First record of four Alysiinae species (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) from Brazil.

Studying material from decayed fruits, dung, carrion, “sweeping” vegetation, Malaise, Moericke and light traps from Brazilian localities, four Alysiinae (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) species were found: Aphaereta confusa Wharton, 1994; Idiasta (Idiasta) delicata (Papp, 1969); Gnathopleura astarte (Haliday, 1838) and G. semirufa (Brullé, 1846) specimens. All these species have Neotropical distributi...

Parasitism OF NEosilba pErEzi (DiPtera: LOnchaeiDae) LarVae BY a BracOniD, pHaENoCarpa NEosilba (hYmenOPtera: BracOniDae: aLYsiinae)

Neosilba perezi (romero & ruppel) is known as the cassava shoot fly or shoot fly, because, unlike other species of its genus, its larvae feed exclusively on shoots of cassava (Manihot esculenta crantz). these larvae kill the affected cassava shoots. natural parasitism by a braconid, phaenocarpa neosilba arouca & Penteado-Dias, 2006, on shoot fly larvae was studied at 3 locations in the southwes...

Aumento de Resolução Temporal de Sequências de Imagens do Trato Vocal por meio de Registro das Imagens

Dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an emerging technique for studying speech production. In general, vocal tract image sequences are acquired during the speech of a word or phoneme. These sequences allow the identification of shapes taken by the vocal tract during speech production. However, there is no prior knowledge about the spatial and temporal resolution requirements, which are e...
