The vocals are the most conspicuous means of communication between frogs and can express evolutionary relationships among species. Call descriptions of frogs, in general, not standard acoustic parameters which are greatly diversified and usually restricted to comparisons between closely related taxa. The Atlantic Forest is considered one of the biodiversity hotspots of the world, however, it appears that the number of species to be known is still very large. To anurans from this Brazilian Domain, vocalizations are complex and can vary intra and interpopulations. Thus, we presented a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the work descriptions of anuran advertisement call from the Atlantic Forest, available in the literature so far. The frog species from this Domain and their descriptions of the advertisement call have been raised in the literature, organized into families and threat category IUCN Red List Threatened Species. The analysis of the descriptions were made based on the presence of preset parameters. It was observed that the species which the advertisement call is described within the standard are expected within the Brazilian Atlantic Domain, but efforts to describe the advertisement call of frogs of the Atlantic are concentrated in non-threatened species. Among the descriptions works, there is a large discrepancy between the information presented, giving preference to the use of abiotic data in this kind of work, to the detriment of biotic data about choir where the songs were recorded. The results point to the need for advancements in the descriptions of the advertisement of endangered species or to those with deficient information on their conservation status in the Atlantic Forest, and also for greater communication between works that describe vocalizations of frogs. It will be important to know about the state of the art of descriptions works of frogs in other Brazilian Domains, and relate this information with knowledge...

O presente estudo foi desenvolvido no Parque Estadual Carlos Botelho (PECB), situado na Serra de Paranapiacaba, região sudeste do Estado de São Paulo, Brasil. Ocupa uma área de aproximadamente 37.000 ha e abriga um dos mais bem preservados remanescentes de Mata Ombrófila Densa. No trabalho em questão, foi relacionada a regeneração natural na presença e ausência de Calathea communis (Marantaceae), bem como avaliou-se a interferência dos ambientes de encosta e de fundo de vale sobre o número e diversidade de regenerantes. Para a escolha dos pontos de amostragem, cada um de 6 transectos (com cerca de 1 km de extensão) foi dividido em 20 frações de 50 metros, sendo então sorteados 10 pontos por ambiente topográfico. Das 120 parcelas que amostraram a regeneração (1X1m), 30 envolveram sítios de ocorrência com C. communis em ambiente de encosta, e 30 em fundo de vale. O mesmo se repetiu para as áreas com sua ausência (60 parcelas). Levantou-se os regenerantes, entre 10 e 150 cm de altura, divididos em três classes de tamanho: A (10-15cm), B (16-50cm) e C (51-150cm). Para a classe A, a amostragem foi feita, apenas, para a quantificação de regenerantes; para a classe B houve uma separação por morfoespécies; e para a classe C os regenerantes foram identificados em nível de espécie. Alguns parâmetros de estrutura de habitat foram avaliados para a caracterização dos microsítios: luminosidade, declividade, cobertura de dossel e porcentagem de cobertura de C. communis. Confirmou-se a interferência de C. communis sobre a diversidade e abundância de regenerantes, ficando as variações topográficas (encosta e fundo de vale) com influência secundária sobre sua distribuição.

In most brazilian cities, urban growth has occurred without adequate planning. Consequently, portions of the city were being occupied, often areas unfit for use and occupation of land, causing risks to local residents and decline of urban environmental quality. One of the most frequent problems is the riverbank occupation, causing the deforestation of the riparian vegetation. Given the above, this paper aimed to map the urban sprawl of Rio Claro/SP, as well as riparian vegetation in the vicinity of Corumbataí in the area including the urban area. For this purpose, GIS techniques were used in order to prepare the thematic map of urban expansion, as well as a map of the riparian vegetation through interpretation of aerial photographs in the environment of ARCGIS. From the maps, an analysis of “Plano Diretor” was made in order to verify if the current occupation of urban land meets the stipulations of this legal instrument

Atlantic Forest and Cerrado are between the biological richest areas in the world, for that are considered top conservation priorities. Those ecosystems are found at Botucatu region, where it´s extremely fragmented by routes, agricultural areas and urban centres. This fragmentation causes restrictions on animals populations, in particular to medium and large mammals, that needs larger areas to live and also are often hunted. Even isolated and suffering anthropic influences the fragments are fundamental for local biodiversity conservation. We realized a mammal survey on two forest fragments of Atlantic forest transition to Cerrado of Rubião Júnior – Botucatu – SP – Brazil: Santo Antônio Church and Parque das Cascatas forests. The Santo Antônio church munt is considered a turistic point and its forest receive many visitants, Parque das Cascatas forest is inside of a residential condominium. Both areas are classify as semidecidual stational forest and are disconected by Domingos Sartori route, that connect Botucatu centre to Rubião Júnior district. Around both fragments can be found residences, plantations and pastures. The utilized method included: recognition of tracks on the forests, interviews with next residents and sand plots mounting. The interviews indicated 29 mammals species, and 19 was validated for animal traces, overruns or visualization. Other 3 species found were not mentioned on interviews. Totally, was found 22 small and medium mammals presence evidences on both forest fragments. Parque das Cascatas forest showed more diversity (19) then Santo Antônio Church forest (11), and species like Eira barbara, Procyon cancrivorus, Mazama americana, Shiggurus villosus, Dasypus novemcinctus, Didelphis albiventris, Lutreolina crassicaudata and Lepus europaeus looked for other areas once that was verifyed overruns of individuals...

