Volunteers requested Dear readers, this is the last newsletter of Jan Vermeer the year, with again much news about our Project director projects for the San Martin titi monkey. In 2013 we will continue with our existing projects and execute new ones. We hope that we can count on the support of all of you, to protect the natural patrimony of Peru. Victoria Pérez Tello President The San Martin titi monkey: in need of protection hen Proyecto Mono Tocón initiated in 2007 the W project for the San Martin titi monkey, almost nothing was known about this species. Our knowledge was restricted to a few observations in the Alto Mayo Valley and six museum specimens. The extensive surveys in the first years revealed that the species has a relatively small distribution range in the San Martin Department and that it is threatened by high rates of habitat loss. Titi monkeys prefer living in forests below 1000m altitude, which is also the preferred land for agriculture. The result is that their habitat is converted in very fast in rice and corn fields. At the same moment, most conservation efforts of the regional government and other conservation associations concentrate on the highlands. This is partly because the focus is especially on the protection of water sources, but probably also because there are less people living in the mountains and therefore less risk for conflicts. What has been neglected is that the area between the eastern feet of the Andes and the Amazonian lowland forest represents a unique zone with several endemic animal and plant species. And one of this species is the critically endangered San Martin titi monkey. With our work, we have been able to put the fate of this primate species on the agenda of other conservation organisations and the regional government. The species has recently been added to The World’s 25 most endangered Primates list. We hope that this will generate more support for the conservation activities of Proyecto Mono Tocón and other organisations. New protected areas for the San Martin titi monkey ery good news reached us last month. On the 21st of December, the two proposed Conservation V Concessions “Shitariyacu” and “Tres Quebradas” have officially been recognized as protected areas by the Peruvian authorities. This is great news for the San Martin titi monkeys living in the area, and for all other endangered animal species that share their habitat. The initiative for the conservation concessions came from the local associations of Ricardo Palma and Bagazán. Since 2011, both associations received technical support from the team of Proyecto Mono Tocón and the NGO Neotropical Primate Conservation for the compilation of the application. We now have started an extensive educational programme to increase support for the area and will support the local communities with the design of the management plan. Both areas are connected, and cover almost 6.000 hectares. In November we visited with members of the associations neighbouring communities, to inform them about the importance of nature conservation and to incite conservation initiatives. We hope to be able to enlarge the area with another 5.000 hectares, by adding conservation concessions that are connected to the existing protected area. We are very happy that we can do this together with the people from Bagazán and Ricardo Palma, who show how much they are concerned with nature conservation. The first results are promising; one community already requested the support of Proyecto Mono Tocón for the creation of their conservation concession. We are confident that others will follow in 2013. The creation of the conservation concessions is just a first step. Proyecto Mono Tocón works with the regional tourism board and other organisations on a project for a birding route in San Martin. It is planned that the birders will also come to both conservation concessions. This will provide additional income for the communities and therefore increased support for nature conservation. We are investigating additional ways to stimulate a sustainable economic development of the villages. Page 2 PROYECTO MONO TOCÓN Support for community conservation initiatives ature conservation in protected areas is only effective if N supported by the human populations living around the area. Without their support it will be impossible to stop deforestation, ban (or regulate) hunting and limit other negative human impact. Ideally, the initiative for the protection of an area should come from the local communities themselves. It is fortunate that the local attitude to nature conservation in rural Peru is very positive, and that the Peruvian government gives local communities the tools to create their own protected areas. Even settlers, migrated from other regions in Peru and living on governmental territory, can unite themselves in local associations and apply for the creation of a Conservation Concession. They will never become owner of the land, but will be able to manage it and protect the area against deforestation and unsustainable use. The introduction of this system has become a big success in San Martin; a surface of almost 480.000 hectares has already been approved as conservation concession, and there are proposals for another 270.000 hectares. Most of it unfortunaltey outside the distribution range of the titi monkeys. To inform communities about the system of conservation concessions, Proyecto Mono Tocón organised in November a workshop, together with the municipality of Pachiza and NGO Neotropical Primate Conservation. During the workshop there was a wide array of presentations. Biologists talked about biodiversity, local associations shared their experiences with conservation concessions and other entities talked about the management of protected areas. Through workshops the development of conservation concessions were discussed. The workshop was a great moment to share thoughts with so many people that are involved in this type of work. It was motivating to hear about the eagerness of local associations to protect their natural resources. Proyecto Mono Tocón will use the results of the workshop to further improve our support to the communities. This workshop was part of our Central Huallaga programme, which we began this year with the help of the European Zoos. Zoo d’Amneville (France) pledged to support this programme for at least three years with a significant financial contribution. We hope that we will be able to help many more communities with the creation and management of their concessions. Page 3 PROYECTO MONO TOCÓN Nuevo Chimbote, a refuge for titi monkeys? n our search for possibilities to create protected areas for the San Martin titi monkey, our research team I visited recently the community of Nuevo Chimbote. Nuevo Chimbote is situated just north of the Huayabamba River, at the southern boundary of the distribution range of the species. As often in San Martin, the community consists of settlers that have migrated from other areas in Peru. They live on governmental “free” territory that they nowadays see as their own property. Our first surveys indicated that there remains a large amount of forest around their village and we heard the vocalisations of San Martin titi monkeys. Many members of the community seem to be eager to protect the forest on the territory and they already work on a reforestation project. They are not owner of the area, but could apply for a Conservation Concession. This will not give them ownership, but they will be able to manage the area and protect it against destructive activities of others. The community lacks the knowledge and finances for the applications, and Proyecto Mono Tocón has offered to help founding a local conservation association and to support all necessary tasks that are necessary for the proposal of the Conservation Concession to the relevant authorities. If we succeed, the community of Nuevo Chimbote would make an important contribution to the conservation of the San Martin titi monkey, with a Conservation Concession of possibly even tens of thousands of hectares. Environmental education in the native communities o involve more people with our education- T al programme in the native communities of the Alto Mayo, we organised in August the “1st Environmental Festival of the Awajun Communities in the Alto Mayo”. Hundreds of children joined the various activities that had been organised by the team of Proyecto Mono Tocón and our volunteers. The children could win prices with drawing competitions, heard stories about nature and participated in many other educational activities.

