    Abstract: Over the last 20 years surveys of the population of the Iberian lynx Lynx pardinus in Doñana National Park and its surroundings in Spain have produced estimates of a total population of 50–60 in fragmented patches. The population was estimated to be 26 adults in 2002–2003. Use of camera trapping and other field methods during 2004–2008 allowed us to determine the abundance of the lynx and to estimate demographic statistics. Estimated annual abundance of adult and subadult lynxes averaged 38 individuals (range 35–43). Although the population exhibited a continuous distribution it was concentrated in three major areas, including Doñana National Park, with an average area occupied of 620 km 2 . Our results suggest that the Doñana Iberian lynx population now has a different structure from that in the 1990s and in particular a more continuous spatial distribution. These results indicate an improved, but not secure, scenario for the population. The continuous geographical distribution suggests the population is currently less vulnerable to extinction than 10 years ago. Conservation actions now need to focus outside Doñana National Park on the reconversion of pine plantations into original Mediterranean scrubland habitat, and the continuity and intensification of ongoing restocking with rabbits in fenced areas.

    Evolutionary paths among different red galaxy types at 0.3 〈 z 〈 1.5 and the build-up of massive E-S0's

    Abstract: Some recent observations seem to disagree with hierarchical theories of galaxy formation on the role of major mergers in a late build-up of massive early-type galaxies. We re-address this question by analysing the morphology, structural distortion level, and star formation enhancement of a sample of massive galaxies (M * 〉 5 × 10 10 M ⊙ ) lying on the Red Sequence and its surroundings at 0.3 〈 z 〈 1.5. We have used an initial sample of ~1800 sources with K s 〈 20.5 mag over an area ~155 arcmin 2 on the Groth Strip, combining data from the Rainbow Extragalactic Database and the GOYA Survey. Red galaxy classes that can be directly associated to intermediate stages of major mergers and to their final products have been defined. For the first time we report observationally the existence of a dominant evolutionary path among massive red galaxies at 0.6 〈 z 〈 1.5, consisting in the conversion of irregular disks into irregular spheroids, and of these ones into regular spheroids. This result points to: 1) the massive red regular galaxies at low redshifts derive from the irregular ones populating the Red Sequence and its neighbourhood at earlier epochs up to z ~ 1.5; 2) the progenitors of the bulk of present-day massive red regular galaxies have been blue disks that have migrated to the Red Sequence majoritarily through major mergers at 0.6 〈 z 〈 1.2 (these mergers thus starting at z ~ 1.5); 3) the formation of E-S0's that end up with M * 〉 10 11 M ⊙ at z = 0 through gas-rich major mergers has frozen since z ~ 0.6. Our results support that major mergers have played the dominant role in the definitive build-up of present-day E-S0's with M * 〉 10 11 M ⊙ at 0.6 〈 z 〈 1.2, in good agreement with the hierarchical scenario proposed in the Eliche-Moral et al . (2010a) model (see also Eliche-Moral et al . 2010b). This study is published in Prieto et al . (2012).

    Abstract: In 1990, Latin American countries committed to psychiatric reforms including psychiatric bed removals. Aim of the study was to quantify changes in psychiatric bed numbers and prison population rates after the initiation of psychiatric reforms in Latin America. Methods We searched primary sources to collect numbers of psychiatric beds and prison population rates across Latin America between the years 1991 and 2017. Changes of psychiatric bed numbers were compared against trends of incarceration rates and tested for associations using fixed-effects regression of panel data. Economic variables were used as covariates. Reliable data were obtained from 17 Latin American countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, El Salvador, Uruguay and Venezuela. Results The number of psychiatric beds decreased in 15 out of 17 Latin American countries (median −35%) since 1991. Our findings indicate the total removal of 69 415 psychiatric beds. The prison population increased in all countries (median +181%). Panel data regression analyses showed a significant inverse relationship −2.70 (95% CI −4.28 to −1.11; p = 0.002) indicating that prison populations increased more when and where more psychiatric beds were removed. This relationship held up when introducing per capita income and income inequality as covariates −2.37 (95% CI −3.95 to −0.8; p = 0.006). Conclusions Important numbers of psychiatric beds have been removed in Latin America. Removals of psychiatric beds were related to increasing incarceration rates. Minimum numbers of psychiatric beds need to be defined and addressed in national policies.

