Soleglad, ‘[email protected]’ Euscorpius is the first research publication completely devoted to scorpions (Arachnida: Scorpiones). Euscorpius takes advantage of the rapidly evolving medium of quick online publication, at the same time maintaining high research standards for the burgeoning field of scorpion science (scorpiology). Euscorpius is an expedient and viable medium for the publication of serious papers in scorpiology, including (but not limited to): systematics, evolution, ecology, biogeography, and general biology of scorpions. Review papers, descriptions of new taxa, faunistic surveys, lists of museum collections, and book reviews are welcome. Derivatio Nominis The name Euscorpius Thorell, 1876 refers to the most common genus of scorpions in the Mediterranean region and southern Europe (family Euscorpiidae). Euscorpius is located at: http://www.science.marshall.edu/fet/Euscorpius (Marshall University, Huntington, West Virginia 25755-2510, USA) ICZN COMPLIANCE OF ELECTRONIC PUBLICATIONS: Electronic (“e-only”) publications are fully compliant with ICZN (International Code of Zoological Nomenclature) (i.e. for the purposes of new names and new nomenclatural acts) when properly archived and registered.

Byer3 INTRODUCTION There has been a recent surge of interest in the biogeography of archipelagoes owing to a reinterpretation of classical concepts of evolution of insular populations, factors controlling numbers of species on islands, and the dynamics of inter-island dispersal. The literature on these subjects is rapidly accumulating; general reviews are presented by Mayr (1963) , and Baker and Stebbins (1965) . Carlquist (1965, 1974), Preston (1962 a, b), ~ac~rthurand Wilson (1963, 1967) , MacArthur et al. (1973) , Hamilton and Rubinoff (1963, 1967), Hamilton et al.

  • Us Caribbean Regional Coral Reef Fisheries Management Workshop
    Caribbean Regional Workshop on Coral Reef Fisheries Management: Collaboration on Successful Management, Enforcement and Education Methods st September 30 - October 1 , 2002 Caribe Hilton Hotel San Juan, Puerto Rico Workshop Objective: The regional workshop allowed island resource managers, fisheries educators and enforcement personnel in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands to identify successful coral reef fishery management approaches. The workshop provided the U.S. Coral Reef Task Force with recommendations by local, regional and national stakeholders, to develop more effective and appropriate regional planning for coral reef fisheries conservation and sustainable use. The recommended priorities will assist Federal agencies to provide more directed grant and technical assistance to the U.S. Caribbean. Background: Coral reefs and associated habitats provide important commercial, recreational and subsistence fishery resources in the United States and around the world. Fishing also plays a central social and cultural role in many island communities. However, these fishery resources and the ecosystems that support them are under increasing threat from overfishing, recreational use, and developmental impacts. This workshop, held in conjunction with the U.S. Coral Reef Task Force Meeting, brought together island resource managers, fisheries educators and enforcement personnel to compare methods that have been successful, including regulations that have worked, effective enforcement, and education to reach people who can really effect change. These efforts were supported by Federal fishery managers and scientists, Puerto Rico Sea Grant, and drew on the experience of researchers working in the islands and Florida. The workshop helped develop approaches for effective fishery management strategies in the U.S. Caribbean and recommended priority actions to the U.S.

    Anidación de la tortuga carey (Eretmochelys imbricata) en Isla de Mona, Puerto Rico. Carlos E. Diez 1, Robert P. van Dam 2 1 DRNA-PR PO Box 9066600 Puerta de Tierra San Juan, PR 00906 [email protected] 2 Chelonia Inc PO Box 9020708 San Juan, PR 00902 [email protected] Palabras claves: Reptilia, carey de concha, Eretmochelys imbricata, anidación, tortugas marinas, marcaje, conservación, Caribe, Isla de Mona, Puerto Rico. Resumen El carey de concha, Eretmochelys imbricata, es la especie de tortuga marina más abundante en nuestras playas y costas. Sin embargo está clasificada como una especie en peligro de extinción por leyes estatales y federales además de estar protegida a nivel internacional. Uno de los lugares más importantes del Caribe para la reproducción de esta especie es en la Isla de Mona, Puerto Rico. Los resultados del monitoreo de la actividad de anidaje en la Isla de Mona han demostrado un incremento siginificativo en el números de nidos de la tortuga carey depositado en la isla durante los últimos años. En el año 2005 se contó un total de 1003 nidos de carey depositados en todas las playas de Isla de Mona durante 116 días de monitoreo, lo cual es una cantidad mayor que durante cualquier censo en años anteriores (en 1994 se contaron 308 nidos depositados en 114 días). De igual manera, el Índice de Actividades de Anidaje cual esta basado en conteos precisos durante 60 dias aumento a partir de su estableciemiento en el 2003 con 298 nidos de carey con 18% a 353 nidos en 2004 y resultando en 368 nidos en el 2005.
