Table 7: Species Changing IUCN Red List Status 2007 Red List: Table 7 Table 7: Species changing IUCN Red List Status Species may move between categories for a variety of reasons, including genuine improvement or deterioration in status, new information being available about the species that was not known at the time of the previous assessment, taxonomic changes, or mistakes being made in previous assessments (e.g., incorrect information used previously, missapplication of the IUCN Red List Criteria, etc.). To help Red List users interpret the changes between the current and the previous Red List, a summary of species that have changed category for 2007 and the main reason for the change in status is provided in the table below. IUCN Red List Categories: EX - Extinct, EW - Extinct in the Wild, CR - Critically Endangered, EN - Endangered, VU - Vulnerable, LR/cd - Lower Risk/conservation dependent, NT - Near Threatened (includes LR/nt - Lower Risk/near threatened), DD - Data Deficient, LC - Least Concern (includes LR/lc - Lower Risk, least concern). Reasons for change: G - Genuine status change (genuine improvement or deterioration in the species' status); N - Non-genuine status change (i.e., status changes due to new information, improved knowledge of the criteria, incorrect data used previously, taxonomic revision, etc.) IUCN Red List IUCN Red Red List Scientific name Common name (2006) List (2007) Reason for change version Category

Accepted 1 June, 2011 Turtle hybrids have been found in some taxa, but so far, studies on interspecific hybridization between Mauremy reevesii and Mauremy sinensis have not been reported. Recently, we obtained three specimens (Hy1, Hy2, Hy3 )))with unusual morphological characteristics from pet trade Market, which are suspected to be hybrids rather than new species, because they were morphologies intermediate between M. reevesii and M. sinensis . In further study, we analyzed two aspects; morphological characteristics and molecular data, separately. The morphological characteristics showed that the pattern of the carapace, the plastron and neck stripes of the three specimens was between that of M. reevesii and M. sinensis (the morphological features of Hy1 and Hy2 have more resemblance with those of M. sinensis , and those of Hy3 have more resemblance with those of M. reevesii ). In molecular analyses, two mitochondrial genes (12S, cytb) and two nuclear genes (RAG-1, R35) were respectively cloned from each suspected specimen. One sequence was obtained for each mitochondrial gene, while two different sequences were obtained for each nuclear gene.

  • Phylogenetic Relationships of the Asian Box Turtles of the Genus Cuora Sensu Lato (Reptilia: Bataguridae) Inferred from Mitochondrial DNA Sequences
    ZOOLOGICAL SCIENCE 19: 1305–1312 (2002) 2002 Zoological Society of Japan Phylogenetic Relationships of the Asian Box Turtles of the Genus Cuora sensu lato (Reptilia: Bataguridae) Inferred from Mitochondrial DNA Sequences Masanao Honda1*†, Yuichirou Yasukawa1, Ren Hirayama2 and Hidetoshi Ota1 1Tropical Biosphere Research Center, University of the Ryukyus, Nishihara, Okinawa 903-0213, Japan 2Faculty of Information, Teikyo Heisei University, Ichihara, Chiba 290-0193, Japan ABSTRACT—Phylogenetic relationships of the genus Cuora sensu lato (Cuora sensu stricto and Cisto- clemmys) and other testudinoid genera were inferred from variations in 882 base positions of mitochondrial 12S and 16S rRNA genes. Results yielded a robust support to the monophyly of a group (Cuora group) consisting of Cuora sensu lato and the monotypic Pyxidea. Within the Cuora group, the continental Cuora (sensu stricto) and the two subspecies of Ci. flavomarginata constituted two well-supported monophyletic groups. Distinctly small interspecific genetic distances in the former groups suggested that in the continent speciations in Cuora took place much later than the primary divergences in the Cuora group, or speciations in other related genera, such as Mauremys. Our analyses failed to provide a substantial support to the monophyly of any other combinations of taxa within the Cuora group, including Cuora in broad and strict senses, and Cistoclemmys as consisting of Ci. galbinifrons and Ci. flavomarginata. Besides these, our results also suggested the non-monophyly for the Batagurinae and the Geoemydinae, and sister relation- ships of the Bataguridae with Testudinidae rather than with the Emydidae.

The present geological period has more species than any other, yet the current rate of extinction of species is greater now than at any time in the past. Ecosystems and communities are being degraded and destroyed, and species are being driven to extinction. The species that persist are losing genetic variation as the number of individuals in populations shrinks, unique populations and subspecies are destroyed, and remaining populations become increasingly isolated from one another. The cause of this loss of biological diversity at all levels is the range of human activity that alters and destroys natural habitats to suit human needs.” (Primack, 2002). CapeNature launched its State of Biodiversity Programme (SoBP) to assess and monitor the state of biodiversity in the Western Cape in 1999. This programme delivered its first report in 2002 and these reports are updated every five years. The current report (2007) reports on the changes to the state of vertebrate biodiversity and land under conservation usage.

