E-mail: Abstract: The Rondônia Natural Resources Management Project (PLANAFLORO) was a strategic program developed in partnership between the Brazilian Government and The World Bank in 1992, with the purpose of stimulating the sustainable development and protection of the Amazon in the state of Rondônia. More than a decade after the PLANAFORO program concluded, the aim of the present work is to recover and share the information from the long-abandoned plant collections made during the project’s ecological-economic zoning phase. Most of the material analyzed was sterile, but the fertile voucher specimens recovered are listed here. The material examined represents 378 species in 234 genera and 76 families of angiosperms. Some 8 genera, 68 species, 3 subspecies and 1 variety are new records for Rondônia State. It is our intention that this information will stimulate future studies and contribute to a better understanding and more effective conservation of the plant diversity in the southwestern Amazon of Brazil. Introduction The PLANAFLORO Project funded botanical expeditions In early 1990, Brazilian Amazon was facing remarkably in different areas of the state to inventory arboreal plants high rates of forest conversion (Laurance et al. -

An Overview of Recent Taxonomic Studies on Euphorbiaceae Sl in Brazil
Rodriguésia 63(1): 227-242. 2012 http://rodriguesia.jbrj.gov.br An overview of recent taxonomic studies on Euphorbiaceae s.l. in Brazil Panorama dos recentes estudos taxonômicos em Euphorbiaceae s.l. no Brasil Ricardo de S. Secco1, Inês Cordeiro2, Luci de Senna-Vale3, Margareth F. de Sales4, Letícia Ribes de Lima5, Débora Medeiros3, Bárbara de Sá Haiad3, Arline Souza de Oliveira3, Maria Beatriz Rossi Caruzo2, Daniela Carneiro-Torres6 & Narcisio C. Bigio7 Abstract The Euphorbiaceae sensu lato are distributed mainly in the tropics, in various types of vegetation and habitats, being one of the largest, most complex and diverse families of angiosperms. It has recently been divided into four families, according to classification systems based on molecular phylogeny: Euphorbiaceae sensu stricto, Phyllan- thaceae, Putranjivaceae, and Picrodendraceae. There is a proposition to establish Peraceae still under discussion. There were also changes in the taxonomic position of genera widely distributed in the Brazilian territory, such as Amanoa, Drypetes, Pera, Phyllanthus, Podocalyx, Pogonophora, and Richeria, among others. In addition, new species have been proposed and the limits of taxa distribution are expanding in Brazil. Thus, the authors provide an overview of recent studies and advances in the taxonomy of Euphorbiaceae s.l. in the Northern, Northeastern, Southeastern and Southern regions of Brazil, concentrating on review works and regional floras, as well as the changes that resulted in setting a new taxonomic family. Key words: Croton, Phyllanthus, taxonomy of Phanerogams, plant distribution. Resumo As Euphorbiaceae sensu lato distribuem-se especialmente nos trópicos, nos mais variados tipos de vegetação e habitats, sendo uma das maiores, mais complexas e diversificadas famílias das Angiospermas. -

Its classification was discussed during long time by many authors and with the phylogenetic analyses was proved its polyphyletic origin, bearing the dissolution in six distinct families: Phyllanthaceae, Picrodendraceae, Putranjivaceae, Pandaceae, Peraceae e Euphorbiaceae s.s. Considering the floral diversity of these families, fours species were selected to this study, aiming to sample the different groups: Phyllanthus urinaria (Phyllanthaceae), Piranhea trifoliata (Picrodendraceae), Alchornea sidifolia (Euphorbiaceae s.s.) and Microdesmis caseariifolia (Pandaceae). There are few detailed literature about the floral structure of the representants from the allied families of Euphorbiaceae s.l., which makes difficult the accurate usage of the floral characters in studies about systematics and evolution of these groups. -

Nomenclatural Patterns in Ka'apor Ethnobotany

EthnobioI. 9(1):1-24 Summer 1989 NOMENCLATURAL PATTERNS IN KA'APOR ETHNOBOTANY WILLIAM BALEE Departamento de Programas e Projetos Museu Paraense Emilio Goeldi 66040 Belem - Pam Brazil ABSTRACT.-A long history of horticulture appears to have affected plant nomen clature in Ka'apor and other Tupi·Guarani languages of lowland South America. The Ka'apor language displays patterns of and for the construction of primary productive and unproductive lexemes denoting plants. Such lexemes account for about one-third of all known folk generic plant names in Ka'apor. Five nomenclatural pillterns relating to these lexemes distinguish names for traditionally cultivated plants from names for traditionally non-cultivated plants. These patterns conform to an underlying principle: productive and unproductive primary lexemes in Ka'apor ethnobotany refer to tradi tionally non-cultivated plants. RESUMEN.-Una larga historia en horticultura parccc haber afeclado la nomenclatura de las plantas en lenguas de la familia Tupi-Guarani. habladas en las tierras bajas de Sudamerica; una de elias, la lengua Ka'apor. La lengua Ka'apor muestra patrones productivos e improductivos que son utilizados en la formaci6n de lexcmas que se refieren a plantas. Dichos lexemas aparecen en cerca de un tercio de todos los nombres genericos folkl6ricos de plantas. Cinco de los patrones en los que participan estos lcxemas, sirven para distinguir entre nombres de plantas Iradicionalmente cultivadas, de aquellos nombres que se r...miten a plantas no cultivadas.

All trees with DBH ≥ 5 cm (alive and dead) were measured in 25 plots of 20 × 20 m. Out of the 1926 sampled trees, 1837 were living trees belonging to 116 species. The most important species (impor- tance value – IV) in the community were Euterpe edulis (22.9% - present in all plots) and Piptadenia gonoacantha (16.5%). Euterpe edulis is a typical palm tree of high importance value in mature forests, comprising 41.2% of individu- als. The results show a more mature tree community in relation to other sec- ondary forests with the same abandonment period in the region, with high richness and diversity of species, high basal area, and low dead tree density. In addition, several endangered species were recorded with high conservation value for the regional flora. The results also showed many typical characteris- tics of “novel ecosystems” discussed here in order to value these environ- ments, still neglected due to strong environmental human alterations.
