description Active management has been touted as a desirable option for endangered species that are commercially valuable. The case presented here is about the Jalisco pine (Pinus jaliscana Pérez de la Rosa), an endangered species of Mexico. This pine is an important component in the production of wood within a protected natural area. The historical record of the selected study case, a forest dominating P. jaliscana, shows that the events that led to this species be listed, occur in populations far from where the species is subject to commercial extraction programs. A monitoring and evaluation network has been set up to monitor responses to treatments from a silvicultural regime designed to overcome the anthropogenic stressors. Available results indicate that the silvicultural regime is driving the forest away of the commercial objectives and of the recovery of the species in the territory of its geographical distribution. The message in this research is that even if conservation measures were designed to effectively correct the human causes of the deterioration and potentiality of some species at risk, the unique details that prevail in each habitat corner can create peculiar scenarios, where general rules must be adjusted.

El manejo activo ha sido promocionado como una opción deseable para aquellas especies en peligro de extinción que son comercialmente valiosas. Aquí se presenta el caso del pino jalisciense (Pinus jaliscana Pérez de la Rosa), una especie en peligro de extinción de México. Este pino es un componente importante de la producción maderable al interior de un área natural protegida. El registro histórico del caso de estudio, que es un bosque dominado por P. jaliscana, muestra que los eventos que determinaron su protección legal, ocurren lejos de los aprovechamientos de esta especie. Una red de monitores busca captar el efecto de las labores silvícolas diseñadas para neutralizar los factores antrópicos estresantes. La evidencia obtenida sugiere que el régimen silvícola actual está alejando al bosque de los objetivos comerciales y de la recuperación de la especie en su zona de distribución. El mensaje en esta investigación es que, aún si las medidas de conservación fueran diseñadas para una eficaz corrección de las causas humanas del deterioro y potencialidad de alguna especie en riesgo, los detalles únicos que prevalecen en cada rincón de hábitat pueden crear escenarios peculiares, donde las reglas generales deben ser ajustadas.  Instituto de Ecología, A.C. 2018-06-15 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evaluado por pares application/pdf application/xml https://myb.ojs.inecol.mx/index.php/myb/article/view/e2421535 10.21829/myb.2018.2421535 Madera y Bosques; Vol. 24 No. 2 (2018): Summer 2018 On line first Madera y Bosques; Vol. 24 Núm. 2 (2018): Verano 2018 2448-7597 1405-0471 spa https://myb.ojs.inecol.mx/index.php/myb/article/view/e2421535/1770 https://myb.ojs.inecol.mx/index.php/myb/article/view/e2421535/1799 Derechos de autor 2018 Madera y Bosques
