It serves to ensure co-ordination and smooth working of the Red List process, and in particular close and effective co-operation among the SSC, IUCN Global Species Programme and the Red List Partners. The responsibilities of the RLC are to: 1. Agree realistic priorities, within available resources, relating to expanding and maintaining The IUCN Red List, the biodiversity assessments and information systems that support it, and to elaborate these in the quadrennial The IUCN Red List Strategic Plan; 2. Keep The IUCN Red List Strategic Plan under review and adjust as needed; 3. Review annual progress reports received from Red List Partners and provide feedback on these reports; 4. Advise on, and assist with, fundraising in support of the agreed activities in The IUCN Red List Strategic Plan; 5. Review the need for appointment of Red List Authorities and vet the appointment of Red List Authority Coordinators; 6. Plan collaborative analytical work based on data in The IUCN Red List; 7. Set the standards of scientific quality for The IUCN Red List (the technical work underpinning this being carried out by RLC working groups and the SPSC); 8. Ensure adequate review and quality control of all synthetic products from the SSC relating to biodiversity assessments; 9. Maintain and promote adherence to “Rules of Procedure for IUCN Red List Assessments”; 10. Maintain the “Guidelines for Appropriate Uses of Red List Data” and provide appropriate advice, as needed, on the use of Red List data in decision-making; 11. Maintain and enforce the “IUCN Red List Terms and Conditions of Use” and adjudicate on controversial requests for permission to waive these terms; 12. Agree the fair, equitable and appropriate distribution of income arising from the licensing of data for commercial or other purposes; 13. Consider and establish mechanisms for incentivizing and mobilizing support and resources for Red Listing work through, inter alia: a. Recognizing and engaging with institutions currently meeting all the admission criteria for full Red List Partners, but unable to meet the financial commitment level for full partnership; and b. Recognizing and engaging with the user community for institutions not currently meeting all the admission criteria for full Red List Partners, nor the strategic commitment, but interested in making a substantial financial or in-kind contribution; and 14. Provide regular updates and reports to the SSC Chair and the SSC Steering Committee. The Red List Committee (RLC) is convened by and reports to the Chair of the IUCN Species Survival Commission (SSC), advised by the SSC Steering Committee. The Chair of the RLC is appointed by the Chair of the SSC. The RLC Chair is a member 17 of the SSC Steering Committee and will provide an annual report to the SSC Steering Committee on progress against the above terms of reference. Besides the RLC Chair, who will be independent and not vote, full membership of the RLC will consist of the following voting members: Up to five individuals representing the SSC (the “SSC members”), who shall be identified by the SSC Chair in consultation with the RLC Chair and the Chairs of the relevant SSC sub-committees; Up to five individuals representing the IUCN Secretariat (the “IUCN Secretariat members”); A single representative from each Founding Red List Partner (as defined in Art. I.D. of the Red List Partnership Agreement, provided they remain a signatory to this Agreement); and A single representative each from no more than two (2) new Red List Partner organizations, elected from among these Partners, with each serving for a two- year term. The Chair of the Standards and Petitions Sub-Committee (SPSC) and the Chairs of any RLC working groups that may be established by the RLC will be invited to sit on the RLC as non-voting members and to attend any meetings of the RLC. The RLC may also co-opt up to two individuals, not representing the interests of the Secretariat or the SSC or the Red List Partners, to sit on the RLC as non-voting members for a period agreed by the RLC. As appropriate, other observers may be invited by the Chair of the RLC to participate in relevant agenda items at meetings of the RLC. Decisions of the Red List Committee will ordinarily be taken by consensus. In exceptional cases where consensus cannot be reached, decisions will be by vote, where a simple majority of votes will be required in each and all of the following three categories: SSC members; IUCN Secretariat members; and Red List Partners. Any voting member can request that a decision on an issue be put to the vote. 18 Composition and Terms of Reference of the Red List Technical Working Group The IUCN SSC Red List Technical Working Group reports to the Red List Committee and is responsible for ensuring consistency and developing improvements in: (a) the application of the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria; (b) the documentation of Red List assessments, including through the design and coding of the IUCN Classification Schemes and creation of GIS data; (c) the design and implementation of Red List Indices; and (d) the use of the Species Information Service (SIS) to facilitate (a) to (c). In particular, the Red List Technical Working Group seeks to ensure that the SSC’s major global and regional biodiversity assessment projects are implemented in a consistent manner. To do this, the Red List Technical Working Group will: Monitor the implementation of all the major biodiversity assessment projects, and other assessment work carried out by Red List Authorities, Red List Partners and the IUCN Global Species Programme; Identify major areas of possible inconsistency in the data generated by the different assessment projects, evaluate the nature and extent of the problems, and propose solutions; Identify issues that need to be covered and clarified in the Guidelines for Using the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria (http://www.iucn.org/webfiles/doc/SSC/RedList/RedListGuidelines.pdf), and refer these issues and, wherever possible, real examples to the Standards and Petitions Sub- Committee; Provide comments and, wherever possible, examples to the Standards and Petitions Sub- Committee on the practical consequences of proposed revisions to Guidelines for Using the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria; Propose developments and improvements to the documentation of Red List assessments, and develop/improve associated guidance, definitions etc; Monitor and develop when appropriate the structure, content, guidance and implementation of the Classification Schemes; Oversee the continuing development of The IUCN Red List Index, and advise on its use; Monitor the development of SIS and its use, make proposals for changes and improvements as needed, and review all requests for changes and modifications to SIS; and Provide feedback and guidance on the presentation of The IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTM data on The IUCN Red List website. The Chair of the Red List Technical Working Group is appointed by the Chair of the Red List Committee, in consultation with the SSC Chair and serves as a full member of the Red List Committee. The membership of the Red List Technical Working Group is appointed by the Chair of the working group (guided by advice from the RLC) and shall comprise up to 16 individuals representing the SSC, IUCN Secretariat, and Red List Partners. The Red List Technical Working Group will meet as often as required, within available resources (ad hoc, specialized meetings may be held from time to tie to addressed particular issues). All formal decisions and recommendations of the Red List Technical Working Group will be referred to the Red List Committee for formal adoption. The Chair of the Red List Technical Working Group will provide an annual report to the Red List Committee on progress against the above terms of reference 19 Composition and Terms of Reference of the National Red List Working Group The National Red List Alliance Coordinating Body oversees and coordinates the activities of the National Red List Alliance.

