  • Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) 2020 Brazil
    Report Brazil Rome, 2020 FRA 2020 report, Brazil FAO has been monitoring the world's forests at 5 to 10 year intervals since 1946. The Global Forest Resources Assessments (FRA) are now produced every five years in an attempt to provide a consistent approach to describing the world's forests and how they are changing. The FRA is a country-driven process and the assessments are based on reports prepared by officially nominated National Correspondents. If a report is not available, the FRA Secretariat prepares a desk study using earlier reports, existing information and/or remote sensing based analysis. This document was generated automatically using the report made available as a contribution to the FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment 2020, and submitted to FAO as an official government document.

(Received 17th April 2012, accepted 23th June 2012) Abstract: Despite there being several studies focusing on feeding habits of Lontra longicaudis, few studies aimed to evaluate its prey selectivity and none of them considered prey mobility. In this study, we report both its feeding flexibility and specialist feeding behaviour between two parts of Mambucaba River, Southeastern Brazil. We observed that they fed mainly on fish, crabs and crayfish. We did not observe seasonality either in diet or prey community availability. However, using ANOVA, we found differences between stretches for diet composition and in the availability of prey. Monotonic Multi-Dimensional Scaling ordination showed that the otter diet in mangroves was dominated by Brachyura and the prey availability by Brachyura, Caridea, Ariidae, Mugilidae, Gerreidae, Centropomidae and Cichlidae, while the diet in the river stretch was dominated by Cichlidae, Caridea and Heptapteridae, and the prey availability by Characidae, Erythrinidae and Heptapteridae.

Accordingly, we recorded the diversity of thrips (Insecta: Thysanoptera) associated with a restinga fragment located on the campus of the State University of Ceará (UECE), Fortaleza, Ceará state, and computed the estimated richness and diversity indices. Samples were collected from 2011 through 2013 from flowers of 86 plant species. The material was taken to the Laboratory of Insect-Plant Interaction, where thrips were screened under stereomicroscope. We collected 456 adults and 58 immatures, representing 14 species, in addition to one unidentified species ofTreherniella . Microcephalothrips abdominalis was found on a large number of host plants, and Frankliniella insularis was the most common species.

  • Taxonomic Status of Scaled Ground Cuckoo Neomorphus Squamiger Todd, 1925
    Daniel Honorato Firme et al. 224 Bull. B.O.C. 2014 134(3) Taxonomic status of Scaled Ground Cuckoo Neomorphus squamiger Todd, 1925 by Daniel Honorato Firme, Claydson Pinto de Assis, Gary R. Graves & Marcos André Raposo Received 12 February 2014 Summary.—Scaled Ground Cuckoo Neomorphus squamiger Todd, 1925, is a rare and poorly known taxon from Pará and Amazonas, Brazil. Most taxonomic authorities have treated it as a subspecies of Rufous-vented Ground Cuckoo N. geofroyi owing to plumage similarities and distribution. The aim of this study was to review the taxonomic status of N. squamiger in the light of a new specimen from the east bank of the rio Xingu, representing a signifcant eastward range extension. Examination of the 17 known specimens of N. squamiger revealed that the diagnostic characters are relatively invariable across its restricted geographic range in the Madeira– Tapajós–Xingu–Tocantins interfuvia. The rio Xingu specimen exhibits no signs of intergradation with the nearest population of N. geofroyi, east of the rio Tocantins. The absence of intergradation and the previously reported diference in mitochondrial DNA between N. squamiger and N. geofroyi suggest that N. squamiger should be treated as a species. Neotropical ground cuckoos of the genus Neomorphus Gloger, 1827, are rare terrestrial birds that inhabit humid forests (to 1,000 m above sea level) from Nicaragua to south-east Brazil (Hafer 1977, Meyer de Schauensee 1982). The genus comprises four or fve species depending on taxonomy (Hafer 1977, Payne 1997, 2005, Dickinson 2003), difering in plumage patern and colour, and coloration of the bill and orbital skin.

