Vor einigen Jahren (Hu n t & Ta y l o r 1986, 1990) wurde diese Gattung jedoch in die Gattung Parodia Spegazzini überführt.

  • WILDLIFE TRADE in AMAZON COUNTRIES: an ANALYSIS of TRADE in CITES-LISTED SPECIES Note by the Executive Secretary 1
    CBD Distr. GENERAL CBD/SBSTTA/21/INF/8 17 November 2017 ENGLISH ONLY SUBSIDIARY BODY ON SCIENTIFIC, TECHNICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL ADVICE Twenty-first meeting Montreal, Canada, 11-14 December 2017 Item 4 of the provisional agenda* WILDLIFE TRADE IN AMAZON COUNTRIES: AN ANALYSIS OF TRADE IN CITES-LISTED SPECIES Note by the Executive Secretary 1. The Executive Secretary is circulating herewith, for the information of participants in the twenty-first meeting of the Subsidiary Body on Scientific, Technical and Technological Advice, a report presenting a comprehensive overview of international trade in wildlife species listed in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) in the Amazon countries: Bolivia; Brazil; Colombia; Ecuador; Guyana; Peru; Suriname; and Venezuela. The analysis provides a baseline of information on trade levels and trends in these countries for the 10-year period 2005-2014, in order to inform trade management in the region. It has been produced in close collaboration with national experts, presenting contextual information and insights into the management of wildlife trade in the region. 2. The report is relevant to the work of the Convention on Biological Diversity, in particular with regard to decision XIII/8, paragraph 5(d), in which the Conference of the Parties requests the Executive Secretary, in collaboration with other members of the Collaborative Partnership on Sustainable Wildlife Management, to continue to support efforts by Parties to combat illicit trafficking in wildlife, in line with United Nations General Assembly resolution 69/314 of 30 July 2015, and to enhance institutional capacities on wildlife conservation and law enforcement with relevant law enforcement bodies, such as the International Consortium on Combating Wildlife Crime.

Este ciclo foi um processo com dificuldades, com boas experiências de aprendizado e a oportunidade de conhecer pessoas incríveis. O meu mestrado não foi um caminho solo! Ele foi marcado por todos que me ajudaram ou me ensinaram, mesmo antes de eu fazer a prova de seleção até a defesa da minha dissertação. Conquistar meu título não seria possível sem essas pessoas. Apesar de minha gratidão ser extensiva á muitos, é necessário fazer um agradecimento especial a alguns nomes, pois há pessoas que estiveram mais presentes nessa vivência do que outras. Para começar eu agradeço imensamente aos meus pais Bernadete e Gleiser e ao meu irmão Glauber, pois grande parte do que sou hoje e a perseverança que tive para seguir nesse caminho é graças as relações existentes entre nós e ao forte apoio que tive de vocês e a paciência que tiveram comigo.

  • Cactus Seed Germination: a Review
    Journal of Arid Environments (2000) 44: 85±104 Article No. jare.1999.0582 Available online at http://www.idealibrary.com on Cactus seed germination: a review Mariana Rojas-AreH chiga* & Carlos VaH zquez-Yanes Instituto de Ecologn&a, UNAM, Apartado Postal 70-275, 04510 Me&xico, D.F., Me&xico ( Received 8 June 1998, accepted 10 August 1999) The present review tries to give a general overview of the available information on cactus seed germination. First, information about the family Cactaceae is discussed, concerning aspects such as distribution and general characteristics. Seed distinctive features are mentioned, such as colour, form, and size. Aspects of seed physiology, such as germination and dormancy, as well as seed dynam- ics including dispersal, predation, and soil seed bank formation, are included in the discussion. Techniques of propagation and some aspects of longevity and conservation are mentioned. The areas where there is scarce information available are highlighted, and, therefore, are important areas in which to continue research in order to generate data for immediate and future conserva- tion efforts. ( 2000 Academic Press Keywords: cactus seed; dormancy; germination; propagation; longevity; dissemination; conservation Introduction Arid and semi-arid regions cover about 30% of the world's continental surface (Meigs, 1953 in Kigel, 1995). The best-represented plant families in these regions are Asclepiadaceae, Aloaceae, Apiaceae, Asteraceae, Cactaceae, Chenopodiaceae, Euphor- biaceae, Fabaceae, Malvaceae, Poaceae and Zygophyllaceae (Kigel, 1995). Of these families, the Cactaceae are one of the most interesting due to their extensive set of peculiar adaptations to water scarcity, which allow them to be perennial and evergreen despite the sometimes extreme dry conditions of their environment.

