Corregido 09-XII-2004. Aceptado 17-V-2005. Abstract: Embrionary and larval development of Lytechinus variegatus (Echinoidea: Toxopneustidae) in laboratory conditions at Isla de Margarita-Venezuela. The sea urchin Lytechinus variegatus is a promissory species for aquaculture activities in tropical countries. In Venezuela, this species has some economical impor- tance but their embryonic and larval development had not been studied. We collected specimens from seagrass beds in Margarita Island (Venezuela) and kept them in the laboratory, where they spawned naturally. With filtered sea water (temperature 28ºC, salinity 37 psu) and moderate aeration, the eggs and sperm were mixed (relation 1:100) and reached a 90% fertilization rate. The fertilization envelope was observed after two minutes, the first cellular division after 45 minutes and the prism larval stage after 13 hours. The echinopluteus larval stage was reached after 17 hours and metamorphosis after 18 days of planktonic life, when the larvae start their benthic phase. Rev. Biol. Trop. 53(Suppl. 3): 313-318.

En este trabajo, previo a un análisis posterior, se señalan factores y agentes de acontecimientos que han concurrido y favorecido tales transformaciones. Entre otros se anotan movimientos demográficos de entrada y salida de población, dotación de infraestructuras y medios para transporte, comercio y servicios, y valorización de la isla como destino turístico y recreacional. Estos acontecimientos y las transformaciones generadas ocurrieron mayoritariamente en la segunda mitad del siglo, y se tradujeron en cambios en la utilización del territorio, que son evidentes en las expansiones urbanas, la aparición de nuevos espacios urbanizados y la conformación de zonas de aprovechamiento turístico y comercial.

The Pampatar Fonnation (Eocene) of Margarita Island, Venezuela, consists mainly of inter- bedded sandstones and shales, with some conglomerates. These sediments are interpreted as turbidites deposited in submarine canyons and fans. The conglomerates represent canyon and inner-fan-channel deposits. The rest of the succession represents the entire range of fan environments, from inner to outer fan. Triangular diagrams of sandstone composition (100 samples) elucidate the tectonic setting. Most samples plot in the "recycled orogenic" field of the Q-F-L triangle, while the Qm-F-Lt diagram shows a wider dispersion, including "transitional recycled", "rnixed zone", and "magmatic are". This association is interpreted in tenns of uplift and erosion of a subduction-accretion complex, which supplied most of the sediments to the Pampatar Fonnation (recycled orogen component), with an additional, minor contributions from a dissected and transitional magmatic are, KEy WORDS:Margarita Island, Pampatar Fonnation, Eocene, Turbidites, Sedimentary petrography, Triangular diagrams.

    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE OF THE GULF AND CARIBBEAN VOLUME 9 1959 NUMBER 3 THE MARINE COMMUNITIES OF MARGARITA ISLAND, VENEZUELA GILBERTa RODRIGUEZ Fundaci6n Venezolana para el A vance de la Ciencia Caracas, 'Venezuela ABSTRACT The communities of rocky, sandy and muddy shores are analyzed and the dominant species are recorded. The effect of some physical factors as exposure to wave action is correlated with the composition of the most conspicuous communities. The applicability of Stephenson's general scheme of zonation is discussed. From the results of this analysis an attempt is made to characterize and delimit the biogeographical province of the West Indies. At the end, a summary of the most common forms of marine plants and invertebrates of the area is given. INTRODUCTION Margarita is the largest of the islands in the Caribbean Sea off the north coast of Venezuela that are actually a part of the east-west trending Caribbean or Coast Range. It lies 30 kilometers north of the mainland in 11ON lat. and 64 oW long. It is composed of two mountain peaks joined together by two sand spits, between which is a large lagoon, Laguna de Restinga, open to the sea. The mountains average 800 meters high. The area to the east of Laguna Restinga, which al- most separates the two parts of the island, is nearly twice as large as the western part, which is locally called Macanao. The total area of Margarita is 1,150 square kilometers, its greatest length being 75 kilometers (Fig. 1). Southward, between Margarita and the mainland, there are two small islands, Cache and Cubagua.

