The purpose of this study is to present the distribution and characteristics of xerothermic flora located within Lublin (51<sup>o</sup>08’-51<sup>o</sup>18’N and 22<sup>o</sup>27’-22<sup>o</sup>41E). The data on this flora have been derived from the literature and herbarium collections as well as they were collected during field research conducted in 2002-2009. Family affiliation, life forms, geographical-historical groups, the degree of synanthropization of species and habitat, categories of threat are discussed in this paper. 107 xerothermic species belonging to 26 families and 70 genera were reported from the area of Lublin. The number constitutes 10% of the city’s flora. The most numerous are plants from the classes <i>Festuco-Brometea</i> (70 species), <i>Trifolio-Geranietea</i> sanguinei (21) and <i>Rhamno-Prunetea</i> (16). All extinct species (8) belong to the class <i>Festuco-Brometea</i>. The analysis of the spectrum of life forms indicates that the biggest share in the flora of Lublin was observed in the group of hemicryptophytes (57 species) and phanerophytes (14). The native species (103) dominate over the group of alien ones (4 species). The group of xerothermic plants comprises 21 legally protected and endangered species. Xerothermic plants exhibit a mosaic distribution in the area of Lublin. The frequency (measured as the presence of a species in a study unit, one ATPOL square) ranged from 1 to 44 species. Two main features of the analyzed area seemed to be responsible for species distribution: the value of the Real Hemeroby Index (RIH) and the history of the flora.

The article presents data on the diversity and substrate groups of bryoflora of the Znesinnya Regional Landscape Park (Znesinnya RLP), located in the city of Lviv (Western Ukraine). Based on field research carried out in the period 2015-2018 and analysis of herbarium collections, an inventory was made of the bryoflora of the Znesinnya RLP. A total of 113 species of bryoflora belonging to 66 genera, 35 families and 2 divisions are presented from the investigated area. Of these, 105 species are members of the division Bryophyta and 8 belong to Marchantiophyta. Six regionally rare species of bryophytes have been recorded, namely Pellia endiviifolia, P. epiphylla, Encalypta streptocarpa, Fissidens exilis, Cirriphyllum crassinervium and Sciurohypnum starkei. With regard to substrate preferences, epigeous species of bryophytes predominated and accounted for 89.0% of the total number of species. The largest proportion of bryophytes occurred on bare soil (46.0%), while 36.3% and 25.7% species were found on soil among herbaceous vegetation and on soil with gravel, respectively. Stony substrates were colonized by 42.5% of bryophyte species, with 19.5% of species occurring on artificial stony substrates. In addition, 24.8% of the species belonged to epixils inhabiting old stumps and logs of varying degrees of decay, and the same proportion was represented by epiphytic species of bryophytes. The smallest proportion (10.7%) of bryophytes was confined to water bodies and swampy ecotopes.

The Dr. Salatiel Square, located at Marechal Bittencourt Street in the historical center of the São João del-Rei city, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, appeared in the twentieth century during the period of hygienism. It was inserted in a place that over the years suffered several modifications on its morphology. The work aims to study the landscape aspects and socio-cultural evolution of this square. This work execution consisted of the two steps: field research for the identification of the historical square significance, and a research that was carried out in the historical collections of the city. During the field research, it was collected the current state of Dr. Salatiel Square as well as its uses and potentials, and its botanical composition. Analyzing the square and its surroundings, and also the information collected in São João del-Rei, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, it was possible to verify that the site, which nowadays the Dr. Salatiel Square is placed, was occupied before by European influenced houses that were overthrown later in the period of hygienism. Among all the nomenclatures already attributed to the street that shelter the square, the best known by population is Cachaça’s Street due to the commerce of the time which favored the nightlife and bohemia. The square in study is part of the historical center of the city, and all its surroundings are overturned. However, the square has faced significant constructive and botanical modifications on its structure constituting a space characterized by the abandonment due to factors such as accumulation of garbage and great flow of vehicles. From the carried out study, it was verified that the number of information about the place is scarce, so that the continuation of its historical rescue is of great importance for means of preserving the history of the city and the population.

