    Reproduction in captive female Cape porcupines (Hystrix africaeaustralis) R. J. van Aarde Mammal Research Institute, University ofPretoria, Pretoria 0002, South Africa Summary. Captive females attained sexual maturity at an age of 9\p=n-\16months and con- ceived for the first time when 10\p=n-\25months old. Adult females were polyoestrous but did not cycle while lactating or when isolated from males. The length of the cycle varied from 17 to 42 days (mean \m=+-\s.d. 31\m=.\2\m=+-\6\m=.\5days; n = 43) and females experienced 3\p=n-\7 sterile cycles before conceiving. Pregnancy lasted for 93\p=n-\94days (93\m=.\5\m=+-\0\m=.\6days; N = 4) and litter intervals varied from 296 to 500 days (385 \m=+-\60\m=.\4;n = 10). Litter size varied from 1 to 3 (1\m=.\5\m=+-\0\m=.\66;n = 165) and the well-developed precocial young weighed 300\p=n-\400g (351 \m=+-\47\m=.\4g; n= 19) at birth. Captive females reproduced throughout the year with most litters (78\m=.\7%;n = 165) being produced between August and March. Introduction Cape porcupines (Hystrix africaeaustralis) inhabit tropical forests, woodlands, grassland savannas, semi-arid and arid environments throughout southern Africa. Despite this widespread distribution little attention has been given to these nocturnal, Old World hystricomorph rodents, which shelter and breed in subterranean burrows, rock crevices and caves. Some information on reproduction in female porcupines has been published on the crested porcupine (H. cristata) (Weir, 1967), the Himalayan porcupine (H. hodgsoni) (Gosling, 1980) and the Indian porcupine (H.

  • Andhra Pradesh Forestry Project: Forest Restoration and Joint Forest Management in India
    Andhra Pradesh Forestry Project: Forest Restoration and Joint Forest Management in India Project Description India’s 1988 forest policy stipulates that forests are to be managed primarily for ecological conservation, and the use of forest resources for local use or non-local industry is of secondary emphasis. In Andhra Pradesh, local people living near forests are forming Vana Samrakshna Samithi (VSS), village organisations dedicated to forest restoration. In partnership with the state forestry department more than 5,000 VSS are working to restore more than 1.2 million hectares of degraded forests. VSS share all of the non-timber forest products (grasses, fuel-wood, fruit, and medicines) amongst themselves, and receive all of the income from the harvest of timber and bamboo. Half of this income is set aside for the future development and maintenance of the forest. In this way the long-term sustainability of the project is protected and government support is only required while the forest returns to a productive state. Ecosystem type The Eastern Highlands Tropical Moist Deciduous Forests are considered globally outstanding for the communities of large vertebrates and intact ecological processes that they support. The region contains 84,000 km2 of intact habitat, some in blocks of more than 5,000 km2. The region is a refuge for many large vertebrates such as wolves (Canis lupus) and gaur (Bos gaurus), and threatened large mammals such as the tiger (Panthera tigris), sloth bear (Melursus ursinus), wild dog (Cuon alpinus), chousingha (Tetracerus quadricornis), blackbuck (Antilope cervicapra), and chinkara (Gazella bennettii). The only endemic mammal is a threatened Rhinolophidae bat, Hipposideros durgadasi.

Limited physiological measurements exist for the digestive mean retention time, digestibility, basal physiology of porcupines. We measured CH4 emission in three captive Indian metabolic rate, colonic separation mechanism crested porcupines (Hystrix indica; 16.1 ± 2.7 kg) fed a diet of pelleted lucerne, and measured feed intake, digestibility, and digesta mean retention time (MRT) of a solute and three particle markers (<2, 10 and 20 mm). Marker excretion patterns suggested secondary peaks indicative of caecotrophy, with MRTs of 26.4 h for the solute and 31.5, 26.8 and 26.2 h for the three particle markers, respectively. At a dry matter intake of 58 ±10 g/kg body mass0.75/day, Received: 29 November 2018 porcupines digested 49 and 35% organic matter and neutral detergent fibre, Revised: 9 January 2019 respectively, which is in the lower range of that expected for horses on a similar Accepted: 18 February 2019 diet.

