it occurs at mylappara , thanikkudy , mullayar and thekkady in the periyar lake - stream system in kerala , india . the species is found in flowing waters and lay eggs in deep waters . it was once a main diet of the mannan tribe . the name brahmanakendai may be due to a thread , similar to a ‘poonool , ’ in its body . the fish which is already on the red category list of the international union for conservation of nature ( iucn ) could be in more danger as nearly 80 per cent of its total population was endemic to the periyar tiger reserve ( ptr ) where the african catfish proves a threat to its existence , say experts .
there are 44 rivers in kerala . 41 of them flow westward and 3 eastward . all these rivers originate from the sahyadri hills ( western ghats ) . longest river in kerala is periyar , then bharathapuzha and pampa . largest backwater lake in kerala is vembanad lake . these rivers all originate in the western ghats range and flow westward into the kerala backwaters or into the arabian sea . west flowing 41 rivers and its branches 1 . periyar river ( 244 ) edamala , cheruthoni , mullayar , muthirapuzha , perinjankutti river 2 . bharatapuzha river ( 209 ) , thuthapuzha , gayathripuzha , kalpathipuzha , kannadipuzha river 3 . pamba river ( 176 ) , azhuthayar , kakkiyar , kakkattar , kallar , perunthenaruvi , madatharuvi , thanungattilthodu , kozhithodu , varattar , kuttemperoor 4 . chaliyar river ( 169 ) 5 . chalakudy river ( 169 ) , parambikulam river 6 . kadalundy river ( 130 ) 7 . achankoil river ( 128 ) 8 . kallada river ( 121 ) 9 . muvattupuzha river ( 121 ) 10 . valapattanam river ( 110 ) 11 . chandragiri river ( 105 ) 12 . manimala river ( 90 ) 13 . vamanapuram ri…

freshwater fish species of the indian subcontinent . the remarkable discontinuous distribution of ‘sister g
. . . in his review of phylogenetic studies , investigating south asian taxa with disjunct distributions across the indian subcontinent ( western ghats versus indo - burma ) , karanth ( 2003 ) showed the disjunct distributions of most taxa to be erroneous due to a mismatch between the existing classifications and phylogenetic relationships ( i . e . taxon reported to be disjunctly distributed is non - monophyletic ) , as exemplified recently by the fanged frogs ( bossuyt and milinkovitch 2000 ) or the asian hill trouts ( dahanukar et al . 2013 ) . karanth ( 2003 ) identified only a few examples of monophyletic groups containing disjunctly distributed taxa ( his ' true ' disjunct ) across the indian subcontinent ( including macaques and flying lizards of the genus draco ) . . . .

there is confusion as to the author of pyrausta aurea : several internet sites give hampson ( 1913 ) as the author ( originally placed in genus pachyzancla ) , apparently based on specimens from mexico , while 3 or 4 sites give butler ( 1875 ) as the author , apparently based on specimens from africa . gbif lists both authors separately , and gives each name the status of
provisionally accepted name .

anomphalus jaggerius is an extinct species of permian sea snail .

fossils have been found in artinskian era limestone from the bird spring formation in the southern arrow canyon range of the us state of nevada .

the species , which had a shell 6.37 millimetres ( 0.251 in ) wide , was a subtidal epifaunal grazer .

it was named after rolling stones lead singer mick jagger .

anomphalus jaggerius

the snail species anomphalus jaggerius was named after the rolling stone frontman back in 1972 . he has since lent his name to the jaggermeryx naida , an ancient , big - lipped swamp creature which was discovered earlier this year .
jagger is far from the first celebrity to be honoured in this way - fellow musicians mark knopfler , frank zappa , shakira and the sex pistols have all had species named after them . and , in fact , it ' s not even jagger ' s first : aegrotocatellus jaggeri is a trilobite and anomphalus jaggerius is a type of snail .
indeed , this isn’t the first time jagger has had researchers honor him in this way . he’s also the namesake of aegrotocatellus jaggeri , a trilobite , as well as anomphalus jaggerius , a kind of snail . he shares the multiple animal namesake honor with such other luminaries as frank zappa ( snail , spider , bacteria , jellyfish , gerbil ) , barack obama ( spider , reptile , fish , worm , lichen ) , arnold schwarzenegger ( spider , beetle ) , and adolf hitler ( beetle , insect ) , because scientists have the same small reference pool as the rest of us . still , none of those guys have scored anything as big as an extinct hippo - pig , proving once and for all : mick jagger is better than hitler .

