Abstract:
Today's distributions of faunal groups reflect historic events—geological and evolutionary, as well as dispersals, extinctions and chance events. The extent to which each of these contributed to the hydroptilid faunas of mainland Australia, Tasmania, New Guinea, New Zealand, New Caledonia, Fiji and Vanuatu is explored by comparison of the faunal composition, geology and geography of Australia and these SW Pacific islands. Corroborative evidence is sought from other groups, flora as well as fauna.

Abstract In the city, elementary-school children are less familiar with flora and fauna. An animation application was proposed to assist them in learning flora and fauna as well as to help teachers and parents in teaching elementary-school children to understand the flora and fauna. Data were collected from various sources and the software to build such applications was prepared, i.e. Adobe Flash. To develop the application, a life cycle method was used, including: concept, design, material collecting, assembly, testing, and distribution. Testing results showed that the proposed application can be used as an additional learning material and help students to understand a subject more easily. In addition, teaching flora and fauna for children in Indonesia needs a strategy through additional facility in the class. To attract attention, it is necessary to create a class situation that makes children motivated to learn as well as the use of aids or media when the teacher is teaching. Also, the rapid advances in technology, especially information technology, encourage people to develop learning media that can be used anytime and anywhere outside the classroom. The proposed application was called Interactive Animation of Introduction to Flora and Fauna in Indonesia, and was implemented in SD 03 Cakung, East Jakarta, Indonesia. Keywords: Interactive animation, Flora, Fauna, Instructional Media. Abstrak Sekarang ini, anak SD kurang begitu mengenal flora dan fauna. Animasi ini diharapakan mampu membantu mereka dalam mencari informasi flora dan fauna. Animasi ini dapat membantu masyarakat terutama orang tua dan guru SD bisa mengajarkan kepada anak-anak mereka untuk lebih mengenal flora dan fauna. Pengumpulan data dari informasi flora dan fauna dari berbagai sumber perlu dilakukan, serta menyiapkan software yang dibutuhkan untuk membangun aplikasi. Langkah berikutnya yaitu membangun aplikasi dengan adobe flash sebagai media pembuatannya. Dalam pembuatan animasi ini digunakan metode multimedia development life cycle, terdapat tahapan-tahapan meliputi concept, design, material collecting, assembly, testing, dan distribution dalam pembentukan kerangka pemikiran dalam multimedia development life cycle. Berdasarkan hasil uji aplikasi pada siswa Selain itu multimedia pembelajaran ini juga dapat membantu guru menyampaikan materi pengenalan hewan dengan lebih mudah. Mempelajari flora dan fauna di Indonesia perlu adanya cara atau strategi yang dapat memudahkan anak-anak dalam belajar. Untuk menarik perhatian, perlu diciptakan situasi kelas yang membuat anak-anak termotivasi untuk belajar. Salah satu caranya adalah dengan penggunaan alat bantu mengajar atau media ketika guru mengajar. Maka hasil dari penelitiran ini adalah sebuah program “Animasi Interaktif Pengenalan Flora Dan Fauna Di Indonesia Pada SD 03 Cakung Jakarta TImur Dengan Metode Multimedia Development Life Cycle”. Kata kunci: Animasi Interaktif, Flora, Fauna, Media Pembelajaran.

Kehadiran kelapa sawit di tengah masyarakat sebenarnya adalah untuk menambah penghasilan bagi masyarakat setempat. Akan tetapi, di sebalik itu semua ada sektor yang dirugikan, yaitu lingkungan dan ekologi yang berdampak pada punahnya flora dan fauna setempat. Punahnya flora dan fauna berdampak pula pada punahnya bahasa lokal yang ada di daerah tersebut. Di antara bahasa yang punah adalah penamaan untuk flora dan fauna yang punah itu. Melalui kajian ekolinguistik ditemukan penyebab punahnya bahasa lokal. Dari hasil penelitian, ditemukan ada 49 nama flora dan fauna yang tidak lagi diketahui oleh penuturnya, khususnya di kalangan generasi muda.

