BARNETT College of Marine and Environmental Sciences, James Cook University, Townsville, Qld, Australia TropWATER (Centre for Tropical Water and Aquatic Ecosystem Research), James Cook University, Townsville, Qld, Australia Abstract The Niugini black bass, Lutjanus goldiei Bloch, is an estuarine and freshwater fish species endemic to New Guinea and the surrounding islands. It is the focus of a growing sport fishing industry that has the potential to provide long-standing benefits to local people. Plantation agriculture, mining and logging are expanding in many catchments where L. goldiei is found, creating the potential for these industries to impact on L. goldiei and the environments it relies on. Understanding of the current status of the species, including its biology, ecology and distribution, is essential for its sustainable management.

EOk Tedi Mining Ltd, Environment Department, PO Box 1, Tabubil, Western Province, Papua New Guinea. Abstract In total, 58 species of waterbird were recorded on the grassed floodplain of the Middle Fly during surveys in December 1994 and April 1995. The floodplain is an important dry-season habitat both in New Guinea and internationally, with an estimated (k s.e.) 587249 f 62741 waterbirds in December. Numbers decreased 10-fold between December and April to 54914 f 9790: the area was less important during the wet season when it was more deeply inundated. Only magpie geese, comb-crested jacanas and spotted whistling-ducks were recorded breeding on the floodplain. The waterbird community was numerically dominated by fish-eating species, especially in December. Substantial proportions of the populations of many species that occurred on the Middle Fly in December were probably dry-season migrants from Australia, suggesting that migration across Torres Strait is important to the maintenance of waterbird numbers in both New Guinea and Australia. Introduction About 700 species of bird occur on the island of New Guinea (Coates 1985; Beehler et al.

  • Diversity of Banana Cultivars and Their Usages in the Papua New Guinea Lowlands: a Case Study Focusing on the Kalapua Subgroup
    People and Culture in Oceania, 34: 55-78, 2018 Diversity of Banana Cultivars and their Usages in the Papua New Guinea Lowlands: A Case Study Focusing on the Kalapua Subgroup Shingo Odani,* Kaori Komatsu,** Kagari Shikata-Yasuoka,*** Yasuaki Sato,**** and Koichi Kitanishi***** The purpose of this study was to assess the diversity of banana cultivars and their usage in 3 lowland areas of Papua New Guinea, where bananas are a staple food. We focus on the kalapua subgroup, which is of genome group ABB. We found 3 subgroups of banana at the 3 research sites: the kalapua subgroup, a subgroup of cooking bananas other than kalapua, and a subgroup used as dessert bananas. We observed that kalapua subgroup cultivars and other subgroup cultivars are planted in separate gardens, likely because the growth rate and tolerance to climate differ between kalapua and other subgroup cultivars. A nutritional status assessment revealed that in the kalapua subgroup, nutrient levels, except for carbohydrates, are comparatively low. Thus, farmers classify and produce kalapua and other cultivars separately. Kalapua, which are known for their tolerance for both dry conditions and flooding, are cultivated as a sustainable energy supply. Other banana cultivars may be grown because of their nutritional composition, as a matter of preference, or as a means of cash income. Keywords: banana, Papua New Guinea, kalapua, taxonomy, farming system, nutrition 1. Introduction Plants of the genus Musa whose fruits are edible are generally called banana.1 Almost all bananas currently present originated from 2 wild species, Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. * Faculty of Letters, Chiba University, Japan.

  • Notes on the Gulf Province Languages Overview
    Notes on the Gulf Province languages Karl Franklin (Data Collected 1968-1973; this report collated 2011) Information compiled here is from notes that I collected between 1968 and 1973. Following the completion of my Ph.D. degree at the Australian National University in 1969, I was awarded a post-doctoral fellowship in 1970 to conduct a linguistic survey of the Gulf Province. In preparation for the survey I wrote a paper that was published as: Franklin, Karl J. 1968. Languages of the Gulf District: A Preview. Pacific Linguistics, Series A, 16.19-44. As a result of the linguistic survey in1970, I edited a book with ten chapters, written by eight different scholars (Franklin, Lloyd, MacDonald, Shaw, Wurm, Brown, Voorhoeve and Dutton). From this data I proposed a classification scheme for 33 languages. For specific details see: Franklin, Karl J. 1973 (ed.) The linguistic situation in the Gulf District and adjacent areas, Papua New Guinea. Pacific Linguistics, Series C, 26, x + 597 pp. Overview There are three sections in this paper. The first is a table that briefly outlines information on languages, dialects and villages of the Gulf Province. (Note that I cannot verify the spelling of each village/language due to differences between various sources.) The second section of the paper is an annotated bibliography and the third is an Appendix with notes from Annual Reports of the Territory of Papua. Source Notes Author/Language Woodward Annual pp. 19-22 by Woodward notes that: Report (AR) Four men of Pepeha were murdered by Kibeni; there is 1919-20:19- now friendly relations between Kirewa and Namau; 22 information on patrols to Ututi, Sirebi, and Kumukumu village on a whaleboat.

