Dos escritos juveniles de Estanislao S. Zeballos

Resumen: A poco de obtener el grado de doctor en jurisprudencia en la Universidad de Buenos Aires, Estanislao S. Zeballos, que no obstante su juventud había concretado ya diversas iniciativas culturales y ejercido el periodismo de batalla, adhirió a la revolución encabezada por el general Bartolomé Mitre en 1874 para oponerse a la asunción del presidente Nicolás Avellaneda. Fue nombrado capitán y secretario del comandante en jefe. Durante la campaña escribió un relato de sus días infantiles en la ciudad de Rosario y acerca de su ingreso al Colegio Nacional, y un boceto sobre el clima político previo a la elección de Avellaneda como presidente de la República.

El deán Gregorio Funes & Dámaso Antonio Larrañaga : evocando el pasado desde un presente revolucionario

Resumen: El avance que presentamos tiene el propósito de estudiar los antecedentes proto-historiográficos rioplatenses, a través del análisis del “Ensayo de la Historia civil de Buenos Aires, Tucumán y Paraguay”, del Deán Gregorio Funes, y del “Descubrimiento y Población de esta Banda Oriental del Río de la Plata. 1494 - 1818”, del Pbro. Dámaso Antonio Larrañaga. Ambos autores fueron eclesiásticos de acción destacada en el período revolucionario. Se establecerán ciertos ejes comparativos los cuales pretenden abarcar: 1) el periodo colonial, 2) el proceso revolucionario, 3) los límites geográficos por los cuales sobrevuelan los relatos, 4) los modos en que son descriptos los pueblos originarios, 5) los asuntos eclesiásticos y religiosos

First record of Holothuria (Platyperona) difficilis Semper, 1868 (Echinodermata:Holothuroidea) from the northern Arabian Sea (Pakistan)

During the 1994 winter collections, a small holothurian was collected from the rocky shore of Buleji (24°50'N, 66°53'E). It was attached to the green seaweed, Ulva fasciata and was not immediately noticed due to the same basic colour of the body as that of the seaweed. For identification a microscope slide of the spicules was prepared by placing a small piece of skin on a slide and treating it with (3.5%) sodium hypo-chloride (common household bleach). The specimen was identified as Holothuria (Platyperona) difficilis Semper, 1868.

Suggestive role of eye-stalk of Macrobrachium gangeticum Bate, 1868 in regulation of its reproductive behaviour

Role of eye-stalk of Macrobrachium gangeticum Bate, 1868 in its reproductive behaviour has been examined by conducting deletion and addition experiments. Eye-stalk ablation induced gonadal maturity in both sexes, leading to change in colour and size of ovaries and increase in GSI and oocyte diameter in females and increased length of testes and diameters of seminiferous tubules in males. Injection of eye-stalk extracts tended to at least partly restrict the effects in both sexes. The experiments thus suggested that the eye-stalk of M. gangeticum released some gonad inhibiting factors.

Geographic variation of Chevrier's field mouse (Apodemus chevrieri) (Milne-Edwards, 1868) (Muridae : Murinae) from southwestern China based on cranial morphometric variables

Geographic variation of Chevrier's field mouse (Apodemus chevrieri) (Milne-Edwards, 1868) (Muridae: Murinae) from southwestern China based on cranial morphometric variables. Zoological Studies 47(4): 393-401. A sample of 134 specimens of Apodemus chevrieri was investigated in the present study. Individuals were divided into male and female groups, and these were respectively subjected to multivariate analysis. Results indicated that 3 geographic populations of A. chevrieri inhabit southwestern China: a Sichuan population in western Sichuan Province; a northwestern Yunnan population ranging from northwestern Yunnan Province eastward to southern Sichuan Province; and a central Yunnan population in central Yunnan Province. In addition, a coefficient of difference analysis was performed among these 3 geographic populations. The results suggested that these 3 geographical populations of A. chevrieri belonged to 2 subspecies. Furthermore, we discuss the relationships of the subspecific differentiation of A. chevneri with changes in latitude in southwestern China.
