1. A presente contribuição trata do estudo morfológico e anatômico das domácias que ocorrem em 21 variedades e 4 formas da espécie Coffea arabica L. 2. Além da revisão da literatura, que se cingiu unicamente aos trabalhos que focalizam o assunto em aprêço, constam, na introdução, algumas obras que se referem às domácias existentes em outras famílias. 3. A fim de apreciar convenientemente os conceitos que os diferentes autores expediram a respeito das domácias, desde que se tornaram conhecidas, foram registradas, no capítulo correspondente, as funções e as diversas denominações que lhes foram atribuidas. 4. As principais classificações das domácias propostas são de CHEVALIER, LEBRUM e DE WILDEMAN. As domácias das variedades e formas de Coffea arabica L., se enquadram no tipo b, isto é, domácias em fenda, segundo a classificação de CHEVALIER. 5. O material utilizado no presente estudo, constante de ramos com fôlhas de várias idades, proveio do Instituto Agronômico de Campinas e da Secção de Agricultura Especial da E.S.A. "Luiz de Queiroz". As observações morfológicas das domácias foram feitas com o auxílio do microscópio estereoscópico e constam do Quadro I e II. A estrutura anatômica foi apreciada em cortes transversais medianos da domácia, coloridos pelo violeta cristal e eritrosina, com espessura de 18 micra, cujos dados acham-se anotados nos Quadros de n.os III a XI. 6. No capítulo referente à morfologia e à anatomia das domácias, para melhor apreciação do assunto foi introduzida a estrutura anatômica da fôlha adulta da variedade typica. 7. Morfològicamente as domácias foram examinadas nas suas duas faces, isto é, superior e inferior, anotando-se-lhes os aspectos apresentados, bem como a sua localização no limbo, isto é, na axila formada pelas nervuras principal e secundárias. No geral a sua distribuição vai desde a base do limbo até aos 2/3, aproximadamente, do seu comprimento. Na face ventral da fôlha, as domácias exibem uma elevação abaulada e na dorsal situam-se na área da axila, e em um plano um pouco mais elevado que o limbo, mostrando no centro um orifício de forma variável. Em cortes medianos, a domácia revela-se constituida de uma câmara embutida no mesofilo, a qual se comunica com o exterior por um canal; êste por sua vez, termina numa bôca que se abre na epiderme inferior do limbo. Histològicamente a domácia consta de uma epiderme, procedente do limbo e da nervura, e de um tecido parênquimatoso envolvente, composto de algumas camadas de células, o qual confina com os tecidos do mesofilo. Topogràficamente a domácia situa-se entre os seguintes tecidos da estrutura foliar: sistema vascular principal, nervura secundária, parênquima lacunoso lateral e parênquima lacunoso superior. Sua posição com relação às regiões mencionadas fica perfeitamente definida, determinando-se as distâncias que vão do centro da câmara até elas.

For the determination of exchangeable hydrogen ion in soils, the authors of the presente work made the extraction with normal calcium acetate solution that may have an initial pH between 7 and 8 without altering the amount of hydrogen ion extracted. The extraction was made by shaking 5,0 grams of air dry soil with 100 ml of normal calcium acetate solution, the pH of wich was ascertained to 7,0, 7,5 and 8,0 with acetic acid, in 250 mil conical flasks for 30 minutes in a Wagner shaker (30-40 rpm). The contents of the flasks were then, filtered. A 50 ml aliquot of each of the leachate was titrated with a 0,020 N NaOH solution and the volumes consumed sodium hydroxide were ploted against pH. The titration curves thus obtained showed to be straight lines between pH 8 and 9 and parallel to the curve obtained by the titration of the blank. Two ways of locating the end point of the titration showed to be possible: the use of a pHmeter or titrimeter or the use of phenolphtalein as indicator. When using a pH meter or a titrimeter, the end point may rest in any point between pH 8 and 9, and the volume of sodium hydroxide consumed is found by comparison with a similar curve obtained by the titration of the blank. When using phenolphtalein the calcium acetate solution must have a pH below 8.

Twelve samples of fluid milk delivered by "Laticínios Piracicaba Ltda." for public consumption, from March 25 do August 7, 1959, were analysed to determine its calcium and phosphorus content per 100 ml. A slight variation was observed. Calcium varied from 119 to 136 mg and phosphorus from 83 to 91 mg. These results are comparable to the ones obtained in other countries, showing that calcium and phosphorus content in cow milk is almost invariable.

This paper deals with Mimosicerya hempeli (Cock., 1899) (Homoptera, Margarodidae) and its predator, the ladybeetle Exo-plectra erythrogaster Muls., 1851 (Coleoptews, Coccinellidae), which were found to occur at Piracicaba, State of São Paulo, Brasil. The first is a pest of "cássia imperial" (Cassia fistula L.), and several other trees. As those insects are little known, a few bionomical notes and descriptions of some of their stages are presented. The adult scales proved to be very resistant to an application of mineral oil plus malathion. Methyl Demeton applied with irrigation water showed no control. The same insecticide injected into the trunk gave very poor results.

This paper deals with a modification in the solubilization technique of natural phophates in the 2% citric acid solution. The proposed technique is as follows: 2,5 g of phosphatic material and 250 ml of 2% citric acid solution, in a 500 ml Erlenmeyer flask, are shaken for 30 minutes at 30-40 rpm. The phosphorus (P2O5) was determined by the usual method. The data obtained were compared with the conventional technique in which a Stohmann bottle is used. The natural phosphates used were: Phosphorita de Olinda (Pernambuco), Flórida Phosphate (USA) and Hiperphosphate (África). Statistical analysis was applied to the data and the following conclusions were arrived at: a) The precision is equivalent in both techniques. b) There is no significant variation between the means obtained with the two technique.

In the field of agrometeorological studies we are in need of the estimation of the solar radiation frequently. At the present study the authors have worked out some dat:t regarding the hours of sunshine during the months of August, September, October, November, December and January of 1957, 1958 and 1959. Based on such hours of sunshine in the Agrometeorological Station, located at the Escola Superior de Agricultura "Luiz de Queiroz" - U.S. P., in Piracicaba, the authors calculated the solar radiation received on a plane and horizontal surface, from the method proposed by Glover and Mc Culloch. With those results the authors estimated the percentual part of radiation that would be received on vertical wall facing north.

1. Intact cells of Nitrobacter agilis fix CO2 during the oxidation of nitrite according to the same pathway found to occur in photosynthesis by higher plants. Activity of carboxidismutase - the crucial enzyme for fixation - was demonstrated in cell free extracts. 2. High energy phosphates (as ATP) are generated during the oxidation of nitrite with an apparent P/O ratio of 0.5.

In the State of S. Paulo, Brazil, squash plants (Cucurbita spp.) are attacked by the Javanese nematode (Meloidogyne javanica) and by M. incognita acrita. Squash belongs to that group of plants in which the root-knot nematodes break through the root surface, so that the egg-producing females protrude from the root, showing yellowish or brow nish egg masses attached to them. Washed roots show numerous small dark spots, each corresponding to an ootheca, which is adhering to a mature female. A curious abnormal female of M. i. acrita was obtained from a sample of squash roots. This female's body showed two globular parts, separated by a deep constriction. The convoluted ovaries were found to fill both portions of the body.
