The human malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax is more resistant to malaria control strategies than Plasmodium falciparum, and maintains high genetic diversity even when transmission is low. To investigate whether declining P. vivax transmission leads to increasing population structure that would facilitate elimination, we genotyped samples from across the Southwest Pacific region, which experienc...
To date, a high degree of polymorphism has been demonstrated at both the MSP1 and MSP2 loci in parasites from areas of stable malaria transmission. As a consequence, in such areas it is rare to find parasites of the same 2-locus genotype in more than 1 subject. We have studied MSP1 and MSP2 diversity in parasites collected from subjects with both symptomatic (n = 86) and asymptomatic (34) malar...
Endemic malaria still exists in the Republic of Vanuatu, an 80-island archipelago that sits astride the southeast margin of the Southeast Asian-Melanesian malaria band (Buxton Line 170 degrees E, 20 degrees S). The annual parasite incidence has decreased dramatically over the past decade, which has been attributed to an intensive insecticide-treated bednet distribution program and implementatio...
The South Pacific countries of Vanuatu, Samoa, and Papua New Guinea have ascended rapidly up the development spectrum in recent years, refining an independent and post-colonial economic and political identity that enhances their recognition on the world stage. All three countries have overcome economic, political and public health challenges in order to stake their claim to sovereignty. In this...
During the Global Biodiversity Survey “Santo 2006” conducted in Espiritu Santo, Vanuatu, mayfl y larvae were collected in several streams of the island. This contribution deals with the larvae of Baetidae (Insecta: Ephemeroptera) that are represented by two species: Labiobaetis paradisus n. sp. and Cloeon sp. The presence of these two genera is not surprising as they both possess almost a world...
A new goatfish, Upeneus vanuatu (Mullidae), is described based on five specimens collected off two islands of Vanuatu (South Pacific), at depths of 191-321 m, and compared with five closely related species: Upeneus davidaroni (Red Sea), U. mascareinsis (Western Indian Ocean), U. stenopsis (northern Australia, Philippines, 127-275 m), and the more shallow-occurring Indo-West Pacific species U. s...
The 18 species of finless snake eels of the genus Apterichtus (family Ophichthidae, subfamily Ophichthinae) are reviewed. Included are: A. anguiformis from the Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic; A. ansp from the Carolinas to Brazil in the western Atlantic; A. australis from South and Central Pacific islands, including Japan; A. caecus from the Mediterranean and eastern Atlantic; A. equatoriali...
Nafsan (ISO 639-3: erk, Glottocode: sout2856), also known as South Efate, is a Southern Oceanic language of Vanuatu. It spoken in Erakor, Eratap and Pango, three villages situated along the southern coast island Efate (Figure 1) (Clark 1985, Lynch 2000, Thieberger 2006). closely related to Eton, Lelepa, Nakanamanga Namakura, further north on some smaller neighbouring islands.1 often described s...
BACKGROUND Behaviour and time spent active and inactive are key factors in animal ecology, with important consequences for bioenergetics. For the first time, here, we equipped the gastropod Tectus (= Trochus) niloticus with accelerometers to describe activity rhythms at two sites in the Southwest Pacific with different temperature regimes: New Caledonia and Vanuatu. RESULTS Based on a 24-hour...
