The setting is a tropical Latin American rainforest, incorporating interpretive elements from throughout Central and South America and even into Mexico. (Some plants from other tropical areas in the world are also featured for their significance to the theme of why plants are important.) Several neotropical animals—two-toed sloth, blue and gold macaw, boa constrictor, and various fish— are also displayed in the exhibit to emphasize the relationship between plants and wildlife. Visitors are guided throughout the exhibit by José, a character who appears on the signage. José is a young, modern-day boy who lives in Latin America. Perhaps he lives near the rainforest, and visits it frequently. He learns about the forest and the plants through his visits and from his tribal elders. Visitors join José as he explores the forest, and through his words and suggestions, they discover the importance of the forest, particularly the plants, and the need to protect it. The signage is presented from José’s perspective, in childlike prose with children’s book style illustrations. The animal and plant ID signs are written as if they are pages in José’s journal. A portal off of the main Zoo path across from Vanishing Giants invites the visitor. A short curved path leads them to the entrance of the greenhouse. As visitors walk along the outdoor path, they meet José on several introductory signs welcoming them to the forest and inviting them to go exploring with him. Visitors enter the greenhouse on the second floor, looking out into the canopy and over the forest floor, and are greeted by lush tropical plantings and the gurgling sound of a small waterfall. Before descending the stairs (or walking along the around the edge to access the elevator), they encounter a dozen or so species of neotropical freshwater fish in a community aquarium. On the left hand side at the bottom of the stairs, visitors encounter various plants that are important food sources, such as breadfruit and cacao trees. Visitors learn about several food plants that are important in Latin America, such as cassava and chile peppers, by flipping through José’s family cookbook. Continuing along the left side of the path, the next area features plants that provide us with beneficial products other than food and medicine. Examples of plants that provide us with products, such as kapok and rubber trees, are highlighted on a wheel that visitors turn to reveal the connections between plant and product. At the far end of the path, visitors encounter the two-toed sloth hanging in a tree. Here an interactive panel with flip ups interprets how plants, particularly trees, support all life through filtering water, providing shelter, and so on. Discovery Forest Interpretive Guide, 7/18/06 3 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com Returning towards the stairs on the opposite side of the path, visitors come to the shaman’s hut, where José’s grandfather lives, in which they can peer for a look at the life of a medicine man. Artifacts such as hunting and cooking tools adorn the small shelter. The boa constrictor display is incorporated into the hut’s design. Along a railing outside the hut, visitors can learn about several important medicinal plants through flip up panels. Next, visitors are greeted by the squawking of a blue and gold macaw perched on a tree. Here visitors are encouraged to notice the beauty and diversity around them by playing a game of I Spy with José. Ascending the stairs, visitors leave the greenhouse through the same door they entered. Walking along the exit path, they are bid farewell by José, who reminds them that plants really do matter and suggests several ways they can help protect them. Discovery Forest Interpretive Guide, 7/18/06 4 PDF created with pdfFactory trial version www.pdffactory.com Interpretive Signage Text Along the outdoor path leading to greenhouse: Bienvenido!

The intermittent gait has been associated with certainadvantagessuchasstabilizingthevisualfield, improved sensing ability, and reduced energy expenditure. We investigate burst-coast swimming in rummy nose tetra fish (Hemigrammus bleheri)usingacombinationofexperimentaldataand numerical simulations. The experiments were performed in a shallow water channel where the tetra fish swam against an imposed inflow. High speed video recordings of the fish were digitized to extract the undulatory kinematics at various swimming speeds. The kinematics data were then used in Navier–Stokes simulations to prescribe the undulatory motion for three-dimensional geometrical models of the fish.

