Los mamíferos son uno de los grupos más afectados por el atropellamiento de fauna silvestre. Fotografía: Mauricio Rueda revistas.humboldt.org.co [email protected] Diseño y diagramación Puntoaparte Bookvertising www.sibcolombia.net Editorial El presente número de Biota Colombiana cubre un amplio espectro de temas de la biodiversidad de Colombia y de áreas vecinas, incluyendo plantas, diversos grupos de invertebrados y de vertebrados, y un tema que, por fortuna, recibe cada día más atención: la mortalidad de fauna silvestre en las carreteras. El incesante crecimiento de las actividades humanas y la expansión de redes de carreteras y ferrocarriles han fragmentado severamente las poblaciones de fauna silvestre, y el costo que representa para los animales el moverse entre los fragmentos es elevado, como lo muestran Adárraga y Gutiérrez en su artículo sobre la mortalidad de vertebrados en la Troncal del Caribe. Por esa razón hemos escogido este como nuestro tema de portada. Por otra parte, continúa la expansión de cobertura geográfica de la revista, que acoge cada vez más artículos de otros países latinoamericanos. Así, el presente número incluye tres artículos de investigadores ecuatorianos so- bre variados aspectos de la biota de ese país. Acorde con esa expansión geográfica, se da también un incremento del número de manuscritos sometidos en inglés, y en el presente número la mitad de los artículos están en esa lengua. Esperamos que poco a poco los investigadores de Colombia y otros países latinoamericanos entiendan la importancia de hacer accesibles sus investigaciones a una audiencia mundial, escribiendo sus trabajos en inglés. Continuamos con nuestros esfuerzos para que el tiempo de procesamiento de los manuscritos sea cada vez más breve, para lo cual esperamos seguir contando con el apoyo de los evaluadores, a quienes expresamos una vez más nuestro agradecimiento por ayudarnos a fortalecer nuestra revista.

Abstract The family Amaryllidaceae has been postulated as a monophyletic group in different analyses, in which three big clades are recognized as subfamilies (Agapanthoideae, Allioideae and Amaryllidoideae). We examined specimens of the family and explored different areas of the country where there were previous records or potential occurrence of the group, in order to determine the diversity of this family in Colombia. The Amaryllidaceae are represented in Colombia by 18 genera and 48 species, of which 11 genera and 27 species are native, including 9 species endemic to the country. The areas with the largest species diversity are the Western and Eastern Cordillera, and the biogeographic Chocó, especially in the departments of Cauca, Cundinamarca and Valle del Cauca. We

  • Early Miocene Amber Inclusions from Mexico Reveal Antiquity Of
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Early Miocene amber inclusions from Mexico reveal antiquity of mangrove-associated copepods Received: 29 March 2016 Rony Huys1, Eduardo Suárez-Morales2, María de Lourdes Serrano-Sánchez3, Accepted: 16 September 2016 Elena Centeno-García4 & Francisco J. Vega4 Published: 12 October 2016 Copepods are aquatic microcrustaceans and represent the most abundant metazoans on Earth, outnumbering insects and nematode worms. Their position of numerical world predominance can be attributed to three principal radiation events, i.e. their major habitat shift into the marine plankton, the colonization of freshwater and semiterrestrial environments, and the evolution of parasitism. Their variety of life strategies has generated an incredible morphological plasticity and disparity in body form and shape that are arguably unrivalled among the Crustacea. Although their chitinous exoskeleton is largely resistant to chemical degradation copepods are exceedingly scarce in the geological record with limited body fossil evidence being available for only three of the eight currently recognized orders. The preservation of aquatic arthropods in amber is unusual but offers a unique insight into ancient subtropical and tropical ecosystems. Here we report the first discovery of amber-preserved harpacticoid copepods, represented by ten putative species belonging to five families, based on Early Miocene (22.8 million years ago) samples from Chiapas, southeast Mexico. Their close resemblance to Recent mangrove-associated copepods highlights the antiquity of the specialized harpacticoid fauna living in this habitat. With the taxa reported herein, the Mexican amber holds the greatest diversity of fossil copepods worldwide. Copepods are among the most speciose and morphologically diverse groups of crustaceans, encompassing 236 families and roughly 13,970 described species.

