During October 2004, large herbivores were surveyed from the air in Gorongosa National Park (NP), central Mozambique. This multispecies census was commissioned by the Gregory C. Carr Foundation. A fixed-wing aircraft was used to conduct a sample survey. The methods are both repeatable and technically robust, and are similar to those used during the 1994 survey of wildlife in Gorongosa NP. These same methods are now regularly used to census wildlife elsewhere in Mozambique.

Trophic Scaling and Occupancy Analysis Reveals a Lion Population Limited by Top-Down Anthropogenic Pressure in the Limpopo National Park, MozambiqueEveratt, 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.

Este artigo avalia o estado de degradação ou conservação da terra na Ilha da Inhaca, a partir de uma proposta teórica de degradação da terra e com apoio em geotecnologias. A degradação da terra é concebida como processo de mudanças ordenadas na estrutura e funções da paisagem. Uma parcela de terra é então susceptível à desertificação quando aspectos do suporte geoambiental, particularmente as condições hidrogeológicas são afetadas por fenômenos de degradação (como por exemplo, a diminuição do nível dos lençóis freáticos, seja por conta de variação climática, seja por exploração excessiva dos recursos hídricos subterrâneos).

These notes were made during a brief visit to the Chimanimani Mountains with Mr J. R. Shaw from 3 to 9 June, 1974, when we hiked the inner circuit from the Hut to Two Tarns via St George’s Cave and back via Camp Portage and the Valley of the Apostles. They are supplementary to my earlier general papers on the Chimanimani fauna (Jackson, 1973a; b) and should be read in conjunction with them.

The Chimanimani Mountains lie along the central part of the frontier between Mozambique and Rhodesia. The montane fauna of these mountains has been studied by expeditions from the University of Cape Town (see Masterson & Child, 1959; also Mitchell et al., 1958) and the Prince Edward School, Salisbury, Rhodesia (see Siemers, 1967). Hodgson (1971) has collated the avifaunal data and Jackson (1973) has provided some additional records of the birds and mammals in the central area. Nevertheless, much remains to be learned of the Chimanimani fauna, especially on the Mozambique side of the mountains and particularly in relation to seasonal altitudinal movement.

Preliminary data on human – carnivore conflict in Niassa National Reserve, Mozambique, particularly fatalities due to lion, spotted hyaena and crocodileBegg, C.; Begg, K. & Muemedi, O.2007






SGDRN


Niassa






Wildlife can cause significant loss of human lives and livelihoods and if not responded to human-wildlife conflict can lead to a critical erosion of support for conservation initiatives. Niassa National Reserve, in northern Mozambique supports viable populations of lion, leopard, spotted hyaena and crocodile as well as approximately 25 000 people. The objectives of this report are to provide a preliminary assessment of the scale and distribution of large carnivore attacks on Niassa residents, with particular emphasis on lions and crocodiles and to provide a baseline against which the level of future conflict can be compared.

This report reviews all the bird species that have been recorded in the middle Save River valley (between Massangena in the west and Covane in the east) in Mo9 ambique, including the results of a recent survey made in November 1998. A total o f 268 bird species has been recorded from the region, including 11 new species found in November 1998. Twenty five species were recorded from the area by early expeditions (mainly in 1950, 1963 and 1965) that have not been found in recent times. Thirteen o f these are waterbirds, suggesting that these early surveys were made during wetter periods than the subsequent efforts and/or that upstream water extraction has resulted in a reduction in waterbird diversity in recent times.

THE following paper deals with a collection of Upper Albian Ammonoidea belonging to the Transvaal Museum and kindly sent to the writer, for description, by the Director, through Dr S.H. Haughton, Hon. Curator. There are 102 specimens, including 33 ammonites and 69 heteromorphs, all from Catuane, Portuguese East Africa. These were collected by Dr E. C. N. van Hoepen, and Dr Haughton informs me that presumably they are all from one horizon. Judging by the English type-succession of the Upper Gault, the beds from which came the South African specimens here described would correspond approximately to the varicosum-t:equatoriale zones.

We report on the small faunal assemblage from the Iron Age coastal trading station of Chibuene, situated on the coastal littoral of central Mozambique. The faunal assemblage was excavated in 1995 and contains bones from a variety of animals, including livestock, chickens, wild game animals, as well as aquatic species such as turtles and fish. Fish, turtle and shark remains dominate the assemblage. The fauna from the first and second millennium AD occupations share similarities with other contemporaneous sites to the north on the East African coast, rather than with sites located in South Africa.

There are concerns over the increasing encroachment of humans, domestic livestock, and farming onto Maputo Special Reserve because of the potential for habitat modification. Therefore, differences between an undisturbed area of the reserve and a neighbouring farming area are assessed using dung beetle as indicators. In each of the two areas, pig-dung-baited pitfall traps were used to sample dung beetle assemblages in two contrasting habitats, grassland and forest.

The montane forests of northern Mozambique’s isolated massifs are inhabited by numerous range-restricted and threatened bird species, but until recently were extremely little-known. We report on a first avifaunal survey of the isolated montane habitats of Mt Mecula (1 442 m), Niassa National Reserve, notable as the only currently protected montane area in northern Mozambique. Mount Mecula’s moist forest is small (approximately 136 ha in total) and patchy, and although known botanically to have some montane affinities, was found to support an avifauna more typical of riparian forests of medium to low altitude. The only montane forest species recorded was Lemon Dove Aplopelia larvata.

