The presentation focused on the characterization of subsistence rural systems within the natural area of distribution of A. guatemalensis; and the assessment of the importance of utilisation of this species for local livelihoods strategies within the peasant economies of the region. Results indicated: scarce evidence (11%) of linkages between A. guatemalensis and income sources; linkages between forest ecosystems and small-scale agriculture (litter and firewood); and significant dependency on forest related income for subsistence purposes.
