Monteleón es considerado un relicto de bosque subandino, y su biodiversidad está amenazada por distintos factores antropogénicos, lo que causa fragmentación la pérdida del hábitat las especies allí habitan. Con el objetivo conocer actual composición, estructura diversidad florística, se establecieron tres parcelas 0.1 ha en zonas con grados perturbación. En total registraron 941 individuos 116 especies, donde parcela perturbación baja presentó mayor alfa. Según análisis beta, entre...
Abstract The Magdalena Valley along the eastern slopes of Central Andes in Colombia is characterized by both high biodiversity and endemism human infrastructure development.

A new species of Anthurium sect. Calomystrium from Colombia is described and illustrated. It distributed in the east Caldas department, forests surrounding Florencia (Samaná), elevation between 1300–1700 m clearings forest edges. The compared with most closely related taxa (A. mariae y A. palacioanum) comments about its geographical distribution, phenology conservation status (Data Deficient) were made.
Las epífitas son un componente importante en los bosques tropicales, donde, debido a la disminución de sus poblaciones naturales, algunas familias vasculares (Orchidaceae y Bromeliaceae) general todas las no presentan veda Colombia. Ahora, como estrategia para mitigar pérdida biodiversidad, se ha implementado su rescate reubicación medida manejo ambiental. En este trabajo métodos utilizados durante actividades rescate, monitoreo región del Guavio (Cundinamarca, Colombia), realizadas...
