    Predation on Italian newt larva, Lissotriton italicus (Amphibia, Caudata, Salamandridae), by Agabus bipustulatus (Insecta, Coleoptera, Dytiscidae) LUIGI CORSETTI1 and GIANLUCA NARDI2 1 Via Adige, 45.

I-46045 Marmirolo (MN), Italy. 2 Author for correspondence: [email protected] ABSTRACT — Predation of a larva of Lissotriton italicus by adults of a diving beetle (Agabus bipustulatus) on the Aurunci Mountains (central Italy, Latium region) is recorded. This is the first identified invertebrate predator of this Italian endemic newt. The possible role of this beetle in the local demographic control of the newt is briefly discussed. HE Italian Newt, Lissotriton italicus (Peracca), (Latina province, Castelforte, Monte Siola W-SW Tpreviously referred to the genus Triturus slope, 240 m a.s.l). No other amphibians occurred (Rafinesque), is endemic to central and southern in the pond, which was probably feebly trickle fed Italy. The northern most limits of its distribution by a very small spring. In this pond about 15 adults include an oblique area extended from the Ancona of a predaceous diving beetle, Agabus bipustulatus province (Marches region) South to Lepini (Linnaeus) (Insecta, Coleoptera, Dytiscidae) were Mountains (Latium region, Rome province), on observed attacking a larva of the Italian Newt. The the Adriatic and Tyrrhenian sides of the Apennines, larva was initially attacked by a single beetle that respectively (Corsetti et al., 2005; Balletto, 2006; was quickly followed by the others and was Scillitani et al., 2006; Scillitani & Tripepi, 2007). devoured, almost completely, in about 10-15 It is a euryoecious species living in a wide range seconds.

  • Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N
    Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N. Purcell, 1997 Introduction The landscape of central Italy has not been intrinsically stable. The steep slopes of the mountains have been deforested–several times in many cases–with consequent erosion; frane or avalanches remove large tracts of regolith, and doubly obliterate the archaeological record. In the valley-bottoms active streams have deposited and eroded successive layers of fill, sealing and destroying the evidence of settlement in many relatively favored niches. The more extensive lowlands have also seen substantial depositions of alluvial and colluvial material; the coasts have been exposed to erosion, aggradation and occasional tectonic deformation, or–spectacularly in the Bay of Naples– alternating collapse and re-elevation (“bradyseism”) at a staggeringly rapid pace. Earthquakes everywhere have accelerated the rate of change; vulcanicity in Campania has several times transformed substantial tracts of landscape beyond recognition–and reconstruction (thus no attempt is made here to re-create the contours of any of the sometimes very different forerunners of today’s Mt. Vesuvius). To this instability must be added the effect of intensive and continuous intervention by humanity. Episodes of depopulation in the Italian peninsula have arguably been neither prolonged nor pronounced within the timespan of the map and beyond. Even so, over the centuries the settlement pattern has been more than usually mutable, which has tended to obscure or damage the archaeological record. More archaeological evidence has emerged as modern urbanization spreads; but even more has been destroyed. What is available to the historical cartographer varies in quality from area to area in surprising ways.

  • 1 Gazes of Race, Immigration, and Hegemony in Io Sto Con
    A. TESTA: RACE, IMMIGRATION, AND HEGEMONY IN RECENT ITALIAN CINEMA GAZES OF RACE, IMMIGRATION, AND HEGEMONY IN IO STO CON LA SPOSA (ON THE BRIDE’S SIDE) AND COME UN UOMO SULLA TERRA (LIKE A MAN ON THE EARTH) Author: Alessandra Testa Faculty Sponsor: Simona Wright, Department of World Languages ABSTRACT Voices opposing commonly-held perceptions of immigration, Europe, the Global South, and devastating border control policies are becoming more prominent and are challenging the mainstream narrative. Rigorous border control policies created by individual countries within Europe reflect a feeling of being threatened by immigrants from the Global South who invoke Europe’s colonial past. Differences between the dominating hegemonic gaze enjoyed by Italy actively work to marginalize and silence voices presenting a different, less Eurocentric perspective. This paper traces Italy’s background as a colonial, Fascist power to understand the modern-day foreclosed racial elements and postcolonialist sentiments manifested in immigration policies. They are designed to exclude and make Europe and its Southern Mediterranean border into a fortress. Films and documentaries created by Europeans and immigrants offer striking differences in their creators’ points of view and possibly their biases. Comparing and contrasting Gabriele Del Grande’s crowdfunded, award-winning ‘road film’ Io Sto Con La Sposa (On the Bride’s Side) with Dagmawi Yimer’s documentary Come Un Uomo Sulla Terra (Like a Man On Earth) allows us to understand the differing perspectives’ the construction and manifestation of the other take as the issue of migration is observed from the South and from the North. INTRODUCTION Miguel Mellino’s De-Provincializing Italy: Notes on Race, Racialization, and Italy’s Coloniality uses Italy’s conflicted postcolonial past to understand treatment towards immigrants crossing the Mediterranean.

