Abstract

We here describe a new Caecilia from Parque Nacional Natural Yaigojé Apaporis, Taraira, Vaupés, Colombia, near the Brazilian border. Although this new species is only represented in collections by three specimens, it is recognizable from all other congeners by virtue of its head shape, its dentition, its counts of primary and secondary grooves, its oval dermal scales, and its small terminal shield. Although its phylogenetic relationships are unknown, it seems most similar to C. museugoeldi from French Guyana. Describimos una nueva Caecilia proveniente del Parque Nacional Natural Yaigojé Apaporis, Taraira, Vaupés, Colombia, en cercanías de la frontera brasilera. Si bien solo se conocen tres ejemplares de esta especie, esta es reconocible entre todos sus congéneres por la forma de su cabeza, su dentición, sus conteos de surcos primarios y secundarios, sus escamas dérmicas ovaladas y por su pequeño escudo terminal. Aunque sus relaciones filogenéticas se desconocen, esta resulta más similar a C. museugoeldi de Guyana Francesa.

哥伦比亚亚马逊地区一新的Caecilia（两栖纲：Gymnophiona：Caeciliidae）

我们在这里描述了来自哥伦比亚巴西利亚边境附近的YaigojéApaporis国家自然公园、Taraira、Vaupes的新Caecilia。虽然这一新物种在收藏中只由三个标本代表，但由于其头部形状、牙齿、初级和次级凹槽的数量、椭圆形皮肤鳞片和较小的终端盾牌，它得到了所有其他同类的认可。虽然它们的系统发育关系尚不清楚，但看起来更像法属圭亚那的C.Museugoeldi。我们描述了一个新的Caecilia，它来自巴西边境附近的哥伦比亚Vaupes、Taraira、YaigojéApaporis国家自然公园。虽然已知该物种只有三个标本，但它的头部形状、牙齿、主要和次要沟的数量、椭圆形的皮肤鳞片和小的终端盾牌在所有同类中都可以识别。虽然它们的系统发育关系尚不清楚，但它更类似于法属圭亚那的C.Museugoeldi。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
