Ítem Acercamiento a la biodiversidad desde la clase de biología a estudiantes con necesidades específicas en el Colegio República de ChinaGranobles Hernández, Maillyn Johanna; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo [0000-0003-3573-4154]Throughout history it has been seen how biodiversity has declined due to various factors. We, as biology teachers who have tools, can integrate this problem into curricular projects so that students understand and become aware of this important element that is life. Now, it is necessary not only to relate the various topics but also to include education. Generating support material for students with specific needs is part of the comprehensive models for their development and makes us a significant support for them since we are not only in their learning process but also in their support models. Due to the above, adaptations must be maintained in the materials of the students who require it during this way to improve the learning and appropriation of the themes seen during the school year, relating it in turn with daily life.Ítem La adaptación biológica como estrategia para la enseñanza de una ciencia que se transforma y es tranformadora, en la Institución Eucativa Rural Salamina, del municipio de Curillo, Caquetá.Alarcón-Álvarez, Laura Valentina; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoRural schools and colleges have been built and maintained by the efforts of communities in the midst of conflict, state abandonment and indifference. It is necessary to focus on strategies that improve the teaching-learning experiences of rural students, especially on issues of scientific literacy so that they can use this knowledge in making decisions about problems in their environment. However, as a result of the different problems that can be seen in rural schools, science teaching is presented with a marked urban bias, oriented towards the traditional teaching of repetition and memorization of concepts. The nature of science, for its part, improves the learning of scientific knowledge; within this are aspects such as tentativeness and the socio-cultural roots of science. In this sense, the present work seeks for the students of the Salamina Rural Institution to understand the provisional and transformative nature of science through a strategy based on the historical development of the concept of biological adaptation. Among the results is the improvement in the understanding of the aforementioned aspects towards a more informed position, in addition to the understanding of other aspects of the nature of science that were not part of the main objectives, different teaching strategies are also established. . that can be useful for teaching science in rural contexts, such as field trips, art, and the inclusion of the history of science. Finally, a reflection is made regarding the need to act in favor of rural education that seeks to repair the damage that conflict and abandonment have created for years.Ítem Análisis de la composición del arbolado urbano de la media luna del sur de Bogotá, D.C-ColombiaCubides Vargas, Daniela; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoThis internship work was carried out within the framework of the research on "Carbon capture and storage in the urban trees of the medialuna of so of Bogota, Colombia", from the research line on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services of the Botanical Garden of Bogota José Celestino Mutis. This research was conducted on urban trees in the localities of Ciudad Bolivar, Usme, San Cristobal, Kennedy, Tunjuelito, Bosa and Rafael Uribe Uribe, using the database of the Sistema de Información para la Gestión del Arbolado Urbano (SIGAU) which contains the official information of the trees located in the urban public space of the city, In accordance with the objective of this line of research, this study sought to characterize the richness and abundance of the species of arboreal flora of the urban trees (AU) of the "media luna del sur de Bogotpa" of Bogotá, D. C, in order to contrast the diversity indexes between the localities that comprise it, in addition to recognizing the index of importance value (I.V.I) of these species. The diversity indexes of the localities analyzed showed marked differences, not only in the number of species present in each one but also in the uniformity of their distribution, which is why, according to the Shannon-Wiener index, the most diverse localities are Rafael Uribe Uribe, Kennedy and Ciudad Bolivar, a condition associated with the urban development of the localities, since the free spaces of possible use outside the small and large parks are different for each one. According to these indexes and the I.V.I., the most representative species in this zone of the UA are mostly exotic species, which stand out mainly for their dominance (basal area), as is the case of E. globulus and Acacia decurrens, dominant in most of the localities, because they are very old species that have reached heights of up to 48 meters, however, together with these species, others such as Quercus humdoldti, Quercus humdoldti, Quercus humdoldti, Quercus humdoldti and Quercus humdoldti, are also very representative. Quercus humdoldti, Retrophyllum rospigliosii, Juglans neotropica may in the long term become the new representative species for the become the new representative species of the UA because they also possess characteristics such as characteristics such as: size, foliage, longevity, important and beneficial for it.