Some 255 birds were recorded between 1982-2001 in and near a 2314-ha "Horto" of old eucalyptus plantations with native understory and a lake, near Rio Claro, in central São Paulo, Brazil. This is close to the 263 recorded in and around a ten-times smaller nearby 230-ha woodlot of semideciduous forest. Different species were 44, for a total of 307 in both areas. One hundred and fifty nonvagrant forest and border species were recorded in 1982-86, a number close to the 152 in the small native woodlot. With dry years and logging of plots in 1985-93, 21 of the 150 species were lost, 42 species decreased in numbers, 49 were stable, 19 increased (15 being border species), and 5 entered (one of dry forest and 4 of borders), so 129 species remained in 1996-2001 compared to 133 in the native woodlot. Open-area birds were 33, versus 50 in better-checked grassy swales in sugar cane near the natural woodlot, for a total of 53. Several species, like some border ones, did not enter the open but isolated and mowed interior lake area, or took years to do so. Water and marsh birds were 46 versus 40 in smaller creeks and ponds near the natural woodlot (total, 55) but many were migrants or infrequent visitors using distant areas, and perhaps should be counted as 0.1-0.9 "local species" rather than "1" species. Use of this more accurate method would reduce waterbird totals by 14 "species" in the Horto and by 11 around the native woodlot. I also recommend longer censusing at the edges in large woodlots or many edge species will be recorded only in small fragments of habitat. Several species increased and others decreased with occasional cat-tail and water-lily cleanups at the lake. A forested corridor between the Horto and natural woodlot is recommended, with old eucalyptus left to provide flowers for hummingbirds.

Some 263 birds were recorded near and in a 230-ha patch of semideciduous forest in cane fields of central São Paulo, Brazil. Subtracting 67 open-area species, 22 of marshes or creeks, 10 vagrants and 12 recorded later, 152 forest and border species were recorded in 1982-86, much like what was observed in a similar woodlot near Campinas. Both woodlots lost species gradually over the years. Some birds avoided hard cane-field edges, preferring soft bushy edges. Of open-area species, 22 seemed to have disappeared by 1997 due to earlier high El Niño rains or rare permanently open habitats in the sugar cane; 17 new species were mostly nocturnal ones not noted earlier, or occasional visitors. Forest and borders lost 31 species, gaining five of dry regions and one winter visitor. Several migrants from the south appeared only in wet years before recent greenhouse effects, some resident birds were hunted, and canopy hummingbirds were perhaps still present. Dry-forest travel-prone or "metapopulational" species moved their centers of distribution, partly concealing loss of moist-forest diversity.

A quali-quantitative survey was done in two fragments (75 and 100 ha) of semideciduous forest in rural São Paulo State. The aim was to characterize the bird community according to richness, abundance, and occurrence frequency in these areas. The qualitative survey showed 145 species in the Estação Ecológica de São Carlos - EESCar (Brotas) - and 173 in the Fazenda Santa Cecília - FSC (Patrocínio Paulista), while the quantitative survey showed the presence of 60 and 72 species in EESCar and FSC respectively. The isolation and the lower environmental quality of the EESCar fragment may be responsible for the lower number of species in this area compared to that of FSC. Abundance index value analysis (IPA) showed that both areas have a large number of species with low IPA and few species with intermediate or high IPA compared to the pattern observed in other surveys. At FSC, a larger number of occurrences of species in danger of extinction in São Paulo State was also observed. Apparently, the FSC fragment had better environmental quality for sheltering a larger number of species, including the endangered ones. The study of the community of birds is important in planning management and conservation of natural areas.

Abstract: The Porto Ferreira State Park (PFSP) is located in the State of São Paulo southeastern Brazil, in an intriguing transitional area between the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado - both hotspots of biodiversity - represented mainly by the cerradão (CER), and the seasonal semideciduous forest (SSF), with its alluvial variation vegetation type (riparian forest - RP). Ecotonal areas play an important role in providing ecological and phytogeographic knowledge regarding the flora and vegetation of this region. Despite various studies on the PFSP, knowledge of this region remains fragmented. In this study, we aim to conduct an updated checklist of the PFSP vascular flora, including a compilation of all the studies conducted in this protected area, plus field work carried out by the authors from 2014 to 2017. In addition, given its ecotonal characteristics, we completed a floristic similarity analysis between the PFSP and other floristic surveys that examined the same vegetation types present in this study, to gain a better understanding of their phytogeographic relationships. Overall, 684 species, belonging to 387 genera and 107 families, were recorded. The SSF presented the richest vegetation type (478 species), followed by the CER (418) and the RP (231). The most diverse families were Fabaceae (64 species), Myrtaceae (41), Orchidaceae (39), Rubiaceae (37), Asteraceae (35), Bignoniaceae (26) and Malvaceae (20). Moreover, eight threatened species, at regional and national levels, were found. To date, 412 species have been added to the floristic list produced for the PFSP. The life forms with the highest number of species were trees (286 species), herbs (176) plus shrubs and subshrubs (123). Our research findings indicate floristic patterns with higher levels of similarity among species in geographical proximity, including those in ecotonal areas encompassing different vegetation types. These results rank the PFSP among some of the most species-rich conservation units with seasonal climates, and therefore is of great importance for plant conservation in the southeast of Brazil.