  • A New Black Baryancistrus with Blue Sheen from the Upper Orinoco (Siluriformes: Loricariidae)
    Copeia 2009, No. 1, 50–56 A New Black Baryancistrus with Blue Sheen from the Upper Orinoco (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) Nathan K. Lujan1, Mariangeles Arce2, and Jonathan W. Armbruster1 Baryancistrus beggini, new species, is described from the upper Rı´o Orinoco and lower portions of its tributaries, the Rı´o Guaviare in Colombia and Rı´o Ventuari in Venezuela. Baryancistrus beggini is unique within Hypostominae in having a uniformly dark black to brown base color with a blue sheen in life, and the first three to five plates of the midventral series strongly bent, forming a distinctive keel above the pectoral fins along each side of the body. It is further distinguished by having a naked abdomen, two to three symmetrical and ordered predorsal plate rows including the nuchal plate, and the last dorsal-fin ray adnate with adipose fin via a posterior membrane that extends beyond the preadipose plate up to half the length of the adipose-fin spine. Se describe una nueva especie, Baryancistrus beggini, del alto Rı´o Orinoco y las partes bajas de sus afluentes: el rı´o Guaviare en Colombia, y el rı´o Ventuari en Venezuela. Baryancistrus beggini es la u´ nica especie entre los Hypostominae que presenta fondo negro oscuro a marro´ n sin marcas, con brillo azuloso en ejemplares vivos. Las primeras tres a cinco placas de la serie medioventral esta´n fuertemente dobladas, formando una quilla notable por encima de las aletas pectorales en cada lado del cuerpo. Baryancistrus beggini se distingue tambie´n por tener el abdomen desnudo, dos o tres hileras de placas predorsales sime´tricas y ordenadas (incluyendo la placa nucal) y el u´ ltimo radio de la aleta dorsal adherido a la adiposa a trave´s de una membrana que se extiende posteriormente, sobrepasando la placa preadiposa y llegando hasta la mitad de la espina adiposa.

    Copeia 2010, No. 4, 676–704 Revision of Panaque (Panaque), with Descriptions of Three New Species from the Amazon Basin (Siluriformes, Loricariidae) Nathan K. Lujan1, Max Hidalgo2, and Donald J. Stewart3 The Panaque nigrolineatus group (subgenus Panaque) is revised; three nominal species—P. cochliodon, P. nigrolineatus, and P. suttonorum—are redescribed and three new species are described. Panaque armbrusteri, new species, is widespread in the Tapajo´ s River and its tributaries in Brazil and is distinguished by having a supraoccipital hump, higher numbers of jaw teeth and an ontogenetic increase in interpremaxillary and intermandibular tooth-row angles, relatively short paired-fin spines, and dorsal margin of infraorbital six flared laterally. Panaque schaeferi, new species, is widespread in main-channel habitats of the upper Amazon (Solimo˜es) River basin in Brazil and Peru; it is distinguished by having a coloration consisting of dark or faded black spots evenly distributed on a pale gray to brown base, and by its large adult body size (.570 mm SL). Panaque titan, new species, is distributed in larger, lowland to piedmont rivers of the Napo River basin in Ecuador, and is distinguished by having a postorbital pterotic region bulged beyond the ventral pterotic margin, coloration consisting of irregular and widely spaced dark gray to brown stripes on light brown to tan base, and large adult body size (.390 mm SL). A relatively large pterotic, indicative of an enlarged gas bladder and gas bladder capsule, and allometric increases in tooth number are hypothesized to be synapomorphies uniting members of the subgenus Panaque.

  • Pachira Aquatica, (Zapotón, Pumpo)
    How to Grow a Sacred Maya Flower Pachira aquatica, (Zapotón, Pumpo) Nicholas Hellmuth 1 Introduction: There are several thousand species of flowering plants in Guatemala. Actually there are several thousand flowering TREES in Guatemala. If you count all the bushes, shrubs, and vines, you add thousands more. Then count the grasses, water plants; that’s a lot of flowers to look at. Actually, if you count the orchids in Guatemala you would run out of numbers! Yet out of these “zillions” of beautiful tropical flowers, the Classic Maya, for thousands of years, picture less than 30 different species. It would be a challenge to find representations of a significant number of orchids in Maya art: strange, since they are beautiful, and there are orchids throughout the Maya homeland as well as in the Olmec homeland, plus orchids are common in the Izapa area of proto_Maya habitation in Chiapas. Yet other flowers are pictured in Maya yart, yet in the first 150 years of Maya studies, only one single solitary flower species was focused on: the sacred water lily flower! (I know this focus well, I wrote my PhD dissertation featuring this water lily). But already already 47 years ago, I had noticed flowers on Maya vases: there were several vases that I discovered myself in a royal burial at Tikal that pictured stylized 4-petaled flowers (Burial 196, the Tomb of the Jade Jaguar). Still, if you have XY-thousand flowers blooming around you, why did the Maya picture less than 30? In other words, why did the Maya select the water lily as their #1 flower? I know most of the reasons, but the point is, the Maya had XY-thousand.