  • Enhanced Monitoring of Large Pelagic Fishes
    SCRS/2012/040 Collect. Vol. Sci. Pap. ICCAT, 69(3): 1317-1332 (2013) ENHANCED MONITORING OF LARGE PELAGIC FISHES CAUGHT BY THE VENEZUELA ARTISANAL OFF-SHORE FLEET TARGETING TUNA AND TUNA- LIKE SPECIES IN THE CARIBBEAN SEA AND ADJACENT NORTHWESTERN ATLANTIC WATERS: A PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS F. Arocha1, A. Pazos2, A. Larez3, J. Marcano2, and X. Gutierrez2 SUMMARY0B The Venezuelan Artisanal Off-shore (VAOS) fleet vessels average in length ~15 m; is characterized by using four types of gear, pelagic longline (for tuna and tuna-like species), bottom longline (for snapper-grouper and sharks), hand-line (for Scomberomorus sp., serranids, carangids, and other species), and gillnets (for Scomberomorus sp., and other species). At-sea and port sampling to monitor the VAOS fleet targeting tuna and tuna-like species using pelagic longline gear was conducted from 2 ports, one in the Island of Margarita (Juan Griego) and the other in the northeastern mainland coast (Morro Puerto Santo) from July 2011 to February 2012. Close quarters, relaxed safety, and community oriented crew forced to alter the at-sea sampling scheme by training voluntary skilled Captains to fill-out observer data forms, identify, measure and sex fish species. At-sea sampling consisted of 1 trained observer trip and 11 observed trips by 7 voluntary trained Captains. Three trips fished in the Caribbean Sea, three in the Atlantic side, and the rest fished in both areas. The number of sets deployed in each trip varied between 8 and 16, soak time were from 6:30 am to 12:00 pm, the number of hooks varied from 400 to 1040 hooks/set, and depth of fishing gear varied between 9 and 27 m.

Robison Rd. Texarkana, TX 75505-5518 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT In the early sixteenth century, the area that today comprises eastern Venezuela and its offshore islands enriched Spain with pearls, supplied Spanish colonists with Indian slaves, and generated high hopes of finding interior civilisations rich in gold. However, the prosperity of Spanish colonies in this region (called the Pearl Coast) proved tragically short-lived, lasting less than two decades. Using Garrett Hardin’s concept of the ‘tragedy of the commons’, this article examines Spanish overexploitation of both the oyster beds around the island of Cubagua and the native peoples along the mainland by competing groups of Spaniards. Building upon the works of historians such as Pablo Ojer and Enrique Otte, and utilising archival research and Otte’s seldom-used compilations of primary documents, this article analyses the dramatic but little-known history of the Pearl Coast, where damage to the environment went hand in hand with the enslavement and decimation of native populations.

    Field Guidebook I G C P 5 4 6 Subduction zones of the Caribbean Subduction/accretion-related high-pressure rocks of Margarita Island, Venezuela November 11-15, 2010 Walter V. Maresch (Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany) Franco Urbani (FUNVISIS and Universidad Central de Venezuela) Hans-Peter Schertl (Ruhr-University Bochum, Germany) Klaus P. Stanek (TU Bergakademie Freiberg, Germany) This guide has been prepared for the sole and private use of participants of the UNESCO-sponsored field trip “Subduction/accretion-related high-pressure rocks of Margarita Island, Venezuela” 2 Introduction The metamorphic rocks of Margarita Island, Venezuela, have been studied and their significance debated for more than 60 years. As paradigms in the Geosciences changed, ideas guiding tectonic and geodynamic interpretations also changed. A survey of the literature on this fascinating island shows shifts from "fixist" ideas and application of classical stratigraphic nomenclature to highly metamorphosed and deformed rocks, through to interpretations calling on extreme nappe development from a classical Alpine viewpoint. Recent discussions on the origin and evolution of the Caribbean Plate, aptly summarized in an impressive compendium of 31 papers edited by James et al. (2009), underscore that understanding the geology of Margarita Island is a key element in understanding the timing and nature of interaction of the Caribbean plate with northern South America. This field-trip, under the auspices of IUGS-UNESCO IGCP PROJECT 546 “Subduction Zones of the Caribbean”, is intended to present a hands-on overview of the rocks involved in order to allow experts from other parts of the Caribbean to “get their own picture”. Needless to say, the literature that has accumulated in 60 years is immense.
