Many Neartic seabirds migrate to South America for the non-breeding season, using several key stopover and wintering sites along the Atlantic coast. The Stercorarius pomarinus is a widely distributed seabird found in every Ocean. It is a migratory bird from northern North America that flies southwards. However, there is little information about the occurrence of Stercorarius pomarinus along the São Paulo State coast. Former publications concerning the birds of Iguape- Cananéia- Ilha Comprida estuary have made no mention of the presence of this bird in the region. Thus it is important that forthcoming appearances be recorded. Throughout the bird-sample selection stage, undertaken since 1998 in the Cananéia estuary (25° 02' 44.71" S and 47° 55' 14.58" W) - 272 km from the city of São Paulo -, the bird was seen for the first time, resting in the Cananéia estuary, in January (2012). This note reports the occurrence of Stercorarius pomarinus in the Cananéia estuary, on the southern coast of São Paulo State, Brazil.

O Notorynchus cepedianus pertencente à família Hexanchidae (cação-sete-guelras), é uma espécie de rara ocorrência e está distribuído nas zonas tropicais a temperadas dos três oceanos, comumente encontrado em águas costeiras, baías e estuários, presente de zero a 570 m, normalmente a 80 m de profundidade, e pode atingir três metros de comprimento total. O cação-bruxa está listado como Criticamente em Perigo pelo ICMBio e IUCN, apesar do cadastro na categoria DD (Dados Deficientes), por falta de informações. Existem registros anteriores de N. cepedianus no litoral paulista, o primeiro registro ocorreu com uma fêmea capturada na região de Cananéia (1968) e o segundo uma fêmea com embriões no litoral paulista (1999). O exemplar deste estudo foi capturado em rede-de-emalhe da pesca artesanal, a 10 km da costa de Peruíbe, em junho de 2016 e doado ao projeto SOS tubarões do Instituto de Biologia Marinha e Meio Ambiente - IBIMM, localizado no bairro do Guaraú, cidade de Peruíbe, litoral Sul de SP, sendo esse o primeiro registro de ocorrência desta espécie na região. O peixe foi identificado como fêmea cação-sete-guelras, Notorynchus cepedianus, com 80 cm de comprimento total e 1,8 kg. O animal apresentou no conteúdo estomacal dois otólitos de peixe ósseo, sendo que na literatura consta que a espécie possui hábito alimentar variado. Os juvenis se alimentam principalmente de teleósteos e com o crescimento à medida que se desenvolvem, modificam seu hábito alimentar tornando-os mais complexos, se alimentando basicamente de teleósteos, crustáceos, cefalópodes, lobos-marinhos, pequenos cetáceos, raias, quimeras e tubarões.

Preservation of terrestrial fauna and flora has been the main reason for the settlement of most protected areas in the past 30 years, but although those areas may include water bodies, this does not necessarily mean that the biodiversity of freshwater environments are also protected. In the present study, the fauna inventory of eight streams (1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th orders) of three microbasins of Japi Mountain, a Biosphere Reserve of Atlantic Forest recognised by UNESCO since 1994, located in São Paulo state, southeast of Brazil, was conducted. The hypothesis of this study is that the conservation of this area is important for the maintenance of the aquatic biodiversity of this biome, and so, this world hotspot deserves priority conservation actions. From 2005 to 2007, benthic macroinvertebrates, fishes and, eventually, anuran amphibians were sampled in these streams. The results showed that Japi Mountain contributes to the conservation of 138 taxonomic units of the aquatic biota and covers a rich and representative biodiversity of freshwater fauna of the world (0.2%), Neotropical region (0.9%), Brazil (2.4%) and São Paulo state (17.9%). The studied streams in the Environmental Protection Area help protect endangered taxa like the fishes Neoplecostomus paranensis and Pareiorhina cf rudolphi, and shelter freshwater invertebrates and fishes whose distribution is restricted to the Brazilian territory. Japi Mountain is also an important haven of species that was missing there like the frog species Vitreorana eurygnatha. Thus, this species inventory emphasises the importance of conservation actions of the freshwater environments of this Biosphere Reserve of Atlantic Forest.

ABSTRACT The presence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in 123 oyster samples collected from an estuary on the southern coast of Sao Paulo state, Brazil, was investigated. Of the 123 samples, 99.2% were positive with densities ranging from <3 to 105 most probable number (MPN)/g. Densities correlated significantly with water temperature (r = 0.48; P < 0.001) but not with salinity (r = −0.09; P = 0.34). The effect of harvest site on counts was not significant (P > 0.05). These data provide information for the assessment of exposure of V. parahaemolyticus in oysters at harvest.
