The genus Quetzalcoatlia was recently segregated from the paraphyletic Graptopetalum and consists of six species, confined to western Mexico, in states Jalisco, Michoacán Colima (Vázquez-García et al. 2023). alpha-taxonomy (Crassulaceae, Saxifragales) has been summarized below, which includes addition four new species: Q. grulloensis santanamichelii state itzicuaroensis latipetala Michoacán. One species is endemic (Q. glassii); five are Jalisco grulloensis, rosanevadoensis, superba,...
A new species, Echeveria machucae (ser. Nudae, Crassulaceae), is described from specimens collected in El Jacal, Atenguillo municipality, Jalisco. It a putative close relative of E. flammigera, which it differs by having larger stems, leaves, racemose to occasionally thyrsiform inflorescences, longer pedicels, presence yellow corollas, and wider nectary scales. also compared with multicaulis, pringlei, longisepala, the latter raised here at species level based on morphological evidence....
Two new species are described and illustrated. Echeveria cuevasii shares with E. flammigera typical characteristics of the Nudae series, for instance, a subshruby habit, medium-sized rosettes short sub spicate inflorescences. However, it differs from latter by having fewer shorter branches, longer leaves, more flowers per inflorescence, bracts; stamens petals bright yellow margins. vazquezii is similar to marianae novogaliciana large glabrous rosettes, caudex, paniculate inflorescence...
E. sotoi (ser. Gibbiflorae, Crassulaceae) is described as a new species endemic to the coast of Michoacán, Mexico. It morphologically similar gibbiflora, from which it differs by having generally taller but much thinner stem, narrower and oblanceolate oblanceolate-obovate leaves without purplish-glaucous colourations, peduncles, horizontally spreading obliquely ascending cincinni, flowers with frequently longer corollas usually shorter sepals, nectary scales. The was assessed Critically...
The Mesoamerican Slider Trachemys venusta ocurr from several Central American countries to Mexico. first case of hypomelanism in a captive-born specimen is formally reported. In this chromatic aberration or pigmentary anomaly resulting genetic factors, the dark tones specimen’s body with carapace length 77 mm and undetermined sex, were observed pale (discolored), except for eyes which retained normal coloration, patterns lines ocelli yellow green also persisted. Additionally, plastron...
Agave mayo (sect. Littaea, Asparagaceae), a new species endemic to the Sierra de Barobampo, Sinaloa, Mexico, is described. This shares morphological characteristics with A. schidigera, from which it distinguished by its often falcate leaves leaves, inclined inflorescence, larger reddish flowers, tubes, tepal lobes, filaments inserted in middle of tube, longer ovaries, and obpyriform fruits. A distribution map biogeographic provinces provided place an ecological evolutionary context.
Graptopetalum trujilloi (subg. Glassia, Crassulaceae), a new haplostemonous species from San Gabriel municipality, Jalisco, Mexico is described and illustrated. Its morphologically closest G. rosanevadoense. It differs the latter in having smaller habit, more numerous primary branches per inflorescence, larger mean flower density 10 cm of scape, fewer flowers basal branch, diameter, petals greenish with transversal inconspicuous red stripes, narrower petals, filaments to distally reddish...
A new haplostemonous species of Graptopetalum (subg. Glassia, Crassulaceae) from the Sierra de Coalcomán, Michoacán, is described and illustrated. It differs its morphologically closest species, G. pentandrum, by having a smaller rosette diameter, broadly oblong leaves, basal inflorescence branch with fewer flowers than in rest branches, flower wider petals, petal color pattern. was assessed as Critically Endangered (CR) following IUCN criteria. key to Glassia) provided.
A revision of Echeveria pringlei var. parva was made based on morphological and biogeographical comparisons. The results show that this taxon should be raised to the species level it belongs E. ser. Nudae. Since epithet is unavailable for use due existence parva, flammigera proposed as a new replacement name. An updated description provided, well distribution map.
Las anomalías o malformaciones en reptiles pueden ser causadas por desnutrición, incubación defectuosa, contaminación ambiental genes mutados. En esta nota reportamos tres casos de morfológicas dos neonatos y un mortinato tortuga jicotea orejas rojas Trachemys scripta elegans cautiverio. Observamos hendidura bilateral la mandíbula superior, paladar hendido gemelos onfalópagos (heterópagos) los neonatos, así como deródimo bicéfalo. Hasta donde sabemos, representa el primer registro...
We describe and illustrate Agave infiernilloensis, a new species of the section Choritepalae (Agavoideae, Asparagaceae). It is morphologically similar to A. gypsicola from which it differs by having larger rosettes leaves, shorter terminal spine, recurving inflorescence, more flowers per node, as well longer flowers, ovary, filaments. assessed Endangered (EN) according IUCN criteria. provide distribution map key choritepalous Agave.
Nota de distribución: primer registro la tortuga casquito Vallarta, Kinosternon vogti, en Nayarit.
