Firewood, Landscape, and Culture: Strategies of Collection and Use Among Settlers and Guaranies in the Argentine Atlantic Forest
This ethnobotanical study, conducted in rural settler and Guarani populations sharing similar environments within the Yabotí Biosphere Reserve's area of influence in Misiones, Argentina, analyzes and compares local firewood utilization practices and the landscape associated with these practices. We surveyed the general characteristics of the managed landscapes, categorized the observed environments according to management intensity, identified fi…
Ecological Indigenous (EIK) and Scientific (ESK) Knowledge Integration as a Tool for Sustainable Development in Indigenous Communities. Experience in Misiones, Argentina
Diversity of plant species used as firewood in indigenous colonized communities: An ethnobotanical study in East Misiones, Argentina
Species selection criteria for firewood. Preferred species and classification categories in two local communities in eastern Misiones, Argentina
Background: Human populations develop locally-based knowledge about the species used as firewood through the use of natural resources, and by experimenting with cultural guidelines and transmitting their experiencies. In the selection and use of firewood this knowledge is mainly based on the igneous properties of each species. This study was carried out in rural settlements and indigenous populations of the province of Misiones, Argentina. We sur…
Host Plants Association with Longhorn Beetles of Food Value: Traditional Knowledge of the Guaraní as Cultural Identity Keepers
The study of plant-insect interactions and how cultural groups perceive and manage them constitutes one of the interests of ethnoentomology. This work describes the association between host plants and longhorn beetles (Order: Coleoptera; Family: Cerambycidae), an important food among the Guaraní peoples of the province of Misiones, Argentina. Different management methods of host tree species are analyzed in order to promote the rearing of larvae …
Landscape management among the Guarani of the Atlantic Forest of Misiones, Argentina: The case of the Syagrus romanzoffiana (Cham.) Glassman (Arecaceae) palm tree
The study of the management practices that different Guarani settlements have carried out in the environment over time constitutes one of the objectives of ethnoecology and historical ecology as the way through which these communities obtain forest resources affects landscape settings. In this work, based on a local classification system of the ontogenic stages of the pindo palm tree Syagrus romanzoffiana (Cham.) Glassman (Arecaceae), we study th…
Management of pindo palm (Syagrus romanzoffiana Arecaceae) in rearing of Coleoptera edible larvae by the Guarani of Northeastern Argentina
Rearing of coleopteran larvae on palm tree stems as a food source is extended among Amerindian groups is as a food source as coleopteran larvae are reared on their stems.Guarani groups settled in the province of Misiones, in northeastern Argentina, consume three species of Dryophthoridae larvae (Metamasius hemipterus, Rhynchophorus palmarum and Rhinostomus barbirostris) which are rear in the stipes of Syagrus romanzoffiana palm.This work deals wi…
