  • 2020 Costa Rica Crime & Safety Report
    2020 Costa Rica Crime & Safety Report This is an annual report produced in conjunction with the Regional Security Office at the U.S. Embassy in San José. OSAC encourages travelers to use this report to gain baseline knowledge of security conditions in Costa Rica. For more in-depth information, review OSAC’s Costa Rica country page for original OSAC reporting, consular messages, and contact information, some of which may be available only to private- sector representatives with an OSAC password. Travel Advisory The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Costa Rica at Level 2, indicating travelers should exercise increased caution due to crime. Review OSAC’s report, Understanding the Consular Travel Advisory System. Overall Crime and Safety Situation Crime Threats The U.S. Department of State has assessed San José as being a HIGH-threat location for crime directed at or affecting official U.S. government interests. Exercise increased caution in central Limon, Liberia, the Desamparados neighborhood in San Rafael, and the Pavas and Hospital neighborhoods in San José due to crime. Crime is a concern in Costa Rica; non-violent petty crime occurs most frequently. All individuals are potential targets for criminals. The majority of crime and safety threats to the U.S. official and private communities are opportunistic acts of theft. U.S. citizens commonly report theft of travel documents. Theft is common in highly populated and tourist areas, particularly in cases where individuals are not watching personal belongings closely, to include leaving items on beaches or in parked vehicles.

  • A New Subspecies of the Squirrel Sciurus Variegatoides Ogilby from Costa Rica*
    Rev. BioI. Trop., 19( 1, 2) : 191-194, 1971 A new subspecies of the squirrel Sciurus variegatoides Ogilby from Costa Rica* by A. B. McPherson** (Received for publication April 27, 1971) Populations of squirre1s of Sciurlls variegatoídes Ogilby from Central America present an extraordinary variability of color, especially in Costa Rica where six of the fourteen described subspecies are recorded. Five subspecies of S. variegatoides were recorded from Costa Rica by HARRIS (3), while GOODWIN (1) and HALL and KELSON (2) recognized seven subspecies. Subspecies of S. variegatoides were unknown from the Pacific slopes of southern Costa Rica to the above researchers. Since 1963, Louisiana State University has amassed a sizeable collection of Costa Rican mammals. This collection contains two specimens that diHer considerably from the previously described subspecies in Costa Rica as weH as additional specimens of S. variegatoides melania. The addition of the new subspecies to the fauna of Costa Rica and the range extension of S. variegatoides melania into Costa Rica will provide a better understanding of the distributional relationships of S. variegatoides in southern Costa Rica and western Pan ama. Sciurus variegatoides loweryiJ n. ssp.

This is a rural and yet rapidly developing region of Costa Rica known as the Southern Zone, in which many native Costa Ricans and expats from around the world reside. There are several public schools in this region, all managed by Costa Rica's Ministerio de Educacion (MEP), as well as three other small private schools which are not accredited by the MEP. One of the private schools currently services students through grade 4, another through grade 6, while the other private school includes grade levels through grade 12. The student body of Centro Educativo Costa Ballena is extremely culturally diverse, including native Costa Ricans (roughly 50%) and students from around the world (including Italy, France, Belgium, Germany, U.S.A., Canada, South Africa, Israel, Turkey, Czech Republic, the UK, and Argentina). School Centro Educativo Costa Ballena (CECB) is a private bilingual (in English and Spanish) school that includes three components: a pre-school/kindergarten (the Preescolar Costa Balllena), an elementary school (the Escuela Costa Ballena) and a secondary school (the Colegio Costa Ballena).

The fossil record of the Megatheriidae record comes the from Curré Formation, Late Hemphillian (Hh3) (Late Miocene), San Gerardo de Limoncito locality, Canton of Coto Brus, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica, and shows a combination of plesiomorphic and advance characters whose combination is unique among the Megatheriinae. These Megatheriidae remains are scarce and fragmentary, however, they have enough morphological information and key morphological characters to allow us to propose a new genus and species of Megatheriinae, Sibotherium ka gen.

    SitRep United Nations System in Costa Rica Situation Report 3 UN Disaster Management Team - Costa Rica Tropical Storm TOMAS and Low Pressure System in the Caribbean Generalised flooding and landslides 6 November 2010 12:00 hours (local time) Note: Information sources are National Emergency Commission (CNE), National Meteorological Institute (IMN) and selected national and international press agencies. A. Description of the adverse effect: Torrential rain affected approximately 55% of the country since early Wednesday 3 November, due to interaction of a persistent low pressure system on the coast of northwestern Panama (in front of Bocas del Toro) and Tropical Storm TOMAS, on the move to the northeast, towards La Hispaniola and Bahamas, with a speed of 17kph. (NHC, NOAA, 4 Nov 2010) Rainfall has been extremely heavy all along the Pacific Coast (provinces of Guanacaste and Puntarenas) and mountainous areas of the central part of the country (Aguacate and Escazú Hills, Los Santos). On specific points of the Pacific area, the IMN has recorded the equivalent of 3 times the average rainfall the entire month of November, in just 3 days. 1 Torrential rain conditions extended til early Saturday 6 November; particularly in areas with depleted and flooded soils and overflown river basins. Presently, rain has decreased, due to influence of an oncoming cold front from northern Central America, with strong winds. Its duration is uncertain. Rainfall has triggered landslides and floods, movement of around 3383 people to shelters along the Pacific and on Central Valley; as well as destruction / damage on motorways, bridges, drinking water and sewage systems, housing.
