The stump-tailed porcupine (Coendou rufescens) is a medium-sized species that inhabits subtropical, temperate and High-Andean forests of the northern Andes, at 800 to 3,650 m asl. The project is intended to characterize the richness, abundance and conservation status of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems of the province of El Oro in Ecuador. Ed. El PNS mantiene grandes cantidades de bosques, prístinos y numerosas zonas inexploradas debido a la, dificultad de acceso por la topografía del terreno, pro-, bablemente esas áreas estarían resguardando especies, aún desconocidas. Here we report the first albino record from the Neotropics for this group, a stumptailed porcupine (Coendou rufescens) in northern Ecuador. The highest concentration of diversity occurs between 1200 to 1600 meters of elevation, diminishing as the altitude increases. endstream endobj 7 0 obj<> endobj 8 0 obj<> endobj 9 0 obj<>/ColorSpace<>/ProcSet[/PDF/ImageC]/ExtGState<>>> endobj 10 0 obj[/ICCBased 12 0 R] endobj 11 0 obj<>stream "F$H:R��!z��F�Qd?r9�\A&�G���rQ��h������E��]�a�4z�Bg�����E#H �*B=��0H�I��p�p�0MxJ$�D1��D, V���ĭ����KĻ�Y�dE�"E��I2���E�B�G��t�4MzN�����r!YK� ���?%_&�#���(��0J:EAi��Q�(�()ӔWT6U@���P+���!�~��m���D�e�Դ�!��h�Ӧh/��']B/����ҏӿ�?a0n�hF!��X���8����܌k�c&5S�����6�l��Ia�2c�K�M�A�!�E�#��ƒ�d�V��(�k��e���l ����}�}�C�q�9 Sixty species were recorded in the study area and included 15 threatened species and four species endemic to Perú.

The stump-tailed porcupine (Coendou rufescens) is a medium-sized species that inhabits subtropical, temperate and High-Andean forests of the northern Andes, at 800 to 3,650 m asl. Preliminary report in Ecuadorian mammals. Se caracteriza por presentar bosques primarios, secundarios, intervenidos y pastizales dispersos. Ten species were trapped. do en el bosque montano y es una especie rara. The new species is only known from the southeastern portion of Sangay National Park in Ecuador and is therefore likely endemic to the Cordillera Oriental of Ecuador. �x������- �����[��� 0����}��y)7ta�����>j���T�7���@���tܛ�`q�2��ʀ��&���6�Z�L�Ą?�_��yxg)˔z���çL�U���*�u�Sk�Se�O4?׸�c����.� � �� R� ߁��-��2�5������ ��S�>ӣV����d�`r��n~��Y�&�+`��;�A4�� ���A9� =�-�t��l�`;��~p���� �Gp| ��[`L��`� "A�YA�+��Cb(��R�,� *�T�2B-� Sistemas Acuáticos (Peces); 3.

To document the presence of non-volant mammals we used capture techniques The present work documents the diversity of mammals in the headwaters of the Apurímac river, one of the most important information gaps in Peru, based on an evaluation of fi ve sampling areas in the departments of Apurímac (Cconoc, Velavelayoc), Ayacucho (Yanamonte, Ccentabamba) and Cuzco (Catarata).

Due to its rarity, aspects about its natural history, ecology and distribution patterns are not well known, therefore, research is needed to generate knowledge about this carnivore and a first step is studying suitable habitat areas. 0000000730 00000 n The diversity indices of Shannon-Wiener and Simpson for small mammals show a moderate and mild negative correlation with elevation, respectively. p.260-275. TIRIRA D. 2001. nov and P. saturtinoi sp. southern Ecuador: ecology and natural history. Museum. We performed Ecological Niche Models and applied future climate change scenarios (2.6 and 8.5 RCP) to determine the potential distribution of this mammal in Colombia and Ecuador, with current and future climate change conditions; furthermore, we analysed its distribution along several land covers. Llanganates National Park (LNP) was created in the Andes of Ecuador with the goal of protecting the biodiverse biota of the Napo and Pastaza river watersheds. El resultado de este p, Determinar la filogeografía y filogenia de los micromamíferos en el Ecuador y así determinar las unidades de conservación apropiadas para cada taxón o grupo objeto de estudio. We also provide natural history and reproductive observations, vocalization analysis, habitat preference, and phylogenetic placement of this species.
