  • Chapter 15. Central and Eastern Africa: Overview
    Chapter 15 Chapter 15 CENTRAL AND EASTERN AFRICA: OVERVIEW The region as treated here is comprised mainly of Angola, Cameroon, Central African Republic, Congo (Brazzaville), Congo (Kinshasa) (formerly Zaire), Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia. The wide variety of insects eaten includes at least 163 species, 121 genera, 34 families and 10 orders. Of this group the specific identity is known for 128 species, only the generic identity for another 21, only the family identity of another 12 and only the order identity of one. Gomez et al (1961) estimated that insects furnished 10% of the animal proteins produced annually in Congo (Kinshasa). Yet, in this region, as in others, insect use has been greatly under-reported and under-studied. Until recently, for example, the specific identity was known for fewer than twenty species of insects used in Congo (Kinshasa), but, in a careful study confined only to caterpillars and only to the southern part of the country, Malaisse and Parent (1980) distinguished 35 species of caterpillars used as food. The extent of insect use throughout the region is probably similar to that in Congo (Kinshasa) and Zambia, the best-studied countries. Research is needed. Caterpillars and termites are the most widely marketed insects in the region, but many others are also important from the food standpoint, nutritionally, economically or ecologically. As stated by this author (DeFoliart 1989): "One can't help but wonder what the ecological and nutritional maps of Africa might look like today if more effort had been directed toward developing some of these caterpillar, termite, and other food insect resources." The inclusion of food insects in the Africa-wide Exhibition on Indigenous Food Technologies held in Nairobi, Kenya, in 1995 is indicative of the resurgence of interest in this resource by the scientific community of the continent.

Handa) Abstract To diversify flower color and growth habit of marguerite (Argyranthemum frutescens), intergeneric crossing was carried out using marguerite as the seed parent and annual chrysanthemum (Glebionis carinatum) or crown daisy (G. coronaria) as the pollen parent. After cross-pollination, seedlings were successfully obtained by applying ovule culture. Ovule culture-derived plants showed novel characteristics in flower shape and color (orange, reddish brown, or wisteria pink) that are not observed in marguerite. Some also showed novel flowering habits such as perpetual flowering. The results indicate that these ovule culture-derived plants were intergeneric hybrids and that the hybrids obtained in the present study may be useful for further breeding of marguerite, especially for introducing valuable characteristics such as a wide range of flower color. Key words: Argyranthemum, Glebionis, intergeneric hybridization, ovule culture. Marguerite (Argyranthemum frutescens) is a perennial germplasm for the breeding of marguerite, but most of plant native to the Canary Islands, Spain (Bramwell et them have white flowers and diversity in flower color and al. 2001) and Madeira, Portugal (Press et al.

Santa Marta. Colombia. * [email protected] Recibido: 28-02-2011; Aceptado: 11-05-2011 Abstract Recruitment, defined and measured as the incorporation of new individuals (i.e. coral juveniles) into a population, is a fundamental process for ecologists, evolutionists and conservationists due to its direct effect on population structure and function. Because most coral populations are self-feeding, a breakdown in recruitment would lead to local extinction. Recruitment indirectly affects both renewal and maintenance of existing and future coral communities, coral reef biodiversity (bottom-up effect) and therefore coral reef resilience. This process has been used as an indirect measure of individual reproductive success (fitness) and is the final stage of larval dispersal leading to population connectivity. As a result, recruitment has been proposed as an indicator of coral-reef health in marine protected areas, as well as a central aspect of the decision-making process concerning management and conservation.