  • Traditional Medicinal Animal Use by Xhosa and Sotho Communities in the Western Cape Province, South Africa Willem A
    Nieman et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine (2019) 15:34 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13002-019-0311-6 RESEARCH Open Access Traditional medicinal animal use by Xhosa and Sotho communities in the Western Cape Province, South Africa Willem A. Nieman1* , Alison J. Leslie1 and Anita Wilkinson2 Abstract Background: The use of animals and animal-derived materials in traditional medicine constitutes an important part of the belief systems of indigenous African cultures. It is believed to be rapidly expanding in South Africa, where traditional healers are estimated to outnumber western doctors by 2000:1 in some areas, with an overall clientele consisting of 60–80% of South African citizens. Despite concerns about the impact of the trade in traditional medicine on biodiversity, there has been only limited research on this topic in South Africa. Methods: Traditional Xhosa and Sotho healers operating from impoverished, rural communities in the Boland Region of the Western Cape Province were consulted to provide a comprehensive inventory of the number and frequency of animals used and sold. Species richness estimators, diversity indices, and a relative cultural importance (RCI) index were used to highlight species of concern and assess market dynamics. Results: A total of 26 broad use categories for 12 types of animal parts or products from 71 species or morphospecies were recorded. The most commonly sold items were skin pieces, oil or fat, and bones. Results showed that leopard, chacma baboon, Cape porcupine, monitor lizard species, puff adder, African rock python, and black-backed jackal were the species most used in the traditional medicinal trade.

Rössner1,2,3 1SNSB Bayerische Staatssammlung für Paläontologie und Geologie, Richard-Wagner-Str. 10, 80333 Munich, Germany 2Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Richard-Wagner-Str. 10, 80333 Munich, Germany 3GeoBio-Center LMU, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Richard-Wagner-Str. 10, 80333 Munich, Germany Keywords: Abstract biogeography morphology The water deer, Hydropotes inermis (Cervidae, Mammalia), is a small, solitary cervid. It is native to phenotype China and Korea, but some feral populations also live in Europe. In contrast to other deer species, ecology where males are characterized by antlers and small/no upper canines, H. inermis lacks antlers, behaviour genetics but grows long upper canines. For this phenotype and particularities of its biology, the species phylogeny holds considerable potential not only for our understanding of cervid biology, but also for important Cervidae H. inermis fossil record questions about basic developmental and regenerative biology. However, populations conservation are decreasing, and many of the pressing scientific questions motivated by this peculiar species are still open. Here, we review the most different aspects of the species’ biology and discuss scientific publications ranging from the year of the species’ first description in 1870 until 2015. We briefly Article history: sketch its state of conservation, and we discuss the current understanding of its phylogeny.

  • Havens of Biodiversity, and Places That Allow People to Connect with Natural Habitats and Ecosystems, Will Become Increasingly More Valuable for Future Generations
    Supplement to Veld & Flora, Vol. 93(4) December 2007 1 booklet3_FINAL_for print.indd 1 2007/11/02 10:50:33 AM FOREWORD The Botanical Society of South Africa (BotSoc) has been a partner and supporter of the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI) and its forerunners for over 90 years. This supplement to Veld & Flora focuses on other “biodiversity” (birds, mammals, insects, etc.) rather than just our core interest, which is “plant diversity”. It is an example of BotSoc embracing the change which Dr Bruce McKenzie has come about since SANBI replaced its predecessor Executive Director, BotSoc the National Botanical Institute (NBI) and also supports one of the principles contained in BotSoc’s Centenary Charter (see Veld & Flora, March 2006) which outlines our commitment to supporting SANBI and its mandate. In this regard the BotSoc warmly welcomes the first CEO of SANBI, Dr Tanya Abrahamse, and looks forward to working with her and her team in tackling new challenges, some of which she has spelt out in her foreword to the supplement.
