Pacific Flying Foxes (Mammalia, Chiroptera) : Two New Species of Pteropus from Samoa, Probably Extinct
A tamerican museum Novitates PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CENTRAL PARK WEST AT 79TH STREET, NEW YORK, NY 10024 Number 3646, 37 pp., 14 figures, 5 tables June 25, 2009 Pacific Flying Foxes (Mammalia: Chiroptera): Two New Species of Pteropus from Samoa, Probably Extinct KRISTOFER M. HELGEN,1 LAUREN E. HELGEN,2 AND DON E. WILSON3 ABSTRACT Two new species of flying foxes (genus Pteropus) from the Samoan archipelago are described on the basis of modern museum specimens collected in the mid-19th century. A medium-sized species (P. allenorum, n. sp.) is introduced from the island of Upolu (Independent Samoa), based on a specimen collected in 1856 and deposited in the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia. It has not been collected again, and we regard it as almost certainly extinct. This species is smaller bodied and has much smaller teeth than both extant congeners recorded in the contemporary fauna of Samoa (Pteropus samoensis and P. tonganus). The closest relative of this new species may be Pteropus fundatus of northern Vanuatu. The disjunct historical distribution of these two small¬ toothed flying foxes (in Vanuatu and Samoa) suggests that similar species may have been more extensively distributed in the remote Pacific in the recent past. Another species, a very large flying fox with large teeth (P. coxi, n. sp.), is described from two skulls collected in Samoa in 1839-1841 during the U.S. Exploring Expedition; it too has not been collected since. This robust species resembles Pteropus samoensis and Pteropus anetianus of Vanuatu in craniodental conformation but is larger than other Polynesian Pteropus, and in some features it is ecomorphologically convergent on the Pacific monkey-faced bats (the pteropodid genera Pteralopex and Mirimiri). -

Additionally, few studies have directly addressed the consequences of land-use change for meliponines, and knowledge on how their communities change across gradients in surrounding landscape cover remains scarce. Here, we examine both how local and landscape-level compositions as well as forest proximity affect both meliponine species richness and abundance together with pollination networks across 30 mixed fruit orchards in Southern Thailand. The results reveal that most landscape-level factors significantly influenced both stingless bee richness and abundance. Surrounding forest cover has a strong positive direct effect on both factors, while agricultural and urbanized cover generally reduced both bee abundance and diversity. In the local habitat, there is a significant interaction between orchard size and floral richness with stingless bee richness. -

Study on Measurement and Determination Carbon Pool in Traditional Agroforestry System for Handling Climate Change
International Journal of Forestry and Horticulture (IJFH) Volume 4, Issue 2, 2018, PP 14-24 ISSN No. (Online) 2454–9487 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.20431/2454-9487.0402003 www.arcjournals.org Study on Measurement and Determination Carbon Pool in Traditional Agroforestry System for Handling Climate Change Jan Willem Hatulesila1, Cornelia M.A.Wattimena1, Ludia Siahaya1 1Forestry Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Pattimura University *Corresponding Author: Jan Willem Hatulesila, Forestry Department, Faculty of Agriculture, Pattimura University. Abstract: The forest that is the lungs of the world plays a very important role in the continuity of life on earth. Forests absorb Co2 during the process of photosynthesis and decomposition as organic matter in plant biomass. Measurement of forest productivity by biomass measurement. Forest biomass provides important information in the predicted potential of Co2 and biomass sequestration in certain ages that can be used to estimate forest productivity. This research was conducted in the community forest of Hutumuri village as one of traditional agroforestry “dusung” in Ambon Island. Beside that data base can serve as a planner base for the development of large-scale forecasts of carbon stocks for total community forest of agroforestry patterns. The carbon measurement method is done in demonstration plot for tree, sapling and forest floor level. The results show the dominant plant species for plot I in the dominance of nutmeg (Myristica fragrans), plot II durian (Durio zibethinus) and plot III duku (Lansium spp). The total measured biomass on tree vegetation was 58.52 tC / ha; forest floor was 1.71 tC / ha; top soil layer was 13 tC / ha, woody necromass was 33.56 kg 2 / m ; rough and soft litter were 1.84 tC / ha, necromass was 67.16 tC / ha. -

Introduction The genus Roepkiella Yakovlev & Witt, 2009 (Lepidoptera, Cossidae) was firstly described for Cossus rufidorsia Hampson, 1904 (type locality: Sikhim [E. India, Sikkim prov.]) by original designation (Yakovlev & Witt 2009). According to the publications (Roepke 1957; Arora 1976; Holloway 1986; Schoorl 1990; Yakovlev 2011, 2014) the genus includes 14 species, distributed in Hindustan, Indochina, Myanmar, Malacca, Borneo, Java, Sumatra, and Sulawesi. Their biology is very poorly studied. Only for R. chlorata (Swinhoe, 1892) (type locality: Sarawak, Borneo) and Roepkiella subfusca (Snellen, 1895) (type locality: [Deli, Ost Sumatra]) the feed plants were indicated: Intsia palembanica Miquel, 1861, Parkia sp. -
A Re-Evaluation of Allometric Relationships for Circulating Concentrations of Glucose in Mammals

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Purpose: The present study examined the putative relationship between circulating concentra- tions of glucose and log10 body weight in a large sample size (270) of wild species but with domes- ticated animals excluded from the analyses. Methods: A data-set of plasma/serum concentration of glucose and body weight in mammalian species was developed from the literature. Allometric re- lationships were examined. Results: In contrast to previous reports, no overall relationship for circulating concentrations of glucose was observed across 270 species of mammals (for log10 glu- cose concentration adjusted R2 = −0.003; for glucose concentration adjusted R2 = −0.003). In con- trast, a strong allometric relationship was observed for circulating concentrations of glucose in 2 Primates (for log10 glucose concentration adjusted R = 0.511; for glucose concentration adjusted R2 = 0.480). Conclusion: The absence of an allometric relationship for circulating concentrations of glucose was unexpected. A strong allometric relationship was seen in Primates.