scientists have named a newly discovered extinct animal — notable for its prominent , grasping lips — after rolling stones frontman mick jagger . dubbed jaggermeryx naida by duke university researchers , the extinct mammal was apparently a deer - sized mixture of a pig and a hippopotamus , which actually sounds a lot cuter than the real mick jagger . the ancient , leathery - skinned beast has yet to release a comment about scientists naming another animal after him .

he ' s been part of the rolling stones for over 50 years , but now another stone has led to mick jagger lending his name to a new species .
anthropologist and paleontologists from wake forest university discovered some fossils in the egyptian desert belonging to a family of extinct hoofed animals called anthracotheres , but one creature was so distinct that they decided that it was a previously undescribed species .
associate anthropology professor ellen miller said of the animal , described as a cross between a long - legged pig and a slender hippo : “we imagine its lifestyle was like that of a water deer , standing in water and foraging for plants along the river bank . ”
in particular , in had nerves on either side of its jaw , giving it a hypersensitive lower lip and snout . which is where jagger comes in .
after much debate about whether the big - lipped beast should be named after angelina jolie , or mick , they plumped for the latter , giving it the name jaggermeryx naida , or jagger ' s water nymph .


the eastern long-eared bat , ( nyctophilus bifax ) , is a species of vesper bat .

it is found in australia , indonesia , and papua new guinea .

in australia , the range extends into subtropical regions .

this species is insectivorous and roosts in trees .

eastern long - eared bat

the eastern long - eared bat was previously considered to be a subspecies of the greater long - eared bat nyctophilus timoriensis , but has since been described as a separate species ( parnaby 2009 ) .
the eastern long - eared bat is thought to roost solitarily under the loose bark , and in the crevices and hollows of trees .
increase the understanding of critical aspects of the biology and ecology of the eastern long - eared bat that will assist in the long - term management of the species .

the eastern long - eared bat hunts be perching 5 - 10 m above the ground and wait for their prey to come in range . if they don’t catch their food ( usually moths ) within 3 - 5 minutes they will move to another perch in the nearby vicinity .
the eastern long - eared bat hunts for insects in the air , from foliage and the ground . it eats beetles , bugs , moths , grasshoppers and crickets . these bats are thought to play an important role in controlling the abundance of foliage - feeding insects in remnant vegetation and rural areas .

white - nose syndrome : no other threat is as severe and immediate as the disease , white - nose syndrome . if this disease had not emerged , it is unlikely the northern long - eared bat would be experiencing such a dramatic population decline . since symptoms were first observed in new york in 2006 , white - nose syndrome has spread rapidly from the northeast to the midwest and southeast ; an area that includes the core of the northern long - eared bat’s range where it was most common before this disease . numbers of northern long - eared bats ( from hibernacula counts ) have declined by up to 99 percent in the northeast . although there is uncertainty about the rate that white - nose syndrome will spread throughout the species’ range , it is expected to spread throughout the united states in the foreseeable future .
summer habitat : during the summer , northern long - eared bats roost singly or in colonies underneath bark , in cavities or in crevices of both live trees and snags ( dead trees ) . males and non - reproductive females may also roost in cooler places , like caves and mines . northern long - eared bats seem to be flexible in selecting roosts , choosing roost trees based on suitability to retain bark or provide cavities or crevices . this bat has also been found rarely roosting in structures , like barns and sheds .

