The first register of Biomphalaria straminea, vector species of schistosomiasis, in Santa Catarina State, South Brazil is described. The specimens were obtained from two ornamental aquaria of private residences. In both cases the ornamental plants and/or fishes were bought from the same supplier. The presence of this species was later confirmed in the farm where these plants and fishes are cultivated, in the city of Governador Celso Ramos, also in Santa Catarina State. The occurrence in natural environments was later detected in two different places of the Island of Santa Catarina.

The aim of this article is to show the main discussions of my work on Elopement and some kinds of kinship in a community in the city of Florianópolis, Santa Catarina state. The core of this work is the Elopement, a form of consensual union that allows marriage between relatives. Notions of kinship and family are also discussed, as well as the experience with MaqPar (acronym for machine kinship) and other computer programs which enabled new insights into this field. Among the perceptions about relationships, substance and coexistence issues are interwoven with the elopement and empirical networks.

Tungiasis is a common parasitic skin disease in Brazil, caused by the flea Tunga penetrans. We conducted a cross-sectional study to evaluate the occurrence of infestation with T. penetrans in primary schoolchildren in Criciúma, Santa Catarina State (South Brazil). In total, 917 children (6-10 years) of 68 schools were included in the study (11% of target population). Physical examination was followed by residential visits of those infested, to assess housing conditions and to interview the children's guardians. Of the 917, 15 (1.6%) children were infested with the parasite. The prevalence was twice as high in females (10 children - 2.2%) as compared to males (five children - 1.1%), but due to the low number of infested individuals, the difference was statistically not significant (p = 0.18). The mean number of lesions found was 1.4 per child. One child presented bacterial superinfection. Of the 15 children infested, 10 (66.7%) studied in schools built on pyritiferous soil. The families of 12 children (79.9%) had been living in the area in which the study was conducted for less than eight years and were considered underprivileged families with the head of the household having a low education status. We conclude that in Criciúma tungiasis occurs in primary school children, but prevalence and parasite load are low.

Peltophorum dubium (Sprengel) Taubert (Leguminosae) tem sido empregada com sucesso na arborização de praças, parques e rodovias, por apresentar flores amarelas formando vistosas panículas terminais e folhagem densa proporcionando ótima sombra. Entretanto, besouros serradores têm sido considerados uma potencial ameaça à arborização urbana no Brasil, causando danos a várias espécies botânicas ornamentais. O objetivo desse estudo foi registrar e caracterizar o ataque por besouros serradores em plantas de P. dubium em Trombudo Central, Santa Catarina, Brasil entre novembro de 2006 e janeiro de 2007. Os danos foram observados em 12 árvores utilizadas na arborização urbana do município. Durante o período de levantamento, 27 galhos roletados foram coletados, sendo o diâmetro médio dos mesmos de 6,35 cm. Este é o primeiro registro do besouro serrador Oncideres saga (Dalman) danificando plantas de P. dubium no Brasil. Report of Oncideres saga (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in Peltophorum dubium (Leguminosae) in Trombudo Central, Santa Catarina State, Brazil Abstract. Peltophorum dubium (Sprengel) Taubert (Leguminosae) has been used successfully for landscaping squares, parks and roads, due its yellow flowers forming terminal panicles and dense foliage providing excellent shade. However, twig girdlers have been considered a potential threat to the urban landscaping in Brazil, damaging many ornamental plant species. The aim of this study was to record the attack of twig girdlers in plants of P. dubium in Trombudo Central, Santa Catarina State, Brazil between November 2006 and January 2007. Damage was observed on 12 trees used in the urban landscaping of the city. During the survey period, 27 girdled branches were collected with an average diameter of 6.35 cm. This is the first record of the twig girdler Oncideres saga (Dalman) damaging plants of P. dubium in Brazil.