The cestodes were evaluated morphologically and molecularly. A fragment of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene (cox1) was used as a genetic marker. All the cestodes were identified as Taenia omissa. In the present report, we give a brief description by molecular and morphological diagnosis of the cestodes and compare nucleotide sequences with previous isolates from GenBank. Upon comparison, the sequences showed a difference in thecox1 gene of 5.1 to 5.3% with other teniids sequences. This finding constitutes the first report of T.

Information from this publication may be reproduced, but preferably with the prior permission of the Proyecto Mono Tocón association. he year 2013 has again been a year with much expansion of the activities of Proyecto Mono Tocón. Despite all efforts by local communities, authorities and non-governmental organisations, the T situation of the San Martin titi monkey (Callicebus oenanthe) is critical. There is an ever increasing human pressure on its habitat and little of its forest remains. We are supporting several local communities with the conservation of their forest, home of the San Martin titi monkey. But the question that keeps us occupied is if this is enough to safe the species from extinction. Without more political involvement, it will be very difficult to create safe havens for viable populations of titi monkeys. The Regional Government of San Martin will have to review their intentions for the territory and decide if it would not be better to change the designation of many thousands of hectares of production forest into in conservation areas. Our conservation work concentrates on the Central Huallaga area, as this is the region where we still can find the titi monkey’s habitat and maybe even more important, local communities that want to protect their forest. To better understand the needs of the titi monkeys, we have started in 2013 several long term research programmes, focussing on titi monkey densities in different types of forest and on behaviour.

The study found that floristic biodiversity in the River Chancay-Lambayeque watershed corresponds to a total of 113 species, comprised in 104 genera and 53 families. Of which 5 tree species, 2 shrubs and 1 herbaceous are threatened. Regarding wildlife, 37 species have been registered, of which 6 are threatened. The study shows that the GEO methodology for diagnosing threatened species in urban areas could be used in non-urban areas. By other hand, eight species of flora and six of threatened fauna were found in the Chancay - Lambayeque Valley. KEYWORDS: Biological diversity, Biodiversity, GEO methodology, threatened species, species categorization, inventory. INTRODUCTION The Convention on Biological Diversity (UN, 1992) states that biodiversity term includes the variability of living organisms from any source and that must be included the ecosystems, interspecific and intraspecific variability.
