The taking and submission of samples from forensic cases for laboratory investigation necessitates the adoption of rigorous protocols and high standards of quality control. Reptiles and amphibians provide particular challenges, in part because of their biological features and also because, until recently, there have been few studies in these species on such subjects as determination of time of death. Herpetological medicine and pathology have made tremendous strides in recent years and this has contributed substantially to the establishment of databases and expertise that can be used in the investigation of legal cases.
从法医案件中提取和提交样本供实验室调查,需要采用严格的规程和高标准的质量控制。爬行动物和两栖动物提供了特殊的挑战,部分原因在于它们的生物学特征,也因为直到最近,在确定死亡时间等主题上对这些物种的研究很少。爬虫医学和病理学近年来取得了巨大的进步,这大大有助于建立可用于法律案件调查的数据库和专业知识。

The repellence efficacy of pellets containing naphthalene and sulfur against the Palestine viper Vipera palaestinae (Viperidae) was studied. This species is the only venomous snake in the densely populated central and northern parts of Israel, and bites many humans every year. The experiments were performed in an outdoor earth-floor arena. Two cages, each containing a single rodent (Meriones tristrami, Gerbilidae) as bait, were located at opposite ends of the arena, one of them protected by a pellet strip of naphthalene and sulfur formulation, and the other unprotected. After an acclimatization period naive vipers were introduced into the arena, each one separately. The experiments were conducted in two parts of seven trials, each part on the opposite end of the arena. Five snakes avoided the protected section of the arena, and eight reached the protected cages. The conclusion was that the formulation failed to repel the vipers.
研究了萘硫微丸对巴勒斯坦蝰蛇(Vipera Palestine)的驱避效果。这种蛇是以色列人口密集的中部和北部地区唯一的毒蛇,每年都会咬伤许多人。实验是在室外的地面竞技场进行的。两个笼子,每个笼子里有一只啮齿类动物(Meriones tristrami, Gerbilidae)作为诱饵,位于竞技场的两端,其中一个笼子用萘和硫制剂的颗粒条保护,另一个没有保护。经过一段适应期后,每条幼蛇被分别引入竞技场。实验分两部分进行,每部分在舞台的另一端进行。5条蛇避开了竞技场的保护区域,8条到达了保护笼子。结论是,该配方未能击退毒蛇。

Estimates of abundance of threatened and endangered species are crucial for monitoring population status and recovery progress. For most wildlife species, multiple abundance estimation methods are available and the choice of method should depend on cost and efficacy. We field-tested the cost and efficacy of line transect, total count, sample count, and double observer methods for estimating abundance of gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus) burrows in two habitats that differed in vegetation density (sparse and dense) at the Ordway-Swisher Biological Station in north-central Florida. In the dense vegetation stratum, density of burrows estimated using the line transect method (8.58 ± 0.94 burrows ha−1) was lower than that obtained from the total count method (11.33 burrows ha−1). In the sparse vegetation stratum, estimated burrow density using the line transect method (11.32 ± 1.19 burrows ha−1) was closer to the burrow density obtained from the total count method (13.00 burrows ha−1). Density of burrows estimated using the double observer method was identical to that obtained from the total count method in dense vegetation stratum, but slightly greater than that obtained from the total count method in sparse vegetation stratum. Density of burrows estimated using the sample count method varied widely depending on the proportion of plots sampled. The cost of sampling as well as estimates of burrow density varied with habitat type. The line transect method was the least costly of the methods, and we were able to sample a larger effective area with the same effort. Using burrow cameras and patch occupancy modeling approach, we also estimated the probability of burrow occupancy by gopher tortoises (active: 0.50 ± 0.09; inactive: 0.04 ± 0.04), and used these values to estimate abundance of gopher tortoises. Using estimates of burrow abundance based on the line transect method, density of gopher tortoises was 2.75 ± 0.74 ha−1 in the sparse vegetation stratum. We recommend that gopher tortoise monitoring programs use rigorous methods for estimating burrow abundance (e.g., line transect methods) and the probability of burrow occupancy by gopher tortoises (e.g., patch occupancy modeling approach).
估计受威胁和濒危物种的丰度对于监测种群状况和恢复进展至关重要。对于大多数野生物种,有多种丰度估算方法可供选择,方法的选择应取决于成本和效果。在佛罗里达州中北部的Ordway-Swisher生物站,我们实地测试了样线法、总计数法、样本计数法和双观察者法估算地鼠龟(Gopherus polyphemus)洞穴丰度的成本和有效性,这些方法在植被密度不同(稀疏和密集)的两个栖息地中使用。在茂密植被层,样线法估算的洞穴密度(8.58±0.94个洞穴ha−1)低于总计数法估算的洞穴密度(11.33个洞穴ha−1)。在稀疏植被层中,样线法估算的洞穴密度(11.32±1.19个洞穴ha−1)更接近总计数法估算的洞穴密度(13.00个洞穴ha−1)。双观察者法估算的洞穴密度与稠密植被层总计数法估算的洞穴密度相同,但略大于稀疏植被层总计数法估算的洞穴密度。使用样本计数法估计的洞穴密度根据采样地块的比例变化很大。采样成本和洞穴密度估算值随生境类型的不同而不同。样线法是成本最低的方法,我们能够以同样的努力取样更大的有效区域。利用地穴摄像机和斑块占用建模方法,我们还估算了地鼠占用地穴的概率(活动:0.50±0.09;非活动:0.04±0.04),并利用这些值估计地鼠龟的丰度。利用样线法估算的地穴丰度,在稀疏植被层中地鼠密度为2.75±0.74 ha−1。我们建议地鼠龟监测程序使用严格的方法来估计洞穴丰度(例如,样线法)和地鼠龟占用洞穴的概率(例如,斑块占用建模方法)。

