    Assessing Bird Species Richness Within Shade-Grown Coffee Farms in Chiapas, Mexico / Project ID: 0251711

    Assessing Bird Species Richness within Shade-Grown Coffee Farms in Chiapas, Mexico / Project ID: 0251711 Daniel Camilo Thompson Poo, Daniela Valle León, Alberto Martínez Fernández and Jennifer Siobhan Lowry San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas, México. C.P. 29200 / [email protected] 10 July, 2012. Revised December 2014 Assessing Bird Species Richness within Shade-Grown Coffee Farms in Chiapas, Mexico / ID: 0251711 Overall Aim The goal of this project was to identify mechanisms and conservation strategies across agro-forestry systems in the El Triunfo Biosphere Reserve in Chiapas, Mexico. In particular we analyzed key biodiversity, economic, and social components that impact land-use change and ecosystem services in coffee production areas, focusing on how to improve sustainable production and conservation of nature. 2 Assessing Bird Species Richness within Shade-Grown Coffee Farms in Chiapas, Mexico / ID: 0251711 Section 1 Summary The agroforestry systems with coffee at the Sierra Madre of Chiapas, as a part of the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor region, are important for bird species. Agroforestry ecosystems also represent sustainable livelihoods for indigenous groups on the region. Sustainable coffee farming system represents a less human impact on the ecosystem. However, not all coffee producers on the region produce on the same way. Not all the inhabitants are aware of the importance of birds, as a part of the great natural capital of la Sierra Madre, but they either are prepared for the climate change risks and impacts. In this sense, this project seeks to understand, generate and communicate information useful for coffee farmers and their families. The goal is to understand social and economic factors to maintain and increase agroforestry systems with sustainable coffee.

Abstract The epiphytic fern genus Microgramma (Polypodiaceae) comprises 30 species occurring mainly in the Neotropics with one species in Africa, being an example of trans-Atlantic disjunction. Morphologically and ecologically, Microgramma presents a wide variation that is not seen in its closest related genera.

In a forest of the Atlantic slope of Panama was investigated. I recent review on the taxonomic occurrence of CAM, hypothesized that CAM is mostly found in orchids, of Winter and Smith (1996) pointed out that Orchidaceae which many species are relatively small and/or rare. Thus, present the greatest uncertainty concerning the number of the relative proportion of species with CAM should not be CAM plants. This family with >800 genera and at least a good indicator for the prevalence of this photosynthetic 20,000 species (Dressier 1981) is estimated to have 7,000, pathway in a community when expressed on an individual mostly epiphytic, CAM species (Winter and Smith 1996), or a biomass basis.

A number of studies, mostly using stable isotope judged from the C isotope ratios and the absence of Kranz techniques, documented a steady increase in the propor- anatomy, CAM was detected in 20 species (19.4% of the tion of CAM plants among local epiphyte floras from wet total), which were members of the families Orchidaceae, tropical rainforest and moist tropical forests to dry forests.

Schwartsburd1,2 Received: 10.11.2016; accepted: 11.04.2017 ABSTRACT - (Ferns of Viçosa, Minas Gerais State, Brazil: Polypodiaceae (Polypodiales, Filicopsida, Tracheophyta). As part of an ongoing project treating the ferns and lycophytes from the region of Viçosa, MG, Brazil, we here present the taxonomic treatment of Polypodiaceae. We performed field expeditions in remaining forest patches and disturbed sites from 2012 to 2016. We also revised the Polypodiaceae collection of VIC herbarium. In the region of Viçosa, 19 species of Polypodiaceae occur: Campyloneurum centrobrasilianum, C. decurrens, C. lapathifolium, C. phyllitidis, Cochlidium punctatum, Microgramma crispata, M. percussa, M. squamulosa, M. vacciniifolia, Niphidium crassifolium, Pecluma filicula, P. plumula, P. truncorum, Phlebodium areolatum, P. decumanum, Pleopeltis astrolepis, P. minima, Serpocaulon fraxinifolium, and S. menisciifolium. Among them, six are endemic to the Atlantic Forest. During our search in VIC, we found an isotype of Campyloneurum centrobrasilianum. We present keys, descriptions, illustrations, examined materials, and comments of all taxa.

Mónica Ponce1 & M. Amalia Scataglini1 Received: 20 July 2017 /Accepted: 22 April 2018 /Published online: 5 May 2018 # Gesellschaft für Biologische Systematik 2018 Abstract Cheilanthoid ferns (Cheilanthoideae sensu PPG 1 2016) constitute an important group within the Pteridaceae and are cosmopolitan in distribution. In South America, there are 155 species distributed in 13 genera, among which the largest are Adiantopsis (35), Cheilanthes (27), and Doryopteris (22). Most of the cheilanthoid species are morphologically adapted to grow in arid to semi-arid conditions and show convergent evolution, which has implied difficulties in defining the genera throughout their taxonomic history (Copeland 1947,Tryon&Tryon1973,Gastony&Rollo 1995, 1998,KirkpatrickSystematic Botany, 32:504–518, 2007, Rothfels et al. Taxon, 57: 712–724, 2008). Here, we sequenced two plastid markers (rbcL + trnL-F) of 33 South American cheilanthoid species, most of which have not been included in phylogenetic analyses previously. The South American species were analyzed together with South African and Australasian Cheilanthes and representatives of related cheilanthoid genera. The phylogenetic analysis showed that most Cheilanthes species are related to the genus Hemionitis, constituting different groups according to their distribu- tion; moreover, three species—C. hassleri, C. pantanalensis,andC. obducta—appear as the sister clade of Hemionitis. Cheilanthes micropteris, the type species, is strongly supported in a clade with Australasian Cheilanthes plus five South American Cheilanthes species, all of which show a reduction in the number of spores per sporangium; this feature would be a synapomorphy for core Cheilanthes s.s.

In a forest of the Atlantic slope of Panama was investigated. I recent review on the taxonomic occurrence of CAM, hypothesized that CAM is mostly found in orchids, of Winter and Smith (1996) pointed out that Orchidaceae which many species are relatively small and/or rare. Thus, present the greatest uncertainty concerning the number of the relative proportion of species with CAM should not be CAM plants. This family with >800 genera and at least a good indicator for the prevalence of this photosynthetic 20,000 species (Dressler 1981) is estimated to have 7,000, pathway in a community when expressed on an individual mostly epiphytic, CAM species (Winter and Smith 1996), or a biomass basis. In 0.4 ha of forest, 103 species of which alone would account for almost 50% of all CAM vascular epiphytes with 13,099 individuals were found. As plants. A number of studies, mostly using stable isotope judged from the C isotope ratios and the absence of Kranz techniques, documented a steady increase in the propor- anatomy, CAM was detected in 20 species (19.4% of the tion of CAM plants among local epiphyte floras from wet total), which were members of the families Orchidaceae, tropical rainforest and moist tropical forests to dry forests.

This weakens the ability of living systems to resist growing threats such as climate change, creating greater poverty through degradation of many ecosystems, both terrestrial and marine.
