<div id="ygrps-yiv-547494781">In addition to the state boundary disputes in the Yucatán Peninsula, the EL <br/>
UNIVERSAL article also mentioned existing boundary disputes: (1) between the <br/>
states of Jalisco and Colima; and (2) between Zacatecas and its neighbors <br/>
Durango, Jalisco, and Nayarit.<br/>
<br/>
I have learned that the former primarily concerns an ejido called Plan de Méndez <br/>
(also known as Marabasco) supposedly in the municipio Cuautitlán de García <br/>
Barragán, Jalisco.  Most maps show that the boundary between this municipio and <br/>
the state of Colima consists of streams, one being the Río Marabasco.  I have <br/>
found the village (as &quot;Marabasco&quot;) on only one map, that being the Colima sheet <br/>
in the 1995 Gran Atlas de Carreterras by Guía Roji.  That map shows Marabasco <br/>
well onto the Jalisco side of the river.  More information on the controversy <br/>
can be found in Spanish on a one-page PDF at <br/>
