Lithic blades are long and narrow flakes produced from prepared cores which form part of different technological complexes all around the world. In South America, the production and use of blades has been reported in different settings which include early hunter-gatherer occupations of the Pleistocene-Holocene transition, as well as Middle and Late Holocene occupations. Until now, the only reference to blade technology in Brazil comes from the south and corresponds to Early Holocene hunter-gatherer assemblages. This paper presents a second record of lithic blades in Brazil, which includes one fragment and three refitted artifacts manufactured from fine-grained silicified sandstone recovered from a surface site (Picão), which is located in the Dourado Municipality, central São Paulo state. Analysis undertaken on the blades involved the collection of metric data, including longitudinal curvature, and the elaboration of diacritic schemes which consider the direction and order of the observed remnant scars for interpreting the chronological sequence of removals. Results indicate the production of ³70.5 mm-long, softly curved blades, with evidence of preparation of the point of impact prior to extraction from the core, as well as the presence of unidirectional, parallel scars related to blade production from a single striking platform. These reduction characteristics resemble those encountered in the nearest contexts of southern Brazil and northern Uruguay, although differences also exist. In spite of the lack of chronological data, this new record of blades in central São Paulo state calls for more research into the origins and dispersion of this technology in southeastern South America.

AbstractThree new calicioid lichens are described from the Neotropics. Mazaediothecium uniseptatum, with 1-septate ascospores, is described from French Guiana. Mycocalicium enterographicola, with turbinate, green-pruinose apothecia and stalk and a distinct mazaedium, occurring lichenicolous on Enterographa cf. quassiaecola Fée, is described from Sergipe State in Brazil. Stenocybe tropica, with 3-septate ascospores remaining clustered in the mouth of the apothecium, and persistent asci, is described from mangrove tree bark in São Paulo State, Brazil.

The ultimate stadium larva of Lauromacromia picinguaba Carvalho, Salgado & Werneck-de-Carvalho is described and illustrated based on reared specimens from Picinguaba, Ubatuba, São Paulo state, Brazil, some of which belong to the type-series. All material is deposited in the Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), Rio de Janeiro. General notes on larval biology and the breeding habitat are provided. A generic key for South American Corduliidae larvae is appended.

Heimbra bicolor Subba Rao, 1978 (Hymenoptera, Eurytomidae) was previously known in Mexico, Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil, with records in Federal District and Rio Grande do Norte, Minas Gerais, and Santa Catarina states. Here, we newly report this species from the state of São Paulo based on three females collected at Estação Ecológica de Jataí, in the municipality of Luiz Antônio, São Paulo state, Brazil. Additionally, we provide a map with the geographical distribution of the species based on the new record and literature. This record increases the number of species of Heimbra known in São Paulo state to two species.

ABSTRACT (Freshwater hyphomycetes in a preserved insular system from Brazil: first records at Parque Estadual da Ilha do Cardoso, municipality of Cananéia, São Paulo State). To survey freshwater hyphomycetes from insular water bodies at the Parque Estadual da Ilha do Cardoso State Park, in Cananéia municipality, São Paulo State, Brazil, submerged mixed leaf litter samples were collected from six sites from June 2012 to February 2013. The samples were taken to the laboratory and incubated in Petri dishes containing sterile distilled water at room temperature (20oC). From the 5th day on, until at least one month, fragments of the leaf litter samples were examined under the microscope, resulting in the morphological identification of 33 taxa. Among those, two are new records for the state of São Paulo and four for Brazil. Descriptions and pictures of each new record are presented.

The baurusuchids are medium-sized crocodylomorphs with terrestrial habits, found in the Gondwana Cretaceous basins of South America and Paleogene basins of Europe and Africa. Since 1945 many skeletal remains have been found on Western of São Paulo State, in rocks of Adamantina Formation, Bauru Basin (Late Cretaceous). The vicinities of General Salgado County, São Paulo State, had revealed well-preserved and articulated fossils of baurusuchids, allowing studies on the their paleoecology and paleobiology.
