In Puebla, the distribution of Central American red brocket deer (Mazama temama) is unknown due lack of studies. With interviews and field work, we got 30 new records for the Sierra Madre Oriental and Sierra Negra. Our results give information about its distribution, including areas where it was considered extinct. This confirms the necessity to generate a strategy for its conservation in the state.

The vascular flora of the state of Queretaro is now estimated in somewhat more than 4000 species. 1625 of these (among species and subspecific entities) have been critically treated in 174 published fascicles of the Flora del Bajío y de Regiones Adyacentes. Out of these 1625 taxa, 588 (36.18%) are of wide distribution. Out of the remaining 1037, 709 (43.63%) are only known from Mexico and 328 (20.18%) limit their distribution to Megamexico 1, Megamexico 2 and Megamexico 3; 45 (2.76%) species are endemic to the limits of the state of Queretaro: 26 (1.6%) are only known from the states of Queretaro and Hidalgo. The Sierra Madre Oriental, central Mexico, the Mexican High Plateau and the Volcanic Transversal Belt contribute respectively with 94 (5.78%), 92 (5.66%), 37 (2.27%) and 13 (0.8%) species of distribution restricted to their respective regions of Mexico. The following parts of Querétaro are identified as particularly diverse in species endemic to the state limits: a) the Queretaran part of Sierra Madre Oriental, b) the driest region of the state located in its central part, c) the deep canyon of Moctezuma river, d) the highest part of Zamorano peak.

The San Pedro Mezquital River is the seventh largest river in Mexico, and flows through the Sierra Madre Occidental into the Marismas Nacionales Biosphere Reserve, on the coast of the state of Nayarit. The present study is to conform a systematic checklist of fishes in the lower basin of the San Pedro Mezquital River. In total, 52 species were collected from 24 families. Four native species were collected (Atherinella crystallina, Poecilia butleri, Poeciliopsis latidens and Poeciliopsis prolifica) that are federally protected. Five of the collected species were new records for the state of Nayarit. This checklist constitutes a first approximation of the fish fauna present in the San Pedro Mezquital River. However, the construction of the Las Cruces dam upstream, will modify the basin hydrology, worsen the introduction of exotic species and create habitat loss, which can have immediate negative impacts on the fish communities in this region.

Resumen:Antecedentes y Objetivos: En el sureste de México los estudios florísticos, y en particular los que tratan sobre las Hylocereeae, son escasos. Se presenta un estudio florístico taxonómico de las Cactaceae en Tabasco para conocer la riqueza y distribución de sus especies, se generó un listado deespecies nativas y cultivadas y se presenta una clave de identificación de las especies para Tabasco.Métodos: Se consultaron los herbarios CSAT, MEXU, UJAT y XAL, así como literatura taxonómica pertinente para tener una aproximación de la diversidad de Cactaceae en Tabasco. Se realizó trabajo de campo en todos los tipos de vegetación del estado para obtener las muestras necesarias; éstas se depositaron en el herbario UJAT. Con el material colectado y los ejemplares revisados en los herbarios, se realizaron claves de identificación para los géneros y especies registrados.Resultados clave: En Tabasco se registran siete géneros y 14 especies de cactáceas, seis de las cuales representan nuevos registros para el estado. El género Selenicereus es el más diverso, mientras que el bosque tropical perennifolio y el municipio Tacotalpa presentaron la mayor riqueza de especies.Conclusiones: Las cactáceas en Tabasco se encuentran pobremente representadas en comparación con los estados del centro-norte de México; sin embargo, con los estados de Campeche y Yucatán se observa una notoria similitud en cuanto a la riqueza de especies.Palabras clave: endemismo, epífitas, florística, Hylocereeae, nuevos registros.Abstract:Background and Aims: In southeastern Mexico floristic studies, and in particular those dealing with Hylocereeae, are scarce. A taxonomic floristic study of the Cactaceae family in Tabasco is presented to know the richness and distribution of its species, a list of native and cultivated species was generated and a key to identify the species for Tabasco is presented.Methods: The herbaria CSAT, MEXU, UJAT and XAL were consulted, as well as the pertinent taxonomic literature to have an approximation of the taxonomic diversity of Cactaceae in Tabasco. Field work was carried out in all types of vegetation in the state to obtain the necessary samples, which were deposited in the herbarium UJAT. With the samples collected and those reviewed in the herbaria, keys were made for the genera and species registered.Key results: There are seven genera and 14 species of cacti distributed in Tabasco, from which six are new records for the state. The genus Selenicereus is the most diverse, while the evergreen tropical forest and Tacotalpa municipality presented the greatest richness of species.Conclusions: The cacti in the state are poorly represented in comparison with Mexico’s north-central states, but there is a noticeable similarity in terms of species richness with the states of Campeche and Yucatán.Key words: endemism, epiphytes, floristics, Hylocereeae, new records.

