloa, Valle de México, San Luis Potosí and Tamaulipas. Edwards1 states that the species is a very rare winter visitor to the northern half of Mexico. del Hoyo et al.3 maintain that Aix sponsa is a winter visitor to central Mexico but map the species as a visitor to the northern coasts of Mexico. These references form a coherent body of literature describing Wood Duck as a non-breeding winter visitor to Mexico. During April–November 1998, I recorded a number of Wood Ducks on the lower Nazas River, including both sexes and young ducklings, indicating that Aix sponsa breeds in this riparian corner of the Chihuahuan Desert. The lower Nazas River has been dammed and channelled for agricultural uses in La Laguna Region (straddling Coahuila and Durango states). However, the sites where I recorded the ducks (downriver from the Las Tórtolas dam, also known as Zarco dam) are controlled by a series of small locks that allow water to accumulate throughout the year.

For nearly three centuries the country quietly submitted to the rule of the Spaniards, who, in vast numbers, flocked to its shores, built towers and churches, uncovered its hidden wealth, and loaded great fleets of vessels with gold and silver for the mother country. Spain became the richest and one of the most powerful of nations, and her glory only began to wane from the success of the Mexican revolu­ tion, when an .edict was passed by the young republic banishing all Spaniards from its domain.

  • Ethnobotany of the Southern Tepehuan of Durango, Mexico: I
    /. Ethnobiol. 11(2):165-173 Winter 1991 ETHNOBOTANY OF THE SOUTHERN TEPEHUAN OF DURANGO, MEXICO: I. EDIBLE MUSHROOMS MARTHA GONZALEZ ELIZONDO Centro Interdisciplinario de Investigacion para el Desarrollo Integral Regional IPN-Unidad Durango Apdo. Postal 738 Durango, Dgo. C.P. 34000 Mexico ABSTRACT.-The Southern Tepehuan is an indigenous group living in the southern part of Durango State and the northern part of Nayarit State in North­ west Mexico. Gathering is still a very important traditional practice among them; in particular reharvestable edible mushrooms are in great demand during the rainy season when they represent an important dietary complement for the people. This paper describes the Tepehuan group, their environment, and how they know and use at least fourteen species of edible fungi. Comments are made with regard to some other edible species of fungi found in the area during the field work as well as to Tepehuan knowledge of poisonous fungi. RESUMEN.-Los Tepehuanes del sur son un grupo etnico que habita en el sur del Estado de Durango y en el norte del Estado de Nayarit, en el noroeste de Mexico. La recoleccion es una practica tradicional entre los tepehuanes; los hongos silvestres comestibles, en particular, tienen una gran demanda durante la epoca de lluvias, cuando representan un complemento importante en la dieta de esta gente. En este trabajo se hace una semblanza del grupo tepehuano y de su medio ambiente, y se describe como utilizan cuando menos catorce especies de hongos silvestres comestibles. Se hacen comentarios acerca de algunas otras especies comestibles encontradas en el area durante el trabajo de campo y acerca del conocimiento que los tepehuanes tienen de los hongos venenosos.

  • Spatiotemporal Distribution Patterns of Forest Fires in the State of Durango During the 2000-2011 Period
    GENERAL TECHNICAL REPORT PSW-GTR-245 Spatiotemporal Distribution Patterns of 1 Forest Fires in Northern Mexico Gustavo Pérez-Verdin2, M. A. Márquez-Linares3, A. Cortes-Ortiz3, and M. Salmerón-Macias2 Abstract Using the 2000-2011 CONAFOR databases, a spatiotemporal analysis of the occurrence of forest fires in Durango, one of the most affected States in Mexico, was conducted. The Moran’s index was used to determine a spatial distribution pattern; also, an analysis of seasonal and temporal autocorrelation of the data collected was completed. The geographically weighted regression was applied to assess whether there is seasonality in the factors that influence their occurrence. The results indicate that forest fires are distributed in an aggregated manner and are not temporally correlated. It was found that precipitation, temperature, altitude, distance to roads and population severity index are non-stationary. The occurrence of fires is manifested according to population density and access roads, confirming the importance of socioeconomic factors in the distribution of these events. Low rainfall and high temperatures are climatic factors also greatly affecting fire occurrence. Keywords: Autocorrelation, temperate forests, Durango, Mexico; Seasonality, Geographically Weighted Regression. Introduction In Mexico, most forest fires occur during spring and the occurrence period extends until vegetation, stimulated by the first rains, restarts its period of growth and development (Rodriguez-Trejo and Fulé, 2003; Alanís-Rodriguez and others, 2008). Fire occurrence depends on many climatic and topographic variables (precipitation, altitude, humidity, temperature, exposure, among others) which in turn depend on temporal variability (Drury and Veblen, 2008). Normally, wet years give rise to the formation of dense and rich vegetation that, eventually, is the ideal fuel for terrestrial wildfires of medium to relatively high intensity in the next dry year (Fulé and Covington, 1999).
