This paper analyzes the impact of infrastructure investment on Spanish economic growth between 1850 and 1935. Using new infrastructure data and VAR techniques, this paper shows that the growth impact of local-scope infrastructure investment was positive, but returns to investment in large nation-wide networks were not significantly different from zero. Two complementary explanations are suggested for the last result. On the one hand, public intervention and the application of non-efficiency investment criteria were very intense in large network construction. On the other hand, returns to new investment in large networks might have decreased dramatically once the basic links were constructed.

Data concerning the effect of temperature on different physiological parameters of an invasive species can be a useful tool to predict its potential distribution range through the use of modelling approaches. In the case of the Argentine ant these data are too scarce and incomplete. The aim of the present study is to compile new data regarding the effect of temperature on the oviposition rate of the Argentine ant queens. We analysed the oviposition rate of queens at twelve controlled temperatures, ranging from 10ºC to 34ºC under different monogynous and polygynous conditions. The oviposition rate of the Argentine ant queens is affected by temperature in the same manner, independently of the number of queens in the nest. The optimal temperature for egg laying was 28ºC, and its upper and lower limits depended on the degree of polygyny

En agosto de 1868 un equipo de geómetras de la Junta General de Estadística, dirigido por José Giralt Torner, inició los trabajos de campo necesarios para proceder a una representación cartográfica fiable del Real Sitio de Riofrío (Segovia). El levantamiento formaba parte de un proyecto más ambicioso, que tenía por objeto el inventario y deslinde del patrimonio territorial de la Corona. Los planos formados por los geómetras de la Junta de Estadística, que se conservan inéditos en el archivo del Instituto Geográfico Nacional, constituyen un conjunto documental de notable valor geohistório, sin posible parangón entre las fuentes iconográficas del siglo XIX. Este artículo, que se apoya esencialmente en fuentes primarias, da cuenta de la cartografía conservada, describe la técnica de levantamiento, e identifica a los protagonistas de tales trabajos.
