The Grenadine islands, located on the Grenada Bank, are known to have seventeen species of amphibians and terrestrial reptiles. Of three species of amphibians, two are recent introductions and the third ( Leptodactylus validus ) may be a native remnant that survived the deforestation that initially transformed these islands in the 18th and 19th centuries. The indigenous reptiles, many of which remain relatively common, may not be able to survive the extensive and unregulated tourism development now taking place on these small islands. Of special interest is the recent discovery of a new species of gecko, Gonatodes daudini , on Union Island.

We documented the harvesting of 558 Ozark hellbenders, Cryptobranchus alleganiensis bishopi, between 1969 and 1989, from the North Fork of the White River (NFWR), Ozark County, Missouri. Scientific studies accounted for 272 individuals. More than 256 Ozark hellbenders were taken for the pet trade for suppliers in Michigan, New Jersey, and Japan by collectors from Nebraska and Alabama. During the first weekend of September 1980, 171 were collected illegally. Estimates indicate that approximately 50% of the females were removed from the most significant hellbender habitat in the NFWR (riffle 2-3) that weekend. Between 1969 and 1980, coordination with the Missouri Department of Conservation helped insure that C. a. bishopi, used for scientific research, were not removed from a 2.67 km (NFWR 1) research section. Population estimates from 1970 and 1978 studies indicate stability in the most densely populated habitat. In the 1970's, larger samples of individuals collected for research were not removed from a single site, but a few individuals were collected from multiple sites within a 10 km reach of the NFWR. During 1982-1984 more than 100 individuals were removed from the same section as in 1980 by commercial collectors. This evidence supports harvesting of C. a. bishopi, especially illegal harvesting, as a contributing factor in the decline of this population and documents that the decline had begun by 1980.

The Lesser Antillean island of St. Vincent harbors 18 species of terrestrial amphibians and reptiles: four frogs (including the endemic Pristimantis shrevei ), one turtle, ten lizards (including endemic Anolis griseus and A. trinitatis ), and three snakes (including endemic Corallus cookii and Chironius vincenti ). In addition, four species of marine turtles are known from the region. Ecological relationships of an introduced frog ( E. johnstonei ) and an introduced lizard ( A. sagrei ) should be monitored in order to evaluate any potentially negative impact on endemic congeners. Two endangered endemic species ( P. shrevei and C. vincenti ) may benefit from sympatry with the endemic parrot, Amazona guildingii , the national bird of St. Vincent, with which they share high-quality upland forest habitat. Like other West Indian herpetofaunas, that on St. Vincent faces threats that include dramatic habitat alterations, introduced predators (mongooses, domestic cats) and competitors (e.g., A. sagrei ), changes in the prey base, and the potential introduction of the chytrid fungus. These threats can best be addressed by development and implementation of effective management programs based on ecological studies by local and foreign biologists.

The export trade of tortoises of the genus Testudo from Turkey between 1976 and 2004 is reviewed using compiled import data from the CITES (the Convention International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) data base. A total of 468,006 live animals was exported from Turkey to nine countries. The source of the exported tortoises was largely unknown (95%). Of those from known sources, most of them (66%) were specimens taken from the wild, 8% were captive bred animals, 22% were unknown and 4% were seized by the importing country. The authors' personal observations during an ongoing project (2002-2005) on Testudo have been included.

Like other Lesser Antillean islands, human-modified habitats are prevalent on much of St. Vincent, especially in coastal regions. Eighteen terrestrial species of reptiles and amphibians are known to occur on the island. Some species demonstrate considerable versatility, and are found in both altered and relatively natural habitats. Others, however, are restricted to one extreme or the other. To better understand the composition of herpetofaunal communities, we surveyed seven sites on the leeward side of the island, chosen to represent different degrees of human alteration. We found the highest diversity index in an urban area, where introduced species prevailed. Endemic species were more abundant in more natural sites. Three species, Eleutherodactylus johnstonei, Anolis griseus, and A. trinitatis, were at all sites.

Reports of global amphibian declines necessitate a focus on measures of population health. Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) is a potential measure of the developmental stress experienced by individuals in different environments, but few studies have linked FA with measures of individual quality in amphibians, which is an important assumption of FA. The spotted salamander, Ambystoma maculatum, has two rows of yellow spots on its dorsal surface which might represent useful characters in FA analyses and population monitoring, provided they truly reflect the quality of individuals. In this paper we compared left-right asymmetry in spot features (spot number, size and shape) and leg lengths of this species with traditional measures of body size and body condition among museum specimens to address this question. Of all three spot symmetry variables, the simplest (the difference in left-right spot numbers) was the most important. Individuals with asymmetrical spot numbers were also more asymmetrical in hind leg length, evidence that spots are supposed to be symmetrical in this species. Moreover, salamanders with symmetrical numbers of left-right dorsal spots had higher body condition scores than those with asymmetrical spot numbers. Combined, our results indicate that spot number symmetry provides a good index of individual quality. Further, as many proximate factors can influence body condition (such as recent foraging history), FA in characters such as spots or limbs may provide a more stable metric for assessing the developmental health or quality of individuals, which would prove valuable in amphibian conservation programs.

To design effective and efficient research and monitoring programs researchers must have a thorough understanding of the capabilities and limitations of their sampling methods. Few direct comparative studies exist for aquatic sampling methods for amphibians. The objective of this study was to simultaneously employ seven aquatic sampling methods in 10 wetlands to compare amphibian species richness and number of individuals detected with each method. Four sampling methods allowed counts of individuals (metal dipnet, D-frame dipnet, box trap, crayfish trap), whereas the other three methods allowed detection of species (visual encounter, aural, and froglogger). Amphibian species richness was greatest with froglogger, box trap, and aural samples. For anuran species, the sampling methods by which each life stage was detected was related to relative length of larval and breeding periods and tadpole size. Detection probability of amphibians varied across sampling methods. Box trap sampling resulted in the most precise amphibian count, but the precision of all four count-based methods was low (coefficient of variation > 145 for all methods). The efficacy of the four count sampling methods at sampling fish and aquatic invertebrates was also analyzed because these predatory taxa are known to be important predictors of amphibian habitat distribution. Species richness and counts were similar for fish with the four methods, whereas invertebrate species richness and counts were greatest in box traps. An effective wetland amphibian monitoring program in the southeastern United States should include multiple sampling methods to obtain the most accurate assessment of species community composition at each site. The combined use of frogloggers, crayfish traps, and dipnets may be the most efficient and effective amphibian monitoring protocol.

The endemic Mona Island Iguana, Cyclura cornuta stejnegeri, is considered endangered, and exhibits relatively low population numbers and reduced recruitment of juveniles to adults. A headstarting program was initiated in 1999 to increase the effective population number. Two groups of headstarted iguanas were released in April and August 2002, after reaching a target size. Most of the released iguanas have since been observed to be active and in good health. Two females bred in 2004, the first certain record of reproduction by headstarted Cyclura iguanas in the wild. Eight radiotracked individuals had large dispersal ranges, with mean Minimum Convex Polygon (MCP) of 10.7 ha (range 2.6-22.2 ha) and mean distances covered of 288 m (range 471-6396 m). We discuss the future development of the headstarting program for Mona Island iguanas.
