Abstract: | Herpetological researchers in Kyoto University have conducted several systematic studies in recent years in Sarawak by joint research with the Japan Research Consortium for Tropical Forests (JRCTS) and co-operating with the Forest Department Sarawak. As an outcome, several new amphibian species were described during the last decade. Most of these species had been confused with already known species (i.e., had been cryptic species), but were proven to be distinct species largely based on molecular phylogenetic analyses. Systematic work on amphibians of Sarawak is now becoming active, and further collaborative studies are required. |
Description: | This proceeding is a compilation of findings and progress activities of research collaboration between the Forest Department Sarawak (FDS) and the Japan Research Consortium for Tropical Forests in Sarawak (JRCTS). To highlight the research findings, An International Symposium entitled "Frontier in Tropical Forest Research: Progress in Joint Projects between the Forest Department Sarawak and the Japan Research Consortium for Tropical Forests in Sarawak" was ii held in Kuching, Sarawak on 21-22 September 2015. |
