Résumé : |
"As well as hopefully saving this Critically Endangered endemic species from extinction, the work proposed here would have several other positive out- comes:
• Strengthen links and communication between conservation agencies within the Mascarenes, which could be used as a pilot collaboration for similar species focused projects (cf: The Toromiro Management Group, Easter Island).
•Maximize the use of ex situ collections and expertise held by botanical gardens.
•Provide opportunities for training in grafting techniques for staff in Rodrigues.
•Engender optimism in those who face the daunting task of preventing the extinction of species and restoring habitats to the “earthly paradise” described by Leguat (1708).
•Raise awareness of plant conservation issues in the local community due to the cultural significance of the subject (an endemic species “rare plant rescue” project managed by local practitioners, both within Rodrigues, and elsewhere in the Mascarenes)." (source : auteur) |
