This research applies artificial intelligence algorithms for optimizing the water quality monitoring network in a representative basin with intensive agricultural and livestock activities. This study used the water quality database provided by the National Water Commission (CONAGUA). Bi-monthly monitoring was registered from 2013 to 2020 for 23 water quality parameters in 23 sampling locations in tributaries and the mainstream river. Therefore, it was necessary to apply principal component analysis to reduce the dimensionality of the data and thus identify the parameters that contribute most to the variation in the water quality. This artificial intelligence algorithm promoted the ease of clustering sampling sites with similar water quality characteristics by reducing the number of variables involved in the database. The reduction highlighted nutrients (TN and TP), parameters related to dissolved organic matter (NH3-N and TOC), and pathogens such as fecal coliforms. The similarity of sampling sites was determined through hierarchical clustering using the Euclidean distance as a measure of dissimilarity and the Ward method as a grouping method. As a result, nine clusters were obtained for the rainy and dry seasons, reducing approximately 50% of the sampling sites and generating an optimized network of 11 sampling sites.

Type material. Holotype male from MEXICO, MICHOACÁN: Hwy MX37, 98 km S Nueva Italia, 13.VII.2006, F.W. Skillman and D.C. Hildebrandt leg. (FSCA, formerly FWSC). Etymology. The specific epithet “ wappesi ” is in honor to the late James Wappes, who sent a great number of specimens used in this study. Remarks. According to Toledo’s key to species (2005), Psyrassa wappesi new species, could follow both options of couplet “18”, since the genal length is between the two lengths mentioned: equal or smaller than 1⁄5; or about 2/3. If the first option is followed, P. wappesi new species could be included in the alternative of couplet “19” and compared to P. ebenina Linsley, 1935 (see photograph on Bezark 2022); P. wappesi new species differs from this species especially by the slender body (stouter in P. ebenina), elytral punctures and setae sparser (denser in P. ebenina), and absence of abundant decumbent elytral setae (present in P. ebenina). If the second option of the alternative of couplet “18” was followed, the new species can be compared to P. oaxacae Toledo, 2002, from which it differs noticeable by the slender body (stouter in P. oaxacae), and prothorax without distinct basal constriction (present in P. oaxacae). Psyrassa wappesi new species also resembles P. nigroaenea Bates, 1892 (see photograph of the holotype on Bezark 2022; Fig. 65–67), but differs by the sparser elytral punctures (denser in P. nigroaenea), and only the antennomere III distinctly carinate dorsally (antennomeres III–VII dorsally carinate in P. nigroaenea). As we already discussed, there is variation in the shape of the apex of the spine of antennomere III. If it was considered as not acute, P. wappesi new species could be included in the alternative of couplet “15” from Toledo (2005), and compared to P. cylindricollis Linsley, 1935, and P. brevicornis Linsley, 1934. It differs from both especially by the scape not contrasting in color with the basal flagellomeres (distinctly contrasting in P. cylindricollis (e.g. Fig. 30) and P. brevicornis)., Published as part of García, Kimberly & Santos-Silva, Antonio, 2022, The multiform genus Psyrassa Pascoe (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Elaphidiini): new species, new records, synonyms and transfers, pp. 1-26 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (953) on pages 6-8, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7398949, {"references":["Bezark LG. 2022.

