Abstract Environmental parameters along elevational gradients affect the number of butterflies and variety species. However, which variables play significant roles how they operate can be difficult to untangle. Here, we examine relationships between observed butterfly richness (overall subgroups) at different elevation remotely sensed environmental (vegetation productivity, surface temperature, landscape heterogeneity, moisture stress) using generalized linear models. We surveyed with a fixed‐point count method in 19 bands within 1600–5200 m above sea level Manang district, trans‐Himalayan region, north‐central Nepal. The each band was studied estimated, then interpolated across lowest highest estimate species richness. Then, selection models performed on elevations test best model support based value Akaike information criterion multimodel averaging for other variables. Altogether, 94 species, representing 20 subfamilies six families, were recorded throughout study periods. obtained cubic overall richness, Papilionidae, Hesperiidae, quadratic Nymphalidae Pieridae, Lycaenidae. In our study, vegetation productivity found have positive impact communities. Our further suggests Papilionidae Hesperiidae has strong correlation temperature heterogeneity negative associations stress but subgroups communities including showed insignificant these This provides related responses montane from Himalayas detailed studies functional behaviors potentially offer more insights into their distribution patterns ecological relationship environment.

Spatial patterns of human–long-tailed macaque (Macaca fascicularis) conflicts in Java Island: A comparison of two secondary data sources

Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 17(4), P. 653 - 662

Published: July 5, 2024

Human–macaque conflicts present a significant obstacle to conservation and management efforts in Indonesia. Long-tailed macaques, species increasingly conflict with humans, are often regarded as pests due behaviors such occasional raiding on agricultural land. This study aims offer comprehensive insights into these by comparing data from two different sources analyzing their spatial patterns identify regions occurrences. Official records show larger quantity of data, while online news supplements this. However, official quality varies, diverse formats collection methods, whereas consistently provide accessible information over longer period. Both exhibit similar global statistical patterns, indicating clustering. Local autocorrelation analysis identifies hotspot areas primarily at the borders Yogyakarta, Central Java, East Java. Discrepancies between evident High-Low class lack clustering western part Java Island records. Despite do not fully reflect actual human–macaque conflict. Standardized methods interview surveys crucial for accurately assessing this Citizen science offers potential long-term wildlife monitoring, requiring systematic collaboration among stakeholders mobilize experienced volunteers.
