Abstract: The Northern region of Buenos Aires province, in Argentina, suffered an uninterrupted increase in rainfall and temperature values during the last decades. The aim of the present contribution is to analyze the ef- fects of such climatic change in the distribution of local flora and fauna. The analysis resulted in the recognition of distributional shifts in a total of 115 species. These changes represented the progressive southern expansion of species typically present in subtropical areas. Because all these changes have a similar orientation and direction, and included a large number of plant and animals with different ecological requirements, it is here postulated that those geographical changes are probably a response to climatic alteration. Key words: Buenos Aires; climate change; riparian forest; species distribution. Resumen: Cambios recientes en la distribución geográfica de plantas y animales en el extremo sur de la provincia biogeográfica Paranaense (noreste de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Argentina): ¿Respuestas ecológicas al cambio climático? La región norte de la provincia de Buenos Aires, en la Argentina, sufrió un incremento ininterrumpido de los valores de precipitación y temperatura durante las últi- mas décadas. El objetivo de esta contribución es analizar los efectos de dicho cambio climático en la distribución de la flora y fauna locales. El análisis resultó en el reconocimiento de corrimientos en la distribución de un total de 115 especies. Estos cambios representaron una expansión progresiva hacia el sur de especies presentes típica- mente en áreas subtropicales. Como todos estos cambios tienen una orientación y dirección similares, e incluyen un gran número de plantas y animales con diferentes requerimientos ecológicos, se postula que estos cambios de distribución geográfica son probablemente una respuesta a la alteración climática.

This FH is consi- dered an adaptation to escape from visually oriented predators. A frequent component of the FH are the tails that presumably re- semble the antennae, and the typical hind wings back-and-forth movement along the sagittal plane (HWM) performed while perching apparently move the tails in a way that mimics antennal movement. By exposing 33 individuals from 18 species of Ly- caenidae to a stuffed insectivorous bird, we tested two alternative hypotheses regarding HWM. The first hypothesis proposes that, when the butterfly is observed at close range, the HWM distorts the shape of the false head thus reducing its deceiving effect and, therefore, selection will favor butterflies that stop moving their wings when a predator is close by; the second hypothesis says that an increase in the frequency of HWM improves its deflective effect when the butterfly confronts a predator at close range.

We explore the influence of each gene region on the support given to each node of the most parsimonious tree derived from a combined analysis of all three genes using Partitioned Bremer Support. We also explore the influence of assuming equal weights for all characters in the combined analysis by investigating the stability of clades to different transition/transversion weighting schemes. We find many strongly supported and stable clades in the Nymphalinae. We are also able to identify ‘rogue’

Las distintas geoformas y depósitos litorales, fluviales y loéssicos caracterizan diferentes ambientes, otorgándole una impronta particular. En el área, desde tiempos históricos, se han producido inundaciones que han ge- nerado pérdidas de diferente magnitud en bienes y vidas humanas. Los factores que influyen en estas catástrofes pueden agruparse en naturales y antrópicos. Dentro de los primeros, los aspectos geomorfológicos y climáticos (sudestadas y precipitaciones) pueden considerarse los más destacables, particularmente las precipitaciones intensas ocasionales, asociadas a las exiguas pendientes de la región. La red de drenaje sobre la que se desarrolló la ciudad presenta importantes desniveles que, al aumentar el escurrimiento, producen la concentración de agua de manera más rápida. Dentro de los factores antrópicos se destacan la urbanización total de la superficie, sin tener en cuenta los aspectos geomorfológicos, ocupando las planicies de inundación e incrementando la imper- meabilización del suelo, con la consecuente pérdida de infiltración.

Aiming to characterize the structure of the arboreal community in a riverine forest remnant of the Taquari river, State of Rio Grande do Sul, 42 sampling units of 100 m2 (10 × 10 m) were located. Phytosociological parameters were also assessed and the indexes of Shannon diversity (H’) and Pielou evenness (J) were evaluated. A total of 39 species, 21 families, 2.83 nats ind-1 for H’ and 0.77 for J were recorded. Among the species found, the endemic Callisthene inundata O.L. Bueno, A.D. Nilson & R.G. Magalh. and Picrasma crenata (Vell.) Engl. are included in the list of endangered species. The density found was of 1,557.14 ind ha-1. Luehea divaricata Mart. and Lonchocarpus nitidus Benth. showed the highest indexes of importance values. Besides contributing to the knowledge of species distribution and community structure, this study points out the need for conservation of existing native forest remnants.
