A new hybrid of Salento (Southern Italy), Serapias xGussonei: Serapias xdemadesii (S. Bergonii x S. Lingua) x Serapias parviflora
During a periodic survey carried out in 2023 for the study of the orchidological component of the surrounding areas of Lecce, an entity belonging to the genus Serapias was found at the stagno di Acquatina (hamlet of Frigole in the municipality of Lecce, Province of Lecce), that has been identified as a new hybrid resulting from a cross between Serapias ×demadesii (hybrid between S. bergonii and S. lingua) and Serapias parviflora. The new hybrid was represented by a unique specimen in an environmental context represented by an atypical garrigue environment in a damp area, due to the presence of widespread small freshwater springs, with extensive outcrops of limestone rock and rich shrubby vegetation. The specimen showed characteristics of S. ×demadesii, mainly as regards the shape of the labellum and some other floral segments, with strong influence of S. bergonii and S. lingua; the special shape of the petals and other characters of taxonomic importance have made it possible to trace the second parent represented by S. parviflora. The presence of the new hybrid close to a small population of S. ×demadesii, the state of sympatry with this and with S. parviflora, as well as the overlap of their flowering periods favored the parental attribution; a detail that took on significant importance was represented by the bright yellow colour of the pollinodes, that in the new hybrid took on a dominant character due to the dual influence of S. lingua and S. parviflora, both characterized by bright yellow pollen masses. Finally, further correlation to S. parviflora derives from the state of the pollen grains which do not always appear well aggregated, resulting as a specific characteristic of S. parviflora. Overall, these clues take on great importance in this discovery which is the first case, to our knowledge, of a ternary hybrid in the genus. Serapias
Abnormal honeycomb stingrays Himantura uarnak (Dasyatidae) from the Syrian coast (Eastern Mediterranean Sea)
The authors report in the present paper from the Syrian coast the captures of two specimens of the honeycomb stingray, Himantura uarnak (Forskål, 1775) displaying a morphological abnormality. Both specimens exhibited pectoral non-adherent to the head. They are female specimens, and one of them was a large specimen, an adult female measuring 1485 mm in disc width (DW) and 3130 in total length (TL), its total body weight (TBW) reached 150 kg, probably the largest and heaviest honeycomb stingray known to date. The second specimen was a juvenile female. The abnormality herein described is the most widespread in batoid species. This kind of abnormality is due to the fact that the pectoral fins failed to fuse during the embryonic development. This abnormality has a genetic origin but according to authors, it could be also the result of other factors, mainly environmental such as the role of pollutants
Dalla filosofia dell'amore all'etica della malattia: fortuna di una sententia platonica
The only surviving medical work written by Antonius Galateus, the pamphlet De podagra, deals simultaneously with the pathology of disease and its remedies, and its intellectual implications, thus offering a text with strong literary connotations. The article aims to contextualize the Platonic source (Symposium 219a) recalled in the first lines of the treatise and to trace Galateus' readings within his ethical humanism
La tutela del diritto alla salute dello straniero dall'accesso ai servizi sanitari, al rilascio del permesso di soggiorno e ai divieti di espulsione per cure mediche
ItIl presente contributo intende riflettere sulle garanzie che l'ordinamento italiano appresta, a livello costituzionale e legislativo, al diritto alla salute per gli stranieri non regolarmente soggiornanti. L'obiettivo è quello di esplorare come si manifesta nella legislazione italiana l'eterna tensione tra il diritto alla cura per gli stranieri e le esigenze di sicurezza legate al controllo dei flussi migratori, evidenziando le implicazioni per i diritti umani e la dignità degli individui.EnThis contribution aims to reflect on the guarantees that the Italian legal system provides, at a constitutional and legislative level, to the right to health care for non-registered foreigners. The aim is to explore how the eternal tension between the right to care for foreigners and the security requirements linked to the control of migration flows manifests itself in Italian legislation, highlighting the implications for human rights and the dignity of individuals
Il ruolo dei diritti umani nella politica migratoria italiana: tra protezione e governo
ItNel diritto dell'immigrazione, il sistema di protezione internazionale e nazionale, soprattutto nelle sue evoluzioni recenti, si configura come uno strumento di governo delle migrazioni, più che di tutela dei diritti umani. Questo sistema rafforza i processi di filtraggio, contenimento e controllo della mobilità. Il paper esamina il rapporto tra diritti umani e gestione delle migrazioni, analizzando come la normativa sulla protezione incida sulle condizioni che ostacolano l'attraversamento dei confini.EnIn immigration law, the international and national protection systems, particularly in their recent developments, increasingly function as tools for managing migration rather than safeguarding human rights. These systems reinforce processes of filtering, containment, and control of mobility. This paper examines the relationship between human rights and migration management, analysing how protection laws influence the conditions that hinder border crossings
Dall'offerta formativa all'offerta di lavoro: il diritto all'istruzione e formazione per la promozione di canali di immigrazione legale dall'Africa
ItGuardando all'Africa, continente dalla vasta mobilità migratoria e più elevato dividendo demografico, si analizzano le attuali politiche italiane per l'accesso all'istruzione professionale e all'alta formazione come leva di governo stabile della migrazione. Analizzandole rispetto alla tutela dei diritti fondamentali, il contributo dimostra come la loro attuazione possa condizionare il futuro della migrazione legale, sempre più legata alla selezione di competenze richieste dal mercato del lavoro.EnGiven Africa's vast migratory mobility and prominent demographic dividend, this paper explores the last Italian policies promoting access to vocational and higher education as tools for legal migration governance. By examining their impact on fundamental rights, it highlights how their implementation could shape the future of legal migration, which is increasingly reliant on the selection of "necessary" skills for the domestic labor market
Un Approccio innovativo per l'educazione: intelligenza artificiale e gamification
L’intelligenza artificiale (IA) integrata ai processi di apprendimento rappresenta una nuova sfida per insegnanti ed educatori (Larini, 2024). In sinergia con la gamification, l’IA consente di far sperimentare allo studente esperienze uniche ed interessanti (Zia, Hafeez, 2023). Il contributo si sofferma su un’indagine esplorativa che verte sulle rappresentazioni che un gruppo di docenti neoassunti hanno sull’ IA e sulla gamification nella gestione della classe. Artificial intelligence (AI) integrated into learning processes represents a new challenge for teachers and educators (Larini, 2024). In synergy with gamification, AI allows students to experience unique and engaging experiences (Zia, Hafeez, 2023). The contribution focuses on an exploratory investigation into the perceptions of a group of newly hired teachers regarding AI and gamification in classroom management
