You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.200.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 16:45, 10 February 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Arachnida Araneidea Vol 2 Table 20 high-res.jpg|thumb|right|Jumping spider illustrations from ''Biologia Centrali-Americana'']]
The '''''Biologia Centrali-Americana''''' is an encyclopedia of the [[natural history]] of [[Mexico]] and [[Central America]], privately issued in 215 parts from 1879 to 1915 by the editors [[Frederick DuCane Godman]] and [[Osbert Salvin]], of the [[British Museum (Natural History)]] in [[London]].<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.sil.si.edu/DigitalCollections/Bca/documentation/INOTAXAOverview.pdf|publisher=Smithsonian Institution|access-date=29 October 2017|title=INOTAXA INtegrated Open TAXonomic Access and the "Electronic Biologia Centrali-Americana"))</ref> It was begun by [[Alfred Maudslay]] publishing his first long-form description of the Archaeology at [[Chichen Itza]] (London: R.H. Porter and Dulau, 1889–1902).

This work is still fundamental for the study of [[Neotropical]] plants and animals, because it contains almost all that was known of the [[biodiversity]] of Mexico and Central America at the time of its publication. Leading scientists of the day were the authors of the volumes. The whole series has 63 volumes with 1677 [[lithograph]] plates (more than 900 of which are in color) depicting 18,587 subjects. In total, 50,263 species are treated, of which 19,263 are described as new.((sfn|Lyal|2011|p=67)) [[Archaeology]] was added to the already monumental project because of new discoveries in the region.

Since the ''Biologia Centrali-Americana'' was published, several volumes have been reprinted, but on the whole the series is rare in libraries and mostly absent from Latin American research institutions. The original volumes were printed on [[acid paper]] and have suffered from handling of the now brittle pages.

The [[Smithsonian Institution]] has digitized the encyclopedia for distribution via the internet. All the volumes are available at the [[Biodiversity Heritage Library]].
