. Megaspiridae include land snails with a tall spire. They occur in Brazil, New Guinea and Australia. Megaspira Lea, 1839 is distributed through the central and southeast regions of Brazil There is controversy regarding the number of species in the genus, and their taxonomic status. The characters used to identify Megaspira include a large cylindrical shell and internal armature in the columella. The goal of the present study is to describe a new species for the genus, based on shell morphology, microsculpture and the inner anatomy. These anatomic characters had not been described before for any of the included species. The material was collected at the Jararaca trail, Ilha Grande (Angra dos Reis, state of Rio de Janeiro). Seven linear measurements were taken from the shells. Megaspira adenticulata sp. nov. differs from the other species of the genus by not having apertural lamella in the shell aperture or in the columella in adult specimens. Also, the shell does not have light brown spots, as observed in other species of Megaspira . The shell has a mean of 16 whorls and height of 27 mm. It is smaller in average size than the shell of other described species. The new species was found under leaf litter, especially near rocks and in shallow soil.
. 大螺科包括有高尖顶的陆地蜗牛。它们出现在巴西、新几内亚和澳大利亚。Megaspira Lea, 1839分布于巴西中部和东南部地区,关于该属的种数及其分类地位存在争议。用于识别巨螺的特征包括一个大的圆柱形外壳和小柱中的内部电枢。本研究的目的是在壳形态、微雕刻和内部解剖的基础上描述该属的一个新种。这些解剖特征以前没有被描述过。这些材料是在Jararaca小道,Ilha Grande (Angra dos Reis,巴西里约热内卢州)收集的。对炮弹进行了7次线性测量。在成年标本的壳孔或小柱上没有孔洞状的片层,这与该属的其他种不同。此外,壳上没有浅棕色的斑点,这在其他种类的巨螺中是观察不到的。外壳平均有16个螺纹,高度为27毫米。它的平均尺寸比其他已描述物种的壳小。新物种是在落叶层下发现的,特别是在岩石附近和浅层土壤中。

. Although stable isotopes have been increasingly used in ornithology since 1980 in many places, Brazil has been slow in adopting this methodology, especially when it comes to terrestrial birds. The most common elements in bird ecology studies are carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and oxygen stable isotopes, which provide information on diet, trophic interactions, habitat use, migration, geographic patterns, and physiology. It is important that Brazilian ornithologists become aware of the potential of stable isotope analysis in ecological studies, and the shortcomings of this tool. The use of stable isotopes to study bird ecology has great potential in Brazil, since many ecological questions about Neotropical birds can be addressed by it (e.g., resource and habitat use, migratory routes, isotopic niches, anthropogenic impacts, individual specialization). Brazilian museums and other Natural History collections can provide samples to study long-term temporal dynamics in bird ecology. Additionally, the integration of avian tissue sample information into a database may increase the collaboration among researchers and promote sample reuse in a variety of studies. All biomes in Brazil have been under pressure from anthropogenic impacts (e
