The regulation of administrative transparency, already with Law 19/2013, of December 9, on transparency, access to public information and good governance, regional regulations or sectoral legislation such as law 27006, of July 18, by which regulates the rights of access to information, public participation and access to justice in environmental matters, imposes obligations of active publicity in environmental matters. This information is also found in public records or administrative files and is generated in the preparation of plans, studies, reports, administrative authorizations with a significant effect on the environment. But also in the active advertising derived from public sector contracting, in the non-financial information of companies, all of which in turn represents a huge accumulation of data that has (or can) have intrinsic value, but that is also an instrument for better environmental protection. This work only aims to identify some of these sources of obtaining information, in relation to access to environmental information, highlighting that it is made up of the set of documents or contents, whatever their format or support, that are in power of any of the subjects to whom these transparency obligations apply, whether it has been developed or acquired in the exercise of their functions. Information from which data of high environmental value is obtained or generated, all of which has a clear vocation to protect the environment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The odonates community from Cuetzalan and surroundings was studied through direct collections of adults in the years 2007 and 2009. Seventy-two species included in 37 genera and 11 families of the suborders Zygoptera and Anisoptera, were found, of which 19 species are new records for Puebla State. The collections efficiency was evaluated with three non-parametric estimators, reaching percentages of 82-98%. Phylogenetic diversity was calculated and compared to other two areas with cloud forest cover in the Northern Mountain Range in Puebla state and Hidalgo state, resulting more diverse that of Cuetzalan. An illustrated key to adult odonate species is provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Introduction: This work aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of the film analysis of A Message to America, the first video of beheadings of ISIS, as a media literacy tool to reduce the anxiety, and the emotional and cognitive impact (unconscious and conscious reactions) that these videos of real violence provoke in young people. Methodology: For this, 80 volunteers were recruited from first-year communication students at the UPV/EHU and divided into two homogeneous groups of 40. Group A watched an educational video about the film analysis of A Message to America, group B did not. Later, all the participants watched another video of the ISIS’ decapitations, and their viewing was monitored to record their state of anxiety before and after the experiment (using the STAI/E questionnaire), and their physiological (HRV and EDA) and cognitive responses (using an ad hoc questionnaire). Discussion and results: The results show that exposure to the film analysis of A Message to America does not attenuate the anxiety or emotional impact that these videos of executions produce in students, but it does reduce their cognitive impact and improve their understanding and interpretation, while empirically testing the correspondence between the audiovisual resources of the video and the physiological reactions of the viewer. Conclusions: The experiment confirms the suitability of film analysis to educate the eye in the contemporary audiovisual context. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Insects of the family Neriidae deposited in the Insect Collection of "El Colegio de la Frontera Sur" (Tapachula, México) were revised. Taxonomic revision of 322 specimens provided distributional information about four genera and six species for the state of Chiapas (México). Glyphidops flavifrons (Bigot), Nerius pilifer Fabricius, Nerius plurivittatus Bigot and Odontoloxozus longicornis (Coquillet) are new state records, while Cerantichir enderleini Henning and Glyphidops filosus (Fabricius) are recorded for the first time in Mexico. In order to evaluate species delimitation in Neriidae, 14 landmarks of wing of G. filosus and G. flavifrons were analized with geometric morphometrics. We found significant differences in wing size and wing shape, with evidence of alometric effect. The results suggest that wing morphometrics is a suitable tool in the discrimination of neriid species. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Diversity of beetles collected with flight interception traps at Parque Estatal Bosque de Arce, Talpa de Allende, Jalisco, Mexico was studied. Sampling was done during dry and wet seasons. In total, 3,857 individuals of 29 families, 214 morphospecies, and 73 genera were collected. Two sites, one with great diversity in the spring and the other with greatest diversity in winter, were sampled. Most abundance and species richness at both sites were in summer. Complementarity values near 1 and low similarity of the beetle assemblage between seasons and sites, described different composition between sites and increased diversity at the landscape level in the forest. Four beetle species and two new genera records were recorded for the State of Jalisco. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We present the first phase of the classification and inventory of two document collections of sherry firms. In the first place, that of the collection of the firm Cuvillo & Co., whose documentation extends from the beginning of the 20th century to the 1990s, donated by the owners to the Municipal Archives in 1994. At present, it has only been possible to complete the document classification phase and a rough inventory with a simple classification table that shows us the 12 large sections in which we have inserted the documentation, since the time we had for carrying out this work was scarce. A second phase will allow us in the future to create various subsections and documentary series in the said initial classification table and also to properly arrange all this rich collection, of which we are now only making a brief presentation. In addition, we present the inventory of the small document collection of the firm Morgan Brothers, whose documentation covers from 1847 to 1921 and which entered the Municipal Archives in 2006.

