Their morphological identification is still understudied. Zoanthids were seen to increase in the past decade and covered almost entire intertidal zone, however their diversity was unknown and extensive work was then carried out. The coastal area of entire Gujarat state was studied. Rocky intertidal zone was surveyed monthly and Zoanthids were recorded. Morphological diversity was studied for the colour of oral disc and the polyp structure and colony morphology. Colour card technique was utilized for Zoanthids, which proves to be an effective tool for the assessment of zoanthid and their colour morphs. 25 colour morphs of Zoanthus sansibaricus, 5 of Z. aff. sociatus, 5 of Z. vietnamensis, 2 of Z. kuroshio, 4 of Palythoa mutuki, 2 of P. heliodidscus, 3 of P. tuberculosa. Site wise distribution showed that Zoanthids from Marine National Park exhibited more of Fluorescent colour morphs and rest showed more of different colour patterns. Rocky intertidal zone of Sutrapada showed maximum diversity and Okha showed least diversity. Colony patterns taken as attributes for the study of diversity resulted in understanding the utilization of the substratum. Flat and bulbous colonies of Palythoa tuberculosa and stoloniferous colonies of Zoanthus spp. and Palythoa mutuki and P. heliodiscus were recorded. It was concluded that substratum played a major role in understanding the colony pattern and showed that there was species wise change in colony pattern. The paper will describe about the morphology of both the polyp and colony.","PeriodicalId":15637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecosystem & Ecography","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73649860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

No one knows precisely how many species arise on our world. According to specialist the total number of species on earth is in between 10 million to 80 million. We have been capable to procure only 1.4 million species so far. India has a flora of its possess and concerning 15000 species are widespread in this region. However biodiversity loss is continuing as a serious worry in many countries including India. Human population increase, indefensible consumerism, augmenting liberate of waste and pollutants, urbanization, international conflicts and unfairness in giving out of wealth and resources are presently being viewed in totality to ameliorate environmental problems as well as to make sure the potential of life on earth. Biodiversity is an umbrella expression acceptance numbers, assortment and variability of living organisms, the sum total of genetic materials within the organisms and the ecosystems in which they take place. Asia was the most horrible influence in terms of casualties owing to natural disasters - 65% of those killed in 2012 were Asians. Study conducted by specialist that 70% of worldwide genetic diversity of crop plants has already been gone during the last century owing to preface of elevated yielding and hybrid varieties of crops. Pollution has risen in numerous developing countries including India with elevated economic growth, as superiority of environment is ignored in favor of economic achievement. According to Global Ecology and Biogeography that global warming will make quite a lot of species of lizard go away extinct within the next 50 years. In India biodiversity is critical not only because it provides rather a few goods as well as services indispensable for human endurance, other than as well for the reason that it is unswervingly associated by means of as long as livelihoods on the way to along with improving socio-economic conditions of millions of our populace, consequently contributing to sustainable development in adding together to scarcity alleviation.","PeriodicalId":15637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecosystem & Ecography","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84552677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here the Margaritichnus trace fossil sp. is the first record from the western Rajasthan. The present study area is located about 6 km south of Fatehgarh town and 70 kms north of Barmer on Bramer–Jaisalmer road. The Ophiomorpha trace fossils are found in white fine grained calcareous sandstone from lower siliciclastic sequence while Margaritichnus trace fossils occurs in dark brown medium to fine grained ferruginous sandstone of middle phosphorite - siliciclastic sequence of the Fatehgarh Formation of Barmer Basin. The Ophiomorpha trace fossils were considered as crustaceans and shrimps whereas Margaritichnus were mainly produced by worm–like deposits feeders such as sipunculids and priapulids or possibly hydrozoa. The ichnological and sedimentological investigations suggests near - coastal shallow marine depositional environment for the Fatehgarh Formation of the Barmer Basin. It is difficult to attribute a more specific age of Bariyara section of Fatehgarh Formation because of the long stratigraphic range of Margaritichnus (Permian-Cretaceous) and Ophiomorpha (Permian-Recent) as attributed the Fatehgarh Formation to the Cretaceous age on the basis of microvertebrate assemblages recorded from the same Bariyara section.","PeriodicalId":15637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecosystem & Ecography","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85442208","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Park was established to protect and conserve large number of water birds that use Lake Abijata as feeding and Lake Shala as nesting and breeding grounds. Actually, Lake Shala is the continent’s most important breeding colony of great white pelicans. The Park also provides wintering ground and maintenance station for large number of birds including from Southern African, Sub-Saharan and Palaearctic species. Consequently, the Park was submitted to the Ramsar Convention on wetlands as an international important candidate site. However, this natural heritage is currently deteriorating due to human encroachment, grazing by cattle, uncontrolled water abstraction and other anthropogenic activities. Since the 1980s, the water level of Lake Abijata has significantly dropped, fishery has totally collapsed, and birds such as Lesser Flamingo (Phoeniconaias minor Geoffroy) and Great White Pelican (Pelecanus onocrotalus roseus) have been migrating to nearby lakes. Briefly, the lake is shrinking (so far greater than about 100 km2) and facing imminent threat of collapse obliterating the existence of the Park. As a result, the Park is one of IBAs (Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas) in danger sites, which are priority sites for immediate action. To improve this deteriorating condition of the Park, I demonstrate resources use of the Park within the framework of green economy, which protects ecosystem services and utilizes natural resources sustainably. Lastly, a few recommendations for management measures are outlined as mechanisms to protect the ecosystems and the park.","PeriodicalId":15637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ecosystem & Ecography","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91351164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
