Introduction

We are pleased to produce a report on the ex situ conservation of the rare and threatened
Cuban flora in Botanic Gardens, together with a recently updated list of endangered taxa. A
previous list was circulated to members of the IUCN Botanic Gardens Conservation
Co-ordinating Body in August 1985 and much of the knowledge of Cuban species in botanic
gardens cultivation has been gained from responses provided to that survey. We are most
grateful to all the Garden Directors who responded to that questionnaire. To date, a list of rare
and threatened Cuban plants has been distributed by IUCN to about 300 botanic gardens
worldwide. Nevertheless if readers of this report know of important collections of Cuban
plants in cultivation which have not been included in the results presented here we would be
very pleased to have this information.

During 1988 Dra Angela Leiva and the staff of the Jardin Botanico Nacional, Cuba also
supplied a list of the native plants contained in their collection, as well as providing many
corrections and additions to the threatened plants list for the country. For this assistance we
are very grateful. Thus, this list includes a complete compilation of the rare and threatened
endemics and their conservation status as are currently known. The threatened plants list has
been compiled from the database of the Threatened Plants Unit of the World Conservation
Monitoring Centre and the records of species in cultivation from the associated database of the
IUCN Botanic Gardens Conservation Secretariat.

We have presented the full Cuban threatened plants list in this report, in the form of a
questionnaire, so that botanic gardens which hold stocks of Cuban plants will be enabled in
future to copy the list for annotation to be returned to the Secretariat so that we can constantly
update and add to the information we hold on the plants from this archipelago.

As Dra Leiva outlines in her articles included in this publication, the native flora of Cuba is
very rich. The list we present here contains over 800 taxa, of which, to date, only 55 are
known to be in cultivation in the Gardens we have surveyed. Of those, 44 are cultivated at the
Jardin Botanico Nacional, Cuba and 33 in only one botanic garden. It must obviously therefore
become a priority in the coming years for botanic gardens worldwide to assist their efforts and
cultivate more of these important but declining endemics and ensure their adequate distribution
to other institutions. The Jardin Botanico Nacional, Cuba is generously offering to distribute
its duplicate material as seeds to other botanic gardens and Garden Directors are invited to
write to Dra Leiva if they are keen to cultivate any of the species marked + in the list. As well
as that, a further list of species available for exchange from Cuba is given in Botanic Gardens
Conservation News, 1(3), page 58. It includes several species of palm offered as wild collected
seed.

Acknowledgements
We are very grateful to Dra Angela Leiva for her assistance and advice during the preparation
of this report, without which it could not have been produced. We also acknowledge with

thanks the assistance given by Christine Leon and Steve Davis of the Threatened Plants Unit of
the World Conservation Monitoring Centre for their valuable collaboration.

Background

The island of Cuba covers an area of 114,524 sq. km and has a population of about 10 million.
Its vegetation is semi-desert of thornbush and savannah vegetation at lower altitudes with
siliceous savannah in the west. In the mountains, evergreen and tropical cloud and rain forest
occur. Pine forests occur at the eastern and western parts of the island. The mountains reach
their highest altitute of about 2,000 m in the east and broadly occur in three separate regions in
the east, west and centre, separated by areas of lowland. Species-rich pine forests occur on
serpentine soils, with submontane rain forest along the north-east and semi-dry mountain
forest along the south-east coast, and mangrove and tropical salt marsh along the west coast
(Davis et al., 1986).

Further details on the Checklists and Floras published and threatened plants of Cuba are given
in Plants in Danger: What do we know?, Davis, S. ef al. 1986, published by IUCN, Gland,
Switzerlannd and Cambridge, U.K. and so will not be repeated here.

The IUCN Plant Red Data Book (Lucas, G. and Synge, H., 1978) contains information on two
Cuban species, Cereus robinii (Lemaire) L. Benson (Cactaceae) and Microcycas calocoma (Miq.)
A.DC. (Zamiaceae) the latter of which is endemic to the island.

