Avoided Deforestation

O propósito deste artigo é sistematizar a participação de povos indígenas no sistema financeiro ambiental. Foram investigados meios de como povos indígenas poderiam participar do sistema financeiro ambiental com ênfase nos mercados de créditos de carbono. O deflorestamento impedido (avoided deforestation) é um mecanismo gerador de créditos de carbono. Povos indígenas, por preservarem as terras – no caso, florestas - onde vivem poderiam prestar serviços ambientais no mercado voluntário de créditos de carbono. Palavras-chave: povos indígenas; deflorestamento impedido; créditos de carbono.

New Distribution

We present new distribution records for Topaza pella (Linnaeus, 1758) in the southern reaches of the Amazon Basin in Brazil. The two new localities presented for the species elucidate its range in southern Pará and northern Mato Grosso states, and in consideration of recent records elsewhere south of the Amazon River, suggest that the species is widely distributed across suitable habitat throughout the Brazilian Amazon.
