We propose a method for seed shape quantification based on the comparison of the bi-dimensional images of the seeds with geometric figures. J index is the percent of similarity of a seed image with a figure taken as a model. Models in shape quantification include geometrical figures (circle, ellipse, oval ::: ) and their derivatives, as well as other figures obtained as geometric representations of algebraic equations. The analysis is based on three sources: Published work, images available on the Internet, and seeds collected or stored in our collections. Some of the models here described are applied for the first time in seed morphology, like the superellipses, a group of bidimensional figures that represent well seed shape in species of the Calamoideae and Phoenix canariensis Hort. ex Chabaud.

The UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC) is the specialist biodiversity assessment centre of the United Nations Environment Programme, the world’s foremost intergovernmental environmental organization. The Cent re has been in operation for over 30 years, combining scientific research with policy advice and the development of decision tools. We are able to provide objective, scientifically rigorous products and services to help decision - makers recognize the value of biodiversity and apply this knowledge to all that they do. To do this, we collate and verify data on biodiversity and ecosystem services that we analyze and interpret in comprehensive assessments, making the results available in appropriate forms for na tional and international level decision -makers and businesses. To ensure that our work is both sustainable and equitable we seek to build the capacity of partners where needed, so that they can provide the same services at national and regional scales.

Supporting statement 1. Taxonomy Class: Liliopsida Subclass: Arecidae Order: Arecales Family: Arecaceae (Palmae) Prop. 12.60 – p. 1 Subfamily: Ceroxyloideae Tribe: Ceroxyleae Genus, species, author and year: Ravenea rivularis Jum. and H. Perrier (1913) Scientific synonyms: Vernacular names: Gora (Sakalava), Bakaly, Vakaka (Bara) and Malio (near Manera) 2. Biological parameters 2.1 Distribution This species endemic to Madagascar is restrictively established in the central region of the southern part of the island, in particular along the Onilahy and Mangoky Rivers (Dransfield and Beentje, 1995). Its range is very limited. 2.2 Population 60 individuals distributed over 2 populations have been recorded (Dransfield and Beentje, 1995). They are located outside the Isalo National Park. This number, dating from 1995, has probably already diminished owing to the anthropogenic activities which threaten this region. 2.3 Habitat The species grows in humid zones, along waterways and in dry forests or in gallery forests within grassy savannahs, lying at an altitude of between 350 and 750 m. (Dransfield and Beentje, 1995). For several years, this region has been suffering rapid and irreversible degradation owing to unbridled prospecting for sapphires and the bush fires which race through the savannahs every year. 2.4 Conservation measures The species’ conservation status is Critically Endangered. 3. Protection situation 3.1 National Located outside protected areas. 3.2 International Not yet in CITES. Prop. 12.60 – p.

  • Phoenix Spp. and Other Ornamental Palms in Turkey: the Threat from Red Palm Weevil and Red Palm Scale Insects
    Emir. J. Food Agric. 2013. 25 (11): 843-853 doi: 10.9755/ejfa.v25i11.16500 http://www.ejfa.info/ REVIEW ARTICLE Phoenix spp. and other ornamental palms in Turkey: The threat from red palm weevil and red palm scale insects A. Hazir* and H. D. Buyukozturk Biological Control Research Station, Adana, Turkey Abstract Phoenix theophrasti is the only palm species native to Turkey and it exists in small numbers in only a few locations along the Mediterranean Coast. Other Phoenix species and other palms are mainly grown in Turkey for environmental and ornamental purposes in house gardens, public gardens, parks and as street plantings. The common usage of palms in landscaping highlights their economic importance for the country, especially in coastal tourism areas. Date palms grown in Turkey produce fruits which are small in size, of low nutritional value and with little sugar content due to insufficiently warm temperatures to ripen fruit. Adult date palm trees were imported into the country, mainly from Egypt, until 2005, when imports ceased to prevent further introduction of red palm weevil, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus, which has become a serious threat to Phoenix and other palms. The other major insect problem is red palm scale insect Phoenicococcus marlatti. Measures are being taken to control these two pests. The limiting of palm imports has stimulated seed propagation of palms within Turkey. Key words: Datça date palm, Phoenix dactylifera, Phoenix theophrasti, Rhynchophorus ferrugineus, Phoenicococcus marlatti Introduction country, and to outline the threats posed by the red Palms (Arecales: Arecaceae) are a plant group palm weevil and red palm scale insect and of 183 genera and over 2,300 species in tropical measures to control them.
