We present new records of larvae and adult fish from the family Callionymidae in the Colombian Pacific coast. Larvae and juvenile of Synchiropus atrilabiatus (Garman 1899), expands its distribution range within this coast (between Tumaco in the South to the border with Panama in the North), presenting low to medium abundances in September-October 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and February-March 2006, 2014. Larvae were always collected at stations 54 km away from the coast. Adults of S. atrilabiatus were collected as bycatch from the deep-sea shrimp fishing fleet between 67-700 m depth at Bahía Cupica in 1995 and Arusí in 2005.

Fifteen species of echinoderms (5 asteroids, 5 echinoids and 5 ophiuroids) are reported for Natural National Park Ensenada deUtria in the Pacific coast of Chocó, Colombia. For each species, we report its size and ecological observations. Two species, Mithrodia bradleyi and Encope ecuadorensis are new records for the Colombian Pacific coast and are described shortly., Most of the echinoderms found were associated to rocky shores, coral reef and sometimes sandy shores, except Ophiothríx spicuiata and Ophiactis savignyi, which were found living in association with the gorgonia Lophogorgia alba. Hesperocidaris asteriscus and Centrostephanus coronatus live in holes in coral or rock. These are mainly intertidal or shallow subtidal species.

The increasing demands for physical space towards diverse maritime activities call for coherent planning and scientific knowledge to support the management of the marine the environment. Using secondary multi-scale geographic information gathered from national institutions, expert judgment and a multi-criteria analysis integrated with GIS tools, we aimed to identify potential synergies and conflicts between human activities occurring in the jurisdiction of the master harbor of Buenaventura in the Valle del Cauca department (CP01) in the Colombian Pacific coast. We identified 105 overlaps in which 5.04% were categorized with high CNI (Conflict Normalized Index), while 13 interactions were evaluated with the highest conflict value, representing 14 sectors/groups. Additionally, 12.97% of the overlaps were categorized with a medium number of overlaps (4-6 overlays use), specifically distributed inside the Buenaventura Bay. Conservation uses (Protected Areas – SINAP in Colombia) was consistent within all 13 incompatibilities and conflicts distribution along the study area was not homogenous. The methodological approach used in this study can be used to identify conflicts and synergies in human uses and activities in the marine and coastal environment through the implementation of a methodology adapted to the context of the area. It presents a technical contribution to future processes of Marine/Maritime Spatial Planning and the Integrated Management of the Coastal Zone of Colombia.

We report new records of the western rounded ear bat Lophostoma occidentalis for the Colombian territory, represented by ten specimens collected on the western portion of the country, in the departments of Cauca, Chocó, and Valle del Cauca, all in the Colombian Pacific Region. The new records of L. occidentalis represent a substantial geographic and ecological extension in the known distribution of this species and corroborate its occurrence in Colombia. In addition, we discuss on the morphological variation of representatives of large Lophostoma species in Colombia.

Abstract Two rare species of psychrolutid fish (Psychrolutidae) were found in the Sea of Okhotsk. Psychrolutes dolganovi was found at a depth of 142 m near Urup Island (southern Kuril Islands); earlier the species was known only from the holotype collected off the Pacific coast of Iturup Island. This species is recorded in the Sea of Okhotsk for the first time. P. pustulosus was collected at depths of 205–400 m along central part of Kuril Islands and in the northwestern part of the Sea of Okhotsk at depths of 240–294 m. A key to the species of the genus Psychrolutes inhabiting the northern Pacific Ocean is presented.

Several species of the infaunal alpheid genera Leptalpheus Williams, 1965 and Fenneralpheus Felder & Manning, 1986 are described as new or reported from new localities in the tropical western Atlantic and eastern Pacific. In the genus Leptalpheus, five species are described as new: L. marginalis sp. nov. from the Caribbean coast of Colombia; L. penicillatus sp. nov. from the Pacific coast of Panama and Costa Rica; L. azuero sp. nov., L. hendrickxi sp. nov., and L. bicristatus sp. nov., all three from the Pacific coast of Panama. In addition, L. cf. forceps Williams, 1965 and L. felderi Anker, Vera Caripe & Lira, 2006 are reported for the first time from the Caribbean coast of Panama. Several unidentified species of Leptalpheus presently known from incomplete or immature specimens are also reported. In the genus Fenneralpheus, F. orabovis sp. nov. is described as new, whereas F. chacei Felder & Manning, 1986 is reported from the Caribbean coast of Panama, representing the first finding of this species outside its type locality in Florida. The generic diagnoses of both Leptalpheus and Fenneralpheus are emended to accommodate the new species.

A checklist of mollusks reported in Bahía Málaga (Valle del Cauca, Colombia) was developed through recent samplings in the zone (2004–2012), together with bibliographic and museums’ collections reviews. Species’ distributions in Bahía Málaga were established through 18 different sub­regions, which included the inner, middle and outer zones of the bay. A revision of the western American distribution for the species was also carried out. A total of 426 species were found, of which 44 were new reports for the Colombian Pacific coast. Results supported the high marine biodiversity that has been reported for this region.

A New Species

The family Chrysopetalidae has been poorly studied from the Pacific coast of Mexico compared to other families. Specifically from the southern Mexican Pacific, only two species of the family have been recorded in previous studies, Chrysopetalum occidentale and Paleanotus chrysolepis. In this study 311 specimens were revised, and nine species, belonging to six genera were found. Eight of these species are new records from the southern Mexican Pacific coast: Arichlidon watsonae n. sp., Bhawania cf. goodei, Chrysopetalum elegantoides, C. maculata, Hyalopale sp., Paleaequor psamathe, Paleanotus bellis and P. purpurea. A new species is also described, Arichlidon watsonae n. sp., which is characterized by the curved tips blades of the falcigers and their small and ovoid palps. Additionally, the genera Arichlidon and Hyalopale are recorded by first time from the Tropical Eastern Pacific.

There is extensive research of the Ephemeroptera communities taxonomy and ecology in the Andean region of Colombia. However, other regions such as the Orinoquia have been insufficiently studied. From this region, in the Meta department, four species have been registered: Varipes lasiobrachius Lugo-Ortiz & McCafferty, Coryphorus aquilus Peters, Miroculis (Atroari) colombiensis Savage & Peters and Tricorythopsis rondoniensis (Dias, Cruz & Ferreira). The main objective of this study is to report for the first time for this region the species: Mayobaetis ellenae (Mayo), Hydrosmylodon primanus (Eaton), Haplohyphes baritu Domínguez, Camelobaetidus edmundsi Dominique, Mathuriau & Thomas and Nanomis galera Lugo-Ortiz & McCafferty.
