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.

However, the pollen exine wall of Hymenocardia lacks the microchanneled tectum, granular interstitium, and thin foot-layer of the Urticales. Hymenocardia instead has many palynological features found in the Phyllanthoideae and should be retained in the Euphorbiaceae in that subfamily.

O estudo baseou-se na análise de coleções depositadas em herbários e observação de populações naturais no campo. Phyllanthaceae está representada por 14 espécies e quatro gêneros: Hieronyma (2), Margaritaria (1), Phyllanthus (10) e Savia (1). A ocorrência das espécies Hieronyma alchorneoides, H. oblonga e Margaritaria nobilis, assim como Phyllanthus acuminatus, P. carmenluciae, P. caroliniensis, P. heteradenius e P. stipulatus constituem novos registros para o estado. As espécies ocorrem preferencialmente em floresta ombrófila densa (mata úmida) e savana estépica (caatinga), havendo registros em Unidades de Conservação do Ceará. Palavras-chave: Caatinga, diversidade, Hieronyma, Malpighiales, Margaritaria, nordeste do Brasil, Phyllanthus, Savia. Abstract We present the floristic survey of Phyllanthaceae in the state of Ceará, as part of the project Flora of Ceará: knowledge towards conservation. The study was based on the analysis of collections deposited in herbarium collections and observation of natural populations in the field. Phyllanthaceae is represented by 14 species and four genera: Hieronyma (2), Margaritaria (1), Phyllanthus (10) and Savia (1). The ocurrence of Hieronyma alchorneoides, H. oblonga and Margaritaria nobilis, as well as Phyllanthus acuminatus, P. carmenluciae, P. caroliniensis, P. heteradenius and P. stipulatus are new records for the state.

Previous comparisons of field-based estimates of the above- ground biomass (AGB) of trees greater than 10 cm diameter within Amazonia have been limited by the paucity of data for western Amazon forests, and the use of site-specific methods to estimate biomass from inventory data.
