[hal-01254935] Revision of vernacular names for the freshwater fish of French Guiana
Mar 2, 2021 | 11:17 amThe fish fauna of French Guiana is one of the best described in the geographical area covering the Guiana Shield. Paradoxically, however, there is no summary document validated by ethnologists and specialized linguists that links the scientific names of the fish of this area to their vernacular names from the different language groups. In this paper, we compile the presently existing data on species and vernacular names collected over several decades in Creole, Amerindian (Kali’na, Palikur, Wayana, Wayãpi and Teko), Nenges or Maroons (Boni, Ndjuka and Sranan Tongo) languages as well as French and/or specialist aquarium terms and Brazilian Portuguese. Of the 416 fish species found in French Guiana, we can assign a common name to 85% of them by considering all these languages as a group. These common names can be more or less generic, covering a greater or lesser number of species that are similar or very close[…]

[hal-01761584] iDNA screening: Disease vectors as vertebrate samplers
Feb 5, 2021 | 16:22 pmIn the current context of global change and human-induced biodiversity decline, there is an urgent need for developing sampling approaches able to accurately describe the state of biodiversity. Traditional surveys of vertebrate fauna involve time-consuming and skill-demanding field methods. Recently, the use of DNA derived from invertebrate parasites (leeches and blowflies) was suggested as a new tool for vertebrate diversity assessment. Bloodmeal analyses of arthropod disease vectors have long been performed to describe their feeding behaviour, for epidemiological purposes. On the other hand, this existing expertise has not yet been applied to investigate vertebrate fauna per se. Here, we evaluate the usefulness of hematophagous dipterans as vertebrate samplers. Blood-fed sand flies and mosquitoes were collected in Amazonian forest sites and analysed using high-throughput sequencing of short mitochondrial markers. Bloodmeal identifications highlighted contrasting ecological features and feeding behaviour among dipteran species, which allowed unveiling arboreal and terrestrial mammals of various body[…]

[hal-01529019] Advocacy coalitions and protected areas creation process: Case study in the Amazon
Feb 5, 2021 | 11:10 amProtected areas are the cornerstones of conservation policies worldwide. However, only few researches are led to analyse the way they emerge, except for criticising top-down governmental choices. Yet, the historical approach and strategic analysis of public policy building over the long term allows a better understanding of the stakes of action capacity of these policies. We therefore mobilize the advocacy coalition framework to show that protected areas creation is always due to coalitions of actors who belong to different professional fields and act at different scales but nevertheless share common stakes. On the basis of a comparative study in French and Brazilian Amazon, we show that if all coalitions for protected areas share a common objective of limited deforestation, they are still very different according to the type of conservation they promote (strict biodiversity conservation, population-based conservation or sustainable forest management). We also show that the ability of the coalitions[…]

[hal-01791719] La route, facteur de développement socio-économique ? Une analyse des enjeux portés par les projets routiers en Guyane française
Feb 5, 2021 | 10:44 amL’article questionne les enjeux socio-économiques associés aux projets routiers portés en Guyane française, sept des chefs-lieux de communes sur les vingt-deux qu’elle compte n’étant aujourd’hui accessibles que par voie aérienne ou fluviale. Il met en évidence deux enjeux principaux, sur la base de l’examen des documents encadrant l’aménagement du territoire en Guyane : celui de la continuité territoriale régionale et celui de la maîtrise du foncier. Dans un second temps, en s’appuyant sur des travaux de terrain, l’article aborde deux cas d’étude à l’est (RN2 de Régina à Saint-Georges) et à l’ouest (route Saint-Jean/Apatou) de la Guyane, afin d’évaluer les effets des projets concernés par rapport à leurs objectifs initiaux. L’écart mesuré alimente la déconstruction d’un lien de causalité « route = développement » semblant pourtant acquis en Guyane au regard des documents de politique.

[hal-02895247] Managing and sharing multidisciplinary information in human-environment observatories: feedbacks and recommendations from the French DRIIHM network
Dec 14, 2020 | 16:38 pmThe LabEx DRIIHM is a research network that gathers together 13 Human-Environment Observatories (OHM) focused on anthropogenically modified socio-ecosystems in France and worldwide. Within the open science context, a Research Data Infrastructure (RDI) was implemented brick by brick to describe, visualize, and disseminate multidisciplinary long-tail datasets produced by the DRIIHM community. The RDI contains both tools and standards at the network scale, and specific tools at the individual observatory scale. This paper describes the building blocks of the RDI and analyses its strengths and challenges on the basis of engineer feedback and user surveys. Recommendations for improving the RDI, better measuring its effectiveness, and enhancing open science awareness, have been formalized for the SO-DRIIHM project that will start in 2020. Cross-disciplinary approaches using DataViz tools have emerged already, and these enrich the way in which scientific information is disseminated, and could raise new scientific issues.

Dec 14, 2020 | 16:38 pmPalikur Amerindians live in the eastern part of French Guiana which is undergoing deep-seated changes due to the geographical and economic opening of the region. So far, Palikur’s traditional ecological knowledge is poorly documented, apart from medicinal plants. The aim of this study was to document ethnobotanical practices related to traditional construction in the region.
