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.

The article, based on printed material about Italian and foreign gardens and on unpublished documents preserved in different Milanese archives, aims at reconstructing the history of the Brera Botanical Garden in the period between 1982 and 2001.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.

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.

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 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.

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.
