    Conservation Status and Population Density of Himalayan Serow (Capricornis sumatraensis) in Annapurna Conservation Area of Nepal Achyut Aryal1 Abstract Himalayan Serow ‘Capricornis sumatraensis’ population is isolated in a small patch of the southern part of Annapurna Conservation Area (ACA) with a population density of 1.17 individual/km2 and a population sex ratio of 1:1.6(Male: Female). A strong correlation was found between population (y) and pellets density (x) (y=0.011x-0.2619, R2-0.97). The major problems in the Serow habitat were habitat fragmentation & land use change, conflict between predator and villager, livestock grazing and poaching. The study was successful in providing information on the present status of Himalayan Serow in the ACA. cGgk'0f{ ;+/If0f If]qsf] blIf0fL efudf ;fgf] ´'08df ! .!& k|lt ju { ls=ld= hg3gTj / ! :! .^ (k'lnË::qLlnË) sf] cgkftdf' 5l§Psf' ] ;fgf ] o;sf ] hg;Vof+ PSnf?kdf] /xsf] ] 5 . hg;ªVof\ / jsfnfsf{} ] 3gTjlar 3lx/f ] ;DaGw /xsf] ] kfOof] . lxdfnog l;/f]sf] ;/+If0fsf d'Vo ;d:ofx?df jf;:yfg 6'lqmg' / hldgsf] k|of]udf abnfj, ufpFn] ljrsf] åGå, ufO{j:t' rl/r/0f / u}/sfg'gL lzsf/ x'g\ . lxdfnog l;/f] ;+/If0fsf nflu ;+/If0f lzIff, hgtfdf´ o;af/] r]tgf hufpg] sfo{qmd cfjZos b]lvPsf 5g\ . of] cWoogn] cGgk'0f{ If]qdf /xsf] lxdfnog l;/f]sf] cj:yfjf/] hfgsf/L lbg ;kmn ePsf] 5 .

    Assessement of Biodiversity and NTFP Status in BCI Project Areas

    APPENDIX 4 Assessment of Biodiversity Values in BCI project Areas Part I. Introduction of BCI project area and its biodiversity status 1.1. Physical characteristics BCI area is situated in the Priority Central Annamite Landscape ( Landscape CA1)( or Central Truong Son Landscape), it is a geomorphological entity within the Greater Truong Son Global 200 Ecoregion of the FLMEC of Greater Annamite Ecoregion in Global 200 of WWF . were provisionally delineated at the Ecoregion-based Conservation in the Forests of the Mekong Biological Assessment Workshop, held inPhnom Penh in March 2000. And Landcape CA1 will be introduced as follows: Priority Landscape CA1 is. The priority landscape encompasses the central section of the main Annamite chain, together with associated foothills to the west and east (Map 1). The boundaries of Priority Landscape CA1 were delineated according to geomorphological criteria in preference to biogeographical criteria for a number of reasons. Firstly, while the ranges of a number of taxa broadly define the priority landscape, there is insufficient congruence in their known distributions for the boundaries to be precisely delineated. Secondly, there is insufficient information available about the known distribution and habitat requirements of taxa that might be used to delineate the priority landscape. Thirdly, the concept of a geomorphologically delineated landscape is more meaningful to decision makers and donors. Finally, a geomorphologically delineated landscape is not constrained by anthropogenic changes in habitat condition and extent, and, therefore, presents a vision for the future and an objective for habitat restoration efforts. The area referred to as the Greater Truong Son in this document was considered by Vidal (1960) to comprise parts of two distinct geomorphological units: the Annamite chain, stretching from Xieng Khoang province in Lao P.D.R.

    Status of Selected Mammal Species in North Myanmar

    ORYX VOL 32 NO 3 JULY 1998 Status of selected mammal species in North Myanmar Alan Rabinowitz and Saw Tun Khaing During 1996 and 1997, data on the status of selected mammal species were collected from a remote region of North Myanmar. Of the 21 species discussed in this paper, the black muntjac, stone marten and blue sheep are new records for the country. One species, the leaf muntjac, has never been described. At least three species that once inhabited the region - elephant, gaur and Sumatran rhinoceros - are no longer present, and the tiger has been nearly extirpated. Himalayan species that are declining elsewhere, such as takin, red goral and red panda, are still relatively abundant despite hunting pressures. Musk deer are in serious decline. The wolf, while not positively confirmed, may be an occasional inhabitant of North Myanmar.

    Hippotragus equinus – Roan Antelope authorities as there may be no significant genetic differences between the two. Many of the Roan Antelope in South Africa are H. e. cottoni or equinus x cottoni (especially on private properties). Assessment Rationale This charismatic antelope exists at low density within the assessment region, occurring in savannah woodlands and grasslands. Currently (2013–2014), there are an observed 333 individuals (210–233 mature) existing on nine formally protected areas within the natural distribution range. Adding privately protected subpopulations and an Cliff & Suretha Dorse estimated 0.8–5% of individuals on wildlife ranches that may be considered wild and free-roaming, yields a total mature population of 218–294 individuals. Most private Regional Red List status (2016) Endangered subpopulations are intensively bred and/or kept in camps C2a(i)+D*†‡ to exclude predators and to facilitate healthcare. Field National Red List status (2004) Vulnerable D1 surveys are required to identify potentially eligible subpopulations that can be included in this assessment. Reasons for change Non-genuine: While there was an historical crash in Kruger National Park New information (KNP) of 90% between 1986 and 1993, the subpopulation Global Red List status (2008) Least Concern has since stabilised at c. 50 individuals. Overall, over the past three generations (1990–2015), based on available TOPS listing (NEMBA) Vulnerable data for nine formally protected areas, there has been a CITES listing None net population reduction of c. 23%, which indicates an ongoing decline but not as severe as the historical Endemic Edge of Range reduction.
