Geographic Coverage

The study area covers approximately 5,243 km², corresponding to five sampling transects conducted in the yungas of Cochabamba (Bolivia). These transects span from the southeast of Carrasco National Park (PNC) (S 17.7, W 64.64) to the northwest of Chapare (S 16.80, W 66.28). Three transects are within the jurisdiction of the PNC protected area (Pojo, Totora, and Villa Tunari areas munipility), one along the main Cochabamba-Santa Cruz highway (Sindicato Paracti), and the last transect within the "Municipal Flora and Fauna Reserve of North Tiquipaya" (RMFFNT).

Project Data

Se muestra los patrones de distribución de mariposas de las subtribus Euptychiina y Pronophilina (Nymphalidae: Satyrinae: Satyrini), en los bosques nublados tropicales de Cochabamba (Yunga). El análisis se realizó en base al gradiente desde los 700 a 3700 m de altura, se generó 1147 registros de mariposas de la tribu Satyrini. Los resultados muestran en función a la riqueza de especies que la subtribu Pronophilina presenta la mayor riqueza (109 especies) y 55 especies de Euptychiina. Ademas, la mayor riqueza de especies de Satyrini (1 800 m) presentan un patrón de distribución en forma de joroba (hump-shaped), e independientemente cada sub tribu presenta este similar patrón pero a diferente altura: Euptychiina (1 500 m) y Pronophilina (2 250 m). Y los análisis de regresión prueban que la elevación y precipitación tienen un efecto significativo sobre la distribución en forma de joroba en Satyrini. Este tipo de análisis son la clave para identificar áreas importantes de conservación en montañas, y nos proporciona criterios básicos e información sobre cuales con las causas de concentración de especies a determinadas alturas.