The primary anthropogenic factor causing amphibian declines in Europe is habitat loss and fragmentation. Here we explore the effects of aquatic and landscape habitat variables on the adult counts of the Common Toad (Bufo bufo) in 43 ponds in central Romania surveyed between 2000 and 2005. Principal components analysis (PCA) identified two main factors, with which the adult counts can be related the first related to landscape variables (percentage of forest cover, presence/absence of roads and habitat corridors) and the second, to pond variables, in particular the presence/absence of fish, together accounting for 49% of the total variance. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed differences between ponds where toads were present or absent in factor loadings of both principal components, but only the landscape factor was significantly correlated with toad counts. These results highlight the role of landscape composition and configuration in maintaining toad populations in this area, and suggest a negative effect of landscape fragmentation. To efficiently protect amphibians in Romania, appropriate legislation and a close collaboration between landowners, landscape planners and herpetologists are needed.
导致欧洲两栖动物数量减少的主要人为因素是栖息地的丧失和破碎化。本文研究了2000年至2005年在罗马尼亚中部调查的43个池塘中,水生和景观生境变量对蟾蜍成虫数量的影响。主成分分析(PCA)确定了与成虫数量相关的两个主要因素:第一个因素与景观变量(森林覆盖百分比、道路和栖息地走廊的有无)有关,第二个因素与池塘变量(特别是鱼类的有无)有关,它们共同占总方差的49%。方差分析(ANOVA)显示,在有蟾蜍或没有蟾蜍的池塘中,两个主成分的因子负荷存在差异,但只有景观因子与蟾蜍数量显著相关。这些结果突出了景观组成和配置对维持该地区蟾蜍种群的作用,并表明景观破碎化的负面影响。为了有效地保护罗马尼亚的两栖动物,需要适当的立法和土地所有者、景观规划者和爬虫学家之间的密切合作。

Prescribed fire is a common land management tool used to reduce undesirable shrubs, improve forage quality, and enhance wildlife habitat for game species. However, it also has impacts on nongame species. We examined whether a prescribed fire would affect the abundance of lizards and invertebrates in central Texas. In February 2004, four sites were treated with low-intensity prescribed fires; four adjacent non-burned sites served as controls. Vegetation structure (litter depth, percent canopy cover, visual obstruction) and foliar cover were recorded prior to and seasonally following the burn. Lizards and potential invertebrate prey were collected from all plots between March and August 2004 (152 traps, 5908 trap nights). Lizard numbers were not significantly (P > 0.312) affected by the fire, nor were their potential prey or habitat greatly affected. Burning reduced numbers of Homoptera (P 0.25 for all measures); however, foliar cover of Texas wintergrass was lower in burned plots in March but recovered to non-burned levels by May. Our results suggest that small-scale, low-intensity fires have minimal impact on central Texas lizards, the vegetation structure of their habitat, or the invertebrates of their diet.
规定的火是一种常用的土地管理工具,用于减少不受欢迎的灌木,提高饲料质量,并改善野生动物栖息地的狩猎物种。然而,它也对非游戏物种产生了影响。我们研究了一场规定的大火是否会影响德克萨斯州中部蜥蜴和无脊椎动物的数量。2004年2月,四个地点进行低烈度订明火警处理;四个相邻的未被烧毁的地点作为对照。植被结构(凋落物深度、冠层盖度百分比、视觉障碍)和叶面盖度分别在燃烧前和燃烧后进行记录。2004年3月至8月在所有样地(152个陷阱,5908个陷阱夜)收集了蜥蜴和潜在的无脊椎动物猎物。蜥蜴的数量没有受到火灾的显著影响(P > 0.312),它们的潜在猎物和栖息地也没有受到很大的影响。燃烧减少同翅目昆虫数量(各措施P均为0.25);然而,德州冬草叶盖度在3月烧地较低,但在5月恢复到未烧地水平。我们的研究结果表明,小规模、低强度的火灾对德克萨斯中部蜥蜴、它们栖息地的植被结构或它们的饮食无脊椎动物的影响最小。

