First inventory of vertebrates in the private natural reserve El Morejon, Campana, Buenos Aires province

Abstract

Las áreas naturales protegidas (AnPs) son esenciales para la conservación de la biodiversidad. Están destinadas a mantener ecosistemas naturales operativos, actuar como refugios para las especies y mantener procesos ecológicos in-capaces de sobrevivir en los entornos terrestres y marítimos con un mayor nivel de intervención (dudley, 2008). El conocimiento de las especies presentes (o ausentes) en un AnP brinda información indispensable para valorarla correctamente. Los inventarios son necesarios para obtener infor

Biodiversity of vertebrates in Argentina: patterns of richness, endemism and conservation status

“…Conservation aspects have been incorporated considering all currently available works, which have variously conducted evaluations at the national, regional or local level ( Chebez 1994 ; Bello and Ubeda 1998 ; Orlandini et al 2001 ; López et al 2003 ; Cordiviola and Zayas 2007 ; Cappato and Yanosky 2009 ; Chebez et al 2009 ; Cordiviola et al 2009 ; Alonso et al 2018 ; Cardoso et al 2019 ). When a species was placed in different conservation categories according to the various information sources consulted, we kept the highest degree of threat, as a precautionary principle ( Bauni et al 2021 ). Some exceptions were made for very restricted regional or local evaluations of some species where the highest category did not accurately represent the national scenario for the species.…”

“…The complete list of all vertebrates was published as a book and is freely accessible at the following web: https://www.fundacionazara.org.ar/img/libros/inventario-biologico-argentino.pdf ( Bauni et al 2021 ). For each province, species richness and percentage of representativeness were calculated for each taxonomic group, distinguishing between native, exotic, endemic, and threatened taxa.…”

Do People Care about the Origin of Wildlife? The Role of Social Stereotypes on Public Preference for Exotic Animals

“…Native species are those belonging to Argentinean fauna [ 33 ]. We used Darwin’s [ 34 ] definition of domestic animals, i.e., species that are the result of artificial selection processes.…”

Trichuris dolichotis Morini, Boero & Rodriguez, 1955 (Nematoda: Trichuridae) en Dolichotis patagonum (Zimmermann, 1780) (Rodentia: Caviidae) del centro para la conservación de fauna silvestre, San Juan, Argentina

“…La mara presenta una restringida distribución geográfica en Argentina convirtiéndola en una especie vulnerable (Villafañe et al, 2005;Chebez & Nigro, 2008;SAyDS-SAREM, 2019). Actualmente con presencia en las provincias de Buenos Aires, Catamarca, Córdoba, Chubut, La Pampa, La Rioja, Mendoza, Neuquén, Río Negro, San Juan, San Luis, Santa Cruz y Santiago del Estero (Bauni et al, 2021). Es una especie diurna con picos de actividad por la mañana y tarde, en invierno se la puede ver activa sólo al mediodía mientras que en verano está activa de noche.…”
