Mites associated with birds have different relationships with their hosts, ranging from accidental association to true ecto- and endoparasitism. A total of 51 samples of the ruddy ground dove, Columbina talpacoti (Temminck, 1810) (Columbiformes), from São Paulo State, Brazil, were examined for mites. Five of the samples were nests.Mites belonging to the following taxa were found:Astigmata—Analgidae (three species), Falculiferidae (four species) and an unidentified Pyroglyphidae species; Mesostigmata—a single species of Macronyssidae; Prostigmata—a single species each of Cheyletidae, Ereynetidae, Harpirhynchidae and Syringophilidae. Diplaegidia columbigallinae Cerny´, 1975 and Byersalges talpacoti Cerny´, 1975 were the most frequent species. Known associations of each mite species to other columbiform birds are reported.

The genus Parapentaneura was established in 2006 and is composed of a single species, Parapentaneura bentogomensis, originally from Mato Grosso State. This species was collected in São Paulo State and is thus redescribed. The specimens from both localities were compared, adding new characters to the description of the species and emending the genus diagnosis. The new record increases considerably the geographical distribution of Parapentaneura.

The aim of this study was to report the mite species found in association with the eared dove, Zenaida auriculata (Des Murs, 1847), in São Paulo State, Brazil. A total of 34 bird specimens was examined, and mites were found on 31 of them. The following numbers of mite species were found: Astigmata: Falculiferidae - three species; Analgidae - two species; Dermoglyphidae, Epidermoptidae, Hypoderatidae and Pyroglyphidae - one species each. Prostigmata: Cheyletidae, Cheyletiellidae and Syringophilidae - one species each. Mesostigmata: Macronyssidae and Rhinonyssidae - one species each. We present the first report of Z. auriculata as host of Diplaegidia columbae Buchholz, 1869; Diplaegidia columbigallinae Cerny´, 1975; Byersalges talpacoti Cerny´, 1975; Pterophagus spilosikyus Gaud & Barré, 1992; Hypodectes propus (Nitzch in Giebel, 1861), Ornithocheyletia columbigallinae Fain & Bochkov, 2002; Ornithonyssus bursa (Berlese, 1888) and Tinaminyssus zenaidurae (Crossley, 1952).

Citrus latifolia Tanaka (Rutaceae) is a perennial and spinescent citrus tree. Knowledge of the mite fauna on this plant in São Paulo State is limited. The aim of this work was to survey the mite species from a C. latifolia orchard in Artur Nogueira municipality, central-eastern region of São Paulo state. Leaf samples were collected every two weeks from November 2011 to April 2012 for examination under a stereomicroscope. Mites found were mounted on microscopic slides in Hoyer's medium. In total, 147 mites representing 21 species of 11 families were found. Panonychus citri (McGregor, 1916) (Tetranychidae) was the dominant phytophagous species, accounting for about 20% of all mites. The predatory mite family Phytoseiidae was the most diverse, comprising nine species. Brevipalpus yothersi Baker, 1949 and P. citri are reported for the first time in C. latifolia in Brazil.

The urban population increase in the world, the economic expansion, and the rise in living standards associated with society’s habits and lifestyles accelerated the municipal solid waste (MSW) generation in undeveloped countries, such as in Brazil, in which the generation increased by 25% from 2012 to 2017. In the same period, the São Paulo state, the richest Brazilian state, increased its municipal solid waste generation by 51%. All this MSW needed to be collected and transported, and this process has a high economic and environmental cost. Therefore, this study aims to identify, using spatial analysis, the routes used by MSW trucks to estimate the distances traveled to dispose of the MSW on a regional scale considering all municipalities in the São Paulo state. The findings showed that the landfill numbers decrease, mainly individual ones, which receive MSW only from the city where it is located. Otherwise, the consortium landfills number is increasing, as well as the number of municipalities that share the same disposal site. Consequently, the distances to transport MSW from urban areas to final disposal sites increased by about 55% from 2012 to 2017, reaching 613 million kilometers during this period. This total distance is sufficient to make more than 12,806 laps on Earth and contribute to high fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emission.
