2011 Annual Report Panama Amphibian Rescue and Conservation Project
2011 ANNUAL REPORT PANAMA AMPHIBIAN RESCUE AND CONSERVATION PROJECT A project partnership between: Africam Safari, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, Defenders of Wildlife, Houston Zoo, Smithsonian’s National Zoological Park, Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, Summit Municipal Park and Zoo New England. MISSION Our mission is to rescue and establish assurance colonies of amphibian species that are in ex- treme danger of extinction throughout Panama. We will also focus our efforts and expertise on developing methodologies to reduce the impact of the amphibian chytrid fungus (Bd) so that one day captive amphibians may be re-introduced to the wild. VISION The Panama Amphibian Rescue and Conservation Project will be a sustainably financed, Pana- manian-led organization that has stemmed the tide of extinctions caused by amphibian chytrid fungus and other threats to amphibians. We will lead successful recovery programs for Pa- nama’s endangered amphibians and serve as an exemplary model that can be replicated to ad- dress the threat of chytridiomycosis to the survival of amphibians worldwide. Cover image: Wild Atelopus limosus in Central Panamaa 1 EXPEDITIONS In 2011, we conducted one expedition to Cerro Sapo in the Darien and secured an adequate founding population of toad mountain harlequin frogs (Atelpous certus). We also received news from collaborator Doug Woodhams that Bd was detected in Torti on the border of the Darien province in January 2010. We tried several times to get back to Cerro Pirre in the Darien region, but setbacks included flooding and re- ports of FARC activities in the area. As a result, we fo- cused the bulk of our efforts on central Panama with eight expeditions to the Mamoni River Valley, Cerro Brewster, Cerro Bruja and Chucunaque River Valley. -

University, Perth, WA 6027, Australia Location Four hundred kilometres of exposed surf beaches along the eastern coastline of Australia. A Journal of Conservation Biogeography Methods Fish assemblages were surveyed from surf zones of 14 ocean-exposed sandy beaches using purpose-built surf baited remote underwater video sta- tions. Results The degree of coastal urbanization and connectivity were strongly cor- related with the spatial distribution of fish species richness and abundance and were of greater importance to surf fishes than local surf conditions. Urbaniza- tion was associated with reductions in the abundance of harvested piscivores and fish species richness. Piscivore abundance and species richness were lowest on highly urbanized coastlines, and adjacent to beaches in wilderness areas where recreational fishing is intense. -

It differs from all other species in being apolytic and acraspedote, in having hooks 105-115 fJ- long, one accessory sucker 80-90 wide on each bothridinm, and 40-72 testes in two longitudinal rows. This report is based upon four specimens on anterior end of each bothridium, each with recovered from the spiral valve of a common single accessory sucker 80 to 90 wide. -

Comparative Cytogenetics 11(4): 833–892. https://doi. org/10.3897/CompCytogen.v11i4.19925 Abstract Rodents constitute one of the most diversified mammalian orders. Due to the morphological similarity in many of the groups, their taxonomy is controversial. Karyotype information proved to be an important tool for distinguishing some species because some of them are species-specific. Additionally, rodents can be an excellent model for chromosome evolution studies since many rearrangements have been described in this group.This work brings a review of cytogenetic data of Brazilian rodents, with information about diploid and fundamental numbers, polymorphisms, and geographical distribution. -
Rodentia: Cricetidae: Sigmodontinae) in São Paulo State, Southeastern Brazil: a Locally Extinct Species?
Volume 55(4):69‑80, 2015 THE PRESENCE OF WILFREDOMYS OENAX (RODENTIA: CRICETIDAE: SIGMODONTINAE) IN SÃO PAULO STATE, SOUTHEASTERN BRAZIL: A LOCALLY EXTINCT SPECIES? MARCUS VINÍCIUS BRANDÃO¹ ABSTRACT The Rufous-nosed Mouse Wilfredomys oenax is a rare Sigmodontinae rodent known from scarce records from northern Uruguay and south and southeastern Brazil. This species is under- represented in scientific collections and is currently classified as threathened, being considered extinct at Curitiba, Paraná, the only confirmed locality of the species at southeastern Brazil. Although specimens from São Paulo were already reported, the presence of this species in this state seems to have passed unnoticed in recent literature. Through detailed morphological ana- lyzes of specimens cited in literature, the present work confirms and discusses the presence of this species in São Paulo state from a specimen collected more than 70 years ago. Recently, by the use of modern sampling methods, other rare Sigmodontinae rodents, such as Abrawayomys ruschii, Phaenomys ferrugineous and Rhagomys rufescens, have been recorded to São Paulo state. However, no specimen of Wilfredomys oenax has been recently reported indicating that this species might be locally extinct. The record mentioned here adds another species to the state of São Paulo mammal diversity and reinforces the urgency of studying Wilfredomys oenax. Key-Words: Atlantic Forest; Scientific collection; Threatened species. INTRODUCTION São Paulo is one the most studied states in Brazil regarding to fauna.

