Climate, Community & Biodiversity Standards Third Edition. Edition of CCB Standards CCBA, Arlington, VA, USA. December, 2013. At: www.climate standards.org. Expected Climate Benefits: It is expected a total of 12,428,713 tCO2eq avoided emissions by the Project, opposing a baseline scenario of 14,727,148 tCO2eq emitted under an unplanned deforestation context. In the Project scenario, deforestation of 35,398 hectares is avoided and 414,290 tCO2eq are reduced yearly over a 30-year period. Expected Benefits to the Community: Promoting the welfare of the 130 residents of Resex and enhancement of extractive way of life through activities developed and promoted by REDD +, some of them: Brief Description of the Expected Benefits for Climate, Community and Social organization: Biodiversity monthly workshops with the board of Asmorex related to management and finance; Structuring of internal committees formed by residents in the following subjects: health and education, infrastructure and land tenure security. Health: Training of at least one health worker per community; Providing courses on hygiene, health and family planning for at least 20 families; Income generation: Installation of a processing center for açaí and bazillian nut; v3.0 1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION VCS Version 3, CCB Standards Third Edition Education: implementation and maintenance of an educational center for youth and adults; Facilitating access to distance learning courses for residents of three communities present in Resex. Infrastructure: Improvement of sanitary conditions in houses of families living in Resex; future implementation of 3 new communities, seating about 12 families. Empowerment of young people and women: Promotion of workshops on empowerment and leadership focus on the most vulnerable of public at Resex. Environment workshops and quarterly training for interested residents on the following topics: agroecology, waste disposal and composting Expected Biodiversity Benefits: Maintenance of forest cover in the Project Area ensures the protection of habitats, provision of natural resources and ecosystem services, enabling the continued provision of timber and non-timber forest products and favoring socio-economic stability in the region. The area is categorized as of “Very High” priority for conservation, as it contains several species in some degree of threat (according to IUCN) and for being located in the Endemism Center of Rondônia, one of the most important areas of bird endemism in South America. There are 16 species of flora with some degree of threat and restricted use, and 14 species of fauna, especially the bird Rhegmatorhina hoffmannsi (endemic of Rondonia) and the primate Ateles chamek which is Endangered. The project meets the criteria: GL2. Exceptional benefits for communities. The project is Community-led and implemented on a specific Brazilian category of Protected Area of which traditional communities own the rights of managing its resources. The project will generate short-term and long- Attendance to Gold Level term net positive well-being for community members and empowerment of Criteria community members. GL3. Exceptional benefits for Biodiversity. The Project zone includes a site of high conservation priority. It meets the vulnerability criteria, due to regular occurrence of threatened species, such as the Endangered (EN) Black-faced Black Spider Monkey (Ateles chamek), according to IUCN Red List. Date and Version of PDD May 15th 2016, version 2.2 First Verification on CCBS two years after Validation and verification Expected Verification consequently every two years during the Project life-cycle. Schedule VCS verification is expected to occur on every two years. v3.0 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION VCS Version 3, CCB Standards Third Edition “ARTE MATUTA” por Patativa do Assaré Eu nasci ouvindo os cantos das aves de minha serra e vendo os belos encantos que a mata bonita encerra foi ali que eu fui crescendo fui vendo e fui aprendendo no livro da natureza onde Deus é mais visível o coração mais sensível e a vida tem mais pureza. Sem poder fazer escolhas de livro artificial estudei nas lindas folhas do meu livro natural e, assim, longe da cidade lendo nessa faculdade que tem todos os sinais com esses estudos meus aprendi amar a Deus na vida dos animais. Quando canta o sabiá Sem nunca ter tido estudo eu vejo que Deus está por dentro daquilo tudo aquele pássaro amado no seu gorgeio sagrado nunca uma nota falhou na sua canção amena só canta o que Deus ordena só diz o que Deus mandou. v3.0 3 PROJECT DESCRIPTION VCS Version 3, CCB Standards Third Edition ÍNDEX 1 GENERAL .......................................................................................................................................... 10 1.1.

Using diversity indices (Shannon-Wiener), plant knowledge is compared among communities (urban- rural population), and between sex (male-female) and age (older or younger than 40 years) categories within each community. Among our informants, we found quantitative differences concerning the knowledge of medicinal plants between sex and age categories. Some individuals play a key role relating to medicinal plant knowledge, and steps should be taken in order to include them in management and conservation plans. Key words: ethnobotany, diversity indices, plant knowledge and use, Rio Negro, Brazilian Amazon.

  • Plants and Gall Hosts of the Tirimbina Biological Reserve

Nonetheless, very few inventories have been carried out in areas where the flora is well documented, and records of galls from herbaria and sites outside the study area have seldom been utilized. In this study we provide a checklist of the native vascular plants of a 345 ha forest reserve in the Caribbean lowlands of Costa Rica and document which of these plants were found to harbor galls. The gall surveys were carried out between November 2013 and December 2016. We also cross-checked our plant list with the previous gall records from elsewhere in the country and searched for galls on herbarium specimens of dicots reported from the reserve. In total, we recorded 143 families and 1174 plant species, of which 401 were hosts of galls. Plant hosts of galls were found in the following non-mutually exclusive categories: 209 in our field sampling, 257 from previous records, and 158 in herbarium specimens.

The following triterpenes were isolated from the dichloromethane extract of leaves: lupen-3-one (1), taraxer-3-one (2) and oleanolic acid (3). The dichloromethane extract of branches yielded the triterpene 3β-methoxy-lup-20(29)-ene (4). The chemical structures were characterized by NMR data. Plant extracts, substance 3, squalene (5) and taraxerol (6), (5 and 6 previously isolated), were evaluated by in vitro assay against chloroquine resistant Plasmodium falciparum. The dichloromethane extract of leaves and the three triterpenes assayed have shown partial activity. Thus, these results demonstrated that new potential antimalarial natural products can be found even

  • Biogeography and Ecology in a Pantropical Family, the Meliaceae
    Gardens’ Bulletin Singapore 71(Suppl. 2):335-461. 2019 335 doi: 10.26492/gbs71(suppl. 2).2019-22 Biogeography and ecology in a pantropical family, the Meliaceae M. Heads Buffalo Museum of Science, 1020 Humboldt Parkway, Buffalo, NY 14211-1293, USA. [email protected] ABSTRACT. This paper reviews the biogeography and ecology of the family Meliaceae and maps many of the clades. Recently published molecular phylogenies are used as a framework to interpret distributional and ecological data. The sections on distribution concentrate on allopatry, on areas of overlap among clades, and on centres of diversity. The sections on ecology focus on populations of the family that are not in typical, dry-ground, lowland rain forest, for example, in and around mangrove forest, in peat swamp and other kinds of freshwater swamp forest, on limestone, and in open vegetation such as savanna woodland. Information on the altitudinal range of the genera is presented, and brief notes on architecture are also given. The paper considers the relationship between the distribution and ecology of the taxa, and the interpretation of the fossil record of the family, along with its significance for biogeographic studies. Finally, the paper discusses whether the evolution of Meliaceae can be attributed to ‘radiations’ from restricted centres of origin into new morphological, geographical and ecological space, or whether it is better explained by phases of vicariance in widespread ancestors, alternating with phases of range expansion. Keywords. Altitude, limestone, mangrove, rain forest, savanna, swamp forest, tropics, vicariance Introduction The family Meliaceae is well known for its high-quality timbers, especially mahogany (Swietenia Jacq.).
