Abstract:
Sacred groves in the Western Ghats are culturally preserved patches of forests that are rich in diversity owing to protection by several generations of local people, providing excellent examples of community based conservation. Sacred groves harbour local populations, preserve genetic resources and serve as reference sites and corridors between protected areas. They are considered to be cornerstones of biodiversity conservation, but are insufficient in scale and number to significantly address many aspects of the management of landscapes and biodiversity. We studied 13 sacred groves in Pune Di

Abstract:
Rapid Biodiversity Assessment approaches associated with focusing taxa have overcome many of the problems related to large scale surveys. This study examined the suitability of litter ants as a focusing taxon by checking whether diversity and species assemblages of litter ants reflect the overall picture of arthropod diversity and assemblages in leaf litter in two vegetation types: secondary forest and pine plantation in Upper Hanthana forest reserve, Sri Lanka. In each vegetation type, arthropods were sampled using three sampling methods (Winkler extraction, hand collection, and pitfall traps

Abstract:
Molecular tools have long been recognised as having enormous potential to expand horizons in ecology, but the promise remains substantially unfulfilled. In this thesis, I apply genetic approaches to two ecological problems that have proved difficult to solve using traditional techniques. Chapters 1 and 2 apply molecular tools to a community ecology problem to ask what mechanisms govern the persistence of an ant-plant metacommunity. I first use molecular data to clarify the number of coexisting ant species, and then employ population genetic techniques to investigate dispersal scale and other e

Abstract:
As a strategy to conserve tropical rainforests of the East Usambara block of the Eastern Arc Mountains, Tanzania, I developed a set of models that can identify above-average tree species richness areas within the humid forests. I developed the model based on geo-referenced field data and satellite image-based variables from the Amani Nature Reserve, the largest forest sector in the East Usambara. I then verified the model by applying it to the Nilo Forest Reserve. The field data, part of the Tanzanian National Biodiversity Database, were collected by Frontier-Tanzania between 1999 and 2001,

Abstract:
The biodiversity of Durban (eThekwini municipality) in KwaZulu Natal is primarily threatened by urbanization although other factors such as climate change and the spread of invasive species also pose a significant threat. Knowledge of what species exist within the city is important for biodiversity surveillance, detecting invasive taxa and uncovering cryptic species. Conducting a comprehensive biodiversity inventory is a daunting task, especially for hyperdiverse groups such as terrestrial arthropods, where closely related species can often only be separated by subtle morphological characters.

Rapid biodiversity assessment (RBA) approaches survey multiple species efficiently, supporting conservation planning and aiding in the evaluation of protected areas. Different assessment types include baseline inventory, species-specific, change, indicator, and resource assessments. Indicator selection is pivotal and requires reliability, representability, and replicability. Indicators linked to structural elements can provide comprehensive evaluations of forest b

Abstract A method is described for rapid assessment of biodiversity using a wider variety of taxa than the usual inventories of flowering plants and vertebrates. To explore the value of invertebrates and cryptogamic plants as surrogates of biodiversity, estimates of species richness of spiders, ants, polychaetes, and mosses were undertaken by classifying them as Recognisable Taxonomic Units (RTUs), and comparing them with specialist identifications. RTU estimates turned out to be close to formal taxonomic estimates for the invertebrates but were misleading for mosses. It was concluded that tri

So, we have to find reasons for extinction of flora and fauna. For that, it is necessary to do biological survey/assessment.