    Abstract: A number of mangrove systems with associated tidal flats occur in Coiba Island, located off the Pacific coast of Panama, two of which were selected for the present study: Santa Cruz and El Gambute. Three transects were selected on each tidal flat and three sampling sites were arranged along each one: lower, middle and upper intertidal. During 1997, two samplings were carried out at each site, in February and November. The results of the faunistic studies revealed the presence of ten species of Orbiniidae, two of which belonged to the genus Leodamas . Leodamas minutus sp. nov. is easily distinguished from all other species within the genus by having a cylindrical thorax composed of 13 chaetigers, the first three chaetigers without notopodial lobes, thoracic neuropodia without postchaetal process, and abdominal neuropodia, short, bilobed and with protruding acicula. Leodamas platythoracicus sp. nov. can be recognized by its thorax, distinctly flattened in the posterior half and consisting of about 19 chaetigers, by its thoracic neuropodia, with many spines arranged in one or two rows and few, if any, slender capillaries, and by the shape of its abdominal neuropodia, which are long and subterminally notched and bear a distal process.

    Does genetic variation on the shy–bold continuum influence carnivore attacks on people? Evidence from the brown bear

    Abstract: Little is known about the heritable behavioural traits of attacks by large carnivores on people. During the last 30 years attacks by brown bears Ursus arctos on people in the Cantabrian Mountains of Spain have been disproportionately concentrated in the eastern subpopulation. Excluding factors such as the existence of a single unusually bold bear, a higher human population density, particular human activities promoting encounters, or clear habitat differences in the area of this subpopulation, we propose that a plausible explanation for the unbalanced geographical attack pattern is that this subpopulation, separated a century earlier from the western subpopulation, may harbour a higher proportion of bolder bears. In the absence of genetic analyses this explanation remains speculative, but supports the hypothesis that genetic variation on the shy–bold continuum may influence attacks of large carnivores on people.

    Abstract: A new form of Xenungulata Paula Couto, 1952 from red levels of the Peñas Coloradas Formation in a locality near Puerto Visser (45°17'S, 67°01'W), Chubut province, Argentina, is represented by a fragmentary left jaw with the m3 (MPEF-PV 1871). Notoetayoa gargantuai n. gen. and n. sp. is the first ever found in direct association with Carodnia feruglioi Simpson, 1935a which characterizes the incompletely known homonymous zone of the late Paleocene of Patagonia. A preliminary phylogenetic analysis, including representatives of “Condylarthra,” Litopterna, Notoungulata, Pyrotheria, Xenungulata and Astrapotheria, plus the characters that could be scored in the new taxon, was performed using TNT software. A single most parsimonious tree was obtained. Notoetayoa gargantuai has a closer phylogenetic relationship with the Xenungulate Etayoa bacatensis Villarroel, 1987 from the ?middle Paleocene of Colombia than with any other Tertiary ungulate group of South America. Notoetayoa gargantuai fills an important gap in the knowledge of the mammalian faunas from the Paleocene of Patagonia, particularly of the poorly known pre-Itaborian times.

