Odonata, Coleoptera Cetoniidae and Lepidoptera Rhopalocera were collected during 2006 from the Lokoli swampy forest. 24 Odonata species were listed, with 13 new species for Benin, including Oxythemis phoenicosceles Ris, a rare species, and Ceriagrion citrinum Campion, an endangered species on the IUCN red list, which suggest that this forest should be made a nature reserve. 12 flower beetles species were listed, most of them live only in forests. Cyprolais aurata (Westwood) is known to be a species living only in swampy rainforests and Grammopyga cincta Kolbe is known in Benin only in Lokoli and in Ouémé valley. Among 75 butterflies species, 28 are new to Bénin and only 9 occur strictly in forests. The uncommon species Eurema hapale Mabille, E. desjardinsii regularis Butler and Acraea encedana Pierre live only in swampy areas. The Lokoli swampy rainforest is ecologically unique in Benin and contributes to regional biodiversity, therefore it must become protected as nature reserve.

  • Urban Sprawl Effects on Biodiversity in Peripheral Agricultural Lands in Calabar, Nigeria ATU, JOY EKO, OFFIONG RAPHAEL AYAMA & EJA, EJA I
    Journal of Environment and Earth Science www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3216 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0948 (Online) Vol. 3, No.7, 2013 Urban Sprawl Effects on Biodiversity in Peripheral Agricultural Lands in Calabar, Nigeria ATU, JOY EKO, OFFIONG RAPHAEL AYAMA & EJA, EJA I. Department Of Geography and Environmental Science University Of Calabar, Nigeria. E-Mail: [email protected], [email protected],[email protected] Abstract The main objective of the paper is to determine the effects of urban sprawl on biodiversity in peripheral lands in Calabar, Nigeria. The specific objectives of the study are: To examine the effects of farm size and farm density on selected species in peripheral agricultural lands such as birds, butterflies and bumblebees and to compare faunal diversity on farmlands within sprawl (FLWS) and farmlands outside sprawl (FLOS) areas. 20 farms were sampled for the study, 10 in FLWS and 10 in FLOS. The relationship between farm size, tree diversity and diversity of avian fauna (birds) on agricultural lands was tested with multiple correlation analysis. Result of the analysis revealed that FLOS had more butterfly diversity with 42 (62.69 per cent) than FLWS with 25 (37.31 per cent). It was also observed that the joint contribution of the two independent variables to the variance of bird species in agricultural lands is positive with multiple correlation coefficient value of r = 0.50. This r value is significant, implying that there is a significant relationship between farm size, tree diversity and the diversity of avian fauna in agricultural lands. This finding implies that species diversity in agricultural lands are declining while others, such as those in the Satyridae family are in danger of becoming extinct due to encroaching sprawl development.

  • The Butterflies and Skippers (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) of Angola: an Updated Checklist
    Chapter 10 The Butterflies and Skippers (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) of Angola: An Updated Checklist Luís F. Mendes, A. Bivar-de-Sousa, and Mark C. Williams Abstract Presently, 792 species/subspecies of butterflies and skippers (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) are known from Angola, a country with a rich diversity of habitats, but where extensive areas remain unsurveyed and where systematic collecting pro- grammes have not been undertaken. Only three species were known from Angola in 1820. From the beginning of the twenty-first century, many new species have been described and more than 220 faunistic novelties have been assigned. As a whole, of the 792 taxa now listed for Angola, 57 species/subspecies are endemic and almost the same number are known to be near-endemics, shared by Angola and by one or another neighbouring country. The Nymphalidae are the most diverse family. The Lycaenidae and Papilionidae have the highest levels of endemism. A revised check- list with taxonomic and ecological notes is presented and the development of knowl- edge of the superfamily over time in Angola is analysed.

