ABSTRACTS 44Th Annual Meeting and Symposium Tucson, Arizona February 21–23, 2019
ABSTRACTS 44th Annual Meeting and Symposium Tucson, Arizona February 21–23, 2019 FORTY-FOURTH ANNUAL MEETING AND SYMPOSIUM THE DESERT TORTOISE COUNCIL TUCSON, AZ February 21–23, 2019 ABSTRACTS OF PAPERS AND POSTERS (Abstracts arranged alphabetically by last name of first author) *Speaker, if not the first author listed Long-term Data Collection and Trends of a 130-Acre High Desert Riparian and Upland Preserve in Northwestern Mohave County, Arizona Julie Alpert and Robert Faught Willow Creek Environmental Consulting, LLC, 15857 E. Silver Springs Road, Kingman, Arizona 86401, USA.Phone: 928-692-6501. Email: [email protected] The Willow Creek Riparian Preserve (Preserve) is a privately owned 130-acre site located 30 miles east of Kingman, Arizona. The Preserve was formally established in 2007 with the purchase of 10-acres and an agreement with the eastern adjoining private landowner to add an additional 120-acres. The Preserve location was unfenced and wholly accessible by livestock, off-road vehicle use, and hunting. In October of 2008 the Preserve was fenced with volunteer efforts from the local Rotary Club and Boy Scout Troop 66. Additional financial assistance came through a large discount in the cost of fencing materials from Kingman Ace Hardware. A total of 0.5-linear mile of new wildlife friendly fencing (barbless top wire and 18-inches above-ground bottom wire) was installed along the south and west sides and connected to existing Arizona State Lands cattle allotment fencing. Baseline and on-going studies and data collection have occurred since 2004. These have included small mammal live trapping; chiropteran surveys with the use of Anabat; migratory, breeding, and winter avian surveys; amphibian and reptile surveys; deployment of game cameras; animal track and sign identification and movement patterns; vegetation and plant surveys; and a wetland delineation. -

Phylogenetic Relationships of the Asian Box Turtles of the Genus Cuora Sensu Lato (Reptilia: Bataguridae) Inferred from Mitochondrial DNA Sequences
ZOOLOGICAL SCIENCE 19: 1305–1312 (2002) 2002 Zoological Society of Japan Phylogenetic Relationships of the Asian Box Turtles of the Genus Cuora sensu lato (Reptilia: Bataguridae) Inferred from Mitochondrial DNA Sequences Masanao Honda1*†, Yuichirou Yasukawa1, Ren Hirayama2 and Hidetoshi Ota1 1Tropical Biosphere Research Center, University of the Ryukyus, Nishihara, Okinawa 903-0213, Japan 2Faculty of Information, Teikyo Heisei University, Ichihara, Chiba 290-0193, Japan ABSTRACT—Phylogenetic relationships of the genus Cuora sensu lato (Cuora sensu stricto and Cisto- clemmys) and other testudinoid genera were inferred from variations in 882 base positions of mitochondrial 12S and 16S rRNA genes. Results yielded a robust support to the monophyly of a group (Cuora group) consisting of Cuora sensu lato and the monotypic Pyxidea. Within the Cuora group, the continental Cuora (sensu stricto) and the two subspecies of Ci. flavomarginata constituted two well-supported monophyletic groups. Distinctly small interspecific genetic distances in the former groups suggested that in the continent speciations in Cuora took place much later than the primary divergences in the Cuora group, or speciations in other related genera, such as Mauremys. Our analyses failed to provide a substantial support to the monophyly of any other combinations of taxa within the Cuora group, including Cuora in broad and strict senses, and Cistoclemmys as consisting of Ci. galbinifrons and Ci. flavomarginata. Besides these, our results also suggested the non-monophyly for the Batagurinae and the Geoemydinae, and sister relation- ships of the Bataguridae with Testudinidae rather than with the Emydidae. Key words: Bataguridae, Geoemydinae, Cuora, Cistoclemmys, Pyxidea Cu. amboinensis), Cyclemys Bell, 1834 (type species: Cy. -

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 Staurotypus Turtles and Aves Share the Same Origin of Sex Chromosomes but Evolved Different Types of Heterogametic Sex Determination
The Staurotypus Turtles and Aves Share the Same Origin of Sex Chromosomes but Evolved Different Types of Heterogametic Sex Determination Taiki Kawagoshi1, Yoshinobu Uno1, Chizuko Nishida2, Yoichi Matsuda1,3* 1 Laboratory of Animal Genetics, Department of Applied Molecular Biosciences, Graduate School of Bioagricultural Sciences, Nagoya University, Nagoya, Japan, 2 Department of Natural History Sciences, Faculty of Science, Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan, 3 Avian Bioscience Research Center, Graduate School of Bioagricultural Sciences, Nagoya University, Nagoya, Japan Abstract Reptiles have a wide diversity of sex-determining mechanisms and types of sex chromosomes. Turtles exhibit temperature- dependent sex determination and genotypic sex determination, with male heterogametic (XX/XY) and female heterogametic (ZZ/ZW) sex chromosomes. Identification of sex chromosomes in many turtle species and their comparative genomic analysis are of great significance to understand the evolutionary processes of sex determination and sex chromosome differentiation in Testudines. The Mexican giant musk turtle (Staurotypus triporcatus, Kinosternidae, Testudines) and the giant musk turtle (Staurotypus salvinii) have heteromorphic XY sex chromosomes with a low degree of morphological differentiation; however, their origin and linkage group are still unknown. Cross-species chromosome painting with chromosome-specific DNA from Chinese soft-shelled turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis) revealed that the X and Y chromosomes of S. triporcatus have homology with P. sinensis chromosome 6, which corresponds to the chicken Z chromosome. We cloned cDNA fragments of S. triporcatus homologs of 16 chicken Z-linked genes and mapped them to S. triporcatus and S. salvinii chromosomes using fluorescence in situ hybridization. Sixteen genes were localized to the X and Y long arms in the same order in both species.