Abstract:
The primary objective of this thesis is to identify patterns of appearance among the flora and fauna of selected eighteenth-century New Spanish casta paintings. The objectives of the thesis are to determine what types of flora and fauna are present within selected casta paintings, whether the flora and fauna's provenance is Spanish or Mexican and whether there are any potential associations of particular flora and fauna with the races being depicted in the same composition. I focus my flora and fauna research on three sets of casta paintings produced between 1750 and 1800: Miguel Cabrera's 1763 series, José Joaquín Magón's 1770 casta paintings, and Andrés de Islas' 1774 sequence. Although the paintings fall into the same genre and within a period of a little over a decade, they nevertheless offer different visions of New Spain's natural bounty and include objects designed to satisfy Europe's interest in the exotic.

Abstract:
As lavouras de arroz são consideradas áreas úmidas artificiais e produzem uma grande quantidade de alimento ao redor do mundo. Estes agroecossistemas são comparados às áreas úmidas naturais, uma vez que são caracterizadas como ambientes altamente produtivos com potencial para conservação da biodiversidade, principalmente de aves e anfíbios. A coluna d’água presente durante a fase alagada do ciclo do cultivo do arroz contempla uma gama de organismos importantes como cicladores de nutrientes. Neste sentido, o estudo tem por objetivo descrever as mudanças que ocorrem na estrutura e composição da comunidade planctônica na coluna d’água de uma lavoura de arroz durante um ciclo de cultivo, considerando o tempo de irrigação da lavoura. Para tanto, foram coletadas amostras de água uma vez por semana nos quadros de uma lavoura de arroz comercial cultivada com plantio direto e localizada em Charqueadas, RS, durante a safra agrícola 2013/2014, totalizando 11 campanhas amostrais. Foram avaliadas as características químicas e físicas da água de irrigação, a composição do fitoplâncton e zooplâncton e as alterações na cobertura das plantas e da lâmina de água. As medições demonstraram que os teores dos parâmetros selecionados para a caracterização limnológica da lavoura se mostraram amplamente variáveis, com exceção do pH, temperatura e turbidez. Este último, no entanto, juntamente com os parâmetros nitrato, condutividade, nitrogênio amoniacal e matéria orgânica apresentaram altos teores e estiveram associados ao período inicial de irrigação (até 26 dias), provavelmente devido ao distúrbio do solo, aplicação de ureia e processos de decomposição de macrófitas aquáticas. A composição fitoplanctônica demonstrou a predominância de organismos pertencentes às classes Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Euglenophyceae, Zygnemaphyceae e Cyanobacteria. No entanto, Zygnemaphyceae foi a classe dominante em termos de biomassa, embora tenha ocorrido um aumento da biomassa das espécies pertencentes à classe Bacillariophyceae uma vez que esta classe contempla mais espécies metafíticas. Gêneros característicos de ambientes eutróficos, tais como Scenedesmus, Trachelomonas e Nitzschia foram dominantes em termos de abundância. A biomassa de cianobactérias foi mais representativa no período final de cultivo provavelmente devido aos altos teores de fósforo e menor disponibilidade de luz. Quanto ao zooplâncton, os rotíferos e as formas juvenis de copépodos foram dominantes durante todo o ciclo do cultivo. Espécies dos gêneros tais como Polyarthra, Keratella, Brachionus e Trichocerca comuns em ambientes eutróficos, foram dominantes em termos de densidade. Embora a condição nutricional da água tenha influenciado a estrutura das comunidades planctônicas, o desenvolvimento da planta de arroz ao longo do ciclo tornou o ambiente mais complexo, o que também pode ter ocasionado alterações na composição destas comunidades. O período pós-perfilhamento representou uma fase de transição nas dinâmicas das populações através da diminuição da incidência de luz e aumento de nichos. A influência positiva do nitrato e da luz sugere que o mecanismo ascendente foi mais importante para a estruturação da comunidade fitoplanctônica. A interação entre as comunidades planctônicas sugerem que o consumo por herbivoria não foi limitado pela produtividade primária.
The rice fields are considered artificial wetlands and produce a lot of food around the world. These agricultural ecosystems are compared with natural wetland, since they are characterized as highly productive environments with the potential for conservation of biodiversity, especially of birds, and amphibians. The water column during the flooded phase of the rice cultivation cycle includes a range of important organisms such as nutrient cyclers. In this sense, the study aims to describe the changes taking place in the structure and composition of the plankton community in the water column of a rice crop during a crop cycle, considering the time of crop irrigation. To this end, water samples were collected once a week in the plots of a commercial rice crop, located in Charqueadas RS, during the 2013/2014 harvest, totaling 11 sampling campaigns. The chemical and physical characteristics of the irrigation water, the composition of the phytoplankton and zooplankton, changes in the canopy of the plants and the water layer depth, were evaluated. Measurements have shown that the concentrations of the selected parameters for the limnological characterization of tillage displayed widely variability, except for pH, temperature and turbidity. The latter, however, together with nitrate, conductivity, ammonia nitrogen and organic matter parameters showed high concentrations and have been associated with the initial irrigation period (until 26 days), probably due to disturbance of the soil, urea application and processes of decomposition of aquatic weeds. The phytoplankton composition demonstrated the predominance of organisms belonging to classes Chlorophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Euglenophyceae, Zygnemaphyceae and Cyanobacteria. However, Zygnemaphyceae was the dominant class in terms of biomass, although there was an increase in the biomass of species of the class Bacillariophyceae, since this class include more metaphytic species. Genres characteristic of eutrophic environments such as Scenedesmus, Trachelomonas and Nitzschia were dominant in terms of abundance. The biomass of cyanobacteria was more representative in the late cultivation period is likely due to high concentrations of phosphorus and low light availability. Regarding zooplankton, the rotifers and juvenile forms of copepods were dominant throughout the growing cycle. Species of the genera such as Polyarthra, Keratella, Brachionus and Trichocerca, common in eutrophic environments, were dominant in terms of density. Although the nutritional status of water has influenced the structure of plankton communities, the development of the rice plant throughout the cycle became the environment more complex, which may also have caused changes in the composition of these communities. The tillering period represented a transitional phase on the population dynamics by decreasing the incidence of light and increase niches. The positive influence of nitrate and light suggests that the mechanism bottom up was more important to the structure of the phytoplankton community. The interaction between the planktonic communities suggest that consumption by herbivores was not limited by primary productivity.