  • Il Vulcano Laziale
    Parco Regionale dei Castelli Romani IL VULCANO LAZIALE A cura di Flavio Comandini 1 a cura di Flavio Comandini IL PARCO DEI CASTELLI ROMANI Visione da ovest dell’area. Roma si trova sulla sinistra dell’immagine. Si osservino i 16 centri abitati. Sono evidenziate in verde scuro le aree boscate ed in verde chiaro quelle con bassa densità arborea. Ben visibili i due laghi ed il terzo ormai svuotato. I confini del Parco, per motivi di solo interesse fondiario, non coincidono con l’area del vulcano. 2 a cura di Flavio Comandini IL PARCO DEI CASTELLI ROMANI 3 a cura di Flavio Comandini I vulcani che bordano il versante tirrenico della penisola italiana, dalla Toscana fino alla Campania, si sono formati nel corso della storia geologica più recente dell’area mediterranea. I VULCANI ITALIANI DEL MARGINE TIRRENICO 4 a cura di Flavio Comandini Tra 1 milione di anni fa e qualche migliaio di anni fa l’area medio tirrenica è stata interessata da varie fasi di vulcanesimo. L’ultimo apparato a terminare (forse!) la sua attività è quello del Vulcano Laziale. I DISTRETTI VULCANICI LAZIALI 5 a cura di Flavio Comandini Intorno a 30 milioni di anni fa, un piccolo continente, formato dai territori delle future isole di Corsica, Sardegna, Sicilia e parte della penisola italiana, staccandosi dal resto della zolla europea che ora corrisponde a Francia e Spagna, si spostava verso Est. LA FORMAZIONE DELL’ITALIA 6 a cura di Flavio Comandini Intorno a 10 milioni di anni fa, anche questo piccolo continente cominciò fratturarsi e il pezzo più orientale ruotò lentamente verso Est, abbozzando la forma della penisola italiana.

    Ipogea n. 4 (2005): pp. 53 - 64 GIULIO CAPPA, ALBERTA FELICI, EMANUELE CAPPA SOME PECULIAR FEATURES OF KARST DEVELOPMENT IN LATIUM DURING THE QUATERNARY Abstract CAPPA G., FELICI A. & CAPPA E. - Some peculiar features of karst development in latium during the qua ter nary - Alcuni aspetti particolari dello sviluppo dei fenomeni carsici nel lazio durante il quaternario – Ipogea, 4: 53-64. The development of karstic phenomena in Latium is fairly recent: the traces of any appreciable evolution older than the begin- ning of Quaternary are scanty. Yet, there is evidence of peculiar features which mark this region, depending on other three factors that have infl uenced the karst evolution, they have been identifi ed during these last years and are the subject of this note. The most remarkable and widely spaced phenomenon is a consequence of the superimposition of volcanic ash deposits onto calcareous massifs, at a time when their karst was already well developed; the pyroclastites went up to a thickness of a few metres, concentrated in the hollows and stopped many hypogean water fl ows. After several ten thousands years the surface ablation and the percolation reactivate such karstic networks, some times by sudden and catastrophic collapses. A second feature is related to karst hypogean very fast development in pleistocenic conglomerates, owing to the sudden uplift of one of such units. The third one is a consequence of the formation during Pleistocene and even Holocene of large and thin units of travertines in several parts of the region, laying both upon calcareous and volcanic rocks; the authors have particularly investigated them along the river Aniene valley.

