To improve analysis of the current Eastern Pacific Green (EPG) turtle population status, a spatial assessment is needed on their presence and frequency in their frequented habitats. This study aims to develop a framework from which a baseline study could be undertaken focused on EPG turtles surrounding the waters of Parque Nacional Zona Marina from the Archipiélago Espíritu Santo. Two years of data and a research survey focused on Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK) from ecotourism guides operating out of La Paz, BCS, México were used. Due to the University of California’s Institutional Review Board’s (IRB) protocol and small sample size of survey participants, survey data may not be used to extrapolate to the population of ecotourism operators in La Paz. Although past studies have integrated LEK from fishers, this is the first study to introduce LEK from the ecotourism sector to inform EPG turtle conservation efforts in México. The results from this project will contribute to a better understanding and further insight of how this species utilizes this area.

This study apports new information on the diversity of amphibians and reptiles in a freshwater wetland of Tabasco. From January to December 2014, monthly samplings were conducted in the Chaschoc lagoon wetlands to establish a checklist of amphibians and reptiles for this site and to detect potential threats to their conservation. Diurnal and nocturnal surveys were conducted in terrestrial habitats, while surveys were conducted in water bodies for turtles and crocodiles. Fifty-five species were detected (12 amphibians, and 43 reptiles), representing 32.4% of the species recorded for Tabasco. Species accumulation models resulted in percentages of inventory completeness above 92 %. Most of the species do not appear in IUCN Red List of threatened species, appendices of CITES, or the list of threatened species of the Official Mexican Norm NOM-59-SEMARNAT-2010. Main threats detected for the herpetofauna were cattle ranching, illegal hunting and collecting, destruction, fragmentation and pollution of the habitat, and intentional fires. We also detected three non-native invasive species of reptiles.

The Savanna racer snake Erythrolamprus aenigma is found in northern Brazil, Guyana and Venezuela. Here I present the first records of this species in eastern Colombia, extending the known distribution more than 1000 km east of its nearest range.

In this work, the first case of melanism in Crotalus intermedius gloydi was recorded in the Sierra de Miahuatlán, Oaxaca. This species is endemic to Mexico and is distributed in the center and south of the country; therefore, having this genetic condition suggests positive advantages that can be obtained by some groups of ectothermic vertebrates such as reptiles. 

The The investigation that has been carried out is a basic study, whose main objective has been to determine the existing relationship between internal marketing and the organizational commitment of the workers of the Cooperativa de Servicios Múltiples el TUMI Sucursal Trujillo.This is a study with a descriptive, correlational, quantitative, non-experimental and cross-sectional scope. To collect data, two instruments were developed: a structured questionnaire that measures the internal marketing variable, and the checklist that examines the organizational commitment variable. Both were applied to a sample made up of 80 workers from the TUMI Multiple Services Cooperative This instrument was subjected to a validation and reliability process, which was carried out by experts in the specialty. After reviewing the tests applied and submitting the data to analysis, the results obtained made it possible to show that there is a significant link between internal marketing and the organizational commitment in the Cooperativa de Servicios Múltiples el TUMI - Trujillo 2021, so if strategies are proposed to improve internal marketing in workers, this will make them get involved and identify with the institution, achieving a high organizational Each commitment.

The primary activity of the State is public administration, a fact through which it legally, systematically, transparently, technically, and permanently executes administrative acts, which must be planned, controlled, evaluated, and above all, in accordance with the law in order to to provide the constituents with high-quality goods and services for the collective well-being; In this, the investigation "LEGAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPLICATIONS IN THE EXECUTION OF ADMINISTRATIVE ACTS IN THE GADs OF GUAMOTE AND RIOBAMBA DURING THE HEALTH EMERGENCY", has the purpose of determining the legality of the administrative acts executed during the health emergency and indicating their legal bases and administrative. The population involved is made up of: Judges of Constitutional Guarantees; Lawyers specialized in administrative law and officials of the Autonomous Municipal Governments; The results of the investigation indicate that during the health emergency as a result of Covid 19, several fraudulent administrative acts were committed in the municipal GADS, which is why it is concluded by pointing out that in Ecuador we are currently only experiencing a wave of corruption and violence, but legal insecurity that undermines the Constitutional State of Rights and Justice; to peaceful and harmonious coexistence; and, to the good living of Ecuadorians.

The objective of this was to apply strategies to address the low levels of text comprehension in students of the Multigrade Educational Institution No. 22343 of Longar-District of San Juan Bautista-Ica, 2017.

In Latin America, a large part of its population is made up of indigenous peoples and ethnic groups, which is why several countries in the region have called themselves plurinational and pluricultural, this form of government seeks the active participation of its citizens for the election of their representatives, their political and social organization, for which it must guarantee adequate mechanisms of democracy to ensure the inclusion of its participants. Community democracy is presented as the exercise of self-government that expresses the form of political participation of the communities, the same that has the purpose of recognition and valuation of cultural traditions, the struggle for dignity, respect and equality. The objective of the manuscript is to determine if the public policies established by the Ecuadorian State allow the preservation and strengthening of community democracy in Ecuador; to achieve this purpose, a comparative legal analysis of community democracy and the public policies that have been implemented to strengthen it is carried out. The results indicate that public policies implemented in a correct manner would allow preserving and strengthening community democracy in Ecuador, as long as the mechanisms are applied in an organized manner and effectively disseminated to all citizens. Furthermore, this type of democracy can also be implemented in community, neighborhood, local, urban and rural spaces in order to comply with the principle of inclusion and equitable participation.
