ABSTRACT Temnocephala icononcensis n.sp. an ectosymbiont on several species of montane Pseudothelphusidae crabs such as, Hypolobocera bouvieri, Phallangothelphusa dispar and Strengeriana cajenensis, is described from brooks and small streams in the mountains of Tolima, Colombia. Eggs and adult specimens were found on the carapace and orbital cavities of the hosts. The morphology of the species was studied with whole mounted specimens. The most distinctive character of the new species includes the size, shape and introvert morphology of the cirrus and the absence of sphincter in the vagina. The finding of this species in Pseudothelphusidae of Colombia demonstrates the potential diversity of temnocephalans in this country.

RESUMEN Una nueva especie de Temnocephala Blanchard, 1849, Temnocephala icononcensis n.sp. ectosimbionte de varias especies de cangrejos montanos de la familia Pseudothelphusidae, Hypolobocera bouvieri, Phallangothelphusa dispar y Strengeriana cajenensis, encontrado en quebradas y pequeños arroyos en las montañas del Tolima, Colombia. Huevos y adultos de los especímenes fueron encontrados en el caparazón y cavidades orbitales de los hospederos. La morfología de la especie fue estudiada con ejemplares enteros montados. El carácter más distintivo de la nueva especie incluye el tamaño, la forma y la morfología del introverto de los cirros y la ausencia de esfínter en la vagina. El hallazgo de esta especie en cangrejos de la familia Pseudothelphusidae para Colombia demuestra la diversidad potencial de temnocéfalos para este país.

However, no commensal turbellarians, endemic to the temnocephalan species associated with Neotropical region (Pereira & Cuocolo, 1941; crustaceans are recorded for this country.

During the last decades, knowledge on biodiversity of freshwater decapods has increased considerably; however, information about ecology of these crustaceans is scarce. Currently, the freshwater decapod fauna of Costa Rica is comprised by representatives of three families (Caridea: Palaemonidae and Atyidae; Brachyura: Pseudothelphusidae). The present study aims to describe the species diversity and distribution of freshwater crabs inhabiting the basin of the Rio Grande de Térraba, Pacific slope of Costa Rica, where the Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE) plans to implement one of the largest damming projects in the region.

(Received: February 1, 2018; accepted: August 1, 2018) Abstract Background: Paragonimus spp. are trematode parasites that infect human populations worldwide. It is believed that infection rates within Asia reach five to ten percent of the total population. Three of the largest areas of possible infection are Asia, Central and South America as well as Africa, where the total population at risk is estimated to be 293 million people. Humans are infected via ingestion of raw or undercooked decapod crustaceans. Objective: To identify the presence of Paragonimus spp. in crabs from Bogotá, Colombia. Methods: The native crab Neostrengeria macropa and the aquatic invasive crayfish Procambarus clarkii in Bogotá, Colombia, were collected from local markets, pet stores and waterways and dissected to assess the presence of Paragonimus spp.

By MARY J. RATHBUN, Assistant Curator, Division of Marine Invertebrates, U. S. National Museum. INTKODUCTION. Among the collections obtained by Dr. Robert E. Coker during his investigations of the fishery resources of Peru during 1906-1908 were a large number of Crustacea, representing 80 species. It was the original intention to publish the reports on the Crustacea under one cover, but as it has not been feasible to complete them at the same time, the accounts of the barnacles a and isopods b have been issued first. There remain the decapods, which comprise the bulk of the collection, the stomatopods, and two species of amphipods. One of these, inhabiting the sea-coast, has been determined by Mr. Alfred O. Walker; the other, from Lake Titicaca, by Miss Ada L. Weckel. See papers immediately following. Throughout this paper, the notes printed in smaller type were con­ tributed by Doctor Coker. One set of specimens has been returned to the Peruvian Government; the other has been given to the United States National Museum. Economic value.—The west coast of South America supports an unusual number of species of large crabs, which form an important article of food.

The biology of these crabs has been an active field of research in the last 20 years. The aim of the present contribution is to discuss the significance of the new knowledge on the biology of these freshwater crabs after September 1992, to stress the interconnection of the diverse lines of research and at the same time to suggest promising new lines of investigation. All taxa described from September 1992 to October 2004 are listed, including one genus, one subgenus, 62 species and five subspecies. The implications of this new knowledge on the taxonomy, systematic and biogeography of the family are commented. KEY WORDS. Biodiversity, biogeography, Neotropical region, taxonomy. RESUMO.

Con el tema “Arqueología y patrimonio: conocimiento y apropiación social” busco señalar cómo una indagación sobre el pasado a través de estudios arqueológicos, tiene implicaciones presentes para una comunidad rural campesina. Esta comunidad, ubicada en la vereda Checua del municipio de Nemocón, Departamento de Cundinamarca, se ha propuesto conocer y valorar las huellas que dejaron a través del tiempo varias generaciones de seres humanos que tuvieron por morada esta región. El propósito de ello ha sido el afianzar el sentido de pertenencia con su entorno natural y con una historia construida y en construcción del paisaje cultural, el cual está hoy en día en riesgo de destrucción.

This community, located in the Checua neighborhood of the municipality of Nemocón, Department of Cundinamarca, wanted to know and to value the prints that several generations of human beings that lived in this region left them through time. The purpose of this has been to strengthen the sense of ownership with their environment and history and in construction of the cultural landscape, which is today at risk.

    AMAZONIANA XVII (3/4): 377-386 Kiel, Dezember 2003 The occurrence of freshwater crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda: Pseudothelphusidae, Trichodactylidae) in the Rio Xingu, Amazon Region, Brazil, with description of a new species of Pseudothelphusidae* by C. Magalhães** Dr. Célio Magalhães, Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia, Caixa Postal 478, 69011-970 Manaus/AM, Brazil; e-mail: [email protected] (Accepted for publication: June, 2003). Abstract A new species of pseudothelphusid crab, genus Kingsleya ORTMANN, 1897, is described from Rio Xingu, a southern tributary of the Amazon River, in the state of Pará, Brazil. The new species, Kingsleya junki, is distinguished by the morphology of the first male gonopod's apical plate, which shows a rudimentary proximal lobe and an enlarged distal lobe with a partially indented mesial margin. The occurrences of Kingsleya ytupora MAGALHÃES, 1986 (Pseudothelphusidae). Sylvioarcinus devillei H. MILNE-ED- WARDS, 1853,Sylviocarcinuspictus(H. MILNE-EDWARDS, 1853), and Trichodactylus ehrhardti BOTT, 1969 (Trichodactylidae) are also recorded from this river. Keywords: Freshwater crab, Amazon region, new species, Trichodactylidae, Pseudothelphusidae, Rio Xingu.

Sc en Ciencias biológicas y Sistemática Animal — [email protected] Abstract: Mountain crabs were collected in June and July of 2009 and 2010 in five water bodies of the Icononzo municipality, in Tolima (Colombia), at different altitudes. A total of five species of the Pseudothelphusidae family were recorded from the ar- ea: Hypolobocera bouvieri (Rathbun, 1898), Strengeriana cajaensis Rodríguez & Campos, 1993 Neostrengeria lindigiana (Rathbun, 1897), Neostrengeria binderi Campos, 2000 and Phallangothelphusa dispar (Zimmer, 1912). S. cajaensis is here re- ported for the first time from the westerm ranges of Colombia, and N. binderi as for the first time from the Icononzo area.
