Misconceptions about the ability of researchers to relocate the holotype of the Galapagos pink land iguana through the use of a passive integrated transponder

Zootaxa, 2010
Isla Isabela is the largest island in the Galapagos archipelago and hosts three endemic iguanid lizard species (Tzika et al. 2008, Gentile & Snell 2009): Amblyrhynchus cristatus (Bell, 1825), Conolophus subcristatus (Gray, 1831) and Conolophus marthae Gentile & Snell, 2009.

Conservation of a New Flagship Species: The Galápagos Pink Land Iguana (Conolophus marthae Gentile and Snell, 2009)

2015
In 2009, the Galapagos Pink Land Iguana (Conolophus marthae) was reported to science. There are several issues that threaten the existence of this species. These include small population size, extremely limited distribution, possible competition with a syntopic population of C. subcristatus, and introduced predators.

Characterizing pink and white noise in the human electroencephalogram

Journal of Neural Engineering, 2021
Objective. The power spectrum of the human electroencephalogram (EEG) as a function of frequency is a mix of brain oscillations (Osc) (e.g. alpha activity around 10 Hz) and non-Osc or noise of uncertain origin. ‘White noise’ is uniformly distributed over

Global Patterns of Resistance to Bt Crops Highlighting Pink Bollworm in the United States, China, and India

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2019
Crops genetically engineered to produce insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) have advanced pest control, but their benefits have been reduced by evolution of resistance in pests.The global monitoring data reviewed here reveal 19 cases ...

A facile water-induced complexation of lycopene and pectin from pink guava byproduct: Extraction, characterization and kinetic studies.

Food Chemistry, 2019
The redfleshed pulp discarded from pink guava puree industry is a rich source of lycopene and pectin. In this study, we developed a facile extraction process employing water as the primary extraction medium to isolate the lycopene and pectin from pink ...

The Galápagos pink land iguana: possible sources of risk.

2011
Three species land iguanas (Conolophus subcristatus, C. pallidus and C. marthae) exist in the Galápagos. All are endemic to that archipelago and recognized endangered, as result of direct and indirect human impact on the wildlife of the islands. The recently discovered and described species C.

The pink land iguana from Galápagos: sources of risk

2011
Conolophus marthae (Gentile and Snell, 2009) is endemic to Galápagos islands and is restricted to a single location (Volcan Wolf, Isabela Island), where it lives in sympatry with a population of C. subcristatus. Based on our data and from reports of the Galápagos National Park since 1986, the species has never been observed outside an area larger ...
