Abstract:

Se estudian las relaciones entre ciudadanía política, soberanía y educación pública en los primeros ensayos republicanos en el litoral rioplatense mostrando puntos de contacto con el ámbito peninsular español entre los años 1812 y 1822. Se propone un corte cronológico en el que estas entidades soberanas conciben la necesidad de establecer criterios de ciudadanía que excluye al peninsular en el Río del Plata y distingue entre español y ciudadano español en la península, coincidiendo aproximadamente con el período que va desde la sanción de la Constitución de Cádiz hasta alejamiento de la guerra de Independencia del conteniente. Se problematiza la relación entre el ámbito estatal-nacional y las forma gubernamentales previas a la construcción de los estados nacionales y se establecen criterios de discusión de la problemática en torno a la constitución de una autoridad legítima a principios de la década de 1820. Se establecen relaciones entre los proyectos de instauración de una educación pública y la definición de la ciudadanía política. Se observan principalmente los proyectos de constitución de legitimidad política a través de generar una ciudadanía ampliada promovida a futuro a partir de una educación pública ajena a los ámbitos tradicionales de formación de la elites. En el litoral rioplatense como en España peninsular se establecen plazos y condiciones para la instauración de esta educación pública que constituye la una de las bases de una ciudadanía ampliada aun inexistente en una época de cambios profundos y originales

In this article, the connections between political citizenship and public education arising during the first Republican years in the River Plate littoral provinces are studied in order to show their links to the European peninsular context between 1812 and 1825. A chronological reading is posited, in which these sovereign entities conceive of the need to establish criteria for citizenship excluding peninsulars in the River Plate and distinguishing between Spaniard and Spanish citizen in the peninsula; this reading coincides approximately with the period that lapses between the passing of the Cadiz Constitution and the end of the Independence War. The relation between the scope of nation state and of those governmental forms prior to the nation state construction is explored, and criteria are set for discussion of issues around the construction of legitimate authority during both the American independence movements and the reforms passed in peninsular Spain in the early 1820s. Links are drawn between their plans to institute public education and their definition of political citizenship. Their projects for the constitution of political legitimacy by creation of an extended citizenship, later to be promoted by means of public education policies removed from traditional circles of elite instruction, are specially observed. Both in the River Plate littoral provinces and in peninsular Spain, time intervals and conditions were stated for the institution of a public education system that constituted one of the bases for a then still inexistent citizenship at a time of profound original change

Abstract:

“Calliostoma” blakei Clench & Aguayo, 1938, described from Río Negro Province, Argentina, appears in the literature either under the genera Calliostoma, Photinula (Calliostomatidae) or as a member of the Umboniinae (Trochidae). The study of live-collected specimens allows to revise its generic placement.The species is characterized by a bipectinate ctenidium with short afferent membrane, isolated appendices in the left side of the neck, and the rachidian and the first lateral teeth reduced to their base. This set of characters, not present in any other trochoid, leads us to propose the new genus Carolesia for this species.

Abstract:

Based on published records and new data accumulated by the authors, we generated a list of the helminth parasites of marine mammals from off the coast of Argentina. We found 49 reports of helminths parasitizing cetaceans and pinnipeds from Argentina from 1952 to 2015. The list includes 54 taxa of helminths (8 acanthocephalans, 24 nematodes, 11 cestodes and 11 trematodes) associated with 18 species of cetaceans and 5 species of pinnipeds. Most of the records represent adults (5 canthocephalans, 16 nematodes, 6 cestodes and 11 trematodes), followed by larvae (10 nematodes and 3 metacestodes) and juveniles (4 acanthocephalans and 2 cestodes). The checklist contains 24 named species (5 acanthocephalans, 8 nem- atodes, 4 cestodes and 7 trematodes) and 30 undetermined helminth taxa (3 acanthocephalans, 16 nematodes, 7 cestodes and 4 trematodes). The present account contains a parasite/host lists and information on the habitat, developmental stage and distribution of the parasites listed, repositories of their type and voucher specimens and references. A host-parasite list is also presented. The data compiled on the helminth of marine mammals from Argentina in the present study revealed gaps in the knowledge of their taxonomic identification, composition, distribution, host specificity and life cycles. These gaps are also briefly discussed in order to provide an outline for future research.

