Estas areas se hallan inclui- das en la Reserva de la Biosfera del Vizcaíno, la zona protegida más grande del país. No obstante la relevancia de este complejo lagunar, no existen estudios sobre sus recursos ictiofaunísticos, como tam- poco recolectas sistemáticas de esta biodiversidad ictica en colecciones y museos de Norteamérica e incluso a nivel mundial. La lista incluye 59 especies, 50 géneros y 36 familias, obtenidas bajo un pro- grama sistemático de recolecta en los años de 1994 y 1995. Los 11,864 especimenes recolectados en 39 localidades están depositados en la colección ictiológica del Centro Interdisciplinario de Ciencias Marinas (CICIMAR-IPN) de La Paz, Baja California Sur, México. Siete de las especies aquí reporta- das extienden su distribución geográfica conocida hacia el norte, siendo una de ellas un primer regis- tro para la costa occidental del océano Pacifico. -

Lorentz National Park Indonesia
LORENTZ NATIONAL PARK INDONESIA Lorentz National Park is the largest protected area in southeast Asia and one of the world’s last great wildernesses. It is the only tropical protected area to incorporate a continuous transect from snowcap to sea, and include wide lowland wetlands. The mountains result from the collision of two continental plates and have a complex geology with glacially sculpted peaks. The lowland is continually being extended by shoreline accretion. The site has the highest biodiversity in New Guinea and a high level of endemism. Threats to the site: road building, associated with forest die-back in the highlands, and increased logging and poaching in the lowlands. COUNTRY Indonesia NAME Lorentz National Park NATURAL WORLD HERITAGE SITE 1999: Inscribed on the World Heritage List under Natural Criteria viii, ix and x. STATEMENT OF OUTSTANDING UNIVERSAL VALUE [pending] The UNESCO World Heritage Committee issued the following statement at the time of inscription: Justification for Inscription The site is the largest protected area in Southeast Asia (2.35 mil. ha.) and the only protected area in the world which incorporates a continuous, intact transect from snow cap to tropical marine environment, including extensive lowland wetlands. Located at the meeting point of two colliding continental plates, the area has a complex geology with on-going mountain formation as well as major sculpting by glaciation and shoreline accretion which has formed much of the lowland areas. These processes have led to a high level of endemism and the area supports the highest level of biodiversity in the region. The area also contains fossil sites that record the evolution of life on New Guinea. -

México Recibido en novietnbrr de 1990; aceptado en septiembre de 1991 RESUMEN Obtuvimos series de tiempo de temperatura de tres localizaciones de los canales de la Laguna Ojo de Liebre, Baja California Sur, mediante termógrafos de registro continuo in situ, a 4-8 m de profundidad, durante el periodo enero de 1985 a marzo de 1986. El intervalo de variaci6n anual de temperatura en el interior de la laguna fue 13.5-26% No se detectaron gradientes claros horizontales de temperatura en los canales, de localización a localización. Sm embargo, en agosto y septiembre la temperatura aument6 de la boca hacia el interior unos 2% La mayor parte de la variancia de temperatura está en tres bandas de periodo: variaciones de periodo corto (hasta 26c de amplitud) principalmente debidas a las corrientes de marea y a los gradientes horizontales de ‘IoC entre los canales y las zonas someras; variaciones de periodo intermedio (una a dos semanas, hasta 4oC de amplitud) debidas, entre otros factores, a secuencias de eventos de surgencia; y variaciones de periodo largo (hasta 12oC) debidas a la secuencia estacional de irradiaci6n solar y temperatura atmosférica. -
Abundance and Phenology of Red Knots in the Guerrero Negro–Ojo

Abundance and phenology of Red Knots in the Guerrero Negro–Ojo de Liebre coastal lagoon complex, Baja California Sur, Mexico. Wader Study Group Bull. 115(1): 10–15. Keywords: Red Knot, Calidris canutus roselaari, migration, Ojo de Liebre lagoon, Guerrero Negro lagoon, saltworks, Baja California, Mexico To determine the spatial and temporal distribution of Red Knots Calidris canutus roselaari in the Guerrero Negro–Ojo de Liebre coastal lagoon complex, including the Guerrero Negro Saltworks, we carried out a monthly census from July 2006 to June 2007. The aggregate total of the twelve monthly counts was 32,059, and the maximum count of 6,458 was made in September 2006. The Red Knots arrived in July and August and their numbers were high until October, decreased in November and increased again in December (to 4,595), but then declined constantly until March; in April there was a notable increase to 4,647. We suggest two hypotheses to explain the fluctuations in numbers: (1) that there is onward migration with birds departing in late autumn and more birds arriving for the winter or (2) that Guerrero Negro is the terminus of the migration and numbers vary because of local movements to and fro other sites within a 200 km radius. -
Characterization of a Green Turtle (Chelonia Mydas) Foraging Aggregation Along the Pacific Coast of Southern Mexico

Characterization of a Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) Foraging Aggregation along the Pacific Coast of Southern Mexico Samantha G. Karam-Martínez1,3, Isabel Raymundo-González1,2, J. Alberto Montoya-Márquez1, Francisco Villegas-Zurita1, and Francisco Becerril-Bobadilla1 1Universidad del Mar, Campus Puerto Ángel, Ciudad Universitaria, Puerto Ángel, Oaxaca, México 2Universidad Autónoma de Baja California, Facultad de Ciencias, km 103 Carretera Tijuana-Ensenada, Ensenada, Baja California, México 3Corresponding author, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract.—The primary foraging areas of Green Turtle (Chelonia mydas) in the Mexican Pacific are located near the Baja California Peninsula, although foraging areas also have been documented along the southern coast of the country. The goal of this study was to determine demographic characteristics, catch per unit of effort (CPUE), condition index (CI), and food preferences of Green Turtles in Chacahua Lagoon, Oaxaca, Mexico. This is the first study of its kind involving a foraging aggregation along the Pacific Coast of southern Mexico. Between June 2009 and May 2010, we captured 16 Green Turtles with entanglement nets and had 25 total captures. Individuals that we captured more than once spent up to six months in the lagoon. Based on size, we classified 14 turtles as adults and two as juveniles. We could not determine the sex of all turtles. The mean monthly CPUE was 0.095 turtles/100 m net/12 h, which was one to two orders of magnitude lower than those reported for Baja California foraging areas. -

WaderStudy Group Bull. 97: 36-41. This studydescribes the speciescomposition, seasonal abundance, and migration chronology of shorebirdsat the GuerreroNegro Saltworks,an artificialhabitat located at the mid pointof the Baja CaliforniaPeninsula, Mexico. Censuses of shorebirds were carried out once a month from December 1995 to December 1996. We recorded26 shorebirdspecies. Taking the highest monthly record for eachspecies, the estimated minimum abun- dancein the studyperiod was 110,500birds. Red-necked Phalaropes Phalaropus lobatus and Western Sand- pipersCalidris mauri were the mostabundant. Seasonally abundance varied between winter (Decemberto Feb- mary, mean= 31,600 birds/month),spring migration (March to April, mean= 15,800birds/month), summer (May to June,mean = 1,900birds/month), and fall migration(July to November,mean = 44,300 birds/month). This patternis similar to that observedin La Paz Bay in the southof the peninsula,but contrastswith that ob- servedon the easterncoast of the Gulf of California,where greaternumbers of shorebirdsoccur during spring migration.Our resultsindicate that the GuerreroNegro saltworksis one of the mostimportant habitats for migratoryshorebirds along the Baja CaliforniaPeninsula, surpassed only by the Ojo de Liebreand San Ignacio coastallagoons. -
