Ictiólogos de la Argentina: Ricardo Luis Delfino Schenke

This series will include all those people who, by means of their contributions, great and small, played a part in the consolidation of ichthyology in Argentina. The general plan of this work consists of individual factsheets containing a list of works by each author, along with reference bibliography and, whenever possible, personal pictures and additional material. The datasheets will be published primarily in chronological order, although this is subject to change by the availability of materials for successive editions. This work represents another approach for the recovery and revalorization of those who set the foundations of Argentine ichthyology while in diverse historical circumstances. I expect this to be the beginning of a major work that achieves the description of such a significant part of the history of natural sciences in Argentina.

Auge y caída del principio de justicia universal en el ordenamiento español

El presente trabajo se propone analizar desde una perspectiva internacionalista el recorrido del principio de justicia universal en nuestro ordenamiento: inicialmente configurado como un principio de carácter absoluto y cuyo alcance se ha visto drásticamente reducido tras las reformas llevadas a cabo por el legistlador en la última década, especialmente la última de ellas realizada en 2014, hasta el punto de acabar con la misma esencia de esta figura. Expuesto lo anterior, se abordan también las consecuencias que ha traído esta última modificación y las reacciones que la misma ha provocado. Para terminar, trataremos de esclarecer cuáles son las posibles vías de actuación dado el escenario actual.

O desenvolvimento institucional da Corte Suprema Argentina e do Supremo Tribunal Federal no Brasil : trajetórias comparadas desde o estabelecimento até a democratização

Nesta tese analisamos o desenvolvimento institucional do Alto Tribunal de forma comparativa. Observaremos, tanto na Argentina e no Brasil, a trajetória de ambos os Tribunais Superiores desde a sua criação até o restabelecimento da democracia (1853-1985). Em particular, analisamos as características das mudanças e os tempos em que essas ocorreram. Examinaremos os meios utilizados e os objetivos dessas alterações nos Altos Tribunais. Cada caso tem suas particularidades, mas há semelhanças importantes nos dois casos. Os meios e os objetivos das alterações serão observados concomitantemente com os tempos em que elas tenderam a ocorrer. Assim, observando o passado e a trajetória do Tribunal Superior, aprofundaremos a compreensão da instituição no presente.

Instituições, interesses e tributação no Brasil e na Argentina : o novo desenvolvimentismo e os conflitos em torno da agenda tributária

Esta tese abordou como temas centrais a capacidade de extração tributária e os conflitos distributivos inerentes ao efetivo exercício da coleta de tributos pelo Estado. Nosso objetivo foi analisar os processos por trás das disputas em torno da tributação no Novo Desenvolvimentismo no Brasil (governos Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, 2003-2010) e na Argentina (governos Néstor Kirchner, 2003-2007, e Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, 2007-2011), identificando os legados das trajetórias institucionais prévias sobre a formulação de suas agendas tributárias, bem como as estratégias empreendidas pelas coalizões governantes e opositoras para a promoção de mudanças nas instituições tributária. Para tanto, focalizamos o estudo dos conflitos em torno da CPMF, no Brasil, e das retenções às exportações, na Argentina. Sustentamos que a formação de coalizões desenvolvimentistas explica a formatação de consensos em torno do fortalecimento da capacidade de extração tributária e, por conseguinte, da capacidade de investir e de efetuar gastos sociais. As diferenças observadas nas capacidades extrativas no Brasil e na Argentina se explicam, fundamentalmente, pela construção de um duradouro consenso em torno do desenvolvimentismo, no Brasil, em contraste com a trajetória de marcada por disputas em torno das estratégias de desenvolvimento na Argentina. Ademais, a formação de coalizões de sustentação a determinadas agendas tributárias deve ser entendida no marco das disputas em torno da distribuição dos custos e dos benefícios decorrentes dessas políticas. Por isso, fez-se necessário analisar a articulação das elites econômicas dos dois países na defesa dos seus interesses: embora suas elites empresariais (industriais ou agropecuárias) apresentassem dificuldades históricas na articulação de ação coletiva em favor de agendas positivas, elas foram capazes de articularem suas ações em torno de interesses negativos, objetivando obstaculizar políticas tributárias que fossem de encontro aos seus interesses.

