  • The Therapeutic Potential of Ayahuasca 7 Michael A
    The Therapeutic Potential of Ayahuasca 7 Michael A. Coe and Dennis J. McKenna 7.1 Introduction Ayahuasca is a Quechua term that is commonly translated into “vine of the spirits, vine of the soul, or vine of the dead” and refers to jungle liana in the Malpighiaceae family taxonomically known as Banisteriopsiscaapi Spruce ex. Griseb. The same term is synonymous with a psychoactive tea or beverage traditionally used by cul- tural groups throughout parts of Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, Venezuela, and Ecuador during rites of passage, divination, warfare, magico-religious practices, and for healing in the context of ethnomedical practices [1 – 4 ]. Traditional prepara- tions of ayahuasca tea include the combination of bark and stems of the Banisteriopsis caapi liana plus admixture plants; most commonly the leaves of Psychotria viridis Ruiz & Pav. (Rubiaceae) or Diplopterys cabrerana (Cuatrec.) B. Gates (Malpighiaceae) are boiled and reduced for several hours [5 ]. 7.1.1 Constituents Bioactive investigations of ayahuasca have revealed a unique synergistic chemistry and pharmacology in regard to its source and admixture plants. The leaves of P. viridis and D. cabrerana contain a highly potent, typically short-acting M. A.

  • UPDATED 18Th February 2013
    7th February 2015 Welcome to my new seed trade list for 2014-15. 12, 13 and 14 in brackets indicates the harvesting year for the seed. Concerning seed quantity: as I don't have many plants of each species, seed quantity is limited in most cases. Therefore, for some species you may only get a few seeds. Many species are harvested in my garden. Others are surplus from trade and purchase. OUT: Means out of stock. Sometimes I sell surplus seed (if time allows), although this is unlikely this season. NB! Cultivars do not always come true. I offer them anyway, but no guarantees to what you will get! Botanical Name (year of harvest) NB!

C., Colombia; [email protected] (autor corresponsal). Abstract. Giraldo-Cañas, D. 2021. Malpighiaceae from Colombia: Patterns of distribution, richness, endemism, and phylogenetic diversity. Darwiniana, nueva serie 9(1): 39-54. Malpighiaceae constitutes a family of 77 genera and ca. 1300 species, distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of both hemispheres. They are mainly diversified in the American continent and distributed in a wide range of habitats and altitudinal gradients. For this reason, this family can be a model plant group to ecological and biogeographical analyses, as well as evolutive studies. In this context, an analysis of distribution, richness, endemism and phylogenetic diversity of Malpighiaceae in natural regions and their altitudinal gradients was undertaken. Malpighiaceae are represented in Colombia by 34 genera and 246 species (19.1% of endemism). Thus, Colombia and Brazil (44 genera, 584 species, 61% of endemism) are the two richest countries on species of this family. The highest species richness and endemism in Colombia is found in the lowlands (0-500 m a.s.l.: 212 species, 28 endemics); only ten species are distributed on highlands (2500-3200 m a.s.l.). Of the Malpighiaceae species in Colombia, Heteropterys leona and Stigmaphyllon bannisterioides have a disjunct amphi-Atlantic distribution, and six other species show intra-American disjunctions.

International Organization for Succulent Plant Study Internationale Organisation für Sukkulentenforschung December 2004 ISSN 0486-4271 Conventions used in Repertorium Plantarum Succulentarum — Repertorium Plantarum Succulentarum attempts to list, under separate headings, newly published names of succulent plants and relevant literature on the systematics of these plants, on an annual basis. New names noted after the issue for the relevant year has gone to press are included in later issues. Specialist periodical literature is scanned in full (as available at the libraries at ZSS and Z or received by the compilers). Also included is information supplied to the compilers direct. It is urgently requested that any reprints of papers not published in readily available botanical literature be sent to the compilers. — Validly published names are given in bold face type, accompanied by an indication of the nomenclatu- ral type (name or specimen dependent on rank), followed by the herbarium acronyms of the herbaria where the holotype and possible isotypes are said to be deposited (first acronym for holotype), accord- ing to Index Herbariorum, ed. 8 and supplements as published in Taxon. Invalid, illegitimate, or incor- rect names are given in italic type face. In either case a full bibliographic reference is given. For new combinations, the basionym is also listed. For invalid, illegitimate or incorrect names, the articles of the ICBN which have been contravened are indicated in brackets (note that the numbering of some regularly cited articles has changed in the Tokyo (1994) edition of ICBN).

This botanical treasure trove is under growing pressure from a complex chain of cause and effect of unprecedented magnitude: demographic, socio-economic and climatic changes, habitat conversion and loss, unsustainable use of native species and introduction of exotic ones, together with environmental contamination are rapidly transforming China’s ecosystems. There is a steady rise in the number of plant species that are on the verge of extinction. Great Wall, Badaling, Beijing (Image: Zhang Qingyuan) Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) therefore seeks to assist China in its endeavours to maintain and conserve the country’s extraordinary botanical heritage and the benefits that this biological diversity provides for human well-being. It is a challenging venture and represents one of BGCI’s core practical conservation programmes.

  • Docket 07-Afc-5
    DOCKET 07-AFC-5 DATE SEP 24 2008 RECD. SEP 24 2008 Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System (ISEGS) (07-AFC-5) Supplemental Data Response, Set 1D (Responses to: Biological Resources) Submitted to the California Energy Commission Submitted by Solar Partners I, LLC; Solar Partners II, LLC; Solar Partners IV, LLC; and Solar Partners VIII, LLC September 24, 2008 With Assistance from 2485 Natomas Park Drive Suite 600 Sacramento, CA 95833 Introduction Attached are supplemental responses (Set 1D) by Solar Partners I, LLC; Solar Partners II, LLC; Solar Partners IV, LLC; and Solar Partners VIII, LLC (Applicant) to the California Energy Commission (CEC) Staff’s data requests for the Ivanpah Solar Electric Generating System (Ivanpah SEGS) Project (07-AFC-5). These data requests are the result of the workshop discussion held at Primm, Nevada on June 23, 2008.Within each discipline area, the responses are presented in alphabetical order and are numbered for tracking and reference convenience. New graphics or tables are numbered in reference to the Supplemental Data Request number. For example, if a table were used in response to Data Request AQ-1, it would be numbered Table AQ1-1. The first figure used in response to Data Request AQ-1 would be Figure AQ1-1, and so on. AFC figures or tables that have been revised have “R1” following the original number, indicating revision 1. Additional tables, figures, or documents submitted in response to a supplemental data request (supporting data, stand-alone documents such as plans, folding graphics, etc.) are found at the end of a discipline-specific section and may not be sequentially page-numbered consistently with the remainder of the document, though they may have their own internal page numbering system.
