(2015-01-01) Ballesteros Correa, Jesús; Linares Arias, Juan Carlos;
There is no doubt that Colombia can be considered as one of the sites with the highest concentration of biodiversity in the world, which is based on the presence of a significant proportion of the world's fauna, estimated exceeds 1,900 bird species (Donegan et al., 2012), 771 amphibian species (Lynch et al., 1997), 492 species of mammals (Solari et al., 2013), more than 506 reptile species (Chaves and Santamaría, 2006), about 3,200 species of fish (Alvarado and Gutiérrez, 2002) and about 1,900 marine species (Campos et al., 2003). One of the best studied groups are insects, with 3,019 species known of diurnal butterflies (Andrade, 2001) and 4,800 species of hymenoptera (Fernández, 2000). In the marine part, it is estimated that 970 have been registered Crustacean species, 2,200 molluscs, 150 corals and 290 echinoderms (Quiros and Campos, 2013), without the great diversity of other invertebrates.