Ítem Análisis de la educación ambiental y ambiente al interior de los guiones que se utilizan para las caminatas ecológicas realizadas por los guías de turismo del IDRD. (2012-2019)Mendoza Martínez, Yesica; Rivera Sánchez, Cindy; Salamanca Pira, Pedro; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoIn the present research work, an analysis of Environmental and Environmental Education was carried out in the scripts used to the ecological walks in the city of Bogotá D.C. in charge of the District Institute of Recreation and Sports (DIRS). This was done from a qualitative-deductive investigation that was composed, first, for a preliminary phase (qualitative surveys) and second, a qualitative content analysis of the scripts. From which we obtained the results: The guides have a traditional vision of EE and Environment, which agrees with what was found from the qualitative content analysis regarding the Currents of EE (Sauvé, 2005) and the meanings of environment (Jasso, 2016), where the EE currents that stood out in their order were the naturalistic, the resolutive and the conservationist / recursist, in the case of meanings of environment, environment1 was the one that stood out the most. It was concluded that the scripts are elaborated from a classical and intuitive point of view and that they require a reformulation based on the conscious selection of some recent EE current and a meaning of environment as environment3, where it can be achieved to generate a greater impact on the change in attitudes and behaviors of the users of the ecological walks carried out in the city of Bogotá DCÍtem Análisis de la relación ecológica que se presenta entre Syntheosciurus Granatensis y Eucalyptus Globulus en la reserva umbral cultural horizontes, implementación de taller artístico.González Arias, Aileen Radharani; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo; 0009-0007-0263-6597In the Horizons cultural threshold reserve, an undocumented relationship has been observed between the squirrel Syntheosciurus Granatensis and Eucalyptus Globulus, in the context of a restoration plan to replace eucalyptus with native species. This study focused on identifying the interaction between these species through direct sightings, photo trapping and focal observations. The camera traps recorded 30% of effective photos, highlighting S. granatensis as the most frequent species, followed by Cerdocyon thous, Nasuella olivacea and Canis familiaris. These records are valuable for Bogotá and the reserve, providing crucial data for conservation in the eastern hills, affected by threats to biodiversity. 35 focal samples were carried out accumulating 104 hours of observation, distributed in high, medium and low zones. The results showed 29 individuals in the middle zone, 4 in the low zone and none in the high zone. Feeding behaviours with gnawed E. globulus fruits were recorded, confirming that S. granatensis feeds on this invasive species. The conclusions show the need for further studies to understand the impact of squirrels on eucalyptus and highlight the importance of monitoring mammals for conservation. In addition, the importance of community perception is highlighted, where the population recognises eucalyptus as an invasive plant, but also recognises its ecosystem services. Regarding squirrels, they recognise the ecosystem services of squirrels, especially seed dispersal. This knowledge is essential to guide restoration and conservation efforts in the reserve.Ítem Análisis del estado actual del proyecto ambiental escolar aplicado en el Colegio Nuestra Señora de la Sabiduría de BogotáSuárez Niño, Anyuri Evelin; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoThe inclusion of environment education in the formal educational institutions arises because specific and global problematic, which affect to the individuals and the planet today, for this reason in Colombian national context builds one normative that allows approaching problematic of environment type and involving strategies such as school environmental projects PRAE with one objective to find out solve them. According to, the present Project work research find out analyzing the impact of the implementation of PRAE applied in the Nuestra Señora de la Sabiduría School, from the duty to be of a PRAE project and the regard national normative. For this analysis established two specific objectives: Describe the impact got from the school environmental project applied in the school last year ago, and evaluate of interpretative way the environment project data collect through qualitative tools. From these objectives determined to carry out a qualitative approach that collected data for being interpretative later. For this project work took as base of analysis Robert Stake’s evaluative model, inasmuch as allows a major approach and interpretation of reality and the context of school interpretative and participatory way in order to make value judgments. The results proved that factors such as participation in the design, execution and evaluation of the project, research, transversely, inter discipline, repercussion and coherence of the results of the PRAE with the project action plan, they must be improved and strengthened in order to impact optimally in the community and consequently, reflect through the execution of the project a transformation of culture in individuals.