  • Poaia [Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves]: aspectos da memória cultural dos poaieiros de Cáceres - Mato Grosso, Brasil
    Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), 2012
    Co-Authors: Teixeira V.a., Coelho M.f.b., Ming L.c.
    Abstract:

    O Brasil está entre os principais exportadores de poaia [Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves] seguido do Panamá e Costa Rica. A poaia brasileira apresenta alto valor farmacológico das raízes devido aos teores de emetina e cefalina. Este trabalho teve como objetivo descrever como as famílias de poaieiros mantém a memória cultural sobre a Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves. As informações foram coletadas no município de Cáceres, Mato Grosso, através de entrevista estruturada e observação participante com 20 homens e 10 mulheres, de faixa etária de 45 a 86 anos. Foram citadas as formas de utilização na alimentação para animais, inseticida, carrapaticida, emético, contra diarréias, para alívio de dor de cabeça, contra malária, bronquite e dor no estômago. A raiz é a parte mais usada e a forma de preparo é tintura ou misturada ao fumo, ao vinho ou à cachaça. Poucos entrevistados passaram aos filhos o conhecimento sobre a P. ipecacuanha. A memória cultural sobre a P. ipecacuanha deve-se a vivência, extração e comercialização da planta, e por ouvir as conversas dos pais com amigos. A perda de conhecimento associado a poaia é causada pelo êxodo rural, destruição do habitat com o desmatamento e ocupação agrícola. A extinção da espécie na região contribui para a erosão cultural.Brazil is among the leading exporters of ipecac [Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves], followed by Panama and Costa Rica. The roots of Brazilian ipecac have high pharmacological value due to their levels of emetine and cephalin. This study aimed to describe how families of poaieiros maintain the cultural memory of Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves. Information was collected in the city of Cáceres, Mato Grosso State, Brazil, through structured interviews and participating observation involving 20 men and 10 women aged from 45 to 86 years. The cited forms of use were in animal nutrition, as insecticide, acaricide, emetic, against diarrhea, relief from headache, and against malaria, bronchitis and stomach ache. The root is the most used part and its preparation form is tincture or mixed with tobacco, wine or sugarcane. Few interviewees transmitted to their children the knowledge of P. ipecacuanha. The cultural memory of P. ipecacuanha is due to experience, extraction and marketing of the plant, as well as to hearing conversations between parents and friends. The loss of knowledge associated with ipecac is caused by rural exodus, destruction of its habitat due to deforestation and agricultural occupation.

  • Rubiacearum Americanarum Magna Hama Pars XXXVII: The New Group Palicourea sect. Chocoanae of the Chocó Biogeographic Region, with Two New Species (Palicoureeae)
    Novon: A Journal for Botanical Nomenclature, 2017
    Co-Authors: Charlotte M Taylor
    Abstract:

    Psychotria L. subg. HeteroPsychotria Steyerm. has been shown, based on morphological and molecular analyses, to be polyphyletic. Most of its species, including its type, belong to Palicourea Aubl. Several Psychotria species studied here are related to species of Palicourea ser. 11 and are transferred here to Palicourea. Palicourea ser. 11 is formally described here as Palicourea sect. Chocoanae C. M. Taylor, except for four of its former species that are excluded. Palicourea sect. Chocoanae includes 15 species from Central and South America and is centered in the Choco biogeographic region of northwestern South America and eastern Panama. Palicourea sect. Chocoanae includes eight species already classified in this genus: Palicourea acanthacea (Standl. ex Steyerm.) C. M. Taylor, Palicourea deneversii (C. M. Taylor) Borhidi, Palicourea dimorphandrioides (Dwyer) C. M. Taylor, Palicourea frontinoensis Cogollo & C. M. Taylor, Palicourea grandistipula (Standl. ex Steyerm.) C. M. Taylor, Palicourea orquidea C. M. Taylor, Palicourea sopkinii C. M. Taylor, and Palicourea tamaensis (Standl. & Steyerm.) Steyerm. Four more species transferred into this genus have new nomenclatural combinations made here. Palicourea cotejensis (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Cephaelis cotejensis Standl.; Palicourea plusiantha (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria plusiantha Standl.; Palicourea timbiquensis (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria timbiquensis (Standl.) C. M. Taylor; and Palicourea trianae (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Cephaelis trianae Standl. One species, Palicourea psilophylla (Steyerm.) C. M. Taylor, was previously treated as a variety, Palicourea tamaensis var. psilophylla Steyerm. Two species are newly described here: Palicourea mistratoana C. M. Taylor is found in western Colombia and differs from Palicourea sopkinii in its smaller leaves, inflorescences, and bracts; and Palicourea shuar C. M. Taylor is found in southern Ecuador and differs from Palicourea sopkinii by its corymbiform inflorescences and shorter bracts. A lectotype is designated for Cephaelis grandistipula Standl. ex Steyerm.

