Introduction Many investigators have stated (e.g. Lindau 1895, Wodehouse Erdtman that 1935, 1952), pollen morphology can be of great also importance for plant taxonomy, while it was known that in Euphorbiaceae several types of pollen grains exist (e.g. Erdtman 1952). On the suggestion of Professor Lanjouw, who himself has worked on the Euphorbiaceae of Surinam, the author has investigated the pollen grains of this family of that area. From the result it was apparent that in the Surinam different could be Euphorbiaceae many pollen types distinguished.

This report describes the creation of long-term forest monitoring plots, part of a larger program for sustainable timber harvest through timber certification. The work focuses on CARPE IR 1.2 (sustainable management plans within forestry concessions), IR 3 (monitoring the state of the basin), and also contributes to IR2 through training and capacity building for forest monitoring.

A comparison of the plant vernacular names and use shows a cultural diversity and inter-group differences in the knowledge of plants among the groups, although they share a similar overall use pattern and the knowledge of certain important species. The factors affecting such similarities and differences in plant use are discussed in relation to the natural and social conditions. Key Words: Hunter-gatherers; Plant use; Ethnobotany; Tropical rain forest; Cultural diversity. INTRODUCTION I. Intellectual Heritage of the Forest People The Mbuti Pygmies who live in the Ituri Forest of the Democratic Republic of Congo (former Za¨ıre) are one of the best known hunter-gatherers in Africa by the works of Paul Schebesta (1933) and Colin Turnbull (1961, 1965).

The new spe- cies belongs to sect. Grossera and it is most similar to G. paniculata, but the two species can be readily distinguished by several leaf characters. A key for the species of sect. Grossera is provided. Keywords: Aleuritideae, Crotonoideae, Grosserinae, Litoral province, riverside Introduction Grossera Pax (1903: 281) is a dioecious genus of Euphorbiaceae with an Afro-Malagasy distribution, including one species in Madagascar and the remaining ones in West and Central Tropical Africa, from Ivory Coast to the Democratic Republic of Congo and Angola (Govaerts 2014, Barberá et al. 2014). The genus is currently classified in subfamily Crotonoideae, tribe Aleuritideae, and subtribe Grosserinae (van Welzen & Stuppy 1999, Radcliffe-Smith 2001, Wurdack et al. 2005, APG 2009), and it is divided in three sections based on morphological characters: sect. Grossera, sect. Eglandulosae Léonard (1955: 318) and sect. Columnella (Cavaco 1949: 274) Barberá (in Barberá et al. 2014: 506). The most recent taxonomic revision of Grossera recognized eight species of trees and shrubs occurring in a wide range of habitats, from primary to degraded forest and from sea level to 1350 m elevation (Barberá et al.

  • A Preliminary Assessment of the Vegetation of the Dzanga Sangha Protected Area Complex, Central African Republic
    A PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT OF THE VEGETATION OF THE DZANGA SANGHA PROTECTED AREA COMPLEX, CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC Report compiled by Michael Balinga, Sainge Moses and Eunice Fombod With the technical assistance of: Terry C.H. Sunderland, Sakwe Chantal and Stella Asaha A PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT OF THE VEGETATION OF THE DZANGA SANGHA PROTECTED AREA COMPLEX, CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC August 2006 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Effective management of the Congo Basin forest ecosystems needs to be based on models based on sound science and technical capacity to implemented sustainable management regimes. Unfortunately, not only is this scientific knowledge often lacking the major constraint is also that there is a shortage of well trained professionals. In addition, the absence of comparative data collected in a meticulous and standardised manner from the various ecological and geographic regions within and between the countries of the Congo Basin is also a limiting factor to a regional management approach. To this effect and with funding from the Central African Regional Programme for the Environment (CARPE), the Smithsonian Institution assisted the park managers of the Dzanga Sangha Protected Area Complex (DSPAC) to set up five 1ha Biodiversity Plots (BDPs) adding to the network of BDPs already established in the Congo Basin according to the standardised 1 ha configuration described by Dallmeier (1990) and permitting long term monitoring of biological diversity at various levels. The major objectives of this study were to evaluate the botanical diversity of the Dzanga sector of the DSPAC, and across different sectors, as well as to determine the impact of logging and the recuperation period on the biodiversity of the forests in the DSPAC.
