These rivers are the boundaries with Brazil and Argentina and most of the waterways are under joint management. This inland water transport is mainly used for international trade cargo. Principal export/import ports are described below: – Concepción Port: Located 1,940 km from Buenos Aires and in the independent management section of the Paraguay River running through Paraguay. This port is mainly used to load beans on vessels. – Asuncion Port: Located 1,630 km from Buenos Aires, this port is used for cotton export and principal everyday commodities, such as general cargoes and automobiles, are imported in containers via the Paraguay River. – Villeta Port: Located 37km to the south of Asuncion Port and used for export of beans and cotton. – Villa Hayes Port: Located near Asuncion and used for the import of steel making raw materials. – Villa Elisa Port: Located near Asuncion and used for the import of oils. – San Antonio Port: Located near Asuncion and used for the export of beans. – Vallemi Port: Port to import cement raw materials. – Encarnación: Located on the Parana River, 1,583km from Buenos Aires, and used for the export of beans.

(IPrLg) iirsa .org D E V R E S E R S T H G I R L L A - A S R I I Introduction In 2006, within the framework of the Initiative for the Integration of Regional Infrastructure in South America (IIRSA), methodologies aimed at identifying infrastructure projects and actions complementary to IIRSA’s Project Portfolio were designed. These methodologies —the Methodology for the Evaluation of the Production Integration Potential of IIRSA’s Integration and Development Hubs [Pacheco, López, 2006], and the Methodology for the Promotion of the Development of Value Added Logistics Services (SLVAs) in IIRSA’s Hubs [ALG, Farromeque, 2006]— were partially applied to the Asunción-Paranaguá and Valparaíso-Buenos Aires Project Groups (GPs, in Spanish), in the case of the production integration methodology, and to the La Paz-Tacna-Lima Project Group, in the case of the methodology for the development of logistics services. The development of these two methodologies proved that it was necessary to approach the analysis of production integration and logistics issues from an integrated perspective. The integration of both methodologies and the complementation of aspects relevant for IIRSA, D partially covered by the instruments already mentioned, would enhance data collection and E consultation to different actors, creating significant potential for a structured dialogue.

GIRAUDO1, VANESA ARZAMENDIA2 AND PIER CACCIALI3 1Investigador del CONICET, 2Becaria del CONICET, Instituto Nacional de Limnología, Santa Fe, Argentina 3Museo Nacional de Historia Natural del Paraguay, Paraguay We analyzed geographic variation in southern populations of Liophis miliaris and tested the hypothesis that L. m. semiaureus is a valid species. We examined 222 specimens from Argentina and Paraguay, including those from the areas of overlap of L. m. semiaureus and L. m. orinus, and compared these data with previous taxonomic revisions. We performed univariate statistical tests comparing L. m. semiaureus and L. m. orinus, and a discriminant function analysis using three morphological variables to compare four subpopulations, including two of L. m. semiaureus and two of L. m. orinus. We examined coloration in life in 152 specimens. These data and analyses support the hypothesis of L. semiaureus as a valid species: univariate analyses show significant differences in ventral and subcaudal numbers, and snout-vent length/tail length ratio between the two putative subspecies. L. m. semiaureus has significant more ventrals and subcaudals than L. m. orinus. Discriminant analysis separated two defined populations corresponding to L. m. orinus and L. m. semiaureus. Populations of L. m. semiaureus that are in contact with L. m. orinus populations show the highest ventral values of all of the L. m. semiaureus populations examined by us. We recorded differences in coloration among the juveniles of both subspecies, including specimens from neighbouring localities.

Location South America. Methods Parsimony analysis of endemicity, likelihood analysis of congruent geographical distribution, and partition Bremer support were used. Results Areas of endemism are deduced from parsimony analysis of endemicity, and putative dispersal routes from a separate analysis of discordant patterns of distribution. Main conclusions Our results demonstrate the occurrence of 11 major areas of endemism and support a preferential eastern–western differentiation of the characiforms in the Amazonian region, contrasting with the southern–northern differentiation of terrestrial organisms. The areas of endemism identified seem to be deeply influenced by the distribution of the emerged land during the 100-m marine highstand that occurred during the late Miocene and allow us to hypothesize the existence of eight aquatic freshwater refuges at that time. The raw distribution of non-endemic species supports nine patterns of species distribution across the 11 areas of endemism, two of which support a southern–northern differentiation in the eastern part of the Amazon. This result shows that the main channel of the Amazon limited dispersal between tributaries from each bank of the river. The levels of endemism further demonstrate that the aquatic freshwater refuges promoted allopatric speciation and later allowed the colonization of the lowlands. By contrast, the biogeographical pattern found in the western part of the Amazon is identified as a result of the Miocene Andean foreland dynamic and the uplift of the palaeoarches that promoted allopatric divergence across several sedimentary basins by the establishment of disconnected floodplains.
