Bird Responses to Shade Coffee Production
Animal Conservation (2004) 7, 169–179 C 2004 The Zoological Society of London. Printed in the United Kingdom DOI:10.1017/S1367943004001258 Bird responses to shade coffee production Cesar´ Tejeda-Cruz and William J. Sutherland Centre for Ecology, Evolution and Conservation, School of Biological Sciences, University of East Anglia, Norwich NR4 7TJ, UK (Received 2 June 2003; accepted 16 October 2003) Abstract It has been documented that certain types of shade coffee plantations have both biodiversity levels similar to natural forest and high concentrations of wintering migratory bird species. These findings have triggered a campaign to promote shade coffee as a means of protecting Neotropical migratory birds. Bird censuses conducted in the El Triunfo Biosphere reserve in southern Mexico have confirmed that shade coffee plantations may have bird diversity levels similar to, or higher than, natural forest. However, coffee and forest differed in species composition. Species with a high sensitivity to disturbance were significantly more diverse and abundant in primary ecosystems. Neotropical migratory birds, granivorous and omnivorous species were more abundant in disturbed habitats. Insectivorous bird species were less abundant only in shaded monoculture. Foraging generalists and species that prefer the upper foraging stratum were more abundant in disturbed habitats, while a decline in low and middle strata foragers was found there. Findings suggests that shade coffee may be beneficial for generalist species (including several migratory species), but poor for forest specialists. Although shade coffee plantations may play an important role in maintaining local biodiversity, and as buffer areas for forest patches, promotion of shade coffee may lead to the transformation of forest into shade coffee, with the consequent loss of forest species. -

M. 0012, Ayetoro, Ogun State, Nigeria College of Veterinary Medicine, Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria *Corresponding author’s E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The supplementing of Spondias mombin instead of concentrate mixture di- ets and its effect on feed intake body weight change and digestibility was investi- gated using sixteen West African Dwarf Sheep in a completely randomized de- sign experiment. The diets used were 100% concentrate (Diet 1; control), 75% concentrate plus 25% Spondias mombin (Diet 2), 50% concentrate plus 50% Spondias mombin (Diet 3) and 25% concentrate plus 75% Spondias mombin (Diet 4). Dry matter intake was significantly (P < 0.05) higher in sheep fed con- centrate diet plus Spondias mombin (Diets 2, 3 and 4) than those fed concentrate alone (Diet 1, control). The highest dry matter intake was exhibited by sheep fed 50% concentrate plus 50% Spondias mombin. Sheep fed concentrates plus Spondias mombin exhibited a superior daily weight gain to those fed concentrates only. Live weight gain was not significantly (P > 0.05) different between diets 3 and 4. However, a significant (P < 0.05) difference existed among diets 3 and 4, and the other two dietary treatments. -
Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti for Use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1
Woody and Herbaceous Plants Native to Haiti For use in Miami-Dade Landscapes1 Haiti occupies the western one third of the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic the remainder. Of all the islands within the Caribbean basin Hispaniola possesses the most varied flora after that of Cuba. The plants contained in this review have been recorded as native to Haiti, though some may now have been extirpated due in large part to severe deforestation. Less than 1.5% of the country’s original tree-cover remains. Haiti’s future is critically tied to re- forestation; loss of tree cover has been so profound that exotic fast growing trees, rather than native species, are being used to halt soil erosion and lessen the risk of mudslides. For more information concerning Haiti’s ecological plight consult references at the end of this document. For present purposes all of the trees listed below are native to Haiti, which is why non-natives such as mango (the most widely planted tree) and other important trees such as citrus, kassod tree (Senna siamea) and lead tree (Leucanea leucocephala) are not included. The latter two trees are among the fast growing species used for re-forestation. The Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History’s Flora of the West Indies was an invaluable tool in assessing the range of plants native to Haiti. Not surprisingly many of the listed trees and shrubs 1 John McLaughlin Ph.D. U.F./Miami-Dade County Extension Office, Homestead, FL 33030 Page | 1 are found in other parts of the Caribbean with some also native to South Florida. -

Spondias mombin is one of the medicinal plants used in African traditional medicine in the treatment of different infectious diseases in West African, Nigeria to be précised, ranging from eye infection, skin infection like ringworm, ezema and wound healing. Some school of thought in the scientific world discovered that Spondias mombin mat be used to cure infection related to male and female reproductive organ, infection like gonorrhea and syphilis. It has been profounded theory by some notable scientist, Spondias mombin may be used in the treatment of breast cancer, for this mentioned scientific facts aboutSpondias mombin, the medicinal plant efficacy, properties and therapeutic uses, should be evaluated.

Ramos2, & José M. Castillo2 1The Peregrine Fund, 566 West Flying Hawk Lane, Boise, Idaho 83709 USA. 2Tikal National Park, Petén, Guatemala C.A. Abstract. We studied Collared Forest-Falcons Micrastur semitorquatus in Tikal National Park, Guatemala from 1988 through 1993, documenting 9 nesting attempts. The Collared Forest-Falcon is a year-round resident, nesting in pre-existing cavities in large trees. Breeding commenced during the middle of the dry season. Egg laying occurred early March to early April, with laying peaking in early March and spanning 30 days (n = 8 clutches), with one exceptionally late laying date in May. The incubation period was 46–48 days at 1 nest and nestlings fledged on average at 50 days of age (n = 5). Only females incubated while males pro- vided food until the mid-nestling period when the females began hunting and delivering prey to the young. Young fledged in June, early in the rainy season and were not observed again at the cavity. Of 16 eggs laid in 8 nests (mean = 2.0), 10 of 16 (63%) hatched, and 8 (80%) of those hatchlings fledged. The only repro- ductive losses resulted from egg depredation (n = 2 nests). The breeding period of the Collared Forest- Falcon lasted approximately 28 weeks from courtship to fledgling dispersal, long in comparison to simi- larly-sized temperate raptors.
