Estudio taxonómico de las especies ibéricas del género Odiellus (Arachnida: Opiliones)

El género Odiellus Roewer, 1923, diagnosticable por un robusto tridente frontal y una excavación dorso-distal en el tronco del pene, alberga seis especies ibéricas. La elevada variabilidad detectada sugiere que hay más especies. En este trabajo se realiza la caracterización de las especies ibéricas, así como su estudio morfológico y morfométrico (haciendo hincapié en las del noreste ibérico), y la descripción de una nueva especie de Cataluña, usando para ello ejemplares conservados en la colección del Departamento de Zoología y Biología Celular Animal de la UPV/EHU, así como ejemplares capturados durante una campaña en el Macizo del Garraf entre el 1 y el 3 de noviembre del 2012. Los resultados muestran que las variables morfométricas estudiadas influyen de manera desigual en la varianza muestral, lo cual puede ser útil en futuros estudios a la hora de decidir distintos caracteres diagnósticos para cada una de las especies de Odiellus ibéricos.

A study of the proposed Santa Fe extension from the present Redondo Branch at El Segundo to Los Angeles Harbor

The Los Angeles Harbor at San Pedro with its natural advantages, and the big development of these now underway, will very soon be the key to the traffic routes of Southern California. The Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe railway company realizing this and, not wishing to be caught asleep, has planned to build a line from El Segundo to the harbor. The developments of the harbor are not the only developments taking place in these localities and the proposed new line is intended to include these also.

A comparison of the costs of operation of the motor bus, Birney safety car, and trolley bus on the local transportation routes in Pasadena

With the installation by the Pacific Electric Railway of a bus system in Pasadena to supplant most of its trolley lines, the problem of the comparison of the costs of the two systems naturally presented itself. The study here undertaken was originally started as just a comparison of the motor bus and Birney Safety Car, but as the work progressed it seemed advisable to include the trolley bus as well - a method of transportation that is comparatively new as far as development is concerned, but which seems to be finding increasing favor in the East.

A study of the durability of concrete in sea water

The durability of concrete in sea water has been a very widely debated question from the time that disintegration of concrete in sea water first became evident. Numerous investigations and reports have been made of isolated structures in various parts of the country and from these, hasty conclusions have been reached which engineers, situated where different conditions prevail, have not been warranted in accepting. A few engineers have made investigations of a much wider scope and consequently their conclusions should be given greater weight.

Report on the Linda Vista bridge site

The Linda Vista Bridge spans the Arroyo Seco about a quarter of a mile above the Colorado Street Bridge, but serves an entirely different territory; as there is no road between there on the west bank. Los Angeles, Hollywood, and several of the beach cities can be reached by the way of the Colorado Street Bridge. The Linda Vista Bridge carries the traffic to the northwest of Pasadena, that is, Flintridge, Linda Vista, Montrose, Sunland. After leaving the bridge, the road follows the west bank of the Arroyo almost to the mouth of the canyon; then to the west along the foot of the mountains and into the San Fernando Valley.

Entre o exotismo e o progresso: a construção do Brasil pela fotografia de Marc Ferrez

Marc Ferrez (1843-1923), filho de franceses nascido no Brasil, exerceu por mais de cinqüenta anos a atividade de fotógrafo e comerciante de materiais afins. Para o presente estudo foi selecionada da imensa produção de Ferrez uma série de fotografias que pudesse abranger a diversidade de temas, regiões e períodos nos quais o fotógrafo atuou. A partir desta seleção foi estudada a contribuição da fotografia para a formação de uma identidade nacional brasileira, levando-se em conta os meios de circulação e recepção das fotografias e suas diversas formas de reprodução. Neste circuito visual travou-se um combate de imagens: de um lado o público que encomendava trabalhos de documentação fotográfica procurava apresentar uma nação n a marcha do progresso, de outro lado a comercialização de fotografias ou reproduções delas com grande aceitação em um mercado de imagens trazia especialmente temas como a natureza ou os tipos humanos exóticos. Na fotografia de Ferrez podemos apreender imagens de um país cujas elites sonhavam em mostrar civilizado, mas onde, a o mesmo tempo, predominava o elemento natural exuberante e os tipos exóticos. Elementos e temas essenciais para se discutir pertencimento, imaginário, identidade, enfim, para avaliar as construções da nação brasileira.

Symposium on World tuna fisheries: commemorating the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission

The Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (lA TTC) came into existence in 1950, after its convention, signed by representatives ofCosta Rica and the United States in 1949, was ratified. It was the first international tuna organization, and only the third international fisheries organization, whose staff has had the responsibility for performing scientific research, the others being the International Pacific Halibut Commission, established in 1923, and the International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission, established in 1937. The current members of the IATTC are Costa Rica, Ecuador, EI Salvador, France, Guatemala, Japan, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, the United States, Vanuatu, and Venezuela. The first Director ofthe IATTC was Dr. Milner B. Schaefer, who was in that position from 1950 to 1963. He was followed by Dr. John L. Kask (1963-1969), Dr. James Joseph (1969-1999), and Dr. Robin L. Allen (1999-present). The success ofthe IATIC showed that it was possible to carry out research and management on an international, high-seas fishery successfully. Since then other international organizations for tuna management, including the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (1969), the Forum Fisheries Agency (1979), the Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (1994), and the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (1996), were established. Appropriately, the 50th anniversary celebration was held in Costa Rica, one of the two charter members of the IATTC. Persons who have held important positions in international fishery management in various parts ofthe world spoke at the celebration. Their presentations, except for that describing the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission, are reproduced in this volume.
