  • A Case from Lamabagar Village of Middle Nepal
    102 NJ: NUTA Biodiversity Resources and Livelihoods: A Case from Lamabagar Village of Middle Nepal Uttam Sagar Shrestha Lecturer, Padhma Kanya Campus Bagbazar, Kathmandu Email for correspondence: [email protected] Abstract The biodiversity resources are integral part of the livelihoods of residents of Lamabagar Village Development Committee. Over the last three decades, the number of species has been decreasing due to infrastructure developments- roads, hydropower’s. Reportedly, 277 species of plants 24 species of mammals and 37 species of birds were recorded in 2003 has come down to 244 species of plants, 20 species of mammals and 32 species of birds only in the present study. It has led mis-balance between biodiversity conservation and livelihood strategy. The present paper tries to discuss on overview of plant and animal diversity between 2003-2012, common relationship between bio-diversity resources and their implication in the livelihood, conservation issues and their threats. The findings of the work are based on the fieldwork carried out field survey between 2003 and 2012. Key words: Biodiversity, development interventions, plant species, mammals and agriculture. Introduction Biological Diversity in Nepal is closely linked to livelihoods of many people and their economic development, and touches upon agricultural productivity and sustainability, human health and nutrition, indigenous knowledge, gender equity, building materials, climate, water resources and aesthetic and cultural well being of the society (MOFSC, 2002). Therefore, in addition to terrestrial biodiversity, it also covers marine and other aquatic biodiversity as well. As such, biodiversity means richness and variety of living things in the world as a whole or any location within it.

  • FRESHWATER CYANOPHYCEAE from EAST NEPAL Department Of
    Bangladesh J. Plant Taxon. 17(2): 121-139, 2010 (December) © 2010 Bangladesh Association of Plant Taxonomists FRESHWATER CYANOPHYCEAE FROM EAST NEPAL 1 2 SHIVA KUMAR RAI AND PRADEEP KUMAR MISRA Department of Botany, Post Graduate Campus, Tribhuvan University, Biratnagar, Nepal Keywords: Algae; Cyanophyceae; Himalaya; East Nepal. Abstract A total 51 taxa of cyanophycean algae belonging to 28 genera have been enumerated from different lotic and lentic freshwater bodies of east Nepal during October, 2002 to June, 2004. Of these, 19 taxa were new additions to the cyanophycean flora of Nepal and 39 were new records for the study area. Coelosphaerium Nägeli, Fischerella (Bornet et Flahault) Gomont and Myxosarcina Printz were the first time describing genera for the country. Oscillatoria Vaucher ex Gomont has the maximum species observed in the study and were frequent in most of the samples too. The distribution pattern of cyanophycean algae according to different topography were as Terai>Mountain> Himalaya. Introduction Eastern Development Region (26°20′-28°08′N and 86°08′-88°15′E) lies in the eastern part of Nepal between Sikkim and Darjeeling in the east, Janakpur zone of Nepal in the west, Bihar in the south and Tibet of China in the north occupying an area of about 28,456 sq. km. On the basis of topography, it is divided into 3 geographical regions from south to north as Terai with hot and humid sub-tropical climate, Mountain with warm and cold temperate climate and Himalaya with Alpine and Tundra types of climate. In general, its average winter (January) temperature ranges from below -30ºC to 18ºC but in summer (July), the southern belt, i.e., Terai plain experiences very hot weather with average temperature from 27ºC to 30ºC.
