Abstract:
<p>El enfoque respetuoso de esta intervención, que ha considerado a la fábrica histórica como un testimonio genuino de su autenticidad y ha respetado en consecuencia todas las trazas e improntas de su estratificación, constituye un excelente botón de muestra para otras intervenciones de restauración en fachadas de edificios y monumentos. El uso de técnicas y materiales tradicionales como la consolidación con agua de cal ha garantizado la compatibilidad y la reversibilidad de la intervención. El proceso de ejecución representa igualmente un magnífico ejemplo de coordinación en una obra de restauración de gran envergadura.</p>

Abstract:
Una alternativa de comercialización del chile 'Jalapeño' (Capsicum annum L.) en México es mediante el proceso del ahumado y deshidratado cuyo producto es conocido como “Chipotle”. El ahumado es una técnica que además de conservar los alimentos les proporciona un aroma y sabor especial, y se realiza tradicionalmente en un horno a campo abierto, por lo que existe la preocupación de la posible contaminación fecal y física acarreada por el viento. En este trabajo se determinó la calidad del “Chipotle” en el eslabón de la cadena de producción: ahumado y deshidratado, en función de tratamientos asociados con buenas prácticas de manejo (BPM) para este proceso. Los tratamientos para reducir al mínimo el riesgo de contaminación durante el proceso fueron: 1. Colocación de una malla antigranizo sobre el horno; 2. Evitar el contacto directo del obrero con el fruto; y 3. Desinfestar los instrumentos de trabajo. Con estas sencillas BPM se logró una buena calidad microbiológica (coliformes fecales y E. coli no detectables) y ausencia de contaminación física del “Chipotle”. Cuando no se aplicaron todas las actividades relacionadas con las BPM se observó contaminación con coliformes fecales, hasta de 210 NMP/g en el fruto de “Chipotle”.

Abstract:
<p>La producción de harina de lombriz comprende varias etapas, la más crítica es el proceso de secado debido a factores como el tiempo y los requerimientos energéticos. En la literatura, la información disponible acerca de dicho proceso es limitada. Debido a esto, en el presente trabajo, se evaluaron cuatro técnicas de secado viables a ser implementadas por lombricultores:al sol, en horno, en túnel de secado y asistido por microondas. Para todas las técnicas, se obtuvieron cinéticas de secado y se evaluaron parámetros específicos como: material de las bandejas de secado al sol (acero inoxidable y cerámico), potencia (30 %,50 % y 80 %) y cantidad de material a secar (72 y 100 g) para secado por microondas, temperatura (50, 65,90 y 100 °C) para secado en horno, y temperatura (50 y 63 °C) y velocidad del aire (2,9 y 3,6 m/s) para secado en túnel de secado. Como resultado,se encontró que la técnica más eficiente es el túnel de secado, debido a que combina la transferencia de calor por conducción y convección y permite el control de los parámetros de operación. Finalmente,se realizaron análisis bromatológicos a las muestras obtenidas en cada técnica de secado. El contenido de proteína cruda para secado al sol, secado en microondas, horno y túnel de secado fueron,respectivamente: 66,36 %, 67,91 %, 60,35 % y 62,33 %, lo que indica que el método de secado y los parámetros de operación no afectan de manera significativa el contenido de proteína cruda.</p>

Abstract:
A new species of the Asian horned toad genus Megophrys is described from Zhejiang Province, China, based on multiple data. Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on mitochondrial DNA indicated the new species as an independent clade deeply clustered into the Megophrys clade. The new species is identified from its congeners by a combination of the following characters: body size small (SVL 28.4–32.4 mm in males); vomerine teeth absent; tongue not notched behind; tympanum distinctly visible, oval; a small horn-like tubercle present at the edge of each upper eyelid; two metacarpal tubercles distinctly visible in hand; toes without webbing; heels overlapped when thighs are positioned at right angles to the body; tibiotarsal articulation reaching the level to middle of eye when leg stretched forward; an internal single subgular vocal sac in male; in breeding male, the nuptial pads present on the dorsal base of the first two fingers.

