  • Dalbergia Proposal Guatemala (Rev.2)
    CONVENTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN ENDANGERED SPECIES OF WILD FAUNA AND FLORA CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSALS FOR AMENDMENT OF APPENDICES I AND II A. Proposal Inclusion of the genus Dalbergia in CITES Appendix II with exception to the species included in Appendix I. The UNEP-WCMC assessed the Dalbergia species of Latin America and concluded: “… all populations of Dalbergia spp. from South and Central America appear to meet the criteria for listing in CITES Appendix II” (UNEP-WCMC, 2015). Including the whole genus in Appendix II will be essential for the control of international trade by eliminating the arduous task of enforcement and customs officers of differentiating between the hundreds of Dalbergia species listed and not listed in CITES. The inclusion will help ensure that legal trade does not become a direct cause of the extinction of these highly threatened species and will help curb illegal trade. Considering that CITES Appendix II must include all species, which although not necessarily now threatened with extinction may become so unless trade in specimens of such species is subject to strict regulation in order to avoid utilization incompatible with their survival, it is important to include the genus Dalbergia in CITES Appendix II. a) Resolution Conf. 9.24, Annex 2 a, Criterion A - ”It is known, or can be inferred or projected, that the regulation of trade in the species is necessary to avoid it becoming eligible for inclusion in Appendix I in the near future”. b) Resolution Conf. 9.24, Annex 2 a, Criterion B - ”It is known, or can be inferred or projected, that regulation of trade in the species is required to ensure that the harvest of specimens from the wild is not reducing the wild population to a level at which its survival might be threatened by continued harvesting or other influences”.

  • 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.

While a number of tree species had been brought under CITES regulation over the previous decades1, COP-17 saw a marked expansion of CITES timber species listings. The Parties at COP-17 listed the entire Dalbergia genus (some 250 species, including many of the most prized rosewoods), Pterocarpus erinaceous (kosso, a highly-exploited rosewood species from West Africa) and three Guibourtia species (bubinga, another African rosewood) to CITES Appendix II.2 The new listings entered into force on January 2, 2017.

Email: [email protected] Abstract Dalbergia melanoxylon is an economically and ecologically important timber yielding tree species. It is propagated through seeds, but is not successful because of poor seed germination that limits its multiplication. Therefore, the objective of this study was to develop efficient micropropagation protocol for this species. Cotyledonary nodes were used as explants. The highest (85.33%) explants initiated shoots on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 2.0 mg/l 6-benzyl amino purine (BAP) and 1.0 mg/l -Naphthaleneα acetic acid (NAA) of the culture revealed greatest shoot multiplication (6.12 ± 0.13) from nodal segments. The shoots rooted best (92%) on MS medium containing 1.0 mg/l NAA with 5.89 ± 0.47 roots per microshoot. Plantlets were planted in pots containing sterilized forest soil and sand mixture (1:1) and acclimatized in greenhouse. After four weeks of acclimatization in greenhouse, 84.6 % of plants survived. This protocol could be useful for large-scale multiplication and conservation of this ecologically and economically important multipurpose tree.

    International Journal of AgriScience Vol. 4(4):256-259, April 2014 www.inacj.com ISSN: 2228-6322© International Academic Journals Effective Cutting type in the Rooting of Dalbergia melanoxylon in Tanzania Washa B.* Washa Mkwawa University College of Education, P.O. Box. Private Bag Iringa Tanzania. *Author for corespondence (email: [email protected]). 0752 356 709 Received February 2014; accepted in revised form March 2014 ABSTRACT A study was conducted to assess the effective type of cutting in rooting of Dalbergia melanoxylon, a woody and non-domesticated species but of highly valued wood and wide spread in tropical Africa and overharvested. Softwood, semi-hardwood, hardwood and root cuttings were excised in wet season and dry season 2010. Soil rhizosphere of the sampled plants was used as potting media in a non-mist propagator in a split plot design. Rooting test was monitored for 3 months during the two seasons. Parameters recorded during the experiment included the proportion of cuttings that rooted, callused, sprouted and the number of roots per cutting. The data were analyzed according to objectives and variables of the study using SPSS software. Results from each experiment were analyzed separately using ANOVA in SPSS software, while differences between treatment means were compared using Duncan Multiple Range Test. Results indicated 100% rooting softwood cuttings, 37% in root cuttings and none of the semi-hardwood and hardwood cuttings rooted. Softwood cuttings of less than 15gms outperformed others in rooting of D. melanoxylon followed by root cuttings. Plant propagators are advised to use softwood cuttings. Keywords: Dalbergia melanoxylon, non-mist propagator, root cuttings, semi-hardwood, softwood INTRODUCTION species.

