The purpose of this article is to analyze a methodological proposal for the formulation of knowledge management models applied to the context of Higher Education Institutions. The proposal was validated in the Fundación Universitaria Católica del Norte, de Medellin-Colombia. The methodology is a path consisting of diagnosis, design, implementation and validation of strategies. The dimensions and categories of the model were theoretically validated, as well as their applicability through interactive workshops, under the method of thought design. Among the main results is the usefulness of making a previous diagnosis in order to contextualize the intervention landscape and generate knowledge maps aimed at raising awareness of institutional procedures such as mechanism to explain and appropriate relevant knowledge.

Presents specimen-supported evidence concerning the breeding behavior of the Ecuadorian cacique, a member of the Icteridae bird family. Breeding range of the bird in Colombia; Nest characteristics and breeding behavior of the species.

Between September 2005 and April 2006 we observed 20 nests and 42 nestlings of the tropical mockingbird, Mimus gilvus (Vieillot, 1808) in Villa de Leiva, Boyacá, Colombia. 40% of all nestlings (40% of the nests) showed some level of myiasis or subcutaneous infestation by fly larvae (Diptera: Muscidae). The larvae collected from one of the nestlings were reared and identified as Philornis vulgaris Couri 1984, constituting the first record for this species in Colombia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
