Le Crétacé terminal de Beira Litoral, Portugal: remarques stratigraphiques et écologiques, étude complémentaire de Rosasia soutoi (Cbelonii, Bothremydidae)

The synthetic study of the uppermost Cretaceous of the Beira Litoral (fauna, floral confirms its upper Campanian-Maastrichtian age. It shows the presence of a tropical to subtropical climate in an area constituted by a low coastal plain only occasionally linked to the sea, saturared with fresh water and possessing accordingly, a predominantely freshwater fauna (Viso, Aveiro); this plain changed towards the interior into a drier more forested zone with a more abundant terrestrial fauna which includes mammals (Taveiro). A thorough study of the chelonian Rosasia, abundant on the coastal plain, was made possible thanks to the discovery of a skull: it demonstrates that the genus belongs to the family Bothremydidae, revalided here. The composition of this family is presented, its phylogenetic and paleobiogeographic relation with the other pleurodires are analyzed, and its diagnosis established. The family is constituted of three groups; Rosasia belongs to one of rhese, the Bothremys group.

Présence de Cuon alpinus europaeus BOURGUIGNAT, 1868 (Mammalia, Carnivora) dans le Pléistocène du Portugal

A fragment of the lower jaw of cuon (Cuon alpinus europaeus BOURGUIGNAT, 1868) found at gruta do Escoural is studied. It is the first occurrence recorded for the Pleistocene of Portugal.

Les plus anciens mammifères terrestres du Miocène marin de Lisbonne - le gisement du Km 10

For the first time, small mammals were found at the earliest marine level in the northeastern part of the lower Tagus basin, to the NE of Lisbon. At this new locality, at the 10 kilometer of the Lisbon-Oporto A1-IP1 highway,conglomerates yielded, along with marine fossils, more or less abraded teeth and bones from insectivores,lagomorphs, rodents and small artiodactyls (sec Tableau 1). Age may he ascribed to the lower Miocene, MN 2b Neogene mammal unit (about 22 My), but an early MN 3 age cannot be entirely excluded. That corresponds to latest Aquitanian (or less probably earliest Burdigalian) (sec Tableau 2). This is the first hitherto found locality with small mammals of this age as far as Portugal is concerned, as well as the oldest locality so far known in the Tagus basin. Km 10 is somewhat older than the localities of Universidade Católica and Avenida do Uruguay in Lisbon (ANTUNES & MEIN, 1986). Hence we can rather accurately date the age of the first marine transgression in the northeastern part of the lower Tagus basin. This shows that in this region there are no marine equivalents of the "Venus ribeiroi beds" (Aquitanian,Division 1 of the Lisbon Miocene series). Correlation between this unit and the uppermost levels of the essentially paleogene "Complexo de Benfica" may be possible. Fossils at km 10 point out to shallow, coastal, highenergy marine environments. Sedimentological features are compatible with this model. Dry land and swamps with brackish (or ev en fresh) waters were present nearby. From those areas came remains of mammals, crocodylians, as well as oysters and charophytes that were later transported to the sea. Sea was warmer than the extant Atlantic at the same latitudes, even if conditions were not strictly tropical then. These conditions surely influenced climate in the nearby regions. Ecological data concerning mammalian faunas distinctly point out to nearby forest-rich environments, much more so than for Universidade Católica and Avenida do Uruguay localities, from where drier, even steppe environment forms largely prevail.

Le gisement de Asseiceira, Portugal (Miocène supérieur) Données complémentaires sur Freiria de Rio Maior

A new upper Miocene locality at Asseiceira (Rio Maior), near the top of the "Calcários de Almoster e Santarém" unit (Almoster and Santarém limestones) is studied. Animal and plant fossils are described. Comparisons are drawn to other localities related to the same unit: Freiria and Azambujeira (middle and upper levels, both with large mammals). Small mammals from Asseiceira and Freiria point out to a rather old age amidst the upper Vallesian, MN 10 mammal-unit. This gives a fairly accurate datation for the "Calcários de Almoster e Santarém" and for the short time span of the corresponding sedimentation. Climate was warm and quite dry, with contrasting seasons and arid events. During upper Vallesian times, climate in Iberian Peninsula was varied but drier than in France, and specially so in the inner basins. However in Portugal and in Catalonia climate would he less different in comparison with that of the Rhône basin. Environmental evolution has been important: at Freiria and Azambujeira (middle level) there were mainly shallow lacustrine environments that received ressurgence waters from the nearby "Maciço calcário". Humid areas were closely surrounded by dense forests and these by broader and drier savanna or steppe areas. Still later, carbonate sedimentation ended. For some time there was still a river system with oxbows; humid areas probably were decreasing in favour of surrounding, rather dry environments. This study stressed the nced for revision of the geology of the region of Rio Maior and for a new geological mapping of that area. Environmental evolution has been important: at Freiria and Azambujeira (middle level) there were mainly shallow lacustrine environments that received ressurgence waters from the nearby "Maciço calcário".

