Formações jurássicas da região de Albufeira: estratigrafia, consequências cartográficas e tectónicas

The geological survey of Albufeira map area envolved the execution of several logs on Jurassic formations. The study of amonoid forms allowed the interpretation and the establishement of correlations on the Upper Jurassic series and the definition of the regional stratigraphic sequence. Based on this fauna, recalled for the first time in this region, the marly and marly-limestone units of the lower part of the series are placed in the interval from middle Oxfordian {plicatilis? - Transversarium zone) to Kimmeridgian (Hypselocyclum zone). Albufeira village is in part built on these formations. The overlaying dolomitic limestones with heterochronous limits at basin level are dated Kimmeridgian. The Jurassic series finishes with compact sub-lithographic limestone beds containing fossils of corals, gastropods and echinoid radioles of Kimmeridgian-Portlandian age. The geological map is presented and the regional structure is discussed.

Vertébrés du Miocène moyen de Amor (Leiria) - importance stratigraphique

Some outcrops in the western part of Leiria's diapir yielded continental fossils in five points near Amor village (mammals, other vertebrata, and gastropoda). This is most significant as it is the first locality where miocene age could undoubtedly been ascribed to formations northwards the Iberian Central Chain and Nazare's accident. Mammalian fauna comprises 18 taxa. A new cricetid species, Fahlbuschia freudenthali n. sp. is described. This fauna allows to date fossil-bearing units from Upper Orleanian, MN5 mammal zone, that may be correlated to Upper Langhian marine stage. As the fauna is quite varied, it is possible to recognize the main characters of environment and of climatic conditions. It may probably be assumed that at the time the climate was of mediterranean type, generally warmer than today.

First report of a human case of polycystic echinococcosis due to Echinococcus vogeli from neotropical area of Peru, South America

We report a human case of polycystic hidatidosis due to Echinococcus vogeli from Contamana (Department of Loreto) village located in the central jungle of Peru. The patient is a 44 year-old lady, teacher, who carried a painless liver mass since a year ago. She was submitted to abdominal surgery and the liver mass was removed and showed multiple cysts containing colorless liquid as is showed in the polycystic hidatidosis. The morphology and measure of the hooks obtained from the liquid contained in the cysts are from Echinococcus vogeli. It is the first report of this parasitism in Perú.

Ni inclusion ni exclusion, mais plutôt un autre espace

Ce texte présente une partie des résultats d’une recherche dont le terrain est constitué par trois localités – une ville (Guimarães), un village (Vizela) et un bourg (Santa Eulália). Notre étude porte sur les représentations de l’espace, que l’on considère comme partie des composantes culturelles qui intègrent les processus de constitution des identités collectives. Les configurations spatiales qui correspondent aux représentations de chaque communauté sont présentes dans les processus de négociation spatial que les trois localités établissent entre elles, en vue de la constitution d’un espace d’ensemble compatible. L’identité de chacune dépend donc de la forme que prend l’espace régional qui comprend les trois localités étudiées. L’étude de cas (Vizela) démontre, dans une situation de transformation du territoire, qu’une double contrainte, organisée par l’inclusion et l’exclusion, conduit à la projection d’un nouvel espace - d’inclusion spatiale, sociale et symbolique - qui constitue une nouvelle réponse à l’imbrication des espaces organisés par différentes villes. Le refus d’une inclusion régionale conduit à la création/revendication d’un nouveau découpage spatial, défini à une échelle plus restreinte, et ce processus se transforme en un point de fixation identitaire.