Record-keeping is an essential part of any forensic investigation. Cases involving reptiles and amphibians are no exception. All such records are to be considered as evidence and must be fully accountable in a chain of custody. Equally, the documentation of samples is vital, from the earliest point of entry into an investigation. Strict adherence to these basic principles will ensure that the evidence, when presented, will withstand scrutiny of both its integrity and transparency.
记录保存是任何法医调查的重要组成部分。涉及爬行动物和两栖动物的案件也不例外。所有这些记录都将被视为证据,并且必须在监管链中完全负责。同样,从调查的最初开始,样本的文件也是至关重要的。严格遵守这些基本原则将确保提交的证据经得起对其完整性和透明度的审查。

Some knowledge of the relevant law is essential to forensic work involving reptiles and amphibians. The legislation that applies to such animals forms the basis of prosecutions, civil claims and other enquiries that call for herpetological forensic evidence. Other legal requirements set standards for the method and quality of the preparation and presentation of forensic evidence. The law relating to reptiles and amphibians and its impact on forensic work is discussed with reference to general principles that are common to many countries and, by way of example, to more specific information on international, European Union and British law.
对涉及爬行动物和两栖动物的法医工作来说,一些相关法律知识是必不可少的。适用于这类动物的立法构成了起诉、民事索赔和其他需要爬虫学法医证据的调查的基础。其他法律规定为准备和提交法医证据的方法和质量制定了标准。讨论了有关爬行动物和两栖动物的法律及其对法医工作的影响,参考了许多国家共同的一般原则,并举例说明了关于国际法、欧洲联盟法和英国法的更具体的资料。

The law relating to reptiles and amphibians and its impact on forensic work is discussed with reference to general principles that are common to many countries and, by way of example, to more specific information on international, European Union and British law.","PeriodicalId":55499,"journal":{"name":"Applied Herpetology","volume":"19 1","pages":"319-338"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1163/157075408786532093","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64922318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Tadpoles of Physalaemus pustulosus showed a marked crowding effect in cultures without soil substrate. Tadpoles fed ad libitum (high ration level) had slower growth and development at densities of 20 and 50 L −1 compared to 2, 5 and 10 L −1 , but there was little effect on mass at metamorphosis. The effect of extreme crowding (50 L −1 ) on a compound measure of tadpole performance was similar to that of a greatly reduced ration level (high/4), which lowered performance by about half at all rearing densities (2-50 L −1 ). Density and ration level interacted significantly in their effects on tadpole performance. A soil substrate, previously shown to promote growth and development of P. pustulosus tadpoles, largely mitigated the crowding effect, with little effect of density on performance between 2 and 50 L −1 and metamorph mass substantially greater than those reared without soil. Several measures of water quality in cultures were similar to values in field breeding pools of P. pustulosus . The exception was dissolved oxygen which was often lower than in field pools, although cultures with low values (with soil) were those showing greatest rates of growth and development and metamorph size. Factors that could be responsible for the mitigating effect of soil on crowding are discussed. The effect reduces the material and care time cost of rearing P. pustulosus to metamorphosis by 2-3 fold compared to the standard culture at 10 L −1 recommended previously.
在没有土壤基质的培养条件下,脓疱绒螯蟹蝌蚪表现出明显的拥挤效应。自由采食(高日粮水平)的蝌蚪在20和50 L−1的密度下比在2、5和10 L−1的密度下生长发育较慢,但对其变态质量影响不大。极端拥挤(50 L−1)对蝌蚪生产性能的影响与大幅度降低日粮水平(高/4)的影响相似,在所有饲养密度(2-50 L−1)下,都会使生产性能降低约一半。密度和日粮水平对蝌蚪生产性能有显著的交互作用。土壤基质可以促进p.p usullosus蝌蚪的生长和发育,在很大程度上减轻了拥挤效应,在2到50 L−1之间,密度对蝌蚪性能的影响很小,而变质质量明显大于无土壤饲养的蝌蚪。培养池中水质的若干指标与脓疱假单胞虫野外养殖池的水质指标相似。例外的是溶解氧,它通常低于田间池,尽管低值(土壤)的培养物显示出最大的生长发育速度和变质大小。讨论了土壤对拥挤的缓解作用的因素。与之前推荐的10 L−1标准培养相比,该效果可将培养脓疱假单胞菌至变态所需的材料和护理时间减少2-3倍。
