  • Xenosaurus Tzacualtipantecus. the Zacualtipán Knob-Scaled Lizard Is Endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of Eastern Mexico
    Xenosaurus tzacualtipantecus. The Zacualtipán knob-scaled lizard is endemic to the Sierra Madre Oriental of eastern Mexico. This medium-large lizard (female holotype measures 188 mm in total length) is known only from the vicinity of the type locality in eastern Hidalgo, at an elevation of 1,900 m in pine-oak forest, and a nearby locality at 2,000 m in northern Veracruz (Woolrich- Piña and Smith 2012). Xenosaurus tzacualtipantecus is thought to belong to the northern clade of the genus, which also contains X. newmanorum and X. platyceps (Bhullar 2011). As with its congeners, X. tzacualtipantecus is an inhabitant of crevices in limestone rocks. This species consumes beetles and lepidopteran larvae and gives birth to living young. The habitat of this lizard in the vicinity of the type locality is being deforested, and people in nearby towns have created an open garbage dump in this area. We determined its EVS as 17, in the middle of the high vulnerability category (see text for explanation), and its status by the IUCN and SEMAR- NAT presently are undetermined. This newly described endemic species is one of nine known species in the monogeneric family Xenosauridae, which is endemic to northern Mesoamerica (Mexico from Tamaulipas to Chiapas and into the montane portions of Alta Verapaz, Guatemala). All but one of these nine species is endemic to Mexico.

The snake Phalotris lemniscatus is a polymorphic species regarding color, which varies between light shades with a yellow predominance (pale yellow-brown) to darker shades with a red predominance (red-dark). Pale yellow- brown individuals are more frequent in coastal populations while there is a tendency of increasing the frequency of red-dark morphs in inland areas. Considering the variation in substrate color along the species distribution (light/ sandy on the coast to reddish and dark/argillaceous in inland areas), we raise the hypothesis that the predation rate of each morph would be lower in sites were its crypsis potential is higher.

    UMA NOVA ESPÉCIE DE Phalotris (SERPENTES, DIPSADIDAE) DO CERRADO NO NORDESTE DO BRASIL A NEW SPECIES OF Phalotris (SERPENTES, DIPSADIDAE) FROM CERRADO IN THE NORTHEAST BRAZIL Adriano Lima Silveira Biótica Estudos Ambientais. Fazenda Gameleira, região de São Jerônimo, CEP 38770-000, João Pinheiro, MG, Brasil [email protected] RESUMO O gênero Phalotris é atualmente composto por 15 espécies de serpentes que se distribuem em áreas de formações abertas na América do Sul. As espécies do gênero encontram-se arranjadas em três grupos, dos quais o grupo de P. nasutus contempla esta espécie e P. concolor, P. lativittatus, P. nigrilatus e P. labiomaculatus. No presente trabalho, descreve-se uma nova espécie de Phalotris do Cerrado no Nordeste do Brasil, pertencente ao grupo de P. nasutus. O novo táxon é conhecido apenas do holótipo, procedente de Cocos, no sudoeste do estado da Bahia. A nova espécie é diagnosticada das demais congêneres por apresentar uma combinação exclusiva de caracteres, dentre eles: escama rostral proeminente, mas com o ápice arredondado; escama rostral em contato com pré-frontal; 1+1 escamas temporais; número relativamente elevado de escamas ventrais (202) e subcaudais (36); dorso com coloração uniforme, amarelado em preservação e vermelho-alaranjado em vida; dorso e lateral da cabeça de cor preta uniforme, com manchas brancas no lábio; um colar nucal anterior branco, evidente e muito estreito (1-2 escamas); um colar nucal posterior preto, evidente e extenso (3-5 escamas). Dentre as espécies do grupo de P. nasutus, o novo táxon exibe maior similaridade fenotípica com P. labiomaculatus e P. concolor. A nova espécie é considerada endêmica do Cerrado, um dos biomas mais ameaçados do planeta.

