edge effect. Thus, under the influence of the adjacent matrix, fragments undergo microclimatic alterations that accentuate changes in species composition and community structure. In order to better understand edge and matrix effects on the richness and abundance of edaphic arthropods, this study assessed: (a) the difference between habitat (fragment) and non-habitat (matrix); (b) whether there is a continuous interior-edge-matrix gradient; and (c) the difference between matrices for arthropod orders richness and abundance. We selected 15 landscapes, 5 of which contained a cerrado fragment surrounded by sugarcane cultivation, 5 with a cerrado fragment within eucalyptus and 5 with a cerrado fragment within pasture. In each landscape the soil fauna was collected along with the soil and then extracted with the aid of the modified Berlese-Tullgren funnel. We chose the orders Coleoptera, Collembola, Mesostigmata and Oribatida for analysis, and after separation of the individuals we used model selection analysis via AIC. The model type fragment x matrix was the most likely to explain richness, total and relative abundances of the four orders (wAICc between 0,6623 and 1,0). The model of edge distance (edge effect) was plausible to total abundance and relative abundance of Mesostigmata order (wAICc=0,2717 and 0,186). Local environmental variables (soil texture, temperature and relative humidity), and fragment size were also measured to avoid confounding factors and were not presented as plausible models to explain the patterns. So edaphic arthropods, despite protecting themselves under the ground, are extremely sensitive to fragmentation, even with the replacement of natural habitat by agricultural use, such as sugarcane, pasture and eucalyptus.

O solo do pólo cerâmico no município de Santa Gertrudes, SP, tem sido poluído há décadas por diversos elementos químicos, principalmente chumbo e zinco. Foram realizadas quatro coletas de amostras de solo, duas durante a época chuvosa e duas na seca, em cinco locais, de novembro de 2002 a junho de 2003, determinando-se temperatura, pH, teores de chumbo e zinco e a umidade do solo. Os fungos foram isolados pelo método de Warcup, modificado pelo preparo de suspensões aquosas de solo (1:10) e aplicação de 1 cm³ das suspensões sobre malte agar (2%), adicionado de Zn(NO3)2 e Pb(NO3)2 em concentrações crescentes: 0, 100, 200, 500 e 1.000 mg dm-3. Após cinco dias de incubação a 25 ºC, as colônias foram purificadas e identificadas. Foram obtidos 70 táxons de fungos anamorfos, com 70% de similaridade entre as micotas obtidas nos meios com os dois metais. Foram isolados 43 táxons nos meios de cultura com Pb(NO3)2, com predominância deles nas concentrações mais elevadas (500 a 1.000 mg dm-3). Foram obtidos 63 táxons nos meios com Zn(NO3)2, principalmente nas concentrações moderada e elevada (200 e 500 mg dm-3). Prevaleceram espécies de Trichoderma, de Penicillium e diversos fungos que são encontrados associados a substratos vegetais em decomposição. A tendência de se obter número elevado de táxons em meios de cultura com concentrações moderadas a elevadas de Zn e Pb pode ser justificada pela existência de bem adaptada e competitiva micota do solo, caracterizada por elevada capacidade de tolerância aos metais e eficiente habilidade sapróbia competitiva.

Millipedes are macro-arthropods of soil which perform a important role in maintaining the balance of the ecosystem, since they feed on decaying organic matter and because they promotes the soil enrichment, aeration and humidification. These animals are usually found in humid with low light places, under rocks and trunks. The diplopods exoskeleton is much resistant and impregnated with calcium salts. Due the secretion of defense, with strong and unpleasant smell, the animals of this class have few or no predators. Large diplopods populations are not observed, but explosions population can occur for unbalances enviromnmental, by climate change and by use of pesticides that may eliminate potential competitors. In this sense, the millipede Urostreptus atrobrunneus Pierozzi & Fontanetti, 2006, has presented points of infestation in urban centers of Sao Paulo state, causing many disorders of the human population. Because it is a newly described species, little is known of its aspects biological and morphological. Thus, the purpose of this study was to describe the structure and function of the digestive tract of the species U. atrobrunneus by means of histological, histochemistry and ultrastructural techniques. The results demonstrated that the digestive tract of U. atrobrunneus is similar to the descriptions given for other species. The foregut consists of a simple epithelium, composed of cells of different heights, covered by a cuticular intima, leaning on a thin basal membrane, followed by a well-developed muscular layer and an external membrane, around the foregut have a pair of salivary glands. The midgut epithelium has a pseudostratified, supported by a thick basal membrane, followed by a muscular layer and a layer of hepatic cells. The muscle is distributed unevenly coated with an external membrane, this portion is marked by the absence of cuticular intima... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
