The journal “eco.mont” – Journal of protected mountain areas research and management – was published for the first time in June 2009. The journal was founded as a joint initiative of the Alpine Network of Protected Areas (ALPARC), the International Scientific Committee on Research in the Alps (ISCAR), the Austrian Academy of Sciences (ÖAW) and the University of Innsbruck. The journal aims to highlight research on and management issues in protected areas in the Alps without excluding other protected mountain areas in Europe or overseas. Its target audiences are scientists from all related disciplines, managers of protected areas and interested individuals including practitioners, visitors, teachers, etc. The journal presents peer-reviewed articles in English by authors who research protected mountain areas and management issues within these areas. It's published twice a year as a collaboration of the Austrian Academy of Sciences Press – responsible for the e-version – and Innsbruck University Press – responsible for the print version.

Abstract

Wuyishan National Nature Reserve is located in the northwest of the Wuyi Mountain Range in northeastern Jiangxi Province. The fish fauna of mountain streams in the nature reserve was investigated seasonally from June 2015 to May 2016. A total of 2 505 samples were collected and classified into 7 families and 16 species. None of those collected in the nature reserve were alien species. Overall, 9 species (56.3% of the total number of fish species collected) were found to be endemic to China. The dominant species were Pseudogastromyzon fasciatus (IRI, 48.23%) and Onychostoma barbatulum (IRI, 46.39%); the common species were Acrossocheilus parallens (IRI, 9.76%), Formosania stigmata (IRI, 4.32%) and Zacco platypus (IRI, 1.15%). There were negative correlations between altitude and total number of species (S), altitude and Margalef index (D), and altitude and Shannon-Wiener index (H). Current threats to the conservation of fish species in the nature reserve were reviewed and management solutions were suggested.
