Africa

This report is the seventh iteration of the biennial listing of a consensus of the 25 primate species considered to be among the most endangered worldwide and the most in need of conservation measures. The list includes 5 species from Africa, 6 from Madagascar, 9 from Asia, and 5 from the Neotropics. This publication includes comprehensive information about the threats facing these primates, with bibliographic references cited in the text.

This book describes how the four-year GEF-funded project “Removing Barriers to Invasive Plant Management in Africa” was instrumental in developing ways of limiting the severe ecological, social and economic impacts in different parts of Africa of a number of particularly devastating alien plant invaders.
