The type specimens and specimens labelled as types of unavailable names of the genus Ectinogonia Spinola, 1837 deposited in the Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (MNCN-CSIC), Madrid (Spain) are catalogued and illustrated. Thirteen type or possible type specimens of five different taxa were found, including the holotype of the subspecies originally described as Ectinogonia (Ectinogonia) melichari rufimarginata Cobos, 1969 (now E. (Kheiliella) melichari rufimarginata).

We present here the first comprehensive checklist of Thysanoptera in Colombia. This study is based on a literature review, examination of specimens deposited in museums, and fieldwork conducted from 2012 to 2018 across various agroecosystems in the Andean, Caribbean, and Orinoco regions. Our study reports 38 new records of Thysanoptera for Colombia, bringing the total number of documented species to 183.

Article Synopsis
- Endemic species, particularly butterflies in Mexico, are highlighted for their unique histories and the vital information they provide about their local environments, with this study being the first comprehensive compilation on this topic.
- The research analyzed 272 endemic butterfly taxa, creating distribution maps and examining their biogeographical patterns across various ecological regions, revealing that most endemic species are found in the southwestern part of the country.
- The study identifies sampling biases and under-researched areas, suggesting that the Sierra Madre Occidental should be the main focus for future research efforts on endemic butterflies to enhance knowledge and conservation strategies.

taphonomy and neotaphonomic monitoring have become two relevant tools in interpreting modifications, and most especially in forensic investigations. Research facilities, where human decomposition experiments are carried out under controlled situations, provide a better understanding of the tapho-forensic history of cadaveric remains under specific environments and in different situations or even climates. There are, however, limitations of time to monitoring, such as space for experimentation and ethics, that do not always allow to carry out these types of investigations.