Ítem Análisis dinámico del aviturismo bajo la incidencia del Covid-19 en la Región del Tequendama (Cundinamarca/Colombia)Suárez González, María Angélica; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo; Beltrán Vargas, Julio EduardoIn order to analyze the dynamics of the socio-ecological system of avitourism in the context of a pandemic in the Tequendama Region, a mixed-domain approach was applied to identify, assess, and understand the complex transformations that are occurring in the socio-ecological system. For this purpose, the bird tourism management indicators were detected, the qualitative measurement of the indicators was made based on the perceptions of the bird tourism actors, and finally the dynamic modeling was carried out to evaluate the incidence of Covid-19 in two scenarios. temporarily raised between the period 2000-2030. Regarding the first two objectives, the Atlas.ti tool was used as software for computer-assisted qualitative data analysis, and for dynamic simulation, the VenSim program and the Montecarlo method were used for validation. The results detected 27 indicators associated with the sustainable management of bird tourism, of which 42% were diagnosed by the bird tourism actors at an acceptable level, and in the face of dynamic modeling it is concluded that the incidence of Covid-19 is low in management. of birdwatching in the Tequendama Region, given that by 2030, in the most pessimistic scenario with the incidence of Covid-19 at 100%, the demand for the service continues to increase by 10 birdwatchers/year, while in the scenario with the absence of a pandemic, the demand for the service could increase more than 100% by 2030, which represents around 685 birdwatchers/year for the Tequendama Region. At a multidimensional level, the social and ecological incidence is more complex, so suggestions are made for the strengthening of tourism management.Ítem Aplicación de rasgos morfométricos tradicionales y geométricos para el análisis del complejo Achnanthidium minutissimum (Kützing) Czarnecki (Bacillariophyceae) en lagos de la cordillera oriental de ColombiaRobayo Chaparro, Johanna Andrea; Palacios Londoño, Angela Ivonne; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoThe Achnanthidium minutissimum (Kützing) Czarnecki (Bacillariophyceae) complex is one of the most complex diatoms in terms of its taxonomy and nomenclatural history, due to the small size of the leaflets and intraspecific morphological differences related to the ecological response (Potapova and Hamilton, 2007). In order to study the morphological variation of the Achnanthidium minutissimum complex in lakes of the Eastern mountain range of Colombia, the analysis of traditional morphometry and geometric morphometry was used, applying this analysis to the five morphotypes identified and found within the Aquitaine Black Lagoons, Los PNN Pisba ducks. , Laguna Amarilla, Laguna Peña negra and Laguna los Pozos. These two methods allowed for a clearer and more precise differentiation for the identification of individuals.Ítem Aporte a la diversidad de macrohongos (Ascomycetes y Basidiomycetes) presentes en el sendero ecológico de la quebrada las delicias (Chapinero, Bogotá D.C.)Quiroga Arenas, Yeimy Andrea; Supelano Gómez, Wendy Lorena; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoDespite the abundance of fungi and the role they play in ecosystems, they have been little studied, so it is important that the identification studies in these organizations not only have an academic production approach, but additionally it is urgent that they be informative. Therefore, a research work was carried out which was developed in the ecological path of Quebrada las Delicias, located in the western foothills of the eastern hills, whose sampling was between the july 2018 until april 2019. This was organized in two phases methodological: one of taxonomic determination and another of disclosure (Which includes the socialization of research and development of a catalog). The results thrown showed that the species with the greatest abundance of fruiting bodies was the Laccaria laccata (With a total of 3718 copies); it was also observed that, in the months of october and april, due to the increase in rainfall, the number of fructifications rose significantly compared to the other months. It was concluded that the indices of abundance and wealth were greater in transects 4 and 5 that are found and higher and precipitation confirming that these are the variables that allow greater fruiting. It is recommended to do more work with the community since there was a positive approach between the community and the Quebrada, which is important in terms of ownership and care of the territory. This work generates a contribution to the knowledge of the macro fungi present in Bogotá D.C. Additionally, species such as Cordierites frondosa, Resupinatus trichotis and genera such as Postia sp., Antrodia sp. It also contributes to the rapprochement with the community and scientific research, publicizing the diversity of fungi present in this path and the ecosystem resources they offer.