title: Occurrence and ecological implication of a tropical anguillid eel, Anguilla marmorata, in Brunei Darussalam, Borneo Island

description: ABSTRACT Tropical anguillid eels account for two-thirds of the 19 species in Anguilla Schrank, 1798. However, information on the species diversity, geographical distribution, and life histories of the tropical eels is very limited. Recent studies suggested that morphological species identification of the tropical anguillid eels should be validated by molecular analysis for accurate identification. After surveying for three years, two anguillid eels were found in Brunei Darussalam, Borneo Island. They were firstly identified as Anguilla marmorata Quoy & Gaimard, 1824 using morphological analysis and further gene analysis of cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) confirmed the species identification. This study is the first comprehensive description of A. marmorata in Brunei Darussalam, Borneo Island. Furthermore, it is also the first study to validate two anguillid eels collected from the tropical Bonin Islands of Japan as A. marmorata by means of morphological and COI analyses. The molecular phylogenetic tree and haplotype network analyses suggest that A. marmorata found in Brunei Darussalam would belong to the North Pacific population of the westernmost distribution.

title: Species composition and community structure of dung beetles (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae) compared among savanna and forest formations in the southwestern Brazilian Cerrado

description: ABSTRACT Although dung beetles are important members of ecological communities and indicators of ecosystem quality, species diversity, and how it varies over space and habitat types, remains poorly understood in the Brazilian Cerrado. We compared dung beetle communities among plant formations in the Serra Azul State Park (SASP) in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Sampling (by baited pitfall and flight-interception traps) was carried out in 2012 in the Park in four habitat types: two different savanna formations (typical and open) and two forest formations (seasonally deciduous and gallery). A total of 5,400 individuals collected comprised 57 species in 22 genera. Typical savanna had the greatest species richness and abundance, followed by open savanna and deciduous forest, while the gallery forest had the fewest species but high abundance. Tunnelers (one of three main nesting behavior guilds) showed the greatest richness and abundance (except in the gallery forest, where one dweller species was extremely abundant) in all plant formations. We found that species richness and abundance of the dung beetle community are influenced by differences among plant formations. Habitat heterogeneity in the different plant formations along with anthropic influences (fire, habitat fragmentation) are cited as important factors that explain guild and species richness and distribution patterns. These results emphasize the importance of protected areas, such as SASP, for the maintenance and conservation of species diversity in the Brazilian Cerrado.

title: Dragonflies (Insecta: Odonata) from Mananciais da Serra, a Tropical-Araucaria Forest ecotonal remnant in the southern Atlantic Forest, state of Paraná, Brazil

description: ABSTRACT This study provides a comprehensive checklist of Odonata species from the protected area of Mananciais da Serra. The survey was conducted in the endangered Atlantic Forest domain at the southern Serra do Mar mountain chain within a well-preserved area in the municipality of Piraquara, state of Paraná, Brazil. Adults and larvae were sampled between June 2017 and March 2020 using different techniques in numerous mesohabitats, including phytotelmata, pools, small streams, and large reservoirs. A total of 1,708 specimens from 9 families, 43 genera and 84 species were sampled resulting in 53 new records for the state of Paraná, almost doubling the known occurrence records for dragonflies and damselflies in that state. Furthermore, two hitherto undescribed females from the genera Planiplax and Heteragrion, four ultimate stadium larvae from Planiplax, Neocordulia, Heteragrion, and Acanthagrion, and five undescribed species were detected, one each from the genera Heteragrion, Progomphus, Brechmorhoga, Erythrodiplax, and Dasythemis. The estimated richness of odonates in this area is greater than 100 species, while the observed richness corresponding to almost 10% of all Odonata species in Brazil, the species-richest country in the world. These results reiterate the need to investigate undersampled areas to improve knowledge on diversity, taxonomy, and distribution of neotropical species. Finally, taxonomic notes for some species, including the rare corduliid Neocordulia mambucabensis Costa & T.C. Santos, 2000, are provided.

title: Reproductive biology and recruitment of bluefish Pomatomus saltatrix (Perciformes: Pomatomidae) in the southwestern Atlantic

description: ABSTRACT The bluefish, Pomatomus saltatrix (Linneus 1766) is captured by industrial, artisanal, and recreational fisheries throughout its distribution range. The reproductive biology of P. saltatrix in the southwestern Atlantic was studied using 1,102 specimens captured by the Brazilian commercial fleet between March 2014 and December 2015. The recruitment period was identified from records of juveniles in experimental beach seine hauls carried out on sandy beaches in the external sector of Guanabara Bay for four years (2012-2015). Based on the reproductive indices and on the macro- and microscopic analyses of the gonads, spawning peaks were identified in autumn and spring. The size at first maturity was estimated at 35.5, 38.3, and 37.4 cm for females, males, and general, respectively. Ovary analyses and measurements of the oocyte diameters indicated that bluefish are multiple spawners with asynchronous oocyte development. The batch fecundity estimate was 202,752.5 eggs and ranged from 9,800.9 to 426,787.0 eggs. The species reproduces throughout the entire study area, but it is more active in the south of Arraial do Cabo. The young-of-the-year were recorded on shallow water in all seasons, with modal peaks in the summer months. The parameters estimated in this study expand and update information on this species, providing important data for the evaluation and fisheries management of the stock of P. saltatrix in the southwestern Atlantic.