Type material. Holotype male from MEXICO, JALISCO: MX80, 7 km N Autlán on road to Microondas de San Francisco, 19.VII.2006, Skillman and Hildebrandt leg. (FSCA, formerly FWSC). Paratype female, same data as holotype, except 27.VII.2011, Skillman and Turnbow leg. (FWSC). Etymology. The specific epithet comes from the Latin “obscurus” (dark) + “venter” (belly), referring to the dark abdominal ventrites of the species, which contrasts with the rest of the integument coloration. Remarks. Psyrassa obscuriventris new species can be included in the alternative of couplet “15” from Toledo (2005), with P. brevicornis and P. cylindricollis. It differs from P. brevicornis (see photograph on Bezark 2022) by the antennae surpassing the elytral apex in females (not reaching in females of P. brevicornis), and body distinctly slender (stouter in females of P. brevicornis). The new species differs from P. cylindricollis (Fig. 19–57) by the elytra four times the prothoracic length or slightly longer (at most, 3.5 times in P. cylindricollis), pronotal sculpturing denser (Fig. 74, 82) (sparser in P. cylindricollis (e.g. Fig. 19, 26, 29, 30)), and sculpturing on sides of the prothorax distinctly denser (Fig. 78) (sparser in P. cylindricollis (Fig. 32)). The general appearance resembles that of P. basicornis Pascoe, 1866 (see photographs on Bezark 2022), but differs by the spine of the antennomere III distinctly blunt apically (acute in P. basicornis), and elytra at least four times longer than prothorax (at most slightly longer than three times in P. basicornis)., Published as part of García, Kimberly & Santos-Silva, Antonio, 2022, The multiform genus Psyrassa Pascoe (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Elaphidiini): new species, new records, synonyms and transfers, pp. 1-26 in Insecta Mundi 2022 (953) on pages 10-11, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7398949, {"references":["Toledo VH. 2005.

New synonym. Remarks. Psyrassa sinaloae Linsley, 1935 and Aneflomorpha martini Chemsak and Linsley, 1968 (see photographs on Bezark 2022) were described from Sinaloa (Mexico). Comparing photographs of the holotypes as well as original descriptions and redescription of the former, we conclude that they are the same species. Therefore, they are synonymized herein. The differences between Psyrassa Pascoe, 1866 and Aneflomorpha Casey, 1912 are questionable. Linsley (1961) separated these two genera in his key as follows: “Pronotum polished, glabrous, sparsely punctate,” leading to Psyrassa; “Pronotum densely punctate or pubescent, or punctate with smooth spaces or polished dorsal callosities,” leading to Aneflomorpha. However, the sculpturing of the pronotum in Psyrassa is very variable, and may be identical to that in species of Aneflomorpha, sometimes with distinct smooth area; the pubescence on the pronotum may or may not be present in Psyrassa, although when present, always sparse or restricted to the posterior region. According to Lingafelter (1998): “ Aneflomorpha strongly resembles Psyrassa; indeed, the two genera share many characters … Both of these genera are speciose and probably are polyphyletic; each containing some taxa that should belong in the other … The lack of a strong pronotal constriction, more heavily punctate and pubescent pronotum, general openness of the procoxal cavities posteriorly, and longer third antennomere in Aneflomorpha distinguish it from Psyrassa ”. We agree that these two genera appear to be polyphyletic and that there are species of Psyrassa in Aneflomorpha as well as vice versa. However, the shape of the procoxal cavities posteriorly and the length of the antennomere III cannot be used to separate them. This is because these features are very variable in Psyrassa. Furthermore, the prothorax may or may not be strongly constricted in Psyrassa. For now, the only reliable difference between Psyrassa and Aneflomorpha is decumbent pubescence on the pronotum and elytra, sparser or absent in the former, abundant in the latter (Fig. 8, 12). Based on the pronotal and elytral pubescence in Psyrassa sinaloae, it is transferred to Aneflomorpha. Currently, it is known from Mexico (Sinaloa, Morelos, Michoacán, Jalisco) (Monné 2022; Tavakilian and Chevillotte 2021). Material examined.

