The present work analyses the inter-seasonal predictability of precipitation during the austral summer in a subregion of Southeastern South America that includes Rio Grande do Sul and Northern Uruguay (RGS-NU), and proposes a methodology to produce probabilistic precipitation forecasts for this region, based on the use of NOAA CFS v2. It is found that the correlation between ENSO and the precipitation over RGS-NU during December-January-February is statistically significant after the late 70's, but not before. Considering that this relationship changes in different multidecadal periods, it is useful to explore a forecast system based on numerical models. We studied the hindcasts from NOAA CFS v2 initialized during October of the years 1983 to 2009, and found that the hindcasts of meridional wind at 850 hPa averaged over certain region of South America have statistically significant skill, in terms of correlation, to predict the observed precipitation over RGS-NU. The proposed forecasts are based on this relationship. The CFS v2 hindcasts also show realistic anomalous circulation patterns associated with the anomalous precipitation in the region and the season considered. This suggests that the forecasts may be further improved by using regional models combined with the CFS v2 outputs.

First Descriptions

In this paper seven new species of Latonigena Simon, 1893 are described, including the first descriptions of males of this genus. Latonigena beni sp. nov. is described from Bolivia and Brazil and six species are described exclusively from Brazil: L. colombo sp. nov. from Paraná; L. lami sp. nov. from Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul; L. santana sp. nov., L. sapiranga sp. nov. and L. taim sp. nov. from Rio Grande do Sul; L. turvo sp. nov. from Tocantins, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul. Latonigena africana Tucker, 1923 is transferred to Trichothyse Tucker, 1923 with basis on the morphological characters.

New Material

The genus Panochthus represents the last lineage of "Panochthini" recorded in the Pleistocene. This genus has a wide latitudinal distribution in South America, and in Brazil it occurs in the southern and northeastern regions. In this paper we describe new material (isolated osteoderms and caudal tube fragments) assigned to Panochthus from the state of Rio Grande do Sul (southern Brazil) and discuss some taxonomic issues related to Panochthus tuberculatus and Panochthus greslebini based on this material . The occurrence of P. greslebini is the first for outside the Brazilian Intertropical Region. In addition, we describe new diagnostic features to differentiate the osteoderms of P. greslebini and P. tuberculatus. Unfortunately, it was not possible to identify some osteoderms at the species level. Interestingly, they showed four distinct morphotypes characterized by their external morphology, and thus were attributed to Panochthus sp. Lastly, we conclude that in addition to P.tuberculatus registered to southern Brazil, there is another species of the genus, assignable to P. cf. P. greslebini. Our analysis reinforce the reliability of caudal tube characters for the classification of species of Panochthus.
