13. Habitat suitability of Anopheles vector species and association with human malaria in the Atlantic Forest in south-eastern Brazil
Every year, autochthonous cases of Plasmodium vivax malaria occur in low-endemicity areas of Vale do Ribeira in the south-eastern part of the Atlantic Forest, state of São Paulo, where Anopheles cruzii and Anopheles bellator are considered the primary vectors. However, other species in the subgenus Nyssorhynchus of Anopheles (e.g., Anopheles marajoara) are

16. Características da precipitação pluviométrica do nordeste brasileiro e seus padrões de acoplamento com as TSM do Pacífico Equatorial e Atlântico Sul. / Rainfall characteristics in northeastern brazil and their patterns coupling with sst equatorial Pacific and South Atlantic.
The eastern coast of the Northeast Brazil (NEB) is a region where transient weather systems interact with local systems, modulating their frequency and intensity. Understanding the mechanisms of such interactions may be instrumental in explaining the observed precipitation patterns in this region. The objective of this work is quite within this scope and tak

17. Feeding habit of the Brazilian tapir, Tapirus terrestris (Perissodactyla: Tapiridae) in a vegetation transition zone in south-eastern Brazil
Tapirs are considered generalist herbivores and the differences in the proportions of dietary items are often attributed to differences in the habitats where individuals live. This study characterized the feeding habit of Tapirus terrestris (Linnaeus, 1758) in a nature reserve in south-eastern Brazil, located in a region considered a transition zone between

18. O CAMPO TERMO-HIGROMÉTRICO INTRA-URBANO E A FORMAÇÃO DE ILHAS DE CALOR E DE FRESCOR URBANAS EM SANTA MARIA/RS / THE THERMO-HYGROMETRIC FIELD INTRA-URBAN AND FORMATION OF HEAT ISLANDS AND URBAN COOL IN SANTA MARIA/RS
Urbanization and the changes imposed by man disturb the complex natural system, modifying the elements and characteristics of climate on a local scale. Considering the influence of urbanization as derived from the fact that the local climate and responsible for the generation of an urban environment specifically, this work was to analyze the field thermo-hyg

19. Characterization of the Brazilians species of Myotis Kaup, 1929 (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) and test on the phylogeography of Myotis nigricans (Schinz, 1821) and Myotis riparius Handley, 1960 / Caracterização das espécies brasileiras de Myotis Kaup, 1829 (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae) e ensaio sobre filogeografia de Myotis nigricans (Schinz, 1821) e Myotis riparius Handley, 1960
Myotis is a highly diverse genus, with 103 species recognized so far, in addition to another 94 subspecies whose taxonomical status has not yet been completely evaluated. Twelve species are known to South America, among which five are considered polytypic, including Myotis nigricans. This taxon in considered a species complex. In order to characterize, both

20. Sistemática de Anthurium sect. Urospadix (Araceae) / Systematics of Anthurium sect. Urospadix (Araceae)
We present a phylogenetic analysis of Anthurium sect. Urospadix and related groups (Araceae). The genus has traditionally been considered taxonomically difficult and there has been little resolution of relationship within it. We performed parsimony analyses on morphological and molecular, and combined data sets. Anatomical characters have been used in classi

21. A associação entre o zooplâncton e Vibrio cholerae O1 e O139 no complexo estuarino de Santos - Bertioga e Plataforma adjacente / The association between zooplankton and Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139 on Santos-Bertioga estuarine system and adjacent shelf
Vibrio cholerae is an autochthonous bacterium in the sea and may cause serious health problems when pathogenic strains are accidentally ingested. V. cholerae are found associated with copepods in concentrations up to a thousand times higher than the free bacteria in the water. If ingested, a single copepod may have enough bacteria necessary for human infecti

23. Floral resource for birds in an Atlantic montane raiforest site : seasonality and vertical distribution / Recurso floral para aves em uma comunidade de Mata Atlantica de encosta : sazonalidade e distribuição vertical
Hummingbirds are considered the most important vertebrate pollinators in the Neotropics. Other flowervisiting birds are often considered as parasites of the flower-hummingbird relationship, not presenting the high degree of specialization for nectarivory as hummingbirds. Although ornithophilous flowers are very showy, displaying colorful floral parts or stru
