RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo foi conhecer a diversidade de espécies de moscas-das-frutas (Diptera: Tephritidae) na região do Baixo Jaguaribe. As coletas das moscas-das-frutas foram realizadas de outubro/2002 a dezembro/2003, utilizando-se armadilhas McPhail e proteína hidrolisada de milho a 5% (atrativo alimentar). As armadilhas foram instaladas em frutíferas potencialmente hospedeiras de moscas-das-frutas: goiaba Psidium guajava, manga Mangifera indica, serigüela Spondias purpurea, acerola Malpighiaemarginata, carambola Avherroacarambola, mamão Carica papaya e melão Cucumis melo. No laboratório, as moscas-das-frutas foram separadas dos outros insetos capturados, contadas e acondicionadas em recipientes com álcool 70%, até a identificação específica. As espécies coletadas foram: Anastrepha zenildae Zucchi (74,59%), Anastrepha sororcula Zucchi (13,87%), Anastrepha obliqua (Macquart) (1,08%), Anastrepha daciformis Bezzi (0,09%),Anastrepha consobrina (Loew) (0,09%), Anastrepha pickeli Lima (0,09%) e Ceratitis capitata (Wied.) (10,19%).

En la costa de Granada, sureste de España, se encuentra una zona de frutales subtropicales en laderas, distribuidos en terrazas. Se evaluaron tasas de descomposición y liberación de nitrógeno (N) de hojarasca, en dos ecosistemas: (1) ecosistema de ladera inalterado (ELI) sin cultivo agrícola, con cubierta de vegetación autóctona, y (2) ecosistema de ladera alterado (ELA) con frutales de mango (Mangifera indica L.), aguacate (Persea americana Mill.), chirimoyo (Annona cherimolia Mill.), níspero (Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl.), y cubiertas de plantas aromáticas y medicinales (PAM) en los taludes de las terrazas. En ELA la tasa de descomposición de hojarasca de chirimoyo fue la más alta, y entre las PAM la alhucema rizada (Lavandula dentata L.), así como la mejorana (Thymus mastichina L.), alhucema rizada (Lavandula dentata L.) y ajedrea (Satureja obovata Lag.) registraron altas tasas de liberación de N. En ELI acebuche (Olea europea L.) y bolina (Genista umbellata (L'Hér.) Dum., tuvieron bajas tasas de descomposición. Las PAM en ELA pueden contribuir a restablecer los ciclos naturales de reciclado de nutrientes, minimizando los efectos del cambio de uso del suelo.

Sri Lanka is a habitat of diverse fruit varieties; nevertheless 95% of them are underutilized by people due to unawareness of their nutritional values and health aspects, and hence become ‘minor fruits’. This study was aimed on revealing vitamin C, iron and antioxidant contents of 29 varieties of minor fruits (MFs) with the comparison of the same with three best commonly consumable fruits (CFs), namely Carica papaya, Mangifera indica and Psidium guajava. Ascorbic acid (Asc), dehydroascorbic acid (DAsc), vitamin C (TC), phenolic (TP), flavonoid (TF), iron (Fe) contents and antioxidant capacities (AOCs) of fruits were determined using standard methods. The results of mean Asc, DAsc, TC, TP, TF and Fe contents in 100 gm of MFs ranged from 3.1 to 121.5 mg, 1.2 to 70.7 mg, 6.6 to 136.1 mg, 24.9 to 1613.3 mg Gallic acid equivalent, 6.2 to 228.0 mg Quercetin equivalents and 0.2 to 4.9 mg respectively. DPPH and Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) assays were used for AOCs and variation of IC50 values in a DPPH assay was 1.2 to 245.4 mg/ml whereas FRAP values ranged from 9.6 to 486.7 ?mol FeSO4/gm. Among the studied minor fruits, Melastoma malabathricum (Maha bovitiya/ Malabar melastome) is found as the best respect to all considered parameters. As a conclusion, it can be stated that, the Sri Lankan minor fruits are good alternatives to the common fruits as they are recognized as good source of vitamin C, iron and higher content of antioxidants. As an outcome, Sri Lankan minor fruits can be promoted as alternatives to common fruits and as source of revenue for national economy.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been linked with oxidative stress, acetylcholine deficiency in the brain, and inflammatory processes. In the northeast region of Brazil, various plants are used to treat several diseases associated with these processes; then an antioxidant test was performed with those plants in a previous work and twelve species with higher antioxidant activity were selected for AChE inhibition evaluation. The phenolic compounds content was determined by Folin–Ciocalteu test and flavonoid content with AlCl3reagent using UV-visible spectrophotometry. The antioxidant activity was assessed analyzing the inhibitory activity against 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonate (ABTS) and by theβ-carotene/linoleic acid system and acetylcholinesterase inhibition using qualitative and quantitative tests. The combination of better acetylcholinesterase inhibitory and antioxidant activities pointed out six species, in descending order, as the best potential sources of therapeutic agents against AD:Hancornia speciosa > Myracrodruon urundeuva > Copaifera langsdorffii > Stryphnodendron coriaceum > Psidium guajava > Mangifera indica. Besides, the phenolic compounds in the species probably contribute to these activities. However, further pharmacological studies to assess the specific applications of these plants against AD are required to confirm these results.

