    REPTILIA Order OPHIDIA (Snakes) I. Family COLUBRIDAE Ahaetulla prasina Green Vine Snake This snake was found in Renah Kayu Embun and Napal Licin survey sites at elevation 1400 meters asl and 300 meters asl respectively. Usually it can be seen in degraded habitat including plantation, secondary growth and house compounds, to primary rain forest (Inger and Stuebing, 2005; Kurniati, 2003). It occurs from lowlands up to mountain forests over 1500 meters asl (Kurniati et al., 2001; Kurniati, 2003). It is common species at low elevation (Inger and Stuebing, 2005), but become rare at high elevation such as Renah Kayu Embun survey site. This species is known from South-east Asia, East Indies (Sulawesi and The Lesser Sunda) (Stuebing and Inger, 1999: de Lang and Vogel, 2005). Figure 91. A. prasina (Photograph by H. Kurniati). Amphiesma sp This undescribed snake was found in Muara Labuh survey site at elevation 800 meters asl. It was a nocturnal snake that inhabited strong moving stream bank. The morphology of this snake is similar to A. kerinciense (David and Das, 2003). Possibly, it is a new species, but future study is needed. Figure 92. Amphiesma sp from Muara Labuh (Photograph by H. Kurniati). Aplopeltura boa Blunt-headed Tree Snake This snake was found in Upper Rupit River and Tapan survey sites at elevation 150 meters asl and 550 meters asl respectively. It inhabited lowland primary rain forest. It occurs at elevation between sea level to 1200 meters asl (Kurniati, 2003), but it is confined to be lowland. In Tapan survey site, it was rarely observed.

Indonesia is considered one of the megadiversity centers, both in terms of species numbers as well as endemism. According to the Biodiversity Action Plan for Indonesia, 16% of all amphibian and reptile species occur in Indonesia, a total of over 1,100 species. New research activities, launched in the last few years, indicate that these figures may be significantly higher than generally assumed. Indonesia is suspected to host the worldwide highest numbers of amphibian and reptiles species.

ABSTRACT This paper presents a revised taxonomy for the living Acrochordidae. The species Acrochordus javanicus Hornstedt, 1787 divided by McDowell in 1979 into two species is further divided, with two new species from south-east Asia formally named for the first time. The taxon A. arafurae McDowell, 1979 is placed in a separate genus, named for the first time. A. granulatus Schneider, 1799 is placed in a separate genus, for which the name Chersydrus Schneider, 1801 is already available. Keywords: Taxonomy; Australasia; Asia; Acrochordus; Chersydrus; new genus; Funkiacrochordus; new tribes; Acrochordidini; Funkiacrochordidini; new subgenus: Vetusacrochordus; new species; malayensis; mahakamiensis.

  • Fauna of Australia 2A
    FAUNA of AUSTRALIA 26. BIOGEOGRAPHY AND PHYLOGENY OF THE SQUAMATA Mark N. Hutchinson & Stephen C. Donnellan 26. BIOGEOGRAPHY AND PHYLOGENY OF THE SQUAMATA This review summarises the current hypotheses of the origin, antiquity and history of the order Squamata, the dominant living reptile group which comprises the lizards, snakes and worm-lizards. The primary concern here is with the broad relationships and origins of the major taxa rather than with local distributional or phylogenetic patterns within Australia. In our review of the phylogenetic hypotheses, where possible we refer principally to data sets that have been analysed by cladistic methods. Analyses based on anatomical morphological data sets are integrated with the results of karyotypic and biochemical data sets. A persistent theme of this chapter is that for most families there are few cladistically analysed morphological data, and karyotypic or biochemical data sets are limited or unavailable. Biogeographic study, especially historical biogeography, cannot proceed unless both phylogenetic data are available for the taxa and geological data are available for the physical environment. Again, the reader will find that geological data are very uncertain regarding the degree and timing of the isolation of the Australian continent from Asia and Antarctica. In most cases, therefore, conclusions should be regarded very cautiously. The number of squamate families in Australia is low. Five of approximately fifteen lizard families and five or six of eleven snake families occur in the region; amphisbaenians are absent. Opinions vary concerning the actual number of families recognised in the Australian fauna, depending on whether the Pygopodidae are regarded as distinct from the Gekkonidae, and whether sea snakes, Hydrophiidae and Laticaudidae, are recognised as separate from the Elapidae.

To evaluate their phylogenetic significances, we conducted phylogenetic analy- ses of the genus together with other agamid genera on the basis of 862 base positions of mitochondrial 12S and 16S rRNA genes. Results suggested the presence of two distinct lineages within Gonocephalus, of which one, represented by G. robinsonii that has a 2n=32 karyotype, was closer to other Oriental agamid genera than to the other congeneric lineage.

E-mail: [email protected] RIASSUNTO Il primo nucleo della collezione erpetologica del Museo Civico di Storia Naturale “Giacomo Doria” di Genova è costituito dalle raccolte effettuate da Giacomo Doria, fondatore del Museo, nella zona di La Spezia, in Persia (oggi Iran) e in Borneo (insieme a Odoardo Beccari) negli anni 1862-1868. Successivamente la collezione viene incrementata col materiale di numerose spedizioni condotte in tutti i conti - nenti; i risultati di tali raccolte sono stati spesso pubblicati sugli “Annali” del Museo. Nella collezione sono pre - senti 593 specie di Anfibi e 1.456 di Rettili; 171 taxa, attualmente validi, sono rappresentati da tipi. Parole chiave: Anfibi, Rettili, Museo di Genova, annali, tipi. ABSTRACT The first nucleus of the herpetological collection of the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale “Giacomo Doria” (Italy, Genoa) was made up of the specimens collected in the years 1862-1868 near La Spezia (Italy, Liguria), in Persia (now Iran) and in Borneo (with Odoardo Beccari) by its founder, Giacomo Doria. Later, it was increased with thousands of specimens collected during several expeditions throughout all the continents. Many important studies about this rich material have been published in “Annali”, the museum’s journal.
