In particular, Pachmarhi Biosphere Reserve (PBR) regions (Districts Hoshangabad, Betul and Chindwara) of MP comprises a vast range of reptiles, especially herpetofauna yet unexplored from the conservation point of view. Earlier inventory herpetofaunal study conducted in 2005 at MP and Chhattisgarh (CG) reported 6 snake families included 39 species. After this preliminary report, no literature existing regarding snake diversity of this region. This situation incited us to update the snake diversity of PBR regions. From 2010 to 2012, we conducted a detailed field study and recorded 31 species of 6 snake families (Boidae, Colubridae, Elapidae, Typhlopidea, Uropeltidae, and Viperidae) in Hoshanagbad District (Satpura Tiger Reserve) and PBR regions. Besides, we found the occurrence of Boiga forsteni and Coelognatus helena monticollaris (Colubridae), which was not previously reported in PBR region. Among the recorded, 9 species were Lower Risk – least concerned (LR-lc), 20 were of Lower Risk – near threatened (LR-nt), 1 is Endangered (EN) and 1 is vulnerable (VU) according to International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) status.

One extending NNW–SSE east of the valley results the old Panchkhal Valley uplifting along south during Plio-Pleistocene age and second one NE–SW has ultimately uplifted the old valley. The Panchkhal Clay, Ratopairo Formation, Rampur Formation and Tamaghat Formation are four depositional lithostratigraphical units. Similarly, Tamaghat, Rampur, Thumka, and Chisapani surfaces are depositional and Basukidada, Sano-Tinghare, Sumara-Thulo Tinghare, Dhulikhel, Koiralathumka and Bhamarkot surfaces are erosional morphostratigraphic geomorphic surfaces. Geomorphic terrace cutting level is around 1400–1440 m and all surfaces and deposits above and below are relatively young. INTRODUCTION Thrust (MT). Abrupt change in terrace elevation The Panchkhal Valley, intermontane basin associated with observed lineaments at Khok Village developed in the southeast of the Kathmandu Valley and at Okhare Village signifies that they are is located within the eastern flank of a synclinorium neotectonic in origin. in Kavre District (Stocklin 1980). The Jhiku Khola, Two type of lineaments were recognised, of which a tributary of the Sun Koshi River is characterised the first extends along NNW-SSE passing from the by development of geomorphic surfaces at different east of the Panchkhal Valley along the Cha Khola elevations formed after the last glacial retreat in the and eastern ridge.

According to the suryey of Dhulikhel Hospital many people are suffering from gallblader stone due to lack of pure and filtrate water. Disaster Aid International team and CDRA Nepal team had visited to Chaurbeshi village and we saw their reality so planned to give sky hydrant filter. But the capacity of that filter is higher than the population size. So that is not suitable for that village thus, with consultation of DAI team we decided to provide locally made ceramic water filter to each house hold for safe drinking water. Villagers are very happy to receive the locally made ceramic water filter which is easy to use and clean. Recommendation of filters: To villagers: We recommended that villagers to keep filters in safe place and to clean the filter weekly. To keep filters out of reach of children so that children should not break. To make habit of drinking safe filter water.

Flora and Fauna International S.A.R.N. DIRECTORY of Reptile Field Researchers in South Asia (as of December 2000) Compiled by Sanjay Molur South Asian Reptile Network Zoo Outreach Organisation PB 1683, 29/1 Bharathi Colony Peelamedu, Coimbatore Tamil Nadu, India Funded by Fauna and Flora International and Columbus Zoo Assisted by South Asian Reptile and Amphibian Specialist Group Conservation Breeding Specialist Group, India Zoo Outreach Organisation For a long time, it was felt that though there were quite a few reptile researchers in India, there was no coordination, cooperation, exchange of information between them. Often only a core group of “well-known” reptile researchers were in communication. The rest of the biologists did their own research in isolation. This, of course, did lead to duplication of work, non-standard methodologies, ambiguity in knowledge, non-accessibility to exotic references, etc. The effects of this situation were obvious at the Conservation Assessment and Management Plan workshop (CAMP) for Reptiles in May 1997. At the workshop, albeit the exercise lead to the assessment of close to 500 taxa of Indian reptiles, a sense of unease was felt by the participants. Many isolated studies on reptiles could not be compared for want of comparable field methodologies, the veracity of the information provided was questioned of an unknown or nervous researcher and the ubiquitous feeling of “if we had all known each other better, we could have come up with more information” were reasons for the group recommending that a network of reptile researchers be formed immediately.