Cuba has several botanic gardens which are active in plant conservation. The largest is the
Jardin Botanico Nacional, described in detail in Dra Leiva’s article reprinted here from Botanic
Gardens Conservation News 1(3). Other botanic gardens are:

Jardin Botanico de Cienfuegos, Apartado 414, Cienfuegos

This garden was established in -1902 and is 90 ha in area. It is government supported
and the collections are especially rich in specimens of woody Leguminosae, Palmae and
Moraceae.

Jardin Botanico de Copeinicii, Guisa, Bayamo, Granma Province

This garden was established in 1983 and is about 100 ha in area. Of this about 30% is
native seasonal evergreen forest. An adjacent reserve of 150 ha of similar vegetation has
recently been brought under the control of the garden. The garden is supported by the
Municipal Government of Guisa, with the scientific collaboration of the Jardin
Botanico Nacional.

Orquideario de Soroa, Universidad de Pinar del Rio, Candelaria, Pinar del Rio

This garden is about 3 ha in extent and specializes in the cultivation of orchids, both
native and otherwise. Its facilities include a specialized library, several shade houses
and a tissue culture unit. Scientific collaboration is carried out with the Jena Botanic
Gardens, G.D.R. and the Jardin Botanico Nacional.

We are also told that new botanic gardens are planned at Santiago de Cuba, Holguin, Las Tunas
and Sancti Spiritus in these province capitals, with the collaboration and advice of the Jardin
Botinico Nacional and the Institute of Ecology and Systematics of the Cuban Academy of
Sciences.

Plant Conservation in Cuba

The floristic richness and high endemism of the Cuban archipelago is well known. According
to recent reports (Borhidi and Muniz, 1983) the Cuban vascular flora embraces 6,700 species
(500 Pteridophytes and 6,200 Phanerophytes of which about 20 are Gymnosperms and the rest
Angiosperms), grouped in 1,300 genera and 181 families. A figure of 51% endemism has been
reported thus making about 3,100 endemic species. Moreover, Cuban natural ecosystems have
been strongly altered during the last 200 years; about 16% of its phanerogamic flora is
threatened and probably 2% is already extinct.

Before the first arrival of aboriginal people (about 4,000 years ago) primary forest ecosystems
covered more than 95% of the total area. High tropical forests probably accounted for 70-80%,
and the rest was occupied by low altitude broad-leaved forests, pine forests and other
vegetation types.

In the sixteenth century, the colonization of the country by Spaniards began. During the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, economical activity was negligible. It has been estimated
that in 1812, 90% of the territory was still covered by original forest. In 1900 this area had
diminished to 54%, mainly due to intensive cattle-raising, and sugar cane plantation. In 1926
only 23% of the surface was still covered by forests. In 1959, 14% of natural forest remained,
more or less undisturbed.

Among neotropical countries, Cuba occupies fourth place amongst those which have had drastic
and intensive destruction of natural environment; in this ranking Cuba is precededad by
Barbados, Haiti and Puerto Rico. About 90,000 square kms of forests were destroyed in the
course of five centuries. The early introduction of some invasive species such as Dichrostachys
cinerea and Syzygium jambos, had displaced native species in both low and high altitude
ecosystems (Del Risco, 1982). As is well known, island ecosystems are extremely vulnerable to
external effects. In the case of Cuba, this vulnerability is much more pronounced because,
among other reasons, its endemic flora is mostly adapted to extreme, oligotrophic biotopes and
hence the competitiveness of native organisms is diminished (Borhidi, 1985).

In the last decade, between 8 and 9% of the whole surface of the country has been proposed
for different degrees of protection. But too much still remains to be done for the system to
function efficiently.

In 1977 the National Committee for Protection of Environment and Conservation of Natural
Resources (COMARNA) was created. In every province and municipality there is a committee
attached to the local government with executive powers to decide on problems concerning
protection of environment and conservation. As well as this, a broadly based public
educational campaign is being developed. Since 1980, a new Law (No. 33) has been established
for the protection of the environment and rational use of natural resources. Several scientific
institutions carry out important research projects on the conservation of threatened ecosystems
and/or species.

