Oligodon kampucheaensis sp. nov. differs from other Indochinese and Southeast Asian species of Oligodon by having 15–15–15 dorsal scale rows; 164 ventral scales; 39 subcaudal scales; anal plate un- divided; deep bifurcated hemipenes, lacking papillae and spines extending to subcaudal scale 11; 17 transverse cream and black-edged bands on body; three bands on tail; eight or nine scales long between dorsal bands; white ventrolateral spots on the lateral margin of every dark brown squarish or subrectangular ventral blotch. The hemipenial characters place it as the tenth species of the O. cyclurus group but it has a lower dorsal scale count than other species in this group.

Mycosphere 6(3), 356–384, doi 10.5943/mycosphere/6/3/11 Abstract A total of 299 substrate samples collected throughout the Sultanate of Oman were analyzed for myxomycetes and myxomycete-like organisms (MMLO) with a combined approach, preparing one moist chamber culture and one agar culture for each sample. We recovered 8 forms of Myxobacteria, 2 sorocarpic amoebae (Acrasids), 19 known and 6 unknown taxa of protostelioid amoebae (Protostelids), and 50 species of Myxomycetes. Moist chambers and agar cultures completed each other. No method alone can detect the whole diversity of myxomycetes as the most species-rich group of MMLO. A significant overlap between the two methods was observed only for Myxobacteria and some myxomycetes with small sporocarps.

Meanwhile, with rattan resources decreasing due to over-harvesting and loss of forest ecosystem there is an urgent need to stop this trend and find ways to conserve this biodiversity that play an important economic role for the country. This manual is one step towards sustainable rattan management as it allows to show/display the diversity of rattan and its contribution.

  • Developing Partnerships for Conservation in the Cardamom Mountains, Cambodia
    Volume 10: Protected Areas and Sustainable Tourism 53 Developing Partnerships for Conservation in the Cardamom Mountains, Cambodia P. Dearden1, S. Gauntlet2 and B. Nollen3 1University of Victoria, Victoria, Canada 2Wildlife Alliance, Phnom Penh, Cambodia 3 International Consultancy Europe, Bangkok, Thailand Abstract Protected areas owned and operated by national agencies have long been the mainstay of global conservation planning. However much more needs to be done to conserve the biodiversity of the broader landscape than can be achieved solely within the confines of protected area systems run by national governments. This paper describes an initiative in the Cardamom Mountains, Cambodia, where conservation planning embraces a large number of stakeholders using a variety of approaches to achieve conservation goals. The Cardamom Mountains cover some 880 000 ha of seasonal rainforest in SW Cambodia and are thought to be the largest contiguous extent of this forest formation remaining in mainland SE Asia. Many species, such as elephants, tigers, banteng and dhole that are regionally rare can still be found in the forests. The area is also home to the world’s largest population of Siamese crocodiles and various other critically endangered species, especially turtles. The area is coming under increasing pressure from both legal and illegal activities and conservation groups have been pro- active in designing and implementing a variety of approaches that accept the needs for economic development, but strive to achieve this in a sustainable manner. In the South West Cardamoms Wildlife Alliance, a US-based NGO has partnered with the private sector to access funds that allow such plans to be implemented in a manner consistent with government policy.

Rub‘ al Khali, known as the Great Sandy Desert and as the "Empty Quarter", extends over much of the south-east and beyond the southern frontier. Largely unexplored, Rub‘ al Khali has an estimated area of about 777,000 km2. An extension of the Syrian Desert projects into northern Saudi Arabia, and extending southeast from this region is An Nafud, an upland desert of red sand covering an area of about 57,000 km2. Ad Dahna’, a narrow extension of this desert, links An Nafud and Rub‘ al Khali. A central plateau region, broken in the east by a series of uplifts, extends south from An Nafud. Several wadis (watercourses), dry except in the rainy season, traverse the plateau region. The western limits of the latter are delineated by a mountain range extending generally northwest and southeast along the eastern edge of Al hijāz and Asir regions.

    Neuanfang – oder die Frage nach dem Warum Die Welt mit jeder Reise einen Schritt besser machen. Unser Manifest Neuanfang – oder die Frage nach dem Warum … Neuanfang? Ist es berechtigt in dieser Zeit von einem Neuanfang zu sprechen? Ich meine Ja. Wir erleben gerade eine der schwersten Krisen der letzten Jahrzehnte, die mich und meine Firma zutiefst getroffen hat. Eine Krise stellt Fragen an uns, geht an unsere Substanz. Auf was haben wir unser Haus des Lebens gebaut? Hält unsere Vision, unser Lebensentwurf? Krise kommt vom griechischen Wort krynein, was soviel wie Ent- scheidungszeit bedeutet. Krisen sind Zeiten der Ent – Täuschung – wo haben wir uns getäuscht oder täuschen lassen? Krisen sind der ultimative „reality check“ unseres Lebens. Vielleicht ging es Ihnen ähnlich in dieser Zeit? Was hat die Krise zu Ihnen gesagt, welche Antworten haben Sie gefunden? Die Frage, die diese Krise an mich gestellt hat, war die „Warum-Frage“. Warum mache ich das, was ich mache? Warum gibt es Hauser? Warum arbeite ich im Tourismus, obwohl das nie mein Wunsch war? Einige Auswüchse der Tourismusindustrie waren mir schon früh suspekt, lehne ich auch heute noch ab und ich weiß, dass auch in unserem Kundenkreis viele diese Skepsis teilen. Ich wollte mit meiner Arbeit und meinem Leben die Welt besser machen. Mir war es immer wichtig einen Beitrag zu leisten, auch wenn das vielleicht naiv und pathe- tisch klingt. Aber die letzten Wochen haben mir gezeigt, dass dieses Bedürfnis zutiefst in mir steckt und mich stetig antreibt. Das war auch immer mein Wunsch mit Hauser Exkursionen. Wir als Team erleben gerade mehr denn je was uns antreibt und worauf es uns ankommt: Zusammenhalt, das Gespräch mit Ihnen, die Hoffnung in die Zukunft.