Newts are considered opportunistic feeders that may co-occur in different syntopic conditions and represent an excellent model for studying the role of individual feeding specialization in shaping the population dietary strategy. Here, we investigated the diet of three newt species from central Italy occurring in artificial habitats in different coexistence conditions to test the predictions of the niche width (NW) variation hypotheses. Population NW did not vary among species and between presence and absence of coexisting species. An overall positive relationship between individual specialization and population NW was observed. However, this pattern was disrupted by the condition of syntopy with newt populations showing an individual NW variation invariant with population NW in presence of coexisting species, whereas it was larger in populations occurring alone.

  • Structural Monitoring of the Ninfeo Ponari by Fibre Optic Sensors, Photogrammetry and Laser Scanning
    Archeologia e Calcolatori 31.2, 2020, 223-232 doi 10.19282/ac.31.2.2020.21 STRUCTURAL MONITORING OF THE NINFEO PONARI BY FIBRE OPTIC SENSORS, PHOTOGRAMMETRY AND LASER SCANNING 1. Introduction The Ninfeo Ponari is a Roman building located on the slope of the hill of Montecassino, along the road leading to the famous Benedictine Abbey, within the area of the ancient Roman town of Casinum (modern Cassino, Frosinone province, Latium, Italy). It is located within the perimeter of the Natural Monument of Montecassino, entrusted to the Regional Natural Park of the Aurunci Mountains. Until a few decades ago, the parcel of land was owned by the illustrious Cassino family to whom the Ninfeo owes its name. In 1996 it was donated to the University of Cassino. The building is part of a larger complex, still buried. It consists of a vaulted room (tablinum, oecus) fully opened on one side into a space (atrium) with two opposite side walls only and no ceiling, with a shallow pool in the centre (impluvium); both are richly decorated with wall paintings and floor mosaics. Other parts of the building have been detected, but only partially unearthed and not yet properly analysed. The construction technique is the ancient Roman concrete masonry covered with plaster. The vaulted room is about 4.63×7.43 m2 and reaches a height of approx. 4.58 m up to the top of the vault; the atrium is about 6.35×7.55 m2 and preserves the side walls up to a height of approx. 3.50 m.

  • Lazio (Latium) Is a Region of Traditions, Culture and Flavours
    Lazio (Latium) is a Region of traditions, culture and flavours. A land that knows how to delight the visitor at any time of the year, thanks to its kaleidoscope of landscape and stunning scenery, ranging from the sea to the mountains, united by a common de- nominator: beauty. The beauty you will find, beside the Eternal City, in Tuscia, Sabina, Aniene and Tiber Valley and along the Ro- man Hills, without forgetting the Prenestine and Lepini mountains, the Ciociaria and the Riviera of Ulysses and Aeneas coasts with the Pontine islands. The main City is, obvi- ously Rome, the Eternal City, with its 28 hundred years, so reach of history and cul- ture, but, before the rise of Rome as a mili- tary and cultural power, the Region was already called Latium by its inhabitants. Starting from the north west there are three distinct mountain ranges, the Volsini, the Cimini and the Sabatini, whose volcanic origin can be evinced by the presence of large lakes, like Bolsena, Vico and Bracciano lake, and, the Alban Hills, with the lakes of Albano and Nemi, sharing the same volcanic origins. A treasure chest concealing a profu- sion of art and culture, genuine local prod- ucts, delicious foods and wine and countless marvels. Rome the Eternal City, erected upon seven hills on April 21st 753 BC (the date is sym- bolic) according to the myth by Romulus (story of Romulus and Remus, twins who were suckled by a she-wolf as infants in the 8th century BC. ) After the legendary foundation by Romulus,[23] Rome was ruled for a period of 244 years by a monarchical system, ini- tially with sovereigns of Latin and Sabine origin, later by Etruscan kings.
