摘要

照片识别是一种非侵入性的标记捕获方法。在这里，我们测试了APHIS的有效性，这是一种半自动照片识别软件，用于区分巴哈马群岛伊柳塞拉岛上的巴哈马Racers (Cubophis vudii vudii)个体。在10个月的时间里，我们拍摄了50名巴哈马赛车手。我们首先通过人工比较毛和唇区域的颜色和鳞片模式来识别个体。接下来，我们使用APHIS在手动识别毛和唇区鳞片交叉点的位置后识别重新捕获的个体。此外，我们评估了用手持相机或智能手机拍摄的图像是否会影响APHIS的准确性。所有重新捕获的蛇都通过APHIS从相机或手机图像中正确识别，并通过我们手动导出的结果进行验证。我们认为APHIS是一种有效的蛇类照片识别工具。

Semi-automated photo-identification of Bahamian Racers (Cubophis vudii vudii)

Photo-identification is a non-invasive option for mark-recapture. Here, we tested the effectiveness of APHIS, a semi-automated photo-identification software, to distinguish between individual Bahamian Racers (Cubophis vudii vudii) on the island of Eleuthera, The Bahamas. Over 10 months, we photographed 50 Bahamian Racers. We first identified individuals by manually comparing colouration and scale patterns in the pileus and labial regions. Next, we used APHIS to identify recaptured individuals after manually identifying the locations of intersections of the scales in the pileus and labial regions. In addition, we assessed whether images taken with a hand-held camera or by a smart phone affected the accuracy of APHIS. All recaptured snakes were correctly identified using APHIS from both camera or phone images as validated by our manually derived results. We conclude that APHIS is an effective tool for photo-identification in snakes.

期刊介绍： Acta Herpetologica, a journal open to academics all over the world, offers itself as a new site for the presentation and discussion of the most recent results in the field of research on Amphibians and Reptiles, both living and extinct. The official journal of the Societas Herpetologica Italica (S.H.I.), Acta Herpetologica publishes original works – extended articles, short notes and book reviews – mostly in English, dealing with the biology and diversity of Amphibians and Reptiles.