Abstract:

A new apseudomorph tanaidacean, Deidamiapseudes poseidon n. gen., n. sp., is fully described and illustrated based on many specimens collected in the Mar del Plata Submarine Canyon, South West Atlantic, at 1144 m depth. The new genus Deidamiapseudes is closely related to the genus Hoplomachus Guţu, 2002, from which it can be distinguished by the lack of ommatidia, and by having antennule accessory flagellum of three articles, antenna with small scale, and pleopods with a few setae. In addition, Deidamiapseudes poseidon n. gen., n. sp. was found in deep-sea waters, whereas Hoplomachus is a shallow water genus. The uncertain family position of these two genera is discussed. The name Hoplomachus Guţu, 2002, preoccupied by Hoplomachus Fieber, 1858, is replaced with the name Hoplopolemius.

Abstract:

We describe a new genus of sigmodontine rodent to allocate a fossil species from Lagoa Santa cave deposits, Habrothrix angustidens Winge, and a living species from southeastern Atlantic Forest described at the start of the past century, Akodon serrensis Thos. Tentatively, both forms are considered as synonyms pending a detailed revision of the genus. The new genus belongs to the Akodon Division of the diverse tribe Akodontini where, based on molecular evidence, it is sister to Thaptomys, another forest-dwelling akodontine. The new genus is characterized by a unique combination of morphological traits including tail shorter than head-and-body; manual and pedal digits with short claws; skull robust with pointed rostrum, broad and somewhat flat interorbital region with frontal borders divergent posteriorly, and enlarged braincase without crests; large incisive foramina with expanded palatal process of premaxillary; broad mesopterygoid fossa with anterior margin rounded; alisphenoid strut present; carotid arterial circulation pattern primitive; molars noticeably large in relation to the skull and moderately hypsodont; main molar cusps arranged in opposite pairs; first upper molar without anteromedian flexus; length of third lower molar subequal to those of second lower molar; mandible without distinct capsular process; gall bladder present; stomach unilocular and hemiglandular; 2n = 46 (FN = 46). The new genus is an Atlantic Forest endemic, indicating that the diversity of Akodontini has been overlooked outside of the Andes.

Describimos un nuevo género de roedor sigmodontino para ubicar una especie fósil de los depósitos de Lagoa Santa, Habrothrix angustidens Winge y una especie viviente del sudeste de la Selva Atlántica descripta en los comienzos de la centuria pasada, Akodon serrensis Thos. Tentativamente, ambas formas son consideradas sinónimos a la espera de una revisión detallada de la diversidad del género. El nuevo género pertenece a la División Akodon de la diversa tribu Akodontini donde, sobre la base de evidencia molecular, resulta hermano de Thaptomys, otro akodontino especialista de selva. El nuevo género se caracteriza por una combinación única de rasgos morfológicos incluyendo una cola más corta que el largo cabeza-cuerpo, garras de los dedos de la mano y el pie cortas, cráneo robusto con rostro puntiagudo, región interorbitaria ancha y algo chata con los bordes frontales divergentes hacia atrás y caja craneana agrandada y sin crestas, forámenes incisivos expandidos con proceso palatal del premaxilar bien desarrollado, fosa mesopterigoidea ancha con el borde anterior redondeado, barra alisfenoidea presente, patrón de circulación carotídea primitivo, molares notablemente grandes en relación a las proporciones del cráneo y moderadamente hipsodontes, principales cúspides de los molares dispuestas en pares opuestos, primer molar superior carente de flexo anteromediano, largo del tercer molar inferior subigual al del segundo molar inferior, mandíbula sin proyección capsular evidente, vesícula biliar presente, estómago unilocular-hemiglandular, 2n = 46 (FN = 46). El nuevo género es endémico de la Selva Atlántica indicando una insospechada diversidad de los Akodontini en regiones extraandinas.