    Unusual host selection in Amblycerus dispar larvae (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae: Bruchinae) and its potential impact on stored almonds ( Prunus dulcis )
    Cambridge University Press (CUP) ; 2021

    In: Bulletin of Entomological Research, Cambridge University Press (CUP), Vol. 111, No. 5 ( 2021-10), p. 585-594
    Abstract: We present the first report of Amblycerus dispar (Sharp) attacking stored almonds [ Prunus dulcis (Mill.) D. A. Webb] in Argentina. A summarized diagnosis, illustrations, and photographs of the adult and mature larva are provided to facilitate identification. We performed species distribution models for A. dispar and its main host plant Geoffroea decorticans (Gillies ex Hook. & Arn.) Burkart. We include A. dispar into a previous morphological character matrix and conduct a phylogenetic analysis to infer its phylogenetic position. The evolution of host plant associations of the genus Amblycerus is herein re-analyzed. A. dispar and its main host shows high suitability areas especially in central-west Argentina and Chile, whereas for the USA, high suitability areas were found for the south-western which include the area of almond production in this country. Although the presence of A. dispar in the USA region is very unlikely, we recommend some awareness as other bruchines are present in the area. Although A. dispar is unlikely to become an economically important risk, monitoring for early detection is recommended to avoid productivity loss, especially when the native host is nearby cultivated areas. A. dispar is hypothesized to be the sister species of A. schwarzi Kingsolver. The colonization of a Rosaceae species is a novelty for this genus, being host shifts known as an important factor affecting both natural and agricultural systems.

    Abstract: Pionosyllis Malmgren, 1867 is revised based on a cladistic analysis of the 41 species considered herein as valid, two newly described species in this paper ( Basidiosyllis victoriae and Opisthodonta russelli ), 11 species from other genera actually belonging, or related to, Pionosyllis , and 13 syllid species from different subfamilies. The phylogenetic analysis is based on 55 characters; a strict consensus of 1200 equally parsimonious trees (length = 314 steps) was obtained. The clades containing species usually included within Pionosyllis are newly named within the frame of a new Linnean classification of the group (except for one, belonging to another subfamily). The diagnosis of Pionosyllis is emended, and five new genera are proposed: Synmerosyllis , Basidiosyllis , Westheidesyllis , Perkinsyllis and Brevicirrosyllis . Paraehlersia San Martín, 2003, proved to be closely related to Pionosyllis . Seven species are transferred to Opisthodonta Langerhans, 1879, here emended, and three transferred to Nudisyllis Knox & Cameron, 1970 (according to San Martín & Hutchings, 2006). Opisthodonta uraga (Imajima, 1966) comb. nov. and Perkinsyllis longisetosa comb. nov. are redescribed. Pionosyllis compacta Malmgren, 1867, P. stylifera Ehlers, 1913, P. gigantea Moore, 1908, P. enigmatica (Wesenberg-Lund, 1950), and Nudisyllis magnidens (Day, 1953) comb. nov., are redescribed. Pionosyllis marquesensis Monro, 1939 and P. procera Hartman, 1965 likely belong to the Syllinae, thus they are not treated in the taxonomic account.

    Abstract: Several new symbiotic associations involving Syllidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) are reported. The number of known host sponge species infested by Haplosyllis spongicola is updated to 36, with seven hosts being reported for the first time (i.e. Aplysina corrugata , Aplysina sp., Cliona sp., Cliona viridis , Phorbas tenacior , one sponge from Iran, one sponge from Cambodia). Two infestation patterns (a few worms per host cm 3 in temperate waters and 10s or 100s in tropical waters) are identified. The taxonomic and ecological characteristics of the species are discussed. Five associations occurring between four syllid worms and decapod crustaceans are fully reported for the first time. Syllis cf. armillaris , S.ferrani and S.pontxioi occurred inside gastropod shells occupied by hermit crabs as well as Pionosyllis magnifica , which was also found inside the branchial chambers of the giant crab Paralithodes camtschatica . The description of Pionosyllis magnifica is emended on the basis of the new specimens found, while some taxonomic remarks on Syllis cf. armillaris are given. In addition, further evidence of sexual ( P.magnifica ) and asexual ( S. cf. armillaris ) reproduction in symbiotic syllids is provided.
