ABSTRACT Check lists of the species of sharks, rays and skates (Pisces: Elasmobranchii) registered in Colombian waters. A revision of the species of sharks, skates and rays registered for the marine and continental waters of Colombia was carried out; a total of 176 species (88 sharks and 88 batoids) were found. Of these, 63 species of sharks and 58 of skates and rays have been confirmed through photographic records and biological collections, and the remaining has only been supported by bibliographical references. This inventory includes 69 Contribución No. 985 del Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras – INVEMAR y No. 303 del Centro de Estudios en Ciencias del Mar – CECIMAR de la Facultad de Ciencias de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras - INVEMAR 111 genera (36 sharks and 33 batoids) and 34 families (20 sharks and 14 batoids). Four new species and 20 new reports for Colombian waters have been published in the last 25 years. Six species are deposited in internationals museums but have not appeared in the scientific literature. The number of Colombian material cataloged and deposited in national and international biological collections and collections of images is also included, as well as the amount of existent Colombian bibliographical references on each species. Taxonomic and systematic comments of some groups which validity is discussed are made. KEY WORDS: Elasmobranchs, Taxonomy, Caribbean, Pacific, Continental waters, Colombia. INTRODUCCIÓN La investigación marina en Colombia es bastante joven (no sobrepasa los 40 años), comparada no sólo con la de los países desarrollados, sino también con la que se realiza en los países adyacentes, que en muchos casos es el resultado de un proceso científico inciado hace más de un siglo. Lo poco que se conocía acerca de la biodiversidad marina de Colombia hasta comienzos de la década de 1970, era producto de la esporádica actividad investigativa realizada por científicos foráneos y de expediciones oceanográficas emprendidas por instituciones extranjeras en aguas colombianas. Es indudable que existe un progreso significativo en el conocimiento de la biodiversidad marina colombiana en los últimos años, pero aún está muy distante la posibilidad de tener una visión general e integral, a una escala adecuada, de la biodiversidad de los mares, costas y aguas continentales colombianas y de los patrones espacio-temporales que la determinan. En el caso de la biodiversidad íctica marina y dulceacuícola, este análisis demuestra que los inventarios de los elasmobranquios se encuentran desactualizados, lo que hace necesario renovarlos permanentemente; y aunque esto no garantiza conocer a ciencia cierta el número de especies presentes en una determinada zona, si permite saber cuáles presentan soporte de confirmación. Con este manuscrito, los autores confirman que la diversidad de este grupo en algunos sectores del país, como el Pacífico y ciertas regiones continentales, es aún poco conocida a pesar de su importancia económica y ecológica, y la mayoría de los trabajos revisados sólo incluyen especies de aguas someras, sin tener en cuenta las de profundidad que se han identificado en los últimos años en aguas colombianas. Los primeros trabajos relacionados con elasmobranquios en nuestro país fueron los estudios científicos de Posada (1909), seguidos del trabajo desarrollado por Dahl (1964) con los peces cartilaginosos de la bahía de Cispatá y del estuario del río Sinú. De ahí en adelante se han realizado más de 50 trabajos en Colombia con énfasis en este grupo o alguna(s) especie(s) que lo conforman, incluyendo los dos últimos listados de las especies de elasmobranquios de Colombia (Mercado, 1990; Mantilla, 1998). Estos listados se encuentran desactualizados, y por ende, surge la necesidad de ingresar los nuevos conocimientos realizados en los últimos 15 años. Por lo anterior, éste manuscrito presenta una lista comentada de las especies de tiburones y rayas conocidas a la fecha en Colombia, el cual se une al reciente interés nacional 112 Boletín de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras - Vol. 36 - 2007 de conocer los recursos ícticos del país, ya sea para fines pesqueros o de conservación. Se incluyen, de este modo, algunas anotaciones que pretenden modificar las listas originales y se hacen comentarios de algunas de las especies cuando presentan problemas taxonómicos y/o sistemáticos. