Primates of the Southern Mentawai Islands
Primate Conservation 2018 (32): 193-203 The Status of Primates in the Southern Mentawai Islands, Indonesia Ahmad Yanuar1 and Jatna Supriatna2 1Department of Biology and Post-graduate Program in Biology Conservation, Tropical Biodiversity Conservation Center- Universitas Nasional, Jl. RM. Harsono, Jakarta, Indonesia 2Department of Biology, FMIPA and Research Center for Climate Change, University of Indonesia, Depok, Indonesia Abstract: Populations of the primates native to the Mentawai Islands—Kloss’ gibbon Hylobates klossii, the Mentawai langur Presbytis potenziani, the Mentawai pig-tailed macaque Macaca pagensis, and the snub-nosed pig-tailed monkey Simias con- color—persist in disturbed and undisturbed forests and forest patches in Sipora, North Pagai and South Pagai. We used the line-transect method to survey primates in Sipora and the Pagai Islands and estimate their population densities. We walked 157.5 km and 185.6 km of line transects on Sipora and on the Pagai Islands, respectively, and obtained 93 sightings on Sipora and 109 sightings on the Pagai Islands. On Sipora, we estimated population densities for H. klossii, P. potenziani, and S. concolor in an area of 9.5 km², and M. pagensis in an area of 12.6 km². On the Pagai Islands, we estimated the population densities of the four primates in an area of 11.1 km². Simias concolor was found to have the lowest group densities on Sipora, whilst P. potenziani had the highest group densities. On the Pagai Islands, H. klossii was the least abundant and M. pagensis had the highest group densities. Primate populations, notably of the snub-nosed pig-tailed monkey and Kloss’ gibbon, are reduced and threatened on the southern Mentawai Islands. -
5. ARTISANAL FISHERIES There Is No Universal Definition of “Artisanal Fisheries” but Common Criteria (SEAFDEC 1999) Include 1
ACIAR Project FIS/2001/079 5. ARTISANAL FISHERIES There is no universal definition of “artisanal fisheries” but common criteria (SEAFDEC 1999) include 1. Small scale and often decentralized operations, 2. A predominance of small vessels (often <10 GT), 3. A predominance of traditional fishing gears (but may include trawl, seine, gill-net, and longline vessels), 4. Fishing trips are generally short and inshore, and 5. The fisheries are often largely subsistence fisheries, but there may be some commercial component. The ports surveyed for the artisanal component of this report only meet these criteria to varying degrees, with some being home to many vessels >10 GT, and with centralized commercial operations. However, for the purposes of this study, “artisanal ports” includes not only the smallest scale of landing place at the fishing village level (i.e. what most readers would consider truly artisanal), but also these larger landing places where fishing vessels are primarily owned by fishing households, but not by fishing companies, and where the majority of vessels are smaller than 25 GT. A summary of key features of the artisanal landing places surveyed are shown in Table 5.0.1. More detailed descriptions are provided in the sections that follow. 5.1 Bungus – Padang, Pariaman, and Painan (West Sumatra) There are 5 provinces on the west coast of Sumatra – from north to south, the provinces of Nanggroe Aceh Darussalam (formerly Daerah Istimewa Aceh), North Sumatra (Sumatra Utara), West Sumatra (Sumatra Barat), Bengkulu, and Lampung. Numerous islands are located off this coast - Banyak Archipelago islands in the north, Nias Island, Tanahmasa and Tanahbala Islands, the Mentawai Islands (that include Siberut, Sipura and Pagai Islands), and Enggano Island in the south. -

The Superfamily Calopterygoidea in South China: Taxonomy and Distribution. Progress Report for 2009 Surveys Zhang Haomiao* *PH D
International Dragonfly Fund - Report 26 (2010): 1-36 1 The Superfamily Calopterygoidea in South China: taxonomy and distribution. Progress Report for 2009 surveys Zhang Haomiao* *PH D student at the Department of Entomology, College of Natural Resources and Environment, South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou 510642, China. Email: [email protected] Introduction Three families in the superfamily Calopterygoidea occur in China, viz. the Calo- pterygidae, Chlorocyphidae and Euphaeidae. They include numerous species that are distributed widely across South China, mainly in streams and upland running waters at moderate altitudes. To date, our knowledge of Chinese spe- cies has remained inadequate: the taxonomy of some genera is unresolved and no attempt has been made to map the distribution of the various species and genera. This project is therefore aimed at providing taxonomic (including on larval morphology), biological, and distributional information on the super- family in South China. In 2009, two series of surveys were conducted to Southwest China-Guizhou and Yunnan Provinces. The two provinces are characterized by karst limestone arranged in steep hills and intermontane basins. The climate is warm and the weather is frequently cloudy and rainy all year. This area is usually regarded as one of biodiversity “hotspot” in China (Xu & Wilkes, 2004). Many interesting species are recorded, the checklist and photos of these sur- veys are reported here. And the progress of the research on the superfamily Calopterygoidea is appended. Methods Odonata were recorded by the specimens collected and identified from pho- tographs. The working team includes only four people, the surveys to South- west China were completed by the author and the photographer, Mr. -

An Overview of Molecular Odonate Studies, and Our Evolutionary Understanding of Dragonfly and Damselfly (Insecta: Odonata) Behavior
International Journal of Odonatology Vol. 14, No. 2, June 2011, 137–147 Dragons fly, biologists classify: an overview of molecular odonate studies, and our evolutionary understanding of dragonfly and damselfly (Insecta: Odonata) behavior Elizabeth F. Ballare* and Jessica L. Ware Department of Biological Sciences, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, 195 University Ave., Boyden Hall, Newark, NJ, 07102, USA (Received 18 November 2010; final version received 3 April 2011) Among insects, perhaps the most appreciated are those that are esthetically pleasing: few capture the interest of the public as much as vibrantly colored dragonflies and damselflies (Insecta: Odonata). These remarkable insects are also extensively studied. Here, we review the history of odonate systematics, with an emphasis on discrepancies among studies. Over the past century, relationships among Odonata have been reinterpreted many times, using a variety of data from wing vein morphology to DNA. Despite years of study, there has been little consensus about odonate taxonomy. In this review, we compare odonate molecular phylogenetic studies with respect to gene and model selection, optimality criterion, and dataset completeness. These differences are discussed in relation to the evolution of dragonfly behavior. Keywords: Odonata; mitochondrion; nuclear; phylogeny; systematic; dragonfly; damselfly Introduction Why study Odonata? The order Odonata comprises three suborders: Anisozygoptera, Anisoptera, and Zygoptera. There are approximately 6000 species of Odonata described worldwide (Ardila-Garcia & Gregory, 2009). Of the three suborders Anisoptera and Zygoptera are by far the most commonly observed and collected, because there are only two known species of Anisozygoptera under the genus Epiophlebia. All odonate nymphs are aquatic, with a few rare exceptions such as the semi-aquatic Pseudocordulia (Watson, 1983), and adults are usually found near freshwater ponds, marshes, rivers (von Ellenrieder, 2010), streams, and lakes (although some species occur in areas of mild salinity; Corbet, 1999). -
