Results of the Czechoslovak-Iranian Entomological Expeditions to Iran 1970, 1973 ACTA ENTOMOLOGICA MUSE I NATIONALIS PRAGAE VOL. 43 1990 RESULTS, OF THE CZECHOSLOVAK-IRANIAN ENTOMOLOGICAL EXPEDITIONS TO IRAN 1970, 1973 AND 1977 Heteroptera: Rhopalidae LUDVIK HOBERLANDT and VLADIMiR SVIHLA Department of Entomology, National Museum (Nat. Hist.), Praha Abstract. The fauna of Rhopalidae occurring in Iran consists, for the time being, of 25 species, predominantly of Pa laearctic distribution; in the present paper three species are recorded from Iran for the first time and three another species are given the first exact localities . This paper is based on specimens taken primarily by three expe­ ditions of the National Museum (Nat. Hist.) in Prague to Ir an in 1970, 1973 and 1977. Family Rhopalidae is a less characteristic group of He­ te roptera Inthe fauna of Iran. Twenty five species known in th is territory are predominantly of Palaearctic distribution, most of them are of Me­ diterranean origin , two species t St ictopleurus ribauti Vid. and Agrapho­ pus ( A. ) suturalis Reut.) are Eremian in distribution and six species (Co­ rizomorpha ianouiskui [ak., Corizus jenestella [enestella (Horv.) Bractuj­ carenus lanquidus (Horv.) , Ltmacocarenus curtulus Kirit., Stictopleurus angustus Reut. and Maccevethus corsicus persicus (Jak.) occurr in S. W. Asia or in Soviet Middle Asia. To the 22 species of Rhopalidae previously known from Iran we add Rho palus (R.) conspurcatus (Fieb.) Stictopleurus crassicornis (Lin.) and Chorosoma gracile [os., for the first time, fro m Ir an. In the following species Stictopleurus punctatoneruosus (Goeze), St ictopleurus abutilioti (Rossi) and Agraphopus (A.) lethyerryi Stal we give for the first time, exact localities from Iran.

  • Bam, Iran Earthquake of 26 December 2003, Mw6.5: a Study on the Strong Ground Motions
    13th World Conference on Earthquake Engineering Vancouver, B.C., Canada August 1-6, 2004 Paper No. 8001 BAM, IRAN EARTHQUAKE OF 26 DECEMBER 2003, MW6.5: A STUDY ON THE STRONG GROUND MOTIONS Mehdi ZARE1 SUMMARY The Bam earthquake of 26 December 2003 (Mw6.5) occurred at 01:56:56 (GMT, 05:26:56 local time) around the city of Bam in the southeast of Iran. The Bam earthquake of 26/12/2003 (Mw6.5) has demolished the city of Bam, having a population of about 100000 at the time of the earthquake. The Bam fault - which was mapped before the event on the geological maps - has been reactivated during the 26/12/2003 earthquake. It seems that a length of about 10km (at the surface) of this fault has been reactivated, where it passed exactly from the east of the city of Bam. The fault has a slop towards the west and the foci of the event was located closed to the residential area (almost beneath the city of Bam). This caused a great damage in the macroseismic epicentral zone; however the strong motions have been attenuated very rapidly, specially towards the east-and west (fault normal) direction. The vertical directivity effects caused the amplification of the low frequency motions in the fault-normal direction as well as the greater amplitude of the motion on the vertical direction. INTRODUCTION The Bam earthquake of 26/12/2003 (Mw6.5) demolished the city of Bam in the southeast of Iran (Figure- 1). The earthquake happened at 5:26 am local time when most of the inhabitants were slept, that can be one of the causes of the great life losses.

