The distribution and ecology of protosteloid amoebae are still relatively unexplored, especially in the paleotropics, despite their role in understanding the evolutionary lineage of Eumycetozoans, more commonly known as slime molds. Hence, an occurrence survey was carried out for the first time in the coastal vegetation of San Fernando City, La Union, Philippines to generate a species listing of protosteloid amoebae. Herein, a total of 40 substrate samples, comprising 20 aerial litter (AL) and 20 ground litter (GL), were collected from four collection points along the coastline of the study site to prepare for their inoculation in weak malt yeast agar (wMYA) plates. The culture plates recovered 12 species belonging to nine genera, all of which are reported as new records of protosteloid amoebae for the Philippines. This is the first study to be ever conducted on the occurrence of protosteloid amoebae in Southeast Asia.

We report the first records of the sea anemones Anthopleura mariscali, Anthopleura nigrescens, and Exaiptasia diaphana in the Protected Natural Area of Los Cóbanos and Punta Amapala on the coast of El Salvador. Additionally, we extend the known range of distribution of Telmatactis panamensis to south-eastern El Salvador. Each of these species is briefly described, and images of live specimens are provided. The geographic distributions of previous records of sea anemones in El Salvador are discussed. An updated list of 11 species reported in the country is provided.

We report the rediscovery of two species of rare snake in Espírito Santo state, Brazil: Apostolepis longicaudata Gomes, 1921 (also rare elsewhere in Brazil) and Drymoluber brazili (Gomes, 1918). Apostolepis longicaudata has gone undetected in Espírito Santo for 66 years and Drymoluber brazili for 46 years. Espírito Santo state has only 10% of its forests remaining, and so the rediscovery of these forest‑dwelling species emphasizes the importance of small forest remnants for the conservation. These species have been assessed as Critically Endangered and Endangered in Espírito Santo state.

Myotis ciliolabrum (Merriam, 1886) is an insectivorous bat of the family Vespertilionidae and has a wide distribution from British Columbia, Alberta, and Saskatchewan in Canada, most of the western and central United States of America to central Mexico. In this study, we report one of the southernmost records from State of Mexico, based on two females collected in 1980 and stored in the Mammals Collection of the Universidad Autonóma Metropolitana. These records increases the knowledge on the distribution of this rare bat in Mexico.

We report the first record of Pontoporia blainvillei (Gervais & d’Orbigny, 1844), Franciscana or La Plata River Dolphin, along the coast of Arraial do Cabo, southeastern Brazil. On 8 October 2017, a newborn was stranded in the surf zone of Prainha Beach and was returned to the sea. Although an occasional record, fills a distribution gap of the species’ occurrence on the coast of Rio de Janeiro state and, consequently, helps clarify the distribution pattern of P. blainvillei along the coast of the Brazil.
我们报告了巴西东南部阿拉亚尔-多卡博(Arraial do Cabo)沿岸弗朗西斯卡或拉普拉塔河海豚 Pontoporia blainvillei (Gervais & d'Orbigny, 1844) 的首次记录。2017 年 10 月 8 日,一只新生海豚搁浅在 Prainha 海滩的冲浪区,后被放回大海。虽然这是一个偶然的记录,但填补了该物种在里约热内卢州海岸出现的分布空白,因此有助于澄清 P. blainvillei 在巴西海岸的分布模式。

Golfo Dulce is a fjord-like embayment on the southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica, which encompasses the marine protected area of Piedras Blancas National Park. The gulf is surrounded by mangroves, rocky shores, and sandy beaches that are home to migratory and resident bird species. Here, we provide a checklist of 73 marine birds, including records of six years of annual counts and incidental observations in Golfo Dulce. This paper represents an updated bird list, based on the 1998 Basic Information Units from Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad. We added 16 species to the list, showing the importance of maintaining a monitoring program of marine birds in the Golfo Dulce area. We have also demonstrated the valuable contributions of citizen science for obtaining scientific information.
杜尔塞湖(Golfo Dulce)是哥斯达黎加南太平洋沿岸的一个峡湾状海湾,包括皮德拉斯布兰卡斯国家公园(Piedras Blancas National Park)海洋保护区。海湾四周环绕着红树林、岩石海岸和沙滩,是候鸟和留鸟的栖息地。在此,我们提供了一份包含 73 种海洋鸟类的清单,其中包括杜尔塞湖六年来的年度计数和偶然观察记录。本文是根据 1998 年国家生物多样性研究所(Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad)的基本信息单位更新的鸟类清单。我们在名单中增加了 16 个物种,这表明了在杜尔塞湖地区继续开展海洋鸟类监测项目的重要性。我们还证明了公民科学对获取科学信息的宝贵贡献。

Several mammal inventories have been reported from the lowland Amazon of Madre de Dios, Peru, but few have been reported for the Las Piedras River. Here we present a list of mammal species from the Las Piedras River. Over a period of seven years (2013–2020), we recorded the presence of mammal species, excluding bats and small rodents, using camera traps and opportunistic sightings. Our study area was near the Huascar-Las Piedras River confluence, 58 km north of the Madre de Dios River and covering an area of 22,430 ha. We recorded 60 species belonging to seven orders, 26 families, and 53 genera, including novel records for the Las Piedras tributary. Notable records reported include Leopardus cf. tigrinus (Schreber, 1775), Galictis vittata (Schreber, 1776), Saguinus imperator subgrisecens (Lönnberg, 1940), Cebuella niveiventris (Lönnberg, 1940), Cyclopes thomasi (Linnaeus, 1758), Coendou ichillus Voss & da Silva, 2001, and Caluromys lanatus (Olfers, 1818).

The entomophthoralean fungus Zoophthora rhagonycharum (Bałazy) S. Keller, previously recorded in Europe from Poland and Switzerland, is now reported in North America from New York State, United States of America. On both continents, this obligate insect pathogen is known only from resting spores found within dead, adult native soldier beetles (Cantharidae) of the genus Rhagonycha Eschscholtz, 1830. Resting spores have undulating, light brown episporia. In New York, columnar rhizoids attach cadavers tightly to the undersides of leaves in the understory of hardwood forests in late June and early July.

Colloquially known as Soybean Stem Fly, Melanagromyza sojae (Zehntner, 1901) (Diptera, Agromyzidae) is an oligophagous pest of plants in the family Fabaceae, including Uruguay’s biggest commodity crop, Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.). To our knowledge, this is the first scientific record of M. sojae in Uruguay, and we confirm its identity through using DNA barcoding. Characteristic damage to host plants and immature stages of M. sojae were confirmed in Dolores and Colonia, Uruguay.
Melanagromyza sojae(Zehntner,1901 年)(双翅目,农蝇科)俗称大豆茎蝇(Soybean Stem Fly),是一种低食性害虫,主要危害豆科植物,包括乌拉圭最大的商品作物大豆(Glycine max (L.) Merr.)。据我们所知,这是 M. sojae 在乌拉圭的首次科学记录,我们通过 DNA 条形码确认了它的身份。在乌拉圭的多洛雷斯(Dolores)和科洛尼亚(Colonia),我们确认了 M. sojae 对寄主植物和未成熟阶段的破坏特征。
