Además, se conoce muy poco sobre los patrones de actividad diaria de las especies que habitan dicha área, así como la forma en que factores ambientales, como la temperatura, las precipitaciones y la disponibilidad de alimento, afectan su actividad. El Jardín Botánico de Cienfuegos posee una abundante población de Tropidophis melanurus (Schlegel, 1837). Para este estudio, se realizaron recorridos al azar de 1 km de largo por cuatro metros de ancho. Los muestreos se efectuaron con una frecuencia mensual durante un año y se tomaron varios datos de los individuos observados, como la actividad o inactividad de estos, la longitud total y el sexo. Los datos de actividad diaria fueron agrupados en bloques de 2 meses para facilitar su análisis. Para comparar la abundancia de los individuos entre las épocas de seca y lluvia se utilizó la prueba chi cuadrado (X2). Los mayores números de individuos activos se registraron en las primeras horas de la noche. Los meses de mayor actividad fueron agosto y septiembre mientras que en los meses de abril y mayo se registraron la menor cantidad de individuos. La actividad de la especie en los períodos de lluvia y seca fue muy semejante, y factores como la temperatura parecen no tener especial relevancia en dicho comportamiento. No obstante, las precipitaciones parecen tener una mayor influencia en la actividad en la especie.","PeriodicalId":33102,"journal":{"name":"NOVITATES CARIBAEA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44929722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An oceanic island provides a unique opportunity to test such a hypothesis and many others related to the patterns and processes behind biodiversity. Our aim was to investigate the patterns of scorpion diversity in the Cuban archipelago, using biotic and abiotic variables and their interactions as explanatory features. We use biotic and abiotic variables related to vegetation, climate and topography characterize the landscape of the Cuban archipelago. In this way, we analyze the patterns of beta diversity of the scorpions, verifying the effects of the variables alone and together. Scorpion fauna of the Cuban archipelago comprises 61 species, grouped into nine genera and two families: Buthidae and Diplocentridae. The interplay between biotic and abiotic variables explained scorpion species composition, especially when spatial predictors were considered. Climatic and spatial predictors affected scorpion beta diversity in terms of richness difference. These patterns are discussed emphasizing the role of biotic and abiotic environmental features and their interactions on the mechanisms of scorpion biodiversity generation and maintenance in Cuban archipelago.","PeriodicalId":33102,"journal":{"name":"NOVITATES CARIBAEA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2022-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47152574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most of these species have been collected in deep waters from localities in the South Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and only one species has been found in the Mediterranean Sea. Many oediceroids inhabit waters more than 200 meters deep with only four species confined to shallow waters. This is the first occasion in which a species belonging to the genus Oediceroides is recorded for the Gulf of Mexico. Here, we describe O. improvisus sp. nov., a species of marine deep-water amphipod collected in 925 meters of water. This species has carapace, mouthpart and pereopodal characters that unite it with other members of the genus. It differs from all other species due to unique rostral and pereopod seven characters, all discussed in detail further in this description. To date, only 20 deep-sea (>200 meters) benthic amphipods have been recorded in the Gulf of Mexico, in comparison with more than 200 species of shallow water representatives from the same region. Our study provides evidence that the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico still hold undescribed biodiversity.","PeriodicalId":33102,"journal":{"name":"NOVITATES CARIBAEA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47415111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some studies have questioned the generality of the assumptions and predictions of this hypothesis suggesting that other factors different to temperature gradients between low and high elevations may explain altitudinal distribution of species in the tropics. In this study we test some predictions of the Janzen’s hypothesis at local scales through the analysis of the individual thermal niche breadth in populations of livebearing fishes of the genus Limia and its relationship with their altitudinal distribution in some islands of the Greater Antilles. We assessed variation in tolerance to extreme temperatures (measured as critical thermal minimum (CTmin) and maximum (CTmax) and compared thermal breadth for populations of eight species of Limia occurring in three Caribbean islands and that occupy different altitudinal distribution. Our results showed that species analyzed had significant differences in thermal limits and ranges. Generally, species distributed in high and low elevations did not differ in thermal limits and showed a wider range of thermal tolerance. However, species living in mid-elevations had narrower range of temperature tolerance. We found no significant effect of phylogeny on CTmin, CTmax and thermal ranges among species. This study did not provide evidence supporting Janzen’s hypothesis at a local scale since thermal tolerance and altitudinal distribution of Limia species were not related to temperature gradients expected in nature. Phylogeny also did not explain the patterns we observed. We suggest that biotic factors such as species interactions, diet specializations, and others should be considered when interpreting current distribution patterns of Limia species.","PeriodicalId":33102,"journal":{"name":"NOVITATES CARIBAEA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46906682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

El objetivo de este trabajo fue estudiar la composición y abundancia de la macrofauna bentónica en los bancos ostrícolas (C. virginica) de las lagunas Pueblo Viejo, Tamiahua y Tampamachoco, Veracruz, México. Se realizaron muestreos mensuales en tres bancos ostrícolas por laguna costera. Los organismos fueron extraídos con el arte de pesca “gafas”. La información obtenida se utilizó para estimar la riqueza de especies, abundancia, equitatividad y diversidad verdadera a nivel mensual por laguna costera. Además, se determinaron diferencias significativas mediante análisis de similitud y ordenación. Se recolectó un total de 1 606 ejemplares del macrobentos en las tres lagunas, identificando 28 especies, 24 familias, 18 órdenes distribuidos en seis grupos zoológicos: Porifera, Platyhelminthes, Annelida, Mollusca, Arthropoda y Bryozoa. Mollusca y Annelida fueron los de mayor riqueza y abundancia de especies. Los bancos ostrícolas de la laguna Tampamachoco fueron más diversos en especies (27 taxa) y abundantes (857 individuos) en comparación a Pueblo Viejo y Tamiahua. Epibiontes filtradores caracterizaron los bancos ostrícolas representados por Brachidontes exustus (en Pueblo Viejo), Amphibalanus eburneus e Hydroides dianthus (ambas en Tampamachoco). Mientras en Tamiahua, las más representativas fueron carnívoros: Nereis oligohalina y Stylochus ellipticus. Para las tres lagunas estudiadas, los valores de la riqueza, abundancia y equitatividad fueron homogéneos en los meses estudiados. Los bancos ostrícolas de cada laguna costera presentan un ensamblaje macrofaunístico propio, dado que se determinaron diferencias significativas con base en la riqueza y abundancia.","PeriodicalId":33102,"journal":{"name":"NOVITATES CARIBAEA","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.4,"publicationDate":"2021-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41655825","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hay predominio de lagartos diurnos, pero sin información sobre el comportamiento de sus poblaciones. Para este estudio se establecieron transectos en las dos variantes de bosque, donde se efectuó un muestreo mensual durante un año y se anotaron las especies y sus datos de hábitat y microhábitat. Se realizó una correlación de Pearson con los valores de riqueza de especies en cada variante de bosque para conocer la influencia del hábitat en la comunidad. Para identificar las tendencias de las variaciones comunitarias se utilizó un Análisis de Correspondencias. Las especies más representadas fueron Anolis sagrei y Anolis lucius, pero todas son dependientes de las características del hábitat. Existe una correlación positiva entre la riqueza de especies y la variante conservada de bosque, probablemente relacionado con la complejidad del hábitat. A mayor número de estratos a usar, mayor número de especies de reptiles.
