I. BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION
Huu Lien Nature Reserve (Lang Son province, Vietnam) was established in 1992 with 10.604 hectares in area. Its co-ordinates lie at 21037' – 21045'N, 106019' – 106026'E, 90km North of Hanoi. The Reserve has about 9734 hectares of limestone (91% area) and has many rare and valuable animal species such as Moschus berezovskii, Semnopithecus francoisi francoisi, Hylobates concolor, etc. There are 2,658 local people living here, consisting of Kinh, Tay and Nung ethnic groups and their livelihood depends on the forest. Community-based conservation is believed to be the best conservation method for these species and their propagation is also important economically. Such conservation methods will undoubtedly improve the livelihood of local communities in Vietnam [1]. Vegetation types: Green Broad-leaf closed tropical forest on low limestone mountains (Fig. 1-12) There are most kinds of vegetation in Huu Lien NR. First kind of vegetation is Green Broad-leaf closed forest which is the most on the base of limestone mountain (Fig. 13-20), on the side of limestone mountain (Fig. 21-31) and in the valley limestone mountain (Fig. 32-41 ) with 4 forest stratum and canopy coverage 80-100%. First forest (A1) stratum includes numerous trees which belong to different families and regularly 20 - 25m tall. Most of trees are evergreen, but participation of deciduous trees may be more or less considerable, particularly on south-faced slopes and on cliffs. Second forest (A2 – canopy) stratum includes trees 10 - 20m tall. Third forest (A3) stratum includes trees 6 - 10m tall. The end of forest stratum includes shrubs, herbs and regeneration tree 0.1 – 6m tall. Species listed below in Table 1 were observed as more common co-dominant of this kind of forest.

Second kind of forest is Green Broadleaved sparse tropical forest which is the most on the top and top ridge of limestone mountain (Fig. 42-49) and on cliff of limestone mountain (Fig. 55-50). Forest on tops of rocky hills and mountains become shorter and includes in its canopy stratum a number of specific tree species that regularly do not observed on hill slopes. Similar plant communities commonly may be observed on very steep rocky slopes and on cliffs of remnant limestone ridges. Main co-dominants of canopy stratum in such specific primary plant community that cover tops of rocky limestone mountains are listed below in Table 2.

In fragments of primary forest opened by forest fire or logging many weedy species appears quickly. They rapidly replace aboriginal primary forest dominants such species as Clausena sp. and Zanthoxylum avicennae DC. (Rutaceae), species of Callicarpa (Verbenaceae), Malotus (Euphorbiaceae) and some another representatives of secondary plant communities.

- Non-Timber Forest Product (NTFP) In Huu Lien NR, local people were exploiting Burretiodendron hsienmu so that they did not care to NTFP. But some local people still looking for Cupressus tonkinensis to collect root and young plant (Fig. 73-76). This species was a dominant species in limestone mountain in before 70 decade of last century and it were exploited for essential oil. There are 18 species of NTFP and were show detail in Table10. Of which 2 species were threatened, they are Meliantha suavis and Cupressus tonkinensis. - Vegetable plant group: Amorphophallus paeoniifolius: big tuber is used for food (Fig. 79-80), can cultivation; Erythropalum scandens: young leaf and young branch are used for food (Fig. 81-82), can cultivation; Meliantha suavis: young leaf and young branch are used for food (Fig. 83-85), can cultivation [7] - Medicine plant group: Stephania rotunda (Fig. 86-87), use part: tuber; Tacca chantrieri (Fig. 88), use part: tuber; Leonurus sibiricus (Fig. 89-90), use part: whole plant; Breynia fruticosa (Fig. 91), use part: leaf; Aglaonema siamense (Fig. 92-93), use part: whole plant; Helminthostachys zeylanica (Fig. 94-97), use part: tuber; Dischidia acuminata (98), use part: whole plant; Gynura crepidioides, , use part: leaf; Excoecaria cochinchinense, use part: leaf; Celosia argentea, use part: leaf and flower; Oroxylum indicum, use part: bark and young fruit.