Its hybrid status was confirmed by a comparison of a 1036 bp fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene with the putative mother (C. shanen- sis) and genomic ISSR fingerprinting. This is the first report of an intergeneric hybrid between very distantly related geoemydid turtles. All previous geoemydid intergeneric hybrids have been crossings within or between two sister clades containing the currently accepted genera (Chinemys, Mauremys, Ocadia) and (Cuora, Pyxidea). Key words. - Cyclemys, Ocadia, testudines, intergeneric hybrid. Introduction are only known from few pet trade specimens, might also be hybrids. Recently several new cases of intergeneric chelonian hybrids became known to science (reviewed in Galgon The specimen. - The turtle described below hatched in and Fritz, 2002). Most of them belong to the Southeast the live collection of M. Schilde from an egg of a Asian family Geoemydidae, long known under its junior Cyclemys shanensis, laid August 13, 2002. The second synonym Bataguridae. However, current research on the egg of the same clutch did not develop.

  • Vocal Learning in Grey Parrots (Psittacus Erithacus): Effects of Social Interaction, Reference, and Context
    The Auk 111(2):300-313, 1994 VOCAL LEARNING IN GREY PARROTS (PSITTACUS ERITHACUS): EFFECTS OF SOCIAL INTERACTION, REFERENCE, AND CONTEXT IRENE M. PEPPERBERG Departmentof Ecologyand EvolutionaryBiology, University of Arizona, Tucson,Arizona 85721, USA ABSTR•cr.--Formany passerines,the extent,timing, and even presenceof allospecificvocal learning can be influencedby the form of input that is received.Little data exist,however, on vocal learning in parrots (Psittacidae). I have previously proposed that such vocallearning proceeds most readily when input is (1) referential,(2) contextuallyapplicable, and (3) interactive.The referentialaspect demonstrates the meaningof the codeto be taught, the contextualaspect demonstrates the use that can be made of the information contained in the code, and the interactive aspectprovides explicit training that is constantlyadjusted to the level of the learner. To obtain information on the relative importanceof thesethree aspectsof input on learning in a mimetic species,I used three different conditionsto train two juvenile Grey Parrots(Psittacus erithacus) to produceEnglish labelsto identify various commonobjects. Each bird experienced:(1) audiotapedtutoring, which was nonreferential, noninteractive,and did not demonstratecontextual applicability; (2) videotapes,which pro- vided reference and limited information about context, but which were noninteractive; and (3) live human tutors, who interactivelymodeled the meaning and use of the labelsto be learned.The birdslearned only from the live tutors.A third parrot,trained on a separateset of labelsby tutorswho provided only limited referenceand contextfor thosevocalizations, learnedto producethat setof labelswithout comprehension.The data suggestthat, even for birds known for their mimetic abilities, social interaction, reference, and full contextual experienceare important factorsin learning to produceand comprehendan allospecificcode.

However, the native distribution has been extended by human-aided translocations. The turtle lives in freshwater habitats in lowland areas with still or slowly moving water.

  • Terrestrial Vertebrate Monitoring Channel Islands National Park 1993 Annual Report
    Terrestrial Vertebrate Monitoring Channel Islands National Park 1993 Annual Report Catherin A. Schwemm Channel Islands National Park 1901 Spinnaker Drive Ventura, CA 93001 January, 1995 Channel Islands National Park Technical Report CHIS - 1994 - 02 ABSTRACT Terrestrial vertebrate monitoring was begun at Channel Islands National Park during the spring of 1993. Previously developed monitoring protocols for island fox, island deer mice, pacific slender salamanders, and several species of lizard were implemented on San Miguel, Anacapa, and Santa Barbara islands. Estimates of population size and density are presented for two island fox grids and five deer mouse sampling grids. Results are presented for seven amphibian/reptile sampling transects, although data obtained were insufficient for population or density analysis. This being the first year of monitoring there was very little information from previous sampling available for comparison. Where past data exists or relevant studies have been completed, such information is compared with our data. Much time was spent this first year on transforming what was proposed in the written protocol into what would actually work in the field. Mostly as a result of trial and error, we have made changes to the protocol where needed. These are mainly changes in timing or location of sampling, generally not in sampling procedure. The nature of these modifications and grounds for their implementation are discussed. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The following people assisted with field work: Glen Conant, Tim Coonan, Heidi David, Beth Fulsom, Jack Gillooly, Tree Gottschalk, Marie Lindsay, Carmen Lombardo, Julie Pearson, Annie Swank, Sandy Winkler, Ron Walder, and Ian Williams.