Type-species: Ypthima huebneri Kirby, by subsequent designation (Opinion 819, 1966. Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature 24: 210-211.). [extralimital]. Synonyms based on extralimital type-species: Dallacha Moore; Kolasa Moore; Lohana Moore; Nadiria Moore; Pandima Moore; Thympia Moore. The genus Ypthima belongs to the Family Nymphalidae Rafinesque, 1815; Subfamily Satyrinae Boisduval, 1833; Tribe Satyrini Boisduval, 1833; Subtribe Ypthimina, Reuter, 1896. The other genera in the Subtribe Ypthimina in the Afrotropical Region are Ypthimomorpha, Mashuna, Mashunoides, Strabena, Neocoenyra, Coenyropsis, Coenyra, Physcaeneura, Neita, Melampius, Cassionympha, Pseudonympha, Paternympha and Stygionympha. Ypthima (Ringlets) is a large Old World genus of 111 species. Nineteen species are found in the Afrotropical Region, two of which extend extralimitally. Generic revision (of Afrotropical taxa) by Kielland (1982). Sourakov & Emmel (1997) speculate that the Afrotropical Ypthima may be paraphyletic. *Ypthima albida Butler, 1888 Silver Ringlet The Silver Ringlet (Ypthima albida albida). Kibale Forest, Uganda.

  • Results from a Butterfly Survey Around Bashu, Southern Okwangwo Division of Cross River National Park, Nigeria
    Results from a butterfly survey around Bashu, Southern Okwangwo Division of Cross River National Park, Nigeria OSKAR BRATTSTRÖM Dept. Animal Ecology, Ecology Building, SE-223 62 LUND, Sweden [email protected] African Leaf Butterfly (Kallimoides rumia jadyae ) © Oskar Brattström EVE P.L NT . IS FORESTRY COMMISSION, Calabar A O E R T N U I T BOKI BIRDS, Bashu T H I T O L S O N G I I C H AL R C R ESEA Introduction This butterfly survey was conducted the period during 1 – 25 November 2006 in the Cross River State, southeastern Nigeria in the surroundings of the village Bashu Okpambe (ca. 06º06’N, 09˚08’E). Bashu is situated at the southern tip of the Okwangwo Division of the Cross River National Park, ca. 2.5 km W of the border to Cameroun (Fig. 1). Some records also originate from a preliminary visit to Bashu in 3 – 4 February 2006. Fig. 1: Location of Bashu. The map shows the southeastern part of Nigeria. Image obtained from Google-Earth. Methods Butterflies were captured daily using hand nets and bait traps. Unfortunately bait traps had very low capture efficiency during this survey, possibly due to environmental conditions in the area being unsuitable at the time of this survey. No single species was caught in traps only. Some species were identified immediately in the field while others were kept for later identification. In some cases a proper identification even requires inspection of dissected male genitalia under microscope. Voucher specimens are presently placed in the private collection of Oskar Brattström in Sweden.

    Gabon & São Tomé & Príncipe A Greentours Natural History Holiday 4th to 25th August 2005 Led by Paul Cardy and Phil Benstead Daily reports by Phil Benstead and Paul Cardy Day 1 Thursday 4th August UK departure, the journey begins We all assembled at Heathrow in good order and flew off more or less on time to Casablanca. Here we met up with Anthony and waited a little bit longer than we were supposed to before our flight left for Libreville (via Douali in Cameroon). A group of cattle egrets picked out by the terminal building floodlights as they flew by were the first birds of the trip. Most of us were so tired by the time the plane got going that we managed to get some sleep. Day 2 Friday 5th August Arrival in Libreville and the train to Lopé We woke to a rainy landing in Cameroon and after re-fuelling were on our way on the short hop to Libreville. We made up most of the time lost in Casablanca overnight. Customs and Immigration were all cleared remarkably smoothly and we were soon walking to the nearby Hotel Atlantique, whilst the bags went by road. In the very short distance between the airport and the hotel the bird list was truly started with village weaver, bronze mannikin, pied crow, Northern grey-headed sparrow and long-legged pipit all being seen. After settling into our rooms it was quickly time for lunch and whilst we waited we added yet more species to the list with copper sunbird, woodland kingfisher and common bulbul being added.
