Atlantic Forest Southeast Reserves WHC Nomination Documentation File Name: 893.pdf UNESCO Region: LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEANS __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Atlantic Forest Southeast Reserves DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 4th December 1999 STATE PARTY: BRAZIL CRITERIA: N(ii)(iii)(iv) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 23rd Session of the World Heritage Committee IUCN informed the Committee that the evaluation of this property has been undertaken based on the revised nomination submitted by the State Party in April 1999. The Atlantic Forest Southeast Reserves contain the best and largest remaining examples of Atlantic forest in the Southeast region of Brazil. The 25 protected areas that make up the site display the biological richness and evolutionary history of the few remaining areas of Atlantic forest of Southeast Brazil. The area is also exceptionally diverse with high numbers of rare and endemic species. With its "mountains to the sea" attitudinal gradient, its estuary, wild rivers, karst and numerous waterfalls, the site also has exceptional scenic values. The Committee decided to inscribe the site under natural criteria (ii), (iii) and (iv). It also recommended that the State Party should be encouraged to restore natural conditions in the Serra do Mar State Park, which potentially could be incorporated in the site. The Delegate of Morocco noted the values of the site but highlighted the challenges of the management of serial sites. The Delegate of Australia noted that management in serial sites is complex but can be done with careful strategic planning and an appropriate legal framework. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS The Atlantic Forest Southeast Reserves in the states of Parana and Sao Paolo, contain some of the best and largest examples of Atlantic forest in Brazil. The 25 protected areas that make up the site (some 470,000 ha in total) display the biological wealth and evolutionary history of the last remaining Atlantic Forests. From mountains covered by dense forests, down to wetlands, coastal islands with isolated mountains and dunes, the area comprises a rich natural environment of scenic beauty. 1.b State, Province or Region: Atlantic coast, states of Parana and Sao Paolo 1.d Exact location: 24° 10' S, 46° 50' W UNITED NATIONS EDUCATIONAL SCIENTIFIC AND CULTURAL ORGANIZATION CONVENTION CONCERNING THE PROTECTION OF THE WORLD CULTURAL AND NATURAL HERITAGE WORLD HERITAGE CENTRE “Parapiacaba”-Upper Ribeira Group of Protected Natural Areas and Notable Landscapes Nomination of Properties for Inclusion on the World Heritage List as a Natural Heritage Brazil JUNE 1998 i ABSTRAT FIGURE LIST.................................................................................................................................v CHART LIST.................................................................................................................................iv 1.

Its mission is the organic production of tropical plants for use in New Chapter’s products. A decade later, through the enthusiasm and commitment of three other individuals, Rafael Ocampo, Steven Farrell, and Thomas Newmark, along with the hard work of many local people, Semillas Sagradas—the Sacred Seed Sanc- tuary—was established on the grounds of Finca Luna Nueva. This sanctuary is now a place where a collec- tion of over 300 species of medicinal plants grows, is studied by researchers, and enjoyed by visitors. Semillas Sagradas, the first in a movement of many similar gardens to be established around the world, is devoted to preserving the diversity of local and regional medicinal plants, as well as the traditional wisdom and cultural knowledge of healing herbs.

