Although several studies have looked at the welfare implications of the country's “owl cafés,” the scale and scope of the Japanese owl trade, and its potential consequences for conservation, remain largely unexplored. Here we present an overview of the volumes and species of owl found in a selection of Japanese pet stores and cafés, based on two physical surveys, an online survey, and an analysis of CITES import data. We found a high number of owls (n = 1914) from a large variety of species (n = 49) across a total of 92 establishments. CITES import records show that species variety has highly increased over time. Although the majority of owls in Japanese pet stores and cafés are likely to be of captive-bred origin, trade histories are often difficult to trace, and the legality of parent stock is impossible to determine. Further complicating monitoring efforts are gaps in international trade data, the mislabeling of species, selective breeding, and the use of outdated taxonomy. Considering the large scale of the Japanese market, efforts to facilitate the improved monitoring of the owl trade are highly warranted to ensure its legality and sustainability.</div>","PeriodicalId":37957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2287884X24000566/pdfft?md5=324d37030b61d1ca8cd916609bfb3296&pid=1-s2.0-S2287884X24000566-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141143896","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we sequenced and analyzed plastid genomes (plastomes) to clarify the phylogenetic standing of I. koreana. We produced next-generation sequencing data for I. koreana and its close relative, Indigofera kirilowii. The plastomes of both species were successfully assembled, measuring 159,517 bp for I. kirilowii and 159,459 bp for I. koreana. Both species shared the same number of 128 intact genes and had identical 35.7% guanine–cytosine content. Phylogenetic analyses utilizing complete plastome and coding sequence–only data, along with 20 other Indigofera plastomes, were conducted to elucidate their evolutionary relationships. Our findings indicate that I. koreana forms a monophyletic group with Indigofera decora, Indigofera carlesii, and I. kirilowii, supported by maximum bootstrap values. Specifically, the phylogenetic tree derived from complete plastome data strongly suggests that I. koreana is most closely related to I. kirilowii.

Results reveal T. clavata exhibits a preference for climatic niches between subtropical and temperate latitudes, with high suitability primarily forecasted in montane forests and coastal regions spanning latitudes of 30–50 degrees. Geographic projections indicate high risk of expansion beyond the current invasive range. Areas with over 50% suitability are predicted as far north as 45–50° N, reaching into southern Canada, while the southern extent approaches the Gulf Coast. Response curves show peak suitability occurs at below-freezing temperatures for the minimum temperature of the coldest month. Similar drivers of distribution between native and invasive models, and an invasive niche occurring within the native range, each suggest niche conservatism for invasive populations. Overall, the vast regions of climatically suitable habitat predicted in North America indicates a highly permissive climate, highlighting the need for further research on biotic factors and management strategies to mitigate spread and impacts.</div>","PeriodicalId":37957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-04-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2287884X24000396/pdfft?md5=b40f83a9e26e9a8ce5b5a9d5376c8c6d&pid=1-s2.0-S2287884X24000396-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142039819","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
