1 TIPA ASSESSMENT: Ziama Classified Forest, Macenta ABSTRACT The Ziama Massif is a rich matrix of lowland and submontane forest punctuated by granite inselbergs. This supports a wide range of plant species including global endemic species (Mikaniopsis camarae and Inversodicraea pepehabai) and 33 range restricted species. There are significant populations of threatened plant species found here. It is one of the largest areas of intact sub-montane forest in the country and a significant area of lowland rainforest which is rare in West Africa. Charlotte Couch and Martin
2 TIPAs Report: Ziama Classified Forest, Macenta IPA criteria under which the site qualifies: A (i,ii,iii,iv), B (ii), C (ii,iii) IPA ASSESSMENT RATIONALE The Ziama mountain range comprises of a rich matrix of sub-montane forest punctuated by granite inselbergs, grading into lowland evergreen forest. This supports a wide range of plant species including 2 global endemic species (Mikaniopsis camarae and Inversodicraea pepehabai) and 33 range-restricted species. There are significant populations of threatened plant species found here. It is one of the largest areas of intact sub-montane forest in the country and a significant area of lowland rainforest, albeit disturbed. Ziama has several villages within the southern, lowland forest portion, and there are concerns over forest clearance both recent and during past periods of instability. Although Ziama is already a biosphere reserve there are no specific management actions for plant species. SITE OVERVIEW Site Name: Ziama Classified Forest Country: Guinea Central co-ordinates: N, W Altitude minimum: 450m Administrative region: Nzérékoré, Macenta Area (km 2 ): (Protected Planet dataset) Altitude maximum: 1250m SITE DESCRIPTION Ziama consists of a mountain range aligned approximately south-west to north-east with nationally important quantities of sub-montane forest and granite inselbergs with grassland. On both sides of the mountain range there are areas of lowland evergreen forest, also of national importance. The area is crossed by rivers with white water, a unique habitat for Podostemaceae species. Image from Google Earth showing the proposed IPA site based on the existing protected area (boundary from Protected Planet dataset)
3 BOTANICAL SIGNIFICANCE Due to the variation and intactness of the vegetation types in this area, there is an exceptional botanical richness in Ziama CF. Numerous rare, threatened and/or endemic plant species occur in here such as Tarenna hutchinsonii and Gymnosiphon samoritoureanus in the lowland forest and Inversodicraea pepehabai an endemic species to the fast flowing rivers. GENERAL HABITAT AND GEOLOGY DESCRIPTION Ziama consists of a granitic mountain range, mostly covered in lowland and sub-montane forest. The granite inselbergs have a more open vegetation with woodland, wooded grassland, grassland, and open rocky areas. The lowland forest areas surrounding the mountain range are on unknown substrate. CONSERVATION ISSUES In the lowland forest area there are villages enclaved and there have been concerns about forest clearance. Large areas of lowland have been converted into monospecific tree plantations usually of Terminalia sp. In the sub-montane forest there are plantations of tea and cinchona, there are concerns that these may restart production. Ziama is presumably frequently visited by local hunters, which will have reduced the density of many animal species, and this in turn could negatively affect some plant species. PROTECTED AREA STATUS AND MANAGEMENT Man and Biosphere Reserve (Massif du Ziama), designated in A management plan exists for this area, but the extent is unknown. It is out of date (Birdlife International Assessment, 2007) and not well implemented. THREATS Agriculture: clearing for farming and plantations has occurred in the protected area. Wood cutting and harvesting: wood cutting on a subsistence level. THREAT LEVEL: Medium
