  • Evaluación Del Estado De Conservación Del Peyote Queretano Lophophora Diffusa Croizat (Bravo), Cactácea Endémica Del Desierto Querétaro-Hidalguense, México
    68 Cact Suc Mex (2012) 57(3):68-85 Evaluación del estado de conservación del peyote queretano Lophophora diffusa Croizat (Bravo), cactácea endémica del desierto Querétaro-Hidalguense, México Díaz-Segura Omar1*, Jiménez-Sierra Cecilia Leonor1*, Matías-Palafox María Loraine1 & Vázquez-Díaz Erasmo1 Resumen El “peyote queretano”, Lophophora diffusa, es una cactácea endémica de la región semiárida Querétaro-Hidalguense. Las poblaciones de esta especie son mermadas por el saqueo directo de individuos debido a sus supuestas propiedades químicas y curativas. Además, los sitios en donde habita están sujetos a transformaciones constantes por cambios de uso del suelo. La especie es señalada como amenazada (A) en la NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010, como vulnerable (Vu) en la Lista Roja de la UICN y está incluida en el Apéndice ll de CITES. Sin embargo, la asignación de estas categorías ha sido un tanto subjetiva debido a la carencia de información sobre muchos aspectos de la biología de la especie. En este trabajo se aplicó el Método de Evaluación del Riesgo de Extinción de las Especies Silvestres en México (MER) (Anexo I de la NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010) con el fin de justificar la re-categorización deL. diffusa como especie en peligro de extinción (P). Palabras clave: Conservación, disturbio, especie en peligro, MER, Peyote. Abstract The “peyote queretano” Lophophora diffusa, is an endemic cactus from the semiarid region Queretaro-Hidalguense. Their populations have decreased by direct plunder of individuals due to their supposed healing and chemical properties. In addition, sites are subject to constant changes in land use. The species is designated as threatened (A) in the NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010, as Vulnerable (VU) in the IUCN Red List and is listed in Appendix II of CITES.

  • Dawson-The Peyote Effect.Indd
    chapter one 1887 Dr. John Briggs Eats Some Peyote It seemed to me my heart was simply running away with itself, and it was with considerable diffi culty I could breathe air enough to keep me alive. I felt intoxicated, and for a short time particularly lost consciousness. —John Briggs, May 1887 Peyote was well known in Ignacio Sendejas’s world, used within a vari- ety of Indian communities from west-central Mexico into what is today the southwestern United States as a sacrament, and used by curers and botanists in the borderlands for any variety of ailments. Outside of the borderlands, however, Euro-Americans had scant knowledge of the cac- tus. The doctors and scientists in Mexico City who were then endeavor- ing to create a modern state had little interest in things tainted by indi- geneity, and most could not have identifi ed peyote or discussed its properties in any detail. Beyond Mexico the classifi catory challenges were even greater, in part because the name peyote had long been asso- ciated with at least three diff erent plants. Early in the colonial period, Bernardino de Sahagún classifi ed two plants as peyote, one identifi ed with Xochimilco and the other with Zacatecas. Decades later Francisco Hernández coined the scientifi c term peyotl zacatensis to describe the cactus that we know today as peyote. Later still, when nineteenth-cen- tury North American and European botanists began to classify the myr- iad cacti found in Mexico, they identifi ed no less than four species of cactus that went by the name peyote.

It listed the ‘majority of the newnames [of succulent plants] published the previous year’. The first issue, edited by Roan himself with the help of A. J. A Uitewaal (1899 −1963), was published for IOS by the National Cactus & Succulent Society,and the next four (with Gordon RowleyasAssociate and later Joint Editor) by Roan’snewly formed British Section of the IOS. For issues 5 − 12, Gordon Rowleybecame the sole editor.Issue 6 was published by IOS with assistance by the Acclimatisation Garden Pinya de Rosa, Costa Brava,Spain, owned by Fernando Riviere de Caralt (1904 −1992), another founder member of IOS. In 1957, an arrangement for closer cooperation with the International Association of Plant Taxonomy (IAPT) was reached, and RPS issues 7−22 were published in their Regnum Ve getabile series with the financial support of the International Union of Biological Sciences (IUBS), of which IOS remains a member to this day.Issues 23−25 were published by AbbeyGarden Press of Pasadena, California, USA, after which IOS finally resumed full responsibility as publisher with issue 26 (for 1975).

Universidad de Sevilla. Sevilla, enero del 2018 2 Trabajo fin de grado RESUMEN Lophophora williamsii, el peyote es una cactácea endémica de las zonas desérticas del norte de México y sur de los Estados Unidos. Se trata de una planta bien conocida por sus propiedades enteógenas y empleo como planta medicinal. Contiene más de 55 alcaloides aislados hasta la fecha, siendo la mescalina el componente principal y responsable de las alucinaciones que provoca. A lo largo de la historia ha sido utilizada en ceremonias religiosas, para alcanzar experiencias místicas, y para curar enfermedades. Por estas razones ha sido considerada por algunas culturas como una planta divina. En la actualidad su uso es controvertido. En numerosos países su consumo está prohibido, al ser considerado una droga de abuso, en otros su empleo solo está permitido en ceremonias religiosas y ritos tradicionales. Asimismo, algunas de las moléculas que produce esta planta tienen interés desde el punto de vista farmacológico. Existe, además, un importante mercado negro ligado a las ventas de productos de plantas de esta especie a causa de sus propiedades alucinógenas y también terapéuticas. Como consecuencia de dicha demanda y de la excesiva recolección, esta especie está catalogada como especie en riesgo de extinción.