Abstract:
A new species of the genus Megophrys is described from Guizhou Province, China. Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA sequences all strongly supported the new species as an independent clade sister to M. minor and M. jiangi. The new species could be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of the following characters: body size moderate (SVL 43.4–44.1 mm in males, and 44.8–49.8 mm in females; vomerine teeth absent; tongue not notched behind; a small horn-like tubercle at the edge of each upper eyelid; tympanum distinctly visible, rounded; two metacarpal tubercles on palm; relative finger lengths II &lt; I &lt; V &lt; III; toes without webbing; heels overlapping when thighs are positioned at right angles to the body; tibiotarsal articulation reaching the level between tympanum and eye when leg stretched forward; in breeding males, an internal single subgular vocal sac in male, and the nuptial pads with black spines on dorsal surface of bases of the first two fingers.

Abstract:
A new species of genus Megophrys from Gaoligong Mountains, Yunnan Province, China is described. Phylogenetic analyses based on mitochondrial DNA and nuclear DNA all clustered the new species as an independent clade nested into the subgenus Panophrys. The smallest genetic distance based on 16S rRNA gene between the new species and its congeners was 3.0%. The new species could be identified from its congeners by a combination of following characters: moderate body size (SVL 31.0–34.8 mm in males); vomerine ridge weak, vomerine teeth absent; dorsal skin relatively smooth; tongue slightly notched behind; tympanum rounded and relatively large, 0.54 times of eye length; a horn-like tubercle on edge of each upper eyelid small; tibio-tarsal articulation reaches middle eye when leg stretched forward; finger tips rounded, not expanded to small pad; toes with narrow fringes and rudimentary webbing; ventral hindlimbs semitransparent purplish with greyish white pigments; ventral body scattered with distinct dark patches in the middle.

Abstract:
Se realizó un estudio espacial y temporal de la macrofauna bentónica en la zona intermareal de la Playa Pochomil, Nicaragua, en tres sitios denominados S.A (sitio arenoso), SRR (sitio rocoso con río) y S.R (sitio rocoso), respectivamente. Al final del estudio se contabilizaron un total de 596 individuos pertenecientes a cuatro Filos (Molusca, Anélida, Artrópoda y Equinodermata). La diversidad de macrofauna bentónica calculada mediante el índice de Shannon-Weaver, refleja valores de diversidad muy bajos durante todas las épocas de muestreo. Mediante el índice de Jaccard y Morisita-Horn, se evidenció que hubo baja similitud de especies. Además, se comprobó que la temporalidad no tuvo efecto directo significativo sobre la abundancia y distribución de la macrofauna bentónica, sino que ésta fue influenciada principalmente por las características físicas de los sitios de muestreo

Abstract:
Bill Brooks is worried about the future of his organization, perhaps even more than he is about the future of horned lizards. Brooks is the president and a founding member of the Horned Lizard Conservation Society, a nonprofit with the goal of protecting all species of horned lizard. The HLCS was founded in Austin in 1991, after its members realized that populations of Texas horned lizards, Phrynosoma cornutum, had crashed at some point in the preceding decades; they wanted to both figure out what had happened to the lizards and how to bring them back. Cornutum is an iconic species and the state reptile, and almost all Texans over the age of 40 can remember seeing them in the hundreds as children. Flash-forward a quarter of a century, and a lot of these founding members are either old and grey or deceased. HLCS membership is down, and Brooks thinks that if there aren’t any of his kind left (Texans that grew up with “horny toads”), there’ll be no one left to care. Herpetologists are working on returning healthy horned lizard populations to the wild, and both reintroduction and relocation programs are showing signs of success. But can they work, and will it be too late for Brooks’ organization and a Texas identity dependent upon horned lizards?

Abstract:
Following his failed overland campaign, Banks attempted once more to achieve a foothold in Texas, thus defusing the threat of French intervention on the side of Confederacy, this time with an amphibious landing near the mouth of the Rio Grande. Although his troops were able to land successfully and occupy much of the south Texas Gulf coast, the operation was of little strategic importance and the Federal units were withdrawn to support Banks’s next attempt, a second overland expedition against Texas by way of the Red River.