  • Distribution of Birds Along an Elevational Gradient in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil: Implications for the Conservation of Endemic and Endangered Species
    Bird Conservation International (1999) 9:235-253. © BirdLife International 1999 Distribution of birds along an elevational gradient in the Atlantic forest of Brazil: implications for the conservation of endemic and endangered species JAQUELINE M. GOERCK Summary In this study I compare bird communities along an elevational gradient in an Atlantic forest remnant (Pico do Corcovado in Ubatuba) in coastal Sao Paulo state, Brazil. Forests at low elevations are structurally more complex and more diverse in plant species than those along the slopes and at higher elevations in this remnant. Consequently it is hypothesized that low elevation forests contain a greater diversity of bird species. Results from the study in the Corcovado area show clear differences in the distribution of forest birds along the elevational gradient from both qualitative and quantitative aspects. The structurally more complex forest at low elevations contains the most diverse avifauna, including several of the rarest and most threatened species. The importance of this remnant as a whole is apparent due to the high diversity observed (254 species), the high proportion of endemic species, and the extent to which the avifauna is endangered. Protection of forests at all elevations along the Serra do Mar is required to maintain diversity of bird species, particularly the many endemic and endangered species restricted to specific elevations. Resumo Comunidades de aves foram comparadas ao longo de um gradiente altitudinal em um remanescente florestal de Mata Atlantica (Pico do Corcovado em Ubatuba) na costa do estado de Sao Paulo. As florestas de baixada sao mais diversas e mais complexas estruturalmente do que as florestas de encosta ou de altitude e consequentemente espera-se que as florestas de baixada possuam uma maior diversidade de aves.

Aiming to characterize the structure of the arboreal community in a riverine forest remnant of the Taquari river, State of Rio Grande do Sul, 42 sampling units of 100 m2 (10 × 10 m) were located. Phytosociological parameters were also assessed and the indexes of Shannon diversity (H’) and Pielou evenness (J) were evaluated. A total of 39 species, 21 families, 2.83 nats ind-1 for H’ and 0.77 for J were recorded. Among the species found, the endemic Callisthene inundata O.L. Bueno, A.D. Nilson & R.G. Magalh. and Picrasma crenata (Vell.) Engl. are included in the list of endangered species. The density found was of 1,557.14 ind ha-1. Luehea divaricata Mart. and Lonchocarpus nitidus Benth. showed the highest indexes of importance values. Besides contributing to the knowledge of species distribution and community structure, this study points out the need for conservation of existing native forest remnants.

We distributed survey units (2,000 m² quadrats) along an altitudinal gradient and surveyed all individuals with DBH ≥ 10 cm, which composed the arboreal component. In smaller quadrats (250 m²), we surveyed regeneration individuals. The community at 800 and 900 m a.s.l. shows typical characteristics of Montane forest in an advanced successional stage, and the abundance of Ocotea catharinensis is its main indicator. At 1,000 and 1,100 m a.s.l., the forest is characterized as Montane with short stature in an advanced successional stage, with the occurrence of typical upper montane species such as O. porosa and O. vaccinioides.

Biota Neotrop. 12(4): http://www.biotaneotropica.org. br/v12n4/pt/abstract?inventory+bn02512042012 Abstract: The Atlantic Forest is one of the most studied Brazilian biomes in relation to its mammalian fauna. However, there is still a series of gaps of knowledge about the distribution and persistence of some of these species which prevents taking adequate conservation measures to better protect the mammals. In order to make the inventory of the non-volant mammalian fauna of the Carlos Botelho State Park (SP), we compiled data of camera trapping, diurnal census, track records, pitfall and live trapping collected over 8 years (2004-2012). We registered a total of 53 species, of which 12 are regionally threatened and one is an exotic species (Lepus europaeus), including the presence of most mammal species expected for the Paranapiacaba Forest Continuum. The high non-volant mammals species richness allied to the presence of threatened species, strengthen the role of this protected area for mammal conservation in the Atlantic Forest.

He estimated a total population of 2,791 – 3,226 muriquis, con- trasting with a population of about 400,000 he reckoned would have existed in 1500. Accepting the position that there are two species, Aguirre’s (1971) data suggested a maximum of 996 individuals for the northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxan- thus) and about 2,230 for the southern muriqui (B. arachnoides). Current population estimates for the northern muriqui have indicated at least 864 individuals in the wild. Data available for the southern muriqui, suggest a minimum population of about 1,300. Th ese numbers combined approximate to the total population of 2,230 estimated by Aguirre (1971). Further population surveys for muriquis in the states São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Bahia are urgently needed, along with comparative studies on their basic ecology, diet and behavior in the diff erent-sized forest fragments and the more extensive forests.
