COPYRIGHT © 2011 Fauna & Flora International www.fauna-flora.org i Fauna & Flora International (FFI) Established in 1903 in the UK, FFI acts to conserve threatened species and ecosystems worldwide, choosing solutions that are sustainable, are based on sound science and take account of human needs. In 2000, FFI published a status review of gibbons in Vietnam and for over a decade has been actively involved in conserving Vietnam's most endangered gibbons. Primate conservation is a core area of interest for FFI's programme in Vietnam. Conservation International (CI) Founded in 1987, CI builds upon a strong foundation of science, partnership and field demonstration, to empower societies to responsibly and sustainably care for nature, our global biodiversity, for the well-being of humanity. CI has worked on field surveys, technical publications, capacity development and fund dispersal over the past four years to help conserve Vietnam’s threatened gibbons. IUCN/SSC Primate Specialist Group The Primate Specialist Group (PSG) is concerned with the conservation of more than 630 species and subspecies of prosimians, monkeys, and apes, carrying out conservation status assessments, the compilation of action plans, making recommendations on taxonomic issues, and publishing information on primates to inform IUCN policy as a whole. The PSG facilitates the exchange of critical information among primatologists and the professional conservation community. Arcus Foundation Founded in 2000 by Jon Stryker, the Arcus Foundation is a leading global foundation advancing pressing social justice and conservation issues. Through its programme for Great Apes in the Wild, Arcus works to ensure that viable populations of great apes are protected from extinction and living in habitats that are managed sustainably and holistically, as well as integrated with economic development objectives. Nowak-Sprague SE Asia Biodiversity Initiative The Nowak-Sprague SE Asia Biodiversity Initiative (NSSEABI) was created by the Nowak-Sprague family with the goal to preserve biodiversity and pristine places along with humanitarian goals in South-East Asia. The NSSEABI allocates grants to existing organizations, and has worked closely with Conservation International and Pathfinder International in Vietnam, focusing on primate conservation and human development projects. ii The Conservation Status of Gibbons in Vietnam Table of contents Acknowledgements.....................................................................................................................................................vi Conventions...................................................................................................................................................................vii Abbreviations and Acronyms....................................................................................................................................x Summary..........................................................................................................................................................................xi 1 Introduction ............................................................................................................................................................3 2 The Conservation Status of Gibbons in Vietnam .......................................................................................7 2.1 Gibbon Populations Trends ................................................................................................................................... 7 2.2 Protection Status for Vietnam’s Gibbons........................................................................................................... 9 2.3 Priority Sites for Gibbon Conservation in Vietnam.......................................................................................12 2.4 Overall Threats to Gibbons...................................................................................................................................14 2.5 Concluding Remarks...............................................................................................................................................17 3 Eastern Black Gibbon Nomascus nasutus .................................................................................................. 22 3.1 Global Status and Distribution............................................................................................................................22 3.2 Summary of Status and Distribution in Vietnam ..........................................................................................22 3.3 Nomascus nasutus Records in Vietnam ............................................................................................................23 3.4 Locations where Nomascus nasutus is Now Considered Absent.............................................................25 3.5 Sites with No New Data Since 2000...................................................................................................................26 4 Western Black Gibbon Nomascus concolor .............................................................................................. 30 4.1 Global Status and Distribution............................................................................................................................30 4.2 Summary of Status and Distribution in Vietnam ..........................................................................................31 4.3 Nomascus concolor Records in Vietnam...........................................................................................................32 4.4 Locations where Nomascus concolor is Now Considered Absent ...........................................................37 4.5 Sites with No New Data Since 2000...................................................................................................................37 5 Northern White-cheeked Gibbon Nomascus leucogenys .................................................................... 40 5.1 Global Status and Distribution............................................................................................................................40 5.2 Summary of Status and Distribution in Vietnam ..........................................................................................41 5.3 Nomascus leucogenys Records in Vietnam......................................................................................................42 5.4 Locations where Nomascus leucogenys is Now Considered Absent.......................................................51 5.5 Sites with No New Data Since 2000...................................................................................................................53 6 Southern White-cheeked Gibbon Nomascus siki ..................................................................................

The authors are also grateful to the officials at village, commune, and district levels in Lam Ha and Di Linh districts as well as those at the provincial level in Da Lat for facilitating the assessment and patiently responding to the various queries. Important contributions to the assessment were made by trainers, collaborators of the UN-REDD Viet Nam Programme and from government officials at national level. Special thanks also for the staff of the UN-REDD Viet Nam Programme whose logistical and administrative support allowed the mission to proceed smoothly. Finally, thanks to Regional Office of the United Nations Environment Programme and the UN-REDD Programme at regional level for their contributions to the design of the process.

  • In Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam Are Revised
    E D I N B U R G H J O U R N A L O F B O T A N Y 66 (3): 391–446 (2009) 391 Ó Trustees of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh (2009) doi:10.1017/S0960428609990047 AREVISIONOFAESCHYNANTHUS ( GESNERIACEAE)INCAMBODIA, LAOS AND VIETNAM D. J. MIDDLETON The species of Aeschynanthus Jack (Gesneriaceae) in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam are revised. Eighteen species are recognised, keys to the species are given, all names are typified, and detailed descriptions of all species are provided. Conservation assessments are given for all species. Aeschynanthus cambodiensis D.J.Middleton, Aeschynanthus jouyi D.J.Middleton and Aeschynanthus pedunculatus D.J.Middleton are newly described. Keywords. Aeschynanthus, Cambodia, Gesneriaceae, Laos, taxonomic revision, Vietnam. Introduction This paper marks the second in a series of geographical revisions of the genus Aeschynanthus Jack (Gesneriaceae) which began with an account of the genus in Thailand (Middleton, 2007b). The previous work also included historical back- ground to the genus and a discussion of the characters. Although it was initially intended that the whole of Aeschynanthus would be monographed region by region, the research has revealed that, due to previously unknown synonymy, there is considerably more overlap in species between areas than was appreciated at the beginning of the project. Therefore, after this publication I now intend to publish the monograph as a complete work at the end and only produce regional revisions, like this one and the Thai revision, where they can feed directly into ongoing Flora projects. Pellegrin (1926, 1930) published two accounts of Aeschynanthus in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.

Technical Assistance Information Clearing House 200 Park Avenue South, New York, N. Y. 10003 THE AMERICAN COUNCIL OF VOLUNTARY AGENCIES FOR FOREIGN SERVICE was established in 1943 to provide a means for consultation, coordination and planning, and to assure the maximum effective use of contributions by the American community for the assistance of people overseas. Through the Council, 44 member American voluntary agencies engaged in programs of active service overseas now coordinate their plans and activities both at home and abroad, not only among themselves but also with non-member agencies and governmental, inter­ governmental and international organizations. Since 1955 the Council has operated the Technical Assistance Information Clearing House under contract with the United States Agency for International Development. THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE INFORMATION CLEARING HOUSE serves as a center of infor­ mation on the socia-economic development programs abroad of U.S. non-profit organizations. Through publications and the maintenance of an inquiry service, it makes available to organizations, the government, researchers, and other users, information about development assistance with particular reference to the resources and concerns of the private, voluntary, non­ profit sector. THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON VOLUNTARY FOREIGN AID was established in 1946 by Presidential Directive "to tie together the governmental and private programs in the field of foreign relief and to work with interested agencies and groups." The purpose of the Committee is to guide the public and the agencies seeking the support of the public, in the appropriate and productive use of voluntary contributions for foreign aid.