  • An Ichthyological Survey of the Sepik River, Papua New Guinea
    Rec. West. Aust. Mus. Suppl. no. 34 An ichthyological survey of the Sepik River, Papua New Guinea Gerald R. Allen* and David Coatest Abstract A survey of the freshwater fishes of the Sepik River system of northern Papua New r Guinea was undertaken by the authors between 1978 and 1985 with the use of gill nets and rotenone, and also by monitoring catches at local villages and markets. We also include records of past expeditions, namely that of the Dutch naturalist Gjellerup in 1910 and the yacht Illyria in 1929. The total known freshwater fauna as reported herein consists of 57 species in 35 genera and 23 families. The fauna is typical of other sections of New Guinea and northern Australia in that it is dominated by catfishes (Ariidae and Plotosidae), rainbowfishes (Melanotaeniidae), gudgeons (Eleotrididae) and gobies (Gobiidae) which collectively comprise 57 percent of the total species. With the exception of 22 widely distributed species that are frequently estuarine dwellers and are confined to the lower Sepik, the fishes are strongly endemic, either to the Sepik-Ramu drainages (which interconnect during floods), or the "intermontane trough" composed of the combined Markham, Ramu, Sepik, and Mamberamo systems. Individual accounts, including brief descriptions and information pertaining to habitat, distribution and biology are included for each species. In addition illustrations are provided for many of the endemic species. Introduction Considering its size, high rainfall and consequent abundance of fresh water habitats, the inland fishes of New Guinea (the term New Guinea is used in this paper to refer to the geographic unit composed of Papua New Guinea and Irian ]aya) are poorly documented except for scattered localities and a more or less comprehensive treatment of melanotaeniid rainbowfishes (AlIen and Cross 1982).

  • Method of Flood Hazard Mapping in Ungauged Markham River Basin in Papua New Guinea
    METHOD OF FLOOD HAZARD MAPPING IN UNGAUGED MARKHAM RIVER BASIN IN PAPUA NEW GUINEA Dagwin Dagwin Mark Supervisors: Dr. Duminda PERERA MEE 16722 Prof. Shinji EGASHIRA ABSTRACT During last decade, flood disaster events were experienced throughout Papua New Guinea (PNG). Markham river basin in Morobe province is one of the areas that encountered considerable damages to properties and infrastructure during these flood events which have led to disruption of everyday activities and affected the economy of the country. Though it is an important river basin that supports extensive commercial and agricultural activity of PNG, there had been very little studies on flood and other water related disasters. This study attempts to provide a means of useful flood information such as hazard map to the residents of the basin. Rainfall runoff and associated inundations are computed by means of a rainfall runoff model (RRI model) for specific rainfall data such as 25, 50 and 100 years return periods. Based on the predicted inundation areas, a flood hazard map is proposed. However, the proposed hazard map is not tested for its validity because there are no observed data. Keywords: Markham River basin, flood disaster, RRI model, Flood Hazard Map INTRODUCTION Markham River basin (Figure 1) in Morobe Province is one of the five largest river basin in PNG that is located between longitudes: (145° 58’ 00’’ to 146° 58’ 30’’ ) and latitude: (-5° 51’ 30’’ to - 7° 31’ 00’’ ). Having an area of 12,750 km2, its large fertile flat lands have encouraged agricultural and economic activities to boom rapidly. Large plantation of agricultural products such as peanuts (groundnut) and vegetables are grown and sold to local markets.

No. 90 Notes on the Echidnas (Mammalia, Tachyglossidae) of New Guinea BY HOBART M. VAN DEUSEN1 AND GRAEME G. GEORGE2 INTRODUCTION Surprisingly few published data are available on the distribution of the species of echidnas in New Guinea. Field collecting and observations by seven Archbold Expeditions to New Guinea and one to the Cape York Peninsula of Australia have produced additional information on the habitats, distribution, and life histories of the two genera of echidnas, Tachyglossus and Zaglossus. George has had the opportunity of making observations on living Tachyglossus; Van Deusen on Zaglossus. George has also contributed to our understanding of the distribution of Tachyglossus in the Western Highlands District of the Territory of New Guinea. The taxonomy of Zaglossus, first described in 1876, has suffered not only because of the rarity of the genus in collections, but also because the available specimens are widely scattered among the museums of the world. No taxonomist has been able to examine more than a fraction of this material. Specimens collected by the Archbold Expeditions add to the evidence that there is wide geographic variation,in the characters 1 Archbold Assistant Curator, Department of Mammalogy, the American Museum of Natural History. 2 Manager, Hallstrom Park Bird of Paradise Sanctuary, Baiyer River, Western Highlands District, Territory of New Guinea. 2 AMERICAN MUSEUM NOVITATES NO. 2383 - .... ,. 4 FIG. 1.