3.3. Evaluating the extent of logging in the reserve In fact, there was not permitted for logging in Huu Lien NR but local people still steal logging defied obstacles of forest ranger. In before 70 decade of last century when Huu Lien was not Nature Reserve. Cupressus tonkinensis was a dominant species in this limestone mountain. About ten year later, almost big tree of this species was cut down for essential oil lead into near extinct in the wild. Up to now, the local people are still looking for remain root or small plant (Fig. 102-103).They used crowbars (Fig. 101) and TNT to dug and collected the remains of root (Fig. 104-113). Some time they burned the forest to find trace of old holes which had dug but still remained (Fig. 114-117). This activities had added to destroying the ecosystem and habitat of fauna and flora. The logging in Huu Lien NR in 80-90 decade of last century leaded the forest quantity were serious decreased. Almost of high value species were cut such as Fernandoa collignonii (Fig. 118-120), Chukrasia tabularis (Fig. 121-122). Only few individuals of those species were protected by some local people, but they are always threatened by steal logger.
When this project was carrying out in the NR, a lot of individuals of Burretiodendron hsienmu were cut, defied obstacles of forest ranger (Fig. 123-125; 128-129). They transport it by hand or motorcycles in light day with not any hindrance (Fig. 132-147). That produces were sold or built house. That were result of loose managed of Huu Lien NR Management Department. In Fig. 148, 149 show about local houses were built by only Burretiodendron hsienmu. The price of those species in 2009 were showed in Table 11. Besides that, other big tree were cut too such as Meliaceae, Anacardiaceae ... (Fig. 126 – 127; 130-131).

3.4. Distribution map of rare and threatened species - We recorded 25 very small trees of Cupressus tonkinensis living in the wild, of which 17 were growing well and 8 were bearing seed cones. They ranged from 0.3 to 3.5 m high. In addition, there were 2 trees had perished from forest fire made by local people (Fig. 157) and steal logger (Fig. 158). There were no regenerated trees. Cupressus tonkinensis only grows on slopes near top and top ridges of limestone mountain at elevation from 300 to 464 m a.s.l. (Fig. 150-161). They are always threatened by forest fires. Its conservation status is CR C2 a (i) according to the IUCN Red List Categories (Version 3.1 – 2001) and Guidelines for Using the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria Version 8.0 (March 2010). Detail information of all tree of Cupressus tonkinensis will be show in Table 12. Table 12: Some data of Cupressus tonkinensis was collected in the wild of study area

Building a community-based model for conservation: Practiced conservation of Cupressus tonkinensis - Ex-situ conservation Cupressus tonkinensis Propagation by seedling: On August 2009, we had tried propagation by seedling with more than 2,000 seeds (Fig. 165-166)but it were very difficult, only 9 seed germinated after 3 months (Fig. 167-169) and all of them grew up to near 6cm high after one year (169). Almost of seed were not have embryo. Propagation by cutting: From 9 to 14, August 2009 we propagated successful 517 (62.7%) cutting by Used Indole Butelic Acid (IBA) 1500ppm stimulus chemical (Fig. 170-173). The detail were showed in Table 14. Table 14: Propagation by cutting of Cupressus tonkinensis

