Preliminary Checklist of Reef-associated Fishes of Mozambique
Pereira, M.
2000

Todas as Províncias
This report lists 794 species, in 93 families, but should not be considered a complete listing of all species of reef-associated fishes that live in Mozambique waters. Because there are many undescribed species, especially of the smaller-sized families such as Gobiidae and Blenniidae and many species currently known only from nearby states and countries (e.g. Madagascar, Seycheles, Reunion, Kenya) that could also occur in Mozambique waters, this list is likely to grow as more research is conducted.

The affects of artificial water availability on large herbivore ranging patterns in savanna habitats: a new approach based on modelling elephant path distributions
Shannon, G. Et al.
2009
N/A
Artificial water points are often used in protected savanna ecosystems to maintain populations of large herbivores. However, these interventions lead to increased ranging and foraging pressure and can negatively impact important habitats and species. This study investigated the influence of artificial water provision on the foraging and movement paths of an African elephant population and modelled the impact of changing water availability on sensitive habitat types.

Gaza
Effective wildlife management needs historical data on herbivore abundance and its interactions with vegetation, climate and disturbance over longer time periods that is available through observational and archive data. Spores specific to herbivore dung provide a potential source of information on past herbivore abundances. This paper sets out to evaluate the potential of fungal spores as environmental indicators and in particular the use of coprophilous fungi in understanding past herbivore densities and their impact on the savanna landscape of Kruger and Limpopo National Parks (South Africa and Mozambique). Spore assemblages from six sedimentary cores are analysed and compared with the pollen data.

N/A
Taxonomy of thicket rats (Grammomys) is highly provisional and the genus is in a critical need of a thorough revision. We compared G. cometes from Eastern Cape Province (n ¼ 150) with G. ibeanus, G. macmillani, and the southern African G. dolichurus, applying analyses of a partial cytochrome-b (Cytb) sequence (375 base pairs), karyotypes, and cranial morphology. Genetically, G. cometes appeared to be very close to G. dolichurus (mean sequence divergence of 3.4% 6 0.8% SE), whereas G. ibeanus and G. macmillani were separated by a mean sequence divergence of 5.4% 6 1.2%.

Todas as Províncias
Country-wide surveys of lepidopteran stem borers in wild host plants were undertaken between 2006 and 2009 in South Africa and 2005 and 2010 in Mozambique. A total of 4438 larvae were collected from 65 wild host plants in South Africa and 1920 larvae from 30 wild host plants in Mozambique. In South Africa and Mozambique, 50 and 39 stem borer species were recovered, respectively, with four new species and two new genera among noctuids. Less than 5% of the total number of species collected are considered to be economically important in Africa. These species were Busseola fusca (Fuller) (Noctuidae), Chilo partellus (Swinhoe) (Crambidae) and Sesamia calamistis Hampson (Noctuidae).

Possible relationships between the South African captive-bred lion hunting industry and the hunting and conservation of lions elsewhere in Africa
Lindsey, P. Et al.
2012
South African Journal of Wildlife Research
N/A
The trophy hunting of lions is contentious due to increasing evidence of impacts on wild populations, and ethical concerns surrounding the hunting of captive-bred lions in South Africa. The captive-bred lion hunting industry in South Africa has grown rapidly while the number of wild lions hunted in other African countries has declined. In 2009 and 2010, 833 and 682 lion trophies were exported from South Africa, respectively, more than double the combined export (2009, 471; 2010, 318) from other African countries. There has been an associated increase in the prevalence of the export of lion bones from South Africa: at least 645 bones/sets of bones were exported in 2010, 75.0% of which went to Asia.

The Southern African Miombo-Mopane woodlands are globally considered as ecosystems with irreplaceable species endemism, being the most important type of vegetation in the region. Among the approximately 8500 plant species, legume trees play a crucial role in biodiversity dynamics, being also key socioeconomic and environmental players. From the ecological point of view, they contribute significantly to ecosystem’s stability as well as to water, carbon, and energy balance. Additionally, legume species represent an immensurable source of timber and nontimber products.

Policy Issues in Payment for Environmental Services
Anderson et al.
2010
N/A
Ecosystem services broadly mean the benefits that people derive from ecosystems. The services are categorised as provisioning, supporting, regulating, or cultural. For a long time, these services have been considered as nature’s service and have systematically been undervalued. Because they are not traded in conventional markets, they are not captured by existing price signals that have led to over exploitation of the environmental goods with the negative effects on the supply of environmental services. The papers in this book cut across different aspects of Environmental Services (Watershed management, Carbon sequestration, and biodiversity management), policy and institutional issues related to PES.

Trophy hunting and lion conservation: a question of governance?

N/A
https:/www.cambridge.org/core
Lion Panthera leo populations and distributions in Africa have contracted considerably in the past 30 years. Recent policy debates focus on restricting trophy hunting as a measure to address concerns about excessive offtakes of lions. We review the impact of trophy hunting in relation to lion conservation goals, using comparative case studies from Southern and East Africa, which together contain most of Africa’s remaining lion populations. The comparison demonstrates that the impact of trophy hunting on lion populations is variable and shaped by the way trophy hunting is managed and wildlife is governed in different range states.