Psyrassa cylindricollis Linsley, 1935 (Fig. 19–57) Psyrassa cylindricollis Linsley 1935a: 144; Franz 1954: 219 (distr.); Chemsak et al. 1988: 292 (distr.); Chemsak et al. 1992: 46 (checklist); Monné 1993: 11 (cat.); Monné and Giesbert 1994: 60 (checklist); Chemsak and Noguera 1995: 59 (distr.); Noguera and Chemsak 1996: 399 (checklist); Monné 2005: 240 (cat.); Toledo 2005: 27; Monné and Hovore 2006: 72 (checklist); Monné 2022: 422 (cat.). Remarks. Linsley (1935a) described P. cylindricollis based on a pair from Mexico (Sinaloa). Franz (1954) recorded this species from El Salvador; Chemsak et al. (1988) recorded the Mexican state of Jalisco; and Toledo (2005) included the Mexican states of Colima and Sonora. Although Toledo (2005) included Franz (1954) in the P. cylindricollis references, he only listed the species from Mexico. We examined 11 specimens from the Mexican states of Michoacán and Jalisco. At first glance, there are apparently at least two species in this batch of specimens. However, a further examination revealed that they belong to a single, variable species. Specimens at the extremes appear to be distinctly different, but there are specimens linking these extremes. Notwithstanding, the general appearance, shape of the prothorax (not length), color of the antennae, head, prothorax, and legs (varying only in tone), sculpturing of the prothorax, gulamentum, elytra, and ventral surface of the thorax, are very constant. Consequently, the only possible conclusion is that there is dramatic intraspecific variation. The most remarkable variations observed were: 1. Proportion between length of prothorax and elytra: elytra from 3.30 to 3.85 times prothoracic length (e.g. Fig. 19, 45); 2. Length of the spine of the antennomere III (e.g. Fig. 19, 23, 28, 33, 40, 46–57): from about as long as pedicel to slightly longer than twice pedicel length; 3. Apex of the spine of the antennomere III: from acute to distinctly blunt (e.g. Fig. 46–57); 4. Spine on the apex of the antennomere IV from 0.37 to 0.75 times pedicel length; 5. Antennomere V with spicule on the apex or with spine 0.5 times pedicel length; 6. Antennomere VI without spine or spicule or with spicule (e.g. Fig. 28); 7. Antennae in male from distinctly long, surpassing elytral apex about middle of antennomere IX, to shorter, surpassing elytral apex about base of antennomere XI; 8. Antennae in female from not reaching elytral apex to surpassing elytral apex; 9. Head, scape, and prothorax from light reddish-brown to dark reddish-brown (sometimes yellowish-brown); 10. Femora from orangish brown to dark reddish-brown; 11. Elytra from bluish-black to reddish-brown (often, with both colors irregularly distributed); 12. Metaventrite and abdominal ventrites from reddish-brown to blackish; 13. Sutural projection of the elytral apex from blunt to acute. Material examined.

monitoreo ,flora ,inventario ,ambiente ,fauna - Abstract
El principal objetivo del presente trabajo de investigación propone una guía sencilla para la generación de inventarios, monitoreos e identificaciones taxonómicas de las especies. Se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica de las diferentes metodologías para la elaboración de inventarios divididos por taxones de los recursos biológicos de flora y fauna. En primer lugar, se tienen los inventarios de flora, en los cuales se menciona el nombre del método, la unidad de muestreo, diseño, tiempo, personal requerido y finalmente el tipo de análisis al que debe someterse cada uno de ellos; además, para la programación y ejecución de monitoreos de este recurso se considera el monitoreo de la vegetación dentro de una parcela permanente como método más efectivo. Por otro lado, para la generación de inventariosdel recurso fauna se muestran diferentes metodologías divididas en taxones, cabe destacar que se realizó la descripción de los métodos tanto para captura y rastreo de especies de aves, mamíferos, reptiles, anfibios y peces; de este último se encuentra por separado la metodología para el muestreo de Macroinvertebrados Acuáticos MIA. Finalmente, se concluye que los inventarios y monitoreos de flora y fauna permiten gestionaradecuadamente la conservación, el manejo y la implementación de programas para la protección de las especies y su dinámica con los elementos que los rodean. Se espera que esta guía sea utilizada por estudiantes y docentes como una herramienta de campo.

Type material. Holotype male from PANAMA, Chiriquí: vic. Chiriquicito, 17.V.1996, Wappes, Huether & Morris leg. (FSCA, formerly ACMT). Etymology. The specific epithet “ soniae ” is in honor to our friend, and mentor of the first author, Sonia Aparecida Casari, in recognition of her contributions to the knowledge of Coleoptera, especially on Elateridae and larvae. Remarks. According to Martins (1965, 1970a, 2009), the upper eye lobes in Neocompsa Martins, 1965 have three rows of ommatidia. However, in N. soniae sp. nov., as well as in some other species of Neocompsa, the upper eye lobes have four rows of ommatidia in the innermost area. Neocompsa soniae sp. nov. is similar to N. aspasia Martins, 1974 in its general appearance, but differs as follows: upper eye lobes with four rows of ommatidia; antennomeres VII–XI unicolorous; pronotum not abundantly pubescent; and posterior yellow macula on the elytra triangular-shaped. In N. aspasia, the upper eye lobes have three rows of ommatidia, antennomeres VII–XI are bicolorous, pronotum has abundant pubescence not obscuring integument, and the posterior yellow macula on the elytra is longitudinally elongated. The new species can be included in the alternative of couplet “13” from Martins (1970a) (translated, modified): 13(12). Pronotum not pubescent close to posterior margin.

