  • Checklists of Crustacea Decapoda from the Canary and Cape Verde Islands, with an Assessment of Macaronesian and Cape Verde Biogeographic Marine Ecoregions
    Zootaxa 4413 (3): 401–448 ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) http://www.mapress.com/j/zt/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2018 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4413.3.1 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:2DF9255A-7C42-42DA-9F48-2BAA6DCEED7E Checklists of Crustacea Decapoda from the Canary and Cape Verde Islands, with an assessment of Macaronesian and Cape Verde biogeographic marine ecoregions JOSÉ A. GONZÁLEZ University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, i-UNAT, Campus de Tafira, 35017 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain. E-mail: [email protected]. ORCID iD: 0000-0001-8584-6731. Abstract The complete list of Canarian marine decapods (last update by González & Quiles 2003, popular book) currently com- prises 374 species/subspecies, grouped in 198 genera and 82 families; whereas the Cape Verdean marine decapods (now fully listed for the first time) are represented by 343 species/subspecies with 201 genera and 80 families. Due to changing environmental conditions, in the last decades many subtropical/tropical taxa have reached the coasts of the Canary Islands. Comparing the carcinofaunal composition and their biogeographic components between the Canary and Cape Verde ar- chipelagos would aid in: validating the appropriateness in separating both archipelagos into different ecoregions (Spalding et al. 2007), and understanding faunal movements between areas of benthic habitat. The consistency of both ecoregions is here compared and validated by assembling their decapod crustacean checklists, analysing their taxa composition, gath- ering their bathymetric data, and comparing their biogeographic patterns. Four main evidences (i.e. different taxa; diver- gent taxa composition; different composition of biogeographic patterns; different endemicity rates) support that separation, especially in coastal benthic decapods; and these parametres combined would be used as a valuable tool at comparing biotas from oceanic archipelagos.

  • Rainfall and Flooding in Coastal Tourist Areas of the Canary Islands (Spain)
    atmosphere Article Rainfall and Flooding in Coastal Tourist Areas of the Canary Islands (Spain) Abel López Díez 1 , Pablo Máyer Suárez 2,*, Jaime Díaz Pacheco 1 and Pedro Dorta Antequera 1 1 University of La Laguna (ULL), 38320 San Cristóbal de La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain; [email protected] (A.L.D.); [email protected] (J.D.P.); [email protected] (P.D.A.) 2 Physical Geography and Environment Group, Institute of Oceanography and Global Change (IOCAG), University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (ULPGC), 35214 Telde, Gran Canaria, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 19 November 2019; Accepted: 11 December 2019; Published: 13 December 2019 Abstract: Coastal spaces exploited for tourism tend to be developed rapidly and with a desire to maximise profit, leading to diverse environmental problems, including flooding. As the origin of flood events is usually associated with intense precipitation episodes, this study considers the general rainfall characteristics of tourist resorts in two islands of the Canary Archipelago (Spain). Days of intense rainfall were determined using the 99th percentile (99p) of 8 daily precipitation data series. In addition, the weather types that generated these episodes were identified, the best-fitting distribution functions were determined to allow calculation of probable maximum daily precipitation for different return periods, and the territorial and economic consequences of flood events were analysed. The results show highly irregular rainfall, with 99p values ranging 50–80 mm. The weather types associated with 49 days of flooding events were predominantly cyclonic and hybrid cyclonic. The Log Pearson III distribution function best fitted the data series, with a strong likelihood in a 100-year return period of rainfall exceeding 100 mm in a 24 h period.

Américo Vespucio 26, 41092 Seville, Spain Received 25 May 2019, accepted 21 March 2020 The Macaronesian Sparrowhawk (Accipiter nisus granti) is an endemic subspecies re- stricted to the forest habitats of Madeira and the Canary Islands. We studied its inter-habi- tat diet variation on the largest of the Canaries, Tenerife, during the 2014–2015 breeding seasons. We also compared the current food spectrum (2014–2015) with that reported in a study conducted 30 years ago. Prey remains analyses were conducted at the three main forested habitats, two native (laurel forest and Canarian pinewood) and one exotic (exotic tree plantations). Birds formed the main dietary component of the Sparrowhawk (26 spe- cies identified), but mammals and reptiles were also consumed in small numbers. Avian prey of around 200–300 g were preferred by Sparrowhawks. Three species accounted for 63.4% of the total number of prey counted (Atlantic Canary Serinus canarius,RockPi- geon Columba livia and Blackbird Turdus merula), but their importance varied among habitats.

