  • English Cop18 Prop. XXX CONVENTION ON
    Original language: English CoP18 Prop. XXX CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA ____________________ Eighteenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties Colombo (Sri Lanka), 23 May – 3 June 2019 CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSALS FOR AMENDMENT OF APPENDICES I AND II A. Proposal: To include the species Parides burchellanus in Appendix I, in accordance with Article II, paragraph 1 of the Convention and satisfying Criteria A i,ii, v; B i,iii, iv and C ii of Resolution Conf. 9.24 (Rev. CoP17). B. Proponent Brazil C. Supporting statement: 1. Taxonomy 1.1 Class: Insecta 1.2 Order: Lepidoptera 1.3 Family: Papilionidae 1.4 Species: Parides burchellanus (Westwood, 1872) 1.5 Synonymies: Papilio jaguarae Foetterle, 1902; Papilio numa Boisduval, 1836; Parides socama Schaus, 1902. 1.6 Common names: English: Swallowtail Portuguese:Borboleta-ribeirinha 2. Overview 1 The present proposal is based on the current knowledge about the species Parides burchellanus, well presented in Volume 7 of the Red Book of the Brazilian Fauna Threatened with Extinction1 and in present data on the supply of specimens for sale in the international market. The species has a restricted distribution2 with populations in the condition of decline as a consequence of anthropic actions in their habitat. It is categorized in Brazil as Critically Endangered (CR), according to criterion C2a(i) of the International Union for Conservation of Nature – IUCN. This criterion implies small and declining populations. In addition, these populations are also hundreds of kilometers apart from each other. The present proposal therefore seeks to reduce the pressure exerted by illegal trade on this species through its inclusion in Annex I to the Convention.

Historical Setting of the Guianan Plant Heritage The Guianas are embedded high in the green shoulder of northern South America, an area once known as the "Wild Coast". They are the only non-Latin American countries in South America, and are situated just north of the Equator in a configuration with the Amazon River of Brazil to the south and the Orinoco River of Venezuela to the west. The three Guianas comprise, from west to east, the countries of Guyana (area: 83,000 square miles; capital: Georgetown), Surinam (area: 63, 037 square miles; capital: Paramaribo) and French Guiana (area: 34, 740 square miles; capital: Cayenne). Perhaps the earliest physical contact between Europeans and the present-day Guianas occurred in 1500 when the Spanish navigator Vincente Yanez Pinzon, after discovering the Amazon River, sailed northwest and entered the Oyapock River, which is now the eastern boundary of French Guiana.

Austin Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum, 2021 North Kinney Road, Tucson, AZ 85743, USA Received 23 October 2007; received in revised form 28 January 2008; accepted 29 January 2008 Available online 12 February 2008 Abstract People in the Indian region often apply shankhapushpi and vishnukranti, two Sanskrit-based common names, to Evolvulus alsinoides. These are pre-European names that are applied to a medicinal American species transported into the area. The period of introduction is uncertain, but probably took place in the 1500s or 1600s. Examination of relationships of Evolvulus alsinoides, geographic distribution, its names in Asia, medical uses, and chemical and laboratory analysis indicates that the alien plant was adopted, given an ancient Indian name, and incorporated into some Old World pharmacopoeias. The herb apparently was included in medicines because it not only reminded people of certain aspects of their gods and goddesses, but also because the chemicals it contained were useful against some maladies.

  • Studies on Pollen Morphology of Ipomoea Species (Convolvulaceae)
    Research in Plant Biology, 1(5): 41-47, 2011 ISSN : 2231-5101 www.resplantbiol.com Regular Article Studies on pollen morphology of Ipomoea species (Convolvulaceae) Rajurkar A. V., Tidke J. A and G. V. Patil Laboratory of Reproductive Biology of Angiosperms, Department of Botany, Sant Gadge Baba Amravati University, Amravati 444602 (M.S.) India Corresponding author email: [email protected] , [email protected] Pollen morphology of four species of Ipomoea viz., Ipomoea fistulosa (Mart. ex Choisy ), I. palmata Forssk, I. quamoclit L. and I. triloba L. (Convolvulaceae) from Sant Gadge Baba Amravati University Campus have been examined by Light and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Pollen grains are usually pantoporate, radially symmetrical, circular in outline, tectum echinate, circular aperture between the spine, suboblate-oblate spheroidal or spheroidal. Among the four species of Ipomoea maximum pollen size (97.39-100.86µm) across was found in I. quamoclit whereas, minimum pollen size (59.17- 65.75 µm) across was noted in I. palmata. The maximum spine length (8-14µm) was recorded in I. palmata, while it was minimum (4.99-7.33µm) in I. triloba. Considering pore size all four species of Ipomoea showed close similarities with minor differences. Sculpturing pattern was found to be uniform in all studied species of Ipomoea. Key words: Pollen morphology, Ipomoea , LM, SEM. The Convolvulaceae (Morning Glory Sengupta (1966) investigated the Family) is a beautiful family which is pollen morphology of nine Indian species of widely cultivated as ornamentals. About 55 Ipomoea . Nayar (1990) studied seven genera genera and 1930 species of the of Ipomoea based on light microscopy study.

