22-09-2016 - Burrowing scorpion
The genus Didymocentrus comprises among the most interesting scorpions of Cuba. They have burrowing habits and are highly habitat specific. Only three species occur in Cuba, all endemic and restricted to the central region of the main island. The aim of this project is to provide updated information on the ecology, distribution and population genetic structure of these seriously threatened endemic scorpions.

09-12-2015 - Alfiler
Preserving Acacia belairioides, a critically endangered endemic tree from serpentines in north-eastern Cuba. This species is considered critically endangered. Potential causes of the threatened status of the species are fragmentation and loss of habitat, which led to the disappearance of a subpopulation. This project will contribute to the enrichment of natural populations and provide updated conservation status.

09-12-2015 - Elkhorn coral
The project includes the characterization of “La Laja” coral reef, whose structure and biological composition is not well known. It also comprises the monitoring, gathering and analysis of biological and ecological data of Acropora palmata colonies to recognize and prevent any potential threat. Training and awareness activities with the local communities are also included to enhance the conservation of this threatened stony coral species.

09-12-2015 - Black eyed tree frog
Assessing threats and opportunities for Agalychnis moreletii conservation, linking reproductive success, habitat suitability and chytridiomycosis presence for population restoration is a project to save the last populations of this frog species in Mexico. We will analyze trough a demographic framework the environmental and biological needs for reproductive success in this species and analyze the viability to implement a corridor system to ...
