    BIAWAK Quarterly Journal of Varanid Biology and Husbandry Volume 4 Number 2 ISSN: 1936-296X On the Cover: Varanus obor Varanus obor is the most recent species of monitor lizard to be described from Indonesia. Discovered by Weijola and Sweet (2010. A new melanistic species of monitor [Reptilia: Squa- mata: Varanidae] from Sanana Island, Indone- sia. Zootaxa 2434: 17-32.), V. obor also repre- sents the most recently described member of the V. indicus complex. Data and observations on its natural history and ecology are included within the species description. The specimens depicted on the cover and inset of this issue were photographed by Valter Wei- jola on Sanana Island, Maluku, Indonesia on 28 March and 3 April 2009. The specimen depicted on the cover and to the left was observed around 1600 h in a coastal Sago area of northeastern Sanana. The specimen depicted below was first observed foraging in coastal vegetation, but as- cended a coconut palm when it noticed the ob- server.

Blood samples were taken from male and female lizards. The standard T-lymphocyte cell was cultured at 26°C for 96 h. The mitotic chromosomes were harvested by colchi- cine-hypotonic-fixation-air drying technique. Conventional staining, Ag-NOR banding and C-banding techniques were applied to stain the chromosome with 20% Giemsa’s solution. The results showed that the number of dip- loid chromosome was 2n=40, while the fundamental number (NF) was 54 in males and 55 in females. The types of macrochromosomes were 4 large metacentric, 4 small metacentric, 6 small submetacentric, 2 small telocentric macrochromosomes and 24 microchromosomes. The Z chromosome is the small telocentric chromosome, while the W chromosome is the small metacentric chromosome.

  • Varanus Doreanus) in Australia
    BIAWAK Journal of Varanid Biology and Husbandry Volume 11 Number 1 ISSN: 1936-296X On the Cover: Varanus douarrha The individuals depicted on the cover and inset of this issue represent a recently redescribed species of monitor lizard, Varanus douarrha (Lesson, 1830), which origi- nates from New Ireland, in the Bismark Archipelago of Papua New Guinea. Although originally discovered and described by René Lesson in 1830, the holotype was lost on its way to France when the ship it was traveling on became shipwrecked at the Cape of Good Hope. Since then, without a holotype for comparitive studies, it has been assumed that the monitors on New Ireland repre- sented V. indicus or V. finschi. Recent field investiga- tions by Valter Weijola in New Ireland and the Bismark Archipelago and phylogenetic analyses of recently col- lected specimens have reaffirmed Lesson’s original clas- sification of this animal as a distinct species. The V. douarrha depicted here were photographed by Valter Weijola on 17 July and 9 August 2012 near Fis- soa on the northern coast of New Ireland. Both individu- als were found basking in coconut groves close to the beach. Reference: Weijola, V., F. Kraus, V. Vahtera, C. Lindqvist & S.C. Donnellan. 2017.

  • Abstract Lateral Tracheal And
    ABSTRACT LATERAL TRACHEAL AND ESOPHAGEAL DISPLACEMENT IN AVIALAE AND MORPHOLOGICAL IMPLICATIONS FOR THEROPODA (DINOSAURIA: SAURISCHIA) Jeremy J. Klingler, M.S. Department of Biological Sciences Northern Illinois University, 2015 Virginia L. Naples and Reed P. Scherer, Co-directors This research examines the evolution, phylogenetic distribution, and functional explanations for a peculiar and often overlooked character seen in birds, herein called tracheal and esophageal displacement. Of special interest to this study is examining whether the trait was present in non-avian theropod dinosaurs. This study found that essentially all birds are characterized by a laterally displaced trachea and/or esophagus. The displacement may occur gradually along the neck, or it may happen immediately upon exiting the oropharynx. Displacement of these organs is the result of a heavily modified neck wherein muscles that create mobility restrictions in lizards, alligators, and mammals (e.g., m. episternocleidomastoideus, m. omohyoideus, and m. sternohyoideus) no longer substantially restrict positions in birds. Rather, these muscles are modified, which may assist with making tracheal movements. An exceptionally well-preserved fossil theropod, Scipionyx samniticus, proved to be paramount. Its in situ tracheal and esophageal positions and detailed preservation (showing the hallmarks of displacement including rotation, obliquity, a strong angle, and a dorsal position in a caudad region of the neck) demonstrate that at least some theropods were characterized by