Getting the right balance between the needs of our society for road-based transport, and the effects of the Assembly’s road network on our wildlife is a complex and often controversial issue. The Plan itself is designed to both challenge and inspire those who work with the Directorate on the National Assembly’s road network – and, as importantly, to challenge those of us who use the network to think more about the wildlife there.

  • Complete Index of Common Names: Supplement to Tropical Timbers of the World (AH 607)
    Complete Index of Common Names: Supplement to Tropical Timbers of the World (AH 607) by Nancy Ross Preface Since it was published in 1984, Tropical Timbers of the World has proven to be an extremely valuable reference to the properties and uses of tropical woods. It has been particularly valuable for the selection of species for specific products and as a reference for properties information that is important to effective pro- cessing and utilization of several hundred of the most commercially important tropical wood timbers. If a user of the book has only a common or trade name for a species and wishes to know its properties, the user must use the index of common names beginning on page 451. However, most tropical timbers have numerous common or trade names, depending upon the major region or local area of growth; furthermore, different species may be know by the same common name. Herein lies a minor weakness in Tropical Timbers of the World. The index generally contains only the one or two most frequently used common or trade names. If the common name known to the user is not one of those listed in the index, finding the species in the text is impossible other than by searching the book page by page. This process is too laborious to be practical because some species have 20 or more common names. This supplement provides a complete index of common or trade names. This index will prevent a user from erroneously concluding that the book does not contain a specific species because the common name known to the user does not happen to be in the existing index.

    Expl Agric. (2001), volume 37, pp. 279±296 Printed in Great Britain Copyright # 2001 Cambridge University Press REVIEW PAPER DIVERSIFICATION OF TREE CROPS: DOMESTICATION OF COMPANION CROPS FOR POVERTY REDUCTION AND ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES By R. R. B. LEAKEY{ and Z. TCHOUNDJEU{ {Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, Bush Estate, Penicuik, Midlothian, EH26 0QB, Scotland, UK and {International Centre for Research in Agroforestry, PO Box 2067, YaoundeÂ, Cameroon (Accepted 19 January 2001) SUMMARY New initiatives in agroforestry are seeking to integrate indigenous trees, whose products have traditionally been gathered from natural forests, into tropical farming systems such as cacao farms. This is being done to provide from farms, marketable timber and non-timber forest products that will enhance rural livelihoods by generating cash for resource-poor rural and peri-urban households. There are many potential candidate species for domestication that have commercial potential in local, regional or even international markets. Little or no formal research has been carried out on many of these hitherto wild species to assess potential for genetic improvement, reproductive biology or suitability for cultivation. With the participation of subsistence farmers a number of projects to bring candidate species into cultivation are in progress, however. This paper describes some tree domestication activities being carried out in southern Cameroon, especially with Irvingia gabonensis (bush mango; dika nut) and Dacryodes edulis (African plum; safoutier). As part of this, fruits and kernels from 300 D. edulis and 150 I. gabonensis trees in six villages of Cameroon and Nigeria have been quantitatively characterized for 11 traits to determine combinations de®ning multi-trait ideotypes for a genetic selection programme.
