Editor in charge: Uwe Fritz Abstract Two new species of geckos of the genus Cnemaspis Strauch, 1887 are described from the Western Ghats of Kerala using an integrated taxo- nomic approach employing phylogenetic and multivariate morphometric methods. We provide a preliminary 16S rRNA tree of the Indian Cnemaspis and ascertain the phylogenetic placement of the two new species within the wynadensis clade. Our morphometric analysis indi- cates that, although there was overlap in the morphospace across species, the morphospace occupied by the two new species were consider- ably different from most other species within the wynadensis clade. Both the species Viz. C. zacharyi sp. nov. and C. chengodumalaensis sp.

  • Forest Statistics 2016
    Kerala Forest Department Forest Statistics 2016 Prepared by-Statistics wing, Forest headquarters,Thiruvananthapuram. Preface The State of Kerala is endowed with rich natural resources. Tropical climate with plenty of sunshine and rainfall favours forests with rich biodiversity and endemism. Western Ghats, one of the Biodiversity hotspots, is running all along the length of Kerala and forms its eastern boundary. Increasing population and changing lifestyles of the people is exerting great pressure on forests. The greatest challenge faced by present day foresters is to accommodate developmental needs without causing destruction of its rich forests. A manager has to base his decisions on the available data/ information on the subject. The broader and the accurate data base better will be the quality of decisions and efficiency of administration. Analysis of the past performance is a pre-requisite for developing future strategies of management. ‘Forest Statistics’ is one such effort made by Statistics Wing headed by Deputy Director (Statistics), to compile and provide vital statistical data much needed by the policy makers to formulate future policies. It is equally needed by various Scientific Institutions, Research Scholars and students of science in their endeavour. I hope this compilation of data base about the Kerala Forest Department will be of value for various segments of the society.

No part of this volume may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means, electronic or mechanical, including photocopying, recording, or by any information storage and retrieval system, without permission in writing from Sawtooth Software, Inc. FOREWORD These proceedings are a written report of the twenty-first Sawtooth Software Conference, held in San Diego, California, September 25-27, 2019. Two-hundred attendees participated. The focus of the Sawtooth Software Conference continues to be quantitative methods in marketing research. The authors were charged with delivering presentations of value to both the most sophisticated and least sophisticated attendees. Topics included conjoint analysis, surveying on mobile platforms, MaxDiff, market segmentation and classification, experimental design, and the perils of establishing causality in observational data. The papers and discussant comments are in the words of the authors and very little copyediting was performed. At the end of each of the papers are photographs of the authors and co-authors. We appreciate their cooperation for these photos! It lends a personal touch and makes it easier for readers to recognize them at the next conference. We are grateful to these authors for continuing to make this conference such a valuable event. We feel that the Sawtooth Software conference fulfills a multi-part mission: a) It advances our collective knowledge and skills, b) Independent authors regularly challenge the existing assumptions, research methods, and our software, c) It provides an opportunity for the group to renew friendships and network. We are also especially grateful to the efforts of our steering committee who for many years now have helped this conference be such a success: Christopher Chapman, Keith Chrzan, Eleanor Feit, Joel Huber, and David Lyon.

    rism OPEN ACCESS Freely available online ou & H f T o o s l p a i t n a r l i u t y o J Journal of Tourism & Hospitality ISSN: 2167-0269 Research Article To Examine the Potential and Scope of Ecotourism in Kerala with a Special Focus on Tourists to Ecotourism Destinations in Trivandrum Meera Ranjith* Department of Geography, University of Mumbai, India ABSTRACT "Around the world, ecotourism has been hailed as a panacea: a way to fund conservation and research, protect fragile and pristine ecosystems, benefit rural communities, promote development in poor countries, enhance ecological and cultural sensitivity, instill environmental awareness and social conscience in the travel industry, and satisfy and educate the discriminating tourist". At the threshold of the new millennium, tourism has emerged as the biggest industry of the future. Tourism today is an economic activity of immense global importance. Perhaps there is hardly any other field of activity where so many people are involved directly or indirectly. Tourism has found a niche for itself as a very effective instrument for generating employment, earning foreign exchange, and thereby facilitating overall development. Kerala is popularly known as' God's Own Country'. Tourism is the fastest growing industry in Kerala and the State Government has been earnestly supporting the tourism sector and much of its growth is concentrated in natural areas. Changes in the market forces as well as move towards environmentally sensitive and sustainable forms of tourism offers the maximum potential for the promotion of ecotourism in Kerala. Kerala has excellent natural resources, several wildlife sanctuaries, and National parks.

  • Further Additions to the Scapigerous Impatiens of Kerala with Notes on Its Ecological Peculiarities and Conservation Status
    Volume-5, Issue-3, July-Sept-2015 Coden: IJPAJX-CAS-USA, Copyrights@2015 ISSN-2231-4490 Received: 12th June-2015 Revised: 4th July -2015 Accepted: 4th July-2015 Short Communication FURTHER ADDITIONS TO THE SCAPIGEROUS IMPATIENS OF KERALA WITH NOTES ON ITS ECOLOGICAL PECULIARITIES AND CONSERVATION STATUS Dantas K.J.*, N. Sasidharan and P. Sujanapal Kerala Forest Research Institute, Peechi, Thrissur 680 653, Kerala, India *Corresponding Author: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The occurrence of three scapigerous Impatiens, I. dendricola, I. stocksii and I. lawsonii are reported for the first time from Kerala. I. dendricola and I. stocksii are so far known from the Karnataka part of Western Ghats and I. lawsonii from Nilgiris of Tamil Nadu. Conservation Status and intraspecific variations were reassessed based on the latest information. Key words: Balasaminaceae, Scapigerous, Impatiens, Western Ghats, Kerala INTRODUCTION Impatiens is the largest genus of the family Balsaminaceae with more than 1,000 species distributed in the tropical and subtropical regions of the Old World as well as in the northern temperate regions [6, 9]. The genus has higher per cent of endemics, of which most of them are restricted to narrow geographic regions. According to Bhaskar, there are 107 species and 14 infraspecific taxa in South India [3]. As many as 28 species and one variety of scapigerous Impatiens are reported from south India. Among them, I. acaulis is the only species with extended distribution pattern up to Sri Lanka. Rest of the species are endemic to the rain forests of Western Ghats [3, 13, 14]. During the floristic explorations in Kannur and Wayanad Districts of Kerala, the authors have collected several specimens of scapigerous Impatiens from the evergreen forests above 750 m msl.
