Zethus alessandroi Lopes 2015
No full textZethus alessandroi Lopes, 2015 (Figs. 5–6 and 10–12) The newly collected specimen expands the distribution of Z. alessandroi by over 500 km. The locality in Mato Grosso State is the only known record of this species besides the type locality in Acre State. The male greatly resembles the paratype, varying in having the clypeal apex slightly concave (Fig. 6). Still, while comparing both specimens, some incongruences between the paratype itself and the description in Lopes et al. (2015) were observed and needed to be corrected. The first involves the pilosity (Fig. 5), where the identification key mentions “mesoscutum with short thick erect setae among longer, curved, thick pilosity” while the description simply states it as “yellow, thick, erect and long pilosity”. The first is the correct configuration and the reader should ignore what is in the pilosity description. The second relates to the drawings of the male genitalia (Figs. 10–12), where some details were left aside in the original illustrations (Lopes et al., 2015, Figs. 8h, p, x) due to a slight overexposure in the clarification treatment. While most characters remain unchanged, the cuspis appears to present a baso-ventral projection (Fig. 10), similar to most species of the Z. hilarianus species-group such as Z. dicomboda, Z. iheringi, Z. caridei and others and opposing closely related ones in the Z. smithii clade.

Zethus giseleae Hermes & Lopes 2018, new species
No full textZethus giseleae Hermes & Lopes new species (Figs. 1–4 and 7–9) Diagnosis. Zethus giseleae runs into couplet 6 of the key proposed by Lopes et al. (2015). It differs from Z. kaapora Lopes by the lack of thick, erect, golden pilosity along the entire body (Fig. 1). Zethus giseleae differs particularly from Z. smithii by the truncate apex of the clypeus (Fig. 2, concave in Z. smithii), by the shape of the apical male flagellomere (Fig. 3, wider apically in Z. giseleae), and by the higher profile of T1 (Fig. 4). Also, several male genitalic features allow ready distinction between the two species: volsellar crest wider (Fig. 7, narrower in Z. smithii), setae on digitus dense and long (Fig. 7, shorter and sparser in Z. smithii), ventral margin of the ventral lobe of the aedeagus rounded, with a prominent basal projection (Fig. 8, somewhat rectangular in Z. smithii), basal plaque of aedeagus elliptical (Fig. 9), and apex of aedeagus strongly bifid (Fig. 9). All images may be compared to those provided by Lopes et al. (2015) for Z. smithii. Description. Holotype male. Body length from head to apex of T1 12 mm. Forewing length from middle of tegula 13 mm. Body ground color predominantly black, with yellow markings as follows: broad stripe along inner margin of mandibles; apical band on clypeus; small bands on inner orbit of compound eyes near clypeus; spots on inner upper margins of antennal sockets; small stripes on gena at the height of eye emargination; thin lateral stripes on pronotum adjacent to pronotal carina; small spots on apical projections of tegulae and parategulae; stripe on most of metanotum; longitudinal stripes on posterior surface of propodeum; interrupted apical stripes on outer surface of fore femora; stripes on frontal surface of fore tibiae; irregular markings on frontal surface of mid and hind coxae (the latter having markings on posterior surface as well); large stripes on inner surfaces of mid femora and tibiae; stripes on inner surfaces of hind tibiae; apical lateral stripes on each side of T1; basal spots on stem of T2; thin apical stripes on T2 and S2; apical wide stripes on T3–7 and S3–7. Hind femora and tibiae and mid femora with chestnut markings. Wings dark-hyaline, venation black-brownish, especially dark along costal region. Clypeal apex somewhat truncate, teeth slightly developed; distance between antennal sockets wide, around 2.5x a socket diameter; last flagellomere apically enlarged; gena wide, wider than the upper lobe of the compound eye; occipital carina strong and sharp, angular near mandibles, almost touching compound eyes inferiorly near mandibles; pronotal carina lamellar and somewhat translucent dorsally; mesepisternum swollen; propodeal dorsal aperture with two orifices; posterior surface of propodeum with median carina along its entire length; propodeal submarginal carina trapezoidal when seen from behind; propodeal valvula enlarged and rectangular; mid tibiae with two apical spurs; biggest high of T1 before middle of tergum when seen in profile; stem of T2 longer than that of T1; T2 and S2 with translucent narrow lamella. Clypeus with somewhat sparse and shallow punctures; frons above clypeus with strong and striate punctures, becoming regular and sparser on vertex and gena; strong and dense punctures on dorsal surface of pronotum, mesoscutum, mesepisternum and scutellum; lateral surface of pronotum with shallow and irregular punctuation, with weak striae near pronotal fovea; metanotum with small and shallow punctures basally, impunctate posteriorly; posterior surface of propodeum striate, striae becoming weak on lateral surfaces; T1 sparsely punctate basally, punctures becoming denser towards apex; punctures somewhat obsolete on remaining terga, but well developed on S2-7, especially on S2. Clypeus with pubescence concentrated on center, and with long, sparse, decumbent whitish setae on its entire surface; long, erect whitish setae on frons, becoming shorter and decumbent on vertex and gena; sparse and short erect whitish setae on pronotum, mesoscutum and scutellum, longer on metanotum, mesepisterum and propodeum; short and erect setae on base of T1, becoming shorter and sparser towards apex; short and erect setae on S2, becoming longer and thicker on T3–7 and S3–7. Male genitalia: volsellar crest wide; setae on digitus dense and long; ventral margin of the ventral lobe of the aedeagus rounded, with a prominent basal projection; basal plaque of aedeagus elyptical; apex of aedeagus strongly bifid. Female unknown. Etymology. The specific epithet is an homage to our colleague Gisele G. Azevedo, who promotes the study of Hymenoptera in one of the least explored northeast states in Brazil, Maranhão. Type material. Holotype male (CEUFLA), ‘ Brasil, Maranhão, Penalva,\ Real Lodge (Faz.

CAPRI versus AGLINK-COSIMO: Two partial equilibrium models - Two baseline approaches
No full textThe agricultural modelling world has generated several models aiming at the analysis of the response of the sector to certain changes in exogenous mainly policy variables. Among those, the CAPRI modelling system developed by a consortium centred on the University of Bonn and the AGLINK-COSIMO model, a joint product of the OECD and the FAO, are well known and accepted as comprehensive tools. This analysis focuses on a qualitative comparison of both models and particularly on the process of setting up the baseline. The baseline is a medium-term projection of agricultural markets reflecting current policies and those already decided upon. This projection in turn serves as the base for comparisons when analyzing scenarios. It is shown that CAPRI uses generic and automatic procedures whenever possible for conducting the database and the baseline, while AGLINK-COSIMO puts more emphasis on expert knowledge in this process. Both approaches are shown to have certain advantages while the conclusion that a combination of them would potentially improve both models will be drawn from this analysis.CAPRI, AGLINK-COSIMO, Baseline process, Agricultural and Food Policy,
