Notas sôbre Tabânidas brasileiros: II. Fidena callipyga n. sp.

Fidena callipyga n. sp. is described from three specimens, in the collections of the INSTITUTO OSWALDO CRUZ. It is related to Fidena ornata kröb., 1931 and Fidena aureopygia Kröb., 1931. It can be distinguished from both by the postfrons which is comparatively broader in relation to the high, by the light golden-yellow color of the beard, in striking contrast to the hairs on the propleurae and anterior coxae, and by the extent of the golden-yellow on the abdomen. In size, ornamentation and principally in the form of the palpi it is nearer to aureopygia. Fidena callipyga n. sp. and Melpia miniatistola (End.), 1925 constitute a pair of convergent forms, they differ however not only as to hairs on the mesonotum, femora and hind tibiae and form of the abdomen, but also as to the color of the beard.

Ensaios terapêuticos com penicilina V-Bouba (Framboesia, pian, yaws): I - Dose curatina mínima: II - Redução do número de injeções diarias: III - Redução de tempo de tratamento pelo emprêgo de doses mais elevadas

This report belongs to the series of works carried out Oswaldo Cruz Ins¬titute, on the treatment of treponematosis with penicillin. The present report deals with investigations performed in order to ascer¬tain the following points: 1) the mininal curative dosis for the initial lesions of yaws; 2) the effect of reduction of the number of injections each day, to verifie the possibility of application of penicillin in the prophylaxis of yaws in rural zones; 3) reduction of the time of treatment by application of high dosis. 1) With dosis of 150 and 100 Oxford units each four hours, clinical reco¬very was obtained after 17 days of treatment. With 50 O.u. during 40 days clinical recovery was not obtained. 2) a) With 3 injections of 400 O.u. each day (6,12 and 18 hoórs clocks) clinical recovery was obtained after 14 to 16 days; b) with 2 injections of 400 O.u. each day (6 and 18 hoors clocks), clinical recovery was obtained after 16 to 23 days; c) with 1 injection of 1.600 and 3.200 each day, clinical recovery was obtained after 30 and 20 days. 3) With dosis of 33.3 and 46.7 O.u. by each kilo of weight each four hours, during 15 days, clinical recovery was obtained more or less in 25 days. The same result was obtained with the dosis of 61.5 and 166.7 O.u. by each kilo of weight, each four hours, during 4 days. But with 100.000 O.u. in fine dosis of 20.000 in a day ou by, clinical recovery was not obtained.

A vegetação do município de ilhéus, Estado da Bahia: II observação e ligeiras considerações acêrca de espécies que ocorrem na regiçao: chave analítica das espécies arbóreas

I - Short description of the species. II - Analytic key of the trees. III - List of the species collected with register number and author's number. SHORT DESCRIPTION OF SPECIES - This section includes a short morphological analysis of the species and the study of their geographic distribution, locality, habitat and regional zonation. ANALYTIC KEY OF THE TREES - The author was obliged to make a morphological key for his use on account of the great difficulty met in identifying the species in the field. LIST OF SPECIES COLLECTED WITH REGISTER AND COLLECTOR'S NUMBERS - As the majority of the species from Ilheus are paratypes of the types described in "Flora Brasiliensis" it was decided to publish this list. The author's chief objective was to call the attention of specialists tothe undetermined material with a view to interesting them in studying it.

As espécies neotropicais da família Simuliidae Schiner (Diptera Nematocera): II. Lutzsimulium cruzi, n. gen. e n. sp. e nova concepção da nervação das asas dos Simulídeos

A new system for wing venation of Simuliidae is proposed. Lutzsimulium cruzi n., gen. and n. sp. is described based on an single female and its pupal skin.

Novos cultivos cromogênicos de bacilos ácido-alcool resistentes isolados de mosquitos (Culicini), capturados sobre leprosos: II nota

1. O autor obteve três novas culturas de bacilos ácido-alcool resisten¬tes, isolados de mosquitos (Culicini) capturados sôbre leprosos, em condições naturais, no campo livre a um quilômetro aproximadamente de distância da Colônia Santa Fe. 2. As semeaduras praticadas com mosquistos normais,, capturados sôbre um cavalo, até hoje foram negativas, para bacilos ácido-alcool resistentes. 3. Os exames microscópicos de esfregaços de diferentes tribus de mosquitos silvestres, capturados em condições naturais, sôbre enfermos lepro-matosos, nas margens do rio "Peixe", deram um total de 22% de positivos, com 111 bacilos contaveis e algumas massas de bacilos ácido-alcool resistentes na laminas observadas. (V. quadro I). 4. Os mosquitos urbanos Cutex fatigans, capturados dentro da Colônia nos Pavilhões e vivendas isoladas com lepromatosos, deram um total de 20% de positivos, com 55 bacilos contaveis e alguns grupos de bacilos e globias de bacilos ácido-alcool resistentes. (V. quadro II). 5. Em 50 laminas com esfregaços de mosquitos Culicini normais, cap¬turados sôbre cavalo, encontramos uma só lamina 4 bacilos duvidosos. No resto, as laminas foram negativas para bacilos ácido-alcool resistentes. Estes estudos estão sendo continuados no Laboratório de Leprologia do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz. Assim também temos empreendido novas experiências trabalhando com mosquitos capturados sôbre leprosos nas proximidades do Hospital-Colônia Curupaity e com mosquitos capturados nos Pavilhões do Leprosário, contando com a colaboração do Prof. Oliveira Castro, na classificação do material, determinando rigorosamente as espécies dos mosquitos.

On Hyperbolic once-punctured-torus bundles II. Fractal tessellations of the plane

We describe fractal tessellations of the complex plane that arise naturally from Cannon-Thurston maps associated to complete, hyperbolic, once-punctured-torus bundles. We determine the symmetry groups of these tessellations.
