Acanthagrion marinae sp. Nov. (zygoptera: Coenagrionidae): A new species of the apicale group

Acanthagrion marinae sp. nov. (Holotype male: BRASIL, Mato Grosso do Sul, Campo Grande, UFMS, 20°29’56.26’’S-54°36’48.43’’W, 547m, leg. M.E. Rodrigues, 03.ii.2015, collection code: VZYG437, MLP) is described and illustrated on the basis of 15 males. The new species belongs to the apicale species group by having horns on S10 and sclerotized hooks on tip of distal segment of the genital ligula. It can be easily distinguished from other species of the group by a combination of characters of the genital ligulae (presence of setae on segment two; absence of setae at flexure; distal lateral lobes of segment three absent). Notes on habitat and a modification of previous keys for the species of the apicale group are provided.Fil: Lozano, Federico. Universidad Nacional de Avellaneda.

Use of satellite images in the evaluation of farmlands

Remote sensing techniques in the evaluation of farmland in Mexico are discussed. Electronic analysis techniques and photointerpretation techniques are analyzed. Characteristics of the basic crops in Mexico as related to remote sensing are described

Selection of Ontologies for the Semantic Web

The development of the Semantic Web has encouraged the creation of ontologies in a great variety of domains. Web users currently looking for ontologies in order to incorporate them into their systems, just use their experience and intuition. This makes it difficult for them to justify their choices. Mainly, this is due to the lack of methods that help the user to measure that the most appropriate ontologies for the new system are. To solve this deficiency, this work proposes a method which allows the users to measure the suitability of the existent ontologies, regarding the requirements of their systems

Self-dual Chern-Simons solitons in noncommutative space

We construct exact soliton solutions to the Chern-Simons-Higgs system in noncommutative space, for non-relativistic and relativistic models. In both cases we find regular vortex-like solutions to the BPS equations which approach the ordinary selfdual non-topological and topological solitons when the noncommutative parameter $\theta$ goes to zero.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figure