Matses Indian Rainforest Habitat Classification and Mammalian Diversity in Amazonian Peru
Journal of Ethnobiology 20(1): 1-36 Summer 2000 MATSES INDIAN RAINFOREST HABITAT CLASSIFICATION AND MAMMALIAN DIVERSITY IN AMAZONIAN PERU DAVID W. FLECK! Department ofEveilltioll, Ecology, alld Organismal Biology Tile Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 43210-1293 JOHN D. HARDER Oepartmeut ofEvolution, Ecology, and Organismnl Biology Tile Ohio State University Columbus, Ohio 43210-1293 ABSTRACT.- The Matses Indians of northeastern Peru recognize 47 named rainforest habitat types within the G61vez River drainage basin. By combining named vegetative and geomorphological habitat designations, the Matses can distinguish 178 rainforest habitat types. The biological basis of their habitat classification system was evaluated by documenting vegetative ch<lracteristics and mammalian species composition by plot sampling, trapping, and hunting in habitats near the Matses village of Nuevo San Juan. Highly significant (p<:O.OOI) differences in measured vegetation structure parameters were found among 16 sampled Matses-recognized habitat types. Homogeneity of the distribution of palm species (n=20) over the 16 sampled habitat types was rejected. Captures of small mammals in 10 Matses-rc<:ognized habitats revealed a non-random distribution in species of marsupials (n=6) and small rodents (n=13). Mammal sighlings and signs recorded while hunting with the Matses suggest that some species of mammals have a sufficiently strong preference for certain habitat types so as to make hunting more efficient by concentrating search effort for these species in specific habitat types. Differences in vegetation structure, palm species composition, and occurrence of small mammals demonstrate the ecological relevance of Matses-rccognized habitat types. Key words: Amazonia, habitat classification, mammals, Matses, rainforest. RESUMEN.- Los nalivos Matslis del nordeste del Peru reconacen 47 tipos de habitats de bosque lluvioso dentro de la cuenca del rio Galvez. -
Northern Ecuador, 2010
Northern Ecuador, February 13th ʹ March 5h 2010 This was mainly a birding trip made by myself, Steven De Saeger and Filiep T͛Jollyn, but we all have an interest in all kinds of animals. This was also one of my last trips without a decent camera, so the few pictures in this report were all taken with a compact camera. The highlight of the trip in fact was one of the triggers for me to buy a decent camera͙ Most of the report will be some short notes about which species were seen where (I wrote this more than four years later, so I don͛t recall all details about trails etc. ʹ a good lesson to myself: don͛t wait too long to write a report!). Saturday February 13th 2010 Filiep and I flew in via Atlanta, and Steven from Madrid. Upon arriving in Atlanta, we experienced a huge snow storm, with many flights being delayed or even cancelled. Fortunately, after waiting for some hours, our flight left with a delay of about 5 hours. We met Steven and our guide for the first day at the airport well after midnight, and quickly set off towards Pululahua Crater. This night drive resulted in the first mammal of the trip, a Tapiti. The rest of the day I got a first impression of birding in South America, but no more mammals were seen. Sunday February 14th 2010 An early drive to the airport, for a short flight over the Andes, brought us to Coca, from where we would be taken to the Amazon. -