Nina S. de Friedemann (1930-1998) was a public anthropologist. She practiced engaged research, with a view to promoting social justice for the communities with whom she collaborated and studied, and she anticipated the public anthropology of the North Atlantic academia by five decades. Nina S. de Friedemann was a pioneer in Afro-Colombian studies and in visual anthropology. Her professional emphasis was on documenting and defending the cultural contributions of black populations to the identity of an ethnically diverse Colombia. The work of this pioneer was fundamental and inspired leaders of the black communities in their demands that culminated in Law 70 of 1993, also known as the ley de negritudes. Her research materials are housed at the Luis Ángel Arango Library under the name Fondo Nina S. de Friedemann, a repository now cataloged and available for study. In the context of the fund’s launch, Greta Friedemann-Sánchez reflected on her mother’s legacy as a publicly engaged scholar. She reviewed unpublished materials, correspondence, publications, and photographs by Nina S. de Friedemann. This article reviews three pillars of Friedemann’s ethical legacy: the recording and documentation of research and public advocacy data, the historical and public record of the application of research to the direct benefit of people’s needs, and the repatriation of research results in a variety of registers to disseminate results to a broad range of audiences in an attempt to change cultural norms and promote public policies for social justice. These pillars are reviewed within the contemporary normative framework for the protection of human subjects and the historical context during which she worked as an anthropologist.

The known distribution of the Pileated Flycatcher (Xenotriccus mexicanus) is restricted to western Mexico, from central Michoacán to the west of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, encompassing an altitudinal range from 900 to 2000 masl. We report two individuals of the species in a site of tropical deciduous forest in the Nahua community of Zacualpan, Colima. This is the first record for the state and the western-most published record for the species. Moreover, we made our observation at ~200 m below the minimum altitudinal reported for this flycatcher. The presence of X. mexicanus in the vicinity of the Sierra de Manantlán Biosphere Reserve provides an opportunity to increase its refuge within a natural protected area. This also enhances the biological and ornithological relevance of the reserve, the communal territory, and the state of Colima. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The information available on the geographical distribution of bats of Pteronotus (Phyllodia) (Chiroptera: Mormoopidae) in Venezuela is updated, as a result of the taxonomic analysis of museum specimens and the diagnosis of acoustic records. Prior to this work, three species of the subgenus were known in the Venezuelan territory: Pteronotus (Phyllodia) paraguanensis, endemic to the Paraguaná Peninsula; P. (Phyllodia) fuscus, with a wide distribution that covers the northern region (except Paraguaná), as well as the northern portion of the Amazon and the Guiana Shield; and P. (Phyllodia) rubiginosus, restricted to the south of the Orinoco River. A fourth species, P. (Phyllodia) alitonus, is included in the country for the first time, based on records obtained in the states of Amazonas and Bolívar. The morphological characters that allow identification of the species of Pteronotus (Phyllodia) that occur in Venezuela, as well as their echolocation patterns, are presented. The discovery of P. (P.) alitonus increases the number of known mammals in Venezuela to 405 (173 belonging to Chiroptera) and extends the distribution range of the species approximately 700 km northwest of the closest previously reported locality.

The article discuss the social conditions of composition of public archives kept by Brazilian public universities, based on the concept of information regime, which is useful to reflect on the custody documentary and the construction of memory. It discusses the impact of the public policies of a conservative government whose actions and programs harm the culture, diversity and memory of social sectors and marginalized groups characterized by authoritarianism and a conservative ideology.

The list of species of fungus beetle families Endomychidae, Anamorphidae and Eupsilobiidae (Endomychidae sensu lato) in Mexico is updated. Fifty three species and two subspecies of Endomychidae, nine of Anamorphidae and two of Eupsilobiidae are reported. Bystus is the most diverse genus in Anamorphidae (4 spp.); Stenotarsus (23 spp.) is the most diverse genus in Endomychidae followed by Epipocus (21 spp.). Veracruz is the Mexican state with the highest diversity for the three families (31 spp. Endomychidae, 5 spp. Anamorphidae and 1 sp. Eupsilobiidae), followed by Chiapas (17 spp. Endomychidae), Oaxaca (15 spp. Endomychidae) and Jalisco (13 spp. Endomychidae). Additionally, first records for Mexican states and countries of the Neotropical region are provided. Stenotarsus lemniscatus Gorham is recorded from Belize, S. mexicanus Arriaga-Varela et al. from Belize, Epipocus alvaradi Strohecker from El Salvador, E. manni Strocheker from Honduras, E. punctatus LeConte from Nicaragua, Anidrytus compactus Strohecker from Ecuador and A. helvolus Gerstaecker from Argentina.