Coal exploitation has produced a huge amount of mining waste whose considerable part is being piled on the waste dumps. The analysis was carried out in the area of Ruda Slaska city. The waste dumps are located within the city limits. The spontaneous processes of succession can thus help to manage such urban landscapes in compliance with the principles of sustainable development. The majority of such territories are managed and restored. However, some areas avoid reclamation processes and instead undergo the process of spontaneous vegetation or even landscape succession. The aim of the research is first and foremost to characterize the spontaneous succession of vegetation in terms of habitat requirements to which we include light, temperature, humidity, trophic conditions, reaction (pH), granulometric composition and plant life forms. In the second place the aim was to determine the direction of the spontaneous succession of vegetation as well as to demonstrate the usefulness of such types of research while planning the reclamation of the post-mining areas that have been deformed to suit the urban landscape. The result of the analysis showed the occurrence of 108 vascular plants in I and 60 in II waste dump. It was mostly photophilous species that prevailed on both waste dumps. They were mostly native as well as non-native species. Some species like Calamagrosits epigejos, Robinia pseudoacacia, Betula pendula have high biological productivity despite unfavorable conditions. The overgrown dumps shaped the image of the city landscape in a specific way. However, the investigation showed that the number of species on the waste dumps increases with time. The results of the research into the conditions that reign on the dumping grounds provide the basis for projects of reclaiming the post-mining sites, in particular the waste dumps, from raw material extraction, as well as demonstrate the usefulness of the spontaneous succession of plants.

The article analyzes the secondary area in the Emirate of Fujairah, as well as the peculiarities of seed dispersing, seed germination and early seedling development of Mesquite, or Prosopis juliflora - the alien species of Mimosaceae, which appeared on the territory of the Emirates in the twentieth century, and one of the first collected herbarium specimen is dated 1983. In the secondary area most often, the Mesquite is found in anthropogenic habitats: in gardens, as well as near roads, on waste grounds, less frequent on the streets of settlements, garden fences etc. In regions represented by herbarium collections, P. juliflora is successfully naturalized and creates stable self-sustaining populations. It has a complex of specific helio-mesomorphic features that allow it to take root successfully in relatively open moderately wet, and even dry or saline habitats and compete with native species of acacia ( Acacia tortilis, A. ehrenbergii ) and local prosopis ( P. cineraria ). Characteristics such as good germination, significant morphological, dimensional and temporal variability of premature individuals of P. juliflora , identified in this work, undoubtedly contribute to the successful naturalization of the species in the secondary range and its wide distribution throughout the Emirate. Due to the high aggressiveness of Mesquite, it is necessary to develop a method of dealing with this plant in the UAE, which will stop its uncontrolled settlement in the region. We have compiled a map of Mesquite distribution in Fujairah and surrounding areas, which clearly shows the scale of the disaster. A method for assessing invasion on a five-level scale based on reproductive success has been developed and applied. The structure of ecotopes at an early and middle stage of penetration of P. juliflora was analyzed using large wastelands (2 and 1.2 ha) in the village Mirbah and the city of Fujairah on the coast of the Gulf of Oman.

Answering Questions

Refugia: The Survival of Urban Transspecies Communities encourages to us recognize the unexpected relations among species and to speculate about the possibility of their existence and development. It shows the need for care and support for multi-species urban communities by answering questions about the following: Which humans and non-humans may find refuge in the city? Under what conditions and to what extent? Are cities also becoming spaces of refuge for rare, endangered or endangered species and disappearing ecosystems? Can unwanted and underestimated life forms find refuge in the city, and how much compassion and hospitality do we have for them? Is it possible to be safe in the city without a place–home–shelter of one’s own? The book is the result of transdisciplinary research, including knowledge-producing artistic projects, whose research and communication methodology enable us to go beyond specialist circles. The book consists of two parts, the first of which, Refugia: The Transdisciplinary Practice of Curiosity, includes scientific texts focusing on various cases of interspecies relationships created in cities by human and non-human animals, plants, fungi, soil, architecture, etc. The second part of the book includes artistic statements in the form of visual documentation of projects created for the exhibition Refugia: Keep (Out of) These Places. The art presented here makes it possible to construct perspectives different from those generated in the field of humanities or sciences, but remaining in close contact with these fields.

