We present an aberrant coloured individual of Southern crested caracara (Caracara plancus) from Brazil. The individual has predominantly white plumage with a few dark grey feathers on the body; the legs and face are yellow and the eyes are melanic. The individual was observed in the municipality of Nossa Senhora Aparecida, state of Sergipe, northeastern Brazil. The animal presented signs of sun burn and currently is hosted in the Parque dos Falcões, Sergipe, Brazil.

Waterlogging is a shallow flooding in the area of the root and in some parts of the shoot. It is one of the most common types of flooding in agricultural areas. The duration of waterlogging affects plant growth and yield in response to stress by interacting with their ability to adapt. Plant adaptability during waterlogging affects their resilience to post-waterlogging and recovery conditions. In this research, we examined the tolerance of Capsicum frutescens to short (1 day), medium (3 days) and long (10 days) duration of waterlogging, as well as its implications on post-waterlogging, recovery, reproductive phase and harvest. Adaptability and growth rates were used to determine plant tolerance to waterlogging stress. The percentage of wilting, root damage, survival, stomatal response, formation of hypertrophic lenticels, adventitious roots, photosynthetic pigment content, height, leaf number, plant biomass, flower number, and fruit fresh weight were used to measure adaptability and growth. The results showed that a longer duration of waterlogging increased root damage and decreased plant growth, affecting photosynthetic pigment content, leaf number, root and shoot biomass. The ability to regulate the stomata opening, the formation of hypertrophic lenticels and adventitious roots enabled plants not to wilt permanently, surviving post-waterlogging conditions and during recovery, growing during reproductive phase and producing yields. The critical duration of waterlogging at the beginning of the vegetative phase occurred at 10 days, and pepper suffered a drastic reduction in vegetative and reproductive growth and yields. The maintenance of the root system and the development of adaptive mechanisms increased plant survival, thereby affecting yield.
涝渍是指根部和茎部某些部位发生浅层淹水。这是农业地区最常见的洪水类型之一。涝渍的持续时间通过与植物的适应能力相互作用,影响植物对胁迫的生长和产量。植物涝渍期的适应性影响其对涝后和恢复条件的适应能力。本研究研究了辣椒对涝渍短(1天)、中(3天)和长(10天)的耐受性及其对涝渍后、恢复、繁殖期和收获的影响。适应性和生长速率是测定植物对涝渍胁迫耐受性的指标。萎蔫的百分比,根损伤,生存、气孔反应,形成肥厚性皮孔,不定根,光合色素含量、高度、叶片数、植物、花朵数,和水果鲜重是用来测量适应性和增长。结果表明,涝渍时间越长,植株根系损伤越大,生长速度越慢,影响光合色素含量、叶片数、根、梢生物量;调节气孔开放、肥厚皮孔和不定根形成的能力使植物不会永久枯萎,在涝后条件下和恢复期间存活下来,在繁殖阶段生长并生产产量。营养期开始涝渍的关键时间是10天,辣椒的营养和生殖生长和产量都急剧下降。根系的维持和适应机制的发展提高了植物的存活率,从而影响产量。

The article, based on printed material about Italian and foreign gardens and on unpublished documents preserved in different Milanese archives, aims at reconstructing the history of the Brera Botanical Garden in the period between 1982 and 2001. This is a period of particular interest in that it illustrates how the Lombard and State institutions, after leaving the Garden in a state of neglect for many decades, went on, while deciding to restore it, to fail to understand its value, risking with their plans to misrepresent its history. However, over the years, these plans were dropped and replaced with a restoration job carried out according to the most modern historical-scientific guidelines of The Florence Charter (1982). Thanks to this restoration, the Garden was enabled to redefine its role and vocation.
这篇文章基于意大利和外国花园的印刷材料,以及米兰不同档案馆保存的未发表的文件,旨在重建布雷拉植物园1982年至2001年期间的历史。这是一个特别有趣的时期,因为它说明了伦巴第和国家机构在离开花园几十年后,在决定修复它的同时,如何不了解它的价值,冒着计划歪曲其历史的风险。然而,多年来,这些计划被放弃,取而代之的是根据《佛罗伦萨宪章》(1982)中最现代的历史科学指导方针进行的修复工作。由于这次修复,花园得以重新定义其角色和使命。