Compsibidion vandenberghei Heffern, Santos-Silva & Nascimento, 2018 (Figs 30–35) Compsibidion vandenberghei Heffern, Santos-Silva & Nascimento, 2018: 526. Compsibidion vandenberghei was described based on two females from Nicaragua (Nueva Segovia) (Heffern et al. 2018). We examined another female from Guatemala (Fig. 30), and in comparison with the type material (holotype illustrated in Figs 31, 33 and 35), the female examined has the body slightly wider, scape shorter and stouter (Fig. 32), flagellomeres slightly thicker, femora slightly thicker, yellowish lateral macula on the anterior third of the elytron closed adjacent to the epipleura (it is open in the holotype), black anterior elytral macula closer to the black transverse band (Fig. 30), transverse black macula on posterior half of the elytron arched upward close to suture (Fig. 30), and procoxal cavities slightly open behind (it is closed in the holotype). However, these types of variations also occur in other species of Compsibidion, as for example, in C. vanum (Thomson, 1867). Additionally, the upper eye lobes (Fig. 34) in the female from Guatemala have three rows of ommatidia, while in the holotype they have four rows (Fig. 35). However, in the female paratype, the left upper eye lobe has four rows of ommatidia, with a single ommatidium in the fourth row, and the right upper eye lobe has three rows of ommatidia. Material examined. GUATEMALA (new country record), Zacapa: Quarry rd to San Lorenzo, Sierra las Minas, 15.043871, -89.668775, 555 m, 1 female, 29-31.V.2019, Skillman, Wappes & Monzón leg. (FWSC).

Type material. Holotype male from GUATEMALA, Zacapa: El Arenal, Heloderma Conservation Reserve, 14º18’N, 89º78’W, 530 m, collected at MV/UV lights, 23-15.V.2019, Wappes, Monzón & Skillman leg. (FSCA, formerly ACMT). Paratypes — GUATEMALA, Zacapa: 1 male, same data as holotype (FSCA, formerly ACMT); 1 male, 1 female, same data as holotype, except Skillman, Wappes & Monzón leg. (FWSC); Quarry Rd to San Lorenzo, Sierra Las Minas, 15º04’N, 89º67’W, 555 m, MV/UV lights, 1 male, 26.V.2019, Wappes, Monzón & Skillman leg. (MZSP, formerly ACMT); 500-600 m, MV/UV lights, 1 female, 26.V.2019, Wappes, Monzón & Skillman leg. (MZSP, formerly ACMT). Etymology. The specific epithet “ wappesi ” is in honor to the late James Wappes, in recognition of his contributions to the knowledge of Cerambycidae. Remarks. Depending on the feature and/or the interpretation of the features, the new species can be included in Compsibidion (Neoibidionina), Corimbion, Pygmodeon or Heterachthes (Compsina). Only a complete review of these genera may present reliable features to separate them or, eventually, to propose synonymies. This is because the features used to separate them are too variable in the genera studied: basal antennomeres carinate or not (Compsibidion and Heterachthes), central tubercle of the prothorax elevated or not (variable in Heterocompsa and Corimbion) procoxal cavities closed or slightly open behind (at least variable in Corimbion, Compsibidion and Pygmodeon), tibiae with or without carina (at least variable in Compsibidion and Heterachthes), presence of pubescent band on sides of the prothorax (at least variable in Compsibidion and Heterachthes), etc. For now, we think better to include the new species in Corimbion. By the elytral pattern, the new species cannot be confused with any species currently included in Corimbion. This is because there are no other species with only a transverse yellowish band about middle, and no other macula anterior and/or posterior to it., Published as part of García, Kimberly & Santos-Silva, Antonio, 2022, New species and new records in Neoibidionini and Hexoplonini (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Cerambycinae), pp. 399-414 in Zootaxa 5134 (3) on pages 401-404, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5134.3.4, http://zenodo.org/record/6538351

