Trade now appears to be the greatest threat to most Nycticebus spp., irrespective of their placement on Appendix 1 by CITES in 2007. In Indonesia, high demand for lorises as
pets, combined with loris’inability to escape hunters due to slow evasion strategies, has lead to their constant supply in trade with a subsequent influx of confiscated individuals
in rescue centres. At many sites, confiscated lorises are hard-released with no monitoring. To ensure welfare of released individuals and wild populations, improved strategies
are needed for reintroduction restocking projects. Monitoring of nine newly-seized N. Javanicus, for the purposes of potential release was conducted over three months in 2009.
Release of the lorises deemed to be in good health and possess adequate survinal skills is proposed to take place on Gunung Salak in 2010. Release sites will be assessed for sufficient
food sources and must be far enough away from any human activities to minimize the chance of re-capture. Post-release monitoring using radio collars will take place over the
subsequent months following the release to ensure the welfare of the released individuals. Furthermore, the monitoring will enable the collection of baseline data on ecology, range
use and sociality of this highly cryptic species. Successes and failures of the project will be analysed in a report for dissemination to other animal welfare agencies, government
officials and conservationists.

The ability of mangrove trees to tolerate salinity allows them to grow in estuaries and coastal regions in the tropics and subtropics. Mangroves Rhizophoraceae are utilized
for timber, fuel, dyes, and medicines, and thus form an essential part of the daily lives of local people, affecting their culture and livelihoods. However, in Southeast Asia many
mangrove areas have suffered deforestation and over-exploitation and been degraded by the creation of cultivation ponds for shrimp fisheries.
Since the mid-1990s, however, many Southeast Asian countries have attempted to conserve and re-forest degraded mangrove areas as a sustainable coastal resource. People
now recognize that destruction and degradation of mangrove areas has a negative impact; therefore, such areas have been revaluated and are now considered important places for
feeding and spawning of coastal fish and aquatic invertebrates.
To examine current mangrove re-forestation activity, I conducted preliminary field work on the island of Sulawesi, from July to August 2008, and also collected information
on mangrove re-forestation activities from the forest administration of each research area. This revealed that the value of re-forested mangrove areas is currently assessed
quantitavely e.g. in terms of forested area, etc. and has not been assessed qualitatively e.g. in terms of biodiversity, etc.. In considering appropriate management of re-forested
mangrove areas as a sustainable coastal resource for the future, it is also necessary to assess the environmental impact of mangrove re-forestation activities from a qualitative
perspective.
The first goal of this research is to examine procedures for assessing the influence of the local environment on mangrove ecosystems.

Abstrak
The Indo-West Pacific IWP has the highest marine biodiversity in the world. Although terrestrial biologists rely heavily on allopatric models to explain speciation and
the creation of biodiversity, the appropriateness of allopatric divergence is questionable in marine ecosystems where pelagic larval dispersal is assumed to facilitate gene flow and
limit genetic differentiation among geographically isolated populations. Our previous work in Indonesia has identified sharp regional genetic breaks in stomatopod, clam, and
fish populations throughout the IWP, suggesting that the Malucca and Flores Java Seas may act as barriers to pelagic larval dispersal, suggesting that the interplay of physical
oceanography and larval dispersal ability may facilitate allopatric divergence.
This project is an extension of permit 59FRPSMI2008, which focuses on understanding how the geologic history and physical oceanography of the Coral
Triangle promotes or prevents the evolution of novel biodiversity. In close partnership with Universitas Udayana, Undip, UNIPA, and LIPI P2O, we will examine patterns of larval
connectivity throughout Indonesia and compare to predictions from models of larval dispersal.
This research project will form the foundation of a collaborative training effort for both US and Indonesian students and researchers. It will provide significant training
opportunities for Indonesians through training efforts in Indonesian Universities. Results will be extremely valuable in helping identify regions for marine conservation efforts
associated with the Coral Triangle Initiative.

Abstrak
Indonesia coelacanth, Latimeria menadoensis, was found in Manado, Province Sulawesi Utara in 1997. In December 1992, 2 living coelacanths were filmed in north
Sulawesi about 300km far from Manado, but since then there has been no record. Our researches since 2005 were conducted in the north area of Sulawesi Island and succeed
to find out the coelacanth habitat around Buol, Central Sulawesi Province. In addition, the living coelacanth was filmed in Manado Bay. However detailed information likee the
range of distribution, population, life history and other behavior are still unknown.
Aquamarine Fukushima has established good cooperation with LIPI and Sam Ratulangi University and conduct Indonesian coelacanth survey together. We need to
make it stronger and should study ecosystem in Sulawesi water including the coelacanth as a next step.
The aim of the study is to clear the coelacanth biology and habitat in Indonesia. The result of video materials recorded will be utilized for the education and public awareness
of the coelacanth conservations. This survey will be conducted together with researchers of the Research Center for Oceanography, LIPI and the Faculty of Fisheries and Marine
Science of Sam Ratulangi University. Through this survey they will get basic scientific data around the survey area.
The result of this survey will be shared between AMF, LIPI and UNSRAT. It must avail for the conservation of coelacanth and the marine resource in this area.

In addition, because the range of distribution of the coelacanth is expected to exist wider in Indonesia, the survey area should expand gradually to other places.
