Sixteen orchid species are first reported for the area of Quepos in addition to those recorded for Manuel Antonio National Park, Costa Rica. Generic descriptions are provided for the genera not previously recorded for the area, and each species is described and illustrated. Data on distribution and phenology are provided, together with keys to the genera including more than one species in the area. A new species, Epidendrum montis-narae Pupulin & L.Sánchez, is decribed and illustrated. Two previously recorded species, Epidendrum isomerum and Oncidium polycladium, are illistrated from material collected within the study area.

Una especie nueva y tres híbridos de helechos para la Isla del Coco (Costa Rica) son descritos e ilustrados aquí: Nephrolepis cocosensis A. Rojas, Cyathea × robusta A. Rojas, Elaphoglossum × intermedium A. Rojas y Tectaria × epilithica A. Rojas. La nueva especie difiere de Nephrolepis rivularis (Vahl) Mett. ex Krug por su hábitat terrestre, frondas más pequeñas, pinnas más pequeñas and estas perpendicular al raquis, pinnas marginalmente lobuladas a bilobuladas distalmente, escamas del raquis pardo pálido con el punto de inserción pardo oscuro, escamas de la lámina 0.2–0.4 mm en diámetro, algunas veces reducidas a puntos resinosos, soros submarginales, muchas veces en los lóbulos internos de cada segmento, indusios cordiformes and basalmente adheridos, estos pardo pálidos con el punto de inserción pardo oscuro. El primer híbrido es intermedio entre Cyathea alfonsiana L.D. Gómez y C. notabilis Domin, en tamaño del tronco, tamaño y forma de las escamas del rizoma y base del estípite, tamaño de las frondas, pares de venas por segmento and grado de división de estas and y tamaño de los parafisos, pero tiene frondas más grandes que ambos progenitores, por esta razón el nombre del epíteto. Elaphoglossum x intermedium es un híbrido entre E. alvaradoanum A. Rojas y E. crinitum (L.) Christ, el cual es caracterizado por escamas del estípite y lámina pardos, lámina con base cuneada and ápice obtuso, y venas parcial e irregularmente anastomosadas. Tectaria x epilithica tiene caracteres intermedios entre T. incisa Cav. y T. mexicana (Fée) C.V. Morton, y es fácil de reconocer porque tiene lámina 1-pinnado-pinnatífida y tamaño intermedio entre las escamas del rizoma.

A New Species

A new species of Muscarella from Costa Rica, is described and illustrated. Muscarella tapantiensis most resembles M. coeloglossa but differs in the longer pedicels (3-5 vs. 1-2 mm), the shorter (2.5-2.8 vs. 3.75 mm), connate (vs. free) lateral sepals, and the lip with triangular (vs. broadly rounded) lower lateral lobes. Muscarella xanthella also resembles M. tapantiensis; however, it differs in the successively flowered raceme with alternate pedicels, the deeply fimbriate petals and the thick, rounded lip with densely verrucose lateral lobes. We provide illustrations, etymology, notes on ecology, pictures of the plants and habitat, and a distribution map of the new species. We discuss the inclusion of this species in the genus Muscarella.

A new species of Gecarcinidae MacLeay, 1838, Johngarthia cocoensis n. sp. from Cocos Island (Costa Rica) is described and illustrated. The new species closely resembles J. malpilensis (Faxon, 1893), from which it can be separated by the inner apical lobes of the third maxilliped meri mostly separated from each other in resting position, palp of third maxilliped merus partly exposed and epistomial carapace tooth completely exposed.

A New Species

A new species of Iguanidae Liolaemini lizard from the San Guillermo National Park in western Argentina, is described. The new species is a member of the Liolaemus darwinii complex within the monophyletic boulengeri species group. It is distinguished by its small body size, relatively long tail, low number of scales around midbody, dorsal scales moderately keeled, precloacal pores only in male, bulged patch of enlarged scales on the proximal posterior surface of the thigh in both sexes, dorsal pattern lacking of light vertebral or dorsolateral stripes, antehumeral fold without black pigment in female but greyish in male, a prescapular dark dot dorsal to antehumeral fold in both sexes, and postscapular spot absent. The new species is terrestrial, living in habitats with gravel and sandy soil in an Andean Monte landscape with sparse vegetation, above 2270 meters of altitude.

A New Species

Abstract During a parasitological survey of fishes at Iguazu National Park, Argentina, specimens belonging to the allocreadiid genus Auriculostoma were collected from the intestine of Characidium heirmostigmata. The erection of the new species is based on a unique combination of morphological traits as well as on phylogenetic analysis. Auriculostoma guacurarii n. sp. resembles four congeneric species – Auriculostoma diagonale, Auriculostoma platense, Auriculostoma tica and Auriculostoma totonacapanensis – in having smooth and oblique testes, but can be distinguished by a combination of several morphological features, hosts association and geographic distribution. Morphologically, the new species can be distinguished from both A. diagonale and A. platense by the egg size (bigger in the first and smaller in the last); from A. tica by a shorter body length, the genital pore position and the extension of the caeca; and from A. totonacapanensis by the size of the oral and ventral sucker and the post-testicular space. Additionally, one specimen of Auriculostoma cf. stenopteri from the characid Charax stenopterus (Characiformes) from La Plata River, Argentina, was sampled and the partial 28S rRNA gene was sequenced. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that A. guacurarii n. sp. clustered with A. tica and these two as sister taxa to A. cf. stenopteri. The new species described herein is the tenth species in the genus and the first one parasitizing a member of the family Crenuchidae.
