Análisis mastofaunístico de la Zona Sujeta a Conservación Ecológica, Laguna Bélgica, Chiapas, México

Abstract

DERIVED FROM THREE FIELD TRIPS AND THE ANALYSIS OF THE INFORMATION OF FOUR SCIENTIFIC COLLECTIONS, I PRESENT THE LIST OF MAMMAL SPECIES FROM "ZONA SUJETA A CONSERVACIÓN ECOLÓGICA LAGUNA BÉLGICA" (A NATURAL PROTECTED AREA), LOCATED IN OCOZOCOAUTLA, CHIAPAS. AN ANALYSIS OF SIMILARITY WAS CONDUCTED, CONSIDERING FOUR NATURAL PROTECTED AREAS IN CHIAPAS (PARQUE NACIONAL CAÑÓN DEL SUMIDERO, RESERVA DE LA BIOSFERA MONTES AZULES, RESERVA DE LA BIOSFERA SELVA EL OCOTE AND RESERVA DE LA BIOSFERA EL TRIUNFO) AND ONE WITHOUT PROTECTION (COAPILLA). THE MAMMALS RECORDED REPRESENT SEVEN ORDERS, 18 FAMILIES, 44 GENERA AND 56 SPECIES. NINE SPECIES ARE UNDER SOME CATEGORY OF PROTECTION (CALUROMYS DERBIANUS, MICRONYCTERIS BRACHYOTIS, TRACHOPS CIRRHOSUS, LONCHORINA AURITA, MIMON BENETTII, BASSARISCUS SUMICHRASTI, COENDOU MEXICANUS, TAMANDUA MEXICANA Y LEOPARDUS PARDALIS) IN AGREEMENT WITH MEXICAN REGULATION (NOM-059-ECOL-2001). THE VALUES OF FAUNISTIC SIMILARITY OF THE COMPARED LOCALITIES WERE ABOVE 71%. EL OCOTE AND LAGUNA BÉLGICA WERE MOST SIMILAR (92.9%).
