Zethus alessandroi Lopes 2015
Zethus 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
Zethus 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.

O local nos musicares de Fernando Lopes-Graça
Resumo: Este artigo foi desenvolvido no contexto de uma pesquisa de doutorado, em fase de conclusão, sobre a obra musical de temática brasileira do compositor português Fernando Lopes-Graça. Partindo da noção de “musicar”, proposta por Christopher Small e definida como ação, processo e rede de relações, trago um panorama biográfico do sujeito da pesquisa, destacando seu envolvimento com a música em suas diferentes áreas de atuação. Segue-se uma discussão sobre a coexistência e articulação de diferentes paradigmas de prática musical, apoiada nas noções de música participativa, coloquial e apresentacional, desenvolvidas por Thomas Turino e Heinrich Besseler (a partir da leitura de Mário Vieira de Carvalho). Por fim, aponto três concepções de “local” que podem ser consideradas na análise da trajetória do autor estudado: o local concreto, referente aos seus ambientes de atuação; o local (adjetivo) tomado como marca de especificidade e o que denomino local “universal”, “ideal” ou “utópico”, relacionado a uma concepção metafórica de local como ambiente de fraternidade plenamente realizada e que se faz presente tanto na temática de muitas de suas obras quanto em seus textos, que nos aproximam de seu posicionamento político e de sua visão da História. Palavras-chave:FernandThe notions of local in Fernando Lopes-Graça’s musickingAbstract: This paper was elaborated in the context of a PhD. research on Portuguese composer’s Fernando Lopes-Graça’s musical works on Brazilian themes. Parting from the concept of “musicking” as action, process and network (SMALL, 1998), I aim to bring a brief biographical panorama of the author, pointing out his engagement in several aspects of music making. Then I propose a discussion on the coexistence and articulation of different musical practice paradigms, based on the notions of presentational, colloquial and participatory music proposed by Thomas Turino and Heinrich Besseler (apud Mário Vieira de Carvalho). Finally, I point out three distinct conceptions of “local” regarding Lopes-Graça’s professional trajectory: the concrete localities where he worked, local as an adjective, meaning a mark of specificity and, finally, what I name “utopic”, “ideal” or “universal” local: a metaphoric notion of local as an environment of true brotherhood. This third notion of local appears in many of his musical works’ themes and in his essays, in which we can approach his political positioning and understanding of History. Keywords: Fernando Lopes-Graça. Musicking. Locality. o Lopes-Graça. Musicking. Localidade.
Ilustrar Adília Lopes: pim pam pum, ouro em jejum
A proposta deste trabalho concentra-se na exploração estética de caráter ilustrativo, do
livro de poesia A Bela Acordada da poetisa Adília Lopes. Parte-se, assim, de uma
reflexão interpretativa sobre a autora e a sua obra, passando pela análise de alguns
modelos simbólicos presentes na sua expressão poética, ponderando ainda nos novos
paradigmas a que o novo milénio e a sua sociedade de imagem/consumo, conduzem.
Nesse sentido, são exploradas e representadas possibilidades pictóricas que, num registo
ilustrativo, se adequam ao mundo alegórico para o qual a autora nos remete em A Bela
Acordada. Representações, que renascem dos contos de fadas e histórias de natureza
fabular ou mítica, projetadas agora para uma sociedade contemporânea; ABSTRACT: The purpose of this work focus on the aesthetics exploration of the illustrative character
of the poetry book The awaken Beauty, from the poetess Adília Lopes. It begins with an
interpretative reflection about the author and its work, by analyzing some of its symbolic
patterns, of hers poetic expression, considering also the new patterns, which the new
millennium and its consumption society leads us to.
In that kind of sense the pictorials possibilities are represented and explored, in an
illustrative way, that adjusts to the allegoric world, for which the author sends us in The
Awaken Beauty.
Representations that are born again from the fairy tales and the mythical or fable stories,
projected now for Contemporary Society

A teoria integracionista de Marcel Mauss / Marcel Mauss’ integrationist theory
Theoretical research that correlates, in line with the elaboration by Marcel Mauss (1872-1950), the concept of three social obligations – of giving, receiving and returning goods – which was elaborated in The Gift (1925), and his hierarchy of levels of collective integration, covered by his unfinished work The Nation that predates The Gift. Such theoretical-methodological correlation would stimulate an approach that comprehends both the Maussian formulation of modes of reciprocity (1931) and its particular application to the typology of societies that adopted it, including explaining current tendencies of collective reconfiguration as a distinct characteristic of national integration.Pesquisa teórica que correlaciona, na elaboração intelectual de Marcel Mauss (1872-1950), sua classificação de níveis de integração coletiva, contida na obra inacabada A nação, ao conceito de tríplice obrigação de doações, recebimentos e retribuições de quaisquer bens – especialmente formulado no Ensaio sobre a dádiva (1925) – e à formulação ulterior dos modos de reciprocidade (1931). Tal correlação teórico-metodológica ensejaria tanto sua aplicação específica à tipologia maussiana de sociedades quanto, também, para explicar tendências atuais de reconfiguração coletiva e distintas da integração nacional.====Theoretical research that correlates, in line with the elaboration by Marcel Mauss (1872-1950), the concept of three social obligations – of giving, receiving and returning goods – which was elaborated in The Gift (1925), and his hierarchy of levels of collective integration, covered by his unfinished work The Nation that predates The Gift.
