Wherein the pond frog genus Phrynoderma is known for its genetic representation from peninsular India and Bangladesh, with four described species. Although Phrynoderma is a historically available name, its recognition as a genus is very recent, compared to the sister genus Euphlyctis (skittering frogs), members of pond frogs prefer freshwater bodies of low elevation coastal plains with a few exceptions. Herein, we describe a fifth species of pond frog, Phrynoderma konkani sp. nov. from the Sindhudurg district, Maharashtra, western India, wherein the western coastal plains represent the highest species diversity in the entire range of distribution of the genus. The new species is distinct from its congeners by a set of morphological characteristics, including body size, head width, dermal projections on ventral side, and dorsum patterns. Genetic studies based on the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene and nuclear Tyrosinase gene suggest the novelty from the congeneric species. As the divergence of small sized Phrynoderma is recent (3.8 to 2.1 mya), the discovery of new species highlights the need of assigning the recent diverging lineages to the species status from a conservation perspective in the backdrop of rapid urbanization and climate change scenarios, wherein distribution ranges for most of the amphibians are shrinking.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":37957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity","volume":"17 4","pages":"Pages 601-610"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142704331","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}

(Apiaceae) is broadly distributed in the Old World, and 11 taxa, including five endemic species, have been reported in Korea. In this study, we used scanning electron microscopy to describe petal epidermal cell patterns and evaluated their systematic implications for all Korean Peucedanum species except for one. This included two recently reported endemic species, P. miroense and P. tongkangense, which are closely associated with Heracleum moellendorffii. The epidermal characteristics of the petals, including cell type (papillose conical, papillose knobby rugose, tabular conical, or tabular rugose), anticlinal wall shape (straight, sinuous, or curved), cuticle sculpture (striate or wrinkled), and stomata (presence or absence) were observed. The petal epidermis could be categorized into three types and two subtypes. We concluded that petal epidermal characteristics provide evidence supporting the recent robust phylogeny that suggests the non-monophyly of the genus Peucedanum. In particular, P. japonicum and P. praeruptorum, which are positioned in different clades to the other species in the recent phylogeny, had different types of petal epidermis among the studied species. These petal epidermal micro-characteristics were evaluated as possible consistent parameters for the taxonomic delimitation of species of the genus Peucedanum.</div>","PeriodicalId":37957,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity","volume":"17 3","pages":"Pages 532-540"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2287884X24000608/pdfft?md5=bad0bf273b51280c3b47048aa4d06305&pid=1-s2.0-S2287884X24000608-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141414994","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}

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":"17 3","pages":"Pages 513-524"},"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}