Resumo: Os mais recentes estudos sobre a poesia visual brasileira da segunda metade do século XX têm reiteradamente ressaltado as influências barrocas nos textos de artistas como Haroldo de Campos, Augusto de Campos e Décio Pignatari. No entanto, o estudo das vanguardas poéticas dos anos 1950 aos anos 1970 ainda se limita excessivamente à produção literária do eixo Rio-São Paulo, com algumas exceções (como as dos estudos sobre Ferreira Gullar). Contudo, artistas de Mato Grosso, ainda que hoje pouco conhecidos pela academia fora do estado, tiveram participação ativa e intensa nas formulações teóricas e estéticas das imbricações entre o ler e o ver na poesia visual dessa época. Nesse contexto, o presente artigo destaca a obra do poeta mato-grossense Silva Freire, o qual releu os elementos neobarrocos e concretos da arte de sua época à luz de sua cultura local, evidenciando uma outra possibilidade de entender a poesia visual: sob a lente regional de Cuiabá. Para tanto, analisa-se aqui como o barroco se revela tema, figura retórica e até mesmo item lexical na poesia freireana, mas apartado do eixo Bahia-Minas Gerais do século XVII e transmutado para o Mato Grosso do século XX.Palavras-chave: Silva Freire; barroco; regionalismo; Cuiabá.Abstract: The most recent studies about Brazilian visual poetry from the second half of the twentieth century have highlighted baroque influences on poems by Haroldo de Campos, Augusto de Campos and DécioPignatari. However, research studies on poetic avant-gardes from the 1950 to the 1970 are still excessively limited to the poetry from Rio-São Paulo, with few exceptions (such as the studies on Ferreira Gullar). Nevertheless, artists from Mato Grosso, still disregarded by scholars from other states, actively and intensively contributed to the theoretical and aesthetical discussions on the reading and seeing of visual poetry at that time. This paper highlights the work of a poet from Mato Grosso, Silva Freire, who reinterpreted the neo-baroque and concrete elements of the poetry from his time under the lenses of his local culture. Thereby, he evidenced another way to understand visual poetry: from the regional perspective of Cuiabá. To do so, we herein analyze how baroque can be considered as a theme, a rhetorical figure and a lexical item in Freire’s poetry; and how that poetry detaches baroque from the seventeenth century in Bahia and Minas Gerais and brings it to the twentieth century in Mato Grosso.Keywords: Silva Freire; baroque; regionalism; Cuiabá.

Abstract The Bare-faced Curassow Crax fasciolata (Cracidae:Cracinae) is a vulnerable species that was classified as critically endangered by the São Paulo State -Brazil, in 2008. Specialists recommended "searches for areas where there may be a few remaining populations and protection of the last remaining semideciduous forest in the State". Protected areas were investigated in the Cerrado and semideciduous forest in São Paulo State by camera trapping to evaluate the presence of the Bare-faced Curassow. Eight protected areas in Cerrado biome were investigated, but the Bare-faced Curassows was recorded only at Furnas do Bom Jesus State Park (2,069 ha), São Paulo State despite the large sampling effort in larger protected areas such as the Santa Bárbara Ecological Station (2,712 ha) and Jataí Ecological Station (9,074 ha); the largest protected area of Cerrado biome in São Paulo State. This record of C. fasciolata is important for the Conservation Action Plan for the Cracid family and shows the importance of monitoring biodiversity and conserving even relatively small remnants of native vegetation for the conservation of this species.

