  • Ants (Hymenoptera: Fonnicidae) of Samoa!
    Ants (Hymenoptera: Fonnicidae) of Samoa! James K Wetterer 2 and Donald L. Vargo 3 Abstract: The ants of Samoa have been well studied compared with those of other Pacific island groups. Using Wilson and Taylor's (1967) specimen records and taxonomic analyses and Wilson and Hunt's (1967) list of 61 ant species with reliable records from Samoa as a starting point, we added published, unpublished, and new records ofants collected in Samoa and updated taxonomy. We increased the list of ants from Samoa to 68 species. Of these 68 ant species, 12 species are known only from Samoa or from Samoa and one neighboring island group, 30 species appear to be broader-ranged Pacific natives, and 26 appear to be exotic to the Pacific region. The seven-species increase in the Samoan ant list resulted from the split of Pacific Tetramorium guineense into the exotic T. bicarinatum and the native T. insolens, new records of four exotic species (Cardiocondyla obscurior, Hypoponera opaciceps, Solenopsis geminata, and Tetramorium lanuginosum), and new records of two species of uncertain status (Tetramorium cf. grassii, tentatively considered a native Pacific species, and Monomorium sp., tentatively considered an endemic Samoan form). SAMOA IS AN ISLAND CHAIN in western island groups, prompting Wilson and Taylor Polynesia with nine inhabited islands and (1967 :4) to feel "confident that a nearly numerous smaller, uninhabited islands. The complete faunal list could be made for the western four inhabited islands, Savai'i, Apo­ Samoan Islands." Samoa is of particular in­ lima, Manono, and 'Upolu, are part of the terest because it is one of the easternmost independent country of Samoa (formerly Pacific island groups with a substantial en­ Western Samoa).

  • Wallis and Futuna HEALTH SITUATION Wallis and Futuna Is Located in the South Pacific Ocean
    Wallis and Futuna HEALTH SITUATION Wallis and Futuna is located in the South Pacific Ocean. The archipelago comprises two groups of volcanic islands: Wallis (Uvea) and Futuna. The estimated population was 12 200 in 2015, with about 70% of the population living in Wallis and 30% in Futuna. Improved care and rising living standards in Wallis and Futuna have helped to control many infectious diseases, resulting in increased life expectancy and a steady decline in infant mortality. But lifestyle changes (unhealthy diet, tobacco and alcohol consumption, physical inactivity) have led to a rise in metabolic pathologies and other NCDs. NCDs and chronic diseases are major public health concerns. Cardiovascular diseases and their complications are the leading causes of death in the country, while chronic renal insufficiency is increasing. Rheumatic fever is also common, with a cohort of 300–400 cases treated regularly. Cutaneous infections, mainly erysipelas, account for http:// www.who.int/countries/en/ 50% of visits and hospitalizations. The prevalence of leptospirosis is estimated to be 840 cases per 100 000 inhabitants per year in Futuna; WHO region Western Pacific however, severe forms are rare, with a case fatality rate of 0.5%.

These aempts to move towards a single market include the Pacific Agreement on Closer Economic Relaons (PACER, 2001), the Pacific Island Countries Trade Agreement (PICTA, 2002), and the most recent aempts at rafying PACER Plus (2017). However, New Caledonia and French Polynesia are sll absent from the negoaons.

  • Australia-Oceania :: Wallis and Futuna (Overseas Collectivity of France) Introduction :: Wallis and Futuna
    The World Factbook Australia-Oceania :: Wallis and Futuna (overseas collectivity of France) Introduction :: Wallis and Futuna Background: The Futuna island group was discovered by the Dutch in 1616 and Wallis by the British in 1767, but it was the French who declared a protectorate over the islands in 1842, and took official control of them between 1886 and 1888. Notably, Wallis and Futuna was the only French colony to side with the Vichy regime during World War II, a phase that ended in May of 1942 with the arrival of 2,000 American troops. In 1959, the inhabitants of the islands voted to become a French overseas territory and officially assumed this status in July 1961.

  • The Cirripedia of New Caledonia
    The Cirripedia of New Caledonia Diana S. lONES Western Australian MlISeum [email protected] The Indo-Pacific deep-sea benthos was investigated by major expeditions such as those of «Challenger» (1873-1876), «Investigator» (1884-] 887), «Valdiva» (1898-] 899), «Siboga» (1899­ 1900), «Albatross» (1907-1910) and «Galathea» (1950-52). However, none of these expeditions col­ lected in the waters of New Caledonia and its surrounding areas. The cirripede fauna of the region was first documented through the brief report of Fischer (1884), who described the shallow water bar­ nacles of New Caledonia. Fischer briefly listed 15 species from specimens deposited in the Musee de Bordeaux by the missionaries Montrouzier and Lambert. From that time, there was no documenta­ tion of the fauna until the latter half of the 20th century, when a rigorous collection and taxonomic program was conducted in the region supported through IRD (ORSTOM) and the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris. Since 1978, numerous barnacle specimens have been collected in the deep waters off Vanuatu (MUSORSTOM 8 1994), New Caledonia, the Chesterfield and Loyalty Islands (BIOCAL 1985, MUSORSTOM 41985, LAGON 1985, MUSORSTOM 5 1986.CHALCAL2 1986, SMIB21986.SMIB31987.CORAIL2 1988,MUSORSTOM61989.VAUBAN 1989,ALIS 1989, SMIB61990,BERYX21992,BATHUS21993,SMIB81993,HALIPR0219(6),the Wall ace and Futuna Islands, Combe.

Examination of these collections has yielded an exceptional diversity of thoracican cirripedes. Buckeridge (1994, 1997) provided a comprehensive account of the deep-sea Verrucomorpha (Cirripedia) from collections made by several French cruises in the New Caledonian area and the Wallis and Futuna Islands.

  • What Development for Wallis and Futuna? 83
    What development for Wallis and Futuna? 83 What development for Wallis and Futuna? Or, from the Tavaka Migration to the emigration to Metropolitan France Frédéric Angleviel Résumé Le développement de ce minuscule Territoire d’Outre-Mer passe par un nouvel équilibre entre les migrations de travail et l’auto-développement. Aussi, l’on étudiera tout d’abord le souhait des élus de réduire le flux migratoire vers la Nouvelle-Calédonie au bénéfice de la France métropolitaine. Puis, on analysera le rapport de la commission chargée d’envisager toutes les pistes d’auto-développement. Apparaît alors la question du développement durable des microcosmes insulaires et de l’intégration éventuelle de la religion ou de la coutume dans la réflexion politico-administrative. Abstract The development of this tiny overseas territory is conditioned by a new balance between workers’ migrations and self-development. We will thus study first of all the wish of local politicians to reduce migration flows towards New Caledonia in favour of Metropolitan France. Then, we will analyse the report of the committee set up to consider all tracks that might lead to self-development. What emerges then is the question of sustainable development in island microcosms and the possible integration of religion or of custom in political and administrative reflection.