Abstract:

Ereymatermes Constantino is a nasute genus endemic to the Neotropical region, which included Ereymatermes rotundiceps Constantino from the forest of the lower Japurá River, AM, Brazil, and E. panamensis Roisin from the Panama Canal area. Herein Ereymatermes piquira, a new species from the northeastern Atlantic Forest, is described and illustrated based on the soldier and worker castes. The meaning of the two types of workers ("worker with broad gap" and "worker with narrow gap") and its relation to feeding habits are discussed.

Ereymatermes Constantino é um gênero endêmico da região Neotropical e continha as espécies Ereymatermes rotundiceps Constantino, descrita da floresta do baixo Rio Japurá, AM, e E. panamensis Roisin descrita da área do Canal de Panamá. Aqui, Ereymatermes piquira, uma nova espécie da Mata Atlântica do nordeste é descrita e ilustrada a partir de soldados e operários. O significado dos dois tipos de operários ("operário com intervalo amplo" e "operário com intervalo estreito") e sua relação com hábitos alimentares são discutidos.

Abstract:

Havelockia pegi sp. nov., is here described from shallow waters of the Argentine Sea. This new species is distinctive in the purple colouration of its tentacles, scarcity of body wall ossicles and the presence of rosette-shaped ossicles in both the introvert and the tentacles. It is not closely related to any of its congenors. This is the first record of a true sclerodactylid from Argentina. Thandarum hernandezi Martinez & Brogger, 2012, described in the family Sclerodactylidae, is now classified in the family Sclerothyonidae.

Abstract:

Adults and plerocercoids of a new species of Heteronybelinia (Trypanorhyncha, Tentaculariidae) were recovered from the skate Sympterygia bonapartii (Rajiformes: Rajidae), and 2 species of teleosts, Raneya brasiliensis (Ophidiformes: Ophidiidae) and Nemadactylus bergi (Perciformes: Cheilodactylidae), respectively. Heteronybelinia mattisi n. sp. differs from its congeners in its possession of a tentacular armature consisting of hooks with slight differences in size and shape on opposite surfaces of the tentacle (uncinate with rounded bases on the bothrial surface and uncinate with elongate bases on the antibothrial surface), without a characteristic basal armature, hooks increasing in size toward the tip of the tentacles, and pars bothrialis slightly overlapping with bulbs. The diagnosis of Heteronybelinia is emended regarding the distribution of testes to include species without postovarian testes (H. palliata and H. mattisi), and without testes anterior to cirrus sac (H. robusta and H. mattisi). Host data are summarized for all 15 valid species of Heteronybelinia. Host specificity of adults and plerocercoids of Heteronybelinia is variable among species, being the adults more host specific than the plerocercoids. With the exception of H. mattisi, the definitive hosts of all species of Heteronybelinia for which adults are known, include carcharhiniform sharks. Heteronybelinia mattisi seems to have oioxenous specificity for its definitive batoid host, S. bonapartii, and to be more specific for the intermediate hosts than most of its congeners.

Abstract:

The poorly known diversity of the genus Mysella in the southwestern Atlantic is improved with the description of a new species from San Julian Bay, Santa Cruz Province, Argentina. Mysella patagona new species is characterized by the relative large, strikingly subquadrate, slightly inequilateral and flat shell; a cleft hinge plate, with two widely diverging teeth in the right valve, and a cylindrical internal ligament located in a deep ligamental pit. From the anatomical point of view, M. patagona new species is characterized by the presence of inner and outer demibranchs, with very few interlamellar junctions. The marked subquadrate shell outline easily distinguishes M. patagona from any other Mysella species currently known from the Magellan Region.
