Temperatura promedio de la superficie del mar frente a la costa peruana, periodo 1928-1969

El área considerada en el presente estudio es una pequeña porción costera del Pacífico Tropical Oriental, que se extiende entre las latitudes de 1°S-20°S y entre la costa y la longitud de 86°W. En la descripción empleamos el término de zona norte para referirnos a la parte situada al norte de los 6°S. Cuando decimos aguas oceánicas nos referimos a las aguas del océano abierto. Cuando hablamos de estaciones del año nos referimos a las estaciones del Hemisferio Sur. Las temperaturas promedio de la superficie del mar corresponden a observaciones realizadas en el período 1928-1969 (que viene a representar algo más de 4 décadas), y, por la densidad de las observaciones, son más representativas de las 4 estaciones del año pertenecen a: febrero, abril, setiembre y noviembre.

Pineus boerneri Annand, 1928 (Hemiptera, Adelgidae) - a new species to Brazil: morphology of eggs, nymphs and adults

Pineus boerneri Annand, 1928 (Hemiptera, Adelgidae) _ a new species to Brazil: morphology of eggs, nymphs and adults. Pineus boerneri represents the first Adelgidae species recorded in Brazil. This aphid species forms extensive colonies on branches and trunk of Pinus spp., with apterous oviparous females, eggs and nymphs covered with white wax. The aim of this research is to study the morphology of eggs, nymphs, and adults to provide useful data for species identification in order to solve taxonomic issues. The study was based on morphometric data and optical and scanning electron microscopy images. First instar nymphs are active and can be easily distinguished from the others by their elongate minute yellowish body; well developed legs bearing a pair of sensorial setae at the apex of the second tarsomere; and antenna with three segments with a large rhinarium and distinct apical setae on the last segment. From the second to the fourth instar, nymphs are sessile, with round red body; they loose the third antennal segment and its sensorial structures, as well as the setae on the second tarsomere. The oviparous female is reddish-brown, with round body with about 0.76 mm diameter; legs reduced; antennae one-segmented; ovipositor distinct; numerous wax glands are present, mainly on the head. Accurate characterization of the species and distinction of the nymphal instars of P. boerneri were made possible by canonical analysis of morphometric data and morphological characters.
