“…The creation of RESEXs has not been sufficient to contain deforestation (Santana & Pedroso, 2019), mainly due to the effects of negative externalities that affect the maintenance of (Fearnside et al, 2018). Thus, it is necessary to carry out empirical research into ecosystem damage (Kröger, 2019).…”

“…Nevertheless, after three decades of existence, it is observed that the local inhabitants began to develop productive activities incompatible with the original ideals defined in the resource use management plan of the RESEXs (Gomes et al, 2012;Vadjunec et al, 2009). In other words, local inhabitants that were focused on the harvest of non-timber forest products, and in subsistence agriculture, were switching to other activities that are not environmently friendly such as ranching (Kröger, 2019;.…”

Brazilian public institutions have difficulties in building relationships of trust that truly promote sustainable development. This study proves that the Extractive Reserves (RESEX) socio-environmental crisis occurs due to the interdependent relationship that exists between environmental, economic, social groups and institutional organizations. The study concludes that the implementation of public policies regarding health, education, transportation, communication, technical assistance, energy, as well as the current revenues from the productive activities of extractivism, agriculture, and cattle ranching was ineffective, because the state did not cooperate with strategies to alleviate the conflict between conservation and development.

Resumo O estudo da evolução temporal do uso e ocupação do solo em unidades políticas administrativas auxilia o processo de caracterização do espaço geográfico ao longo do tempo e aprimora a compreensão e o planejamento territorial. Este trabalho teve como objetivo a análise espaçotemporal das mudanças do uso do solo entre os anos 2000 a 2016 no Estado do Maranhão. O estado em estudo possui aproximadamente sete milhões de habitantes, sendo o quarto estado mais populoso do nordeste brasileiro. Localiza-se em uma área de transição entre as regiões Amazônica (úmida) e Nordeste (semiárida), favorecendo grandes contrastes anuais de precipitação e temperatura. A porção do estado que contígua o bioma amazônico-Amazônia legal, abrange uma área equivalente a 80% da área territorial do Estado, cerca de 264.000 km² que representa a região de transição entre a Amazônia e o Cerrado, fundamental para a conservação dos serviços ecossistêmicos e da biodiversidade. Para análise temporal da paisagem foram obtidos os dados de uso e ocupação do solo disponibilizados pelo IBGE, a base de dados e imagens foram geoprocessadas e georreferenciados no sistema de informações geográficas (SIG)-ArcGIS versão 10.3., na projeção geográfica de Universal Transversa de Mercator, Fuso 23 Sul, Datum SIRGAS 2000 e resolução de pixel de 30 m. Os resultados evidenciam a intensificação e expansão das atividades antrópicas no estado, com grande conversão das áreas de vegetação nativa por áreas agropecuária. Foi observada uma grande redução da Amazônia e aumento do uso da pastagem e na vegetação campestre, vegetação

“…Yet, the conservation of A. velocicantus , and of regional biodiversity in general, is not guaranteed. Deforestation in this part of Amazonia, including in conservation units, has increased with the expansion of illegal logging, cattle ranching, and agriculture ( Kröger, 2020 ; Montibeller et al, 2020 ). Moreover, deforestation and degradation rates in Amazonia are increasing substantially due to the anti-environmental agenda of the current Brazilian government ( Ferrante & Fearnside, 2019 ; Kröger, 2020 ).…”

Nurse frogs (Aromobatidae: Allobates) are probably the most extensively studied genus by taxonomists in Brazilian Amazonia. The southwestern portion of Amazonia is the most species-rich: as many as seven species may occur in sympatry at a single locality. In this study, we describe a new species of nurse frog from this region. The description integrates data from larval and adult morphology, advertisement calls and DNA sequences. Allobates velocicantus sp. nov. is distinguished from other Allobates mainly by the absence of hourglass-shaped dark marks on the dorsum and dark transverse bars on the thigh; a throat that is white centrally and yellow marginally; basal webbing on toes II and III; finger I longer than finger II; and an advertisement call composed of 66–138 pulsed notes with a note duration of 5–13 ms, inter-note intervals of 10–18 ms and a dominant frequency of 5,512–6,158 Hz. Tadpoles of the new species have 3–4 short, rounded papillae on the anterior labium, 16–23 papillae on the posterior labium, and a labial keratodont row formula 2(2)/3(1). This is the fifth species of Allobates described from the state of Acre, southwestern Brazilian Amazonia.