Four Biosphere Reserves have been declared by UNESCO in Cuba covering very representative
areas of high plant diversity and endemism.

Nevertheless, the critical amount of destruction caused to Cuban natural ecosystems in the last
200 years, together with the real demographic and economic growth, and to some extent, by
the virtual absence of conservationist traditions, impose on Cuban scientists and government
authorities a great responsibility for the present and future preservation of Cuba’s natural
heritage. We are optimists and all know and remember that the quality of life of future
generations strongly depends on nature conservation, and it must be preserved and improved.

The National Botanic

olga Garden of Cuba

Dr Angela Leiva,

Boyeros, Ciudad Habana, Cuba

In 1967, the Cuban Government suggested to the University of Havana the development of a modern
botanic garden of national scope, recognizing the réle of such institutions as important tools for
education, scientific research and recreation. A year later, the general plan for the National Botanic
Garden was produced. A piece of good land, 600 ha. in size and covered with pasture and secondary
vegetation was earmarked to develop the ambitious project. It is located 25 km. south of the centre of
the capital, Sixteen years later, on 24th March 1984, the garden was opened to the public.

In Figure 1, the general layout of the Garden is shown. Emphasis has been placed upon world tropical
flora, but in particular, native flora and vegetation. Special attention is given to the development of a
native vascular plant collection, mainly arranged according to a phytogeographical approach. This
collection covers an area of 120 ha. It plays an important réle in research on our national flora, in ex situ
conservation of endangered species and in general education.

According to current research, the Cuban phanerogamic flora include a total of 181 families (none of
them endemic), about 1,300 genera (71 endemics) and approximately 6,140 species of native
phanerophytes from which 3,150 (51.3%) are endemic. For Pteridophytes, a conservative number of 480
species has been estimated.

From these, nearly 800 Cuban taxa, 700 phanerophytes (11.4% of the flora), and 100 pteridophytes
(21%) are under cultivation. The outdoor collection amounts to about 300 native taxa. The number of
threatened Cuban endemic taxa under cultivation is 55 (6% of the total).

One of the particularly impressive features of the Garden is the four hectares of thorny coastal thicket
vegetation in which an aesthetically pleasing rocky arrangement of shrubs, succulents and palms, evokes
for visitors the proximity of the sea. Interesting plants such as Spathelia vernicosa, Agave albescens,
Dendrocereus nudiflorus, Leptocereus wrightii, Coccothrinax guantanamensis, Calliandra colletioides, are
among more than a hundred species, which grow luxuriantly.

The dry forests that in nature occur inland from the coastal vegetation of Cuba are also represented.
One of the most outstanding species that can be seen there is the very rare Crescentia mirabilis.
Semi-deciduous forests contain very valuable species such as Mimosa catalinae, Hildegardia cubensis,
Hebestigma cubense, Bombacopsis cubensis which feature among nearly a hundred other species. The
microphyllous variant of these forests, rich in Bucida trees, Copernicia and Sabal palms which has been
established today has a very natural appearance.

Pine forests, with interesting elements such as Jacaranda arborea, Manilkara mayarensis, Coccothrinax
orientalis, Coccothrinax yuraguana and Colpothrinax wrightii, give a particular charm to this part of the
garden.

An area of no more than a hectare has been created with serpentinic soil and is now rich in about 200
species planted representative of serpentinic vegetation. Rare plants such as Sauvallella immarginata,
Moacroton revolutus, Gochnatia intertexta, Acacia daemon and Coccothrinax clarensis (all of them
threatened endemic species) are growing very well there (see Figure 2).

The Palmetum contains a good sample of Cuban palms, numbering around 40 taxa. The overall
collection of palms amounts to a total of 150 taxa (Figures 3 and 4).

Most of these collections of Cuban plants have been assembled during on-going exploration of Cuba
over the last two decades, as part of the flora research work.