It also serves as a compact record of your African journey for future reference that hopefully sparks interest in other wildlife spheres when you return home or when travelling elsewhere on our fragile planet. Although always exciting to see, especially for the first-time Africa visitor, once you move beyond the cliché of the ‘Big Five’ you will soon realise that our wilderness areas offer much more than certain flagship animal species. Africa’s large mammals are certainly a big attraction that one never tires of, but it’s often the smaller mammals, diverse birdlife and incredible reptiles that draw one back again and again for another unparalleled visit. Seeing a breeding herd of elephant for instance will always be special but there is a certain thrill in seeing a Lichtenstein’s hartebeest, cheetah or a Lilian’s lovebird – to name but a few. As a globally discerning traveller, look beyond the obvious, and challenge yourself to learn as much about all wildlife aspects and the ecosystems through which you will travel on your safari.

  • Care of the Savannah Monitor
    Client Education—Savannah Monitor Care of the Savannah Monitor The Savannah monitor (Varanus exanthematicus) is native to the savannahs of eastern and southern Africa. In the wild these monitors are scavengers covering large distances as they search for small prey items. Savannah monitors in the pet trade are either wild-caught or captive-raised. Savannah monitors belong to the family Varanidae family, which includes some of the largest lizard species in the world such as the Komodo dragon and Nile monitor. Although the Savannah monitor is small compared to many members of this family, pet Savannah monitors can range from 3 to 6 feet in length, with their tail comprising almost half of total body length. With proper care, Savannah monitors can live up to 10 or 15 years. Savannah monitors are not recommended for novice reptile enthusiasts since recreation of required habitat and diet can be challenging. Diet Savannah Monitors require a high protein diet. Offer gut-loaded insects such as large crickets, superworms, king mealworms, silkworms, grasshoppers, cockroaches, as well as crayfish and other low-fat foods like cooked egg whites or Egg beaters®. Waxworms should only be offered occasionally, as they are high in fat. Pre-killed mice or rats can be offered, but only occasionally to reduce the risk of obesity. Dust the non-breeding adult’s diet with a calcium carbonate or calcium gluconate supplement once weekly. Calcium supplements should be devoid or low in phosphorus with a minimum calcium: phosphorus ratio of 2:1. Avoid products containing Vitamin D as this can lead to toxicity.

  • BIAWAK Quarterly Journal of Varanid Biology and Husbandry
    BIAWAK Quarterly Journal of Varanid Biology and Husbandry Volume 5 Number 3 ISSN: 1936-296X On the Cover: Varanus komodoensis The Varanus komodoensis depicted on the cover and inset of this issue was photographed by Jeremy Holden on Rinca Island in late July 2011 during the making of a film for National Geographic Channel on Homo floresiensis and Komodo dragons. Unlike the mainland Flores population, the dragons on Rinca, although still dangerous on occasion, are now accepting of humans and can be approached to within meters. The photograph on the cover and to the left shows one of the Komodo National Park rangers luring a dragon with a dead fish. A number of dragons visit the park head quarters, occasionally menacing kitchen staff and even attacking rangers - a notorious incident in 2009 saw a dragon climb in to the park ticket booth and bite a ranger on the arm as he struggled to escape through the window. These animals are often co-opted into appearing in TV documentaries, as was the case with the dragon in these photographs. Jeremy Holden is a 45-year-old photographer, naturalist and explorer. For the past 25 years he has been traveling the world in search of wild places and mysterious creatures. In 1994 he began working with the British conservation organization Fauna & Flora International to help document and preserve some of Southeast Asia’s most threatened ecosystems. During his field research he developed camera trapping techniques which he has used all over Asia to document rare and cryptic animals, especially those in tropical rainforests.