  • Marine Management
    MARINE MANAGEMENT GALÁPAGOS REPORT 2015 - 2016 Analysis of agreements reached in the Participatory Management Board 2010-2015 Elvis Llerena, Tania Quisingo and Roberto Maldonado Galapagos National Park Directorate Photo: © Alex Hearn Introduction The Galapagos Marine Reserve (GMR) was created in 1998 within the framework of the Special Law for Galapagos (LOREG or Ley de Régimen Especial para la Conservación y Desarrollo Sustentable de la Provincia de Galápagos; CNE, 1998). Currently, the conservation of resources of the GMR is high and social conflicts have been addressed with the participation of all of its users. This article reviews participatory management of the GMR and the priorities of the Participatory Management Board (PMG) during its last six years of existence, prior to its dissolution under the 2015 reform of the Special Law (National Assembly, 2015). While the human population in the Galapagos Islands increased gradually throughout much of the 20th century, population growth accelerated as a result of burgeoning tourism activity beginning in the 1970s. At first, the local community focused on agricultural activities, hunting, and fishing to sustain their families. Fisheries became a necessity for survival as well as a traditional activity among Galapagos residents. Fishing focused mainly on lobster and white fish, with sea cucumber harvesting beginning in the 1990s. The enactment of the LOREG in 1998 marked an historic milestone for fisheries for two primary reasons: 1) it created the GMR, with an extension of 40 miles measured from the outer coastlines; and 2) it restricted fishing activities within the GMR to local fishermen who were affiliated with a legally constituted fishing cooperative.

This study shows how forest regrowth affects beetle species associated with old oaks in south-eastern Sweden. Beetles were trapped by pitfall traps placed in hollows and window traps placed near hollows in oak trunks in pasture woodlands. We assessed the influence of forest regrowth, tree size and original canopy cover on the species richness of saproxylic beetles (a total of 120 species identified) and the occurrence of 68 saproxylic beetle species in particular.

Weeds aggressively from plants that are escaping from gardens and compete with native species for resources such as becoming serious coastal weeds. Garden escapees sunlight, nutrients, space, water, and pollinators. The account for some of the most damaging environmental regeneration of native plants is inhibited once weeds are weeds in Australia. Weeds are a major environmental established, causing biodiversity to be reduced. problem facing our coastline, threatening biodiversity and the preservation of native flora and fauna.

  • Conservation Advice Galaxias Johnstoni Clarence Galaxias
    THREATENED SPECIES SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE Established under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 The Minister’s delegate approved this Conservation Advice on 16/12/2016 . Conservation Advice Galaxias johnstoni Clarence galaxias Conservation Status Galaxias johnstoni (Clarence galaxias) is listed as Endangered under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwlth) (EPBC Act) effective from 16 July 2000. The species was eligible for listing under the EPBC Act as on 16 July 2000 it was listed as Endangered under Schedule 1 of the preceding Act, the Endangered Species Protection Act 1992 (Cwlth). Species can also be listed as threatened under state and territory legislation. For information on the current listing status of this species under relevant state or territory legislation, see http://www.environment.gov.au/cgi-bin/sprat/public/sprat.pl . The main factors that make the species eligible for listing in the Endangered category are that the Clarence galaxias had experienced past decline, it had a limited distribution in central Tasmania that was severely fragmented and continuing decline was inferred given the presence of introduced fish species in areas where some of the populations occur (TSS 2006). Description The Clarence galaxias, family Galaxiidae, is a small, stout freshwater fish, reaching a maximum length of approximately 140 mm (Allen et al., 2002; TSS 2006). Adults are dark brown in colour with irregular brown bars or blotches on the back and sides, tending to a yellow belly (Allen et al., 2002; TSS 2006). Numerous very small black spots are often present, but these are parasites in the skin rather than natural markings of the species (Fulton 1990).

Biodiversity Data Journal 3: e4078. doi: 10.3897/BDJ.3.e4078 Abstract Saproxylic beetles – associated with dead wood or with other insects, fungi and microorganisms that decompose it – play a major role in forest nutrient cycling. They are important ecosystem service providers and are used as key bio-indicators of old-growth forests. In France alone, where the present study took place, there are about 2500 species distributed within 71 families. This high diversity represents a major challenge for specimen sorting and identification. The PASSIFOR project aims at developing a DNA metabarcoding approach to facilitate and enhance the monitoring of saproxylic beetles as indicators in ecological studies.
