Henkel Terry W. Henkel, Carol L. Kelloff, Sara N. Alexander, and Vicki A. Funk SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of “diffusing knowledge” was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the fol- lowing statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithso- nian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on the research and collections of its various museums and bureaus. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Manuscripts intended for publication in the Contributions Series undergo substantive peer review and eval- uation by SISP’s Editorial Board, as well as evaluation by SISP for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines (available on SISP’s “Author Resources” page at www.scholarlypress.si.edu).

Kelloff THE BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY OF THE GUIANA SHIELD PROGRAM The Biological Diversity of the Guiana Shield (BDG) is a field-oriented program of the Smithsonian Institution’s (SI) National Museum of Natural History (NMNH). For more than 30 years the goal of the BDG has been to study, document, and preserve the biological diversity of the Guiana Shield (the Shield), which includes Guyana; Suriname; French Guiana; the Venezuelan states of Amazonas, Bolívar, and Delta Amacuro; and parts of southern Colombia and far northern Brazil. Data gathering and analyses of diversity are focused on the natural units. The BDG program began in 1983 and spon- sored an active field program from 1985 to the final plant expedition in 2014. Originally confined to the plants of Guyana, it grew to cover all aspects of biodiversity across the Shield. The Shield (Figure 1) is a biologically diverse area defined by a distinct, ancient geological formation that is roughly bounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the north and east; the Orinoco River from the north and west; the Río Negro, a major tributary of the Amazon River, to the

(Orchidaceae Juss.) no Distrito Federal, Brasil1 Viviane Vaz de Queiroz2,4, Carolyn Elinore Barnes Proença2 e Luciano de Bem Bianchetti3 Recebido: 20.04.2015; aceito: 17.09.2015 ABSTRACT - (Subtribe Oncidiinae Benth. (Orchidaceae Juss.) in Distrito Federal, Brazil). Oncidiinae is the second largest subtribe of the orchids in the Americas. According to the Brazilian database Lista de Espécies da Flora do Brasil, the representativity of the subtribe in Distrito Federal is of 15 genera and 19 species. The objective of this study was to develop a taxonomic treatment of the subtribe for the Flora of Distrito Federal, Brazil. Field trips, consultations to the herbaria BHCB, CEN, HEPH, IBGE, and UB and morphological analysis of all the material were made. A new occurrence of species and genus, Trichopilia brasiliensis Cong., was registered to Distrito Federal After this study, the taxa list for Oncidiinae of Distrito Federal should be corrected to 15 genera and 18 species. Descriptions, identification keys, and illustrations for taxa were prepared. We concluded that some species of Oncidiinae occurring in Distrito Federal have wide distribution while others are locally rare and require intense effort of collection for registration. Keywords: Brasília, floristics, morphology, orchids, taxonomy RESUMO - (Subtribo Oncidiinae Benth. (Orchidaceae Juss.) no Distrito Federal, Brasil). Oncidiinae é a segunda maior subtribo de orquídeas das Américas. Segundo a Lista de Espécies da Flora do Brasil, a representatividade da subtribo no Distrito Federal é de 15 gêneros e 19 espécies.

Abstract The expansion of red palm mite (RPM), Raoiella indica (Acari: Tenuipalpidae) in Brazil could impact negatively the native plant species, especially of the family Arecaceae. To determine which species could be at risk, we investigated the development and reproductive potential of R. indica on 19 plant species including 13 native species to the Brazilian Amazon (12 Arecaceae and one Heliconiaceae), and six exotic species, four Arecaceae, a Musaceae and a Zingiberaceae.

E-mail: Abstract: The Rondônia Natural Resources Management Project (PLANAFLORO) was a strategic program developed in partnership between the Brazilian Government and The World Bank in 1992, with the purpose of stimulating the sustainable development and protection of the Amazon in the state of Rondônia. More than a decade after the PLANAFORO program concluded, the aim of the present work is to recover and share the information from the long-abandoned plant collections made during the project’s ecological-economic zoning phase. Most of the material analyzed was sterile, but the fertile voucher specimens recovered are listed here. The material examined represents 378 species in 234 genera and 76 families of angiosperms. Some 8 genera, 68 species, 3 subspecies and 1 variety are new records for Rondônia State. It is our intention that this information will stimulate future studies and contribute to a better understanding and more effective conservation of the plant diversity in the southwestern Amazon of Brazil. Introduction The PLANAFLORO Project funded botanical expeditions In early 1990, Brazilian Amazon was facing remarkably in different areas of the state to inventory arboreal plants high rates of forest conversion (Laurance et al.
