Evaluating protected areas’ coverage of threats to terrestrial biodiversity
Abstract Protected areas (PAs) are vital for biodiversity conservation and have expanded globally. However, increasing pressures on biodiversity make it difficult to achieve conservation goals. Using threat probability maps based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List and the World Database of Protected Areas, we analyzed the ...

Investigation of amphibians and reptiles in Wuyi Mountain Tongmu area and Mangdang Mountain National Nature Reserve, Fujian province [PDF]
福建茫荡山、武夷山国家级自然保护区位于我国东南部的仙霞岭—武夷山脉,生态环境良好,动植物资源丰富,是全球生物多样性保护的重要区域之一。两栖动物和爬行动物在脊椎动物的进化历程中扮演着十分重要的角色,同时也是我国受威胁程度最高的两个生物类群。本文于2015年9月至2016年10月采用样线法对福建茫荡山和武夷山两个保护区的两栖和爬行动物进行了初步的调查研究,并结合历史文献数据进行分析,获得结果如下: (1)茫荡山自然保护区有两栖动物9科22属33种,其中蛙科和姬蛙属为优势科、属 ...

Exploring gaps, biases, and research priorities in the evidence for reptile conservation actions
Abstract With over 21% of reptile species threatened with extinction, there is an urgent need to ensure conservation actions to protect and restore populations are informed by relevant, reliable evidence. We examined the geographic and taxonomic distribution of 707 studies that tested the effects of actions to conserve reptiles synthesized in ...

2017年3月—2018年10月,分4个阶段,采取不同丰容方法对上海动物园的1对黑白领狐猴(Varecia variegata)进行丰容试验。在展区内安装摄影机,采用瞬时扫描记录法记录动物行为,扫描取样间隔时间为5 min。结果显示:总体来看,雌雄性的休息行为占比均最大,分别为(5640±714)%和(5431±817)%,雄性的行走、取食行为均多于雌性;雌性的理毛、张望行为略大于雄性。食物丰容和环境丰容都减少了雄性的休息和理毛行为,增加了行走、攀爬、嗅闻和张望行为;但对于雌性来说 ...

Community‐informed and codesigned research to understand the impacts of railways on wildlife
Abstract Trains cause mortalities of several animal species, but the ecological impacts of railways are understudied. Most research on wildlife–train collisions has focused on large mammals, but understanding railway‐specific risks for underrepresented taxa, especially vulnerable species, is important for developing effective mitigation strategies ...

The Intersexual Differences of Sexual Dimorphism,Feeding Habits and Locomotor Performance at Different Temperatures of Southern Grass Lizard(Takydromus sexlineatus) in Zhaoqing,China [PDF]
通过测量头、尾、体和胃检,研究肇庆南草蜥TAkydrOMuS SEXlInEATuS个体发育过程中两性异形和食性差异。南草蜥成体个体两性大小无显著差异,雄性头部显著大于雌性,两性头部大小异形可能是受到性选择压力的结果。雌雄个体食物生态位重叠度较高,两性生态位差异微弱,食性差异与两性头部异形无明显相关性。通过设计13种不同的环境温度,研究体温变化对南草蜥两性个体运动能力表现的影响。结果显示环境温度通过影响体温而影响南草蜥的运动表现,两性个体疾跑速均具有在低体温范围内随体温升高而加快 ...

Our study identifies southern China, including mountainous regions and islands, as key areas rich in phylogenetic diversity, and phylogenetic endemism of lizards that are currently under‐protected. Current protected areas however do not adequately cover regions that are critical for preserving the evolutionary history of lizards.

The Current Situation and Protection Measures of Amphibians and Reptiles Diversity of Huaihe River basin in Anhui [PDF]
经过调查统计,发现淮河流域(安徽段)现有两栖动物11种,其中古北界2种,东洋界5种,广布种4种;爬行动物23种,属于古北界4种,东洋界13种,广布种6种。区系特点明显,属于古北界向东洋界的过渡区,东洋界和广布种种类分布相对丰富。相似系数分析表明沱湖和女山湖相似系数最高,说明其生境和其他两个保护区相比更为优越。此研究有助于了解该地区两栖爬行动物的多样性现状,为进一步加强资源的保护和可持续利用提供参考。The amphibians and reptiles diversity of Huaihe River
