Abstract

Little information for Eunectes beniensis (Dirksen, 2002) (Serpentes, Boidae) exists in the scientific literature and museum data. We review the natural history, diet, reproduction, distribution of this species and discuss its identifying characteristics. We present new records and discuss the species’ distribution in Bolivia. As reported in the previous literature, the geographic locality data of the holotype and paratypes are incorrect. We report corrected data for these specimens and update knowledge of the species’ distributional status and natural history by summarizing novel and existing data from the entirety of this species’ known range. We provide a distribution map based on vouchered museum specimens.

贝尼蟒蛇(Beni Anaconda, Eunectes beniensis, Dirksen, 2002)(蛇科，Boidae):代用标本的更新;模式标本地方性资料的分布与澄清

在科学文献和博物馆数据中，关于beniensis (unectes beniensis, Dirksen, 2002)(蛇目，蛇科)的信息很少。本文综述了该物种的自然历史、饮食、繁殖、分布，并讨论了其识别特征。我们提出了新的记录，并讨论了物种。分布在玻利维亚。正如以前文献报道的那样，全型和准型的地理位置数据是不正确的。我们报告了这些标本的更正数据，并更新了对该物种的认识。通过对整个物种的新资料和现有资料的总结，分析其分布现状和自然历史。已知的范围。我们提供了一份基于有凭证的博物馆标本的分布图。

期刊介绍： Check List is a peer-reviewed online journal, devoted to publishing biodiversity data related to species’ geographic distribution. Thus, our primary mission if to fill the so-called Wallacean shortfall (Lomolino 2004) and to improve our knowledge of how life is distributed on the planet in order to better preserve it. These data are essential for studies on biogeography and provide a baseline for the conservation of biodiversity. The first step to undertaking effective conservation action is to maintain records of the distribution of species. Therefore, the journal was created from the need publish basic data on species distribution of any taxon in a timely and open manner, which are often neglected by traditional journals. Check List is a bimonthly peer-reviewed online journal, and will consider for publication: -distribution summaries of a supraspecific taxon in a broad geographic area (e.g., hemisphere, country, biome), as a review of the distribution of a taxon in the given area. -annotated list of species, of a given taxon in a strict geographic area, with comments and illustrations on the identifications, based on original data. -notes on the geographic distribution, reporting new records of one or more species while providing a complete overview on the known distribution of the treated taxa. -book reviews on books related to biodiversity, biogeography, niche modeling, or any associated field that uses species distribution as its primary data source. -opinions on relevant subjects for the journal’s mission and scope
