Gà lôi hông tía, Lophura diardi, thuộc Bộ gà (Galliformes) đang bị đe dọa do mất nơi sinh sống và săn bắt. Đây là những thách thức lớn đối với bảo tồn loài. Nhằm cung cấp cơ sở khoa học cho bảo tồn loài gà lôi hông tía, chúng tôi đã sử dụng bẫy chụp ảnh để nghiên cứu tại Vườn quốc gia Lò Gò-Xa Mát từ năm 2017 đến năm 2018. | Sử dụng bẫy chụp ảnh đánh giá hiện trạng và sinh cảnh sống của gà lôi hông tía (Lophura diardi) ở vườn quốc gia Lò Gò-Xa Mát, Việt Nam TAP CHI SINH HOC 2020, 42(1): 51–60 DOI: ASSESSING STATUS AND HABITAT OF SIAMESE FIREBACK (Lophura diardi) BY USING CAMERA TRAP IN LO GO-XA MAT NATIONAL PARK, VIETNAM Nguyen Tran Vy1,*, To Quang2, Ho Dac Long2, Hoang Van Hai2, Huynh Huu Phuong2, Nguyen Long Dien2, Nguyen Minh Tan3 1 Institute of Tropical Biology, VAST, Vietnam 2 Lo Go-Xa Mat National Park, Tay Ninh Province, Vietnam 3 Department of Science and Technology, Tay Ninh Province, Vietnam Received 17 October 2019, accepted 10 February 2020 ABSTRACT Siamese fireback, Lophura diardi, belonging to Galliformes is at risk due to habitat loss and hunting, which are main challenges to conservation of the species. In order to provide scientific information to conserve the L. diardi, we implemented a camera-trap survey in Lo Go-Xa Mat National Park from 2017 to 2018. Occupancy and Poisson regression models were used to investigate presence of the species and potential factors influencing the occurrence of the species in the study area. Our results showed that the probability of occurrence of the species at locations within the park was high at (–) and detection probability was relative low at (–). The best models consistently suggested that the abundance of the species was high in closed canopy forest cover (β = ), but appeared to be notably lower in areas far away from the ranger stations (β = ) and in places with high frequency of human (β = ). This research provided the first quantitative information of status and potential factors influencing occurrence of the L. diardi in the park, which is an essential data for developing practical actions to protect the species and monitoring program in the future for the park.
