Cerrado Protected Areas: Chapada dos Veadeiros and Emas National Parks SITE INFORMATION Country: Brazil Inscribed in: 2001 Criteria: (ix) (x) Site description: The two sites included in the designation contain flora and fauna and key habitats that characterize the Cerrado – one of the world’s oldest and most diverse tropical ecosystems. For millennia, these sites have served as refuge for several species during periods of climate change and will be vital for maintaining the biodiversity of the Cerrado region during future climate fluctuations. © UNESCO IUCN World Heritage Outlook: https://worldheritageoutlook.iucn.org/ Cerrado Protected Areas: Chapada dos Veadeiros and Emas National Parks - 2017 Conservation Outlook Assessment (archived) SUMMARY 2017 Conservation Outlook Good with some concerns The current state of conservation of the site is relatively good. Existing threats to ecological processes, biodiversity, threatened species, and other species of particular conservation concern are minor, and management programs are relatively effective. However, conservation of the site was seriously impacted when 72% of the CdVNP was excised from the Park until June 2017. Efforts have been undertaken to restore protection regime for most parts of the site, adding otherwise new areas.

  • Conservation Versus Development at the Iguacu National Park, Brazil1
    CONSERVATION VERSUS DEVELOPMENT AT THE IGUACU NATIONAL PARK, BRAZIL1 Ramon Arigoni Ortiz a a Research Professor at BC3 – Basque Centre for Climate Change – Bilbao – Spain Alameda Urquijo, 4 Piso 4 – 48009 – [email protected] Abstract The Iguacu National Park is a conservation unit that protects the largest remnant area of the Atlantic Rainforest in Brazil. The Colono Road is 17.6 km long road crossing the Iguacu National Park that has been the motive of dispute between environmentalists, government bodies and NGOs defending the closure of the Colono Road; and organised civil institutions representing the population of the surrounding cities defending its opening. In October 2003, 300 people invaded the Park in an attempt to remove the vegetation and reopen the road, which was prevented by members of the Brazilian Army and Federal Police. Those who advocate the reopening of the Colono Road claim significant economic losses imposed on the surrounding cities. This paper investigates this claim and concludes that a possible reopening of the Colono Road cannot be justified from an economic perspective. Keywords: Iguacu Park; Brazil; Colono Road; economic development; environmental degradation; valuation; cost-benefit analysis 1 WWF-Brazil provided the financial support to this work, which I am grateful. However, WWF-Brazil is not responsible for the results and opinions in this study. I am also grateful to two anonymous referees for their constructive comments, corrections and suggestions.

    Informe Epidemiológico Superintendência de Vigilância em Saúde/SVS – AP - Nº 36/2017 – edição 33 Monitoramento dos casos de Dengue, Chikungunya e Zika vírus no estado do Amapá até a semana epidemiológica 44/2017(01/01 a 04/11/2017). 1. Dengue: No estado do Amapá, no ano 2016, foram notificados 3.516 casos de Dengue, com confirmação de 1.803 casos, destes, 19 casos foram registrados como dengue com sinais de alarme sendo 15 no município de Macapá, 3 em Oiapoque e 1 em Santana. Casos Graves houve 1 no município de Santana o qual evoluiu para óbito no mês de fevereiro. Neste ano até a semana epidemiológica 44/2017 já foram notificados 1.287 casos de dengue no Estado com 818 confirmados (tabela 1 e 2). Foram registrados nove casos de Dengue com Sinais de Alarme e um Caso Grave que evoluiu para óbito no mês de Março no município de Santana. Por determinação do Ministério da Saúde, todo caso suspeito de óbito por Dengue, Chikununya e Zika deverá ser investigado e informado em 24h e aplicado o Protocolo de Investigação de óbito por Arboviroses para encerramento do caso. Ressalta-se ainda que é um indicador importante que deverá ser cumprido dentro das metas do Programa de Qualificação de Atenção e Vigilância a Saúde.(PQA-VS). Até o momento, nos meses avaliados, houve redução de 62% nos casos suspeitos de dengue e 53% nos confirmados. Sabe-se que estes números deverão sofrer alterações, pois muitos casos ainda não foram digitados no Sistema de Informação, pela dificuldade no envio das fichas de investigação das Unidades Básicas de Saúde dos municípios à vigilância epidemiológica municipal onde são digitadas, aliada a subnotificação de casos e casos positivos no GAL (Gerenciador de Amostras Laboratoriais) e não inseridos no SINAN.

  • Crested Quetzal (Pharomachrus Antisianus) Preying on a Glassfrog (Anura, Centrolenidae) in Sierra De Perijá, Northwestern Venezuela
    Revista Brasileira de Ornitologia, 22(4), 419-421 SHORTCOMMUNICATION December 2014 Crested Quetzal (Pharomachrus antisianus) preying on a Glassfrog (Anura, Centrolenidae) in Sierra de Perijá, northwestern Venezuela Marcial Quiroga-Carmona1,3 and Adrián Naveda-Rodríguez2 1 Centro de Ecología, Instituto Venezolano de Investigaciones Científicas, Caracas 1020-A, Apartado 2032, Venezuela. 2 The Peregrine Fund, 5668 West Flying Hawk Lane, Boise, ID 83709, U.S.A. 3 Corresponding author: [email protected] Received on 17 September 2014. Accepted on 8 November 2014. ABSTRACT: We report the predation of a glassfrog (Hyalinobatrachium pallidum) by a Crested Quetzal (Pharomachrus antisianus). The record was made in a locality in the Sierra de Perijá, near to the northern part of the border between Colombia and Venezuela, and consisted in observinga male P. antisianus vocalizing with a glassfrog in its bill. The vocalizations were answered by a female, which approached the male, took the frog with its bill and carried it into a cavity built on a landslide. Subsequent to this, the male remained near to the cavity until the female left it and together they abandoned this place. Based on the behavior observed in the couple of quetzals, and what has previously been described that this group of birds gives their young a diet rich in animal protein comprised of arthropods and small vertebrates, we believe that the couple was raising a brood at the time when the observation was carried out. KEYWORDS: Anurophagy, diet, Hyalinobatrachium, Trogonidae, Trogoniformes. The consumption of animal protein is a behavior a behavior also reported for P. pavoninus (Lebbin 2007) exhibited by most of the species of the family Trogonidae.

  • About the Book the Format Acknowledgments
    About the Book For more than ten years I have been working on a book on bryophyte ecology and was joined by Heinjo During, who has been very helpful in critiquing multiple versions of the chapters. But as the book progressed, the field of bryophyte ecology progressed faster. No chapter ever seemed to stay finished, hence the decision to publish online. Furthermore, rather than being a textbook, it is evolving into an encyclopedia that would be at least three volumes. Having reached the age when I could retire whenever I wanted to, I no longer needed be so concerned with the publish or perish paradigm. In keeping with the sharing nature of bryologists, and the need to educate the non-bryologists about the nature and role of bryophytes in the ecosystem, it seemed my personal goals could best be accomplished by publishing online. This has several advantages for me. I can choose the format I want, I can include lots of color images, and I can post chapters or parts of chapters as I complete them and update later if I find it important. Throughout the book I have posed questions. I have even attempt to offer hypotheses for many of these. It is my hope that these questions and hypotheses will inspire students of all ages to attempt to answer these. Some are simple and could even be done by elementary school children. Others are suitable for undergraduate projects. And some will take lifelong work or a large team of researchers around the world. Have fun with them! The Format The decision to publish Bryophyte Ecology as an ebook occurred after I had a publisher, and I am sure I have not thought of all the complexities of publishing as I complete things, rather than in the order of the planned organization.
