    <i>Trichogramma iracildae</i> Querino & Zucchi, 2003 <p> <b>Diagnosis</b>. Genital capsule broad, ventral processes clearly set far apart, very short intervolsellar process with apex bifid or pointed, posterior extension of dorsal lamina short and apex blunt.</p> <p> <b>Comments</b>. <i>Trichogramma iracildae</i> is separated from all other South American species by the usually bifid intervolsellar process and the ventral processes located far apart (Querino & Zucchi, 2003b). This feature is also present in <i>T. marthae</i> Goodpasture, 1986 (a North American species), but in <i>T. iracildae</i> the ventral processes are far from each other, the intervolsellar process is usually bifid and the ventral ridge is long. Based on analysis of the ITS2 rDNA sequences (GenBank ID AY182760.1), <i>T</i>. <i>iracildae</i> differs from all other known species (Almeida & Stouthamer 2015).

    <i>Trichogramma distinctum</i> Zucchi, 1988 <p> <b>Diagnosis</b>. Flagelliform setae moderately short, with apex tapering abruptly; dorsal lamina with slight basal constriction and concave laterally; intervolsellar process distinct, not extending to apex of volsellae.</p> <p> <b>Comments</b>. <i>Trichogramma distinctum</i> is similar to <i>T. galloi</i> and <i>T. jalmirezi</i>, more closely resembling the former. It differs from <i>T. galloi</i> in having the intervolsellar process not extending to the apex of the volsellae and the dorsal lamina with a wider posterior extension than in <i>T. galloi</i>. The most conspicuous difference separating <i>T. distinctum</i> from <i>T. jalmirezi</i> is the marked constriction in the dorsal lamina of the latter. <i>Trichogramma galloi</i> and <i>T. distinctum</i> also differ biologically, as <i>T. distinctum</i> requires higher temperatures than <i>T. galloi</i> when these parasitoids are reared on factitious hosts under laboratory conditions (Parra <i>et al</i>. 1991).

    <i>Trichogramma tupiense</i> Querino & Zucchi, 2003 <p> <b>Diagnosis</b>. Scutellum with long anterior setae; ventral process distinct, very close to base of intervolsellar process; dorsal lamina without basal constriction; intervolsellar process relatively short, extending to base of volsellae.</p> <p> <b>Comments</b>. <i>Trichogramma tupiense</i> is similar to <i>T. bruni</i>, from which it is distinguished by a more elongate intervolsellar process, ventral processes more distinct and positioned at the base of the intervolsellar process, and the ventral ridge shorter and less distinct. In <i>T. bruni</i>, the ventral processes are in a more anterior position, the ventral ridge is longer and extends beyond the middle of the genital capsule, and the anterior setae of the scutellum are much shorter.

    <i>Trichogramma esalqueanum</i> Querino & Zucchi, 2003 <p> <b>Diagnosis</b>. Flagelliform setae long; basiconic sensilla oval-elongate; scutellum with long blackish anterior setae; genital capsule elongate; dorsal lamina short, with blunt apex at level of intervolsellar process, which is short.</p> <p> <b>Comments</b>. This species is similar to <i>T. bruni</i>, but differs in having elongated basiconic sensilla, scutellum with long anterior setae, and short dorsal lamina extending to the level of the intervolsellar process. Samples of <i>T</i>. <i>esalqueanum</i> were analyzed for the ITS2 sequence of rDNA (GenBank ID AY182763.1), and the results showed that it differs from all other previously known species (Almeida & Stouthamer 2015).

    Everyday Wonders Meraviglie Quotidiane Luigi Caccia Dominioni and Milano: the corso Italia complex

