Plagaedessa maranhensis Almeida & Nunes & Fernandes 2018, sp. n.
No full textPlagaedessa maranhensis sp. n. (Figs. 38–39, 50–51, 52) Etymology. Name refers to the locality where the specimen was collected. Material examined (n=1): Holotype female. BRAZIL, Maranhão: 1 ♀, Bom Jardim, REBIO-Res. Biol. Gurupi. Armad. Luminosa Base. 05–15.VI.2010, J. C. Silva, J. A. Silva, A. A. Santos, T. T. A. Silva. (MPEG). Measurements. Total length: 17.7 mm; abdominal width: 8.9 mm; head length: 1.7 mm; head width: 3.2 mm; antennomeres length: I: 0.9; II: 1.6; III: 1.9; IV: 3.7; V: 4.2; pronotum length: 3.5 mm; pronotum width: 10.2 mm. Diagnosis. Gonocoxites 8 with distal region rounded and strongly projected reaching almost half of the length of the plate; projection forming a U–shaped medial excavation (Fig. 38). Gonocoxites 9 with posterior margin slightly notched (Fig. 38). Protuberance of gonapophysis 9 larger than in the other species. Discussion. Male unknown. This species can be easily recognized by the form of the gonocoxites 8 and 9. Females from the other species are quite similar and difficult to differentiate. Distribution (Fig. 52).

SPM in situ data at Patos Lagoon estuary in 4 stations: Feitoria, Marambaia, Praticagem, and Porto Rei - Fernandes (1998)
No full textFernandes (Fernandes, E. H.: Modelling the Hydrodynamics of the Patos Lagoon, Brazil, Ph.D. thesis, University of Plymouth, 2001) aimed to calibrate the hydrodynamic model TELEMAC for the Patos Lagoon for the first time. The author executed SPM field measurements at 4 stations: Feitoria, Marambaia, and Praticagem (between 27-29 October, 1998), and at Porto Rei (between 05-06 November, 1998) and measurements were carried out at the surface, middle depth and bottom using horizontal bottle samplers. These consist of a simple PVC pipe closed at the ends by rubber stoppers and released by a messenger sent from the surface. Sub-samples were stored in plastic bottles for further filtration and determination of SPM content. Samples were filtered through CA filters of 45 μm pore size as in Baumgarten et al. (Baumgarten, M., Rocha, J., and Niencheski, L.: Manual de Análises em Oceanografia Química, FURG, Rio Grande, Brazil, 1996)

Diagnosis. Pygophore with posterolateral angles straight in dorsal view (Fig. 23). Margin of the dorsal rim of pygophore sinuous (Fig. 23). Superior process of genital cup shallow and small, not reaching apices of the paramere projections (Fig. 24). Paramere with anterior projection short and rounded, sinuous and directed to the proctiger; lateral projection directed to the posterolateral angle (Fig. 24). Female internal genitalia with capSUla SeminaliS distinctly globose and projections slightly surpassing posterior annular flange (Fig. 40); sclerotized part of gonapophysis 9 larger than in P. nigrovittata; DUctUS receptacUli after vesicular area shorter than in P. nigrovittata (Figs. 40, 41). Discussion. Distribution of the species extended to Mexico and Costa Rica. Male and female genitalia of P. celSa are described for the first time. This species is quite similar to P. DiStanti sp. n. However, P. celSa can be distinguished by the humeral angle straight, shape of the parameres and superior process of genital cup. Internal female genitalia probably are also typical but only two species were dissected. This is the only species of PlagaeDeSSa known to Central America so far. Distribution (Fig. 52).

A pregação da virtude em Gonçalo Fernandes Trancoso
No full textIn the sixteenth century, in Portugal, Gonçalo Fernandes Trancoso writes his Contos e Histórias de Proveito & Exemplo with pedagogical-moralizing intent, disillusioned at the
dissolution of the customs brought by the overseas conquests. The author makes use of a resource
of the medieval era - the exempla - to show himself as a champion that fights for the values of the
Virtue. The purpose of this article is to analyze how the author mounts his preaching stories by
analyzing the narrative techniques used to show how these stories have become a pleasurable and
uplifting readingNo século XVI, em Portugal, Gonçalo Fernandes Trancoso escreve seus Contos e Histórias de Proveito & Exemplo com intenção pedagógico-moralizante, desiludido ao assistir à dissolução
dos costumes trazida pelas conquistas ultramarinas. Vale-se de um recurso próprio do medievo –
os exemplos – para mostrar-se como paladino que luta pelos valores da Virtude. O objetivo desse
artigo é analisar como o autor monta seus contos de pregação, analisando as técnicas narrativas
utilizadas para mostrar como esses contos tornaram-se leitura prazerosa e edificant
