[fieldguides.fieldmuseum.org] [1363] version 1 9/2021 Palm swamps are typical environment of the Cerrado domain. However, they also occur in ecological refugia, in isolated stretches of drainage headwaters in the Araripe sedimentar basin, in the South of Ceará state. These lie inside the drought polygon of the northeastern Brazil, where the xerophytic Caatinga vegetation predominates. These refugia betray a complex paleoclimatic and paleoecological evolution, being maintained by local particularities, and favored by the perennial water supply from seepage zones fed by the suspended aquifer of Araripe Plateau. This context allows the coexistence and coevolution of the palm swamp within an area of climatic semiaridity. This guide provides information regarding the recognition and identification of typical species of palm swamp, which were cataloged in a refugium area, locally called the Buriti Valley, in the township of Santana do Cariri, state of Ceará. 1 Mendoncia sp. 2 Ruellia inundata 3 Blepharodon pictum 4 Acrocomia intumescens 5 Attalea speciosa ACANTHACEAE ACANTHACEAE APOCYNACEAE ARECACEAE ARECACEAE Santana do Cariri, Ceará, Brazil 2 Plants of Palm Swamps in the South of Ceará Maria Daniely Freire Guerra1, Priscila Orlandini2, Rayane de Tasso Moreira Ribeiro3, Maria Iracema Bezerra de Loiola4 & Rubens Teixeira de Queiroz5 1Universidade Regional do Cariri, 2Universidade Estadual de Campinas, 3Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco, 4 5 Universidade Federal do Ceará & Universidade Federal da Paraíba Photos by R.T. de Queiroz, M.I.B.

  • Ethno-Medicinal Study of Plants Used for Treatment of Human And
    Tolossa et al. Journal of Ethnobiology and Ethnomedicine 2013, 9:32 http://www.ethnobiomed.com/content/9/1/32 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY AND ETHNOMEDICINE RESEARCH Open Access Ethno-medicinal study of plants used for treatment of human and livestock ailments by traditional healers in South Omo, Southern Ethiopia Ketema Tolossa1*, Etana Debela2, Spiridoula Athanasiadou3, Adugna Tolera4, Gebeyehu Ganga5 and Jos GM Houdijk3 Abstract Background: Plants have traditionally been used for treatment of human and livestock ailments in Ethiopia by different ethnic and social groups. However, this valuable source of knowledge is not adequately documented, which impedes their widespread use, evaluation and validation. Here, we recorded indigenous knowledge and standard practices for human and livestock disease control, of three ethnic groups (Aari, Maale and Bena-Tsemay) in South Omo Zone of Southern Nations, Nationalities and Peoples Regional State, Ethiopia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out using a semi-structured questionnaire to document knowledge of 50 traditional healers (40 male and 10 female) in medicinal plant use for treatment of human and livestock ailments. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze and summarize the ethno-botanical data. Results: Ninety-one plants, with claimed medicinal properties against a total of 34 human and livestock ailments, were reported and botanically identified as belonging to 57 genera and 33 plant families. Most of the plant species reported belonged to one of seven major families: Lamiaceae, Solanaceae, Menispermiaceae, Fabaceae, Asteraceae, Plumbaginaceae and Geraniaceae. Woody plants (shrubs 21% and trees 29%) were the major growth form used, whilst roots (40%) and leaves (35%) were the major plant parts used in the study areas.

Hence, elucidating region-specific patterns traditional knowledge of habitat resource use is crucial for assisting policy making with regard to nature conservation, human nutrition, and human health. Using original data from northeast Bahia, Brazil, we aim to document the collective knowledge of plant use possessed by artisanal fishermen and women in fishing communities, related to medicinal, construction, technology and ritualistic/religious uses. Methods: Data were collected through interviews with and opportunistic guided tours by local specialists to record the local knowledge of plant use and methods of use. Results: Through interviews, 116 species of plants from 104 genera and 47 botanical families were identified along with their local names, plant parts utilized, habitats, and preparation methods, and an additional 26 spp. for which only local names were available.

In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: “It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge.” This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on the research and collections of its various museums and bureaus. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institu- tions throughout the world. Manuscripts submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press from authors with direct affilia- tion with the various Smithsonian museums or bureaus and are subject to peer review and review for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines.