    Abstract:

    Abstract Taylor, C.M., S.G. Razafimandimbison, L. Barrabe, J.G. Jardim & M.R.V. Barbosa (2017). Eumachia expanded, a pantropical genus distinct from Psychotria (Rubiaceae, Palicoureeae). Candollea 72 : 289–318. In English, English abstract. The pantropical genus Margaritopsis C. Wright (Rubiaceae, Palicoureeae) was recently separated from Psychotria L. and transferred to a different tribe, Palicoureeae, based on both molecular and morphological data. Margaritopsis has been studied in the Neotropics, and in Africa as Chazaliella E.M.A. Petit & Verdc.; the species that belong to this group in the Pacific are enumerated for the first time here. Recently Eumachia DC. was found to be an older name for this group, and a few species of Margaritopsis have been transferred nomenclaturally to that genus. Here Eumachia is surveyed comprehensively for the first time, with a list of species and an overview of morphological characteristics. The remaining species of Margaritopsis are nomenclaturally transferred here to ...

  • Rubiacearum Americanarum Magna Hama XXXIII: The New Group Palicourea sect. Didymocarpae with Four New Species and Two New Subspecies (Palicoureeae)
    Novon: A Journal for Botanical Nomenclature, 2015
    Co-Authors: Charlotte M Taylor
    Abstract:

    Morphological and molecular studies show that many of the species classified in Psychotria L. subg. HeteroPsychotria Steyerm. belong to Palicourea Aubl. Accordingly, most of the species of Psychotria sect. Didymocarpos Steyerm. plus several additional species are transferred to the new Palicourea sect. Didymocarpae C. M. Taylor; however, the type species of Steyermark's section, Psychotria bahiensis DC., does not have the diagnostic fruit and pyrene morphology and is excluded. Palicourea sect. Didymocarpae includes 17 species found from central Mexico and the Antilles to northeastern South America and Bolivia and is diagnosed by its didymous fruits with two subglobose pyrenes that are smooth abaxially and have thin-textured walls. New combinations are made: Palicourea boraginoides (Dwyer) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria acuminata Benth. subsp. boraginoides Dwyer; Palicourea candelabrum (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria candelabrum Standl.; Palicourea ceratantha (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria ceratantha Standl.; Palicourea compta (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria compta Standl.; Palicourea cuspidata (Bredem. ex Schult.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria cuspidata Bredem. ex Schult.; Palicourea cuspidulata (K. Krause) C. M. Taylor is based on Cephaelis cuspidulata K. Krause; Palicourea huampamiensis (C. M. Taylor) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria huampamiensis C. M. Taylor; Palicourea jauaensis (Steyerm.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria jauaensis Steyerm.; Palicourea pandensis (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria pandensis Standl.; Palicourea rhodothamna (Standl.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria rhodothamna Standl.; Palicourea spicata (Kuntze) C. M. Taylor is based on Uragoga spicata Kuntze, a replacement name for the illegitimate name Psychotria spicata Mull. Arg.; and Palicourea subcuspidata (Mull. Arg.) C. M. Taylor is based on Psychotria subcuspidata Mull. Arg. and includes Psychotria cornigera Benth., recognized as a separate species from Psychotria bahiensis. Flowers are described for the first time for Palicourea candelabrum, and the circumscriptions of Palicourea acuminata (Benth.) Borhidi, Palicourea compta, and Palicourea rhodothamna are revised. The new species Palicourea andina C. M. Taylor is found in western Panama and the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia and distinguished from Palicourea cuspidata by its corollas that lack abaxial horns on the lobes; two subspecies are separated, Palicourea andina subsp. panamensis C. M. Taylor in Panama and the typical subspecies in the Andes. The new species Palicourea diminuta C. M. Taylor of the Guianas and adjacent northeastern Brazil is distinguished by its small straight corollas. The new species Palicourea madidiensis C. M. Taylor of southern Peru and Bolivia differs from Palicourea acuminata in its corolla lobes with small abaxial projections and its habitat at higher elevations. The new species Palicourea sanluisensis C. M. Taylor of northwestern Colombia differs from Palicourea acuminata in its stiff-textured leaves, corollas with small abaxial thickenings on the lobes, and habitat on sandstone substrates. The new subspecies Palicourea cuspidata subsp. occidentalis C. M. Taylor is found in mountain forests of Colombia and northern Ecuador and is disjunct from the typical subspecies. The names Cephaelis cuspidulata and Declieuxia psychotrioides DC. are lectotypified.

