Description
The first expedition to Nassau Mountain was carried out as a Rapid Assessment by Conservation International between 25 October and 6 November 2005. The RAP expedition visited both Nassau and Lely Mts. No personnel of NZCS was involved, however some specimens are stored in the NZCS collections. In 2006 NZCS was asked to be involved in a search for the micro-endemic Hartiella crassicauda that was found at Nassau Mt. This trip was carried out between 29 March and 4 April 2006. During this trip observations on amphibians and reptiles were done as well, and some were collected. The team for this trip consisted of Jan Mol, Frank van der Lugt, Kenneth Wan Tong You, Paul Ouboter and Adrian Flynn. Based on the findings of the above-mentioned surveys, a third trip was organized from 15 to 24 July 2006, resulting in many additions to the herpetofauna of the area. The team for this trip was made up of Paul Ouboter, Rawien Jairam and Kenneth Wan Tong You. An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) was carried out for the Nassau area between 10 and 23 May 2010 as a preparation for bauxite mining. NZCS was only involved in the herpetological part. The team consisted of Usha Satnarain, Rawien Jairam and Kenneth Wan Tong You. In December 2014 a forth trip to Nassau Mountain was carried out by Antoine Fouguet and Rawien Jairam to collect amphibians.

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
The sampling methods were specific for amphibians and reptiles and fishes, which included transect walks, hand sampling and seining.
Etendue de l'étude | Nassau Mountain plateaus were sampled sampled five times. |
---|---|
Contrôle qualité | In some cases the identification of specimens was rechecked by foreign experts. |
Description des étapes de la méthode:
- Amphibians and reptiles were collected using line transects during night and day surveys and were collected by hand when encountered; Fishes were collected using dip nets and seining. 2. The specimens were labeled in the field and after identification a collection number was assigned to each specimen. 3. The vertebrate specimens were first preserved in formaldehyde and then transferred into 70% Ethanol. 4. All specimens were identified to species using literature and keys. Some specimens were identified abroad.
