East African Freshwater Fisheries Research Organization Annual Report 1965

Throughout the year the Fisheries Departments of Tanzania and Uganda continued to forward to EAFFRO data on the commercial fisheries of Lake Victoria, particularly statistics of fishing-effort and fish-landings. The Kenya Fisheries Department was re-established at Kisumu towards the end of 1964 and has expanded its activities during 1965; whilst regular records of commercial fishing activity have not been despatched to Jinja, appropriate information has been made available on request from the Chief Fisheries Officer. None of the existing research officers at EAFFRO have been assigned to a detailed survey of the statistical data available, although several officers have taken the opportunity of analysing the data regarding the species considered under their own research programmes. As recorded in the last Annual Report, one important function of the UNDP Lake Victoria Fisheries Research Project will be to undertake the relevant statistical surveys essential to the proper management of the commercial fisheries of Lake Victoria. The level of the lake remained abnormally high but fluctuated somewhat during the year, reaching a maximum in May, but falling to a minimum in October before beginning to rise again with the rains at the end of the twelve-month period. The maximum figure for the year recorded at Jinja: 12.92 ft. above datum did not reach the peak recorded in 1964: 13.33 ft. above datum, which was the maximum reading taken since records were begun in 1899. Scientific work carried out by the organization during the year 1965 included work on the following: Commercial fisheries of Lake Victoria Nile Perch investigations Fisheries surveys in Kenya and Tanzania Studies on anadromous fishes Studies on mormyrid fishes Studies on Tilapia species Studies on Alestes Studies on Haplochromis species

A review of the fisheries of the Uganda waters of Lake Albert East Africa, 1928-1965/66, with catch data mainly from 1953

An historical account is given of the development of the Lake Albert fisheries since Worthington's survey in 1928. It is noted that the development of the fisheries was related to, and dependent upon, improvements in the type of gear and canoes, an incFease in the number of canoes and outboard engines in use, improved marketing facilities and better road communications. Summarized data, collected mainly since 1954, has been analysed and tabulated to show annual exports to the Congo, total annual catches 'and annual catches of individual species. A change in the relative abundance of the various species in the annual catches is described. It is noted that this change was caused by a change-over from large to small mesh size gill-nets, and that it was associated with an increased demand within Uganda for the smaller species of fish, such as Aleste's baremose and Hydrocynus forskahlii. A brief description of fish processing and marketing in the Lake Albert region is given, which emphasizes the suitability of salt-cured fish to the social and physical environment of the area. Finally, a summary of a recent survey of the potential fish resources of the lake is given in the discussion, and estimates of the 1965 catch at the north and south ends of the lake are compared with the findings of the survey. This showed that there is little danger of overfishing the Alestes baremose stocks of the Wanseko area at the 1965 rate of exploitation of the species, and that the total catch for 1965 at the south end of the lake was well below the estimated annual sustainable yield from the area.

New data on the morphology and systematic status of Spinitectus petrowi and Spinitectus gigi (Nematoda : Cystidicolidae) parasitic in catfishes in central China

Two little-known nematode species of the genus Spinitectus Fourment, 1883, S. petrowi Belous, 1965 (prevalence 25%, intensity 1-8) and S. gigi Fujita, 1927 (prevalence 10%, intensity 2-3), were collected from the gastrointestinal tract of the yellow catfish, Pelteobagrus fulvidraco (Richardson), from Liangzihu Lake, Hubei Province, central China, in September of 2002. The light and scanning electron microscopical examination of this material, supplemented by a few museum specimens of S. gigi collected from the catfish Clarias fuscus (Lacepede) in southern China, made it possible to study in detail the morphology of these parasite species and to redescribe them. The first species, whose correct name is S. petrowi Belous, 1965, exhibits some morphological features (e.g., unusually short vestibule, shape of pseudolabia and of the left spicule) not found in most other congeners; a unique feature is the presence of peculiar pairs of transversely oriented peg-like cuticular spines with rounded ends on the ventral surface of the female tail. Spinitectus gigi was found to have 28-31 cuticular spines in the first ring, relatively long distances between the 2nd-7th rings of spines, and anterior rings divided into 2 sectors; the excretory pore is located at the level of the 4th ring of cuticular spines; males posses 4 pairs of preanal- and 6 pairs of postanal caudal papillae and a pair of small phasmids. Spinitectus bagri Wang, Wu et Yu, 1993 and S. wulingensis Yu et Wang, 1997 are considered junior synonyms of S. petrowi, whereas S. clariasi Ky, 1971, S. ophicephali Ky, 1971 and S. yuanjiangensis Wang, Wit et Yu, 1997 are regarded to be junior synonyms of S. gigi. Spinitectus petrowi was not previously reported from China.