  • Kuhbanan Phonetic Atlas; the First Linguistic Atlas of Kerman Province
    Journal of Linguistics & Khorasan Dialects Biannual, No.1 /Serial Number.16 (2017) 29 Kuhbanan Phonetic Atlas; the first linguistic Atlas of Kerman Province Hamed Mowlaei Kuhbanani 1 PhD Candidate in Linguistics, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, Iran Dr. Abasali Ahangar Associate Professor in Linguistics, Sistan & Baluchestan University, Zahedan, Iran Received: 20 September 2016 Accepted: 13 September 2017 Extended Abstract 1- Introduction There are both social and geographical differences among dialects of every country. Finding linguistics boundaries, drawing linguistics maps and preparing linguistics Atlases are the most important activities in geographical linguistics. This study intends to introduce the Kuhbanan linguistics Atlas as the first linguistic Atlas of Kerman Province. This Atlas includes the distribution of some Persian linguistics variables of Kuhbanani dialect spoken in Kuhbanan and Khoramdasht regions in Kerman Province. The main purpose is to introduce the linguistic atlases based on the differences of Kuhbanani dialect in these two regions. However, The geographical distribution of some Middle Persian linguistic variables observed in these two regions under investigation also is displayed, too. 2- Methodology As to the methodology of this research, at first, the guide linguistic variables as well as the main one were determined by the free speech and interview of upper 55 years old, uneducated male and female Kuhbanani speakers of 30 villages. Afterwards, a questionnaire and lexical list have been provided and carried out. At last, based on the linguistic data collected, the differences and similarities observed in the distribution of the relevant linguistic variables as well as some remnants of Middle Persian variables in Kuhbanani dialect have been shown through isoglosses on linguistic atlases.

Since the work of J.J. Heckel (1846-1849), the number of valid species has increased significantly and the systematic status of many of the species has changed, and reorganization and updating of the published information has become essential. Here we take the opportunity to provide a new and updated checklist of freshwater fishes of Iran based on literature and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history and new fish collections. This article lists 288 species in 107 genera, 28 families, 22 orders and 3 classes reported from different Iranian basins. However, presence of 23 reported species in Iranian waters needs confirmation by specimens.

Full Length Research Paper Eco-tourism necessity to preserve and maintain endangered species: A case study of mugger crocodile Ali Khaksari Rafsanjani and Mehrdad Karami* Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Allameh Tabataba'i, Shari'ati.Al, Ghol Nabi Avenue, Tehran, Iran. Postal Code: 1544915113 Accepted 28 September, 2019 The geographical study of Iran and the feasibility study of tourism attractions in the country indicated that "eco-tourism" is an apt and unique, but neglected economic resource. Protection of habitation areas is one of the main bases of eco-tourism. In the present research, we investigated the role of eco-tourism to preserve and maintain an animal on the verge of extinction [the mugger crocodile (Crocodylus palustris)]. It is hoped that the Iranian and global environment authorities take the issue into consideration to strive for the preservation of this unique species. This research aims at the development and application of the endangered species in eco-tourism and is based upon deep interviews with the local environment authorities and fields visits. The results indicated that Bahukalat (Gando) protected area, which enjoys national and international attractions, such as the mugger crocodile (C. palustris), Oman sea coast and Gwadar Bay and regional attractions like Bahukalat river, specific customs, local foods and handicrafts, has major importance in regard to tourism development, specially eco-tourism. Key words: Bahukalat (Gando) protected area, endangered species, the mugger crocodile, tourism, eco-tourism.

  • Rare Birds in Iran in the Late 1960S and 1970S
    Podoces, 2008, 3(1/2): 1–30 Rare Birds in Iran in the Late 1960s and 1970s DEREK A. SCOTT Castletownbere Post Office, Castletownbere, Co. Cork, Ireland. Email: [email protected] Received 26 July 2008; accepted 14 September 2008 Abstract: The 12-year period from 1967 to 1978 was a period of intense ornithological activity in Iran. The Ornithology Unit in the Department of the Environment carried out numerous surveys throughout the country; several important international ornithological expeditions visited Iran and subsequently published their findings, and a number of resident and visiting bird-watchers kept detailed records of their observations and submitted these to the Ornithology Unit. These activities added greatly to our knowledge of the status and distribution of birds in Iran, and produced many records of birds which had rarely if ever been recorded in Iran before. This paper gives details of all records known to the author of 92 species that were recorded as rarities in Iran during the 12-year period under review. These include 18 species that had not previously been recorded in Iran, a further 67 species that were recorded on fewer than 13 occasions, and seven slightly commoner species for which there were very few records prior to 1967. All records of four distinctive subspecies are also included. The 29 species that were known from Iran prior to 1967 but not recorded during the period under review are listed in an Appendix. Keywords: Rare birds, rarities, 1970s, status, distribution, Iran. INTRODUCTION Eftekhar, E. Kahrom and J. Mansoori, several of whom quickly became keen ornithologists.