wind farm operation : wind turbines kill bats , and , depending on the species , in very large numbers . mortality has been documented for northern long - eared bats , although a small number have been found to date . however , there are many wind projects within a large portion of the bat’s range and many more are planned .
install a bat box : dead and dying trees are usually not left standing , so trees suitable for roosting may be in short supply and bat boxes may provide additional roost sites . bat boxes are especially needed from april to august when females look for safe and quiet places to give birth and raise their pups .
range : the northern long - eared bat’s range includes much of the eastern and north central united states , and all canadian provinces from the atlantic ocean west to the southern yukon territory and eastern british columbia . the species’ range includes the following 37 states and the district of columbia : alabama , arkansas , connecticut , delaware , georgia , illinois , indiana , iowa , kansas , kentucky , louisiana , maine , maryland , massachusetts , michigan , minnesota , mississippi , missouri , montana , nebraska , new hampshire , new jersey , new york , north carolina , north dakota , ohio , oklahoma , pennsylvania , rhode island , south carolina , south dakota , tennessee , vermont , virginia , west virginia , wisconsin , and wyoming .
the northern long - eared bat is federally listed as a threatened species under the endangered species act . endangered species are animals and plants that are in danger of becoming extinct . threatened species are animals and plants that are likely to become endangered in the foreseeable future . identifying , protecting , and restoring endangered and threatened species is the primary objective of the u . s . fish and wildlife service’s endangered species program .
[ … ] slate grey to brown fur on the back and ash grey on the belly . this species has longer ears than n . bifax bifax ; they are usually 24 to 30 mm long . this bat is known for its habit of changing roost sites [ … ]
feeding habits : like most bats , northern long - eared bats emerge at dusk to feed . they primarily fly through the understory of forested areas feeding on moths , flies , leafhoppers , caddisflies , and beetles , which they catch while in flight using echolocation or by gleaning motionless insects from vegetation .

loss or degradation of summer habitat : loss or degradation of summer habitat : highway construction , commercial development , surface mining , and wind facility construction permanently remove habitat and are activities prevalent in many areas of this bat’s range . forest management benefits northern long - eared bats by keeping areas forested rather than converted to other uses . but , depending on type and timing , forest management activities can cause mortality and temporarily remove or degrade roosting and foraging habitat .

winter habitat : northern long - eared bats spend winter hibernating in caves and mines , called hibernacula . they use areas in various sized caves or mines with constant temperatures , high humidity , and no air currents . within hibernacula , surveyors find them hibernating most often in small crevices or cracks , often with only the nose and ears visible .
addressing wind turbine mortality : the service and others are working to minimize bat mortality from wind turbines on several fronts . we fund and conduct research to determine why bats are susceptible to turbines , how to operate turbines to minimize mortality and where important bird and bat migration routes are located . the service , state natural resource agencies , and wind energy industry are developing a midwest wind energy habitat conservation plan that will provide wind farms a mechanism to continue operating legally while minimizing and mitigating listed bat mortality .
this species is brown to tan in colour and has long ears from 19 to 27 mm . its diagnostic feature is the low , rounded and hairless ridge on the muzzle behind the noseleaf .
the subspecies nyctophilus bifax daedalus , which occurs from gulf of carpentaria , eastern queensland to western australia may soon be elevated to species status ( h . parnaby pers . comm . ) . records of this species from new guinea , although included here , are unlikely to represent this species ( parnaby and churchill 2008 ) .
this bat has long ears and a shallow muzzle ridge groove . the fur is dark grey - brown with slightly lighter tips . it weighs between 11 - 20 g , with females ( 14 - 21 g ) usually heavier than males ( 11 - 15 g ) . it has a head to body length of 50 - 75 mm , and a tail length of 35 - 50 mm .
found from cape york through eastern queensland to the far north - east corner of nsw . in nsw they appear to be confined to the coastal plain and nearby coastal ranges , extending south to the clarence river area , with a few records further south around coffs harbour . the species can be locally common within its restricted range .

after fertilization , pregnant females migrate to summer areas where they roost in small colonies and give birth to a single pup . maternity colonies of females and young generally have 30 to 60 bats at the beginning of the summer , although larger maternity colonies have also been seen . numbers of individuals in roosts , typically decreases from pregnancy to post - lactation . most bats within a maternity colony give birth around the same time , which may occur from late may or early june to late july , depending where the colony is located within the species’ range . young bats start flying by 18 to 21 days after birth . maximum lifespan for the northern long - eared bat is estimated to be up to to 18 . 5 years .
other sources of mortality : although no significant population declines have been observed due to the sources of mortality listed below , they may now be important factors affecting this bat’s viability until we find ways to address white - nose syndrome .