  • Evolutionary History of the Tip100 Transposon in the Genus Ipomoea

Abstract Tip100 is an Ac-like transposable element that belongs to the hAT superfamily. First discovered in Ipomoea purpurea (common morning glory), it was classified as an autonomous element capable of movement within the genome. As Tip100 data were already available in databases, the sequences of related elements in ten additional species of Ipomoea and five commercial varieties were isolated and analyzed. Evolutionary analysis based on sequence diver- sity in nuclear ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacers (ITS), was also applied to compare the evolution of these ele- ments with that of Tip100 in the Ipomoea genus. Tip100 sequences were found in I. purpurea, I. nil, I. indica and I. alba, all of which showed high levels of similarity. The results of phylogenetic analysis of transposon sequences were congruent with the phylogenetic topology obtained for ITS sequences, thereby demonstrating that Tip100 is re- stricted to a particular group of species within Ipomoea. We hypothesize that Tip100 was probably acquired from a common ancestor and has been transmitted vertically within this genus. Key words: hAT, transposable elements, Ac-Ds, Ipomoea, genome evolution, ITS.

  • Borboletas (Lepidoptera) Ameaçadas De Extinção Em Minas Gerais, Brasil 1
    BORBOLETAS (LEPIDOPTERA) AMEAÇADAS DE EXTINÇÃO EM MINAS GERAIS, BRASIL 1 Mirna M. Casagrande 2 Olaf H.H. Mielke 2 Keith S. Brown Jr. 3 ABSTRACT. BUTTERFLlES (LEPIDOPTERA) CONS IDERED AS THR EATENED lN MINAS GERAI S, BRA ZIL. The twenty species ofbutterflies (diurnal Lepidoptera) considered as threatened in the Minas Gerais (by statute) are described and di scussed in relation to di stribution, appearance and known records. KEY WORDS. Lepidoptera, butterflies threatened, Brazil o presente trabalho visa ilustrar as espécies incluídas na "Lista de espécies ameaçadas de extinção do Estado de Minas Gerais" publicada pela COPAM (Conselho Estadual de Política Ambiental) (MINAS GERAIS 1996). Detalhes com informações ecológicas serão incluídos no "Livro vermelho das espécies ameaçadas do estado de Minas Gerais" a ser editado pela Fundação Biodiversitas. As borboletas pertencem à ordem Lepidoptera que compreende aproxima­ damente 150.000 espécies conhecidas, das quais 19.000 são borboletas (HEPPNER 1991), sendo que no Brasil devem ocorrer ao todo 40.000 espécies, das quais 3.300 espécies de borboletas (BROWN I 996a,b). As borboletas são quase todas diurnas, com algumas poucas exceções (Hesperiidae, Lycaenidae e Nymphalidae: Satyrinae) e se diferenciam das mariposas pelas antenas clavadas e nunca terem um frênulo no ângulo umeral da asa posterior acoplado ao retináculo na face ventral da asa anterior (uma só exceção na Austrália com frênulo - Euschemon rajjl.esia Macleay, 1827, Hesperiidae). As borboletas são mais bem conhecidas que as mariposas e é possível reconhecer algumas espécies como consideradas ameaçadas de extinção, na maioria dos casos por destruição do seu habitat típico pelo avanço dos sistemas antrópicos que já substituiram mais de 90% dos sistemas naturais e 95% da Floresta Atlântica no estado de Minas Gerais.