  • O Parque Nacional Da Serra Da Bocaina
    ENCARTE 1 INFORMAÇÕES GERAIS DO PARQUE NACIONAL DA SERRA DA BOCAINA 1 INFORMAÇÕES GERAIS DA UNIDADE DE CONSERVAÇÃO O Parque Nacional da Serra da Bocaina (PNSB) representa um importante fragmento do Domínio da Mata Atlântica, agrupando ampla diversidade de tipos vegetacionais, grandes extensões contínuas de áreas florestadas, sob diversos domínios geomorfológicos. Abrange desde áreas costeiras até vertentes íngremes no alto do planalto dissecado da Bocaina, do nível do mar a 2.088 metros de altitude. É considerado um dos principais redutos de Floresta Atlântica, coberto pela Floresta Ombrófila Densa (Submontana, Montana e Alto Montana), Floresta Ombrófila Mista Alto Montana e Campos de Altitude, ainda em bom estado de conservação, apesar de inúmeros pontos de interferência humana. Deve-se destacar a alta diversidade e complexidade natural da área, resultantes das inúmeras combinações entre tipos de relevo, altitudes, características topográficas, rede de drenagem, substrato rochoso, solos e cobertura vegetal natural. É um território com endemismos, refúgios ecológicos e espécies ameaçadas de extinção. Sua localização geográfica está compreendida entre as coordenadas 22°40' e 23°20'S e 44° 24'e 44°54'W, na divisa entre os Estados do Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo, sendo circundado por importantes núcleos populacionais, como Angra dos Reis, Mambucaba, Paraty, Ubatuba, Cunha, Areias, São José do Barreiro e Bananal (Figura 1.1). Para estes centros a conservação do Parque é vital, uma vez que concentra grande parte das nascentes que fornecem ou podem fornecer água potável à população. Contém os cursos dos rios Mambucaba, Bracuí, Barra Grande, Perequê-Açu, Iriri, Promirim, Paraitinga, Paraibuna e cabeceiras do rio Paraíba do Sul, além das praias do Cachadaço, do Meio e Ilha da Trindade.

    Acta bot. bras. 23(3): 769-779. 2009. Conhecimento e uso de plantas em uma comunidade caiçara do litoral sul do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil1 Rodrigo Borges2,3 e Ariane Luna Peixoto2 Recebido em 10/06/2008. Aceito em 26/11/2008 RESUMO – (Conhecimento e uso de plantas em uma comunidade caiçara do litoral sul do Estado do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil). A Área de Proteção Ambiental de Cairuçu (APA) localiza-se no município de Paraty, RJ. É uma unidade de conservação de uso sustentável e dispõe-se a proteger o ambiente natural e as comunidades caiçaras da região. O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar um inventário etnobotânico das plantas conhecidas e utilizadas pela comunidade caiçara que habita a praia de Martim de Sá. Moram no local 30 pessoas das quais 10 foram entrevistadas. As informações etnobotânicas foram obtidas através da observação participante e entrevistas semi-estruturadas. O material botânico coletado foi depositado no Herbário do Instituto de Pesquisas Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro (RB). Foram identificadas 76 espécies pertencentes a 59 gêneros e 30 famílias botânicas consideradas úteis pelos caiçaras. As três espécies mais citadas foram: Sloanea obtusifolia (Sapopema), Scherolobium denudatum (Ingá-ferro) e Balizia pedicelaris (Timbuíba). Utilizou-se o Índice de Shannon (H’ = 1,81 – base 10) para a análise da diversidade de espécies. O registro sobre o uso dos recursos vegetais na comunidade estudada fornece informações que podem ser utilizadas para programas de conservação baseados no conhecimento local do ambiente. Palavras-chave: conhecimento Caiçara, conservação da natureza, etnobotânica, floresta Atlântica, plantas úteis ASTRACT – (Knowledge and use of plants in a Caiçara community located on the southern coast of Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil).