Nouvelles données sur le Miocène moyen marin ("Sallomacien") de Gironde (Bassin d'Aquitaine-France) Approche des paléoenvironnements New data about the maine Middle Miocene ("Sallomacian") of Gironde (Aquitaine Basin); paleoecological outline

The Mid Miocene marine formations of Salles area (former "Sallomacian" stage) have been studied again from numerous outcrops and cores. The deep structural framework influences notably of the characteristics and distribution of the deposits, which are neritic. The stratigraphy is stated precisely thanks to the planktonic fauna and floradetailed examination (probably Serravallian zones NN6 - N12). Several paleobiofacies are reconstituted from the rich invertebrate faunas, which give also paleoclimatic data.

Discovery of a fifth metapodial of the Creodont Hyaenodontidae Hyainailouros sulzeri at Quinta da Farinheira (Chelas), near Lisbon (Portugal) in the beginning of the Middle Miocene.

Biostratigraphie et paléoécologie des peuplements d'ostracodes dans le Domérien du Bassin Lusitanien, Portugal

The Domerian sections from the Lusitanian Basin of São Pedro de Muel, Rabaçal and Tomar have provided us with more than 1100 Ostracods belonging from 18 genus and about 48 species. The faunal diversity and density of the associations decrease in space (from Tomar to Rabaçal and São Pedro de Muel) and time, with favourable environments for the proliferation of Ostracods at the lower part of the sections (Stokesi subzone) and more hostile at the upper part (Ragazzonii subzone). The Monestieri and Nitescens horizons and the Subnodosus subzone are characterized by a typical assemblage of Ostracods. The palaeoecological Ostracod indexes reveal the fluctuations of the oxygenation, temperature, depth and hydrodynamism of the water, on the different sections and on the whole platform. They display a diachronous cooling in the Lower Domerian series. In the upper part of the Middle and in the Upper Domerian, the deeper, less oxygenated and cooler waters prevent the development of the Ostracod faunas.

Présence de Palaeoperdix media (Aves, Galliformes, Phasianidae) et d'autres oiseaux dans le Miocène du Portugal

A distal part of tibiotarsus from Charneca do Lumiar (Langhian, MN5) is identified as Palaeoperdix media, formerly known as Miophasianus medius. This species is thus known on a large area of the Palearctic province, from Portugal to Poland, and from the beginning of the Middle Miocene (MN 5) to the beginning of the Upper Miocene (MN9). An indeterminate, Gruid from Quinta das Pedreiras (Lower Langhian, MN4) and a few marine birds' remnants from Penedo Norte (Burdigalian) have been recognized.

A formação de professores para o ensino da Matemática no ensino básico a alunos com deficiência visual

Resumo: Este estudo surge no âmbito do Mestrado em Reabilitação na Especialidade de Deficiência Visual ministrado em conjunto pelas Faculdades de Ciências Médicas e Motricidade Humana. Na dissertação intitulada Formação de Professores para o Ensino da Matemática no Ensino Básico a Alunos com DV foi desenvolvida uma investigação, incidindo sobre a temática atrás referida. Na primeira parte apresenta-se uma revisão de literatura, onde se exploram vários conceitos relevantes como a deficiência visual, o currículo de matemática no Ensino Básico, as adaptações curriculares dos alunos com DV, as tecnologias de apoio e a Formação dos Professores, entre outros. Na segunda parte apresentam-se as fundamentações teóricas que subjazem à escolha da metodologia de investigação e instrumentação bem como a descrição dos procedimentos de investigação. Participaram neste estudo 52 professores de Matemática dos três ciclos do ensino básico, que tinham alunos cegos ou com baixa visão nas suas turmas. Os dados foram recolhidos através de um questionário aplicados aos professores. Na terceira parte apresentam-se alguns resultados desta pesquisa. Relativamente à Formação de Professores, sendo N= 52, no que diz respeito à Deficiência Visual, a maioria dos professores (58%) diz não ter conhecimento da mesma e 40% dos professores diz ter algum conhecimento sobre a deficiência visual. Destes professores, grande parte referiu não considerar suficiente a informação recebida, pelo que concluímos ser pertinente a proposta de cursos versando a formação de professores em Deficiência Visual. Conclui-se também que os professores sentem dificuldades com os materiais e equipamentos disponíveis embora refiram que tivessem tido alguma informação sobre os mesmos.----------------------------------------- ABSTRACT: This study is the subject of the Master Course on the Specialty of Visual impaired given by both the Faculties of Ciências Médicas and Motricidade Humana. In the dissertation, the title of Which is Vocational Training of Teachers for the Mathematies teaching in the Basic Compulsory education to students with Visual impaired inside of the thematic behind referred. In the first part it is presented a literature revision, where some concepts are explored like the visual impaired, the curriculum of mathematics in the Basic Compulsory Education, the curriculum adaptations to the pupils with visual impaired, the technologies of support and the vocational training of the teachers, among others. In the second part we can recognize the theoretical recitals that support the choice of the research methodology and the whole instrumens meedes as well as the description of the research procedures. 52 professors of Mathematics from the three cycles of basic compulsory education participated in this study, they had blind pupils or with low vision in their classes. The data had been collected through a questionnaire applied to the teachers. In the third part, we come to some results of this research. In what concerns the vocational training of the teachers being N= 52, the majority of them (58%) says not to have knowledge of it and 40% of them says that they have some knowledge on the visual impaired. Among, a great part mentioned not having received sufficient information, as we conclude to be pertinent the proposal of courses makina the vocational training of teachers in visual impaired a reality. One also concludes that the teachers have difficulties with the materials and available equipment even though they mention to have had some information about them.