Abstract:
Late Middle Eocene time marks one of the most dynamic periods of the Paleogene in the western interior of North America. Analysis of an extensive, new collection of plant, invertebrate, and vertebrae fossils from the Uinta Formation in the Uinta Basin, south of Myton, Utah, USA, provides evidence of environmental change. Paleobotanical specimens are preserved in late stage Uinta Lake sediments and coarse-grained fluvial sediments which are stratigraphically 650 to 660 m above the Green River Formation. Deposition rates estimates of 18 to 55 cm/kyr, for Uinta Lake sediments in the Uinta Basin suggest a period of 1.18 Ma to 3.69 Ma to deposit the thick section of lacustrine and fluvial sediments that separates the well-documented Green River Flora from this new fossil leaf assemblage, the Wells Draw flora. Prolific invertebrate trace fossils and invertebrates have a preference for areas with high to fluctuating water tables and soil moistures. The trace fossils are similar to traces of extant invertebrates found in temperate to tropical climates. A variety of reptiles, namely eight species of turtles/tortoise, one lizard (first report of Saniwa from the Uinta Formation), and at least two crocodilian species, are indicative of warm-temperate to subtropical climatic zones. Flow direction data derived from sedimentary structures in sandstone channel-fills confirms previous studies which indicate the major sediment source area was to the east with a prevailing westward to northwestward flow direction. The presence of higher elevation plant material within the flora, however, implies possible hydraulic transport from the nearby Uinta Mountain highlands, located north of the basin. The first report of Palmoxylon from the Uinta Formation, included in this report, corroborates the faunal indicators of a tropical climate. Physiognomical analysis of the flora yields a mean annual temperature (MAT) of 16.1◦C and a mean annual precipitation (MAP) of 56 cm. Compared with older Green River flora, these new data suggest a slight drying and cooling trend toward the end of the Eocene.

Abstract:
El estudio de sistemas léxicos etnobiológicos de las distintas lenguas del mundo es un campo atractivo de investigación para diversas especialidades, principalmente aquellas vinculadas con la biología y la lingüística. Dentro de esta última, el interés se ha centrado en el reconocimiento de procesos formativos de palabras y en el análisis de la riqueza semántica que presenta el complejo sistema de nominación de las especies biológicas. En este contexto, esta investigación desarrolla, desde la semántica cognitiva, el estudio de las nominaciones de plantas y animales (esencialmente binomios de estructura nombre-nombre) en la lengua amazónica awajún hablada por la comunidad de Morroyacu de la región peruana de San Martín. El análisis de los binomios que conforman el corpus reveló que, en awajún, hay mecanismos predominantes que subyacen a la producción léxica etnobiológica, como la metáfora de semejanza y la metonimia. Justamente, la metonimia se presenta fructífera y altamente variada (causa por efecto, hábitat por habitante, objeto empleado por empleador, entre otras) para nominar plantas y animales que hay en el entorno de la comunidad. Además de estos procesos representativos, resultó clave incluir el conocimiento experiencial y cultural (narraciones, creencias, tradiciones) de los hablantes, por cuanto constituyen datos que intervienen en la nominación del léxico etnobiológico.

