From: (Sepilok2010 .) Date: Wed, 2 Jul 2014 05:50:36 +0800 Subject: [Mastwatch] 2014 Masting Status: O Hi All, As the Mastwatch list has been quiet recently and seedfall should be starting soon - I was wondering how the 2014 Masting is developing in other parts of Borneo/SE Asia. Our phenology data from Sepilok is interesting. Overall about 34% of our Dipts flowered (compared to 60% in 2010), apart from an overall low % of trees flowering - there are also marked differences in what flowered. The flowering event has been dominated by the early-flowering species (e.g. Dipterocarpus grandiflorus, Parashorea spp., Shorea xanthophylla) with on average 70+% of the individuals flowering (similar to what we saw in 2010). The big difference is that the species that follow on from these ones (Shorea johorensis, S smithiana, etc.) haven't really gone this year - with most of the later flowering species having less than 10% of the individuals flowering.

Leuser National Park, North Sumatra. I found many flowering Shorea, Vatica and Dipterocarpus. Other families also had many flowered trees. Masting occurred in North Sumatra, also.

The parashorea look like ready to drop in less than a month. Other dips S. Leprosula, S. Parvifolia also fruiting but a bit further behind parashorea.
