Abstract Global biodiversity is under accelerating threats, and species are succumbing to extinction before being described. Madagascar’s biota represents an extreme example of this scenario, with the added complication that much its endemic cryptic. Here we illustrate best practices for clarifying cryptic diversification processes by presenting integrative framework leverages multiple lines evidence taxon-informed cut-offs delimitation, while placing special emphasis on identifying patterns...
Very little information is known of the recently described M icrocebus tavaratra and L epilemur milanoii in D araina region, a restricted area far northern adagascar. Since their forest habitat highly fragmented expected to undergo significant changes future, rapid surveys are essential determine conservation priorities. Using both distance sampling capture–recapture methods, we estimated population densities two fragments. Our results first density size estimates for nocturnal species. In...
Abstract Tropical forests harbor extremely high levels of biological diversity and are quickly disappearing. Despite the increasingly recognized rate habitat loss, it is expected that new species will be discovered as more effort put to document tropical biodiversity. Exploring under‐studied regions particularly urgent if we consider rapid changes in due anthropogenic activities. Madagascar known for its extraordinary endemicity. It also threatened by loss fragmentation. holds than 100...
Abstract Livingstone's fruit bat ( Pteropus livingstonii ) is among the most threatened bats worldwide. As species an important pollinator and seed disperser of Comoros plants with a crucial role in forest regeneration, it critical to understand how human‐induced habitat disturbance impacts genetic structure at fine spatial scales order define conservation strategies. In this study, we assessed level between eight colonies found that was strong structures roosts can be explained by isolation...
Abstract Establishing effective wildlife conservation measures requires accurate demographic information such as population size and survival probability: parameters that can be extremely difficult to obtain. This is especially the case for threatened species, which are often rare sometimes occupy inaccessible areas. While noninvasive genetic sampling (NIGS) techniques promising tools providing data, these methods may unreliable in certain situations. For instance, fecal samples of...
The Comoros archipelago is a biodiversity hotspot by virtue of its high level endemism. However, it suffers one the highest rates forest loss worldwide, mainly due to strong anthropogenic pressures. As Comorian populations depend on resources for subsistence, establishing relevant conservation strategies their sustainable management requires consideration multiple stakeholders’ perspectives toward and habitat conservation. To better understand relationships between humans nature; how...

ABSTRACT Noninvasive genetic sampling techniques are useful tools for providing data that crucially needed determining suitable conservation actions. Yet these methods may be highly unreliable in certain situations instance, when working with faecal samples of frugivorous species tropical areas. In this study, we tested the applicability noninvasive on two Comoro Islands flying fox species: Pteropus livingstonii and P.seychellensis comorensis order to optimize laboratory process. Both...