Khuzestan Water and Power Authority. *Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT Karun River is the largest and most watery river in Iran. This river is the longest river which located just inside Iran and Ahvaz Metropolis drinking water supplied from Karun River as well (fa.alalam.ir). Karun River as the main source of water treatment plants in Ahvaz, like most surface waters affected by various contaminants which caused changes in water quality of the river (www.aww.co.ir). Causes such as constructing several dams at upstream river, withdrawal of water from the upstream to the needs of other regions of Iran, exposure of various industries along the river and discharge of industrial and urban sewage into the river, seen that today this river is deteriorating rapidly, qua today is the depth of river reach to 1 m with a high concentration of pollutants (www.tasnimnews.com).

  • Iran's Sunnis Resist Extremism, but for How Long?
    Atlantic Council SOUTH ASIA CENTER ISSUE BRIEF Iran’s Sunnis Resist Extremism, but for How Long? APRIL 2018 SCHEHEREZADE FARAMARZI ome fifteen million of Iran’s eighty million people are Sunni Muslims, the country’s largest religious minority. Politically and economically disadvantaged, these Sunnis receive relatively lit- tle attention compared with other minorities and are concen- Strated in border areas from Baluchistan in the southeast, to Kurdistan in the northwest, to the Persian Gulf in the south. The flare up of tensions between regional rivals Saudi Arabia and Iran over Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Yemen would seem to encourage interest in the state of Iranian Sunnis, if only because the Saudis present them- selves as defenders of the world’s Sunnis, and Iran the self-appointed champion of the Shia cause. So how do Iran’s Sunnis fare in a state where Shia theology governs al- most every aspect of life? How have they been affected by this regional rivalry? Are they stuck between jihadist and other extreme regional Sunni movements on the one hand, and the Shia regime’s aggres- sive policies on the other? Is there a danger that these policies could push some disgruntled Iranian Sunnis toward militancy and terrorism? A tour of Turkmen Sahra in the northeast of Iran near the Caspian Sea, and in Hormozgan on the Persian Gulf in 2015 and 2016 revealed some of the answers. More recent interviews were conducted by phone and in person in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and with European-based experts. “Being a Sunni in Iran means pain, fear, anxiety, restrictions,”1 said a young The Atlantic Council’s South woman in a southern Hormozgan village.

  • Insights Into the Aftershocks and Inter-Seismicity for Some Large Persian Earthquakes
    Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran 26(1): 35 - 48 (2015) http://jsciences.ut.ac.ir University of Tehran, ISSN 1016-1104 Insights into the Aftershocks and Inter-Seismicity for Some Large Persian Earthquakes M. Nemati* Department of Geology, Faculty of Science, Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, Kerman City, Islamic Republic of Iran Earthquake Research Center, Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, Kerman City, Islamic Republic of Iran Received: 8 July 2014 / Revised: 23 September 2014 / Accepted: 14 December 2014 Abstract This paper focuses on aftershocks behavior and seismicity along some co-seismic faults for large earthquakes in Iran. The data of aftershocks and seismicity roughly extracted from both the Institute of Geophysics the University of Tehran (IGUT) and International Seismological Center (ISC) catalogs. Apply some essential methods on 43 large earthquakes data; like the depth, magnitude as well as the aftershock data; resulted knowledge about some relations between earthquake characteristics. We found ~16.5km for deep seated co-seismic fault length for the 2005 Dahouieh Zarand earthquake (MW 6.4) considering the dimension of the main cluster of aftershocks. Moreover, a slightly decrease in aftershocks activity was observed with increase in depth of the mainshocks for some Iranian earthquakes. Also the clustered aftershocks for the 1997 Zirkuh-e Qaen earthquake (MW 7.1) showed a clear decrease in maximum magnitude of the aftershocks per day elapsed from mainshock. Finally, we could explore an anti-correlation between aftershocks distribution and post microseismicity along co-seismic faults for both Dahouieh and Qaen earthquakes. Keywords: Aftershock; Mainshock; Magnitude; Seismicity and Persia. mainshock hypocenter immediately after the Introduction earthquake occurrence.
