Main Street, Portland, OR 97205, U.S.A., [email protected] Abstract We describe assumed tiger habitat characteristics andattempt to identifY potential tiger habitats in the Garo Hills region of Megha\aya, North East India. Conserving large forest tracts and protected wildlife habitats provides an opportunity for restoring populations of wide-ranging wildlife such as tigers and elepha.TJts. Basedon limited fieldobservations coupled with focused group discussion with local villagers andsenior staffmembers of the wildlife wing ofthe State Forest Departmentof Megahlaya,we identified 20 localities in South GaroHills, which if protected andmanaged for tiger conservation, could help restore this fast disappearing species. An integrated multidisciplinary landscape scale approach to wildlife management, including designation of intact forest corridors among protected areas and reserved forests, would greatlycontribute to conservation of tigers andoverall biodiversity of this region. Keywords: tiger, population viability, landscape approach, conservation, corridors, core habitats Introduction Although the disappearance of tigers from The first ever scientific census of tiger some parks and reserves may be due, in part, to (Pantheratigris tigris) populations by the National poaching and other anthropogenic stressors, it is Tiger Conservation Authority (New Delhi) and still vital to defineand provide for their basic needs Wildlife Institute ofIndia (Dehradun) during 2007 for habitat and prey. -

Diversity of butterfly communities of a tropical rain forest of Bu Gia Map National Park in South Vietnam was studied in four different habitat types (the natural forest, the disturbed forest, the bamboo forest, and the stream sides in the forest) in December 2008 and April 2009. A total of 112 species with 1703 individuals of Papilionoidae (except Lycaenidae) were recorded. The proportion of rare species tends to decrease from the natural forest to the stream sides, while the proportion of common species tends to increase from the natural forest to the stream sides. The stream sides have the greatest individual number, while the disturbed forest contains the greatest species number. The bamboo forest has the least species and individual numbers. -

India Ashok Kumar Department of Zoology, BSNV PG College, Lucknow, (U.P.), INDIA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: The city Jhansi is famous for the fort, gardens and surrounding hilly areas. These gardens and hilly areas have supported for butterflies and other insects. The butterflies are essential part of any natural ecosystem as their adults performs pollination. They are highly mobile organism and are able to maintain connectivity between the fragmental habitats. The larval stages are herbivorous and cause economic damage but adult are beneficial as pollinators of several trees and herbaceous flora. They are vulnerable to changes in flower supply resulting from deforestation and environmental pollution hence they are the biological indicators of pollution. The present study was conducted regarding the different selected sites visited by butterflies, their foraging activity and abundance at different sites of Jhansi. During the visit some species of butterflies were collected as flower visitors on different species of flowering plants (garden, cultivated, semi wild and wild) in selected areas. The species of collected butterflies were showed the most common and highly active species throughout the day. Some species namely Pieris canidia indica, lxias mrianne (Cramer), Catopsilia crocale (Cramer), Catopsilia pyranthe (Linn.), Eurema hecabe fimbriata (Wallace) Colias electo fieldi and Colias erate (Esper) were observed mostly on the flowering plants of each site during the study. -

Caste, Kinship and Sex Ratios in India Tanika Chakraborty and Sukkoo Kim NBER Working Paper No. 13828 March 2008 JEL No. J12,N35,O17 ABSTRACT This paper explores the relationship between kinship institutions and sex ratios in India at the turn of the twentieth century. Since kinship rules varied by caste, language, religion and region, we construct sex-ratios by these categories at the district-level using data from the 1901 Census of India for Punjab (North), Bengal (East) and Madras (South). -
Trip Details
INDIA - WESTERN GHATS FEB. 25-MAR. 9, 2020 India - Western Ghats Feb. 25-Mar. 9, 2020 Sri Lanka Bay Owl (phodilus assimilis) Janne Thomsen and Carsten Fog Side 1 INDIA - WESTERN GHATS FEB. 25-MAR. 9, 2020 Maps of tour Janne Thomsen and Carsten Fog Side 2 INDIA - WESTERN GHATS FEB. 25-MAR. 9, 2020 Introduction In respect of the livelihood of the bird guides of the region, this report does not provide GPS coordinates for the localities of the birds seen on the trip. Part of the salary of the bird guides consists of the tips they receive from satisfied customers and since bird guiding is a seasonal job, with a maximum extension of 6 month a year, it is very important to make sure that the professional bird guides have a viable business year after year. Their knowledge of the area and its natural life should therefore be guarded and appreciated. Having said that, we had a fabulous trip during which we saw 257 species of birds, 24 species of mammals, 88 species of butterflies and 9 species of reptiles. The landscapes of the Western Ghats of Kerala and Tamil Nadu are fabulous and uncrowded with huge variety. We were blessed with very fine weather and reasonable temperatures, meaning not too hot for a couple of Scandinavians used to a little colder climate. The people were friendly, the hotels good, the food excellent and the landscape and wildlife incredible. Acknowledgement Thanks to Thomas Zacharias, Kalypso Adventures, for the great trip arrangement. It is so nice to communicate with a person who acts promptly, is serious and flexible, and is proactive and Thomas is all of that.
