Echinoderms from the Seaflower Biosphere Reserve

Description

Data Records

The data in this checklist resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 148 records.

1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.

This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Geographic Coverage

The SFBR was declared in November 2000 by UNESCO, and covers the extension of the department of Colombia “Archipiélago de San Andrés, Providencia y Santa Catalina”, which has an approximate area of 180,000 km2 of which less than 1% is emerged (CORALINA-INVEMAR, 2012). Within the SFBR is the Marine Protected Area Seaflower with 65,018 km2, declared in 2005 and divided in three sections: a northern section (37,522 km2) that includes Quitasueño, Serrana and Roncador as well as multiple deep submerged banks; a central section (12,716 km2) that includes Providencia and Santa Catalina; and a southern section (14,780 km2) encompassing San Andrés, Bolívar and Albuquerque among other banks (Figure 1). Although the sections share similar environments dominated by corals, transparent waters and oceanic features, each one has particular dynamics of fishing exploitation, which make them to require specific management actions (CORALINA-INVEMAR, 2012).

Taxonomic Coverage

In the present dataset, we report a total of 148 echinoderm species within the SFBR. Ophiuroidea was the most species-rich class (44 species), followed by Asteroidea (38), Echinoidea (31), Holothuroidea (26) and Crinoidea (9).

Project Data

This dataset is reported in the data report “Echinoderms of the Seaflower Biosphere Reserve: state of knowledge and new findings” published in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science 6:188, doi: 10.3389/fmars.2019.00188 (Borrero-Pérez et al., 2019). We updates the checklist presented by Borrero-Pérez et al. (2016) including new records from unpublished results of samplings conducted in 2011 by Universidad Nacional de Colombia-Sede Caribe, the Seaflower Expeditions 2016 and 2017, and open-access databases. A descriptive analysis of species richness and spatial distribution patterns was made and some outcomes are presented. A total of 148 echinoderm species were found within the SFBR. Ophiuroidea was the most species-rich class (44 species), followed by Asteroidea (38), Echinoidea (31), Holothuroidea (26) and finally Crinoidea (9).

Sampling Methods

This dataset compiles the lists of echinoderms species recorded within the SFBR and derived from: i) Peer reviewed papers or published reports of several investigations, most of them supported by voucher specimens deposited at Museo de Historia Natural Marina de Colombia (MHNMC-INVEMAR), available through the Sistema de Información sobre Biodiversidad Marina (SIBM), and at the National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) (Quiñones, 1981; INVEMAR-ANH, 2012; Vega-Sequeda et al., 2015; Clark, 1939; Clark and Downey, 1992; Benavides-Serrato et al., 2011; Borrero-Pérez et al., 2012; Benavides-Serrato et al., 2013; CORALINA, 2001; García et al., 2003; Díaz et al., 2003; Vélez, 2003; García-Hanse and Álvarez-León, 2007; Lasso, 2007a, b; Mejía-Ladino et al., 2008; Abril-Howard et al., 2012; INVEMAR-SIBM a, b, c; NMNH); ii) The Ocean Biogeographic Information System (OBIS) data base; iii) The Global Biodiversity of Information Facility (GBIF) data base. The search at GBIF data base was conducted using two polygons including the SFBR: Polygon 1 (-80W 11.8N,-78W 11.8N, -78W 16.2N, -80W 16.2N, -80W 11.8N), Polygon 2 (-82W 11N, -80W 11N, -80W 15N, -82W 15N, -82W 11N); iv) Biological records available at SIB Colombia reporting the unpublished results of samplings made in 2011 and the results of several projects developed during the Seaflower Expeditions 2016 and 2017 (Unal et al., 2016; Benavides-Serrato et al., 2018a, b; Borrero-Pérez 2018).
