(Sorry for cross-postings)
Greetings again!!
Since I am in charge of the Section of Hydrobiologics of the National Council for Protected Areas and we are in need of having researched our natural resources, if anyone wishes to carry out research here, please contact me. We can help solve many problems, specialy those with research permits, collecting permits, and transportation permits.
The species that we consider of great interest to study, because of the fishing pressure, in the area of Peten are:
Petenia splendida (bay snook) Dorosoma petenense (Threadfin shad) Cichlasoma spp. (freshwater cichlids) Rhamdia guatemalensis (catfish) Astyanax fasciatus (Mexican tetra) Melaniris sp.
There are many others, but I will be sending species names later on...
What we need?
Anything related to basic biology, fishing stocks, etc... As a matter of fact, anything that can help us establish a better fishing regulation. It seems quiet ridiculous since we could do it, but we can't because we lack economical resources.
Rivers and Lakes of Peten that are of great importance:
San Pedro River Usumacinta River Mopan River
Lake Peten Itza Lake Salpeten Lake Macanche Laguna Perdida ("Lost Lake") Lake Yaxha (and Sacnab) Lake Gloria Lake San Diego Lake Mendoza Lake El Repasto Lake Petexbatun Lake La Sombra Lake Ixcoche Lake Las Pozas
Again, thank you very much for your attention.
Regards,
Arturo
