On 7 December 2024, few individuals of E. tharis were observed and documented in Pelawan Forest, Namang  Village, Central Bangka  District, Bangka Island, Sumatra. In addition, there are two reports from citizen science platform about the presence of E. tharis in Bangka Island. The status of which subspecies is discussed, and it is possible that population of E. tharis from Bangka Island represent a new subspecies.

Abstract

This study provides an annotated checklist of macrofungi in Pelawan Forest, Bangka Island, Indonesia. A total of 59 species of macrofungi from 22 families were documented, highlighting the presence of macrofungi in the area. The families Polyporaceae, Agaricaceae, and Marasmiaceae were the most diverse, accounting for over 50% of the total species recorded. The most common family found was Polyporaceae, with 13 species. Our findings indicate that Pelawan Forest has significant economic potential related to macrofungi, such as species used as food or medicine. This study can serve as a reference for developing effective conservation and management strategies for the forest ecosystem in Bangka Island. Keywords: Bangka Island, biodiversity, Indonesia, macrofungi, Pelawan Forest.

Abstract

This study examines documented cases of humans being preyed upon or attempted to be preyed upon by Reticulated Pythons Malayopython reticulatus in Indonesia, spanning nearly a century from 1927 to 2025. Our study reveals 17 incidents, with snakes involved measuring between 5-8 meters in length. The victims' ages ranged from 13 to 90 years old, with 13 fatalities reported. Both males and females were affected, with 8 incidents involving men and 8 involving women. Sulawesi emerges as a hotspot for such encounters, accounting for a significant proportion of reported cases. This study highlights the importance of understanding human-python encounters and promoting a more harmonious coexistence between humans and wildlife in Indonesia. Keywords: human-wildlife coexistence, Indonesia, large snake, Malayopython reticulatus, Reticulated Python.

Abstract

This study reports new records of freshwater fish species from Simeulue Island, Aceh Province, Indonesia. A biodiversity survey conducted in July 2021 revealed five additional fish species not previously documented on the island, including Acentrogobius sp., Giuris margaritaceus, Cestraeus oxyrhyncus, Poecilia reticulata and Clarias sp. The survey also confirmed the presence of introduced species, such as Nile Tilapia Oreochromis niloticus and Guppy Poecilia reticulata, highlighting the need for monitoring and managing non-native species in the region. The discovery of C. oxyrhyncus, currently classified as Data Deficient, accentuates the importance of further research to determine its threats, ecology, population size, and trends. This study contributes to the understanding of freshwater fish diversity on Simeulue Island and emphasises the importance of conservation efforts to protect the biodiversity of small islands in Indonesia. Keywords: Aceh, freshwater fish, Indonesia, Simeulue Island, Sumatra.
