ABSTRACT Despite being crucial to forest ecosystems and biodiversity, primates globally face severe threats from trafficking, driven by demands for pets, traditional medicine, biomedical research. Primate trafficking is a little-known issue in Bangladesh has not been well-documented. This study investigates the recent trends patterns of primate January 2021 June 2024, utilizing secondary data online news portals. We documented 19 incidents involving 32 across ten districts. Five species were...

Abstract Bengal slow loris ( Nycticebus bengalensis ) is the only nocturnal primate of Bangladesh, classed as Endangered both regionally and globally. One barriers to conserving this species that its wild behaviour little known, alongside local people being less aware it due habits. As part our long-term ecological studies species, from June 2020 November 2022, we arranged three awareness programs in forest patches northeast one southeast Bangladesh overcome these issues. We visited students...

We collected primate mortality data 2015 2017 at Lawachara National Park Satchari northeastern Bangladesh. recorded 27 fatalities five species primates caused by (n = 15) 12). Most records were for Trachypithecus phayrei (Blyth, 1847) 8) while lowest was Macaca mulatta (Zimmermann, 1780) 3)....

As road infrastructure networks rapidly expand globally, especially in the tropics, previously continuous habitats are being fragmented, resulting more frequent wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVC). Primates widespread throughout many sub-/tropical countries, and as their they increasingly at risk of WVC. We created Global Primate Roadkill Database (GPRD), largest available standardized database primate roadkill incidents. obtained data from published papers, un-published citizen science...

Raorchestes is a speciose genus of bush frogs with high diversity occurring in the Western Ghats India. Relatively fewer species have been recorded across India, through Bangladesh, southern China, into Vietnam and Peninsular Malaysia. Many are morphologically cryptic therefore remain undescribed. Here, new species, rezakhanisp. nov., described from northeastern Bangladesh based on morphological characters, genetics, bioacoustics. The 16S rRNA gene distinguished this 48 known genus. Bayesian...

Agricultural expansion has had a detrimental effect on tropical forests and the animal communities that depend them. Agroforestry systems, however, with their more complex tree plant communities, have been shown to be important habitats for range of globally threatened species, including nocturnal animals. Here, we present novel data encounter rates seven species mammals in relation agroforestry systems within four national parks associated plantations Bangladesh examine if were influenced...

Fluorescence is a poorly documented phenomenon in vertebrates and has been suggested to play several biological roles. With increased study, the number of species which biofluorescence identified increasing steadily. We conducted UV light survey for herpetofauna Lawachara National Park, Bangladesh found one amphibian ( Microhyla berdmorei ) three reptile Boiga cyanea , Cyrtodactylus tripuraensis Hemidactylus platyurus ).

Abstract The term mixed-species association has a broad range of definitions, from temporary foraging to permanent group living. A mostly involves species closely related taxa and is found in birds, mammals fish. It ranges passive with little interaction coordinated behavioural interactions between the members group. Mixed-species can result production hybrid offspring wild. In this study, we present, best our knowledge, first observational evidence two threatened primate Phayre’s langur (...

Cyrtodactylus tripuraensis (Agarwal, Mahony, Giri, Chaitanya & Bauer, 2018) was recently described from Tripura state of northeast India. In June 2018, we found a subadult and an adult male individual in Lawachara National Park, ‎Maulvibazar District, Sylhet Division, Bangladesh. We identify the individuals as C. based on morphological study. Though new locality is approximately only 40 km away nearest state, India, this first record species
