Mahavidyalaya Kavathe Mahankal, Sangli (M.S) India Email: [email protected] Abstract: The Sanctuary area is home to several species, rich endemic flora and harbors different species of fauna. Amphibians are one of the most ubiquitous groups of predators in the animal kingdom commonly found in all terrestrial and many aquatic ecosystems. Baveli and Talegaon region is the part of Northern Western Ghats of Maharashtra. So far no body has worked out or studied the amphibian Diversity from Baveli, Talegaon region of Radhanagari Wildlife Sanctuary and hence we have decide to explore the amphibian diversity from this area. Most of the area is dense semi-evergreen forest with a wide range of flora. The area prevails humid and moderate climate and heavy rainfall This high diversity of habitats responsible for amphibian diversity. For the present study the survey of amphibians was carried out during rainy season (late May to late October). The presence of various species of frogs were noted on the bases of actual sighting, presence of egg clusters (for same species), on their calls. The specimens were obtained along the streams and through patches of forest during day light and early night hours. The most distinct feature of this area is the presence of numerous barons rocky and laetrile plateau called as sadas.

  • Minnows and Molecules: Resolving the Broad and Fine-Scale Evolutionary Patterns of Cypriniformes
    Minnows and molecules: resolving the broad and fine-scale evolutionary patterns of Cypriniformes by Carla Cristina Stout A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama May 7, 2017 Keywords: fish, phylogenomics, population genetics, Leuciscidae, sequence capture Approved by Jonathan W. Armbruster, Chair, Professor of Biological Sciences and Curator of Fishes Jason E. Bond, Professor and Department Chair of Biological Sciences Scott R. Santos, Professor of Biological Sciences Eric Peatman, Associate Professor of Fisheries, Aquaculture, and Aquatic Sciences Abstract Cypriniformes (minnows, carps, loaches, and suckers) is the largest group of freshwater fishes in the world. Despite much attention, previous attempts to elucidate relationships using molecular and morphological characters have been incongruent. The goal of this dissertation is to provide robust support for relationships at various taxonomic levels within Cypriniformes. For the entire order, an anchored hybrid enrichment approach was used to resolve relationships. This resulted in a phylogeny that is largely congruent with previous multilocus phylogenies, but has much stronger support. For members of Leuciscidae, the relationships established using anchored hybrid enrichment were used to estimate divergence times in an attempt to make inferences about their biogeographic history. The predominant lineage of the leuciscids in North America were determined to have entered North America through Beringia ~37 million years ago while the ancestor of the Golden Shiner (Notemigonus crysoleucas) entered ~20–6 million years ago, likely from Europe. Within Leuciscidae, the shiner clade represents genera with much historical taxonomic turbidity. Targeted sequence capture was used to establish relationships in order to inform taxonomic revisions for the clade.

Fear! Art, childhood stories, movies, and mythology have always depicted them as evil, inducing more fear. The reducing population of snakes—from rich green forest due to farming, the industrial revolution, the skin trade for bags, urbanization, road kills and hunting—the animal kingdom’s most persecuted group! Here is an attempt to look at the snake beyond its first impression. The beauty of it, the color, the pattern. The digital art is of the innocent non- venomous Wolf Snake which is usually misunderstood and killed by humans just because it resembles the Common Krait.
