The reason behind this choice is that CDM methodologies are accepted as the highest standard of afforestation / reforestation projects. The use of the template and methodology does not mean that the project will be submitted as a CDM project. CDM methodologies are approved under the Voluntary Carbon Standard (VCS) and also meet the requirements of the Climate, Community and Biodiversity Project Standards (CCB). PROJECT DESIGN DOCUMENT FORM (CDM-SSC-AR-PDD) - Version 02 ____________________________________________________________________________________ CDM – Executive Board Page 3 SECTION A. General description of the proposed small-scale A/R CDM project activity: A.1. Title of the proposed small-scale A/R CDM project activity: >> Carbon Sequestration in Communities of Extreme Poverty in the Sierra Gorda of Mexico A.2. Description of the proposed small-scale A/R CDM project activity: >> In 1987, Grupo Ecológico Sierra Gorda (Grupo Ecológico) began reforesting degraded lands in the Sierra Gorda Queretana in eastern-central Mexico. Between 1997 and 2001, Grupo Ecológico planted 48.6 hectares, in parcels greater than 0.5 hectares, with the intention of using the revenues from the sale of the carbon sequestered to support landholders and the organization’s environmental activities. Following restructuring of Grupo Ecológico in 2001, Bosque Sustentable A.C. has continued as the partner organization of Grupo Ecológico focusing on reforestation and the sale of carbon credits. Since the restructuring, Bosque Sustentable has planted an additional 142.9 hectares through 2009 in parcels greater than 0.5 hectares, with the expressed goal of using the revenues from the sale of the carbon sequestered to support landholders and the organization’s activities in forest management and biodiversity protection. Bosque Sustentable has a target to plant an additional 40 hectares per year from 2010 to 2013 for this project activity. The purpose of the project is to reforest areas that require restoration while providing an alternative productive activity to hundreds of landowners and landholders in conditions of severe poverty while capturing carbon at the same time. The project is primarily designed to overcome the financial barrier to landholder participation. Bosque Sustentable provides the landholders with incentives to follow the forest management plan proposed by Bosque Sustentable. A.3. Project participants: >> Please list project participants and Party(ies) involved and provide contact information in Annex 1. Information shall be indicated using the following tabular format.

Gillette Museum of Arthropod Diversity, Department of Bioagricultural Sciences and Pest Management Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO 80523 Abstract A list of 1531 species ofLepidoptera is presented, collected over 15 years (1988 to 2002), in eleven southern West Virginia counties. A variety of collecting methods was used, including netting, light attracting, light trapping and pheromone trapping. The specimens were identified by the currently available pictorial sources and determination keys. Many were also sent to specialists for confirmation or identification. The majority of the data was from Kanawha County, reflecting the area of more intensive sampling effort by the senior author. This imbalance of data between Kanawha County and other counties should even out with further sampling of the area. Key Words: Appalachian Mountains,

News of foreign encroachment into the region prompted officials in New Spain to renew their efforts to explore and pacify the region.

Within the great diversity of pines in Mexico, Pinus culminicola Andresen et Beaman, P. jaliscana Perez de la Rosa, P. maximartinenzii Rzed., P. nelsonii Shaw, P. pinceana Gordon, and P. rzedowskii Madrigal et M. Caball. are six catalogued as threatened or endangered due to their restricted distribution and low population density. Therefore, they are of special interest for forest conservation purposes. In this paper, we aim to provide up-to-date information on the spatial distribution of these six pine species according to different historical registers coming from different herbaria distributed around the country by using spatial modeling. Therefore, we recovered historical observations of the natural distribution of each species and modelled suitable areas of distribution according to environmental requirements. Finally, we evaluated the distributions by contrasting changes of vegetation in the period 1991–2016.

Our results showed a continuous flight period for E. formosana - from the beginning of May to the first decade of October. Catches of R. resinella were recorded from the beginning of May to the second half of July. In addition to target species, we recorded 14 non-target tortricids during this study. The most abundant species among them was Cnephasia pasiuana, a known pest on poaceous crops in Bulgaria. We reported the attraction of males of this species to a mixture of E9-12Ac and Z9-12Ac in a ratio of 1: 1 (dos- age 300 µg).

  • Scientific Names of Pest Species in Tortricidae (Lepidoptera)

The scientific names of several pest species in the moth meate the literature. For example, the subfamilial designation for family Tortricidae (Lepidoptera) frequently are cited erroneously in Olethreutinae (rather than Olethreutidae) was slow to be accepted contemporary entomological literature. Most misuse stems from the for many years following Obraztsov’s (1959) treatment of the group. fact that many proposed name changes appear in systematic treat- They even appear at both taxonomic levels (i.e., Olethreutinae and ments that are not seen by most members of the general entomologi- Olethreutidae) in different papers in the same issue of the Canadian cal community.