During a field trip in the area of Nhica do Rovuma, northern Mozambique (10°45.36’S, 40°13.06’E) on 30 November 2009 (Ineich, 2011), I observed a female Agama mossambica Peters, 1854 laying her eggs at 10:45 am. Herein I describe the nest and indicate egg size and number. The nest was dug by the female in loose and sandy soil at about 5 cm deep only (Figure 1). Rain had just begun very slowly one day before our observation, made nearly at the end of the dry season. Even though it was not heavy rain, the soil was relatively humid that day and the rainy season was about to start soon after.

Momordica mossambica, a new species of the Cucurbitaceae from miombo woodland in northern Mozambique is described. In spite of being known only from the type collected in 1964, a morphological and molecular survey of all known species of Momordica indicates that M. mossambica is a distinct species. The closest relatives are M. calantha and M. cabrae from Tanzania and central Africa, respectively, from which it is distinguished easily by its 7-lobed, maple-like leaves.

The herpetofauna of Mozambique remains poorly documented despite several recent surveys. This paper presents additional distribution records for a number of species from Mozambique, based on recent field excursions and older material at the Ditsong National Museum of Natural History. The new records suggest that a number of taxa are more widely distributed in southern Mozambique than is currently known while the additional material suggests that the taxonomy of some species requires further research.

The new records from Mount Namuli in Zambezia Province extend the known distribution of F. modesta 160 km east and that of F. cyathistipula 550 km southeast. Fig species richness for Mozambique is elevated to 35 species, which thus compares favourably with neighbouring countries. A revised checklist is provided for Mozambique and fig species richness of central and southern African countries is compared.

cropping less feasible. Legume intercrops are an alternative and feasible soil surface cover strategy that smallholder farmers can readily utilize. Legume intercrops are important in farming systems because they can ensure food security, increase income, reduce soil erosion, suppress weeds and fix N resulting in increased efficiency of land use through more complete utilization of solar radiation, water and nutrients. This paper seeks to evaluate the productivity of maize-grain legume intercropping as an alternative to sole cropping especially in mixed crop-livestock systems where harvest/cereal crop residues are fed to livestock and thus are not available for mulch.

A new species of forest viper (Atheris Serpentes: Viperidae) is described from Mount Mabu and Mount Namuli, northern Mozambique. This is the most southerly record of the genus, and the first record from Mozambique. Features of scalation, colour, body form and behaviour distinguish the new species from all other African Atheris, particularly its small size (maximum total length 384mm), retention of juvenile colouration in adults, and relatively low ventral, subcaudal and labial scale counts. It appears to be a dwarf, possibly paedomorphic, species that feeds among leaf litter on small frogs and geckos.

Cabo Delgado






China’s demand for timber has increased dramatically over the past 20 years, so that today, more than 80% of Mozambican timber exports are destined for China. Demand for forest products presents both opportunities and challenges for Mozambique. As the country’s sixth‑largest export, timber represents one of the most important industries and sources of income. However, the intense search for resources puts pressure on the sustainable management of the forests.

Carbon Cycling, Fire and Phenology in a Tropical Savanna Woodland in Nhambita, MozambiqueRyan, C.2009






University of Edinburgh


Sofala






In the savanna woodlands of Southern Africa, locally know as miombo, carbon cycling is poorly quantified and many of the key processes remain obscure. For example, seasonal constraints on productivity and leaf display are not well understood. Also, fire is known to be a key process, with around 50% of the annual global area burned occurring in Africa, but detailed understanding of its ecological effects is lacking. Land use change and woodland degradation are changing the structure and functioning of these tropical woodlands, which cover 2.7 million km2 of Southern Africa and provide ecosystem services which support the livelihoods of over 100 million people.

The study was undertaken in Chicale Regulado2, located in the buffer zone of the Gorongosa National Park (GNP) in the Sofala Province, Mozambique (Fig. 1). The choice of this area was guided by several factors including CIFOR’s past research and continued research interests in the region, and an ongoing community level agro-forestry based carbon project that provides incentives3 to smallholders to conserve miombo woodlands.

Gorongosa National Park, like all formally protected conservation areas in Mozambique, was strongly compromised during the independence war and the subsequent period of civil war. The Carr Foundation is assisting the Mozambique Department of National Parks (DNFFB) in restoring the Park, so that it again becomes an important tourist attraction and vital conservation area.

Effects of habitat fragmentation on bird communities of sand forests in southern MozambiqueWilson, J.; van Aarde, R. & van Rensburg, B.2009

We investigated the influence of forest fragment size and isolation on the bird assemblages in the species- and endemic-rich sand forests of the Maputaland Centre of Endemism, southern Mozambique. Point-centre surveys were conducted across 12 sand forest patches that varied in size and isolation. Patch size and isolation had little influence on bird species richness, but the number of individuals decreased significantly with increasing isolation. Furthermore, bird abundances were correlated to a combination of the size and isolation of patches. Many forest specialists, in particular large-bodied frugivores, were highly sensitive to reduced patch size and increased distances between patches.
