TAHITI.2016 the Best of the TUOMOTU Archipelago MAY 15-25, 2016
TAHITI.2016 The Best of the TUOMOTU Archipelago MAY 15-25, 2016 If you have thought of warm crystalline South Pacific Ocean, little sand islets with coconut palms swaying down to the waterline and water to blue it appears electric? Very few of us are immune to this sirens call of French Polynesia’s image – real or imagined - and so these celebrated gems of the South Pacific have become a crossroads for dreamers, adventurers and escapist sharing a common wanderlust. We count ourselves among these folk… following in the wake of Magellan, Cook and Wallis, but by means easier than they could have ever imagined. As a diver, there is also something special beneath the azure surface that beckons, something never painted by Gauguin. In fact, the far-flung waters around French Polynesia are some of the SHARK-iest in the world… and the high voltage diving serves up the kind excitement not every paradise can deliver. The expedition is scheduled for MAY 15-25, a 10 day itinerary starting in the famed atoll of Rangiroa and weather permitting include Tikehau, Apataki, Toau and will end the journey in the stunning atoll of Fakarava. We may also get a chance to stop at a couple of others along the way. The diving is off tenders that transport us to the sites where strong currents can be present. The thrill is not only to witness what gets drawn to these spots but also to ride the crystalline currents without fighting them. Advanced diver and Nitrox certification required to join this trip.

(Gallicolumba Erythroptera) Discovered at Rangiroa
SHORT NOTE Polynesian Ground Dove (GaUicolumba erythroptera) discovered at Rangiroa Atoll, Tuamotu Islands (Polynesia) ABSTRACT In 1990-91, a previously unknown population of the Polynesian Ground Dove was discovered on Rangiroa Atoll in the Tuamotu Is, eastern Polynesia. This apparently isolated population was estimated at only 12-20 birds. Two species of ground dove, the Polynesian Ground Dove (Gallicolumba eythroptera) and the Marquesas Ground Dove (G. nrbescens) are found today in eastern Polynesia: Since the records of European naturalists at the end of the 18th century (Holyoak & Thibault 1984, Thibault 1988), their breeding range has been rapidly declining, although this process had begun when Polynesians arrived (Steadman 1988). Because of their small numbers and patchy distribution, both species are now threatened (Collar & Andrew 1988). The wide but discontinuous range, as well as the numerous recorded local extinctions, suggests that Polynesian Ground Doves were formerly widespread in the Tuamotu Is. The discovery of a new locality for G. eythroptera provides the opportunity to discuss its overall distribution, its variation and reasons for its decline. Rangiroa is an atoll in the northern Tuamotu Is (1S005'S and 147O58' W). It is composed of a ring of about 200 islets with areas ranging from about 0.5 to 200 ha. The total area of Rangiroa Atoll is about 79 km2. Half the islets have only sand or coral rocks and no vegetation. We visited Rangiroa in 15-21January 1990 and 16-21 April 1991 and surveyed 20 islets in total (10%). rn @ Q 6' FIGURE 1 - Distribution of Gallicolumba erythroptera (from Holyoak & Thibault 1984, Steadman 1989 and this work).

Tuamotu Archipelago, French Polynesia)
PART I. ENVIRONMENT AND BIOTA OF THE TIKEHAU ATOLL (TUAMOTU ARCHIPELAGO, FRENCH POLYNESIA) A. INTES AND B. CAILLART THE REGIONAL BACKGROUND The islands of French Polynesia are scattered throughout a considerable oceanic area located on the eastern boundary of the Indo-Pacific Province. This area stretches from 134"28' W (Temoe Island) to 154"401W longitude (Scilly Island), and from 7"50' S (Motu one Island) to 27"36' S latitude (Xapa Island). Out of the 118 islands constituting French Polynesia, 35 are high volcanic islands and 83 are low-relief islands or atolls. Altogether, the territory of French Polynesia represents an area of 4000 km2 of dry land, 12,000 km2 of lagoonal water and a huge Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) covering 5,500,000 km2 of oceanic water (Gabrie and Salvat, 1985). French Polynesia is divided into five archipelagos all oriented parallel to a northwest- southeast axis (Fig. 1). These are the Society archipelago, the Tuamotu archipelago, the Austral archipelago, the Marquesas archipelago and the Gambier archipelago. The Tuamotu archipelago stretches over a distance of 1800 km. Its 76 atolls cover a total area of 13,500 km2 of which 600 km2 are dry land. GEOLOGY OF THE TUAMOTU ARCHEPELAGO As figured by Montaggioni (1985), the Tuamotu atolls cap the top of cone-like volcanoes which rise steeply from the floor of a huge ridge forming wide shelves ranging in depth from 1,500 to 3,000 rn. Geomorphological and geochronological evidences support the fact that the formation of the Tuamotu chain is much older than that of other neighboring islands of French Polynesia.
