Taxonomy, ecology, harvesting methods, ethnopharmacological use, trade and prospects for sustainable management of Prunus africana (Hook. f.) Kalkman (Rosaceae)
Background: Prunus africana (Hook. F) Kalkman has been the spotlight of foresters and scientists for several decades. However, the knowledge about this plant, which is classified as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), is patchy. This article provides a bibliographic review for the current knowledge on Prunus africana, focus on harvesting methods, ethnobotanical and ethnopharmacological use, trade and stakehold…
Ethnobotanical knowledge of Prunus africana (Hook. f.) Kalkman (Rosaceae) by people living in community forests in North Kivu, Eastern Democratic Republic of Congo
Background: Prunus africana (Hook. f) Kalkman (Rosaceae) is a multi-purpose species with important utility value for the populations that depend on it. Indeed, local populations living in community forests use P. africana. The objective of this study is to document the different uses of P. africana by local populations in traditional medicine for a better vulgarization for a sustainable management of the resource. Methods: Ethnobotanical surveys …
Assessing forest products usage and local residents' perception of environmental changes in peri-urban and rural mangroves of Cameroon, Central Africa
BACKGROUND: Deforestation is one of the most ubiquitous forms of land degradation worldwide. Although remote sensing and aerial photographs can supply valuable information on land/use cover changes, they may not regularly be available for some tropical coasts (e.g., Cameroon estuary) where cloud cover is frequent. With respect to mangroves, researchers are now employing local knowledge as an alternative means of understanding forest disturbances.…
Commercial activities and subsistence utilization of mangrove forests around the Wouri estuary and the Douala-Edea reserve (Cameroon)
Background Worldwide there is growing research interest in the ethnobiology of mangrove forests. Notwithstanding that, little information has been published about ethnobiology of mangrove forests in Cameroon. The aims of this study were a) to analyze the harvesting methods and the local selling of mangrove wood products by loggers in the vicinity of Wouri estuary and b) to investigate the patterns of subsistence uses of mangrove wood products aro…
