  • Lyonia 7(1) 2004 - Conservation of Biological and Cultural Diversity in the Andes and the Amazon Basin - Flora and Vegetation
    Lyonia 7(1) 2004 - Conservation of Biological and Cultural Diversity in the Andes and the Amazon Basin - Flora and Vegetation Volume 7(1) December 2004 ISSN: 0888-9619 odd-right: 2 Introduction Scientists widely agree that species extinction has heavily accelerated in the last decades. The majority of the worlds species are found in tropical forests, covering a mere ten percent of the planets surface. A grave problem for the conservation of diversity is the still very fragmentary knowledge of the ecology of most species. The Andes and the Amazon Basin represent one of the most important Biodiversity-Hotspots on Earth. Attempts of sustainable management and conservation must integrate local communities and their traditional knowledge. Management decisions need to include the high importance of natural resources in providing building materials, food and medicines for rural as well as urbanized communities. The traditional use of forest resources, particularly of non-timber products like medicinal plants, has deep roots not only in indigenous communities, but is practiced in a wide section of society. The use of medicinal herbs is often an economically inevitable alternative to expensive western medicine. The base knowledge of this traditional use is passed from one generation to the next. Especially the medical use represents a highly dynamic, always evolving process, where new knowledge is constantly being obtained, and linked to traditional practices. An increased emphasis is being placed en possible economic benefits especially of the medicinal use of tropical forest products instead of pure timber harvesting, an approach particularly appealing to countries with difficult economic conditions. Most research efforts, due to lack of manpower, time end resources, focus only on either biodiversity assessments or ethnobotanical inventories, or try to implement management and use measures without having a sound scientific base to do so.

Gomes is a tree of the Atlantic Rainforest, endemic to the highlands of Rio de Janeiro state, occurring in riverine forest. The new species is distinguished in the genus by having a wine colored stem with metallic luster, peeling, with golden bands: it differs from other species of Kielmeyera section Callodendron by having leaves with sparse resinous corpuscles and flowers with ciliate margined sepals and petals. This paper provides a description of the species, illustrations and digital images; morphological and palynological features of Kielmeyera section Callodendron species are discussed and compared. Key words: Calophyllaceae, Kielmeyera aureovinosa, Atlantic Rainforest, riverine forest, Rio de Janeiro state. Resumo Kielmeyera aureovinosa M.Gomes é uma árvore da Mata Atlântica, endêmica da região serrana do estado do Rio de Janeiro, ocorrente em matas ciliares. A nova espécie é distinta das demais no gênero por ter caule de coloração vinoso-metálica, desfolhante, com faixas e nuances dourados; diferencia-se das demais espécies de Kielmeyera seção Callodendron por possuir folhas com corpúsculos resiníferos esparsos e flores com sépalas e pétalas de margens ciliadas. Este trabalho fornece descrição da espécie, estado de conservação, ilustrações esquemáticas e imagens digitais; características morfológicas e palinológicas das espécies de Kielmeyera seção Callodendron são discutidas e apresentadas em tabelas para comparação.

The genus has five species, four of which were previously regarded as belonging to Olyra L. Parodiolyra has a Neotropical distribution and only two species occur on forests in Eastern Brazil: P. micrantha (Kunth) Zuloaga & Davidse and P. ramosissima (Trin.) Soderstr. & Zuloaga, the first widely distributed in the Neotropics while the second is endemic to the state of Bahia. Leaf anatomy of the two species was analysed with the aid of an optical microscope. The objective was to describe the microscopic characters and evaluate if they can be useful for the taxonomy of the genus. The observed anatomical structures did not differ from other genera of herbaceous bamboos, however some characters, both from the mesophyll and the epidermis, were useful to delimit the two species. Keywords: bambusoideae, microscopic characters, herbaceous bamboos, specific delimitation. Análise comparativa da anatomia foliar de duas espécies de Parodiolyra Soderstr.

Understanding how different environmental factors influence species occurrence is a key issue to address the study of natural populations. However, there is a lack of knowledge on how local traits influence the microhabitat use of tropical arboreal lizards. Here, we investigated the microhabitat selection of the poorly known lizard Tropidurus lagunablanca (Squamata: Tropiduridae) and evaluated how environmental microhabitat features influence animal’s presence.

  • Altum “Orinoco” Angelfish ( Pterophyllum Altum )
    Altum “Orinoco” Angelfish ( Pterophyllum altum ) Order: Perciformes - Family: Cichlidae Type: Tropical Also known as: the Altum Angelfish, Deep Angelfish, or Orinoco Angelfish. Origin: It occurs strictly in the Orinoco River Basin and the Upper Rio Negro watershed in South- ern Venezuela, Southeastern Colombia and extreme Northern Brazil. Pterophyllum altum is the national fish of Venezuela and an image of the fish appears on some currency bills of that country. Overview: They are considered one of the most beautiful angels, but are more difficult to keep than the common angelfish, Pterophyllum scalare. They are also difficult to find in pet stores, as they are usually wild caught. Description: Pterophyllum altum, the species most commonly referred to as angelfish or freshwater angelfish, is the most common species of Pterophyllum held in captivity. Physical Characteristics: The species is the largest of the genus and specimens exceeding 50 cm in height (from tip of dorsal to tip of anal fin) have been reported in the wild; in aquariums, specimens are known to have grown to over 40 cm. Its natural base color is silver but with three brownish/red vertical stripes and red striations into the fins. The species may show red spotting and a bluish green dorsal overcast when mature and when aroused exhibits a black operculum spot. Characteristic of this species is an acute incision or notch above the nares (supraobital indention). All true Orinoco Altum specimens show this trait, whereas commercial hybrids product of crosses to Pterophyllum scalare, that are occasionally performed by breeders to sell them as "Orinoco Altum", may not exhibit the trait or it may appear in a lesser degree.