In Brazil, Cactaceae is among the 10 most endangered families of national flora, making conservation measures essential for this family. In this paper, we document the species preserved in the ex situ collection at the Guimarães Duque Cactarium (CAGD) located in the National Institute of Semiarid, Paraíba state, Brazil. The collection consists of 158 species and 1013 specimens, including mostly Cactaceae and succulent representatives of eight other botanical families.

CLUB UPDATES & MEMBER PHOTOS FIND US ON-LINE AT: www.centralcoastcactus.org SEPTEMBER 2016 TOPIC OF THE MONTH: The Needs of Succulents Above & Below and In & Out of Containers While the basics apply to plants generally, Ernesto’s talk will emphasize our particular growing region. He will discuss the needs above ground as well as below ground, including topics such as the sunlight/temperature combination, the soil pH, as well as a comparison of requirements for potted and in-ground plants. Ernesto will also be bringing an assortment of rare and less common primarily succulent plants for sale. These plants will include the Socotran pachycauls Dendrosicyos socotrana, Dorstenia gigas as well as D. foetida ‘Taba Gorge’, an assortment of cold hardy Aloe species and some hybrids, Hoyas, and much more to benefit your collection and the UC Davis Botanical Conservatory as part of what Ernesto calls their “Green for Green program”! ABOUT Ernesto Sandoval For a long time, Ernesto Sandoval has been wondering and seeking answers to questions about why plants grow and look the way that they do. Now he explains and interprets the world of plants to a variety of ages and experiences from K-12 to professionals and Master Gardeners. He regularly lectures to a variety of western Garden Clubs throughout the year and particularly to Succulent Clubs throughout the State and elsewhere since that group of plants is his particular passion within his general passion for plants. He describes himself as a “Jose of All Plants, Master of None.” Ernesto thoroughly enjoys helping others, and gardeners in particular, to understand why and how plants do what they do.

  • High Proportion of Cactus Species Threatened with Extinction
    ORE Open Research Exeter TITLE High proportion of cactus species threatened with extinction AUTHORS Goettsch, B; Hilton-Taylor, C; Cruz-Pinon, G; et al. JOURNAL Nature Plants DEPOSITED IN ORE 01 September 2015 This version available at http://hdl.handle.net/10871/18155 COPYRIGHT AND REUSE Open Research Exeter makes this work available in accordance with publisher policies. A NOTE ON VERSIONS The version presented here may differ from the published version. If citing, you are advised to consult the published version for pagination, volume/issue and date of publication High proportion of cactus species threatened with extinction Supplementary Information Supplementary Methods References (26-37) Database IUCN’s online database, the Species Information Service (SIS), was used to capture the species information. This database was developed to capture and store the information necessary to carry out conservation assessments using the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria 2. It consists of text and numeric fields, and the different classification schemes (e.g. habitat types, threats, use and trade; 5) are integrated as selection boxes. This allows for post hoc analyses. Data compilation The first step in data compilation consisted of populating the SIS database with information available from the literature. The information was entered in the form of the species distributions, population trends, habitat preferences and ecology, conservation actions, use and trade. This task was carried out prior to the workshops (see below) to provide the experts with information they could build on to assess species. Occurrence point data Over 38,000 occurrence point data records were compiled from academic institutions and experts, in the form of geographic coordinates.