In addition, we had guided for local people to propagation by cutting of this species (Fig. 177). Community-based model for conservation: Through our conservation activities such as field surveyed, propagated, organized workshop... the local people’s knowledge on botanical conservation had improved. Before this project finish, we had transport all of cutting to local forest-garden in Huu Lien NR on November 2010. This is best way for Cupressus tonkinensis cutting because it will be looked after and protected by local people. This is first step for in-situ conservation.
IV. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION 4.1. Conclusion 4.1.1. Assessing the floral diversity of Huu Lien NR; evaluate the conservation status of rare and threatened species
- Flora diversity of Huu Lien NR: During our field work in Huu Lien Nature Reserve in 2009 and 2010, we had established 12 transects of more than 25 km long throughout the study site. We had collected 340 number of label and more than 500 specimens. We recorded 192 species – 155 genus – 75 family – 3 phylum. In there, near 89% of Angiospermae, 10% of Pteridophyta, 1 % of Gymnospermae
- Conservation status of rare and threatened species: There are 13 threatened species added in Red List of Vietnam 2007 and Plant Red Data Book of Vietnam 2007 (Table 6). Of which 1 species in Critically, 3 species in Endangered; 9 species in Vulnerable and 3 threatened species added in IUCN Red List (Version 2010.4). In there, 1 species be Vulnerable level and 2 species be Lower Risk level
4.1.2. Evaluating the value of plant resources, including gene sources of rare and threatened species
There are 21 species (1%) in Huu Lien NR has high value of plant resources and gene sources. Of which 3 (0.16%) species has high value of Timber Forest Product (TFP) They are Fernandoa collignonii (Fig. 57-61), Chukrasia tabularis, Burretiodendron hsienmu, and 18 species has high value of Non-Timber Forest Product (NTFP).
4.1.3, Evaluating the extent of logging in the reserve
There was not permitted for logging in Huu Lien NR but local people still steal logging defied obstacles of forest ranger. The local people are still looking for remain root or small plant of Cupressus tonkinensis and cut of Fernandoa collignonii and Burretiodendron hsienmu
4.1.4. Distribution map of rare and threatened species
We recorded 25 very small trees of Cupressus tonkinensis living in the wild, of which 17 were growing well and 8 were bearing seed cones. We only recorded 2 big trees of living Chukrasia tabularis in the wild, all of them were growing well and protecting. Burretiodendron hsienmu distribute everywhere in limestone area of Huu Lien NR but almost they are small tree
4.1.5. Improving local people’s knowledge on botanical conservation through participatory conservation activities and consultative workshops
In 1st August 2010, we had organised a botanical conservation workshop with 25 participants in Huu Lien NR. (participation of collectors, users, traders, herbalists, and local, provincial authorities and forest ranger. We had presented about: Flora diversity of Huu Lien NR; Evaluating the conservation status of rare and threatened species; Vegetation map and distribution map of rare and threatened species; Evaluating the extent of logging in the reserve; Distribution and conservation of Cupressus tonkinensis; Propagation result and community-based model for conservation of Cupressus tonkinensis; Recommend appropriate conservation methods
4.1.6. Building a community-based model for conservation: Practiced conservation of Cupressus tonkinensis
- Ex-situ conservation Cupressus tonkinensis: Propagation by seedling: On August 2009, we had tried propagation by seedling with more than 2,000 seeds, only 9 seed germinated after 3 months and all of them grew up to 6cm high after one year. Almost of seed were not have embryo. Propagation by cutting: From 9 to 14, August 2009 we propagated successful 517 (62.7%) cutting by Used Indole Butelic Acid (IBA) 1500ppm stimulus chemical.
Community-based model for conservation: Through our conservation activities such as field surveyed, propagated, organized workshop... the local people’s knowledge on botanical conservation had improved. Before this project finish, we had transport all of cutting to local forest-garden in Huu Lien NR on November 2010. This is best way for Cupressus tonkinensis cutting because it will be looked after and protected by local people. This is first step for in-situ conservation. 4.2. Recommendation. - Improving the management and protection in Huu Lien NR, especial for global threatened species such as Cupressus tonkinensis; Burretiodendron hsienmu an Chukrasia tabularis. Continuing publish article to addition information for Government an manager - Continuing improving local people’s knowledge on botanical conservation - Continuing propagation by seedling and cutting of that species (Cupressus tonkinensis) - Continuing develop community-based model for conservation; in-situ and ex-situ conservation.
