Contribuição ao conhecimento da sistemática e biologia de buprestídeos minadores do gênero Pachyschelus Solier, 1833: (Coleoptera, Buprestidae)

Buprestid leaf-miners are generally included in the subtribe Trachytes. The genera belonging to this subtribe are commonly very rich in number of species and their systematics envolves huge difficulties. On the other hand the biological knowledge on those insects is very poor. The A. tries to clarify the systematical status of two species of Pachyschelus - P. subundulatus Kerr. and P. fulgidipennis Lucas, and redescribes also P. binderi Obenberger. The hosts of the first two species are recorded, namely: Terminalia catappa (Combretaceae) - host-plant of P. subundulatus and Luhea spp. (Tiliaceae) - host-plant of P. fulgidipennis. The mines, developmental stages and habits of the three species are described and is made a full redescription of the adults, both male and female. The study is based on reared material from mined leaves, as well as insects assembled in several brazilian collections, both private and public ones. The importance of some biological facts as well as some morphological characters are stressed. The knowledge of the host-plants and the shape and other structural features of the mine were found to be helpfull to the identification of the species. Some morphological features of adults also prooved to be of systematical value. Besides the female pygidium and the male genitalia, the tibiae of the third pair of legs show some intersting structural details, reasonably alike in both sexes and quite different in each species.

Estudos taxionômicos e biológicos sôbre buprestídeos minadores do gênero Pachyschelus solier, 1833, com a descrição de uma espécie nova (Insecta, Coleoptera)

This paper deals with two Brazilian species of the genus Pachyschelus Sol., namely: P. urvillege sp. n. and P. mimus Obenberger, 1925. P. urvillege sp. n. is described based on specimens reared from leafmined Urvillea glabra Cam. (Sapindaceae); it seems to be related to P. vanrooni Obenb., 1923, from which it can be distinguished by the absence of sexual dichroism, structural details of female pygidium and, as supposed, by the male genitalia (still unknown in P. vanrooni). P. mimus Obenberger, 1925, was reared from Psidium araça Raddi (Myrtaceae), and the male allotype is described. Oviposition, larval cephalic capsules and mines of both species are described, as well as other developmental stages of P. urvilleae. Some larvae of the latter were found parasitized by Tetrastichus sp.

Notas sôbre o gênero Colobogaster Solier, 1833, com a descrição de duas novas espécies da Região Amazônica: (Coleoptera, Buprestidae)

The study of materials belonging to several brazilian collections led us discover 2 new species of the genus Colobogaster which are here described. C. seabrai sp. n. seems to be related to C. puncticollis Waterhouse, 1882, from which it can be distinguished by: a) apical alitral tooth placed suturally, b) pronotum with 3 pairs of depressions, the 1st. pair transversal and conigous to the 2nd one, c) elitral suture brilliantgreen coloured but not the marginal edge, d) front without a horse-shoe shaped structure, e) pronotum with the discal region concolor. The structures of pronotum, the elitral and pronotal colour paterns and the genial morphology separate this one from other species of the genus. C. paraensis sp. n. is closely related to C. cupricollis Kerremans, 1897, but it is distinguished by the absence of depressions on the pronotum, by the elitral tooth placed suturally, by the abscence of humeral rip and by the general colour. Eleven other species were studied and their apical segment of the abdomen and scutellum were illustrated. It was also established the synonymy of C. ecuadoricus Obengerger, 1926.

Microtriatoma pratai sherlock & Guitton, 1982 é sinônimo do Hemíptero predador Aradomorpha Championi Lent & Wygodzinsky, 1944 (Reduviidae, Reduviidae): notas

Microtriatoma pratai Sherlock & Guitton, 1982 não pertence a este gênero de Triatominae. Não é inseto hematófago. Pertence ao gênero Aradomorpha Champion, 1899 e à espécie A. championi descrita por Lent & Wygodzinsky em 1944, inseto predador da subfamília Reduviidae.

Agroecologia periurbana a Sant Cugat: document base per a la redacció del Pla de Gestió i Desenvolupament del parc rural de la Torre Negra

El parc rural de la Torre Negra ha estat protegit recentment després de 15 anys de lluita ciutadana, gràcies a l’aprovació del Pla Especial de Protecció i Millora el 29 de juny del present any. A partir d’ara, s’obre un ampli ventall de possibilitats per a la seva gestió i desenvolupament. En aquest context és on es situa el present estudi, amb la finalitat de presentar unes línies estratègiques bàsiques per a iniciar l’activitat al parc. Una activitat que té en el punt de mira el desenvolupament rural de l’espai i la transformació social de la ciutadania.

Taxonomic review of Lutzomyia walkeri (Newstead, 1914) [= Lutzomyia marajoensis (Damasceno & Causey, 1944)] and the resurrection of Lutzomyia dubitans (Sherlock, 1962) (Diptera: Psychodidae)

Examination of the holotype of Lutzomyia marajoensis (Damasceno & Causey, 1944) shows this species to be identical to Lutzomyia walkeri (Newstead, 1914). The name Lutxomyia dubitans (Sherlock, 1962) is resurrected for another sand fly which has been incorrectly named L. marajoensis since 1961. Newly discovered structural differences between males and females of L walkeri from L. dubitans are presented.

O proxecto de creto agrícola e a proposta de redención foral (1886). A resposta liberal de Montero Ríos e Díaz de Rábago á crise finisecular

Este estudo plantexa as interaccións habidas entre pensamento económico e a toma de decisións políticas a traveso dun caso concreto. Analizámo-las propostas referidas á política agraria plantexadas polo Ministro de Fomento Eugenio Montero Ríos (1885-1886) e a influencia que nelas exerciu o economista Joaquín Díaz de Rábago. Ámbolos dous foron galegos destacados da segunda metade do XIX . A investigación centrouse nas concomitancias entre as propostas lexislativas e as obras publicadas. Ainda que tamén pescudamos aspectos biográficos máis correspondencia persoal co gallo de evidencia-la amizade e a cooperación existentes entre eles.

Dieu, vingt-six portraits bibliques

Vingt-six portraits par vingt-six exégètes. Tel est le défi proposé et assumé pour un parcours surprenant de lectures et d'interprétations multiples d'un Dieu unique et en même temps complexe. Quelle cohérence entre le Dieu fracassant de l'Exode et le Dieu crucifié de l'apôtre Paul ? Quelle continuité entre le Dieu de Gédéon et celui de Jésus : " Mon Dieu, mon Dieu, pourquoi m'as-tu abandonné ? " (Mc 15,34) ? Le Dieu de l'entrée en Canaan ressemble-t-il vraiment à l'Agneau immolé de l'Apocalypse ? Mais déjà, au sein de la Bible hébraïque, les trompettes de Jéricho côtoient le Serviteur souffrant d'Isaïe. Comment comprendre aujourd'hui cette diversité de la présence de Dieu dans la Bible, si ce n'est par la diversité des regards d'exégètes dont la lecture croisée des textes bibliques nous invite à renouveler notre compréhension de Dieu ?