A fase utópico-patriótica da poesia angolana (1965-1985)

O presente trabalho propõe-se analisar a poesia dos autores angolanos que publicaram entre 1965 e 1985, identificando este segmento temporal como uma fase literária da literatura angolana (designada como utópico-patriótica), a qual exprime os princípios anticoloniais e projeta um espaço utópico genuinamente angolano. Tendo em conta a evolução da literatura angolana, subjaz à produção poética dos autores estudados um certo sentido de continuidade, o qual, estimulado pela difusão do nacionalismo, passa pela poesia «da terra» dos mensageiros e continua com os versos encriptados e anticoloniais das décadas de 60 e 70. O espaço utópico projetado na primeira parte da fase utópico-patriótica encontra a sua possibilidade de concretização com a independência de Angola, em 1975, participando os escritores da construção do recém-nascido Estado-Nação. A produção poética da segunda parte da fase utópico-patriótica é, assim, caraterizada pela celebração dos heróis, na ótica de uma (re)perspetivação da história nacional. A partir de 1985, quando se torna evidente o falhanço da utopia, a poesia angolana ensaia um novo rumo pela mão da «geração das incertezas». Ao longo deste percurso, a poesia angolana publicada entre 1965 e 1985 representa um meio de consciencialização ético-política dos cidadãos e concorre para a construção da identidade político-literária da nação angolana, cuja legitimação decorre do processo de conquista da independência.

1948-1965: o declínio do paradigma clássico e a emergência do maneirismo de Hollywood

O presente trabalho, investiga as origens históricas e as características formais do maneirismo de Hollywood, através de uma análise da produção cinematográfica dos estúdios de Hollywood, entre o final da década de 1920 e o fim do chamado studio system (em meados da década de 1960). Tal como o maneirismo histórico, o maneirismo hollywoodiano constitui um fenómeno artístico complexo e contraditório, cujas origens remontam ao estilo germânico introduzido no cinema dos estúdios em final dos anos vinte, por cineastas europeus como F.W. Murnau, Paul Leni, Rouben Mamoulian e James Whale. Tendo eclodido no final da II Guerra Mundial, período que assinala o início crise do sistema social, cultural e industrial que havia originado o cinema clássico, o maneirismo de Hollywood nasceu de uma consciência do cinema em relação ao seu passado. Obrigado a concorrer com a chamada “modernidade” cinematográfica europeia e com a ficção televisiva (que se apropriara do modelo clássico), o cinema de Hollywood explorou novos temas e géneros cinematográficos e investiu na exibição da técnica e do aparato tecnológico, forçando os limites do paradigma clássico, através de uma retórica de efeitos maneiristas que, não implicando um corte radical com o classicismo, representou uma clara tentativa de renovação formal, levada a cabo por cineastas como Alfred Hitchcock, Vincente Minnelli, Douglas Sirk, Stanley Donen e Jerry Lewis. A coexistência de varias correntes estéticas no cinema do pós-guerra (1945-1968), período em que, a par das últimas grandes obras clássicas, o maneirismo enquanto manifestação estética emergiu como modelo dominante, permite-nos concluir que o chamado cinema “clássico” (do estúdios de Hollywood) incluiu também, desde cedo, um cinema maneirista.