  • Advice to the Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population
    The Minister included this species in the vulnerable category, effective from 11 May 2012 Advice to the Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities from the Threatened Species Scientific Committee (the Committee) on Amendment to the list of Threatened Species under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) 1. Name Acanthophis hawkei The species is commonly known as the plains death adder. It is in the Family Elapidae. 2. Reason for Conservation Assessment by the Committee This advice follows assessment of information provided by a public nomination to list the plains death adder. The nominator suggested listing in the vulnerable category of the list. This is the Committee’s first consideration of the species under the EPBC Act. 3. Summary of Conclusion The Committee judges that the species has been demonstrated to have met sufficient elements of Criterion 1 to make it eligible for listing as vulnerable. 4. Taxonomy The plains death adder is conventionally accepted as a distinct species. The species has been formally described by Wells and Wellington (1985) and the subsequent genetic work by Wüster et al. (2005) allows the species to be defined by reference to a phylogenetic clade and accessioned sequences. A scientific institution has a specimen of the species (Northern Territory museum (R3677)) and the taxon is recognised as a distinct species by both the Northern Territory museum and the Queensland Museum. 5. Description The plains death adder is a robust terrestrial snake which grows to a maximum length of approximately 1.2 m (Wells and Wellington, 1985). The species’ dorsal side ranges in colour from shades of grey to a brownish-red, usually with wide, lighter bands across the body.

    A diverse snake fauna from the early Eocene of Vastan Lignite Mine, Gujarat, India JEAN−CLAUDE RAGE, ANNELISE FOLIE, RAJENDRA S. RANA, HUKAM SINGH, KENNETH D. ROSE, and THIERRY SMITH Rage, J.−C., Folie, A., Rana, R.S., Singh, H., Rose, K.D., and Smith, T. 2008. A diverse snake fauna from the early Eocene of Vastan Lignite Mine, Gujarat, India. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 53 (3): 391–403. The early Eocene (Ypresian) Cambay Formation of Vastan Lignite Mine in Gujarat, western India, has produced a di− verse assemblage of snakes including at least ten species that belong to the Madtsoiidae, Palaeophiidae (Palaeophis and Pterosphenus), Boidae, and several Caenophidia. Within the latter taxon, the Colubroidea are represented by Russel− lophis crassus sp. nov. (Russellophiidae) and by Procerophis sahnii gen. et sp. nov. Thaumastophis missiaeni gen. et sp. nov. is a caenophidian of uncertain family assignment. At least two other forms probably represent new genera and spe− cies, but they are not named; both appear to be related to the Caenophidia. The number of taxa that represent the Colubroidea or at least the Caenophidia, i.e., advanced snakes, is astonishing for the Eocene. This is consistent with the view that Asia played an important part in the early history of these taxa. The fossils come from marine and continental levels; however, no significant difference is evident between faunas from these levels. The fauna from Vastan Mine in− cludes highly aquatic, amphibious, and terrestrial snakes. All are found in the continental levels, including the aquatic palaeophiids, whereas the marine beds yielded only two taxa.

  • Attachment J Assessment of Existing Paleontologic Data Along with Field Survey Results for the Jonah Field
    Attachment J Assessment of Existing Paleontologic Data Along with Field Survey Results for the Jonah Field June 12, 2007 ABSTRACT This is compilation of a technical analysis of existing paleontological data and a limited, selective paleontological field survey of the geologic bedrock formations that will be impacted on Federal lands by construction associated with energy development in the Jonah Field, Sublette County, Wyoming. The field survey was done on approximately 20% of the field, primarily where good bedrock was exposed or where there were existing, debris piles from recent construction. Some potentially rich areas were inaccessible due to biological restrictions. Heavily vegetated areas were not examined. All locality data are compiled in the separate confidential appendix D. Uinta Paleontological Associates Inc. was contracted to do this work through EnCana Oil & Gas Inc. In addition BP and Ultra Resources are partners in this project as they also have holdings in the Jonah Field. For this project, we reviewed a variety of geologic maps for the area (approximately 47 sections); none of maps have a scale better than 1:100,000. The Wyoming 1:500,000 geology map (Love and Christiansen, 1985) reveals two Eocene geologic formations with four members mapped within or near the Jonah Field (Wasatch – Alkali Creek and Main Body; Green River – Laney and Wilkins Peak members). In addition, Winterfeld’s 1997 paleontology report for the proposed Jonah Field II Project was reviewed carefully. After considerable review of the literature and museum data, it became obvious that the portion of the mapped Alkali Creek Member in the Jonah Field is probably misinterpreted.