Abstract:
Lately, the problem of biodiversity conservation is becoming more and more acute due to increase of anthropogenic impact. With the evolution of anthropogenic ecosystems, it also increases the vulnerability of species and biodiversity in general, as a result affecting ecological balance and environmental quality. The purpose of the researches was to evaluate the flora and fauna diversity in the Orhei urban ecosystem. The study was conducted during 2017 in 10 urban stations. Floral researches enumerate the presence of 146 species of magnoliophyte plants, grouped in 127 genera from 45 families. The most numerous were the species of the families: Asteraceae, Fabaceae, Rosaceae and Poaceae. The most frequents species are the eurybionte with wide ecological amplitude, some of which are included in the invasive species category. Vertebrates researches have revealed the fact, that the mammal fauna includes 29 species with a higher effective in the green areas of the urban ecosystem. The birds population of the ecosystem enumerate 58 species, prevail those from order Passeriformes.

Abstract:
A fundamental responsibility of the National Park Service is to ensure that park resources are preserved, protected, and managed in consideration of the resources themselves and for the benefit and enjoyment by the public. Through the inventory, monitoring, and study of park resources, we gain a greater understanding of the scope, significance, distribution, and management issues associated with these resources and their use. This baseline of natural resource information is available to inform park managers, scientists, stakeholders, and the public about the conditions of these resources and the factors or activities which may threaten or influence their stability. There are several different categories of geologic or stratigraphic units (supergroup, group, formation, member, bed) which represent a hierarchical system of classification. The mapping of stratigraphic units involves the evaluation of lithologies, bedding properties, thickness, geographic distribution, and other factors. If a new mappable geologic unit is identified, it may be described and named through a rigorously defined process that is standardized and codified by the professional geologic community (North American Commission on Stratigraphic Nomenclature 2005). In most instances when a new geologic unit such as a formation is described and named in the scientific literature, a specific and well-exposed section of the unit is designated as the type section or type locality (see Definitions). The type section is an important reference section for a named geologic unit which presents a relatively complete and representative profile for this unit. The type or reference section is important both historically and scientifically, and should be recorded such that other researchers may evaluate it in the future. Therefore, this inventory of geologic type sections in NPS areas is an important effort in documenting these locations in order that NPS staff recognize and protect these areas for future studies. The documentation of all geologic type sections throughout the 423 units of the NPS is an ambitious undertaking. The strategy for this project is to select a subset of parks to begin research for the occurrence of geologic type sections within particular parks. The focus adopted for completing the baseline inventories throughout the NPS was centered on the 32 inventory and monitoring networks (I&M) established during the late 1990s. The I&M networks are clusters of parks within a defined geographic area based on the ecoregions of North America (Fenneman 1946; Bailey 1976; Omernik 1987). These networks share similar physical resources (geology, hydrology, climate), biological resources (flora, fauna), and ecological characteristics. Specialists familiar with the resources and ecological parameters of the network, and associated parks, work with park staff to support network level activities (inventory, monitoring, research, data management). Adopting a network-based approach to inventories worked well when the NPS undertook paleontological resource inventories for the 32 I&M networks. The network approach is also being applied to the inventory for the geologic type sections in the NPS. The planning team from the NPS Geologic Resources Division who proposed and designed this inventory selected the Greater Yellowstone Inventory and Monitoring Network (GRYN) as the pilot network for initiating this project. Through the research undertaken to identify the geologic type sections within the parks of the GRYN, methodologies for data mining and reporting on these resources was established. Methodologies and reporting adopted for the GRYN have been used in the development of this type section inventory for the Chihuahuan Desert Inventory & Monitoring Network. The goal of this project is to consolidate information pertaining to geologic type sections which occur within NPS-administered areas, in order that this information is available throughout the NPS...
