    O forame supratroclear é uma variação anatômica do osso úmero que comunica a fossa do olecrano com a fossa coronoide. Considerando o escasso número de dados desta variação na população brasileira, haja vista que seus aspectos morfológicos e morfométricos podem variar dependendo do grupo étnico, o presente estudo visou investigar a morfologia e frequência do forame supratroclear em ossos humanos brasileiros e sua associação com a antimeria, bem como descrever suas repercussões clínico-cirúrgicas. Trata-se de um estudo do tipo transversal, observacional e prospectivo, com amostragem do tipo não probabilístico por conveniência, o qual analisou 51 úmeros humanos de um acervo pertencente a uma instituição de ensino superior. Foi observado que 21,9% dos úmeros apresentaram o forame supratroclear, sendo a forma oval a mais predominante. Apesar de ter sido mais frequente no lado esquerdo, não foi observada associação estatística significante entre a presença do forame supratroclear e a antimeria

    Epiphytes are hyper-diverse and one of the frequently undervalued life forms in plant surveys and biodiversity inventories. Epiphytes of the Atlantic Forest, one of the most endangered ecosystems in the world, have high endemism and radiated recently in the Pliocene. We aimed to (1) compile an extensive Atlantic Forest data set on vascular, non-vascular plants (including hemiepiphytes), and lichen epiphyte species occurrence and abundance; (2) describe the epiphyte distribution in the Atlantic Forest, in order to indicate future sampling efforts. Our work presents the first epiphyte data set with information on abundance and occurrence of epiphyte phorophyte species. All data compiled here come from three main sources provided by the authors: published sources (comprising peer-reviewed articles, books, and theses), unpublished data, and herbarium data. We compiled a data set composed of 2,095 species, from 89,270 holo/hemiepiphyte records, in the Atlantic Forest of Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay, recorded from 1824 to early 2018. Most of the records were from qualitative data (occurrence only, 88%), well distributed throughout the Atlantic Forest. For quantitative records, the most common sampling method was individual trees (71%), followed by plot sampling (19%), and transect sampling (10%). Angiosperms (81%) were the most frequently registered group, and Bromeliaceae and Orchidaceae were the families with the greatest number of records (27,272 and 21,945, respectively). Ferns and Lycophytes presented fewer records than Angiosperms, and Polypodiaceae were the most recorded family, and more concentrated in the Southern and Southeastern regions. Data on non-vascular plants and lichens were scarce, with a few disjunct records concentrated in the Northeastern region of the Atlantic Forest. For all non-vascular plant records, Lejeuneaceae, a family of liverworts, was the most recorded family. We hope that our effort to organize scattered epiphyte data help advance the knowledge of epiphyte ecology, as well as our understanding of macroecological and biogeographical patterns in the Atlantic Forest.

    Tem sido uma constante no campo patrimonial a exortação de que as políticas do patrimônio precisam se aproximar dos anseios preservacionistas da população. Este artigo procura discutir essa máxima, analisando as razões para a demanda pró-preservação de não especialistas do Palácio Monroe, obra de arquitetura erigida pelo governo brasileiro em 1904, nos EUA, remontada no Brasil, em 1906, e demolida em 1976. Como forma de entender a percepção da sociedade sobre o patrimônio, procura-se mostrar como o processo de demolição do Monroe mobilizou a sociedade carioca. O objetivo é compreender a produção de memória e da história do Rio por pessoas que não pertencem às agências oficiais do patrimônio e que podem, como resultado, permitir que o circuito social da arquitetura seja incorporado às discussões do campo do patrimônio.Many scholars have pointed that the preservation policies should contemplate the society desires. This article discusses this maximum analyzing the reasons that produced demands from non-specialists about the preservation of the Monroe Palace. This building, that originally was built by the Brazilian government in 1904, in the US, was reassembled in Rio de Janeiro in 1906 and demolished in 1976. In order to understand the perception of society about this building, this paper seeks to show how the Monroe’s demolition mobilized Rio society. Taking this episode about the (non-) preservation of this architecture, we developed some reflections on the role of the journalism, blogs and websites, framed by one methodological preoccupation. The goal is to comprehend the production of the Rio’s memory and history by people that do not belong to official agencies of heritage in that city and, as result, to allow the discussion about the social circuit of the architecture within the heritage field

    NEOTROPICAL ALIEN MAMMALS: a data set of occurrence and abundance of alien mammals in the Neotropics

    No full text
    Biological invasion is one of the main threats to native biodiversity. For a species to become invasive, it must be voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into a nonnative habitat. Mammals were among first taxa to be introduced worldwide for game, meat, and labor, yet the number of species introduced in the Neotropics remains unknown. In this data set, we make available occurrence and abundance data on mammal species that (1) transposed a geographical barrier and (2) were voluntarily or involuntarily introduced by humans into the Neotropics. Our data set is composed of 73,738 historical and current georeferenced records on alien mammal species of which around 96% correspond to occurrence data on 77 species belonging to eight orders and 26 families. Data cover 26 continental countries in the Neotropics, ranging from Mexico and its frontier regions (southern Florida and coastal-central Florida in the southeast United States) to Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, and Uruguay, and the 13 countries of Caribbean islands. Our data set also includes neotropical species (e.g., Callithrix sp., Myocastor coypus, Nasua nasua) considered alien in particular areas of Neotropics. The most numerous species in terms of records are from Bos sp. (n = 37,782), Sus scrofa (n = 6,730), and Canis familiaris (n = 10,084); 17 species were represented by only one record (e.g., Syncerus caffer, Cervus timorensis, Cervus unicolor, Canis latrans). Primates have the highest number of species in the data set (n = 20 species), partly because of uncertainties regarding taxonomic identification of the genera Callithrix, which includes the species Callithrix aurita, Callithrix flaviceps, Callithrix geoffroyi, Callithrix jacchus, Callithrix kuhlii, Callithrix penicillata, and their hybrids. This unique data set will be a valuable source of information on invasion risk assessments, biodiversity redistribution and conservation-related research. There are no copyright restrictions.

    NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES: a data set on carnivore distribution in the Neotropics

    No full text
    Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential ecological integrity in landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value and their habitat requirements can guide management and conservation plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families in the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae. Herein, we include published and unpublished data on native terrestrial Neotropical carnivores (Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Procyonidae; and Ursidae). NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES is a publicly available data set that includes 99,605 data entries from 35,511 unique georeferenced coordinates. Detection/non-detection and quantitative data were obtained from 1818 to 2018 by researchers, governmental agencies, non-governmental organizations, and private consultants. Data were collected using several methods including camera trapping, museum collections, roadkill, line transect, and opportunistic records. Literature (peer-reviewed and grey literature) from Portuguese, Spanish and English were incorporated in this compilation. Most of the data set consists of detection data entries (n = 79,343; 79.7%) but also includes non-detection data (n = 20,262; 20.3%). Of those, 43.3% also include count data (n = 43,151). The information available in NEOTROPICAL CARNIVORES will contribute to macroecological, ecological, and conservation questions in multiple spatio-temporal perspectives. As carnivores play key roles in trophic interactions, a better understanding of their distribution and habitat requirements are essential to establish conservation management plans and safeguard the future ecological health of Neotropical ecosystems. Our data paper, combined with other large-scale data sets, has great potential to clarify species distribution and related ecological processes within the Neotropics. There are no copyright restrictions and no restriction for using data from this data paper, as long as the data paper is cited as the source of the information used.