Introduction: Chamela bay is located in the central portion of the coast from the Jalisco state, Mexico and is an important protected natural area. Despite this, the study of echinoderms in the area is incipient. Objective: To provide an updated checklist, descriptions of the species and a taxonomic key of the ophiuroids from Chamela bay. Methods: We collected specimens from 1998 to 2018, and also analyzed information from the literature and specimens deposited at international scientific collections from Chamela bay. Results: 19 species of ophiuroids are reported for the study area, distributed in two orders, seven families, and 11 genera. Seven of these correspond to new records for the area, one to a new record for Jalisco state, and two possibly represent new species. The biodiversity of ophiuroids in Chamela bay represents 15.2 % of ophiuroid species from the Mexican Pacific and 73 % from Jalisco. The number of known echinoderms in Chamela bay is increased to 48 species. Conclusions: The most complete checklist of the class Ophiuroidea in Chamela bay, Jalisco, is presented. The information provided can be used for other areas of the eastern Pacific. Chamela bay is important in terms of species richness due to its environmental heterogeneity and numerous islands.

Suicide is a global health problem, with suicidal behavior being one of the predictors of suicide mortality; however, its assessment is still complex. Although the amount of literature that has addressed different perspectives of suicidal behavior is abundant, it is necessary to deepen new methods that allow a rapid and objective assessment of it, providing clinicians and patients with an evaluation system that allows changes in emotional state to be recorded dynamically. The aim of this manuscript was to provide an overview of morphological patterns of auditory evoked potential P300 latency late in the assessment of suicidal behavior. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a discussion about the participation of the reading and writing processes in the university environment. I work from a theoretical approach that assumes the practices of literacy in a sociocultural key, in articulation with a bakthinian dialogic epistemology. The research context consists of two workshops for reading and writing analysis in higher education from a specific content approach. Those workshops, offered at a public university, are aimed at teachers belonging to the different areas of knowledge of that institution. From three "metaevents" occurred in these workshops, reviewed from a "pedagogy of multiliteracies" (KALANTZIS and COPE, 2005), arise questions that in my opinion should be considered when proposing didactic actions that involve reading and writing in different disciplinary fields.

The scorpion or broken chest turtle, Kinosternon scorpioides scorpioides, is widely distributed in Venezuela. However, there are regions with few records of its presence and States where the species has not been reported yet. The present findings of this continental tortoise in the hydrographic basin of the Manzanares River, extend its range of distribution for the country and Sucre state, where there was only one documented report. The specimens were collected in 4 communities of this State; nevertheless, persons settled on the banks of this river have reported the sighting and captures in 10 additional localities (not yet confirmed), all of them composed of diverse marshy, riparian ecosystems. In view of this, there is a need for a more rigorous assessment of the geographical distribution of this continental quelonium to support its conservation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article invites us to reflect on the public faith in registration and the property rights in the case of real estate fraud (falsification of documents or identities theft). In our country, there are two positions that seem to be irreconcilable: On the one hand, those who defend the public faith in registration above the property rights; on the other hand, those who defend the property rights above the public faith in registration. It is important to assume one of the two positions in this confrontation, because only from the academic discussion will be possible to find an effective solution to this problem.

This author proposes that the rules that currently regulate the "active transparency" -enforce by Chilean "Access to Public Information Law", also known as "Transparency Law" – may improve by incorporating aspects of record management, as well as e-government. It attempts to diagnose existing gaps and propose actions for the integration of these processes. It recommends applying the newly developed principles of open data -defined in the context of open government- to this particular aspect of transparency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article discusses the political aspects and consequences of the Colombian Civil War of 1851. The author comments on the governmental administrative activities in Colombia at the time, including the processes of planning, coordinating, and controlling resources involved with the war. He analyzes a series of government records, official correspondence, and media documents from the period that demonstrate the role of the administration during the war as well as the process of nation building in the immediate aftermath.

It's internationally recognized for proper management of documents generated by agencies of state administration in any country, it is essential to the existence of a legal body that regulates the management of public record, in which consists the documentation may be requested through the right of access to public information. Chilean reality provides various rules that address issues relating to archives and records management, creating a regulatory dispersion which causes problems when applying and interpreting the provisions in accordance with the reality that today we can observe in the structure of the Administration. The second part of this research reviews the scope that has the current legislation regarding the disposal of documents, become clear that the primary legislation in the matter not from a specialized agency, not expressly establishes the documentary and archival principle assessment to support the expurgation and in all cases not specifically identified, is given to the agency head the power to remove documents that it deems lack of interest. Finally there is a brief overview of the most significant judgments and decisions concerning public records emanating from the Comptroller General of the Republic and the Council for Transparency, in order to illustrate the practical application of certain rules.

This article discusses a number of documents used to administer the haciendas of the Jesuit province of Paraguay. These instruments were approved by Rome, were similar to those in other American Jesuit provinces, and can be organized in various groups: memoranda concerning daily life written by the provincial head, general ordinances for visitors, recommendations for experienced priests, etc. The documents are proof that the success of the economic administration of the Order was not accidental, but rather well thought-out over a period of time.