The Way

This article aims to analyse the polysemy as an interpreting of conflicts between social voices, and it is based on the dialogical theory of discourse and on the enunciation theory of Benveniste. To do so, it is verified the way polysemy marks the confrontation between social voices: a) as an oppressive designation given by dominant groups to the oppressed people and as a strategy of revaluation of the oppressive words by oppressed groups and b) as a critical designation of the dominated groups to their oppressors and as an attempt of the dominant group to revaluate/neutralize the critical dominations given to it by the oppressed groups. Then, it is observed a contemporary example of the mentioned phenomenon: the word revaluation of “balbúrdia”, in 2019, used by Brazilian university students, in response to a polemic statement of Abraham Weintraub, Minister of Education of the current management. It is found that the social contradictions do not enclose in one or other statement, they should be observed through the dialogue stablished between different social voices.ResumoEste artigo objetiva analisar a polissemia enquanto interpretante dos confrontos entre vozes sociais, tendo como base a teoria dialógica do discurso e a teoria enunciativa de Benveniste. Para isso, verifica-se de que modo a polissemia marca o confronto entre vozes sociais: a) como designação opressora dada pelos grupos dominantes aos oprimidos e como estratégia de revalorização de vocábulos opressores por grupos oprimidos; b) como designação crítica dos grupos dominados aos seus opressores e como tentativa do grupo dominante de revalorizar/neutralizar as denominações críticas dadas a ele pelos grupos oprimidos. Após, observa-se um exemplo contemporâneo do citado fenômeno: a revalorização vocabular da palavra “balbúrdia”, em 2019, por estudantes universitários brasileiros, em resposta a um enunciado polêmico de Abraham Weintraub, enquanto Ministro da Educação da atual gestão. Constata-se que as contradições sociais não se encerram em um ou outro enunciado, devendo ser observadas através do diálogo travado entre as diferentes vozes sociais.Palavras-chave: “Balbúrdia”, Contradições sociais, Polissemia, Revalorização vocabular.

Household structure has been recognized as an important element of residential location choice. The aim of this work is to understand how the spatial configuration resulting from these location choices could cause differentials in terms of urban life and opportunities. To do so, a weighted gravitational accessibility index is applied to the São Paulo Metropolitan Area to investigate the differences among household structures to distinct types of accessibility (jobs, education and leisure). The results point to a high disparity between accessibility levels, especially in the accessibility to jobs. The household size plays an important role, with lower accessibility levels associated with more members in the household. The study shows that the household composition also has impacts on accessibility and that higher deprivation levels affect single-parent households.

The Estação Ecológica de Jataí comprises one of the largest mesophytic semideciduous forest and savanna remnants in the state of São Paulo. However, anuran surveys on this site have not been registered in the literature. As result of an exploratory survey conducted in water bodies in the mesophytic semideciduous forest and surroundings in December 2006, we recorded 21 anuran species belonging to five families and 10 genera. These findings contribute to the knowledge of the anuran fauna associated to the mesophytic semideciduous forest of São Paulo state, Brazil.

Despite the great extension of the Cerrado and its importance for biodiversity conservation, there are still sampling gaps in this region that has shown conspicuous changes over the years due to the conversion of natural areas into pastures and plantations. Around 88.5% of the Cerrado areas in the State of the São Paulo were cleared in the last four decades and less than 0.81% of the original Cerrado vegetation remains as pristine habitats, although these areas once covered 14% of the state. We present the list of snakes that occur in the Estação Ecológica de Santa Bárbara, a remnant of Cerrado in the State of São Paulo, in addition to information on the abundance and distribution of species in the various habitats found at this location. The survey was conducted between October 2008 and March 2009 during six monthly field trips of five days each, totaling 30 sampling days. Surveys were conducted using incidental encounters (IE) and pitfall traps (PT). We recorded a total of 21 species belonging to 15 genera and six families. All species and individuals captured (18 species; 49 individuals) were found in open Cerrado formations. No individual was observed in the sampled forest habitats (cerradão and dry forest). Forested habitats occupy a relatively small portion of this protected area (12.6%). However, the higher species richness in open habitats may not be a result of limited local coverage of forests. The higher richness in interfluvial open habitats has also been recorded in other Cerrado areas. This survey is an important contribution towards enhancing our knowledge about the snake assemblage in the highly threatened Cerrado of São Paulo State. Hence, these last protected remnants in the state that still house significant areas of open Cerrado formations, such as the Estação Ecológica de Santa Bárbara, although reduced, are extremely important for the conservation of reptiles in the State of São Paulo, in Southeastern Brazil, and in the Cerrado region.