Resumen:Antecedentes y Objetivos: Son pocos los trabajos florísticos que se han publicado sobre licofitas y helechos (pteridofitas en conjunto) de Puebla, México, por lo que se considera muy probable que la riqueza de especies en el estado sea mayor a la que se tiene documentada hasta el momento.El objetivo de este trabajo es reportar nuevos registros de este grupo de plantas para la entidad, incluyendo su distribución municipal y altitudinal, así como el tipo de vegetación en que se presentan.Métodos: De 2010 a 2018 se efectuaron diversos viajes de recolección a distintas localidades de Puebla, durante los cuales se recolectaron y herborizaron ejemplares de licofitas y helechos, que fueron identificados y depositados en el Herbario de la Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa (UAMIZ). La información generada se confrontó con la lista de especies reportadas en la literatura para la entidad, lo que permitió reconocer los nuevos registros.Resultados clave: Se documenta por primera vez para Puebla la presencia de 32 especies y un híbrido de licofitas y helechos, la mayoría de las cuales pertenecen a las familias Pteridaceae, Dryopteridaceae y Aspleniaceae, crecen en bosque mesófilo de montaña y vegetación derivada de bosque tropical perennifolio, entre 250 y 2500 m de altura.Conclusiones: Los nuevos registros incrementan de 335 a 367 el número de especies de licofitas y helechos que habitan en el estado de Puebla y ponen en evidencia la necesidad de continuar con el trabajo de exploración en la entidad.Palabras clave: bosque mesófilo de montaña, bosque tropical perennifolio, pteridofitas, riqueza, tipo de vegetación.Abstract:Background and Aims: There are few published floristic contributions about the lycophytes and ferns (pteridophytes) from Puebla, so it is considered very likely that the specific richness of this group in the state is greater than what has been documented currently. The goal of this paper is to document the new records of this plant group for the state, including information about their municipal and altitudinal distribution and the type of vegetation they inhabit.Methods: Between 2010 and 2018, several collection trips to different localities of the state of Puebla were made to collect specimens of lycophytes and ferns. The material was identified and deposited in the Herbarium of the Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana-Iztapalapa (UAMIZ). The information obtained was compared with the list of species of Puebla reported in the literature, allowing recognition of the new records.Key results: The presence of 32 species and a hybrid of lycophytes and ferns was documented for the first time for Puebla, most of which belong to the families Pteridaceae, Dryopteridaceae and Aspleniaceae, growing in cloud forest and vegetation derived from tropical evergreen forest, betweenelevations of 250 and 2500 m.Conclusions: The new records increase the number of species of lycophytes and ferns reported for Puebla from 335 to 367 and highlight the need to continue with the exploration and field work in the state.Key words: cloud forest, pteridophytes, richness, tropical evergreen forest, vegetation type.

Abstract This study shows a taxonomic treatment for all species of Bignonieae from the state of Pernambuco (Brazil). Through extensive herbarium and field work, we documented 42 species and 13 genera for Pernambuco, of which six species represent new records for the state (i.e., Adenocalymma coriaceum, Anemopaegma gracile, Anemopaegma velutinum, Bignonia sciuripabulum, Callichlamys latifolia and Fridericia cuneifolia). In addition, Anemopaegma citrinum was documented for the first time in the Atlantic Forest domain. We provide identification keys for genera and species, taxonomic descriptions, data on geographic distribution, habitat, phenology, and illustrations for all species.

Protection Area

The Flora and Fauna Protection Area (Área de Protección de Flora y Fauna—ÁPFF) Cerro del Mohinora, is the highest mountain in northern Mexico, reaching an elevation of 3,300 meters. It constitutes one of the last high-elevation islands of alpine and subalpine vegetation known in the Sierra Madre Occidental, in the extreme southwestern part of Chihuahua. The ÁPFF Cerro del Mohinora is located near the state border and limits with Durango and Sinaloa. This type of ecosystem located at high altitudes is in danger of disappearing since only 1% or less of its original extension remains; it is considered a refuge for species with boreal affinities (McDonald et al. 2011).

Southwestern Amazonia

Even though it is well known that the flora of Amazonia is severely under-documented, botanical research in the region has been stagnant for the past two decades or more.  An exception to this trend has been the international collaboration in the state of Acre, Brazil.  The objective of this study was to assess botanical progress in Southwestern Amazonia, specifically the evolution of our knowledge of the flora of the state of Acre five years after production of the first catalogue of its flora.  Between 2006-2011, the Acre data-base recorded 2,110 determinations, and among these were 347 new records for Acre, representing an increase of 8.6% in the known flora, which as of 2011 comprised 4351 species.  Of the new records, 6.6% (23) were new records for Brazil and 14.4% (50) represented genera new to Acre.  The new records comprised 322 species of vascular plants and 22 of non-vascular plants.  The most significant finding was that one of every six identifications was a new record for Acre; the total flora of Acre is estimated to be at about 8,000 species.  Advances in documentation of the Acre flora have been achieved through institutional partnerships, attention to rescuing and “cleaning” data, mobilizing taxonomic specialists, distributing duplicates to  herbaria with significant Amazon collections, and undertaking expeditions to regions of the state that were poorly known or unknown.  Indeed, the botanical inventory of Amazonia overall and the management and conservation of the Amazon flora can be realized only through programs that are systematic, integrative and participatory.  Every effort must be made to guarantee that the inventory of Amazonia proceeds at least as rapidly as deforestation and development.  This necessarily means far greater investment in training, employing, and supporting the field work of productive taxonomists.