It must be pointed out that it has been possible to cultivate large numbers of specimens of each species
by the extension of our garden to 600 hectares. Furthermore, for each native species we try to grow
specimens from different populations, thus minimizing the hazards to genetic diversity that are inherent
in ex situ conservation.

In this connection, the number of native species offered in our seed list from 1973 to 1988 has increased
steadily from 29 to 412.

Current research in the National Botanic Garden is focussed primarily on the study of our national
flora. The Garden’s herbarium contains 65,000 Cuban plants and 5,800 fungi, all collected after 1966.

The Plant Physiology Laboratory is concerned with investigation into propagation methods and
reproductive strategy of the threatened endemic cycad Microcycas calocoma. In situ experiments on
pollination, monitoring of seed formation, germination, in vitro propagation, and re-introduction into
the wild of young plants obtained by seed germination and in vitro embryo culture to enhance
populations in protected natural areas, are the main tasks thus so far achieved. As well as this, work has
been started to increase the number of threatened species under cultivation in the Garden.

To this end, the preparation of artificial conditions of soils, rainfall and shade are essential. Last March,
a new complex of display pavilions was opened. It is a building covering 3,300 square metres and
incorporating special environmental conditions, for example, high insolation and drainage for desert
plants, or a high degree of shade and humidity and special soils (including acidic soils) for rainforest
plants. This complex has enabled us to increase the number of taxa that can be cultivated in the
Garden. The very rich and endemic flora of Cuban rainforests can now be grown with success. By now
a total of 1,450 taxa representing 440 genera and 90 families are exhibited at the Pavilions, and we
anticipate that these figures will soon increase (Figure 5).

Computerization of records has been underway since the beginning of 1988 and the database is contains
in the order of 3,000 accessions. For the database we use a personal computer with hard disk storage
capacity of 20 Mb, and the D-Base III Plus system. As we have recently received the International
Transfer Format for Botanic Garden Records, any necessary adjustments are now being made.

The Cuban National Botanic Garden maintains a very fruitful collaboration in the form of a long-term
research project into Cuban flora with the Botanic Garden of Jena University, and the Arboretum of
Humboldt University in Berlin. A very intensive exchange of scientists, gardeners, plants and
experience has been conducted since 1975. More recently, an agreement has been signed with the
Cordoba Botanic Garden in Spain to collaborate in topics related to micropropagation techniques,
germplasm conservation, the cultivation of special groups of plants, and other subjects of mutual
interest.

We are involved in seed exchange with 265 other institutions in 42 countries. Our publication, Revista
del Jardin Botanico Nacional is sent to many institutions all over the world and appears three times a
year.

Currently, new projects for botanic gardens are being developed in the cities of Santiago de Cuba,
Holguin, Bayamo, Las Tunas and Sancti Spiritus. In each garden there is an emphasis on local flora and
vegetation, but in addition, there are collections of tropical flora, economic plants, ornamental plants,
historical or traditional gardening, greenhouses and shadehouses for cultivation and display, etc. In the
case of each of these five projects, work is undertaken in close collaboration with the National Botanic
Garden.

Two national meetings of Cuban Botanic Gardens have been held. The first took place in Cienfuegos
Botanic Garden in 1981 on the occasion of that Garden’s 80th Anniversary. The abstracts and papers
presented were published in the Revista del Jardin Botanico Nacional. The second meeting was held at
the National Botanic Garden itself in 1985. Nearly 80 people attended including representatives of
several Botanic Gardens in Mexico and the Dominican Republic.

The Cuban National Botanic Garden is actively working on the organization of a new Latin American
and Caribbean Section of [ABG which will be officially established in July of 1990 on the occasion of the
Vth Latin American Botanical Congress that will be held in Habana.

The Garden is open all year, Wednesday to Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Guided tours, leisure
conferences and an amusement park for children, are among the features available to visitors. The
Educational Programme includes visits of pupils from primary and secondary schools, television and
radio programmes. More than half a million visitors have visited the Garden since it was opened in 1984.