Implications of spatial genetic patterns for conserving African leopards
Ropiquet, A. Et al.
2015
Molecular biology and genetics
N/A
The leopard (Panthera pardus) is heavily persecuted in areas where it predates livestock and threatens human well-being. Attempts to resolve human–leopard conflict typically involve translocating problem animals; however, these interventions are rarely informed by genetic studies and can unintentionally compromise the natural spatial genetic structure and diversity, and possibly the long-term persistence, of the species. No significant genetic discontinuities were definable within the southern African leopard population. Analysis of fine-scale genetic data derived from mitochondrial and nuclear DNA revealed that the primary natural process shaping the spatial genetic structure of the species is isolation-by-distance (IBD).

African elephants (Loxodonta africana) are imperiled by poaching and habitat loss. Despite global attention to the plight of elephants, their population sizes and trends are uncertain or unknown over much of Africa. To conserve this iconic species, conservationists need timely, accurate data on elephant populations. Here, we report the results of the Great Elephant Census (GEC), the first continent-wide, standardized survey of African savannah elephants.

The bushmeat trade in African savannas: impacts, drivers, and possible solutions
Lindsey, P. Et al.
S/D
N/A
The bushmeat trade, or the illegal acquisition and exchange of wild meat, has long been recognized as a severe problem in forest biomes, but receives little attention in savannas, perhaps due to a misconception that bushmeat hunting is a low-impact subsistence activity. Though data on impacts are scarce, indications are that bushmeat hunting is a widespread problem in savannas, with severe impacts on wildlife populations and wildlife-based land uses. The impacts of the bushmeat trade in savannas vary from edge-effects around protected areas, to disproportionate declines of some species, to severe wildlife declines in areas with inadequate anti-poaching.

The following is a listing of country‐by‐country findings from the Great Elephant Census (GEC). For each of the 18 countries flown to date there is a listed GEC elephant count – the number of live elephants counted during the Census – and a carcass ratio – the percentage of dead elephants observed during the count. Carcass ratios of more than 8 percent are considered to indicate poaching at a high enough level to cause a declining population. For more on how to interpret carcass ratios, see below.

A continent-wide assessment of the form and intensity of large mammal herbivory in Africa
Hempson, G.; Archibald, S. & Bond, W.
2015
SCIENCE
N/A
Megafaunal extinctions and a lack of suitable remote sensing technology impede our understanding of both the ecological legacy and current impacts of large mammal herbivores in the Earth system. To address this, we reconstructed the form and intensity of herbivory pressure across sub-Saharan Africa ~1000 years ago. Specifically, we modeled and mapped species-level biomass for 92 large mammal herbivores using census data, species distributions, and environmental covariates. Trait-based classifications of these species into herbivore functional types, and analyses of their biomass surfaces, reveal four ecologically distinct continental-scale herbivory regimes, characterized by internally similar forms and intensities of herbivory pressure.

African Rhinoceroses: Challenges continue in the 1990s
Gakahu, C.

Pachyderm
N/A
Despite the concern expressed and the measures taken by conservationists and wildlife authorities, the status of African rhinos has worsened during the last decade. The black rhino, Diceros bicornis, has continued to rapidly decline in number, resulting in further fragmentation and extinction of populations. Today most countries have fewer black rhinos than they had three years ago; the deaths represent a great loss of unique genes and adaptation to local environment. However, Kenya, Namibia, South Africa and Zimbabwe have stable populations and, although on the decline in Botswana and towards extinction in Mozambique, the southern white rhino Ceratotirerium simum simum has continued to show an overall increase.

The mountains of northern Mozambique - scattered granite inselbergs topped with evergreen forests - remain poorly known biologically. Their long geological isolation from the east African rift combined with the conflict-fractured history of Mozambique meant little research effort has been undertaken until recent years. Most recent efforts have focused on the mountains in north-central Mozambique, highlighting their unique biological value, but large highlands in the north-west still remain virtually unexplored. The highlands of Niassa province are one such area and represent a key highland link to the north.

Trophic Scaling and Occupancy Analysis Reveals a Lion Population Limited by Top-Down Anthropogenic Pressure in the Limpopo National Park, Mozambique
Everatt, K.; Andresen, L. & Somers, M.
2014
PLoS ONE
Gaza
The African lion (Panthera Leo) has suffered drastic population and range declines over the last few decades and is listed by the IUCN as vulnerable to extinction. Conservation management requires reliable population estimates, however these data are lacking for many of the continent’s remaining populations. It is possible to estimate lion abundance using a trophic scaling approach. However, such inferences assume that a predator population is subject only to bottom-up regulation, and are thus likely to produce biased estimates in systems experiencing top-down anthropogenic pressures. Here we provide baseline data on the status of lions in a developing National Park in Mozambique that is impacted by humans and livestock.
