RAE
 
There is not a comma in front of the and+last item in a list.
 
Three dot ellipsis is never preceded by a space, but is followed by one. No space between ellipsis and a following punctuation mark. Never followed by an additional period. capitalization of following words depends on whether it is the start of a new entire sentence.
 
 
In this section, I am describing the norms of punctuation established in the 2005 edition of the [http://www.rae.es/recursos/diccionarios/dpd Diccionario panhispánico de dudas] and its 2010 [http://www.rae.es/sites/default/files/Principales_novedades_de_la_Ortografia_de_la_lengua_espanola.pdf orthographic update], both joint publications of the RAE and the academies of 22 other Spanish-speaking countries. Not all publishers necessarily follow all of these norms; however, since the DPD is an authoritative, international, and easily consulted source, I think we ought to follow it in every detail.
 
 
prefixes. All prefixes are written directly attached to their word without a hyphen (e.g. exministro, antimafia), except when attached to a capitalized word or a number, in which case they are hyphenated (e.g. pos-Gorbachov, sub-21). However, in the case where the prefix is attached to a group of words, the prefix is not hyphenated nor are the other wors (e.g. ex primer ministro, pre Segunda Guerra Mundial).
