During the study period from 2007 – 2012, water samples taken from three sampling sites from the study areas viz., RBOD at Gharo, near Haleji Lake and near Keenjhar Lake were analyzed for physico-chemical parameters, pesticides and heavy metals. The mean salinity value of all sampling sites was recorded. RBOD at Gharo and RBOD near Keenjhar Lake showed high salinity value as per limit of World Health Organization standard. Water samples taken from RBOD near Keenjhar Lake showed pesticide OC compounds below the Maximum Acceptable Concentration (MAC). However, no serious adverse effects of environmental pollution were detected on the aquatic biodiversity except for some minor toxic effects due to the presence of heavy metals in water. Regarding biodiversity, two species of protozoans, 104 species of arthropods, 23 species of zooplanktons, 13 species of molluscs, 228 species of birds, 28 species of mammals, 31 species of reptiles, 2 species of amphibians and 59 species of fishes were recorded from the study areas.

The Proposed Water Sector Improvement Project (WSIP) Phase-I, being negotiated between Government of Sindh and the World Bank entails a number of interventions aimed at improving the water management and institutional reforms in the province of Sindh. The second largest province in Pakistan, Sindh has approx. 5.0 Million Ha of farm area irrigated through three barrages and 14 canals. The canal command areas of Sindh are planned to be converted into 14 Area Water Boards (AWBs) whereby the management, operations and maintenance would be carried out by elected bodies. Similarly the distributaries and watercourses are to be managed by Farmers Organizations (FOs) and Watercourse Associations (WCAs), respectively. The Project focuses on the three established Area Water Boards (AWBs) of Nara, Left Bank (Akram Wah & Phuleli Canal) & Ghotki Feeder. The major project interventions include the following targets:- • Improvement of 9 main canals (726 Km) and 37 branch canals (1,441 Km). This includes new lining of 50% length of the lined reach of Akram Wah. • Control of Direct Outlets • Replacement of APMs with agreed type of modules • Improvement of 173 distributaries and minor canals (1527 Km) including 145 Km of geomembrane lining and 112 Km of concrete lining in 3 AWBs.

    Khan et al., The J. Anim. Plant Sci. 28(3):2018 STUDY OF FRESHWATER TURTLES IN SELECTED DISTRICTS OF SINDH- PAKISTAN: THREATS, ILLEGAL TRADE AND CONSERVATION M. Z. Khan, R. Kanwal and S. A. Ghalib Department of Zoology, University of Karachi Corresponding author’s email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Population estimation of freshwater turtles was conducted in selected localities from seven selected districts of Sindh. Two years surveys were carried out from 2015 to 2016. Eight species of freshwater turtles were recorded from Sindh. In 2015, population of Lissemys punctata (16.93%) was found as abundant in most of the districts of Sindh. Pangshura tecta (13.05%) and Geoclemys hamiltonii (13.49%) were recorded as common while population of Nilssonia hurum (11.56%) was estimated as less common. Chitra indica (9.23%) was recorded as rare. In 2016, slight decline in most of the turtle`s populations were observed as Lissemys punctata (15.08%), Pangshura tecta (12.74%), Geoclemys hamiltonii (12.02%), Nilssonia hurum (12.6%). Highest ratio of Shannon index diversity (2.07) was recorded from Sukkur District while Evenness index was also high in Sukkur district (0.406). Hunting and Illegal trading were recorded as major threats for their survival. Other factors include their usage in pharmaceutical, food and pet industries. Several measures have been taken for their conservation by IUCN, Sindh wildlife Department, WWF Pakistan, Zoological Survey of Pakistan, Department of Zoology (Wildlife Section), University of Karachi Key words: Freshwater turtles, Sindh, Population distribution INTRODUCTION Pakistan is extensively declining because of deterioration of natural habitat, environmental degradation, unlawful Turtles play an important role in ecological capture, urbanization, human wildlife conflict, human balance of an aquatic ecosystem.
