The distribution of Bufotes latastii, a diploid green toad species, is analyzed based on field observations and literature data. 74 localities are known, although 7 ones should be confirmed. The range of B. latastii is confined to northern Pakistan, Kashmir Valley and western Ladakh in India. All records of “green toads” (“Bufo viridis”) beyond this region belong to other species, both to green toads of the genus Bufotes or to toads of the genus Duttaphrynus. B. latastii is endemic to the Western Himalaya. Its allopatric range lies between those of bisexual triploid green toads in the west and in the east. B. latastii was found at altitudes from 780 to 3200 m above sea level. Environmental niche modelling was applied to predict the potential distribution range of the species. Altitude was the variable with the highest percent contribution for the explanation of the species distribution (36 %). urn:lSid:zOobank.Org:pub:0C76EE11-5D11-4FAB-9FA9-918959833BA5 INTRODUCTION Bufotes latastii (fig. 1) iS a relatively cOmmOn green toad species which spreads in KaShmir Valley, Ladakh and adjacent regiOnS Of nOrthern India and PakiStan.

  • Ethnobotany of Ladakh (India) Plants Used in Health Care
    T. Ethnobivl, 8(2);185-194 Winter 1988 ETHNOBOTANY OF LADAKH (INDIA) PLANTS USED IN HEALTH CARE G. M. BUTH and IRSHAD A. NAVCHOO Department of Botany University of Kashmir Srinagar 190006 India ABSTRACf.-This paper puts on record the ethnobotanical information of some plants used by inhabitants of Ladakh (India) for medicine, A comparison of the uses of these plants in Ladakh and other parts of India reveal that 21 species have varied uses while 19 species are not reported used. INTRODUCTION Ladakh (elev. 3000-59G(}m), the northernmost part of India is one of the most elevated regions of the world with habitation up to 55(}(}m. The general aspect is of barren topography. The climate is extremely dry with scanty rainfall and very little snowfall (Kachroo et al. 1976). The region is traditionally rich in ethnic folklore and has a distinct culture as yet undisturbed by external influences. The majority of the population is Buddhist and follow their own system of medicine, which has been in vogue for centuries and is extensively practiced. It offers interesting insight into an ancient medical profession. The system of medicine is the"Amchi system" (Tibetan system) and the practi­ tioner, an"Amchi." The system has something in common with the "Unani" (Greek) and"Ayurvedic" (Indian) system of medicine. Unani is the traditional system which originated in the middle east and was followed and developed in the Muslim world; whereas the Ayurvedic system is that followed by Hindus since Rig vedic times. Both are still practiced in India. Though all the three systems make USe of herbs (fresh and dry), minerals, animal products, etc., the Amchi system, having evolved in its special environment, has its own characteristics.

  • LONG and MEDIUM RANGE TARBELA INFLOW FORECAST METHODOLOGY Mr
    Pakistan Journal of Meteorology Vol. 3, Issue 6, December 2006 LONG AND MEDIUM RANGE TARBELA INFLOW FORECAST METHODOLOGY Mr. Abdul Majid∗, Mr. Tajdar Hussain*, Mr. Rizwan Malik* Abstract: The Indus has been truly called a life line of Pakistan. It is the river through which most of the water flows down to the plain of Punjab and Sindh. Most of the flows north of Tarbela are caused by the snowmelt over the elevated catchments of the northern areas. Further more melt water yield of upper Indus basin indicates large scale variation. For example the range of variation of the discharge at Bisham Qila for the month of June during the period 1965-1988 range from 1310 cusecs to about 12800 cusecs.The above two facts alone necessitate a system to predict the variability of flows of such a large extent. A methodology through which the seasonal and the monthly inflows at Tarbela could be forecast, shall constitute an important technical development since the judicial use of the available water for power and irrigation largely depend upon the advance knowledge of the incoming inflows. WAPDA attempted to tackle the problem through the technical assistance from Canada as a cooperative research program with “Wilfred Laurier University (WLU)” Waterlov and International Development research centre (IDRC). A project called Snow and Ice hydrography project came into existence for this proposal. The project is in existence since early eighties. The approach adopted in computing the seasonal and ten daily inflow is essentially based upon the use of a snow melt model called the university of British Columbia (UBS) model.

I have the privilege of forwarding the fi eld guide on mammals of Ladakh which is part of a series of bilingual (English and Ladakhi) fi eld guides developed by WWF-India. It is not just because of my involvement in the conservation issues of the state of Jammu & Kashmir, but I am impressed with the Ladakhi version of the Field Guide. As the Field Guide has been specially produced for the local youth, I hope that the Guide will help in conserving the unique mammal species of Ladakh. I also hope that the Guide will become a companion for every nature lover visiting Ladakh. I commend the efforts of the authors in bringing out this unique publication.