Contribución de las comunidades bentónicas en la dieta del róbalo (Eleginops maclovinus) en la Ría Deseado (Santa Cruz, Argentina)

Se analiza el aporte de la comunidad bentónica de la ría Deseado a la dieta del róbalo (Eleginops maclovinus), para contribuir al conocimiento de la trama alimentaria costera en la Patagonia austral. Entre la primavera 2005 y otoño 2006 se estudiaron las comunidades bentónicas submareales en áreas de pesca de E. maclovinus y paralelamente, se analizaron los contenidos alimentarios estomacales de róbalos provenientes de la pesca deportiva. La comunidad bentónica de planicies areno-fangosas fue dominada por poliquetos, representados principalmente por las familias Onuphidae, Orbiniidae y Maldanidae. Los crustáceos constituyeron el segundo grupo en importancia y estuvieron representados principalmente por los anfípodos gamáridos Heterophoxus sp. y Ampelisca sp. La comunidad submareal de fondos de rodados estuvo dominada por poliquetos de las familias Nereididae, Cirratulidae y Polynoidae, y los moluscos Perumytilus purpuratus y Margarites violacea. E. maclovinus presentó una dieta bentónica de tipo oportunista y generalista, con una tendencia hacia la ingesta de anfípodos gamáridos y algas clorofíceas. Durante la marea baja, la mayor contribución a su dieta la realizó la comunidad de planicies areno-fangosas submareales. Durante la marea alta, E. maclovinus se alimentó también en el intermareal rocoso, donde preda preferentemente las clorofíceas Enteromorpha spp. ENGLISH: The role of the benthic communities at Ría Deseado in the diet of the Patagonian blenny (Eleginops maclovinus) was analyzed in order to increase the understanding of the coastal food web in southern Patagonia. Subtidal benthic communities were surveyed between spring 2005 and autumn 2006 in areas of E. maclovinus sport fishing. Simultaneously, the stomach contents of patagonian blenny specimens caught during sport fishing were analyzed. The benthic community over flat sandy-muddy bottoms was dominated by polychaetes, mainly from the families Onuphidae, Orbiniidae and Maldanidae, followed by crustaceans, which were mainly represented by the gammarid amphipods Heterophoxus sp. and Ampelisca sp. The subtidal benthic community over pebbly bottoms was dominated by polychaetes from the families Nereididae, Cirratulidae and Polynoidae and the mollusks Perumytilus purpuratus and Margarites violacea. The diet of E. maclovinus was benthic opportunist and generalist, with a preference to feed on gammarid amphipods and chlorophycea algae. During low tide, the main dietary contribution came from the subtidal community over flat sandy-muddy bottoms whereas, during high tide, E. maclovinus also preyed on rocky intertidal species, mainly the Chlorophycea Enteromorpha spp.

Life history and production of Capitella capitata (Polychaeta: Capitellidae) in Río de la Plata Estuary (Argentina)

A benthic survey was carried out from November 1998 to December 1999 in the tidal flats of Bahía Samborombón (Río de la Plata estuary, Argentina), in order to study the population structure, reproductive aspects, growth and secondary production of Capitella capitata (Fabricius, 1780). Growth was analyzed using ELEFAN routine, and the secondary production was estimated by Hynes and Coleman's method (1968). C. capitata did not present periods of very important recruitments throughout the year; however, the abundance of smallest size classes was higher during summer and autumn. The summer cohort showed a growth rate (K) of 2.05 and a seasonal growth oscillation (C) of 0.6, pointing out that worms grew very slowly during winter months. The life span of this cohort was 13 months. The autumn cohort showed a lower growth rate (K= 1.5) and its growth was lowest during winter. The life span was 15 months for this cohort. C. capitata in Punta Rasa presented an extended reproductive period, with absence of activity during winter months. The type of eggs and larvae suggest that C. capitata has benthic larval development in the study area, destining its reproductive effort to the production of a low number of eggs, and assuring larvae survival through incubation in brooding tubes. The annual mean biomass in Punta Rasa was 0.117 g m-2 (AFDW), with a mean secondary production of 0.23 g m-2 y-1 and a P/B ratio of 1.96 y-1. The relatively low density, biomass production and P/B ratio of C. capitata in Punta Rasa can be considered as reference values for this species inhabiting undisturbed or moderately disturbed areas.

