加里曼丹的动物调查偏向于靠近海岸的保护森林中的灵长类动物。其他动物物种的记录相对较少,特别是在广阔的内陆森林中。本文报道了1996 ~ 1997年对加里曼丹中部巴里托乌卢热带低地森林中9种大型哺乳动物和8种犀鸟的调查结果。猪Sitsacrofatus有最高的生物量,但这是由于大量迁移通过研究区域超过4个月,居民人口可能很低。红叶猴和杂交长臂猿在所有留居种中生物量最高。在研究期间,该地区没有Crang-utans Pongo pygmaeus,也很少看到猪尾猕猴Macaca nemestrina。留鸟种(Anthracoceros malayanus、Anorrhizilms galeritus、Buceros vigil和B.犀牛)的密度比低地地区的报告高,但由于没有游牧的皱角犀鸟和犀鸟,犀鸟的总体密度较低。除了在高峰期的水果丰富。马来熊、长尾猕猴M.束生赤麂(Muntjacs Muntiacus spp.)和鼠鹿属(Tragulus spp.)都是低密度的两个大型松鼠物种,Ratufa affinis和Sundasciurus hippiurus的密度低于沙捞越的报告,但普雷沃斯特的松鼠Calosciurus prevostii的密度较高。我们讨论狩猎压力,隔离,低丰度的大型果树,土壤贫瘠,和特定的栖息地偏好作为可能的解释低哺乳动物和犀鸟密度在Barito Ulu。
Faunal surveys in Kalimantan have been biased towards primates in protected forests close to the coast. Relatively little has been documented on other animal species, particularly in the vast interior forests. The results of a 1996-97 census of nine large mammal and eight hornbill species in tropical lowland forest in Barito Ulu, Central Kalimantan are reported here. Pigs Sits barbatus had the highest biomass, but this was due to large numbers migrating through the study area over 4 months and the resident population is probably low. Langurs Presbytis rubicunda and hybrid gibbons Hylobates mulleri x agilis had the highest biomass of all resident species. Crang-utans Pongo pygmaeus were absent from the area during the study period and pig-tailed macaques Macaca nemestrina were rarely seen. The resident hornbill species (Anthracoceros malayanus, Anorrhilms galeritus, Buceros vigil and B. rhinoceros) had high densities compared to that reported from lowland areas, but overall hornbill density was low due to the absence of the nomadic Aceros corrugatus and A. undulatus, except during peak fruit abundance. Sun bears Helarctos malayanus, long-tailed macaques M. fascicularis, muntjacs Muntiacus spp. and mouse deer Tragulus spp. were at low densities. Density of two large squirrel species, Ratufa affinis and Sundasciurus hippiurus, was lower than has been reported in Sarawak, but the density of Prevost's squirrel Callosciurus prevostii was higher. We discuss hunting pressure, isolation, low abundance of large fruit trees, poor soils, and specific habitat preferences as possible explanations for the low mammal and hornbill density at Barito Ulu.