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS En primer lugar, se consultaron durante aproximadamente dos años las bibliotecas y centros de documentación de distintas entidades del país (Fundación Omacha, Fundación Squalus, Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras “José Benito Vives de Andreis” - INVEMAR, Ministerio del Ambiente, Vivienda y Desarrollo Territorial - MAVDT, Unidad Administrativa Especial del Sistema de Parques Nacionales Naturales - UAESPNN, Universidad de Antioquia, Universidad Javeriana Sede Bogotá, Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano Sedes Bogotá y Santa Marta, Universidad Nacional de Colombia Sede San Andrés y Universidad del Valle) para reunir información de registros de elasmobranquios marinos y dulceacuícolas contenidos en diferentes referencias nacionales e internacionales, incluyendo la literatura gris encontrada. Durante este mismo período, se visitaron algunas colecciones de instituciones y universidades del país, con el fin de examinar las especies y confirmar su registro, a saber: Colecciones de Docencia: UJTL - Universidad Jorge Tadeo Lozano Sede Santa Marta (Rodadero), UNSSA - Universidad Nacional Sede San Andrés (San Andrés) y el MJHN - Museo Javeriano de Historia Natural (Bogotá); Colecciones de Referencia: CIRUV - Universidad del Valle (Cali y Buenaventura), PNNG - Colección Biológica Marina de Referencia de la Estación Biológica “Henry von Prahl” Parque Nacional Natural Gorgona (Isla Gorgona), IavH-P - Colección del Instituto Alexander von Humboldt (Villa de Leyva) y el ICN-MHN – Instituto de Ciencias Naturales de la Universidad Nacional de Colombia (Bogotá); Museos: ICMN - Museo Departamental de Ciencias Naturales “Federico Carlos Lehman” (Cali) e INV PEC - Museo de Historia Natural Marina de Colombia – MHNMC – Sección Peces (Santa Marta). De igual manera, se revisaron las fotografías y videos de la Colección de Imágenes de la Fundación SQUALUS – CIFS (Cali), con el fin de confirmar la presencia de algunas especies en aguas colombianas. Además, se consultaron los catálogos electrónicos de algunos museos internacionales encontrando ejemplares colombianos en: AMNH - American Museum of Natural History (Washington), BMNH - The Natural History Museum (London), CAS - California Academy of Sciences (San Francisco), FLMNH - Florida Museum of Natural History (Gainesville), GCRL - Gulf Center Research Laboratory (Ocean Springs, USA), MNHN - Museum National d`Histoire Naturelle (París), NRM - Swedish Museum of Natural History (Suecia), SIO - Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of California (San Diego) y USNM - National Museum of Natural History (Washington). De acuerdo a los soportes encontrados, las especies citadas en este trabajo se agruparon en dos Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras - INVEMAR 113 grupos y cinco categorías: el primero, compuesto por las ESPECIES CONFIRMADAS, es decir, especies presentes en colecciones nacionales (Categoría A), especies presentes en colecciones extranjeras (Categoría B), y especies con registros fílmicos y/o fotográficos (Categoría

E-mail: [email protected] A version of this article was published previously in two parts: Oldfield, R.G. 2005. Biology, husbandry, and reproduction of freshwater stingrays I.

Introduction In the freshwater aquarium, stingrays are among the most desired of unusual pets. Although a couple species have been commercially available for some time, they remain relatively uncommon in home aquariums. They are often avoided by aquarists due to their reputation for being fragile and difficult to maintain. As with many fishes that share this reputation, it is partly undeserved. A healthy ray is a robust animal, and problems are often due to lack of a proper understanding of care requirements. In the last few years many more species have been exported from South America on a regular basis. As a result, many are just recently being captive bred for the first time. These advances will be making additional species of freshwater stingray increasingly available in the near future. This article answers this newly expanded supply of wild-caught rays and an anticipated increased The underside is one of the most entertaining aspects of a availability of captive-bred specimens by discussing their stingray. In an aquarium it is possible to see the gill slits and general biology, husbandry, and reproduction in order watch it eat, as can be seen in this Potamotrygon motoro.

