Many areas of rain forest now exist as habitat fragments, and understanding the impacts of fragmentation is important for determining the viability of populations within forest remnants. We investigated impacts of forest fragmentation on genetic diversity in the butterfly Mycalesis orseis (Satyrinae) in Sabah (Malaysian Borneo). We investigated mtDNA diversity in 90 individuals from ten forest sites typical of the sizes of forest remnants that currently exist in the region. Nucleotide diversity declined with increasing isolation of remnants, but there was no effect of remnant size or population size, and haplotype diversity was similar among sites. Thus, approximately 50 y after forest fragmentation, few changes in genetic diversity were apparent and remnants apparently supported genetically viable populations of this butterfly. Many studies have shown that responses of species to habitat fragmentation usually follow a time delay, and so we developed a Monte Carlo simulation model to investigate changes in genetic diversity over time in small remnants. Model output indicated a substantial time delay (> 100 y) between fragmentation and genetic erosion, suggesting that, in the smallest study remnants, an increased risk of extinction from reduced genetic diversity is likely in the longer term.

The present study and the associated classification system is a continuation of work initiated by White (1989).

In 2009 The Hoosier Genealogist: Connections included two issues, Winter/Spring and Summer/Fall. Editorials and feature articles included in these issues were: “Old Ed’ard Sayings” The “Greatest Generation” Hands Down Its Wisdom with Pithy Proverbs from Times Past; Research Serendipity: Uncanny “Coincidences” During the Course of Family History Work Lead to Exciting Breakthroughs; A Popular Outlet for Spare Time: Indiana Women’s Clubs—Their Members and Activities Around the Turn of the Twentieth Century; Dark Clouds in the Mind: An Overview of Mental Health Care in Indiana’s State Hospital for the Insane, 1850s through 1930s; Mental Health Records: Accessing Indiana State Hospital Records for Family History Research. Also included in these issues are regional sources, stories and genealogical records from several counties. Additional highlighted collections include Indianapolis Gardeners Benefit Society., The Indiana Historical Society began publishing the award-winning journal The Hoosier Genealogist for members in 1961. It contained indexes and other data that served as keys into rare source material such as diaries, ledgers and public records. In 2007, the name changed to THG: Connections, and today, THG: Connections is a biannual magazine of in-depth articles.
