Publication date 2015 ISSN 1936-296X Summary For wild varanid populations, basic measures of reproductive ecology, such as distribution and selection of nest sites, are difficult to obtain. To date, nest distributions and nesting behavior for Komodo dragons (Varanus komodoensis) have only been reported from Komodo National Park. Here we report the first record of V. komodoensis nesting activity and hatchling emergence on Ontoloe Island, off the north coast of Flores. This is a significant finding for it suggests that this relatively small but well protected island supports a viable population of V. komodoensis Language eng Field of Research 050202 Conservation and Biodiversity Socio Economic Objective 970106 Expanding Knowledge in the Biological Sciences HERDC Research category C1 Refereed article in a scholarly journal ERA Research output type C Journal article Copyright notice ©2015, International Varanid Interest Group Persistent URL http://hdl.handle.net/10536/DRO/DU:30081104 Document type: Journal Article Collection: School of Life and Environmental Sciences Related Links Link Description Connect to Elements publication management system Go to link with your DU access privileges     Unless expressly stated otherwise, the copyright for items in DRO is owned by the author, with all rights reserved.