    No full text
    Tra le opere di Luigi Caccia Dominioni, il complesso edilizio di corso Italia (1957-64) appare la sintesi perfetta tra invenzione spaziale e dialogo con la struttura urbana del nucleo antico di Milano. Le due ‘torrette’ in tessere di ceramica rossa che inquadrano l’arretramento centrale, la lunga galleria che attraversa l’edificio con il pavimento a mosaico di Francesco Somaini, infine la sorpresa del cortile che raccoglie insieme corpi edilizi eterogenei per volume, materiali, aperture e sintassi architettonica dimostrano una libertà compositiva permessa solo ai grandi talenti. L’installazione/mostra progettata da CZA-Cino Zucchi Architetti per Freespace – il titolo della 16. Biennale di Architettura di Venezia – diventa l’occasione per una serie di letture tematiche del lavoro dell’architetto milanese Luigi Caccia Dominioni (1913-2016). Il suo complesso edilizio multifunzionale in corso Italia (1957-64), costruito in un quartiere pesantemente colpito dai bombardamenti della seconda guerra mondiale, dispiega una complessa narrazione spaziale dalla scala della città a quella del materiale e del dettaglio. Il volume guarda a questa realtà a molte facce attraverso documenti originali dall’Archivio LCD, un nuovo servizio fotografico di Cino Zucchi, e ricostruzioni tridimensionali appositamente realizzate. I saggi di Cino Zucchi e Orsina Simona Pierini leggono questo “capolavoro silenzioso” sullo sfondo del rapporto tra Caccia Dominioni e la sua città e quello del suo peculiare approccio progettuale, mostrando la sua rilevanza nel pensiero architettonico contemporaneo.Among the works of Luigi Caccia Dominioni, the building complex in Corso Italia (1957-64) appears as the perfect synthesis between spatial invention and dialogue with the urban structure of Milan’s ancient nucleus. The two ‘towers’ in small red ceramic tiles which frame the central setback, the long gallery which crosses the building with the floor mosaic by Francesco Somaini, and the final surprise of the courtyard which holds together building bodies different in height, material, finishing and architectural syntax demonstrate a design freedom allowed only to great talents. The installation/exposition designed by CZA-Cino Zucchi Architetti for Freespace – the title of the 16th Architecture Biennale in Venice – becomes the occasion for a series of thematic readings of the work of the Milanese architect Luigi Caccia Dominioni (1913-2016). His multi-functional building complex in Corso Italia (1957-64), built in a quarter heavily damaged by WWII bombs, unfolds a complex spatial narration from the scale of the city to the one of material and detail. The volume looks at its multi-faceted reality through original documents from the LCD Archive, a new set of photographs by Cino Zucchi, and custom-produced three-dimensional reconstructions. The essays by Cino Zucchi and Orsina Simona Pierini read this ‘silent masterpiece’ on the backdrop of Caccia Dominioni’s relationship with its city and of its peculiar design approach, pointing out its relevance in contemporary architectural thought

    Introduzione

    Questo volume è il frutto di una riflessione a più voci sull’attualità della pedagogia di Maria Montessori per la realizzazione di servizi educativi rivolti alla prima infanzia. Si approfondiscono quelle strategie didattiche, ancor oggi estremamente attuali negli aspetti legati all’aiuto alla vita e nello strumento principe dell’osservazione sistematica dei bambini, per lo sviluppo di modalità educative che non li ostacolino nelle loro espressioni, ma che siano in sintonia con le loro personali caratteristiche e i loro bisogni più profondi. Il volume si compone di due parti: la prima contiene contributi di carattere storico e teorico, mentre la seconda presenta percorsi formativi ed esperienze realizzate all’interno di nidi gestiti dalla Cooperativa CADIAI di Bologna. L’intenzione è quella di mettere in evidenza come l’incontro con questa grande educatrice del passato abbia generato cambiamenti di rilievo sia negli ambienti del nido che nell’atteggiamento dell’adulto con il bambino, presentati dai gruppi di lavoro che li hanno attuati non come modelli, ma come possibili – e stimolanti – piste operative

    Sexual differentiation of mammalian frontal cortex

    No full text
    The pattern of distribution of the progesterone binding sites was examined in selected nuclei of the brain of male and female rat. In female rats the frontal cortex resulted to be the region with the highest concentration of 3H R5020 binding sites. However, in male rats the same region showed very little progestin binding activity. When female rats were androgenized via neonatal exposure to testosterone, the progestin binding activity of the frontal cortex became similar to that we observed in male rats. The present investigation indicates that sexual differentiation of the rat brain may include also brain regions not clearly involved in sex related functions like the frontal cortex
