Cercartetus Nanus

The Eastern Pygmy-possum Cercartetus nanu s is a small arboreal marsupial in the family Burramyidae that is threatened in parts of its range. Considered a generalist omnivore, its diet is known to include invertebrates, seeds, nectar and pollen. Tree sap has never before been recorded as a part of the diet of C. nanus . Here, we report on two observations of C. nanus feeding on eucalypt sap in south-eastern New South Wales.

The Santo Antão Hill located at Caturrita Village in the county of Santa Maria is an expressive tourist place in the region and also a rich forest in terms of botanic species from the lower montane Seasonal Deciduous Forests of the Serra Geral. Rio Grande do Sul. The objectives of the study were to get information about the floristic composition and seed dispersion syndromes of tree species. The floristic characterization of the Santo Antão hill forest was made with detailed taxonomic identification of the species found there. The seed dispersion was studied by field observations and bibliographical reviews using the categories and concepts proposed by Van Der Pl]l, Howe & Westley and Fisher & Chapman and used by NASCIMENTO & LONGHI (1996). There were 51 tree species classified in 47 genera and 28 families. indicating a relevant floristic diversity. Leguminosae. Myrtaceae. Sapindaceae and Moraceae were the most frequent families. Among the specles, Sorocea bomplandii (cincho). Cupania vernalis (camboatá- vermelho), Actinostemon concolor (Iaranjeira-do-mato), Schinus molle (aroeira-mansa), Nectandra megapotamica (canela-preta), were the most conspicuous. 69% of the studied species presented zoochoric dispersion, which is in agreement with severals authors that put this syndrome as one of the most important in the dissemination of tree species, as well as in the balance between the flora and fauna in the ecosystem.

Candidate Thesis

The article describes content of original and relevant but virtually forgotten thesis of V.V. Voronov on lighting of production site interiors by means of overhead natural (using three types of skylights) and artificial illumination, in order to elaborate scientific methodology for architectural design of more qualitative luminous environment on the basis of comprehensive approach and enhanced criteria framework of its evaluation using light engineering parameters. The thesis is unique in terms of the scope and quality of field and laboratory observations which are reflected not only in the text but also in the graphical attachments, namely photos, figures, schemes, drawings, charts, nomograms, and diagrams accompanied by specific measured or calculated parameters. The first part of the thesis contains theoretical basics and results of field observations conducted by different methods. This second part is the exposition of chapter 3 of the V.V. Voronov’s candidate thesis (1985). It describes the methodology for and the results of the experiments by means of planar and volumetric light simulation using the architectural lighting simulating assembly (chamber) which were conducted in MARKHI in 1970–1985.
