“…The climate is hot and humid, with a rainy season (from January to June) and a dry season (from July to December) [8][9]. The vegetation is composed of moderately preserved mangrove forest with species such as Rhizophora mangle, Avicennia germinans and Laguncularia racemosa [10](Figure 1).…”

19An outbreak of human rabies transmitted by hematophagous bats occurred in 2018 in the 20 state of Pará, Brazil, eastern Amazon, after 14 years with no record of the disease. It is 21 necessary to understand the epidemiological characteristics of these attacks to protect the 22 local population. This study aimed to characterize attacks of humans by vampire bats in 23 the municipality of São João da Ponta, Pará state, Brazil, from 2013 to 2015. All 24 individuals attacked by bats who sought medical care during the study period (n=5) were 25 identified in the Notifiable Diseases Information System (SINAN) database and answered 26 a questionnaire about the circumstances of the attack. Using snowball sampling, seed 27 cases identified other individuals who were attacked in the same period but did not seek 28 medical care (n=61), totalizing 66 people attacked in the same period. The interviewees 29 were male (92.4%), adults between 20 and 50 years old (69.6%) and had completed 30 elementary education (86.3%). Most were rural residents (92.4%) and crab fishermen 31 (79.3%). The interviewees (92.4%) identified the mangrove of the Mãe Grande de Curuçá 32 extractive reserve as an area conducive to attacks by vampire bats, where groups of 33 fishermen sometimes concentrate for days for crab fishing, often living in improvised 34 dwellings without walls and covered by tarps or straw (88.8%). The wounds were single 35 bites (71.2%) and were located on the lower limbs (93.9%). Overall, 42.4% of participants 36 had been bitten more than four times throughout their life (range 1-23 attacks). 37Participants were unaware of the risk of contracting rabies by the bite (95.4%). Using São 38 João da Ponta as a model, this study shows that bat attacks are an essentially occupational 39 problem in the study region. Indeed, for each reported attack, there are 12.2 unreported 40 cases. It is necessary to develop strategies to reach this population for prophylactic 41 treatment. 42 43 Author Summary 44 45 Different from which occurs worldwide in relation to rabies transmission, in Amazon 46 region, vampire bat is involved on direct transmission of rabies virus to humans when 47 searching for bloodmeal. It is common in the state of Pará, Eastern Amazon, large areas 48 inhabited near forests and mangroves. People living there use forest natural resources as 49 a way of income and sustenance and these working conditions is what our study points 50 out as an important factor for aggressions predisposition. Here this subject is shown as an 51 occupational problem. This study also quantified for the first time underreported human's 52 aggressions by bats in Amazon, using the snowball sampling, which valued the 53 relationship between individuals to reach the target population. Based on these results, 54 rabies surveillance may direct actions for prevention and health education for these 55 individuals, including changes in notifications forms and suggesting pre-exposure 56 prophylaxis in vaccination calendar of the Brazilian Ministry of Health...

“…The overall reduction in average diameter across all three species and the lower average height and diameter nearer the creek suggest that trees with larger trunks are logged selectively in this area. Deus et al (2003) reported wood extraction from this mangrove area, and all three species are used for firewood and charcoal (Lacerda and Schaeffer-Novelli 1999;Marcelino et al 1999;Walters et al 2008;Carneiro et al 2010;Meireles 2016).…”

Structure of a disturbed mangrove in the Rio Parnaíba delta, Piauí, northeast Brazil

Phytosociological analysis was used to quantify the structure of a disturbed mangrove next to a tidal creek of the Rio Igaraçu, Piauí, northeast Brazil, and comparison was made with a survey made fourteen years earlier. Thirty 10×10 m plots were demarcated in three areas of ten plots each. Height and circumference of trees of circumference at breast height ≥ 15 cm were measured in 285 individuals of Avicennia germinans (L.) L., Laguncularia racemosa (L.) C.F.Gaertn. and Rhizophora mangle L. Height ranged from 1.5−15 m (mean 4.4 m) and diameter from 4.8−28.7 cm (mean 7.2 cm). Avicennia and Laguncularia showed the highest parameter values (importance values 52% and 44%, respectively). Furthest from the creek and subject to less frequent tidal flooding, only Avicennia occurred, shorter (mean height 3.8 m) and fewer (density 130 ind ha−1) than elsewhere. In the central area (density 1240 ind ha−1) Avicennia dominated Laguncularia (importance values 53% vs. 47%). All species occurred nearest the creek (density 1480 ind ha−1, importance values Laguncularia 47%, Avicennia 46%, Rhizophora 7%), and heights and diameters were lower. Changes from a previous study suggest selective logging of larger individuals nearer the creek, especially Rhizophora, favouring regeneration of Laguncularia.

How are legal matters related to the access of traditional knowledge being considered in the scope of ethnobotany publications in Brazil?

et al. 2015

Legal measures, such as the use of free or prior and informed consent, return of research results to communities (which can be understood as "sharing of benefits, " according to Brazilian legislation), and research authorization by governmental bodies, are mentioned and regulated in various documents, either governmental or specific, within the area of ethnobiology. This study aims to explore how these matters are considered in the scope of published ethnobotany articles in Brazil, as well as whether the creation of the Provisional Measure 2.186-16/2001 has contributed to the national advance of these matters. The methodology comprised a literature review of articles focusing on medicinal and food plant resources in the prominent Brazilian journals which publish ethnobotany studies. From 137 articles analyzed, 8 mentioned the return of research results to the community; 21 explicitly cited the use of free or prior and informed consent; and 13 mentioned the authorization of governmental bodies. We expect that the present study will contribute to the debate regarding the necessity of reformulation of the current system, which would guarantee a more effective rapport between the government, researchers, local communities, and society and contribute to the development of ethnobotany in Brazil.
