    Arunachal Pradesh, India (Eaglenest, Dirang and Nameri) 5-15 April 2007 Graham Talbot, Ramana Athreya, Mike Turnbull, Chris Campion, Bjorn Anderson and Joakim Hammar with the endemic-rich eastern Himalayas in the background Björn Anderson General This is a report from a highly successful trip to the eastern Himalayas together with Hong Kong birding companions Joakim (Jocko) Hammar, Chris Campion, Graham Talbot and Mike Turnbull. CC, GT and MT sneaked away from non-birding duties a few days earlier than Jocko and myself and thereby also squeezed in Kaziranga. Two years ago Eaglenest would have required a full presentation, but with the published discovery of the Bugun Liocichla in 2006 the place is on everyone’s lips. In fact more than 250 Indian and foreign birders made the pilgrimage to Eaglenest in early 2007! If the Bugun people ever doubted that their forest would be of international interest, they are by now proven quite wrong. I and Jocko spent six nights at Eaglenest before moving to Dirang for two nights and finishing off with one morning at Nameri in the Assam lowlands. We were fortunate to enjoy the company and guiding of Ramana Athreya the entire time. Ramana is the birder who first found and described the Bugun Liocichla and made Eaglenest known to the birding community. Highlights This is one of those places on earth where you in a short period of time can see so many good birds that it is difficult to pick out a top five, even a top ten! - The absolutely unconcerned male Ward’s Trogon that gave itself up after 18 hours of

  • Pollination of the Lady's Slipper Cypripedium Henryi Rolfe
    Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008, 156, 491–499. With 2 figures Pollination of the lady’s slipper Cypripedium henryi Rolfe (Orchidaceae) PENG LI2,3, YI-BO LUO1,2*, YIN-XIA DENG2,4 and YONG KOU5 1The National Orchid Conservation Centre, Shenzhen 518114, Guangdong, China 2State Key Laboratory of Systematic and Evolutionary Botany, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100093, China 3Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100049, China 4Jilin Agriculture University, Changchun 130118, Jilin, China 5Huanglong Administration of National Scenic Spots, Huanglong 623300, Sichuan, China Received 2 November 2005; accepted for publication 22 October 2007 The pollination ecology of Cypripedium henryi Rolfe, a slipper orchid endemic to west China, was investigated, and its floral shape, size, colour, and scent were analysed. Examination of the breeding system suggests that the flowers are self-compatible, but need pollen vectors for successful reproduction. The flower is rewardless; over 15 insects belonging to Araneida, Hymenoptera, Diptera, Lepidoptera, and Coleoptera were recorded as flower visitors, but most only alighted or rested on the flower. In the total 32 h of observations over 2 years, female Lasioglossum bees were found to be the most frequent visitors and the only pollinators. They showed a high visitation frequency and, surprisingly, re-visited the same flowers frequently. Cypripedium henryi probably attracts pollinators visiting the flowers through general food deception (odour components, colour, false nectar guides), as well as special structures (slippery labellum, slippery staminode). Although three Lasioglossum species visited the flowers, only L. sauterum Fan et Ebmer was found with pollen. Lasioglossum flavohirtum Ebmer was large and climbed out from the entrance.

  • THE Magnoliaceae Liriodendron L. Magnolia L
    THE Magnoliaceae Liriodendron L. Magnolia L. VEGETATIVE KEY TO SPECIES IN CULTIVATION Jan De Langhe (1 October 2014 - 28 May 2015) Vegetative identification key. Introduction: This key is based on vegetative characteristics, and therefore also of use when flowers and fruits are absent. - Use a 10× hand lens to evaluate stipular scars, buds and pubescence in general. - Look at the entire plant. Young specimens, shade, and strong shoots give an atypical view. - Beware of hybridisation, especially with plants raised from seed other than wild origin. Taxa treated in this key: see page 10.

    Indonesia Highlights of Western Indonesia (Flores, Komodo, Bali, Java & Sumatra) 15th to 28th July 2019 (14 days) Trip Report Javan Banded Pitta by Glen Valentine Trip report compiled by Tour Leader: Glen Valentine Top 10 list as voted for by the tour participants: 1. Javan Trogon 2. Red-crowned Barbet 3. Green Broadbill 4. Javan Frogmouth 5. Buffy Fish Owl 6. Pygmy Cupwing 7. Rufous-collared Kingfisher 8. Javan Banded Pitta 9. Red-bearded Bee-eater 10. Bali Myna Bali Myna (Starling) by Dennis Braddy Tour Summary… This short but extremely productive and varied tour, covering a fine selection of hand-picked “top birding sites and destinations” throughout Western Indonesia was an immense success, once again and was an absolute joy to lead due to our enthusiastic, fun and very good-natured group. Our quick-fire, two-week tour of western Indonesia, kicked off in Denpasar, on the island of Bali where we all met up at the Harris Hotel for an introductory dinner and flight the following morning to the island of Flores, situated in Nusa Tenggara (The Lesser Sundas), a chain of islands running mostly east/west to the east of Wallace’s line, therefore having a distinctly Australasian flair about their avifauna. After arriving in the large, coastal town of Labuan Bajo, the gateway to the popular and famous Komodo Island, we boarded our minibus and began the windy drive east, up into the hills, towards our first biding locality of the tour, the forest reserve of Puarlolo. This small reserve was initially set aside to protect the endemic and highly threatened Flores Monarch that was only discovered from this area as recently as 1971 and is still only known from a few scattered localities in the sub-montane forest on Flores.

  • Namibia, 2018
    Nambia and little bits of Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia, July-August 2018 Michael Kessler In 1994, my wife Elke and I did our first joint trip to Namibia, spending 3 weeks mainly in the arid western parts of the country and seeing such goodies as Brown Hyena, Caracal, Black Mongoose, Honey Badger, 3 species of sengis, and Southern African Porcupine. In 2010, we made our first family trip to Africa to KwaZulu Natal, seeing much of the large game. So now we decided to return to Namibia with the family, with the aim of exploring some new areas and searching out the less easily seen species. Time and budget limited the trip to about 2½ weeks and after some deliberation, we settled on the following sites: Sesriem + Sossusvlei for the dunes; Walvisbay for Heaviside’s Dolphin + Welwitschia; Erindi for African Wild Dog and the other game; Toko Lodge for the night drives, especially for Aardvark; Etosha only briefly for the amazing wildlife spectacle; Mahango for the Okavango specials (birds and mammals); and Victoria Falls for, well, the falls. This resulted in the following Itinerary: 25.7: Left Zurich in the evening, arriving on 26.7.: am in Jo’burg, followed by a connecting flight to Windhoek where we picked up the rental car, did some grocery shopping, and fell into our beds at Arebbusch Lodge on the southern outskirts of the city. 27.7.: Long drive to Desert Homestead Lodge at Sesriem. 28.7.: am: visit to Sossusvlei; pm: Cessna flight over the dunes, followed by a night drive back to the lodge, seeing some Bat-eared Foxes.
