Abstract:

Watu Joglo is one of the caves located in the row of the Sewu mountains, Gunung Kidul, Special Regency of Yogyakarta. Watu Joglo has various suitable microhabitats for herpetofauna. So far, the study about herpetofauna’s community structure and distribution has not been carried out in Watu Joglo. This study aimed to study and map the diversity, richness, evenness, and distribution of herpetofauna in Watu Joglo. Herpetofauna’s data sampling was carried out for three days. The study was conducted on 6-8 April 2018. The data of herpetofauna community were analyzed with Shannon-Wiener diversity in

Land use change of rubber plantation into ITERA campus area has led to changes in the ecology of the area. Amphibians and reptiles, referred as Herpetofauna, are categorized as wild animals that are sensitive to environmental changes and are considered as bio-indicators. Wild conservation activities including herpetofauna is an essential part to the forest campus concept in ITERA.

The study used Visual Encountered Survei (VES) combined with patch and time search sampling at diurnal and nocturnal active times. We also compiled the data on herpetofauna species in books, journal publications, database specimens from museums worldwide, and recorded observations of individual species.

This study was conducted to identify the types of herpetofauna diversity in Gunung Permisan. Herpetofauna are including reptile and amphibian classes, that played an important role in maintaining the balance and sustainability of the ecosystem. The research method was using the exploration and Visual Encounter Survey. The type of herpetofauna was identif

Abstract:

Wawekale Rainforest Reserve (WRR) is a primary lowland tropical rainforest area in the Western Province of Sri Lanka, established with diversity, but disturbed by human activities such as rubber cultivation, logging, poaching, chemical release, and the collection of firewood. Visual Encounter Surveys (VES) were conducted for 100 hours in the year 2022, which covered wide habitat distribution. The herpetofaunal diversity was measured in the WRR which can indicate broader ecological shifts, environmental changes, or habitat degradation. Water quality was measured in the WRR area to determine the

Abstract:

Pucung Village is located in Eromoko District, Wonogiri Regency, part of the Gunung Sewu karst area with diverse biodiversity, including herpetofauna (amphibians and reptiles). Limited information on the distribution patterns and abundance of herpetofauna is the focus of this study. This study examined herpetofauna diversity across three habitat types (river, forest, and field). Using Visual Encounter Surveys (VES) and line transects, 455 individuals from 19 species (10 families, 2 orders) were recorded. Forests exhibited the highest species diversity (H’ = 2.152 in Mijil, 1.873 in Dunggudel)

AbstractPopulations of herpetofauna are declining globally primarily due to land-use practices (e.g., silviculture or conversion to agriculture) and declines require monitoring of all herpetofauna communities. Therefore, forest management plans for Bull Neck Swamp, a pocosin wetland in North Carolina, USA, initiated an inventory of the herpetofauna community. Our objectives were to: (1) derive diversity measures for four designated habitat preserves (i.e., Atlantic whitecedar [Chamaecyparis thyoides], Pond pine [Pinus serotina], Non-riverine Swamp, and Shoreline/Islands) and a Forest manageabl
