Abstract:

Three new species of Neotropical Lecythidaceae are formally described: Scottmoria albomarginata from western Ecuador, S. decurrens from northwestern Ecuador to western Colombia, and S. spiralocucullata from western Amazonia in eastern Ecuador to the westernmost state of Acre in Brazil. The new species are illustrated and the relationships with related species are discussed.

Furipterus horrens is a rare Neotropical bat that is infrequently recorded during field expeditions across its geographic distribution. Herein, we report a new geographic record of F. horrens from western Ecuador, updating its known geographic distribution within Ecuador and the Neotropics. Between 2018 to 2020, an inventory of the mammal collection at Museo de la Escuela Politécnica Nacional (MEPN) led to the discovery of an unusual geographic record from the western slopes of the Ecuadorian Andes. The new geographic record for Ecuador corresponds to the voucher specimen MEPN 9603 ♀ collected

Abstract:

Simira colorata from western Ecuador is described and illustrated. It is distinguished from other species of Simira by having rather small, glabrous leaves, with blades acute or obtuse at base, small non-calycophyllous, 4-merous flowers in rather large, pyramidal inflorescences, and small fruits. In vegetative features it resembles the Amazonian S. rubescens, which differs from S. colorata in its reproductive features. Although new to science, S. colorata, has been known and widely used in the Ecuadorian coast since the 18th century, and is nowadays endangered due to habitat loss.

The western-most distributional occurrence of P. pallidoptera is documented. Additionally, we describe a new record of P. leucoptera collected at Palma Roja, Cuyabeno Faunistic Reserve in Sucumbíos Province, Ecuador that represents the first record for this species in Sucumbíos Province and the northern-most distributional occurrence for Ecuador.

Abstract:

<em>Sturnira koopmanhilli</em> (McCarthy, Albuja & Alberico, 2006) is a rare and vulnerable bat species dis‑ tributed mainly in the Chocó biogeographic region of Ecuador and Colombia. A field expedition in north‑western Ecuador collected two new voucher specimens and tissues. We sequenced the whole <em>cyt-b</em> gene to confirm the taxonomic identity of these specimens. Furthermore, we reviewed three natural history collections to find unreported specimens. The present study provides seven new records for <em>S. koopmanhilli</em> in Ecuador and expands this species&rsqu

The three new species are facultative epiphytes with dorsiventral shoots and are readily recognized by bright red tips on the abaxial and adaxial leaf surfaces. The species described here are vegetatively sim

Abstract:

Describing bird diversity patterns in complex biogeographic regions such as the Andes Mountains is crucial for understanding their biogeography and evolution. In Northern Ecuador lies the province of Carchi, geographically located in the inter-Andean valley, over the Pasto massif, where the western and eastern Ecuadorian branches diverge southward. Western Carchi, settled on the western Andean Cordillera, exhibits a wide altitudinal gradient and vegetation turnover from lowlands to high Andes. Although the area is part of the Chocó bioregion, a global biodiversity and endemism hotspot, knowled

Also, six new combinations are formally presented, which were transferred from Eschweilera to Scottmoria: Scottmoria beebei (Pittier ex S.A. Mori) Prance, S. bogotensis (R.

Abstract:

SummaryThe avifauna of the environs of North-western Peru Biosphere Reserve (NPBR) is herein catalogued. This reserve embraces the largest example of protected Neotropical Pacific xeric forests, a habitat complex much scarcer than rainforests. NPBR is very important conservationally because much of the adjoining dry-forest region of south-western Ecuador has been denuded. Exact locality records and their specific literature sources are furnished for North American migrants and those species which have inhabited the vicinity of NPBR but have not been reported there by the authors of reference b

Abstract:

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The importance of bat pollination has been demonstrated for many plant species. Yet this mutualism has rarely been studied on a community-wide level. In this paper we present results of a yearlong study of a bat-flower community in cloud forests on the western slopes of the Ecuadoran Andes. Of eight plant-visiting bat species caught, only Anouru cuudiferu and A. geofiqi were carrying pollen. These species of Anouru supplement their diets with insects. Unlike glossophagines in other environments, however, which switch completely to a frugivorou