Insects are declining at an alarming rate in many parts of Europe and this also applies to butterflies, one of the most well-studied groups of insects. They are popular with the public and are considered good biodiversity indicators. Bosco Fontana, an isolated protected area, which contains one of the best preserved lowland forests of northern Italy, is surrounded by a highly modified landscape and is known to host some important butterfly populations. To investigate the butterflies and burnets, a total of 22 standard surveys, lasting 25 minutes each, were carried out in four different habitat types of Bosco Fontana in the years 2020 and 2021. The surveys confirmed the presence of 36 species of butterflies and 3 species of burnets for the reserve. Statistical analysis revealed that the butterfly and burnet assemblages of the grasslands, ecotones and forests were distinct, but similar in the two study years (datasets available as supplementary information). Many nemoral species were confirmed for Bosco Fontana, with relict populations of Favonius quercus and Argynnis paphia present only in a few residual forests in the Po Plain. Five species typical of grasslands and other open habitats and belonging to the local species pool of the Po Plain in the province of Mantua, were never detected at Bosco Fontana in the study years. The ecological significance of their absence is discussed.
在欧洲的许多地方,昆虫正以惊人的速度减少,这也适用于蝴蝶,这是研究得最多的昆虫群体之一。它们受到公众的欢迎,被认为是良好的生物多样性指标。Bosco Fontana是一个孤立的保护区,拥有意大利北部保存最完好的低地森林之一,周围被高度改造的景观所包围,并以拥有一些重要的蝴蝶种群而闻名。为了调查蝴蝶和burnets,在2020年和2021年,在Bosco Fontana的四种不同的栖息地类型中进行了总共22次标准调查,每次持续25分钟。调查证实,保护区内有36种蝴蝶和3种斑蝶。统计分析表明,在两个研究年度,草原、过渡带和森林的蝴蝶和burnett的组合不同,但相似(数据集可作为补充资料)。在丰塔纳河流域发现了许多松木属植物,在波河平原的一些残林中只发现了黄松属(Favonius quercus)和松果属(Argynnis paphia)的残余种群。5种典型的草原和其他开放生境物种,属于曼图亚省波河平原当地物种库,在研究期间从未在Bosco Fontana发现过。讨论了它们缺失的生态意义。

Squaloraja Riley 1833 (Holocephala: Squalorajidae) from the Lower Jurassic of Osteno Konservat-Lagerstätte (Como, NW Italy) Squaloraja Riley 1833(全头目:squalorajdae)来自奥斯坦诺Konservat-Lagerstätte (Como, NW意大利)下侏罗统

A remarkable, complete specimen of a squalorajid holocephalian is described for the first time from the Lower Jurassic (lower Sinemurian) rocks of Osteno (Como, NW Italy). It is the only such specimen known from the locality and belongs to a (possibly juvenile) female. The Italian specimen is assigned to Squaloraja sp., and has a large dorsoventrally flattened head, long rostrum, a single mandibular tooth plate on each lower jaw, a well-developed synarcual, thick notochordal sheath calcifications, and only slightly reduced squamation comprising distinctive placoid scales with stellate bases. There is no ethmoid canal, dorsal fin or fin spine. The Lower Jurassic succession (‘Lower Lias’) of Lyme Regis (Dorset, UK) has yielded only two incomplete purported female specimens of the type species of the genus, Squaloraja polyspondyla, thus restricting potential comparison with the Italian specimen. This new record of the genus expands the known palaeogeographical distribution of this rare holocephalian.

The Unnamed Plateau (Western Desert of Egypt). New geological and geoarchaeological data from an exploration in a remote area 未命名的高原(埃及西部沙漠)。从一个偏远地区的勘探得到的新的地质和地质考古资料

The Unnamed Plateau is a low plateau in the Western Desert of Egypt close to the Libyan border, about halfway between the Gilf Kebir to the north and Jebel Uweinat to the south. It is little known and seldom visited. In the past, we have conducted three field surveys in order to assess its geomorphic features and the human presence in the Holocene. During our explorations we have found a Paleozoic fossil plant, which allows to ascribe the sedimentary cover to the late Paleozoic (as in the Geologic Map of Egypt, 1981), not Mesozoic, as indicated in the 1987 Geologic Map. We could retrace and walk an ancient mountain path connecting the two slopes of the Plateau and leading to a fossil lake. The area was visited by hunters-gatherers and perhaps the first nomadic herders moving north-south, until the mid-IV Millennium BC, when the final desiccation of the Eastern Sahara pushed them out definitely.
未命名高原是埃及西部沙漠中靠近利比亚边境的一个低高原,大约在北部的吉尔夫·凯比尔和南部的杰贝勒·乌韦纳特之间。它鲜为人知,也很少有人去参观。在过去,我们进行了三次实地调查,以评估其地貌特征和人类在全新世的存在。在我们的勘探过程中,我们发现了一个古生代植物化石,这使得沉积盖层属于晚古生代(如1981年埃及地质图所示),而不是1987年地质图所示的中生代。我们可以沿着一条古老的山路往回走,这条山路连接着高原的两个斜坡,通向一个化石湖。狩猎采集者来到了这个地区,也许是第一批向南迁移的游牧民族,直到公元前4千年中期,东撒哈拉沙漠的最后干燥才把他们赶了出去。

