IS YOURS! It has never been so easy to travel throughout Brazil and discover its natural beauty, rich culture and delicious food A WARM WELCOME Few countries offer so much to visitors as Bra- zil. And we’re not only talking about its natu- ral beauty – places like Cataratas do Iguaçu, the incredible Lençóis Maranhenses, the unique Amazonian landscape, the unforgettable bea- ches of Rio de Janeiro. The list could go on and on, with spots not to be missed, but Brazil is much more than its landmarks. Brazilians are so warm and friendly that tourists immediately feel at home staying here – after only a few days, many of them join Carnival parades in Pernambuco and Rio de Janeiro, take part in the Bonfim feast in Salvador, watch in awe the folkloric festival of Parintins and are eager to party at Saint John’s celebrations in the Northeast. Museums, plays and art exhibitions, the buzzy nightlife, hikes through national parks, and the possibility to take back home some charming arts and crafts could also be a good enough reason to visit, but nothing would be the same without Brazilian hospitality. It gets even better at the table: there’s not a single person who wouldn’t like to get along with visitors over a shot of cachaça or a caipirinha, or offer them typical local dishes made with ingredients from the sea or from the forest, genuinely Brazilian or influenced by its many immigrants. From simple recipes in homely places to incredible food in fancy ENDLESS restaurants, our memorable gastronomy WATER invites everyone to come back again and again.

The vegetation of the municipality is characterized mainly by an ecotone between the Sea- sonal Semideciduous Forest and Mixed Ombrophilous Forest. We recorded 56 species, distributed in 31 genera and 16 families. The most representative families were Pteridaceae (14) and Polypo- diaceae (11) and the wealthier genre was Thelypteris (6). The terricolous species were predomi- nant (72%) and the preferential environments were riparian vegetation and forest interior (70%). The flora of Campo Mourão was more similar to the studies conducted in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, and the cophenetic correlation coefficient (r = 0.9058) showed a consistent adjust.

In this biome, bees perform the most frequent pollination system. Over the last decade, network analysis has been extensively applied to the study of plant–pollinator interactions, as it provides a consistent view of the structure of plant–pollinator interactions. The aim of this study was to use palynological studies to obtain an understanding of the relationship between floral visitor bees and the pioneer plant S. didymum in a fragment of the Atlantic Forest, and also learn about the other plants that interact to form this network. Five hundred bees were collected from 32 species distributed into five families: Andrenidae, Apidae, Colletidae, Megachilidae, and Halictidae. The interaction network consisted of 21 bee species and 35 pollen types.

  • Escolarização E Demografia Na Capitania De Porto Seguro
    Revista do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudo de Linguagens Universidade do Estado da Bahia – UNEB Departamento de Ciências Humanas – DCH I NÚMERO 03 – dezembro de 2011 ISSN: 2176-5782 Escolarização e demografia na capitania de Porto Seguro Rosa Virgínia MATTOS E SILVA1 Emília Helena Portella Monteiro de SOUZA2 RESUMO: Este artigo trata da escolarização e demografia em Porto Seguro e se insere no âmbito dos estudos do PHPB, relativos à investigação da história social linguística do Brasil. Tem-se, como objetivo geral, apresentar o levantamento do percurso histórico de Porto Seguro, quanto à demografia e à escolarização, do século XVI ao século XIX. Como objetivos específicos, identificar o contingente populacional existente nesses séculos, nesse local; identificar, do ponto de vista educacional, qual(quais) o(s) sistema(s) de ensino, quem eram os docentes, e a quantos esse ensino atingia. A pesquisa desenvolvida se deu em fontes primárias, como relatórios e falas de Presidentes da Província da Bahia, e em fontes secundárias, censos e livros de historiadores do século XVIII, em diante. A investigação histórica sobre o português brasileiro passa por seu território, pelas populações que viveram em cada região, administrativamente constituída, desde o século XVI, com a divisão em capitanias. O decreto pombalino, no século XVIII, instituindo o português como língua oficial de comunicação, e outras determinações, teve repercussões do ponto de vista, não só social, administrativo, mas educacional. Pretende-se responder como essas fases se constituíram em Porto Seguro, no que diz respeito às suas populações sucessivas, e ao seu sistema educacional, considerando os séculos sob observação. Palavras-chave: Porto Seguro; Demografia; Escolarização; Século XVI ao XIX.
