Protection Strategy and Action Plan for Yunnan's Biodiversity Protection Strategy and Action Plan for Biodiversity Priority Area in Yunnan Wu Xuecan Senior Engineer and Vice President of Yunnan Institute of Environmental Science 28th July 2015 Tengchong Yunnan China Overall Situation of Biodiversity Conservation in Yunnan Report outline Identification of Biodiversity Priority Areas in Yunnan Protection Strategy and Action Plan for Biodiversity 1. Overall Situation of Biodiversity Conservation in Yunnan 1.1 Conservation of Yunnan’s biodiversity is attached importance by government at all levels and attracts high attention at home and abroad. The central government requires Yunnan to be the bellwether of ecological civilization construction. Green development is the only way for differentiation strategy of Yunnan, which has taken many importance measure in biodiversity. Yunnan's biodiversity conservation is of great significance of international conventions; many species, natural heritage sites, important ecotypes are highly concerned at home and board. 1. Overall Situation of Biodiversity Conservation in Yunnan 1.2 Yunnan’s biodiversity has characteristics of richness , uniqueness and vulnerability Both numbers of the higher plants and vertebrates species approach or exceed half of the whole nation Rare species resources and the species numbers of herbs, flowers, fungi rank first around the nation Yunnan’s ecosystem types are diverse and unique, forming a microcosm of the world's ecosystem types 1. Overall Situation of Biodiversity Conservation in Yunnan 1.2 Yunnan’s biodiversity has characteristics of richness , uniqueness and vulnerability One of the areas with the most widely distributed endemic genera; with a large number of relic species There are a large distribution of endemic species, and in which there are 4,008 endemic species and 4,509 narrow-area species of higher plants 1. Overall Situation of Biodiversity Conservation in Yunnan 1.2 Yunnan’s biodiversity has characteristics of richness , uniqueness and vulnerability With a great variety of wild species, while of small number and narrow distribution area, these species are vulnerable to be endangered or even extinct in the case of natural disasters or man-made destruction. Most species in Yunnan has a quite narrow range of distribution, 64.1% species distributed in only 1–5 counties and 46.0% endemic species distributed in only the range of one county. 1. Overall Situation of Biodiversity Conservation in Yunnan 1.3 Measures already taken and achievements Issue the “Protection Strategy and Action Plan for Yunnan‘s Biodiversity” Increase the construction of nature reserve-based protected areas Continuously implement "natural forest conservation", "grain for green" and other major ecological construction projects Perform rescuing conservation of a number of rare species, such as Asian elephants, rhinopithecus bieti, and minimum viable populations Introduce ecological compensation policies, and demonstrate the influence of biodiversity in major engineering construction activities 1. Overall Situation of Biodiversity Conservation in Yunnan 1.4 Remaining difficulties and challenges Urbanization and economic greening bring major opportunities to the conservation of biodiversity Historical debts and the uncertainty of the future challenge the conservation of biodiversity 1. Habitat destruction (loss, fragmentation and degradation) 2. Over-exploitation of biological The whole resources situation may improve, but 3. Artificial ecosystems in substitution some areas of natural ecosystems may turn for 4. Environmental pollution the worse 5. Invasion of exotic species 6. Climate change 2. Identification of Biodiversity Priority Areas 2.1 NBSAP Priority areas in Xishuangbanna: 17 counties and cities of Mengzi, Pingbian, Yuanyang, Honghe, Jinping, Lvchun, Hekou, Wenshan, Xichou, Malipo, Maguan, Simao, Mojiang, Jiangcheng, Jinghong, Menghai, Mengla ; Priority areas in mountain regions of southwestern Guangxi: Funing ; Priority area for biodiversity conservation in southern section region of Hengduan Mountains: Tengchong, Longyang District (Baoshan), Yunlong, Yulong, Gucheng District, Dali, Binchuan, Jianchuan, Heqing, Eryuan, Ninglang, Lushui, Fugong, Gongshan, Lanping, Shangri-La, Deqin, Weixi (18 counties); Priority area for biodiversity conservation in karst areas of western Guangxi and southern Guizhou: Shizong, Guangnan, Funing (3 counties). A total of 38 counties. 2. Identification of Biodiversity Priority Areas 2.1 NBSAP China is arranging and promoting the implementation of "Priority Area Conservation Planning” Including the refinement of borders; establishing regulatory policy measures, investigation, monitoring and evaluation, construction of conservation network, conservation and poverty reduction demonstration, industrial restructuring and layout, regulatory capacity building and so on. 2. Identification of Biodiversity Priority Areas 2.2 YBSAP YBSAP has identified 6 primary priority areas and 18 secondary priority areas: 16 prefectures and cities, 101 counties, cities and districts, with a total area of about 95,000 km2, covering 23.8% of the land area in Yunnan. (I) Alpine and valley coniferous forests in northwest Yunnan (II) Tropical rain forests in the south border region of Yunnan (III) Southeast monsoon broadleaved forest in Southeast Yunnan karst (IV) Humid evergreen broadleaved forest in Wumeng Mountain in northeast Yunnan (V) Humid evergreen broadleaved forest in Midstream Lancang River － Ailao Mountains Mid-mountain (VI) Wetland in Yunnan Plateau 3.

Introduction 1. According to the Feasibility Study Report and RF, the Project involves neither land acquisition nor house demolition, and involves temporary land occupation only. This report aims to strengthen the development of ethnic minorities in the project area, and includes mitigation and benefit enhancing measures, and funding sources. The project area involves a number of ethnic minorities, including Yi, Hani and Lisu. B. Socioeconomic profile of ethnic minorities 2. Poverty and income: The Project involves 16 cities/prefectures in Yunnan Province. In 2013, there were 6.61 million poor population in Yunnan Province, which accounting for 17.54% of total population. In 2013, the per capita net income of rural residents in Yunnan Province was 6,141 yuan. 3. Gender Heads of households are usually men, reflecting the superior status of men. Both men and women do farm work, where men usually do more physically demanding farm work, such as fertilization, cultivation, pesticide application, watering, harvesting and transport, while women usually do housework or less physically demanding farm work, such as washing clothes, cooking, taking care of old people and children, feeding livestock, and field management. In Lijiang and Dali, Bai and Naxi women also do physically demanding labor, which is related to ethnic customs. Means of production are usually purchased by men, while daily necessities usually by women.

In this study, two new natural hybrids, Pleione × baoshanensis and Pleione × maoershanensis, were described and illustrated. The parentage for these two hybrids was confirmed using molecular data from ITS of the nuclear ribosomal, trnT-trnL spacer and trnL-trnF region (trnL intron and trnL-trnF spacer) of the plastid DNA. Pleione × baoshanensis is intermediate between P. albiflora and P. yunnanensis, and characterized by its erose lamellae on the lip. Meanwhile, Pleione × maoershanensis is intermediate between P. hookeriana (P. chunii) and P. pleionoides, and characterized by its deep lacerate lamellae on the lip. For the individuals tested, molecular data suggest that P. albiflora is the maternal parent of Pleione × baoshanensis, and P. hookeriana (P.