title: Gonadal development and sexuality of Larkinia grandis (Arcida: Arcidae) inhabiting southeastern Gulf of California

description: ABSTRACT Larkinia grandis (Broderip & G.B. Sowerby I, 1829), an important fishing resource for Mexican communities, is an Arcidae clam. It is also considered a species with aquaculture potential. In this work we investigated the gonadal phases and sexuality in a population of L. grandis in the Gulf of California. Our findings support the hypothesis that there is one male per female in the population studied. It also documents that the shape, position and color of the gonads of L. grandis are consistent with observations in other Arcidae species. Additionally, five gonadal phases are differentiated and described in males and females (development, mature, spawning, post-spawning and resting), with a noticeable presence of brown cells during post-spawning and the onset of the resting phase, suggesting that those cells are involved in the reabsorption of remnants. Additionally, asynchronous gametogenesis in males, synchronic gametogenesis in females and batch spawning are defined. The results of this contribution can be used in the efforts to protect this bivalve.

title: The Process Of Rewriting In The Teaching Of The Genre Review

description: The writing of academic genres demands proficiency and reflection and must be viewed as a continuous rewriting process marked by many linguistic-textual adjustments. Believing in the possibility of teaching this process to the students, we discuss in this paper the rewriting of the genre 'review' by students of the undergraduate course of Languages and Literatures from the Federal University of Ceara - Brazil. Through Fabre-Cols' theoretical propositions about the rewriting of texts and Swales' theory of genre, we analyzed the changes that the students made to the genre for a subject called "Reading and Writing of Academic Texts". The data show that all the changes are directly related to the genre's characteristic rhetorical moves, which the students were able to internalize during the oriented rewriting activity in the classroom.

title: Pronouns also Used as Terms: a Contextual Analysis of the Pronouns yo and ello in Psychoanalysis Articles in Portuguese-Spanish Translation

description: Psychoanalysis is a field in which articles on a wide variety of topics abound and in which general lexical items are used as terms, thus hindering both the recognition of terms and their translation. Moreover, the same lexical unit can be used throughout a text both with terminological and plain-language meanings, and the line between them is rather blurred. In the present paper, we analyze two lexical units in Spanish that can be used as terms and as words - yo and ello - and their respective equivalents in Portuguese: id and ego or eu and isso. A corpus-based study was carried out for the contextualized analysis of these two lexical units, using the theoretical background of corpus linguistics, the functionalistic approach to translation, and the Communicative Theory of Terminology.

title: THE ROLE OF GESTURES IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF MULTIMODAL METAPHORS: analysis of a political-electoral debate

description: This paper intends to analyze the role of gestures in the construction of multimodal metaphors in the "political-electoral debate" genre. Theoretically, we considered that metaphoric gestures can be analyzed as expressions of conceptual metaphors. We mainly approached and illustrated the importance of spatial orientation in the emergence of the metaphors in the political discourse. Methodologically, we have selected four sequences of a second-tour debate. Starting from the operational concept of gesture excursion, we specifically observed the multimodal metaphoricity in speech and gesture compounds. After analyzing the metaphors found in the debate sequences, we established a continuumbetween metaphors of a conventional nature and those of a new nature. We also tried to establish a comparative relation between the metaphors used by the two candidates, Dilma Rousseff (from the Labor Party) and José Serra (from the Social Democratic Party).

title: The negotiation of morality through the production of justification in the child and adolescent reconstruction of the narrative of sexual abuse: a situated study

description: This study, based on the theoretical principles of Ethnomethodology (GARFINKEL, 1967) and Conversation Analysis (SACKS, 1992), is a qualitative investigation of spoken interactions between a Child Protective Services officer and sexually abused children or adolescents. The aim is to observe how the experience of the abuse is signified and realigned according to moral and social expectations (BERGMAN, 1998). The analysis of the interactions shows that adolescents invest more in moral defense (DREW, 1988), while children display weaker engagement in this type of activity. These data reveal that adolescents probably guide themselves toward the paradox of victimization and culpability displayed by victims of sexual abuse (SANTOS, 2002), showing a higher degree of socialization concerning the activity of narrating stories with moral implications and the ability of performing the "ideal" victim (TRINCH, 2013).

title: Language mosaic in bimodal bilingual children: experimental studies

description: Abstract: This article considers the method used in an experimental study investigating the bilingual, bimodal development of deaf children with cochlear implants (CI) and hearing children with deaf parents (Kodas), between four and eight years of age. In addition to these two groups of children, deaf children of deaf parents or hearing parents, and hearing adults who had deaf parents, participated as control groups. First, we describe our experimental study and explain how we organized the data-collection fairs. Next, we outline the tests used in the study, which consider the linguistic aspects of Brazilian Sign Language (Libras) and Brazilian Portuguese (BP) and make up the linguistic mosaic of these children. We conclude with some comments on our preliminary results drawn from the data so far.
