E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. We report nine new records of snakes from Hoa Binh Province based on a reptile collection from Thuong Tien, Hang Kia-Pa Co, Ngoc Son-Ngo Luong nature reserves, and Tan Lac District, comprising six species of Colubri- dae (Dryocalamus davisonii, Euprepiophis mandarinus, Lycodon futsingensis, L. meridionalis, Sibynophis collaris and Sinonatrix aequifasciata), one species of Pareatidae (Pareas hamptoni) and two species of Viperidae (Protobothrops mu- crosquamatus and Trimeresurus gumprechti). In addition, we provide an updated list of 43 snake species from Hoa Binh Province. The snake fauna of Hoa Binh contains some species of conservation concern with seven species listed in the Governmental Decree No. 32/2006/ND-CP (2006), nine species listed in the Vietnam Red Data Book (2007), and three species listed in the IUCN Red List (2018).

It remains unclear how successful members of that colony were at overwintering and if they established new colonies this spring. Therefore, you’re very unlikely to encounter an Asian giant hornet. However, should you find a colony, don’t approach them as their stings can be serious and can even lead to death. Beekeepers are the most likely to encounter Asian giant hornets and should keep aware of the states in which this hornet has been Asian giant hornets have bright yellow heads and a distinctive found.

Insect and Disease Observations — May 2020
Vermont Forest Health Insect and Disease Observations — May 2020 Department of Forests, Parks & Recreation May 2020 vtforest.com Weather Recap This month’s weather started off cold and wet, with snowfall occurring in most parts of the state through mid-May. Compared to last year, this month was warmer and dryer than May of 2019. Statewide tem- peratures averaged 52.9°F, which was 2 degrees warmer than May of last year. Statewide, precipitation averaged 2.93 inches, which is 2.73 inches less than May of last year. Minimum relative humidity (RH) values for the Northeast Kingdom were below normal. On May 23rd and 24th, the low RH at the Nulhegan remote automatic weather station was 12%, and Temperature and precipitation departure from the low RH in Montgomery and Walden normal.

Soil moisture drought indices are approach- ing mid-summer values and large dead fuels are at the seasonal minimum. This spring has delayed green- up in most parts of the state, with many species breaking buds later in the month. Photo credit: FPR Staff. Sugar maple phenology at our long-term monitoring site in Underhill had observed bud break on May 11th, with full leaf-out following two weeks later on May 26th. Each date is 8 days later than the long-term average. Some parts of the state experienced frost on May 11th and 12th, which damaged understory sugar maple. -

This document is an update of the information submitted in 2017 in response to Notification 2017/031. The Australian Government is committed to the sustainable use of fisheries resources and the conservation of marine ecosystems and biodiversity. In particular, we are committed to the conservation of shark species in Australian waters and on the high seas. The Australian Government manages some fisheries directly, others are managed by state and territory governments. The Australian Government also regulates the export of commercially harvested marine species. Australia cooperates internationally to protect sharks by implementing our Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) obligations, and by working with regional fisheries management organisations on the management of internationally straddling and highly migratory stocks. For more information on Australia’s fisheries management and international cooperation see the Australian Government Department of the Environment and Energy’s fisheries webpages at http://www.environment.gov.au/marine/fisheries. -

Dipper Occasional Paper of the IUCN Species Survival Commission No. 25 IUCN The World Conservation Union Donors to the SSC Conservation Communications Programme and Elasmobranch Biodiversity, Conservation and Management: Proceedings of the International Seminar and Workshop, Sabah, Malaysia, July 1997 The IUCN/Species Survival Commission is committed to communicate important species conservation information to natural resource managers, decision-makers and others whose actions affect the conservation of biodiversity. The SSC's Action Plans, Occasional Papers, newsletter Species and other publications are supported by a wide variety of generous donors including: The Sultanate of Oman established the Peter Scott IUCN/SSC Action Plan Fund in 1990. The Fund supports Action Plan development and implementation. To date, more than 80 grants have been made from the Fund to SSC Specialist Groups. The SSC is grateful to the Sultanate of Oman for its confidence in and support for species conservation worldwide. The Council of Agriculture (COA), Taiwan has awarded major grants to the SSC's Wildlife Trade Programme and Conservation Communications Programme. This support has enabled SSC to continue its valuable technical advisory service to the Parties to CITES as well as to the larger global conservation community. Among other responsibilities, the COA is in charge of matters concerning the designation and management of nature reserves, conservation of wildlife and their habitats, conservation of natural landscapes, coordination of law enforcement efforts as well as promotion of conservation education, research and international cooperation.
