Hal ini terbukti dari kedatangan beberapa ahli Herpetofauna dari luar negeri beberapa waktu terakhir ini Indonesia, khususnya di Bogor. Kedatangan mereka terutama karena tertarik akan kekayaan jenis herpe- tofauna yang dimiliki oleh Indonesia. Selain itu, mereka juga membawa ilmu yang dapat menambah wawasan Herpe- tologis Indonesia sehingga catatannya dibagikan dalam edisi Warta Herpetofauna kali ini. Selain itu, dideskripsikannya jenis katak baru dari Pulau Bali oleh Amir Hamidy serta cerita kekayaan jenis herpetofauna dari Kepulauan Natuna juga membuktikan bahwa Indonesia kemungkinan masih menyimpan potensi kekayaan Herpeto- fauna yang lebih besar lagi.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

  • The Names You Know, the People You Don't – Dr. Heinrich Kuhl & Dr
    TThhee NNaammeess YYoouu KKnnooww,, tthhee PPeeooppllee YYoouu DDoonn’’tt:: Dr. Heinrich Kuhl & Dr. Johan van Hasselt Derek P.S. Tustin I’ve fallen into a bit of a trap when thinking about the various ichthyological explorers I’ve been introducing you to. I first wrote on Dr. Marinus Boeseman who passed away at the age of 90. Next I wrote on Dr. Herbert Axelrod, who is still alive and will be celebrating his 84th birthday this year. That was followed by my introducing and interviewing Dr. Gerald Allen who is currently 68 years of age. Last month it was Dr. Louis Agassiz who passed at the age of 66. (May we all live such long lives.) I had come to expect that the honour of having a species of anything named after a person implied that the person had lived a long life full of scientific contributions. But I encountered two extraordinary gentlemen who proved that a long life is not necessarily a reflection of the quality or quantity of contributions to science. I would like to introduce you to not one but two individuals who were on a pace to become great explorers, but were both cut down in the prime of their lives; Dr. Heinrich Kuhl and Dr. Johan Coenraad van Hasselt. Dr. Heinrich Kuhl Born on September 17th, 1797 in the small German town of Hanau, Heinrich grew up with an interest in nature that was encouraged under the tutelage of Johann Leisler, a noted German naturalist and friend of his fathers. He went on to study natural history at the University of Groningen in the Netherlands.

  • NSW Native Animal Keepers' Species List 2014
    NSW Native Animal Keepers’ Species List 2014 The NSW Native Animal Keepers’ Species List 2014 (also available at www.environment.nsw.gov.au) contains the names of all species that may be kept under licence. If the animal species you want to keep isn’t listed, you generally cannot keep it, although the Department might consider requests to keep unlisted species of reptile, bird or amphibian. If you are applying for a licence for an unlisted species, you will need to supply details of the species and numbers you are proposing to keep, the legal availability of the species and its husbandry requirements in captivity. A new species list is produced by the Department each year. You can only hold an animal that is applicable to class as listed in the current year’s species list. Some animals are listed as exempt and a licence is not required to hold or trade those species (see exempt species list at the back of this document). Some hybridised animals are recorded in this list. The Department does not support native animal keepers who breed between animals of different species. Regulations prohibit the breeding of native waterfowl with domestic waterfowl. Your licence must be endorsed with the class under which the species is applicable. Holding requirements for venomous reptiles must be in accordance with the requirements contained in the class criteria for advanced reptile venomous category 1,2 or 3 as contained in the “Application for an Advanced Class- Native Animal Keepers’ Licence.” If you acquire or dispose of a native species of Cockatoo listed as applicable to class B1, or any species of animal listed under A2,B2,B3,R2,R3,R4 or R5 you must notify the Director General by email or in writing of the details of the transaction within fourteen days of the transaction taking place.

Holthuis Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, Post Box 9511, 2300 RA, Leiden, The Netherlands The Crustacea volume of Fauna Japonica is not just a report on the extensive crustacean collections brought together in Japan by Ph. F. von Siebold and H. Burger. In view of the many new Japanese species described and figured in it, such an enumeration in itself would have formed a major contribution to carcinology. But De Haan wanted more, he intended to give in this volume a revised classification of Crustacea, not only based on the external morphology but also on the configuration of the mouth parts. Long before he had seen any Japanese crustaceans and before he had ever published on the group, De Haan in 1826, in a report of the journey that he made in that year to visit various German musea, wrote as follows (free translation from the Dutch): "The director of the Berlin Museum, Mr. Lichtenstein (= Martin Hinrich Carl Lichtenstein, 1780-1857), has provided me with the opportunity to lay the foundation for a "Species Crustaceorum," an undertaking which is only possible in Berlin, because of the extent of the collection there, which is especially important by the presence of the original specimens described by Herbst.

Kluge (1985) subsequently designated a lectotype for C. marmoratus from a series of these specimens (i.e., syntypes), now housed in the herpetological collection at Naturalis (formerly the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke His- torie; RMNH), Leiden, the Netherlands.
