Estrategias felinas: discurso poetico X midia na poesia brasileira contemporanea : Armando Freitas Filho e Sebastião Uchoa Leite
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e ExpressãoA presente dissertação analisa na produção textual de Armando Freitas Filho e Sebastião Uchoa Leite o conflito entre a mídia, como veiculadora de discursos homogeneizantes na sociedade, e o discurso poético como voz alternativa, marcada pela singularidade e pelo exercício crítico em relação às noções de sujeito, subjetividade, verdade, discurso. Para isso, foram estudadas principalmente obras escritas nos anos 1980

Titanochrysa trespuntensis sp. nov. is the only species in the genus with an protuberance on the apical margin of S 8 + 9, wings without black markings on membrane, and wide gonapsis with acute lateral projection. On the male, there are setae beneath the arcessus as in Titanochrysa circumfusa (Burmeister) comb. nov., but T. trespuntensis males do not have X-shaped rods on the arcessus, or striations on the apical surface of the arcessus. Externally, T. trespuntensis resembles some Ungla species, but it can be distinguished from those species because its inner gradates meet the Psm vein and the males have a gonapsis.

In some specimens, the left and right wings show different venation, and sometimes two inner gradate veins are surrounded by a single spot. Etymology. The species is named in honor of the agricultural engineer Cleidson Soares Ferreira who collected many chrysopids from the southern part of Minas Gerais state, Brazil. Species relationships. See T. pseudovaricosa comb. nov. Externally, Titanochrysa ferreirai sp. nov. resembles Ungla laufferi (Navás, 1922) based on descriptions provided by Freitas et al. (2009) and Tauber & Flint (2010). Both species have the frons tinged with red laterally; genae, lateral clypeus, maxillary and labial palpi black, and spermatheca pillbox-shaped. However, Titanochrysa ferreirai sp. nov. differs from U. laufferi in that it has a wide costal area, shading on the membrane around the inner gradates, and a cordate subgenitale with elongate distal section.

Sertania jaibensis Freitas 2017, comb. nov., stat nov.
No full textSertania jaibensis (Callaghan & Soares, 2001), comb. nov., stat nov. (Figs 5–8, 23–24, 28–30) Audre guttata jaibensis Callaghan & Soares, 2001. Revta. bras. Zool. 18(3):758–760. Figs. 15-18. Type locality: Jaíba - Mocambinho, Carrasco (490 m), Minas Gerais, Brazil. Holotype male: MNRJ (examined). Diagnosis. Average forewing length: males 12–14 mm (n = 6), females 13.2–14.5 mm (n = 3). This taxon was originally described as a subspecies of S. guttata due to its similarities and allopatric distribution (Callaghan & Soares 2001). However, more detailed evaluation of its morphology combined with the differences in the DNA barcode (3.91%, Table 2) indicate that the differences are more profound and that S. jaibensis should be raised to species status. The FW shape of Sertania jaibensis comb. nov., stat nov. differs from Sertania guttata comb. nov. in being relatively longer with a more pointed apex and the margin of both wing surfaces black instead of red; the male ventral HW post-medial area is nearly white in S. jaibensis and dark brown in S. guttata. The frons of S. jaibensis is dark brown with a small white spot in the middle; that of S. guttata is white with two parallel light brown vertical lines. In the male genitalia, valvae are slightly longer with tips turned up in S. guttata (Fig. 22), while they are shorter and truncated with straight tips in S. jaibensis (Fig. 24); the pedicel is straight and pointed in S. guttata, and more curved and separated in S. jaibensis. In the female genitalia, the ostium bursae is broader in S. guttata, and more constricted caudad in S. jaibensis. Biology and distribution. The habitat of S. jaibensis is transition between cerrado and caatinga vegetation. The type locality between Jaíba and Mocambinho (490 m) in the Minas Gerais state presents a closed, tall-shrubby, xerophilous vegetation termed “Carrasco” with floristic elements of caatinga (Callaghan & Soares 2001). Besides the proximity of the São Francisco River, S. jaibensis does not inhabit gallery forests, which also form part of the habitat. The other two known localities in Diamantina and Sempre Vivas National Park consist of unique highaltitude (900 to 1500m) rocky outcrop vegetation (Fig. 36) locally known as “campos rupestres” typical of higher parts of the “Serra do Espinhaço” range (see Alves & Kolbek 2010). This species is absent from the Brazilian central Plateau to the south of this locality. Butterflies fly rapidly and close to the ground at mid-day, resting with open wings on leaf dorsal surfaces, in apparent contrast to the more sedentary behavior of S. guttata. As mentioned above, the species is known from only three localities in northern Minas Gerais. Material examined. BRAZIL: Minas Gerais: Jaíba - Mocambinho, Carrasco (490 m), 2♂, 3♀, 9.iii.1997, A.