In the article the author talks about a local episode in the history of the formation of one of the little-studied diasporas of the cities of Central Russia – the Assyrians. The author's goal is to consider the emergence of communities of the considered ethnic group using the example of small Assyrian diasporas known from the Riga Railway. Since the Assyrians settled in the cities of European Russia for the most part after exodus from their places of traditional residence, fleeing the genocide unleashed by the Turkish authorities during the First World War, their new places of residence anyway were tied to the lines of the railways that existed at that time. For this study, the Riga (formerly Vindava) direction was chosen, about the Assyrians of which the author has so far collected the maximum possible information. Based on the materials of the largest researcher of the Assyrian diaspora of the former USSR – archimandrite Stephen (Sado), as well as on the materials of his own field research, the author provides the reader with information on the diasporas that arose at the early stage of the formation of the Russian Assyrian community – in the 1920s-1930s. The article deals with the Assyrians of the former city of Tushino, which in 1960 became part of Moscow, Istra, Volokolamsk, Rzhev, Velikiye Luki, Toropets, located on the territory of the Moscow, Tver and Pskov regions of the Russian Federation. First of all, the participation of families from different tribal and rural communities in the formation of diasporas is considered, as a result, the author identifies at least three parts on this railway direction, inhabited by people from certain tribes. The first part, which includes the former city of Tushino and, possibly, Istra and Volokolamsk, is represented by the diasporas of the Jylu tribe. In the second, on the indicated railway direction, we include only the city of Rzhev. There, first of all, we see two groups of families of people from the village. Kochanis (Kuchisnaya tribe) and the Diz region (Diznaya). The latter point allows us to consider the city as part of the settlement area of the diasporas of this group, which includes some cities of the Tver and Smolensk regions, located along the adjacent Torzhok – Vyazma branch. The third part is the cities of Velikiye Luki and Toropets, in which we know mainly the Assyrians of the Shapatna group, who in the 1920–1930s created a large array of settlement of their diasporas, covering part of the north-west of Russia, Belarus, part of the north of Ukraine.

A contabilidade é tão antiga quanto à própria história da civilização. Ela está ligada às primeiras manifestações humanas, bem como à necessidade social de proteção à posse e à perpetuação e interpretação dos fatos ocorridos. Há escritos históricos que os primeiros registros contábeis constituíam-se em fichas de barro, guardadas em receptáculos de barro, que eram utilizadas na contagem do patrimônio, registrando, dessa forma, o evento ocorrido e auxiliando o controle do patrimônio por parte do proprietário. Diante das transformações ocorridas na sociedade ao longo das décadas e as inúmeras mudanças econômicas, houve a necessidade de um controle mais efetivo e rigoroso no patrimônio das entidades, sejam elas pessoas físicas ou jurídicas. Do outro lado, os governos criaram mecanismos para aprimorar a fiscalização e, assim, aumentar sua arrecadação. Com o surgimento da informática, o avanço da tecnologia da informação e a revolução digital trouxeram também um novo formato para a administração fazendária tanto no controle e na qualidade quanto na veracidade das informações prestadas pelos contribuintes. Percebe-se que a internet é um importante instrumento de apoio aos administradores, aos gestores e aos profissionais da contabilidade, pois utiliza toda essa tecnologia para aprimorar sua gestão no âmbito da tomada de decisões como para atender as obrigações acessórias impostas pele legislação fiscal e tributária. Com o avanço da tecnologia e o grande volume de operações realizadas pelas grandes empresas, tanto as empresas quanto os órgãos fiscalizadores tiveram que acompanhar esse avanço. O presente artigo tem como objetivo ressaltar a importância da tecnologia da informação, ressaltando a finalidade dos SPEDs. A metodologia adotada foi pesquisa de campo e entrevista com um contador, estabelecido na cidade de Barra Mansa-RJ, atuando na área contábil aproximadamente trinta anos. Accounting is as old as the history of civilization itself. It is linked to the first human manifestations, as well as to the social need to protect the possession and perpetuation and interpretation of events. There are historical writings that the first accounting records consisted of clay tiles, stored in clay receptacles, which were used in the counting of the patrimony, recording, in this way, the event occurred and helping the control of the patrimony on the part of the owner. Faced with the changes that have taken place in society over the decades and the numerous economic changes, there has been a need for a more effective and rigorous control over the assets of entities, whether individuals or corporations. On the other hand, governments have created mechanisms to improve oversight and thus increase their collection. With the advent of information technology, the advancement of information technology and the digital revolution also brought a new format for the management of the economy, both in terms of control and quality, as well as the truthfulness of information provided by taxpayers. It is noticed that the internet is an important instrument of support to administrators, managers and accounting professionals, because it uses all this technology to improve its management in the scope of decision making as to meet the ancillary obligations imposed by the tax and tax laws . With the advancement of technology and the large volume of operations carried out by large companies, both companies and inspection bodies had to follow up this advance. This article aims to highlight the importance of information technology, highlighting the purpose of SPEDs. The methodology adopted was field research and interview with an accountant, established in the city of Barra Mansa-RJ, working in the accounting area for approximately thirty years.