Ítem Aportes al conocimiento de Aotus lemurinus (Geoffroy 1843) como dispersor de semillas, en un bosque de Cundinamarca.Mena Bosa, Alejandra; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoArboreal and frugivorous mammals, such as primates, can disperse seeds in areas of plant species regeneration. The objective of this work is to establish whether the Andean night monkey A. lemurinus disperses plant species by microscopic inspection of its excreta. In the case of non-habituated populations, a habituated group of 4 individuals of A. lemurinus was followed at night, paying special attention to feeding events (AFR) and defecation events (SDE), which are hypothesized to be closely related to seed dispersal. A sampling effort of 432 hours of monitoring was achieved and 67 observer samplings were completed where activity pattern and diet were observed 69 sightings and 203 focal records, during the dry season and rainy season of 2020. The seed morphotypes that were most prevalent in the excreta analyzed belong to the genera Cecropia and Miconia. These are indeed the fruits most consumed by individuals of A. lemurinus in this Andean forest. The results contribute to the knowledge of the possible initiatives of regeneration of tropical forests that could be carried out in the management of the species.Ítem Aportes al proceso de restauración de la reserva umbral cultural horizontes, con el uso de herramientas sig.Vargas Moreno, Andrés Felipe; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo [0000-0003-3573-4154]The objective of this report is to expose the achievements obtained within the process of the internship entitled "contributions to the restoration process of the horizons cultural threshold reserve" based on GIS tools and the application of i. In addition to recording data on plants and their possible diseases. The work includes a contextualization structure, methodology, results and analysis. The results of this internship contribute to the monitoring and development of the ecological restoration plan of the horizons cultural threshold reserve.Ítem Aproximación al estado de conocimiento de Caiman crocodilus Linnaeus, 1758 en ColombiaPérez Ortiz, Brayan Andre; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoCaiman crocodilus is a species of alligator that is distributed throughout the American continent, from the southern United States to the north of Bolivia. It currently has three valid subspecies C. crocodilus fuscus, C. crocodilus chiapasius and C. crocodilus crocodilus, because it was recently described that the subspecies C. crocodilus apaporiensis really is a morphological variation of the subspecies C.c. crocodilus. This species is commonly called as ‘’ spectacled caiman’’ due to the edge that forms in the anterior part of its eyes, in Colombia it is known as ‘’Babilla’’ and is usually recognized in practically all the departments of the country due to its commercial use and its extensive distribution. Despite the recognition of the species throughout the territory, its study focuses on production, trade, and use, leaving aside its study in wild populations and its interaction and importance in the habitats in which it is present, therefore, a bibliographic review is necessary to evaluate the state of knowledge of the species in Colombia and effectively understand the key points for its use and conservation. To achieve this, an exhaustive review of databases, research tools, web pages, software was carried out and a map of the current distribution of the species was generated. 198 documents associated with the species were collected and divided into the following categories: general, application and use, conservation, distribution, ecology and systematics. Most of the information was associated with the category of application and use. The results indicate that most of the documents at the regional level come from the Caribbean, where zoocria processes are largely developed. It seems that the main interest generated by the species is its commercial value which makes it essential to prioritize studies in the wild because, although the species is not threatened, its historical mismanagement could be affecting its conservation.Ítem "Arbogotá", una aplicación para dispositivos móviles con sistema operativo Android para la identificación de plantas arbóreas y arbustivas del Parque Regional La Florida de Bogotá, ColombiaTapiero Mendieta, Angie Tatiana; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoThe objective of this project is to implement the use of TICs through an application for mobile devices with Android system, focused on the identification of arboreal and shrub vegetation belonging to the Regional Park of Bogotá La Florida, in order to strengthen knowledge of the inhabitants of the city with respect to their surroundings. This project was carried out in three phases: the field phase, which is based on the identification of the tree and shrub plant species present in the study area and the bibliographic and photographic collection of the same; the design phase, which includes the design, implementation and review of the application; and the evaluation phase, based on the pilot test and evaluation of the application executed by 15 people belonging to the academic population and 15 people from the common population.