  • 93 REPTILES of the ALDERMEN ISLANDS By
    93 REPTILES OF THE ALDERMEN ISLANDS by D.R. Towns* and B.W. Haywardt SUMMARY Six species of reptile are recorded from the Aldermen Islands after a visit to all of the islands in the group in May, 1972. They are: the geckos Hoplodactylus pacificus and H, duvauceli; the skinks Leiolopisma oliveri, L. smithi and L. suteri, and the tuatara, Sphenodon punctatus. No reptiles were found on Middle, Half and Hernia Islands but they were abundant on the three largest rat-free islands (Ruamahua-iti, Ruamahua-nui and Hongiora). INTRODUCTION One of us (B.W.H.) collected and noted reptiles seen on the islands during a visit in May, 1972, whilst the senior author (D.R.T.) identified specimens and commented on their occurrence and taxonomy. The party was based on Ruamahua-iti (Fig. I.) and consequently the most detailed collection and observation was made on this island. Two day-trips were made to Middle Island, and one day visits to each of Hongiora, Ruamahua-nui, Half and Hernia Islands were also made. PREVIOUS WORK In 1843, Rev. Wade was shipwrecked on Ruamahua-iti. He commented on the "iguana-like lizards" (no doubt tuataras), and since then there has only been one published report of reptiles on these islands. This was included in a survey by Sladden and Falla (1928), who recorded a skink species {"Lygosoma Smithii"), geckos ("Dactylocnemis" sp.) and tuataras (Sphenodon punctatus). Over the past twenty-five years a number of parties of Internal Affairs Dept. Officers have visited the group and recorded tuataras seen, though no specific study of the reptiles has been attempted.

Raptor electrocution is a known source of eagle mortality in the United States (Franson et al. 1995, Millsap et al. 2004, APLIC 2006, Lehman et al. 2007, Lehman et al. 2010). In particular, Golden Eagles are electrocuted more than any other raptor in North America; Lehman et al. (2007) noted Golden Eagles accounted for 50 – 93% of all reported mortalities of raptor electrocutions. Eagles often come into contact with non-APLIC compliant electric transmission poles. These poles are often responsible for the high incidence of eagle mortality, especially in open habitat devoid of natural perches. Specific utility poles and line spans in need of retrofit due to known mortalities of eagles and other large raptors will be reviewed by the Service and selected for retrofit based on criteria specified below.

  • Multi-National Conservation of Alligator Lizards
    MULTI-NATIONAL CONSERVATION OF ALLIGATOR LIZARDS: APPLIED SOCIOECOLOGICAL LESSONS FROM A FLAGSHIP GROUP by ADAM G. CLAUSE (Under the Direction of John Maerz) ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is defined by unprecedented human influence on the biosphere. Integrative conservation recognizes this inextricable coupling of human and natural systems, and mobilizes multiple epistemologies to seek equitable, enduring solutions to complex socioecological issues. Although a central motivation of global conservation practice is to protect at-risk species, such organisms may be the subject of competing social perspectives that can impede robust interventions. Furthermore, imperiled species are often chronically understudied, which prevents the immediate application of data-driven quantitative modeling approaches in conservation decision making. Instead, real-world management goals are regularly prioritized on the basis of expert opinion. Here, I explore how an organismal natural history perspective, when grounded in a critique of established human judgements, can help resolve socioecological conflicts and contextualize perceived threats related to threatened species conservation and policy development. To achieve this, I leverage a multi-national system anchored by a diverse, enigmatic, and often endangered New World clade: alligator lizards. Using a threat analysis and status assessment, I show that one recent petition to list a California alligator lizard, Elgaria panamintina, under the US Endangered Species Act often contradicts the best available science.

  • Changes to CITES Species Listings
    NOTICE TO THE WILDLIFE IMPORT/EXPORT COMMUNITY December 21, 2016 Subject: Changes to CITES Species Listings Background: Party countries of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) meet approximately every two years for a Conference of the Parties. During these meetings, countries review and vote on amendments to the listings of protected species in CITES Appendix I and Appendix II. Such amendments become effective 90 days after the last day of the meeting unless Party countries agree to delay implementation. The most recent Conference of the Parties (CoP 17) was held in Johannesburg, South Africa, September 24 – October 4, 2016. Action: Except as noted below, the amendments to CITES Appendices I and II that were adopted at CoP 17, will be effective on January 2, 2017. Any specimens of these species imported into, or exported from, the United States on or after January 2, 2017 will require CITES documentation as specified under the amended listings. The import, export, or re-export of shipments of these species that are accompanied by CITES documents reflecting a pre-January 2 listing status or that lack CITES documents because no listing was previously in effect must be completed by midnight (local time at the point of import/export) on January 1, 2017. Importers and exporters can find the official revised CITES appendices on the CITES website. Species Added to Appendix I . Abronia anzuetoi (Alligator lizard) . Abronia campbelli (Alligator lizard) . Abronia fimbriata (Alligator lizard) . Abronia frosti (Alligator lizard) . Abronia meledona (Alligator lizard) . Cnemaspis psychedelica (Psychedelic rock gecko) .
