Methodology: Surveys were conducted in different Rivers including the buffer zone of Dampa Tiger Reserve during the period of November, 2013 to May, 2014 and October, 2019. Fishes were caught using different fishing nets and gears. Collected fish specimens were identified to the lowest possible taxon using taxonomic keys. Specimens were deposited to the Pachhunga University College Museum of Fishes (PUCMF) and some specimens to Zoological Survey of India (ZSI) Kolkata. Shannon-Wiener diversity index was calculated. Results: A total of 50 species belonging to 6 orders, 18 families and 34 genera were collected. The order Cypriniformes dominated the collections comprising 50% of the total fish species collected. The survey resulted in the description of 2 new fishOnline species, viz. Pethia rutila and Channa Copy aurantipectoralis; 2 new records from India viz., Badis rhabdotus and Psilorhynchus rahmani; one new record from Mizoram viz., Dermogenys sp. and two new records from the Karnaphuli drainage viz., Garra nigricollis and Schistura paucireticulata. The result revealed high diversity of fish species with diversity index of 3.78. Interpretation: The high ichthyofaunal diversity was observed, in this study, revealed the importance of the Dampa Tiger Reserve. The protected area could be important for conservation and management of fish diversity in the region, especially for resident and threatened species.

    Pseudolaguvia Virgulata, from Mizoram, India

    http://sciencevision.info Sci Vis 10 (2), 73 Research Report April-June, 2010 ISSN 0975-6175 On the new catfish, Pseudolaguvia virgulata, from Mizoram, India Lalramliana Department of Zoology, Pachhunga University College, Mizoram University, Aizawl 796001, India A new species of catfish was recently identi- fied from some major rivers of Mizoram. Heok Hee Ng and Lalramliana named the new catfish Pseudolaguvia virgulata, after its distinctively striped colour pattern (virgulata = “striped” in Latin). Besides its distinctive colour pattern, which consists of pale stripes running along the entire length of the body, a pale y-shaped marking on the head and brown stripes running through the caudal fin lobes, the new catfish also differs from congeners in other characters. These in- clude: head width 21.2–24.4% standard length; pectoral-fin length 28.5–29.1% standard length; length of dorsal-fin base 17.2–19.9% standard length; dorsal-spine length 21.5–24.0% standard length; serrated anterior edge of dorsal spine; thoracic adhesive apparatus reaching beyond base of last pectoral-fin ray; body depth at anus 14.5–17.4% standard length; length of adipose- fin base 12.9–15.0% standard length; caudal peduncle length 18.2–20.2% standard length; caudal peduncle depth 7.8–9.7 % standard length; snout length 48.0–54.9% head length; interorbital distance 29.3–35.2% head length; 29 –30 vertebrae. Pseudolaguvia virgulata was collected from river system, one of the three rivers that form clear, shallow, moderately flowing streams with the Ganges Delta. a predominantly sandy bottom.

During the study a total of 3,555 no of individuals of 189 species of birds belonging to 43 families were recorded. The family Muscicapidae represented the highest species composition with 28 species followed by family Timaliidae and of MZU campus and its adjacent area, 31 (16.4%) species are winter visitors, 15 (7.9%) species are summer visitor, and two species namely, Hooded pitta (Pitta sordid) and Forest wagtail (Dendronanthus indicus) are passer migrants. The variation calculated was 3.286 and species evenness index was 0.62. The detailed of avian fauna of campus recoded and the need of conservation actions are discussed in length.

Males courted virgins (presumably receptive) and gravid (presumably unreceptive) females. Starting copulations or copulation attempts, the male swims alongside the female, rapidly bends his body and flicks his genital region towards the female urogenital aperture. Distinction between cooperative copulations, sneak copulations and copulation attempts is nearly impossible due to the rapidity of the process. However, some indirect evidence is given by the receptivity state of the female (non-receptive, but also otherwise reluctant females may attack males) and her cooperative behaviour. Presumably receptive females did not escape and occasionally appeared to tilt their genital opening towards the male’s genital. We were not able to visualize the immediate physical contact of mates with the technique
