Colombia’s 1,900 bird species include exclusively Neotropical families like guans, woodcreepers, ovenbirds, antbirds, puffbirds, toucans, jacamars, manakins, and motmots. Migrant North American songbirds may be seen at any elevation and extensive coastal wetlands offer plentiful waterbirds. The lush slopes of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta jut up abruptly from the coastline, and isolated from the rest of the Andes by a "sea" of dry forest, these snow-capped mountains have the highest number of endemic birds of any area in Colombia. About 25% (21 species) of Colombia’s endemics occur here, as do at least 39 endemic subspecies. Nearby, the coastal Tayrona National Park splits at its northern face; a ring of Tropical Dry Forest surrounds the massif.

    United Nations S/2019/265 Security Council Distr.: General 26 March 2019 Original: English United Nations Verification Mission in Colombia Report of the Secretary-General I. Introduction 1. The present report is submitted pursuant to Security Council resolution 2435 (2018), by which the Council renewed the mandate of the United Nations Verification Mission in Colombia and requested me to report on its activities every 90 days. The report covers the period from 27 December 2018 to 26 March 2019. II. Major developments 2. The reporting period has been dominated by growing polarization and divisions relating to a fundamental pillar of the peace process, the Special Jurisdiction for Peace, as well as debates over the proper inclusion of the Peace Agreement in national planning and resource allocation. 3. On 8 February, the Colombian Congress referred the statutory law of the Special Jurisdiction for Peace to the President, Iván Duque Márquez, for his signature. On 10 March, following four weeks of sharp public debate, the President announced his objection to six articles in the statutory law returning the bill to Congress. In addition, he conveyed his intention to propose three constitutional reforms to Legislative Act 01 of 2017 that created the Comprehensive System of Truth, Justice, Reparation and Non-Repetition. 4. President Duque reaffirmed his commitment to the implementation of the Peace Agreement and stressed that the process of review of the statutory law in Congress could be an opportunity to forge a national consensus around the transitional justice system. The proposed changes were aimed, he stated, at ensuring genuine truth, justice, reparations and non-repetition.

It appears from recent imports, the species is becoming more available, but its present high price in the trade, may limit the amount of information available by qualified hobbyists.” Possession or importation of fish of the family Characidae (synonym: Serrasalmidae), or fish known as “piranha” in general, is banned or regulated in many States. Every effort has been made to list all applicable State laws and regulations pertaining to this species, but this list may not be comprehensive. From Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (2019): “No person, firm, corporation, partnership, or association shall possess, sell, offer for sale, import, bring, release or cause to be brought or imported into the State of Alabama any of the following live fish or animals: […] Any Piranha or any fish of the genera Serrasalmus, Pristobrycon, Pygocentrus, Catorprion, or Pygopristus; […]” From Alaska State Legislature (2019): “Except as provided in (b) - (d) of this section, no person may import any live fish into the state for purposes of stocking or rearing in the waters of the state.
