Sespeñe†･Marla Maniquiz-Redillas･김이형･추연욱 Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Kongju National University Cheonan City, Korea (Received : 22 June 2016, Revised: 02 August 2016, Accepted: 02 August 2016) Abstract The Philippines is a naturally water-rich archipelago capable of sustaining its ecological goods and providing services and needs of its people. Several waterbodies have been declared as natural wetlands in the country supporting the needs of community like water and food. In this study, 65 natural wetlands were considered including six sites that were identified as ‘Wetlands of International Importance’ such as Naujan Lake National Park, Agusan Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, Olango Island Wildlife Sanctuary, Tubbataha Reefs Natural Park, Las Piñas-Parañaque Critical Habitat and Ecotourism Area and Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park. There are 22 wetland types presented in this research categorizing the Philippine wetlands. Philippine wetlands are now facing tremendous challenges such as land use conversion, abuse of resources, pollution coming from domestic, industrial and agricultural activities, and climate change. This paper provides an overview of Philippine wetlands in terms of their characteristics and components, impacts in the ecosystem, and the challenges they are dealing with.

  • Current Status and Prospects of Protected Areas in the Light of the Philippine Biodiversity Conservation Priorities
    Proceedings of IUCN/WCPA-EA-4 Taipei Conference March 18-23, 2002, Taipei, Taiwan CURRENT STATUS AND PROSPECTS OF PROTECTED AREAS IN THE LIGHT OF THE PHILIPPINE BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION PRIORITIES Perry S. Ong, Ph. D. Fellow, Center for Applied Biodiversity Science, CI Science Director, Conservation International Philippines Associate Professor, Institute of Biology, UP Diliman I. INTRODUCTION The Philippines, the world’s second largest archipelago after Indonesia, covers a land area of about 300,000 km2 [1]. It is one of the 17 megadiversity countries, which between themselves contain 70 to 80 percent of global biodiversity [2]. Philippine rainforest is home to more than 1130 terrestrial wildlife species (Table 1) and between 10,000-13,000 species of plants [3] so far recorded, of which more than half are found nowhere else in the world. As such, the Philippines has also been described as Galapagos times ten [4]. It is also one of 25 global biodiversity hotspots [5, 6] with more than 97 percent of its original forest cover lost [7, 8]. In fact more original forests were lost in the last 50 years of the 20th century than what was lost in the previous 450 years combined [9]. Yet more new species are still being discovered on these islands than any other areas on earth in recent times [e.g., see 10, 11] Table 1.

  • Surveys of Wetlands and Waterbirds in Cagayan Valley, Luzon, Philippines
    FORKTAIL 20 (2004): 33–39 Surveys of wetlands and waterbirds in Cagayan valley, Luzon, Philippines MERLIJN VAN WEERD and JAN VAN DER PLOEG In November 2001 and January 2002, we searched the entire Cagayan valley, north-east Luzon, Philippines for wetlands and congre- gations of waterbirds. Five wetlands were identified that held substantial numbers of waterbirds. Important numbers of the endemic Philippine Duck Anas luzonica (Vulnerable) were observed at two lakes, as well as large numbers of Wandering Whistling-duck Dendrocygna arcuata, Northern Shoveler Anas clypeata and Great Egret Casmerodius albus. Other records included the first Philippine record of Ruddy Shelduck Tadorna ferruginea, the second Philippine record of Dunlin Calidris alpina, and the first record of Chinese Egret Egretta eulophotes (Vulnerable) on the mainland of northern Luzon. The absence of Sarus Crane Grus antigone and Spot-billed Pelican Pelecanus philippensis suggests that these species are now indeed extirpated in the Philippines. Two wetland areas, Lake Magat and Malasi lakes, qualify as wetlands of international importance under the criteria of the Ramsar convention on the basis of the count results presented here. Currently, none of the wetlands of Cagayan valley is officially protected by the Philippine government.

  • Parasitic Crustaceans in Fishes from Some Philippine Lakes
    Parasitic Crustaceans in Fishes from Some Philippine Lakes Nellie C. Lopez Institute of Biology, University of the Philippines Diliman, Quezon City Lopez NC. 2001. Parasitic crustaceans in fishes from some Philippine lakes, pp. 75-79. In CB Santiago, ML Cuvin-Aralar and ZU Basiao (eds.). Conservation and Ecological Management of Philippine Lakes in Relation to Fisheries and Aquaculture. Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, Aquaculture Department, Iloilo, Philippines; Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, Los Baños, Laguna, Philippines; and Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, Quezon City, Philippines. 187 pp. Abstract Parasitic crustaceans are among the most harmful parasites of fishes. Certain species cause disease outbreaks and mortalities in aquaculture, facilities, and sometimes in natural systems, resulting in serious economic losses. Edible fishes from some Philippine lakes also show infestation by parasitic crustaceans. The branchiuran, Argulus indicus Weber, and the copepod, Lernaea cyprinacea Linnaeus, were recovered from the skin and base of the dorsal fin, respectively, of the mudfish Channa striata from Laguna de Bay. L. cyprinacea was also found on the white goby Glossogobius giurus in Naujan Lake. In La Mesa Reservoir, the gills of wild populations of tilapias Oreochromis niloticus and Tilapia zillii, white goby, and silvery theraponid Therapon plumbeus were infected with the copepod, Ergasilus philippinensis Velasquez. An isopod, Alitropus typus Edwards, was recovered from the buccal and gill cavities of several fishes from Lake Taal, namely; the mud gudgeon Ophiocara aporos, cardinal fish Apogon thermalis, silvery theraponid, and cage cultured Oreochromis niloticus. Previous reports and above finding indicate wide host specificity of the parasites.