Since 2012, the Colombian Forest Monitoring System (SMByC, Spanish acronym) has generated wall-to-wall historical information about the deforestation process over the last 27 years at national and regional levels. The SMByC generates a methodology that integrates tools for the preprocessing and semi-automated processing of satellite imagery to detect and quantify the loss of forest cover by deforestation. Also, the SMByC has done an extensive literature review, collecting qualitative and quantitative information to identify how the drivers of deforestation (illicit crops, illegal mining and postconflict scenario) could result in an increased forest lost during a postconflict scenario. Given that Colombia is a country conformed by regions that have differentially socioeconomic and environmental conditions, the study shows how the methods could generate official information and specifies the context of deforestation process of those regions.

Two obligate cave-dwelling species of cyclopoid copepods (Copepoda, Cyclopoida) were discovered inside caves in central Thailand. Siamcyclops cavernicolus gen. et sp. nov. was recognised as a member of a new genus. It resembles Bryocyclops jankowskajae Monchenko, 1972 from Uzbekistan (part of the former USSR). It differs from it by (1) lack of pointed triangular prominences on the intercoxal sclerite of the fourth swimming leg, (2) mandibular palp with three setae, (3) spine and setal formulae of swimming legs 3.3.3.2 and 5.5.5.5, respectively, and (4) specifi c shape of spermatophore.

  • Amazon Alive: a Decade of Discoveries 1999-2009
    Amazon Alive! A decade of discovery 1999-2009 The Amazon is the planet’s largest rainforest and river basin. It supports countless thousands of species, as well as 30 million people. © Brent Stirton / Getty Images / WWF-UK © Brent Stirton / Getty Images The Amazon is the largest rainforest on Earth. It’s famed for its unrivalled biological diversity, with wildlife that includes jaguars, river dolphins, manatees, giant otters, capybaras, harpy eagles, anacondas and piranhas. The many unique habitats in this globally significant region conceal a wealth of hidden species, which scientists continue to discover at an incredible rate. Between 1999 and 2009, at least 1,200 new species of plants and vertebrates have been discovered in the Amazon biome (see page 6 for a map showing the extent of the region that this spans). The new species include 637 plants, 257 fish, 216 amphibians, 55 reptiles, 16 birds and 39 mammals. In addition, thousands of new invertebrate species have been uncovered. Owing to the sheer number of the latter, these are not covered in detail by this report. This report has tried to be comprehensive in its listing of new plants and vertebrates described from the Amazon biome in the last decade. But for the largest groups of life on Earth, such as invertebrates, such lists do not exist – so the number of new species presented here is no doubt an underestimate.

    United Nations S/2019/1017 Security Council Distr.: General 31 December 2019 Original: English Children and armed conflict in Colombia Report of the Secretary-General Summary The present report, submitted pursuant to Security Council resolution 1612 (2005) and subsequent resolutions, is the fourth report of the Secretary-General on children and armed conflict in Colombia and covers the period from 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2019. The report provides information on the six grave violations against children, on parties to conflict responsible, where identified, and on progress made in the protection of children affected by armed conflict. The reporting period was marked by the implementation of the Final Agreement for Ending the Conflict and Building a Stable and Lasting Peace (S/2017/272, annex II) between the Government of Colombia and the Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia-Ejército del Pueblo (FARC-EP), which put an end to a five-decade-long conflict. A decrease in the total number of grave violations against children was documented and can be explained in part by the signature of the peace agreement and the subsequent demobilization of the largest armed group in the country. Over the same period, however, other armed groups expanded their territorial presence, including in areas vacated by FARC-EP, and FARC-EP dissident groups emerged. These developments have continued to expose children to grave violations, in particular recruitment and use and sexual violence. Highlighted in the report are the efforts made by the Government of Colombia to strengthen the framework to respond to, end and prevent grave violations against children, including through prevention strategies.

He separated new genus from the genus Cantkocamptus, and at that time genus Elaphoidella counted twenty-five species and subspecies. In the next few decades genus Elaphoidella rapidly enlarges, mostly because of the great number of subterranean species. Up to 1948, fifty-three species were known, and LANG (1948) classified them into ten groups, mainly on the basis of the shape of the bizarre transformed spines on male's Exp3P4. PETKOVSKI and BRANCELJ (1988) added one new (eleventh) group. The only problem with classification into groups is necessity of both sexes, while many species are described and known just as one sex (mostly female). One unsuccessful attempt of revision of the genus Elaphoidella was made by APOSTOLOV (1985). Maybe the most detailed critical annotation of that revision is given by REID (1990).
