Resumen
Here we provide a compilation of bat distribution records based on neontological and paleontological data, updating the known distribution in Matanzas province, the Isle of Pines, and Central Cuba. From 97 collecting localities in the Province of Matanzas, we report 27 taxa out of the 34 known from the Cuban archipelago; 21 of them are extant while the other six are extinct. Antrozous koopmani and Natalus primus are considered locally extinct in Matanzas, as in most of the archipelago today, but had a wider distribution in the past that lasted until very late in the Holocene. The extinct endemics, Artibeus anthonyi, and Phyllops vetus, are reported for the first time in the province, and the distribution records of Phyllops falcatus, Lasiurus pfeifferi, Lasiurus insularis, Chilonatalus macer, and Eumops ferox are updated and expanded. These records make Matanzas the second richest province in bat diversity of the Cuban archipelago and an area of considerable conservation potential.

Resumen
The True Tulip, Fasciolaria tulipa (Linnaeus, 1758), is a predator of marine gastropods and bivalves. In this work, the predation of Turbo castanea (Gmelin, 1791) by F. tulipa is recorded for the first time in Cuba. The record is photographed in the sub-littoral of Sardinero beach in Santiago de Cuba.

Resumen
A new species of the genus Epimeria is described based on material collected in the expedition of the R/V John Elliott Pillsbury to the deep waters of the Gulf of Panama. This new species could be distinguished of the others in the genus by the combination of several characters including: rostrum long, reaching the half of the second article of the antenna 1; eyes absent; coxopodite 4 with anteroventral margin almost straight down; coxopodite 5 with posteroventral corner elongated backwards, reaching the pleonite 2; pleonites 5?7 with dorsomedial acute teeth directed backwards; posterior margin of the telson, smooth. This is the first record of a member of the family Epimeriidae for the Gulf of Panama.

Resumen
The distribution of the isopods of the Puerto Morelos Reef National Park, Quintana, Roo (PNAPM), in the Mexican Caribbean Sea was studied. Six sampling sites of 1 to 20 m depth were established to collect isopods associated with macroalgae, seagrasses, sponges, gorgonians, coral reef, soft sediment, and wooden piles, manually and with SCUBA. 2841 isopods belonging to six suborders, four superfamilies, 18 families, 32 genera and 56 species were studied. Of the species, 17 species are new records for the PNAPM. The species Mesanthura hopkinsi and Cirolana albidoida, are new records for the Caribbean Sea, while 12 extended their geographical scope. The family with the greatest abundance was Janiridae with 788 (28.23 %), mainly represented by Carpias algicola with 763 (26.86 %). The collection site with the largest number of families (14) was Jardines. The families that showed greater wealth per substrate were: Joeropsididae, Janiridae and Sphaeromatidae. The Rodman site obtained the greatest abundance with 1080 organisms (38 %). The substrate with the greatest abundance was coral pieces with 1714 organisms equivalent to 61 %. A list of the identified taxa and a table with the distribution by substrate, locality and number of specimens of each species studied, are also presented.

Resumen
The Hispaniola endemic species Thaloe ennery Brescovit and Thaloe leboulet Brescovit & Oliveira, previously known from Haiti, are found for the first time in Dominican Republic. Eleven male specimens of T. ennery were located in seven new localities from the Southeast Dominican Provinces: Pedernales, Barahona, Peravia, La Romana and La Altagracia. Additionally, four males of T. leboulet were located in the Northwest Dominican province of Santiago Rodríguez. This extends its distribution from the previously known occurrences in Haiti. All specimens are deposited in the Arachnological Collection of the Museo Nacional de Historia Natural “Prof. Eugenio de Jesús Marcano”.

Resumen
A bibliographic compilation was made (up to August 2019), on cumacean species reported in Mexico Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. The total list includes 25 species, nine genera and five families. Cumaceans have been recorded in 4 of the 6 states whose coastline is on the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea. In Veracruz six species have been reported in seven locations; two species in Veracuz’s limits with Tabasco; in one location of Tabasco, one species; in three locations of Campeche, three species and eleven species in two locations of Quintana Roo. For more than 30 years, the collected organisms have not been determined to an specific level, this shows the necessity for more taxonomic work in this group.

Resumen
Partial leucism in one of three nestling of a brood of Yellow-faced Grassquit, Tiaris olivaceus (Linnaeus, 1766), is described. Young bird had a white-yellowish coloration in its primary wings feather, rectrix and crown. Rest of the body remained with its natural coloration. In the scientific literature, and major bird collections of Cuba, there are no previous records of leucism for the region. Also, there are no references from local residents and aviculturist to this untypical pattern before. We conclude that leucism is a very rare event inside T. olivaceus’ populations of the area.

Resumen
The freshwater fish, Puntigrus tetrazona (Bleeker, 1855) is reported for the first time in Dominican Republic, Hispaniola, in a tributary of the Haina river, San Cristóbal province. Several individuals were collected at different points along the tributary, however, organisms of this species were not found in the main course of the river. It is presumed that it was intentionally introduced and that it is a species with great invasive potential.

Resumen
A nesting colony of Tricolored Munia, Lonchura malacca (Linnaeus, 1766), is reported here, located in an agroecosystem of Mayabeque, Cuba. The nesting area was located in a sugarcane farm two kilometers east of the town of Quivicán. Nine nests were found, and one of them had eggs and hatchling; four nests had only fresh eggs. Here we characterize the nests and describe the contents.