Paratype female, same data as holotype (RFMC). Etymology. Latin “pilosus”, meaning hairy, referring to the abundant setae on the antennae, elytra, and legs. Remarks. Neocompsa pilosa sp. nov. differs from N. aspasia Martins, 1974 as follows: antennomeres unicolorous; pronotum with dense pubescent band laterally; elytra with one longitudinal yellowish-white band; elytra with dense pubescence on posterior half; elytral apex obliquely truncate with outer angle projected. In N. aspasia, the antennomeres V–XI are bicolorous; pronotal pubescence is sparse laterally, elytra with two longitudinal yellowish bands, sparse pubescence on posterior half, and rounded apex. The new species is also similar to N. albopilosa (Martins, 1962), N. tucumana (Martins, 1962), N. serrana (Martins, 1962), N. vogti Martins, 1970, and N. lineolata (Bates, 1870), especially by having a single longitudinal yellowish band on each elytron, but it differs by the pronotum with dense lateral pubescence (absent in these species). Also, it differs from N. serrana and N. vogti by having dense pubescence only on apical half of the elytra (elytral pubescence is present throughout in N. serrana and N. vogti). Lastly, the new species is similar to N. santarensis Martins & Galileo, 1998 by having sparse pubescence only on the posterior half of the elytra; however, it differs from N. santarensis by having a single longitudinal band on each elytron (N. santarensis has two bands, one of them elliptical). In the key to species of Neocompsa from Martins (2009), the new species can be included in the alternative of couplet “10,” modified: 10(9).

Type material. Holotype female from BOLIVIA, La Paz: Sur Yungas, Carmen Pampa, 5500’, black light trap, 11.XI.1976, L. Janicki leg. (FSCA, formerly RFMC). Etymology. The specific epithet “ boliviensis ” comes from the country Bolivia, where the holotype was collected. Remarks. Heterachthes boliviensis sp. nov. is similar to H. concretus Martins, 1970 (see photographs on Bezark 2022), but differs as follows: upper eye lobes with less than four rows of ommatidia; anterior half of the elytra mostly light yellowish brown; posterior quarter of the elytra entirely light yellowish brown. In H. concretus, the upper eye lobes have four rows of ommatidia; anterior half of the elytra has a yellowish-brown macula near middle; and the posterior third of the elytra has a wide yellowish-brown macula with brown area close to its posterior margin, and the elytral apex is yellowish. The new species is also similar to H. pallidipennis (Thomson, 1865) by having less than four rows of ommatidia. However, it differs by the basal antennomeres not carinate, elytral apex truncate, and elytral surface with four to five rows of piliferous punctures. In H. pallidipennis, the basal antennomeres are carinate, elytral apex is rounded, and the elytral surface has two rows of piliferous punctures. Heterachthes boliviensis sp. nov. can be included in the alternative of couplet “11” from Martins (2009) (translated; modified): 11(8).

Gnomidolon incisum Napp & Martins, 1985 (Figs 1–5) Gnomidolon incisum Napp & Martins, 1985: 127; Joly, 1991: 24; Monné, 1993: 13 (cat.); Monné & Giesbert, 1994: 67 (checklist); Monné, 2005: 310 (cat.); Martins, 2006: 147; Monné & Hovore, 2006: 86 (checklist); Monné, 2022: 492 (cat.). Gnomidolon incisum is known only from its type-locality in Venezuela (Napp & Martins 1985). We examined a female specimen from Trinidad and Tobago (Fig. 1). This specimen differs from the type material (paratype illustrated in Fig. 2) by the scape orangish (dark reddish brown in the holotype and paratype), and elytra without dark band projected toward anterior third along suture (present in the holotype and paratype). As there are no morphological structures differentiating the specimens, we concluded these are just chromatic variations. The length of the inner spine of the left metafemur is considerably different in the specimen from Trinidad and Tobago (Fig. 3); however, it varies within the same specimen and, in fact, the length of the inner spine of the right metafemur (Fig. 4) agrees well with that in the paratype of G. incisum (Fig. 5). Therefore, this characteristic is variable intraspecifically. Material examined.
