In the current context of climate change, with the repeated arrival of strong winds from nearby coasts, the phenomenon is likely to worsen. This study presents the characteristics of the biological invasion of Psidium. cattleyanum var. Coriaceum in Grande-Comore using quantitative structural data of its population and modeling of its ecological niche. The uses of the species and its socio-economic importance were defined by means of a population survey. The overall results revealed the species' invasion status through density, relative frequency, regeneration potential and horizontal distribution model. The modeling of its ecological niche has shown that all the wooded areas of the island are potential sites of the species. Socioeconomic surveys have shown that Psidium. Cattleyanum is a multipurpose species well appreciated by the people. The fight against this invasion very common to all the islands of the southwest of the Indian Ocean faces, in this island of the archipelago of Comoros, a conflict of interest between the conservation of biodiversity and satisfaction the needs of these populations.

  • Epidemiology of the Invasion by Miconia Calvescens And
    J.-Y. Meyer 4 EPIDEMIOLOGY OF THE INVASION BY MICONIA CALVESCENS AND REASONS FOR A SPECTACULAR SUCCESS ÉPIDÉMIOLOGIE DE L’INVASION PAR MICONIA CALVESCENS ET RAISONS D’UN SUCCÈS SPECTACULAIRE JEAN-YVES MEYER1, 2 1 Délégation à la Recherche, B.P. 20981 Papeete, Tahiti, POLYNÉSIE FRANÇAISE. 2 Cooperative National Park Resource Studies Unit, Botany Department, University of Hawai’i at Manoa, Honolulu, HAWAI’I (USA). Miconia calvescens is a small tree native to rainforests of tropical America where it is uncommon. First described around 1850, it was introduced to European tropical greenhouses then distributed to tropical botanical gardens all over the world because of its horticultural success. M.c. was introduced as an ornamental plant in the Society Islands and the Hawaiian Islands and in 25-35 years became a dominant invasive plant in both archipelagoes. Small populations were recently discovered in the Marquesas Islands (Nuku Hiva and Fatu Iva) in 1997. M.c. is also naturalized in private gardens of New Caledonia and Grenada (West Indies), in tropical forests of Sri Lanka, and in the Queensland region in Australia. The survey of the epidemiology of invasion in Tahiti shows that M.c.’s extension was slow but continuous since its introduction in 1937. Hurricanes of 1982-83 played more a role of “revealer” rather than of “detonator” of the invasion. The lag phase observed between the introduction date and the observation of dense populations may be explained by the generation time of M.c.. Several hypothesis may explain the spectacular success of M.c.: (1) the characteristics of the invaded area; (2) the plant’s bio-ecological characteristics; (3) the “facilitation phenomenon“ and the “opportunities“.

In July 2013, a total of 86 full floristic and 105 rapid floristic sites were sampled across the island, based on a stratified random sampling design. A hierarchical agglomerative clustering strategy (Flexible UPGMA) and Bray-Curtis dissimilarity coefficient with default beta, along with nearest neighbour analysis to identify anomalous site allocations, was used to analyze the floristic data. In total 33 vegetation communities were delineated and mapped: 19 mapping units from the full floristic analysis; 7 variants identified within five of the above 19 groups; 3 mapping units from analysis of canopy- only floristic data; and 4 mapping units recognised in previous studies that are mapped but were not sampled in this survey.

Domestication is considered a constant process that occurs along a continuum from wild to managed to domesticated populations. Management may lead to the modification of populations and in other cases to their distribution, changing population structure in a landscape. Our objective Edited by: Ana Haydeé Ladio, is focused on the management received in home gardens by perennial species of fruits.

Decanato de Agronomía. Universidad Centroccidental “Lisandro Alvarado”. Barquisimeto, Venezuela. [email protected] Resumen Se presenta una lista preliminar de especies vasculares de diferentes localidades de la Sierra de Baragua del estado Lara, Venezuela. La recolección botánica se realizó entre abril 2011 y octubre 2013, las muestras colectadas se trataron siguiendo el proceso tradicional de herborización. Se utilizó el sistema de clasificación APG III. Un total de 42 familias de plantas fueron registradas: 41 de Angiospermas y una familia de Pteridophyta. Las Angiospermas divididas en 37 familias de Eudicotiledóneas y cuatro de Monocotiledóneas, las cuales incluyen 113 y cuatro especies respectivamente. Las familias con mayor número de géneros fueron: Capparaceae con nueve, Fabaceae Mimosoideae y Myrtaceae con siete cada una, Malvaceae con cinco, Cactaceae, Fabaceae Caesalpinioideae, Fabaceae Faboideae y Malpighiaceae con cuatro cada una. Los géneros con mayor número de especies fueron: Cynophallas con cuatro y, Casearia y Eugenia con tres. La continua e inadecuada acción antrópica en la sierra de Baragua aunado el efecto erosivo del agua y la poca cobertura vegetal pondría en riesgo la gran diversidad existente, por lo que su conocimiento juega un papel muy importante ya que proporciona bases para su apropiada preservación. Palabras clave: Recolección botánica, herborización, diversidad, preservación. Abstract A preliminary list of vascular plant species from different localities in Sierra de Baragua, Lara state, Venezuela is presented.

MOUND & ALICE WELLS Australian National Insect Collection CSIRO, PO Box 1700, Canberra, ACT 2601. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The thrips fauna of Norfolk Island is a curious mix of endemics and adventives, with notable absences that include one major trophic group. A brief introduction is provided to the history of human settlement and its ecological impact on this tiny land mass in the western Pacific Ocean. The Thysanoptera fauna comprises about 20% endemic and almost 50% widespread invasive species, and shows limited faunal relationships to the nearest territories, Australia, New Caledonia and New Zealand. This fauna, comprising 66 species, includes among named species 29 Terebrantia and 33 Tubulifera, with four Tubulifera remaining undescribed. At least 12 species are endemics, of which 10 are mycophagous, and up to 10 further species are possibly native to the island.