this species has been found to range up to 7 . 06 km from its roost when foraging at night . most roosts are used for just a single day before the bat moves to a new roost site , and it can move large distances ( up to 5 . 88 km ) between consecutive roost sites .
this microbat species has a scattered distribution mostly within the murray - darling basin , but with some records outside of this area . it is more common in box , ironbark and cypress pine woodland on the western slopes and plains . its stronghold seems to be the pilliga scrub . it roosts in tree hollows , crevices and under loose bark . it is a slow flying agile bat that hunts for non - flying prey , especially caterpillars and beetles ( oeh 2012 ) .
impacts to hibernacula : gates or other structures intended to exclude people from caves and mines not only restrict bat flight and movement , but also change airflow and internal cave and mine microclimates . a change of even a few degrees can make a cave unsuitable for hibernating bats . also , cave - dwelling bats are vulnerable to human disturbance while hibernating . arousal during hibernation causes bats to use up their already reduced energy stores , which may lead to individuals not surviving the winter .

justification : this species is listed as least concern . although it is known only from a few localities in new guinea , the species is widespread in australia , does not appear to have any major threats , and there is no reason to believe the species is in decline .
this species has been recorded from northern australia and the island of new guinea ( papua province , indonesia and papua new guinea ) . in australia it is present in north western australia , north northern territory , coastal queensland , and north - east new south wales . on new guinea , it has only been recorded from a few widely scattered localities . it ranges from sea level to 500 m asl in queensland ( l . hall pers . comm . ) , but probably occurs 0 - 400 m asl elsewhere .
in queensland it is common and widespread , and in the west of the range it is common but localised ( n . mckenzie pers . comm . ) . in new guinea , it is known only from a few specimens .
this species forages for insects in rainforest and sclerophyll woodland , and it is often associated with waterbodies in these habitats ( bonaccorso 1998 ; parnaby and churchill 2008 ) . in the kimberley and pilbara , it is found in rainforest and riparian zones ( n . mckenzie pers . comm . ) . animals roost communally in hollow tress , dense foliage , or in houses . females often give birth to twins ( parnaby and churchill 2008 ) .
in general there appear to be no major threats to this species . however , they require a range of available roosting sites for survival ( parnaby and churchill 2008 ) . the status of populations on new guinea needs further investigation ( bonaccorso 1998 ) . riparian zones are being degraded throughout australia , which may pose local threats ( n . mckenzie pers . comm . ) .
it is present in many protected areas in northern australia and has been recorded from the kau wildlife area in papua new guinea . further studies are needed into the distribution , status , and threats to this species on new guinea . additional taxonomic research is also needed .

reproduction : breeding begins in late summer or early fall when males begin to swarm near hibernacula . after copulation , females store sperm during hibernation until spring . in spring , they emerge from their hibernacula , ovulate and the stored sperm fertilizes an egg . this strategy is called delayed fertilization .
disease management : actions have been taken to try to reduce or slow the spread of white - nose syndrome through human transmission of the fungus into caves ( e . g . cave and mine closures and advisories ; national decontamination protocols ) . a national plan was prepared by the service and other state and federal agencies that details actions needed to investigate and manage white - nose syndrome . many state and federal agencies , universities and non - governmental organizations are researching this disease to try to control its spread and address its affect . see urltoken for more .
hibernacula protection : many federal and state natural resource agencies and conservation organizations have protected caves and mines that are important hibernacula for cave - dwelling bats .
do not disturb hibernating bats : to protect bats and their habitats , comply with all cave and mine closures , advisories , and regulations . in areas without a cave and mine closure policy , follow approved decontamination protocols ( see urltoken ) - under no circumstances should clothing , footwear , or equipment that was used in a white - nose syndrome affected state or region be used in unaffected states or regions .
join and volunteer : join a conservation group ; many have local chapters . volunteer at a local nature center , zoo , or national wildlife refuge . many state natural resource agencies benefit greatly from citizen involvement in monitoring wildlife . check your state agency websites and get involved in citizen science efforts in your area .
