Hollow Tree

Phyllostomus hastatus bat is species broadly distributed over the Neotropical region, which uses as diurnal roosts caves, hollow trees, palm leaves and human buildings. Thirteen diurnal roosts of P. hastatus were analysed from 1990 to 2009 in several localities of Rio de Janeiro State, regarding environment (rural, urban or protected area), type of roost (hollow tree, basement or roof), sex ratio and cohabitation. A nocturnal roost was also analysed. Sex ratio of P. hastatus varied considerably among roosts what may be explained by the fact this species can roost alone, in couples, in harems or in groups of bachelor males. Phyllostomus hastatus was observed in cohabitation with three other species: Molossus rufus, Molossus molossus and Myotis nigricans. Due to the frequency of cohabitation observed between P. hastatus and species of the genus Molossus, one or more advantages for the members of this association may be expected. The simultaneous usage of a feeding roost by a group of bachelor males is unknown information in the literature, and may suggest that this kind of group may interact with each other even when away from their diurnal roosts.

Eugenia subamplexicaulis belongs to Eugenia sect. Pilothecium and was described based on a collection made in São Paulo state by C.F.P. von Martius in 1817. After that, no other collection of this species was made until May 2018, over 200 years later, when this species was rediscovered in the rocky formation Monumento Natural da Pedra de Itaocaia, a protected area located in Rio de Janeiro state. This study provides an enhanced morphological description of the species, notes on its morphological affinities, geographic distribution and conservation status. The species can be recognized by its subsessile leaves, dichasial inflorescences and oblate fruits with up to three seeds. The fruits are described for the first time, since the original description was based only on a single flowering specimen. Additionally, the first photographic documentation of the live plant in its habitat is presented.

Objetivo: identificar as características clínicas e sociodemográficas das pacientes portadoras de cardiomiopatia periparto em unidade cardiointensiva de um hospital universitário no Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Método: estudo quantitativo, transversal, de análise documental em cinco prontuários, entre janeiro de 2014 a dezembro de 2016, obedecendo aos critérios preestabelecidos de inclusão e exclusão e iniciado após aprovação do Comitê de Ética e Pesquisa. Os dados foram coletados mediante um formulário próprio, tabulados em planilhas eletrônicas e analisados através de estatística descritiva simples. Resultados: houve predominância de idade entre 26-35 anos – 4 (80%), multíparas, etnia parda, internação para pós-operatório de parto cesárea – 4 (80%), internação inferior a 2 semanas 4 (80%). Dentre os problemas de enfermagem encontrados, estão o débito cardíaco diminuído e padrão respiratório ineficaz. Conclusão: divulgar as características sociodemográficas e clínicas dessa clientela pode ajudar a delimitar alguns problemas de enfermagem representativos nessa população.ABSTRACTObjective: to identify the clinical and sociodemographic characteristics of patients with peripartum cardiomyopathy in a cardiac intensive care unit of a university hospital in Rio de Janeiro State. Method: this quantitative, cross-sectional, documentary analysis studied five medical records, between January 2014 and December 2016, according to pre-established inclusion and exclusion criteria, after approval by the research ethics committee. Data were collected using a specific form, tabulated in electronic spreadsheets, and analyzed by simple descriptive statistics. Results: subjects were aged predominantly 26-35 years (4; 80%), multiparous, skin color brown, admitted for caesarean section postoperative care (4; 80%), and for less than 2 weeks (4; 80%). The nursing problems encountered included decreased cardiac output and ineffective respiratory pattern. Conclusion: disclosure of this clientele’s sociodemographic and clinical characteristics can help to delimit some representative nursing problems in this population.RESUMENObjetivo: identificar las características clínicas y sociodemográficas de las pacientes portadoras cardiomiopatía periparto en una unidad de cuidados intensivos coronarios de un hospital universitario en el Estado de Río de Janeiro.

We studied and compared parameters of the snake community of the Serra do Mendanha, Rio de Janeiro State, southeastern Brazil (22º 48'-22º 51' S and 43º 31'-43º 28' W), such as: abundance distribution, richness, species diversity and biomass, between forested areas, areas under regeneration and agriculture areas (banana plantations); to obtain information about the natural history and facilitate the development of future research. For capturing the snakes we used: pitfall traps, drift-fences and visual search (diurnal and nocturnal) along four transects for each habitat. The captured snakes were measured with a tape and caliper, weighed with dynamometers and sexed with the use of a catheter. The animals marked (with ventral scales cut) were released for posterior recapture. One individual per species was fixed and deposited at the Museu Nacional, Rio de Janeiro. We undertook an effort of 840 man/hour, and captured a total of 207 snakes belonging to 25 species (Colubridae 80.2%, Elapidae 12.6%, Viperidae 6.3% and Boidae 0.9%). The most abundant were: Liophis miliaris (n = 33), Micrurus corallinus and Chironius fuscus (both with n = 26); the least abundant: Elapomorphus quinquelineatus, Siphlophis compressus and Tropidodryas serra (all with n = 1). The species that contributed the greatest biomass were Spilotes pullatus (7,925 g), Chironius laevicollis (4,694 g), Liophis miliaris (3,675 g) and Pseustes sulphureus (3,050 g); those that contributed the lowest biomass were: Siphlophis compressus, Tropidodryas serra (both with 4 g) and Elapomorphus quinquelineatus (3 g). We found significant differences between the sampled habitats at the Serra do Mendanha (undisturbed forest, secondary forest and banana plantations). The results showed that a great reduction in the abundance, richness, diversity and biomass of the snakes occurs when the native forest is replaced by banana plantations.
