Different sources of information indicate the possible presence of Teratohyla midas (Lynch & Duellman, 1973) in Bolivia; however, none of them confirm this scenario. Here we confirm the presence of T. midas in the northern Bolivian Amazon (Pando Department) and extend the geographical distribution of the species to include Bolivia. Likewise, we contribute information on some aspects of this species’ behavior and natural history.
不同的信息来源表明，玻利维亚可能存在Teratohyla midas（Lynch & Duellman，1973年）；但是，没有一个信息来源证实了这一情况。在这里，我们证实了 T. midas 在玻利维亚亚马逊河北部（潘多省）的存在，并将该物种的地理分布范围扩大到玻利维亚。同样，我们也为该物种的行为和自然史提供了一些信息。

Recent floristic surveys conducted in various regions of Morocco have revealed three new records of non-native vascular plants of the genus Solanum, namely, S. abutiloides Bitter & Lillo, S. bonariense L., and S. nitidibaccatum Bitter. The occurrence of these alien species in Morocco is documented here for the first time. For each species, information on its national habitat and distribution are given. More-over, the distinguishing morphological features of these three species are compared with the most similar species (including Moroccan Solanum species).
最近在摩洛哥不同地区进行的植物学调查发现了三种茄属非本地维管植物的新记录，即 S. abutiloides Bitter & Lillo、S. bonariense L. 和 S. nitidibaccatum Bitter。本文首次记录了这些外来物种在摩洛哥的出现情况。对于每个物种，都给出了其国内栖息地和分布的信息。此外，还将这三个物种的形态特征与最相似的物种（包括摩洛哥茄科植物）进行了比较。

Melothria L. (Cucurbitaceae) is a Neotropical genus of wild cucumber comprising 12 species. The only species that occurs in Malesia is M. pendula L., which has been recorded in Peninsular Malaysia, Borneo, mainland Sumatra, the Philippines, Sulawesi, and Bali. During our botanical excursions in Bangka and West Java from 2020 to 2022, we discovered naturalized populations of M. pendula. Our findings reveal that M. pendula has an extensive distribution in Sumatra and is a newly recorded wild cucumber in Java. We present a morphological description, photographs, and a brief discussion.

Daboia mauritanica (Gray, 1849), Moorish Viper, is native to North Africa. We update the distribution map for this species in Algeria, providing 19 new locality records, filling distribution gaps and significantly expanding the species’ known range. Our updated distribution map reveals a widespread presence of the species in northern Algeria, extending south into the northern Sahara. We note that some historical records in certain provinces remain unconfirmed and/or questionable, indicating the need for further investigation. Our findings underscore the importance of collaboration between researchers and citizen scientists in Algeria.

We present novel distributional information on the little-known snake species Dryophylax chaquensis (Bergna & Álvarez, 1993) in Bolivia, including the first record from Cochabamba Department. Our record extends the distribution of this species towards the Bolivian Inter-Andean Dry Forests by approximately 63 km to the west (in a straight line) from the nearest known locality in Vallegrande, Santa Cruz, Bolivia. We comment on the biogeographic distribution, altitude of occurrence, and aspects behavior and natural history of D. chaquensis in Bolivia.

Saddle Barb, Barbodes sellifer, is a freshwater fish endemic to Malay Peninsula and the Indonesian archipelago and is here recorded for the first time from Belitung Island, Indonesia. This is a range extension of about 300 km to the southeast from the closest previously known locality on Bangka Island, and, in addition to reporting its occurrence on another island of the Indonesian archipelago, this is the southernmost known locality for the species. We also provide an updated map showing the species’ distribution.

Presbytis chrysomelas cruciger (Thomas, 1892) is a Critically Endangered langur subspecies that has rarely been studied due to the difficulty of encountering it in the wild. Previously, this subspecies was sighted in Maludam National Park, Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo. Here, we provide the first sighting record of P. c. cruciger in Jemoreng Protected Forest in Sarawak, where a total of eight groups were observed. We urge for further comprehensive studies and immediate conservation action.
Presbytis chrysomelas cruciger（Thomas，1892 年）是一种极度濒危的叶猴亚种，由于在野外很难见到，因此很少有人对其进行研究。以前，我们曾在马来西亚婆罗洲沙捞越的马鲁丹国家公园发现过该亚种。在这里，我们提供了在沙捞越州杰莫伦保护林首次发现 P. c. cruciger 的记录，共观察到 8 个群。我们敦促进一步开展全面研究，并立即采取保护措施。

Of the few endemic vertebrates found in Paraguay, Homonota rupicola Cacciali, Ávila & Bauer, 2007 is considered micro-endemic, globally threatened, absent in conservation units, and restricted to rocky outcrops in a small mountain range, a priority hotspot, known as Cordillera de los Altos. Through sampling efforts in areas surrounding the type locality, we recorded H. rupicola at other sites. Together the current geographic range of this species is approximately 13 km along a segment of the Cordillera de los Altos. Nonetheless, H. rupicola is currently unknown from any protected areas, and non-governmental organizations are working towards establishing conservation units within the geographic range of the species.
在巴拉圭发现的为数不多的特有脊椎动物中，Homonota rupicola Cacciali, Ávila & Bauer, 2007 被认为是微小特有种，在全球范围内受到威胁，在保护单位中不存在，并且仅限于被称为 Cordillera de los Altos（科迪勒拉德洛斯阿尔托斯山脉）的小山脉中的岩石露头。通过在模式产地周围地区的取样工作，我们在其他地点也记录到了 H. rupicola。加在一起，该物种目前的地理分布范围约为科迪勒拉-德洛斯阿尔托斯山脉一段的 13 公里。尽管如此，H. rupicola 目前仍未出现在任何保护区内，非政府组织正致力于在该物种的地理分布范围内建立保护区。

Based on fieldwork for licensing environmental impact studies in Bahia, northeastern Brazil, we present new records of five tree species, including two species known only from their type locality. The records mostly originate from highly human-modified areas in Atlantic Forest, which we argue that should not be underestimated by environmental licensing studies. We assess the conservation status of the five species and highlight the importance of using trained botanists for recording species of conservation concern. Our data demonstrate that studies for environmental licensing can contribute knowledge and aid in biodiversity conservation.
