The exsolution of magnetite from a substituted Yttrium Iron Garnet, containing an iron excess may lead to a transitional event. This event is characterized hy the formation of a transitional zone at the center of which the magnetite nucleates (Fig.1). Since there is a contrast between the matrix and these zones and since selected area diffraction does not show any difference between those zones and the matrix in the reciprocal lattice, it is of interest to analyze the structure of the transitional zones.By using simultaneously different techniques in electron microscopy, (oscillating crystal method microdiffraction and X-ray microanalysis)one may resolve the ionic process corresponding to the transitional event and image this event subsequently by high resolution technique.

Jurasaidae are a family of neotenic elateroid beetles which was described recently from the Brazilian Atlantic Forest biodiversity hotspot based on three species in two genera. All life stages live in the soil, including the larviform females, and only adult males are able to fly. Here, we report the discovery of two new species, Jurasai miraculum sp. nov. and J. vanini sp. nov., and a new, morphologically remarkable population of J. digitusdei Rosa et al., 2020. Our discovery sheds further light on the diversity and biogeography of the group. Most species of Jurasaidae are known from the rainforest remnants of the Atlantic Forest, but here for the first time we report a jurasaid species from the relatively drier Atlantic Forest/Caatinga transitional zone. Considering our recent findings, minute body size and cryptic lifestyle of all jurasaids, together with potentially high numbers of yet undescribed species of this family from the Atlantic Forest and possibly also other surrounding ecoregions, we call for both field research in potentially suitable localities as well as for a detailed investigation of a massive amount of already collected but still unprocessed materials deposited in a number of Brazilian institutes, laboratories and collections.