This study records the occurrence of eucoilines (Hymenoptera: Figitidae), parasitoids of the African fig fly Zaprionus indianus Gupta (Diptera: Drosophilidae), in the Brazilian semi-arid Caatinga biome. We obtained from mango (Mangifera indica L.) and guava (Psidium guajava L.) fruits Drosophilidae pupae, which developed into Z. indianus and two species of Eucoilinae parasitoids, Dicerataspis grenadensis Ashmead and Leptopilina boulardi (Barbotin, Carlton & Kelner-Pillaut). This is the first record of the parasitoids D. grenadensis and L. boulardi in the Caatinga biome.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui jenis pohon yang sesuai untuk rain garden, jumlah stomata, proporsi penutupan kanopi dan kandungan air dalam daun dari beberapa jenis pohon teduhan, serta hubungan antara jumlah stomata daun dengan luas daun, jika terdapat faktor proporsi kandungan air yang diduga mempengaruhi akan dikendalikan. Data yang diperoleh di analisis  proporsi kandungan air dalam daun, proporsi penutupan kanopi, dan jumlah stomata dengan menggunakan analisis deskriptif. Untuk mengetahui hubungan antara luas daun, proporsi penutupan kanopi dan kandungan air dalam daun pada pohon teduhan digunakan analisis korelasi parsial dengan bantuan SPSS versi 17. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian terhadap kerapatan stomata dalam ukuran  1cm², diperolehlah 10 jenis pohon teduhan tertinggi seperti Psidium guajava (jambu biji), Mangifera casturi (kasturi), Hevea brasiliensis  (karet), Pithecellobium lobatum (jengkol), Mangifera indica (mangga), Theobroma cacao (coklat), Persea americana (alpukat), Eugenia aquea (jambu air), Gnetum gnemon (melinjo), dan Arthocarpus heterophyllus (nangka). Kerapatan stomata daun tidak berhubungan terhadap luas daun pada pohon teduhan. Kata kunci: pohon teduhan rain garden, stomata. This study aims to determine the type of tree suitable for rain garden, number of stomata, the proportion of canopy closure and water content in the leaves of several types of shade trees, and the relationship between the number of leaf stomata to leaf area, if there is a proportion factor thought to affect the water content will be controlled. Data obtained in the analysis of the proportion of water content in the leaves, the proportion of canopy closure, the location of the tree, and the number of stomata by using descriptive analysis. To determine the relationship between leaf area, the proportion of canopy closure and water content in the leaves of the shade trees used partial correlation analysis with SPSS version 17. Based on the results of a study of the density of stomata in the size of 1 cm², found 10 species of trees shade the best such as Psidium guajava (guava), Mangifera casturi (kasturi), Hevea brasiliensis (rubber), Pithecellobium lobatum (jengkol), Mangifera indica (mango), Theobroma cacao (brown), Persea americana (avocado), Eugenia aquea (rose apple), Gnetum gnemon (melinjo), and Arthocarpus heterophyllus (jackfruit). The density of leaf stomata are not related to the broad leaves of the shade tree. Keywords: rain garden, shade tree, stomata.
