Floraguard: Tackling the Illegal Trade in Endangered Plants In
FloraGuard Tackling the illegal trade in endangered plants Foreword 1 Foreword The word poaching may not be readily associated with plants, yet illegal collection from the wild poses a direct threat to many of the world’s most iconic plant species such as orchids, cacti and cycads. In recent decades, the trade in illegal live specimens, along with other plant products, has spilled onto the internet, providing illegal traders with a means of reaching a global consumer base, while remaining cloaked in the anonymity and vast scale of cyberspace. Yet the adopting of online technology by wildlife traffickers also presents opportunities to map, understand and counteract this trade. The recent global report from the Intergovernmental Science- Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) identified that direct exploitation of organisms – in which illegal wildlife trade plays a central role – is one of the most impactful drivers of change in nature, second only to changes in land and sea use. Species exploitation is even more damaging to biodiversity than climate change. Safeguarding the natural world against this threat requires innovative approaches and effective collaborations. Led by the University of Southampton and partnered with UK Border Force and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, the FloraGuard study took a new approach to meeting this challenge. The study’s findings encompass insights into the criminological mindset of plant traffickers, the use of botanical expertise to identify suspicious online posts and the potential application of cutting-edge artificial intelligence techniques. This level of cross-disciplinarity illustrates the range of expertise involved in the project and the scope for further innovation that exists within the field of online trade enforcement. -

India *Corresponding Author E-mail: [email protected] Received: 12.09.2018 | Revised: 9.10.2018 | Accepted: 16.10.2018 ABSTRACT The reniformis nematodes of the genus Rotylenchulus (Haplolaimidae: Nematoda) are sedentary semi-endoparasites of numerous crops. There are ten species out of which R. reniformis and R. parvus are important, and three species (R. amanictus, R. clavicadatus, R. leptus) are monophagous: two on monocots and one on Rosids. In general, Rotylenchulus species are capable of feeding from very primitive Magnoliids to plants of advanced category. Preference was distinctly observed towards the plants in Rosids (42.779%) followed by monocots (23.949%) and Asterids (21.755%). The SAI values were also higher for these groups of plants. The study on lineages further revealed intimate affinity to febids (25.594%), followed by commelinids (18.647%), malvids (16.088%), lamiids (11.883%), and campanulids (9.141%). Poales contribution within commelinids was 65.353%. Maximum affinity of Rotylenchulus species was observed by their association with plants from families Poaceae (7), followed by Fabaceae (6), Malvaceae (6), Asteraceae (4), Oleaceae (4), Soanaceae (4) and so on.

The indexes for KK general articles, cactus and succulent of the month are updated on the website and include all of Volume 55. They can be found here: http://www.hcsstex.org/newsletters.html Membership Kathy Fewox At our 2018 Show & Sale, held September 8 and 9, HCSS added eleven new members. Please join me in welcoming Mike Bodkin, Walker Oliver, Christy Wild, Patricia Moreno, Madeline Droog, Art Leuterman, Portia Leyendecker, Karen Kain, Michael Stencel, Alicia Lau, and Peter Pham to our club. We also gained a returnee in Mary McConnell, who had accidentally let her membership lapse. Mary has been attending college, and night classes and homework made it impossible for her to attend HCSS meetings. She hopes a different schedule will allow her to join us more regularly. We had two door prizes at the Show & Sale. Patricia Moreno won a beautiful Echeveria, and Rafael Sepulveda was the happy winner of a Euphorbia milii. On September 26, twenty-four members attended the meeting. Among those was brand-new member Rafael Sepulveda, who joined at the meeting. Welcome to HCSS, Rafael! Also attending were guests Ken Warren, Michael Bryan (guest of Victoria Castillo), and Sue Ellen Richardson and her son (whose name I can’t read). Several wonderful door prizes were given away. Dave Thomas donated a Kalanchoe prolifera, which was won by July Olson. -
