Phylogenetic position of Dendropsophus gaucheri (Lescure and Marty 2000) highlights the need for an in-depth investigation of the phylogenetic relationships of Dendropsophus (Anura: Hylidae)

Dendropsophus gaucheri is a recently described species which inhabits open areas of the eastern part of the Guiana Shield and is currently assigned to the D. parviceps species group based on the presence of a subocular cream spot. Herein we investigate its phylogenetic position including material from the type locality and newly documented populations from Suriname and Brazil based on mtDNA sequences. The species, as well as D. riveroi which is assigned to the D. minimus species group, were recovered nested within the D. microcephalus species group which implies the paraphyly of the three Dendropsophus species groups. Such result, along with other evidences, highlights the need for a thorough revision of the genus. The genetic distances among D. gaucheri samples studied are low confirming their conspecificity and suggesting recent connections among populations from open areas currently isolated by rainforest in the lowlands of the Guiana Shield.

Interview with Martha "Marty" Grigsby

In her December 10, 2012 interview with Robert Ryals, Martha Grigsby detailed her thoughts and memories of her time at Winthrop University. Grigsby shares the story of how she was able to attend Winthrop and the members of her community who assisted her in this process. Included are details of working in the dining hall on a scholarship, how relationships were formed amongst students, and how the students navigated Winthrop’s strict rules. Grigsby concludes her interview by stating how Winthrop helped her career as an educator and how she has stayed involved as an alumna. This interview was conducted for inclusion into the Louise Pettus Archives and Special Collections Oral History Program.

O corpo na psicanálise contemporânea: sobre as concepções psicossomáticas de Pierre Marty e Joyce McDougall

Este estudo tem como objetivo apresentar algumas considerações a respeito das concepções teóricas de Pierre Marty e Joyce McDougall. Tal propósito justifica-se tendo em vista que os referidos autores se afiguram como dois dos mais importantes expoentes da psicossomática psicanalítica e, assim, oferecem contribuições de grande valor para a compreensão dos determinantes psicológicos das enfermidades orgânicas. Além disso, vale destacar que Marty e McDougall acrescentam à psicanálise conceitos que ainda não foram devidamente incorporados à literatura científica especializada. Conseqüentemente, considerou-se relevante focalizar no presente estudo a discussão de dois desses conceitos, a saber: pensamento operatório e desafetação.
