  • Biodiversity of the Pantanal: Response to Seasonal Flooding Regime and To
    Biodiversity of the Pantanal: response to seasonal flooding regime and to environmental degradation Alho, CJR.* Pós-graduação em Meio Ambiente e Desenvolvimento Regional, Universidade Para o Desenvolvimento do Estado e da Região do Pantanal – UNIDERP, Rua Ceará, 333, CEP 79003-010, Campo Grande, MS, Brazil *e-mail: [email protected] Received December 27, 2007 – Accepted December 27, 2007 – Distributed November 30, 2008 (With 1 figure) Abstract Seasonal flooding is the most important ecological phenomenon in the Pantanal. Every year many parts of the biome change from terrestrial into aquatic habitats and vice-versa. The degree of inundation creates a range of major habi- tats. Flooding occupies about 80% of the whole Pantanal. In contrast, during the dry season, most of the flooded areas stay dry, when the water returns to the river beds or evaporates. The Pantanal is a large continental savanna wetland (147,574 km2 in Brazil), touching Bolivia to the north and Paraguay to the south. The maze of fluctuating water levels, nutrients, and biota forms a dynamic ecosystem. The vegetation comprises 1,863 phanerogam plant species listed for the floodplain and 3,400 for the whole basin and 250 species of aquatic plants. The complex vegetation cover and sea- sonal productivity support a diverse and abundant fauna within the floodplain: 263 species of fish, 41 of amphibians, 113 of reptiles (177 for the basin), 463 of birds and 132 mammal species. Many endangered species occur, including jaguar (Panthera onca Linnaeus, 1758). Waterfowl are exceptionally

  • Dracaena Paraguayensis: Aportes Sobre El Conocimiento De Su Biología, Ecología Y Distribución

Resumen: Dracaena paraguayensis es un teiido de gran tamaño (hasta 120 cm de longitud) de hábito diurno, solitario, anfibio y semi arbóreo. Se alimenta mayormente de caracoles del género Pomacea (Ampulariidae: Mesogastropoda), los cuales saca del agua para comerlos. Aparentemente no presenta dimorfismo sexual, pero los machos presentan glándulas femorales agrandadas a cada lado de la cloaca semejantes a las glándulas encontradas en machos del género Salvator (=Tupinambis). La especie se encuentra asociada a cuerpos de agua lénticos ya sean estos naturales (lagunas, esteros y riachos) o artificiales (tajamares y préstamos de rutas), de poca profundidad y con vegetación acuática. El estudio fue exploratorio y observacional, en un periodo entre marzo de 2002 y febrero del año 2003, con el objetivo de proveer información primaria sobre aspectos de la biología, ecología y distribución en el Paraguay, lográndose describir los hábitats utilizados y sus comederos. Palabras clave: Paraguayan caiman lizard; Teiidae; viborón: teju jakare; hábitos alimenticios. Astract: Dracaena paraguayensis is a large teiid lizard (Total Lenght up to 120 cm), with diurnal, amphibian and solitary habits.

  • Distribution, Diversity and Conservation Status of Bolivian Reptiles
    Distribution, diversity and conservation status of Bolivian Reptiles Dissertation zur Erlangung des Doktorgrades (Dr. rer. nat.) der Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Rheinischen Friedrichs-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn vorgelegt von Dirk Embert aus Bonn Bonn, 2007 Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Böhme Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Gerhard Kneitz Mündliche Prüfung: 29.11.2007 Diese Dissertation ist auf dem Hochschulschriftenserver der ULB Bonn http://hss.ulb.uni-bonn.de/diss_online elektronisch publiziert. 2008 Dedication This work is dedicated to my grandparents Franz and Irene Roeder. Their support and love they shared with me throughout all my life will always be in my heart. Widmung Diese Arbeit widme ich meinen Großeltern Franz und Irene Roeder. Ihre Unterstuetzung und Liebe die sie mir gegeben haben werden immer einen Platz in meinem Herzen haben. Abstract The study area was defined as being the whole country of Bolivia. The Conservation Status of Bolivian Reptiles has been poorly investigated. Very few species had been assessed by the IUCN and very few were listed in CITES. As Bolivia still is within the countries with best conserved habitat, now is the moment to plan the conservation of its Biodiversity. This makes the present study urgent and necessary. To be able to identify the conservation status of the reptiles of Bolivia first the species had to be identified correctly, a complete list of reptiles in Bolivia, and a most complete possible database had to be elaborated including geo-referenced data. On base of the obtained information distribution of the species had been extrapolated with the Distribution Model BIOM (Sommer et. al 2002). Later on the maps were overlaid to get different maps as species richness and endemism richness.

Despite the international concerns about this issue, only recently has this question been included in Brazilian policies of transportation. Brazilian Pantanal and Cerrado biomes and corridors are known as two of the broadest wildlife sanctuaries in South America, and their fauna movements has been drastically affected by road development. The last 13 years of road fauna-monitoring databases at Pantanal and Cerrado highways has shown a fast evolution of wildlife mortality caused by vehicle traffic. Pantanal and Cerrado road fauna has been represented by more than 140 species; 16 of them are considered endangered by Brazilian Government as Chrysocyon brachyurus, Speothos venaticus, Leopardus pardalis, Oncifelis colocolo, Panthera onca, Puma concolor, Pteronura brasiliensis, Blastocerus dichotomus, and Myrmecophaga tridactyla, one of the most vulnerable species, reaching more than 200 road kills per year.

The RMNH possesses a stuffed specimen, of which the left forelimb has been amputated in life and of which the skull is no longer present in the specimen. The Paris museum possesses a skull that fits the Leiden specimen. Thus, the stuffed specimen and the skull together form the complete holotype, each object can be considered a “schizotype” of the holotype.

  • Conservation Implications of Protected Areas' Coverage for Paraguay's
    PARKS www.iucn.org/parks parksjournal.com 2015 Vol 21.2 101 CONSERVATION IMPLICATIONS OF PROTECTED AREAS’ COVERAGE FOR PARAGUAY’S REPTILES Pier Cacciali*,1,2, Hugo Cabral1,2 and Alberto A. Yanosky2 Corresponding author: [email protected] 1 Instituto de Investigación Biológica del Paraguay, Del Escudo 1607, 1425 Asunción, Paraguay 2 Asociación Guyra Paraguay, Av. Cnel. Carlos Bóveda, Parque Asunción Verde, Viñas Cué, Paraguay ABSTRACT In Paraguay the highest rate of deforestation was reached in the 2000s, and in some places protected areas are the only remnant of the original ecosystem structure. Paraguay currently has 57 protected areas amounting to 15.2 per cent of the country under protection. In this paper we assess the effectiveness of the Paraguayan system of protected areas (SINASIP) for reptiles’ conservation. We generate a matrix of taxa × areas according to 1,789 records for 182 taxa. Areas with the highest number of documented species were Reserva Ecológica Banco San Miguel y Bahía de Asunción and Reserva de Recursos Manejados Ñu Guazú. Eleven protected areas showed no records. Some species are widely distributed in the country and present in several protected areas, but in other cases numerous species have never been recorded in the protected areas. Three nationally (Phalotris nigrilatus, Philodryas agassizii, and Rhachidelus brazili) and one globally (Philodryas livida) threatened species are currently without protection in Paraguay, as well as the endemic species Homonota rupicola, Ophiodes luciae, Phalotris normanscotti, and Phalotris nigrilatus. At present 90.1 per cent of the total reptiles are found in at least one protected area in the country.