Entre os diferentes ambientes da Mata Atlântica as áreas de maior altitude são o hábitat de algumas espécies de anfíbios anuros. Tais espécies devem ser investigadas, pois ambientes montanhosos e acidentados podem propiciar barreiras à dispersão de diversos anuros, podendo fazer com que cada população passe por processos independentes de evolução, podendo levar à especiação. Ischnocnema holti é um exemplo de espécie que encontra-se em áreas de altitude da Mata Atlântica. Trabalhos anteriores revelam que há divergência genética entre amostras de diferentes localidades em que tal espécie habita, onde muitas vezes existe uma confusão de identificação com I. lactea. Este estudo utilizou marcadores moleculares para estimar a divergência genética entre as populações atribuídas à espécie em estudo nas diferentes áreas de altitude em que esta se encontra, buscando-se contribuir à compreensão de como barreiras geográficas por altitude poderiam interferir nos padrões de diversidade desta região, além de esclarecer o conflito de identificação. Dentro do complexo de espécies I. lactea/holti observou-se sete clados genéticos que podem ser novas espécies. Os resultados obtidos no presente trabalho sugerem que os espécimes incluídos no clado II correspondem à espécie Ischnocnema holti e sua distribuição restringe-se à parte alta da Serra do Itatiaia, no município de Itamonte, estado de Minas Gerais. Já os exemplares dos clados I, III, IV, V, VI e VII provavelmente não correspondem à espécie I. holti, fazendo-se necessária uma maior amostragem para estabelecer em definitivo as relações e os limites específicos neste complexo de espécies. Para melhor entendimento deste complexo é necessária uma revisão taxonômica, sendo indispensáveis estudos com base em aspectos morfológicos, bioacústicos, ecológicos e genéticos...

The present study aimed to survey the medium and large land mammals in three fragments at the Fazenda Experimental Lageado - UNESP/Botucatu, through the method of sand plots. 48 plots were used in total, 16 on each track. The paw prints found were photographed and identified from specific guides. 12 different species of mammals were found, these, 7 were classified at the level of species belonging to 9 families and 6 orders. The most representative order was Carnivora. Most of the species found have a generalist or omnivore habit, which can be related with the degree of the forest fragmentation. The only fragment of natural forest (semideciduous), presented the fewer numbers of species, which can be explained due to its isolation. The other fragment, which has near highway and other large fragment (Fazenda Experimental Edgárdia) was the most representative fragment, demonstrating the importance of nearest fragments to the continuity and survival of medium and large mammals

Heavy metals are found naturally in soils at low concentrations, but their content may be increased by human activity, making them one of the barriers in management of tropical soils. These chemical elements can be found in the composition of organic and inorganic fertilizers, insecticides, fungicides, mine tailings, and urban waste, and may cause serious damage to the environment and human health. Thus, adsorption studies are essential in assessing the behavior of heavy metals in the soil. The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of soil chemical, particle size, and mineralogical properties on adsorption of cadmium (Cd), evaluated by Langmuir and Freundlich models, in Latossolos (Oxisols) with or without human activity. Soil samples were collected from the surface layer, 0.00-0.20 m, and chemical, particle size, and mineralogical analyzes were performed. In the adsorption study, concentrations of 0, 5, 25, 50, 100, 200, 300, and 400 mu g L-1 of Cd were used in the form of Cd(NO3)(2). The empirical mathematical models of Langmuir and Freundlich were used for construction of adsorption isotherms. Data were analyzed by means of multivariate statistical techniques, Cluster Analysis and Principal Component Analysis. The data from the adsorption experiment showed a good fit to the Langmuir and Freundlich models. Soils with a lower goethite/hematite ratio and greater cation exchange capacity and pH, showed higher maximum adsorption capacity of Cd.

One of the greatest challenges for the agricultural system is to establish agricultural production combined with the conservation of genetic resources, mainly aiming to protect the Permanent Preservation Areas. In this context, mulungu ( Erythrina velutina Willd), among other native species, has been suffering with anthropogenic pressures in various ecosystems, causing reductions in its genetic basis. This work aims to identify ecological and genetic population parameters as indicators of sustainability in two natural populations of mulungu, located in riparian forest, in the state of Sergipe, and to assess the tendency to their sustainability, aiming genetic conservation of the species. The matrix of Pressure-State-Impact/Effect-Response (PEI/ER) was used with the selection of 13 indicators, from the use of RAPDmolecular markers and biochemical (enzymes) markers in populations, in order to present them as relevant information to measure progress as for sustainability and conservation ofmulungu. The studied populations presented low tendency to sustainability, requiring strategies to change this status.