  • AERC Wplist July 2015
    AERC Western Palearctic list, July 2015 About the list: 1) The limits of the Western Palearctic region follow for convenience the limits defined in the “Birds of the Western Palearctic” (BWP) series (Oxford University Press). 2) The AERC WP list follows the systematics of Voous (1973; 1977a; 1977b) modified by the changes listed in the AERC TAC systematic recommendations published online on the AERC web site. For species not in Voous (a few introduced or accidental species) the default systematics is the IOC world bird list. 3) Only species either admitted into an "official" national list (for countries with a national avifaunistic commission or national rarities committee) or whose occurrence in the WP has been published in detail (description or photo and circumstances allowing review of the evidence, usually in a journal) have been admitted on the list. Category D species have not been admitted. 4) The information in the "remarks" column is by no mean exhaustive. It is aimed at providing some supporting information for the species whose status on the WP list is less well known than average. This is obviously a subjective criterion.

The highlight for many of us was a wonderful encounter with a group of Atlantic Spotted Dolphins which were bow-riding, tail-slapping and swimming around our boat, very close, for about 40 minutes. We also had a wonderful afternoon with local marine biologist Filipe Alves, who is doing a PhD on Madeira’s resident pod of Short-finned Pilot Whales. Filipe was able to name members of the group we were seeing, and give us a unique insight into their lives and histories. All but two of the group took part in a late-night optional squid-fishing trip, during which the sea was lit by bioluminescence and we could hear a pilot whale surface and blow next to us in the moonlight.

Their isolation has given rise to many endemic species and subspecies, of which the great views of Tenerife Blue Chaffinch in perfect light were a highlight for many. We marvelled over the flora, so different to that of mainland Europe, and enjoyed the various species of lizards, plus the butterflies and other invertebrates we encountered. The day on La Gomera was a delight, not least for the numbers of Cory’s Shearwaters, whales and dolphins, plus the White-faced Storm Petrels we encountered. Lovely weather with plenty of sunshine, comfortable accommodation, good food and great company all made for an excellent week. Day 1 Saturday 23rd February Fly to Tenerife South – La Chafiras – Road to Vilaflor Fifteen tour group members met with Andrew and Jessica at Gatwick’s North Terminal for the 6.50am Easyjet flight to Tenerife South Airport.

    Guide to Wild Germplasm of Brassica and Allied Crops (Tribe Brassiceae, Brassiceae): Part I PART I: Taxonomic Checklist and Life History, Ecological, and Geographical Data Part I, Section I of the guide to the wild germplasm of Brassica and allied crops provides a complete checklist of genera, species, subsp./var. in the tribe Brassiceae. It is based on a comprehensive examination of all major floras of the world [see references] and recent taxonomic treatments. Extensive synonymy exists for almost all species in this tribe, with different taxonomists over the last 240 years referring to the same species under different names. A complete list of all Latin binomials and cross references for each species in the tribe would number in the thousands. The list below is therefore selective and only includes synonyms which are most likely to cause confusion to the reader. The following information is provided for each taxon: ACC Y or N whether taxon name is currently accepted SYNONYM OF For ACC=N, the current Latin binomial with which this species name is synonymous TAXON Latin binomial for each taxon (species, subsp. and var.) followed by the name of the taxonomic authority and the reference in which the name was first published. [ACCEPTED NAMES IN BOLD] Part I, Section II of the guide summarizes information on life cycle, growth form, ecology, geography and phytogeographical status for each of the species under its accepted name and is not given separately for subspecies and varieties.