  • (Myliobatiformes: Potamotrygonidae) of the Amazon, Orinoco, Magdalena
    Molecular systematics of the freshwater stingrays (Myliobatiformes: Potamotrygonidae) of the Amazon, Orinoco, Magdalena, Esequibo, Caribe and Maracaibo basins (Colombia- Venezuela): evidence from mitochondrial genes David García*, Carlos Lasso+ and Susana Caballero* *Laboratorio de Ecología Molecular de Vertebrados Acuáticos. Universidad de los Andes, Colombia e-mail: [email protected] +Instituto de Investigación de Recursos Biológicos Alexander von Humboldt, Colombia Abstract Freshwater stingrays from the family Potamotrygonidae have a restricted distribution to the freshwater systems of South America. Lack of adequate information about the taxonomic and evolutionary relationships, ecology, biology and distribution of several species belonging to this family makes them vulnerable to anthropic activities, including commercial exploitation for the ornamental fish market. Samples were collected from the main river basins in Colombia and Venezuela (Amazon, Orinoco, Magdalena, Esequibo, Caribe and Maracaibo) for four genera and seven species of the family (Heliotrygon gomesi, Paratrygon aiereba, Plesiotrygon iwamae, Potamotrygon motoro, Potamotrygon yepezi, Potamotrygon schroederi, Potamotrygon magdalenae), and some unidentified species. Molecular markers Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I, Cytochrome b and ATPase subunit 6 were amplified and sequenced. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian Inference analysis were performed to obtain topologies for each marker and for a concatenated dataset including the three genes. Small dataset may compromise some methods estimations of sequence divergence in the ATP6 marker. Monophyly of the four genera in the Potamotrygonidae family was confirmed and phylogenetic relations among member of the Potamotrygon genus were not clearly resolved. However, results obtained with the molecular marker Cytb appear to offer a good starting point to differentiate among genera and species as a tool that could be used for fast molecular identification (Barcode).

  • In South American Freshwater Stingrays (Batoidea; Potamotrygonidae)
    Diversification and Species Boundaries of Rhinebothrium (Cestoda; Rhinebothriidea) in South American Freshwater Stingrays (Batoidea; Potamotrygonidae) Florian B. Reyda1,3*, Fernando P. L. Marques2 1 Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Connecticut, Storrs, Conneticut, United States of America, 2 Laborato´rio de Helmintologia Evolutiva, Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Biocieˆncias, Universidade de Sa˜o Paulo, Sa˜o Paulo, Brazil, 3 Biology Department and Biological Field Station, State University of New York College at Oneonta, Oneonta, New York, United States of America Abstract Background: Neotropical freshwater stingrays (Batoidea: Potamotrygonidae) host a diverse parasite fauna, including cestodes. Both cestodes and their stingray hosts are marine-derived, but the taxonomy of this host/parasite system is poorly understood. Methodology: Morphological and molecular (Cytochrome oxidase I) data were used to investigate diversity in freshwater lineages of the cestode genus Rhinebothrium Linton, 1890. Results were based on a phylogenetic hypothesis for 74 COI sequences and morphological analysis of over 400 specimens. Cestodes studied were obtained from 888 individual potamotrygonids, representing 14 recognized and 18 potentially undescribed species from most river systems of South America. Results: Morphological species boundaries were based mainly on microthrix characters observed with scanning electron microscopy, and were supported by COI data. Four species were recognized, including two redescribed (Rhinebothrium copianullum and R. paratrygoni), and two newly described (R. brooksi n. sp. and R. fulbrighti n. sp.). Rhinebothrium paranaensis Menoret & Ivanov, 2009 is considered a junior synonym of R. paratrygoni because the morphological features of the two species overlap substantially. The diagnosis of Rhinebothrium Linton, 1890 is emended to accommodate the presence of marginal longitudinal septa observed in R.