We used 52 camera traps to survey mammal species in the Lepini Mountains (Lazio, Central Italy) during three trapping sessions. Thirteen mammal species have been recorded. Compared to data based on previous opportunistic observations (2000-2018), camera trapping has quickly increased knowledge about the distribution of species, especially for elusive ones. We modelled species and average community occupancy also considering habitat covariates in a hierarchical modelling framework. Occupancy at community level was positively impacted by woods and negatively impacted by open habitats, indicating that the ongoing reforestation of the area may favour mammal diversity. Open surfaces have a negative effect on the presence of Sciurus vulgaris, a species for which our study confirms extensive recolonization of the area. We have also shown that woods increase the probability of occupation by Canis lupus and Felis silvestris, confirming that these species could be negatively impacted by increased deforestation.
在意大利中部的勒皮尼山脉(Lazio, Central Italy),我们使用了52个相机陷阱,在3个陷阱期间调查了哺乳动物种类。有记录的哺乳动物有13种。与之前基于机会主义观察(2000-2018)的数据相比,相机陷阱迅速增加了对物种分布的了解,特别是对难以捉摸的物种。我们还在分层建模框架中考虑了栖息地协变量,对物种和平均群落占用率进行了建模。群落水平的占用率受到森林的正面影响,而受到开放生境的负面影响,表明该地区正在进行的再造林可能有利于哺乳动物的多样性。开放的表面对寻常山茱萸的存在有负面影响,我们的研究证实了该物种在该地区的广泛重新定居。我们还发现,森林增加了狼犬(Canis lupus)和山羊(Felis silvestris)占据的可能性,证实了这些物种可能受到森林砍伐增加的负面影响。

Based on field, herbarium and bibliographic research, we report distributional data for 21 species and subspecies (11 natives included 1 regional alien and 1 cryptogenic, 10 aliens) whose presence has been ascertained for some administrative regions of central Italy. In particular, 10 taxa are new or confirmed to Abruzzo, 7 to Umbria, 2 to Lazio, and 1 to Marche. Some taxa are particularly interesting from a phytogeographical or conservational point of view. Specifically, Astragalus exscapus and Salix pentandra are very rare in Italy. The new findings of Erythronium dens-canis and Thesium alpinum, in Umbria and Lazio respectively, represent the southernmost limits of their Italian distribution.
在野外、植物标本室和文献资料的基础上,我们报告了在意大利中部一些行政区域发现的21种和亚种(11种本地种,1种区域外来种,1种隐生种,10种外来种)的分布数据。特别是,Abruzzo有10个新的或确认的分类群,翁布里亚有7个,拉齐奥有2个,马尔凯有1个。从植物地理学或保护学的观点来看,有些分类群特别有趣。具体来说,黄芪和五角柳在意大利非常罕见。分别在翁布里亚和拉齐奥发现的赤藓属(Erythronium dens-canis)和高山藓属(Thesium alpinum)是它们在意大利分布的最南端。

In this paper, based on field, herbarium and bibliographic research, new distributional data for 16 species and subspecies (13 natives and 3 aliens) are reported for Ventotene and Santo Stefano islands. Particularly, 6 are new or confirmed to Ventotene and 8 to Santo Stefano. One species is excluded from the flora of Ventotene and one is to be considered locally extinct. One native and one alien are new to Lazio administrative region.
本文在野外、植物标本馆和文献资料的基础上,报道了Ventotene和Santo Stefano岛上16种和亚种(13种本地种和3种外来种)的新分布资料。特别是,6人是新的或确认到文托特内,8人到圣斯特凡诺。一种被排除在文托特内的植物区系之外,另一种被认为在当地已经灭绝。一名本地人和一名外国人是拉齐奥行政区域的新成员。