    Abstract:

    O Brasil está entre os principais exportadores de poaia [Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves] seguido do Panamá e Costa Rica. A poaia brasileira apresenta alto valor farmacológico das raízes devido aos teores de emetina e cefalina. Este trabalho teve como objetivo descrever como as famílias de poaieiros mantém a memória cultural sobre a Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves. As informações foram coletadas no município de Cáceres, Mato Grosso, através de entrevista estruturada e observação participante com 20 homens e 10 mulheres, de faixa etária de 45 a 86 anos. Foram citadas as formas de utilização na alimentação para animais, inseticida, carrapaticida, emético, contra diarréias, para alívio de dor de cabeça, contra malária, bronquite e dor no estômago. A raiz é a parte mais usada e a forma de preparo é tintura ou misturada ao fumo, ao vinho ou à cachaça. Poucos entrevistados passaram aos filhos o conhecimento sobre a P. ipecacuanha. A memória cultural sobre a P. ipecacuanha deve-se a vivência, extração e comercialização da planta, e por ouvir as conversas dos pais com amigos. A perda de conhecimento associado a poaia é causada pelo êxodo rural, destruição do habitat com o desmatamento e ocupação agrícola. A extinção da espécie na região contribui para a erosão cultural.Brazil is among the leading exporters of ipecac [Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves], followed by Panama and Costa Rica. The roots of Brazilian ipecac have high pharmacological value due to their levels of emetine and cephalin. This study aimed to describe how families of poaieiros maintain the cultural memory of Psychotria ipecacuanha (Brot.) Stoves. Information was collected in the city of Cáceres, Mato Grosso State, Brazil, through structured interviews and participating observation involving 20 men and 10 women aged from 45 to 86 years. The cited forms of use were in animal nutrition, as insecticide, acaricide, emetic, against diarrhea, relief from headache, and against malaria, bronchitis and stomach ache. The root is the most used part and its preparation form is tincture or mixed with tobacco, wine or sugarcane. Few interviewees transmitted to their children the knowledge of P. ipecacuanha. The cultural memory of P. ipecacuanha is due to experience, extraction and marketing of the plant, as well as to hearing conversations between parents and friends. The loss of knowledge associated with ipecac is caused by rural exodus, destruction of its habitat due to deforestation and agricultural occupation. The extinction of this species in the region contributes to cultural erosion
