A total of 151 species of buterfies et al. 2000), 139 species from Kudremukh Natonal Park belonging to 99 genera and fve families was recorded. The family (Radhakrishnan 2007), 74 species from Peechi-Vazhani Nymphalidae was the most dominant with the highest number of species (52 species; 35%), followed by Lycaenidae (33 species; Wildlife Sanctuary (Mathew et al. 2005), 53 species 22%), Hesperiidae (25 species; 17%), Pieridae (24 species; 16%), and from Neyyar Wildlife Sanctuary (Mathew et al. 2007), Papilionidae (15 species: 10%). The study also revealed 24 species 115 species from Gudavi Bird Sanctuary (Dayanand of buterfies which are protected under various schedules of Indian Wildlife Protecton Act, 1972, and 13 species as being endemic to the 2014), and 85 species from the montane forests of Western Ghats, peninsular India and Sri Lanka.

The sanctuary is rich in buterfies, belonging to fve families. The checklists of both foral and faunal diversity. all the species observed with their status are given in Table 1. Family-wise distributon of buterfies species Sampling method showed that, Nymphalidae was the most dominant with Buterfy survey was carried out from February 2010 52 species (35% of total species), followed by Lycaenidae to January 2011 to record their status and abundance. with 33 species (22%), Hesperiidae with 25 species The line transect method developed by the Insttuton (17%), Pieridae with 24 species (16%), and Papilionidae of Terrestrial Ecology (Pollard 1979) was followed to with 15 species (10%). On the basis of the frequency of monitor the diversity. Buterfies were recorded by direct occurrence of each buterfy species’ abundance, we visual observaton along the three fxed transect routs, calculated that 68 (46%) species were common followed each of 2km long and 10m wide, passing through the by 35 (23%) rare, 30 (20%) very common, 13 (9%) diferent landscape elements like dry deciduous, semi occasional, and 3 (2%) very rare species (Fig. 2). evergreen and scrub forest and walked at a constant Thirteen taxa listed in SWS were found to be endemic pace for approximately one to one and half an hour. species of which six species are endemic to the Western The data collecton carried out in a bi-weekly random Ghats, viz.: Pachliopta pandiyana, Papilio dravidarum, survey in the whole study period.

    FOREWORD Groundwater is an essential component of the environment and economy. It sustains the flow in our rivers and plays an important role in maintaining the fragile ecosystems. The groundwater dependence of agrarian states like Karnataka is high. Recent studies indicate that 26 percent of the area of Karnataka State is under over exploited category and number of blocks is under critical category. In view of the growing concerns of sustainability of ground water sources, immediate attention is required to augment groundwater resources in stressed areas. Irrigated agriculture in the state is putting additional stress on the groundwater system and needs proper management of the resources. Central Ground Water Board is providing all technical input for effective management of ground water resources in the state. The groundwater scenario compiled on administrative divisions gives a better perspective for planning various ground water management measures by local administrative bodies. With this objective, Central Ground Water Board is publishing the revised groundwater information booklet for all the districts of the state. I do appreciate the efforts of Dr. K.Md.Najeeb, Regional Director and his fleet of dedicated Scientists of South Western Region, Bangalore for bringing out this booklet. I am sure these brochures will provide a portrait of the groundwater resources in each district for planning effective management measures by the administrators, planners and the stake holders. Dr. S. C. Dhiman PREFACE Ground water contributes to about eighty percent of the drinking water requirements in the rural areas, fifty percent of the urban water requirements and more than fifty percent of the irrigation requirements of the nation.

Studies and Research in Industrial Chemistry, Kuvempu University, Shankaraghatta, Shimoga - 577 451, Karnataka, India. ABSTRACT Memecylon talbotianum Brand., an endemic plant of Western Ghats, was found in the Western Ghats regions of Karnataka. The plants were collected at Banajalaya of Sagara taluk and at Hidlumane falls of Hosanagara taluk, Shimoga district. The plant has been studied, identified, and its taxonomic position was assigned, the herbarium was prepared and preserved in the Department of Applied Botany, Kuvempu University. Simultaneously, the leaves of the plants were analyzed for their elemental components and nutritional values. Among the macronutrients, calcium was highest both in Banajalaya of Sagara and Hidlumane falls of Hosanagara, whereas phosphorous was minimum at Banajalaya of Sagar and sodium was minimum at Hidlumane falls of Hosanagara samples. The micronutrient value of iron was highest at both Hidlumane falls of Hosanagara and Banajalaya of Sagara samples and copper was lowest at Banajalaya of Sagara and zinc was lowest at Hidlumane falls of Hosanagara sample, respectively. The moisture was highest both at Banajalaya of Sagara and Hidlumane falls of Hosanagara samples, whereas ash value was low at Banajalaya of Sagara and crude fat was low at Hidlumane falls of Hosanagara sample among the different components of the nutritive values.
