SWAMINATHAN RESEARCH FOUNDATION FOREWORD Every calamity presents opportunities for progress provided we learn appropriate lessons from the calamity and apply effective remedies to prevent its recurrence. The Alappuzha district along with Kuttanad region has been chosen by the Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India for special consideration in view of the prevailing agrarian distress. In spite of its natural wealth, the district has a high proportion of population living in poverty. The M. S. Swaminathan Research Foundation was invited by the Union Ministry of Agriculture to go into the economic and ecological problems of the Alappuzha district as well as the Kuttanad Wetland Ecosystem as a whole. The present report is the result of the study undertaken in response to the request of the Union Ministry of Agriculture. The study team was headed by Dr. S. Bala Ravi, Advisor of MSSRF with Drs. Sudha Nair, Anil Kumar and Ms. Deepa Varma as members. The Team was supported by a panel of eminent technical advisors. Recognising that the process of preparation of such reports is as important as the product, the MSSRF team held wide ranging consultations with all concerned with the economy, ecological security and livelihood security of Kuttanad wetlands. Information on the consultations held and visits made are given in the report. The report contains a malady-remedy analysis of the problems and potential solutions. The greatest challenge in dealing with multidimensional problems in our country is our inability to generate the necessary synergy and convergence among the numerous government, non-government, civil society and other agencies involved in the implementation of the programmes such as those outlined in this report.

  • Preliminary Studies on Butterfly Fauna of Chail Wildlife Sanctuary, Shimla, Himachal Pradesh
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064 Index Copernicus Value (2016): 79.57 | Impact Factor (2017): 7.296 Preliminary Studies on Butterfly Fauna of Chail Wildlife Sanctuary, Shimla, Himachal Pradesh Ritika Gangotia1, Pawan Kumar2 Himalayan Forest Research Institute, Shimla, Himachal Pradesh, India Abstract: Biodiversity is one of the important aspects of sustainable development and represents biological wealth of a nation but the world is facing its greatest ever biodiversity crisis and diversity in the living world is staggering, therefore it needs to be conserved and it would have been impossible to deal with enormous diversity if such a significant data is not timely classified and documented. In this envision, a one year study was carried out in Chail Wildlife Sanctuary of Himachal Pradesh during the March 2017 to Feb 2018. The study aims to make a checklist of butterflies so as to find the threatened taxa and make a preliminary note on their conservation strategy. Present study revealed that a total of 53 species of butterflies belonging to five families i.e. Nymphalidae, Papilionidae, Pieridae, Lycanidae and Hesperidae were found. The family Nymphalidae was most dominant with 23 species followed by 12 species of family Pieridae, 11 species of the family Lycanidae, 4 species of the family Papilionidae and 3 species of the family Hesperidae. Percentage composition showed that the family Nymphalidae constituted about 43 % of total butterfly fauna followed by Pieridae (23 %), Lycanidae(21%), Papilionidae (8%) and of the family Hesperidae (5 %). Species diversity was found highest in the family Lycanidae (2.31) and lowest in the family Pieridae (0.78), evenness was highest in the family Nymphalidae (7.77) and lowest in the family Hesperidae (1.22).