El alga invasora Undaria pinnatifida (Harvey) Suringar en la Ría Deseado (Patagonia austral, Argentina): ciclo del esporofito y factores ambientales determinantes de su distribución

Undaria pinnatifida was registered in Ría Deseado (47º45´S, 65º55´W _ southern Patagonia) by the first time in spring 2005, colonizing the intertidal and shallow subtidal. A seasonal survey in 2006 showed that U. pinnatifida was established in a sheltered zone inside the estuary, along a coastal fringe of 8 km between Punta Cascajo and Cañadón del Puerto. This continuous distribution was only interrupted in the mouth of canyons that flow into Ría Deseado, where the bottom is conformed by mud and sand. The sporophytes were mainly found colonizing the rocky bottom in the lower intertidal, bordering the Macrocystis pyrifera population. The highest density and biomass of sporophytes (12.13 ind. m-2; 254.60 g m-2) were registered during spring, when the population was mainly conformed by individuals of medium sizes. The lowest density and biomass (0.33 ind. m-2; 5.69 g m-2) were registered in autumn. Juvenile sporophytes recruited throughout the year, but presented the highest percentage in the population during autumn and winter. First mature sporophytes appeared in spring and attained their maximum size in summer. After this, the sprophytes decayed and disappeared. Environmental factors such as rocky bottoms availability and water transparency may be the main factors determining the sporophytes distribution in Ría Deseado. The field experiment point out that M. pyrifera population is an important factor controlling the dispersion of U. pinnatifida towards the subtidal. SPANISH: Undaria pinnatifida fue registrada en la Ría Deseado (47º45´ S, 65º55´ W _ Patagonia austral) durante la primavera de 2005, colonizando el intermareal y submareal somero. Los relevamientos estacionales realizados durante el 2006, revelaron que U. pinnatifida se encontró establecida en una zona protegida en el interior de la ría, ocupando una franja costera de aproximadamente 8 km de largo entre Punta Cascajo y el Cañadón del Puerto. Esta distribución casi continua sólo presentó algunas interrupciones en la boca de los cañadones que desembocan en la ría, donde el fondo predominante es de tipo areno-fangoso. Los esporofitos de U. pinnatifida ocuparon preferentemente el fondo rocoso del intermareal inferior, limitando con la población de Macrocystis pyrifera. La densidad y biomasa más altas de esporofitos (12,13 ind. m-2; 254,60 g m-2) fueron registradas en primavera, cuando la población se encontró compuesta principalmente por individuos de tallas intermedias. La densidad y biomasa más bajas (0,33 ind. m-2; 5,69 g m-2) fueron registradas durante el otoño. Los esporofitos juveniles se reclutaron a lo largo de todo el año, pero alcanzaron su mayor proporción en la población durante el otoño y el invierno. Los esporofitos reproductivamente maduros aparecieron durante la primavera y alcanzaron su talla máxima durante el verano, luego del cual comenzaron a deteriorarse y a desaparecer. Factores como la disponibilidad de fondos rocosos y la transparencia de las aguas podrían actuar como los principales factores determinantes de su distribución en la ría. El experimento de campo realizado revela que los bosques de M. pyrifera actúan también como un importante factor de control, limitando la dispersión de U. pinnatifida hacia el submareal.