  • Traditional Use of Medicinal Plants in South-Central Zimbabwe: Review and Perspectives Alfred Maroyi
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Springer - Publisher Connector Maroyi Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine 2013, 9:31 http://www.ethnobiomed.com/content/9/1/31 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE REVIEW Open Access Traditional use of medicinal plants in south-central Zimbabwe: review and perspectives Alfred Maroyi Abstract Background: Traditional medicine has remained as the most affordable and easily accessible source of treatment in the primary healthcare system of resource poor communities in Zimbabwe. The local people have a long history of traditional plant usage for medicinal purposes. Despite the increasing acceptance of traditional medicine in Zimbabwe, this rich indigenous knowledge is not adequately documented. Documentation of plants used as traditional medicines is needed so that the knowledge can be preserved and the utilized plants conserved and used sustainably. The primary objective of this paper is to summarize information on traditional uses of medicinal plants in south-central Zimbabwe, identifying research gaps and suggesting perspectives for future research. Methods: This study is based on a review of the literature published in scientific journals, books, reports from national, regional and international organizations, theses, conference papers and other grey materials. Results: A total of 93 medicinal plant species representing 41 families and 77 genera are used in south-central Zimbabwe. These plant species are used to treat 18 diseases and disorder categories, with the highest number of species used for gastro-intestinal disorders, followed by sexually transmitted infections, cold, cough and sore throat and gynaecological problems. Shrubs and trees (38% each) were the primary sources of medicinal plants, followed by herbs (21%) and climbers (3%).

One hundred and eighty individuals were interviewed from the selected villages. Three villages were located in the depleted woodlands and the remaining three at abundant woodlands. Traditional governance structures within the selected villages and relevant conservation department officials were also interviewed. Colophospermum mopane is an essential source of fuelwood and provide poles used for construction of traditional structures. Each family uses 6.8 ± 0.1 kg of Colophospermum mopane fuelwood for cooking day-1 in the woodland depleted villages, while 8.2 ± 0.2 kg is used at the woodland abundant villages. Colophospermum mopane is preferred for construction of traditional structures because its wood is durable and is able to resists the effects of termites and wood borers. Key words: Colophospermum mopane, fuelwood, poles. Introduction Colophospermum mopane (Benth.) J. Léonard, commonly known as mopane, is one of the most important tree species in southern Africa.

  • The Recorder 4C
    STEVE TADD WOODWIND REPAIRS (.co.uk) 07734 543011 The woods used in Recorder making (Mar 2017) Although this article is aimed at Recorder players (because Recorders are made in more of a variety of woods than other Woodwind instruments) it may be of interest to players of other Woodwind instruments. The design of the bore; the design of the wind-way; and the location, size, and shape of the tone-holes, are the most important factors with regard to the tone of the instrument but the choice of wood does influence tone. This can be demonstrated by playing two instruments of the same design by the same manufacturer, but made of different woods e.g. comparing a Mollenhauer Denner descant in Boxwood (5122) with a Mollenhauer Denner descant in Rosewood (5120). The most important characteristic of the wood is how well it can be cut and shaped, and this is closely, but not entirely, related to its density – denser woods can be shaped with more accuracy and are generally more stable, and most importantly they have a smoother finish – this is of particular relevance to the bore of the instrument. Generally, woods that are softer and less dense have a rougher bore surface, which produces a warmer, more covered and diffuse tone, whereas harder and denser woods have a smoother, more highly polished bore surface and produce a brighter, clearer, and more centered tone quality with greater projection. Softer woods tend to be cheaper because they grow more quickly, but other factors, such as scarcity of the wood, also affect the price so it is not always the case that the harder the wood the more expensive it is (it is also not necessarily the case that the more expensive the instrument the better the instrument – whether a recorder makes a pleasant sound is a subjective decision).
