UNDP Strategic Plan Secondary Outcome: National capacities to reduce conflict likelihoods and reduce natural risks, including those arising for climate change. Expected CP Outcome(s): By 2018, support has been provided to strengthening institutional and citizen capacities to promote the rights of nature, create conditions for a sustainable low-emission development, and improve the resilience and risk management facing the impacts of climate change and natural and man-made disasters (Those linked to the project and extracted from the country programme document) Expected CPAP Output (s) Strategies, plans and management and budget instruments are formulated and applied with a focus on prioritized identified groups and special emphasis on gender inequalities for: conservation and sustainable management of natural resources, ecosystem goods and services, climate change, resilience promotion, sustainable energy solutions promotion and the adequate management of chemical products and pollutants. Those that will result from the project and extracted from the CPAP) Executing Entity/Implementing Partner: Ministry of Environment (MAE); Brief description: The Government of Ecuador is requesting assistance from GEF and UNDP to remove barriers to securing the long-term conservation of the country’s biological diversity. The project goal is to safeguard globally significant biodiversity of Ecuador through building capacity on access to genetic resources and benefit sharing while improving the sustainability of the protected area system through strengthening of Decentralized Autonomous Government (GAD) reserves. The project objective is Ecuador implements integrated emergency actions to conserve the diversity of amphibians of Ecuador and use its genetic resources in a sustainable way. The three main outcomes of the project are: 1. Emergency actions to ensure the survival of highly endangered amphibian species of Ecuador for conservation and bioprospecting purposes; 2. Discovery of active compounds derived from the skin secretion of Ecuadorian amphibians with potential applications in biomedicine; 3. Institutional strengthening for the implementation of biodiversity conservation measures and sustainable use of its genetic resources in Ecuador, using amphibians as a pilot case study.

  • A Review of Chemical Defense in Poison Frogs (Dendrobatidae): Ecology, Pharmacokinetics, and Autoresistance
    Chapter 21 A Review of Chemical Defense in Poison Frogs (Dendrobatidae): Ecology, Pharmacokinetics, and Autoresistance Juan C. Santos , Rebecca D. Tarvin , and Lauren A. O’Connell 21.1 Introduction Chemical defense has evolved multiple times in nearly every major group of life, from snakes and insects to bacteria and plants (Mebs 2002 ). However, among land vertebrates, chemical defenses are restricted to a few monophyletic groups (i.e., clades). Most of these are amphibians and snakes, but a few rare origins (e.g., Pitohui birds) have stimulated research on acquired chemical defenses (Dumbacher et al. 1992 ). Selective pressures that lead to defense are usually associated with an organ- ism’s limited ability to escape predation or conspicuous behaviors and phenotypes that increase detectability by predators (e.g., diurnality or mating calls) (Speed and Ruxton 2005 ). Defended organisms frequently evolve warning signals to advertise their defense, a phenomenon known as aposematism (Mappes et al. 2005 ). Warning signals such as conspicuous coloration unambiguously inform predators that there will be a substantial cost if they proceed with attack or consumption of the defended prey (Mappes et al. 2005 ). However, aposematism is likely more complex than the simple pairing of signal and defense, encompassing a series of traits (i.e., the apose- matic syndrome) that alter morphology, physiology, and behavior (Mappes and J.

Two new species of Atelopus (harlequin frogs) are described from the Andes of northern Peru, one from the northern Cordillera de Huancabamba (Departamento de Piura), 2,950 m elevation, and the other from an inter-Andean valley of the upper Marañon basin, Cordillera Central (Departamento de La Libertad), 2,620 m elevation. We also suggest the possible link between infection by the chytrid fungus and mortality of harlequin frogs in the upper Marañon basin in 999. Key words. Bufonidae, Atelopus patazensis sp.

  • Solgold Joins Rinehart with Trouble in Ecuador
    rainforestactiongroup.org [email protected] SolGold joins Rinehart with trouble in Ecuador SolGold joins Gina Rinehart’s Hancock Prospecting as the latest Aussie company to face challenges on their Ecuadorian mining concessions. Illegal miners who were evicted from Rinehart’s concession at Buenos Aires in July, have been active on SolGold concessions in the Imbabura and Carchi provinces, while ongoing community resistance is thwarting SolGold’s plans to develop mining operations in the country. Despite PR announcements to the contrary, SolGold is facing a wave of resistance from locals who want the company and its subsidiaries out of their parishes. The biggest headache for SolGold in Ecuador centres around ambiguities over the legal status of many of its concessions (including at least half of its "priority projects") due to concerns over Indigenous land, Protected Forests and a constitutional requirement for consultation with local communities. Widespread resistance from local communities to industrial scale mining, and rampant illegal mining (often with ties to international criminal cartels), seem likely to further derail hopes the company has of launching a successful mining operation in the country. Community unrest The province of Loja has been a hotbed of unrest for years. A successful court case against Chinese mining company Junefield shut down operations at their Rio Blanco mine in August 2018. In latest news, residents of Gualel who are surrounded by three SolGold concessions (El Cisne 2A/2B/2C), plan to radicalise protests if mining concessions are not withdrawn. They propose to march with residents from the Azuay, Loja, El Oro and Zamora Chinchipe provinces, stating on 30 July Rainforest Action Group map showing SolGold concessions (yellow outlined in red), Protected Forests (purple) and Indigenous territory (green) with areas of that if they are not heard community unrest (yellow pins).
