The “caxeta” [Tabebuia cassinoides (Lam.) DC., Bignoniaceae] is exclusive of Brazil, where it occurs in flooded areas of the coastal plains, between the states of Pernambuco and Santa Catarina, forming large populations called “caxetais”. Bryophytes collections were made in 1988, 1993 and 1995, in the “caxetal” of Ubatuba, SP, Brazil. The material is deposited in the Herbaria SP and HRCB. This paper lists two divisions of bryophytes, with the total of 25 families, 61 genera, 109 species, one subspecies and four varieties. Lejeuneaceae totals the largest numbers of genera, species and of collected samples. The bryophytes were usually found on bark of living phorophytes and in a single kind of substrate. The bryoflora from “caxetal” is similar to that one reported for the Atlantic rain forest of the State of São Paulo. The liverworts Colura cylindrica and Leptolejeunea obfuscata are new records for the State of São Paulo

A new record of Lontra longicaudis (Olfers, 1818) in the Massaguaçu River estuary (São Paulo, Brazil) is reported based on indirect (footprints and feces) and direct registers of otters presence. This record details the otter distribution in the Atlantic Rain Forest.

Este estudo teve como objetivo realizar um levantamento das famílias Hydropsychidae e Leptoceridae (Trichoptera) do Parque Estadual Intervales, um dos últimos remanescentes florestais de Mata Atlântica do Estado de São Paulo. As coletas foram realizadas em diferentes riachos do Parque entre julho de 2010 e agosto de 2013. Foram coletados 2.319 indivíduos machos, totalizando 29 espécies, 17 da família Hydropsychidae e 12 de Leptoceridae. Dentre essas espécies, duas não possuíam registro para o Estado de São Paulo.Hydropsychidae Curtis and Leptoceridae Leach (Insecta, Trichoptera) from Parque Estadual Intervales, Serra de Paranapiacaba, São Paulo State, BrazilAbstract. This study aimed to survey the caddisfly families Hydropsychidae and Leptoceridae from Intervales State Park, one of the last remaining of the Atlantic Rain Forest of São Paulo State. The collections were carried out in several streams between July 2010 and August 2013. Were collected 2,319  males, totaling 29 species, 17 of the Hydropsychidae and 12 of Leptoceridae. Among these species, two had no record for the State of São Paulo.

Ferns And Lycophytes

We present the floristic survey of ferns and lycophytes from the “Parque Estadual Turístico do Alto Ribeira” (PETAR), a remnant of Atlantic Rain Forest of Southeastern Brazil, in São Paulo state. Besides a complete list of species, we also provide information on habit, geographic distribution, and conservation status. Among the 237 taxa, there are 235 species, one variety and one hybrid, distributed in 29 families and 74 genera. Ferns are represented by 223 taxa, whereas the lycophytes were represented by 14. The most representative families are Polypodiaceae (31 spp.), Pteridaceae (29 spp.) and Dryopteridaceae (28 spp.). The most diverse genera are Thelypteris (23 spp.), Asplenium (19 spp.), Elaphoglossum and Blechnum (10 spp. each). Noteworthy is the presence of Ctenitis anniesii, Dicksonia sellowiana, Elaphoglossum iguapense, E. prestonii, E. strictum, Thelypteris concinna, T. araucariensis and T. hatschbachii, all of them considered as endangered species in São Paulo state.

Unique Species

Brazil hosts the richest biodiversity of bioluminescent beetles in the world. Several species are found in the Atlantic rain forest, one of the richest and most threatened tropical forests in the world. We have catalogued the biodiversity of bioluminescent species mainly of Elateroidea superfamily occurring in one of the last largest and most preserved remnants of Atlantic rain forest, located at the Biological Station of Boracéia of São Paulo University (Salesopolis, SP, Brazil). This site accounted with the largest diversity ever found for a single place in São Paulo State, with 39 species: Lampyridae (30), Phengodidae (5), Elateridae (3) and Staphylinidae (1). This fauna has unique species that were not found in any other places of Atlantic forest in São Paulo state, especially fireflies from the Lampyrinae tribes (Cratomorphini, Lamprocerini, Lucidotini), the subfamilies Amydetinae and Photurinae, and the phengodids Pseudophengodes and Brasilocerus sp.2. Most species are found in dense Ombrophyl forest or at their border, and a few ones are found dwelling in the few open fields around the forest. There is a predominance of glowing patterns in the green region among forest inhabiting species when compared with open field fireflies.

Biogenic Structures

As minhocas desempenham papeis importantes na formação do solo, contudo pouca atenção é dada à bioturbação pelos pedólogos. A descrição morfológica tradicional, assim como os procedimentos de caracterização física e química do solo, não contemplam as estruturas biogênicas, que nem mesmo são consideradas pelo Sistema Brasileiro de Classificação de Solos. O objetivo deste trabalho foi caracterizar as feições biogênicas como canais, câmaras e dejeções, produzidas pela atividade de minhocas no solo da Estação Biológica de Boracéia, em São Paulo. As bioestruturas foram coletadas, medidas, fotografadas e organizadas por tipo (cilíndricos e blocos irregulares) e tamanho (muito pequeno, pequeno, médio, grande e muito grande). Foram realizadas análises físicas e químicas destes materiais e do solo: granulometria, carbono orgânico, bases trocáveis (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, P). Alguns canais biogênicos encontravam-se preenchidos por solo revolvido (as crotovinas) e outros não. As características redoximórficas são muito comuns nas paredes dos canais, porque esses dutos biogênicos contribuem para a difusão de O2 do solo e a remoção de CO2 no perfil. As dejeções têm textura arenosa, o conteúdo de carbono orgânico nelas é três vezes superior comparado ao da matriz do solo, indicando a eficiência de certos grupos ecológicos de anelídeos na incorporação de matéria orgânica em subsuperfície. Os coprólitos também apresentaram maiores quantidades de fósforo, cálcio e magnésio do que o solo. As minhocas cumprem funções fundamentais no solo, como aeração, agregação, incorporação de matéria orgânica e aumento de sua fertilidade. Portanto, os agregados biogênicos influenciam fortemente na pedogênese, especialmente na zona tropical.
