Methods We updated distribution maps for 41 taxa, using species distribution A Journal of Conservation Biogeography models and a revised presence-records database. We estimated evolutionary dis- tinctiveness (ED) for each taxon using recent molecular and morphological phylogenies and weighted these values with two measures of extinction risk: percentages of habitat loss and IUCN threat status. We mapped phylogenetic diversity and richness levels and compared phylogenetic distances in pitviper subsets selected via endemism, richness, threat, habitat loss, biome type and the presence in biodiversity hotspots to values obtained in randomized assemblages. Results Evolutionary distinctiveness differed according to the phylogeny used, and conservation assessment ranks varied according to the chosen proxy of extinction risk. Two of the three main areas of high phylogenetic diversity were coincident with areas of high species richness. A third area was identified only by one phylogeny and was not a richness hotspot. Faunal assemblages identified by level of endemism, habitat loss, biome type or the presence in biodiversity hotspots captured phylogenetic diversity levels no better than random assem- blages.

In the present work, the protein composition of this venom was profiled using the ‘snake venomics’ analytical strategy. Decomplexation of the crude venom by RP-HPLC and SDS-PAGE, followed by tandem mass spectrometry of tryptic digests, showed that it consists of proteins assigned to at least nine snake toxin families. Metalloproteinases are predominant in this secretion (41.5% of the total proteins), followed by C-type lectin/lectin-like proteins (16.7%), bradykinin-potentiating peptides (10.7%), phos- pholipases A2 (9.3%), serine proteinases (5.4%), disintegrins (3.8%), L-amino acid oxidases (3.1%), vascular endothelial growth factors (1.7%), and cysteine- rich secretory proteins (1.2%). Altogether, 6.6% of the proteins were not identified. In vitro, the venom exhibited proteolytic, phospholipase A2, and L-amino acid oxi- dase activities, as well as angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory activity, in agreement with the obtained proteomic profile. Cytotoxic activity on murine C2C12 myoblasts was negative, suggesting that the majority of venom phospholipases A2 Submitted 11 December 2013 likely belong to the acidic type, which often lack major toxic eVects.

    Current Awareness in Clinical Toxicology Editors: Damian Ballam MSc and Allister Vale MD March 2014 CURRENT AWARENESS PAPERS OF THE MONTH Patterns of presentation and clinical toxicity after reported use of alpha methyltryptamine in the United Kingdom. A report from the UK National Poisons Information Service Kamour A, James D, Spears R, Cooper G, Lupton DJ, Eddleston M, Thompson JP, Vale AJ, Thanacoody HKR, Hill SL, Thomas SHL. Clin Toxicol 2014; 52: 192-7. Objective To characterise the patterns of presentation, clinical effects and possible harms of acute toxicity following recreational use of alpha methyltryptamine (AMT) in the United Kingdom, as reported by health professionals to the National Poisons Information Service (NPIS) and to compare clinical effects with those reported after mephedrone use. Methods NPIS telephone enquiries and TOXBASE® user sessions, the NPIS online information database, related to AMT were reviewed from March 2009 to September 2013. Telephone enquiry data were compared with those for mephedrone, the recreational substance most frequently reported to the NPIS, collected over the same period. Results There were 63 telephone enquiries regarding AMT during the period of study, with no telephone enquiries in 2009 or 2010, 19 in 2011, 35 in 2012 and 9 in 2013 (up to September). Most patients were male (68%) with a median age of 20 years. The route of exposure was ingestion in 55, insufflation in 4 and unknown in 4 cases. Excluding those reporting co-exposures, clinical effects recorded more frequently in AMT (n = 55) compared with those of mephedrone (n = 488) users including acute mental health disturbances (66% vs.

This richness is represented by 35 species of turtles, fve crocodilians, and 437 squamates including three amphisbaenians, 197 lizards, and 237 snakes. Of these, 45 species are endemic to the Galápagos Islands and 111 are mainland endemics. The high rate of species descriptions during recent decades, along with frequent taxonomic changes, has prevented printed checklists and books from maintaining a reasonably updated record of the species of reptiles from Ecuador. Here we present Reptiles del Ecuador (http://bioweb.bio/faunaweb/reptiliaweb), a free, resource-rich online portal with updated information on Ecuadorian reptiles. This interactive portal includes encyclopedic information on all species, multimedia presentations, distribution maps, habitat suitability models, and dynamic PDF guides. We also include an updated checklist with information on distribution, endemism, and conservation status, as well as a photographic guide to the reptiles from Ecuador.

  • Taxonomic Status of Miscellaneous Neotropical Viperids, with the Description of a New Genus
    OCCASIONAL PAPERS THE MUSEUM TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY NUMBER 153 14 AUGUST 1992 TAXONOMIC STATUS OF MISCELLANEOUS NEOTROPICAL VIPERIDS, WITH THE DESCRIPTION OF A NEW GENUS JONATHAN A. CAMPBELL AND WILLIAM w. LAMAR Despite the contributions made to crotaline systematics over the last few decades (for example, Gloyd, 1940; Klauber, 1972; Campbell and Lamar, 1989; Gloyd and Conant, 1991), the systematic status of several taxa remains questionable. We herein attempt to resolve some of these problems. Terminology follows Klauber (1972); the method of counting scales is that of Dowling (1951). We argue that recognition of certain N eotropical genera (Bothriechis and Bothriopsis) accurately reflects our knowledge of natural groups and adheres to modem systematic practice. Conversely, the evidence that the genus Bothrops as presently comprised is monophyletic is less compelling. The name Bothrops, contrary to the views of several recent authors (for example, Schatti et al., 1990, and Shatti and Kramer, 1991), is masculine in gender (Smith and Larsen, 1974; Inter­ nat. Code Zool. Nomenclature, 1985, art. 30a, ii). The variation and generic allocation of Bothrops albocarinatus Shreve ( 1934) are dis­ cussed and its distribution is redefined to include south-central Colom­ bia. We discuss the reasons for our distinction between Bothrops asper and B. atrox (Campbell and Lamar, 1989), and suggest that possibly several additional unrecognized species may be present in the asper­ atrox complex. Bothrops microphthalmus colombianus Rendahl and Vestergren (1940) is elevated to specific status. Bothrops roedingeri Mertens ( 1942) and Trigonocephalus xanthogrammus Cope (1868) are placed, respectively, in the synonymies of Bothrops pictus (Tschudi, 2 OCCASIONAL PAPERS MUSEUM TEXAS TECH UNIVERSITY 1845) and B.

Abstract: Snake species within genus Bothrops are responsible for more than 80% of the snakebites occurring in South America. The species that cause most envenomings in Argentina, B. diporus, is widely distributed throughout the country, but principally found in the Northeast, the region with the highest rates of snakebites. The venom proteome of this medically relevant snake was unveiled using a venomic approach. It comprises toxins belonging to fourteen protein families, being dominated by PI- and PIII-SVMPs, PLA2 molecules, BPP-like peptides, L-amino acid oxidase and serine proteinases. This toxin profile largely explains the characteristic pathophysiological effects of bothropic snakebites observed in patients envenomed by B. diporus. Antivenomic analysis of the SAB antivenom (Instituto Vital Brazil) against the venom of B. diporus showed that this pentabothropic antivenom efficiently recognized all the venom proteins and exhibited poor affinity towards the small peptide (BPPs and tripeptide inhibitors of PIII-SVMPs) components of the venom.
