Vol. 36 No. 1 (1992): Silliman Journal
This special issue on biodiversity comes in response to the urgent need to document our biological resources and to understand them better before they disappear. Very interesting and useful information is given here on a wide array of organisms including bats, deer, wild pigs, whales and dolphins, and mangroves. Two articles deal with freshwater ecosystems and the resources found therein. Extinction
of plants after the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo is also documented. In most of these articles, management strategies are suggested. Finally, a good bibliography on mammals is contributed.
We hope the readers will enjoy this issue. The Editorial Board wishes to apologize for the delay in its appearance.