Ítem Bioindicación de la calidad del agua en corrientes altoandinas. Aplicación de los índices de monitoreo biológico BMWP’/Col y BMWP’/Cu(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas. Colombia) Giraldo Quintero, GustavoÍtem Caracterización de la diversidad de plantas asociadas a ulex Europaeus presente en la Reserva Umbral Cultural HorizontesMartínez Martín, Ana María; Ramos Sánchez, Angie Catalina; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoInvasive species are those that, when introduced naturally, accidentally or intentionally into an environment that is not their own, manage to adapt to it and colonize it (UNAL, 2018). Invasive species establish themselves in an ecosystem or natural habitat and become an agent of change that threatens native ecosystems and biological diversity. The UNAL indicates that invasive species are taxonomically divided as follows: microorganisms, plants, invertebrates, fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, among others. Andrade, director of the Institute of Natural Sciences (ICN) of the National University of Invasive plants and animals are distributed throughout its geography (Cárdenas & López et al. 2017). The thorny broom (Ulex europaeus) is a clear example of a species that generates negative impacts on the native biodiversity of high mountain areas (Ríos, 2005). The establishment of species like these could negatively impact the supply of ecosystem services (water regulation) of both the moor and the high Andean forest and, above all, change the disturbance regime of said ecosystems. Therefore, this project seeks to characterize the biodiversity of plants associated with the development of thorny broom (Ulex europaeus) and identify the modifications and structure present in the high Andean forest ecosystem due to its presence, the above, through the determination of the Simpson, Shannon Wiener, Fisher alpha and Margalef diversity indices in three plots located in the upper area of the Umbral Cultural Horizontes Reserve conditioned with the low, medium and high presence of the Ulex europaeus species. Finally, as a product of the project, a scientific dissemination magazine was designed which allows citizens to be made aware of the impact of the proliferation of invasive species such as Ulex europaeus in the Eastern Hills, thus promoting awareness regarding the conservation of ecosystems such as the of high Andean forest.Ítem Caracterización etnobotánica de plantas medicinales utilizadas por familias campesinas del municipio de alpujarra en el departamento del TolimaMarín González, Manuel Josué; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo [0000-0003-3573-4154]A study of the medicinal plants used by peasant families in the municipality of Alpujarra in the department of Tolima, Colombia, was carried out with the objective of characterizing, recognizing its importance, itself with the use and transmission of this knowledge, for which open interviews during different meetings with the community such as walks, visits to the farm, and day laborers collecting coffee, where different approaches were generated that allowed the interview to take place smoothly and without pressure. In the characterization, the Lamiaceae family was evidenced as the most used in the region with 20% followed by the Verbenaceae family with 16.6%, having a pluriactive action mainly, followed by Integumentary use, that is, for healing, toning, among others. If there is a transmission of knowledge from the elderly to the young population, this is minimal thanks to the migration of young people to the city and the death of the elderly, which is why it is concluded that it is necessary to generate conservation strategies for this knowledge. as is the illustrated booklet of medicinal plants used in the municipality of Alpujarra Tolima.Ítem Cartilla ilustrada para el reconocimiento y la preservación de la flora presente en el bosque del barrio San José, municipio de Sibaté (Cundinamarca)Torres Niño, Aura Lucía; Giraldo Quintero, Gustavo; 0000-0001-7305-610XThe present book "The Secret of Plants" is an artistic creation resulting from field research and the construction of narratives that allow recognizing the most important characteristics of some flora species existing in the forest of the San José neighborhood located in Sibaté, Cundinamarca. The book was elaborated by previously characterizing species of vegetation, taking photographs, and searching for references that allowed recognizing the morphology, taxonomy, and uses of the respective plants for their identification. The dissemination of this book is projected as educational material with various environmental and social approaches, sensitizing the community about the importance of preserving the ecosystems of Sibaté and the species that comprise them.Ítem Colonización de sustratos por macroinvertebrados acuáticos en las aguas de la Quebrada Charquira del municipio de Carmen de CarupaManrique Barreto, Eliana Alexandra; Gómez Alarcón, Sonia Marcela; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoThe research was carried out during the month of October 2016, and its main objective was to evaluate the selection of substrates by aquatic macroinvertebrates in two stations of Charquira gorge, in the municipality of Carmen of Carupa; the first station (pasture area) has presented the stone substrate, the second station (Vegetation zone) is characterized by native vegetation and not native in the margin of the creek, the present substrate is fallen leaves; each of the stations is divided by 8 sampling points each 1 meter apart and at each point two substrate types (fallen leaves and stone) were arranged for 16 substrates at each station and a total of 32 substrates; the physicochemical variables of the water were determined and a sampling was carried out with the Surber network at each of the respective sampling points of each station; the collection of the colonization artifacts, the sampling with the network and the respective measurements of the physicochemical parameters were carried out at 1, 3, 5, 7, 13, 19, 25 and 31 days of exposure; we determined both the colonizing species and the species that were sampled with the network, there were significant differences in season 2 with respect to season 1 versus the total number of individuals, the genus Helisoma was the only one that showed selectivity in the fallen leaves substrate. In total, 989 individuals distributed in 7 orders, 8 families and 18 genera, the dominant genus for station 1 was Chironomus with 287 individuals, station 2 was the Tanytarsus genus with 225 individuals, followed by Helisoma with 158 Individuals; The substrate with the highest number of colonizing individuals was fallen leaves; There was no correlation between genders and physicochemical parameters; Dissolved oxygen, phosphorus and ammoniacal nitrogen showed low concentration, which shows that the waters of the ravine are oligotrophic, a slightly acid pH and average of 13 ° C; The conductivity was 66 mV and 51 mV for stations 1 and 2 respectively and turbidity values of 12.2 and 5.8 NTU. The riparian vegetation is important to maintain a heterogeneous community, because this one brings different substrates to the ravine.Ítem Comparación de modelos pedagógicos utilizados en el proceso de aprendizaje del concepto bioindicador. Caso particular: Marchantia polymorphaVela Ballén, Ana María; Salazar Hurtado, Diana Carolina; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoThe research, called, "comparison of pedagogical models used in the learning process of the bioindicator concept. in a concreted case : Marchantia polymorpha " Focused on the teaching of this concept, taking as a main example the hepatic Thalia Marchantia polymorpha, >>>>The main objective was to establish the differences in the learning process of the concept, in the students in seventh grade of the school Normal Superior Distrital María Montessori with virtual learning strategies (virtual learning object) and face-to-face learning (workshops, guides, activities, among others) through 3 explanatory models in science (constructivist, cognitive conflict and use of ICT) to analyze subsequently the influence of the different teaching strategies in the learning of the bioindicator concept. For this, the work was carried out in three phases, the first consisted of a socioeconomic survey and a test of previous ideas, which the answers were grouped according to their similarity; In the second stage, the classes were observed which the courses were characterized, and the last one, the models were applied, where a summative evaluation was carried out, following the learning process. At the end of this stage, the construction of the Bioindicator concept was requested. When analyzing the results obtained, it was possible to conclude that the learning must be related to the environment of the students and must also represent a challenge for them, this allowed for significant learning.Ítem El Comportamiento de Cortejo Y Agonístico en la Familia Squamata: TropiduridaeOspina Ramírez, Juan Pablo; Giraldo Quintero, GustavoThe lizards occupy most ecosystems on the planet, one of the most diverse vertebrates in nature, this characteristic is due to their evolutionary success; For this reason they are ideal for research on ecological and behavioral area because of its accessibility to the experimental work (Font et al, 2010; Greenberg, 1978). The Tropiduridae family, commonly known as lizards Neotropics, has a wide distribution over the Andes and even reach lowlands (DAMA, 2006; Lynch & Renjifo, 2001; Suarez, 2011) species have developed behavioral strategies to communicate some type of message to other individuals, these messages keep animal societies; These signals are emitted by animals to communicate something specific to other individuals, some types of signals use different anatomical structures and physiological states for display to its receptor (Fitted, 2009; Carranza, 1994, Pianka & Vitt, 2006) in lizards, the exhibits are part, in most cases, social events such as reproductive and domain (Wiens, 2000) Because of this need was given to contribute to the search and analysis of scientific etologic production type in the Tropiduridae family, a family that is distributed in our country and in the South american continent in a variety of ecosystems and altitudes, which will reveal social aspects in this family, as are the different interactions exhibition between individuals of the same sex, how and what types of signals are used in the behavior domain, fight and competitiveness and intersexual behavioral strategies involved in reproduction, such as courtship, copulation and post-copulation (Trigosso et al., 2002). information about courtship and agonistic behavior in different international journals databases was collected; then the information collected in a list of behavior patterns found in species within the family Tropiduridae systematized; finally the information obtained about the behavior of agonistic interaction and courtship critically analyzed. In search of information in the databases most jobs were Taxonomic second measure type and Ecology (Area campeo and autoecology) and really scarce dedicate to the study of behavior; search following the schedule was finalized and the nine selected articles that talk about behavior contain only three issues agonistic interactions and / or courtship; One can say that the state of courtship behavior and agonistic encounters little input from not exceeding more than 5 jobs. Although the family is composed with a number of more than three hundred species, research on social behavior especially not represent or 4% of the studies that have been conducted within Tropiduridae.
