BALEEN whales ,MITOCHONDRIAL DNA ,BLUE whale ,WHALING ,WHALES ,GENETIC variation - Abstract
The 20th century commercial whaling industry severely reduced populations of great whales throughout the Southern Hemisphere. The effect of this exploitation on genetic diversity and population structure remains largely undescribed. Here, we compare pre- and post-whaling diversity of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region sequences for 3 great whales in the South Atlantic, such as the blue, humpback, and fin whale. Pre-whaling diversity is described from mtDNA extracted from bones collected near abandoned whaling stations, primarily from the South Atlantic island of South Georgia. These bones are known to represent the first stage of 20th century whaling and thus pre-whaling diversity of these populations. Post-whaling diversity is described from previously published studies reporting large-scale sampling of living whales in the Southern Hemisphere. Despite relatively high levels of surviving genetic diversity in the post-whaling populations, we found evidence of a probable loss of mtDNA lineages in all 3 species. This is evidenced by the detection of a large number of haplotypes found in the pre-whaling samples that are not present in the post-whaling samples. A rarefaction analysis further supports a loss of haplotypes in the South Atlantic humpback and Antarctic blue whale populations. The bones from former whaling stations in the South Atlantic represent a remarkable molecular archive for further investigation of the decline and ongoing recovery in the great whales of the Southern Hemisphere.

- Abstract
The short-finned pilot whale (SFPW), Globicephala macrorhynchus, has a pan-tropical and -temperate distribution. The existence of two morphologically and genetically distinct forms (Naisa and Shiho) suggests a complex speciation process, which remains to be deciphered. Here, we used whole genome data of 56 individuals from three poorly surveyed regions (Macaronesian islands - Eastern central Atlantic, China and Brazil) to assess the patterns of population structure and genetic diversity of the SFPW. We inferred population structure from admixture and principal component analyses. Additionally, we determined patterns of differentiation of the maternally-inherited mitogenomes. We estimated changes in population size through time using the Pairwise Sequentially Markovian Coalescent (PSMC) analysis. Finally, we searched for genomic regions of high differentiation in each assigned population using the population branch statistics and performed a windows-based analysis to uncover the top outliers of genetic differentiation, corresponding to regions that are potentially under selection. Our results provide evidence for three main genetic clusters of SPFW populations across the analysed individuals, emphasizing the genomic distinctiveness of Atlantic individuals compared with other individuals belonging to the Naisa form – known to be present in the western/central Pacific and Indian Oceans. The exception to this pattern is a Naisa mitochondrial and nuclear genotype found in one individual from Brazil. Moreover, PSMC suggests a shared recent evolutionary history in all three assigned populations. Our study provides a significant contribution to the overall understanding of the demographic history and spatial patterns of genetic diversity in SPFW, by complementing data previously described

Introduction: COVID-19 seems to induce ischemic stroke by several potential mechanisms including promoting hypercoagulability, and worse functional outcomes have been reported in patients with stroke and the infection with SARS-CoV-2. Objective: Determine the association between functional outcome and COVID-19 in patients with stroke. Patients and methods: We performed a case control study comparing patients admitted to a neurological reference center in Peru with a diagnosis of stroke before (controls) and after (cases) the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. There were 31 cases diagnosed with COVID-19 and 62 controls without COVID-19. Bivariate analysis and conditional fixed-effects Poisson regression analysis were used to evaluate the association between the functional outcome of the stroke and COVID-19. Results: Cases had higher baseline serum glucose (133.5, IQR: 117.5-174 versus 117, IQR: 101-130, p = 0.033) than controls, higher neutrophil counts (7.91, IQR: 5.93-9.57 versus 5.96, IQR: 4.41-7.79, p = 0.008), lower lymphocyte counts (1.48, IQR: 1.04-1.8 versus 1.83, IQR: 1.26-2.32, p = 0.025), higher neutrophil/lymphocyte ratios (5.44, IQR: 4.0-8.1 versus 3.29, IQR: 2.25-6.02, p = 0.011), higher NIH stroke scale/score (NIHSS) (14, IQR: 9-18 versus 7 IQR: 5-11, p = 0.000), and higher modified Rankin scores at discharge (4, IQR: 4-5 versus 2, IQR: 1-4), p = 0.001). Seven (21.88%) participants died in the group of cases versus 1 (1.56%) in the controls (p = 0.014). The odds ratio of having a bad functional outcome at discharge was 1.344 (CI: 1.079-4.039; p = 0.029), adjusted by NIHSS at admission. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that ischemic strokes associated with COVID-19 are more severe, have worse functional outcome and higher mortality than non-COVID-19 ischemic strokes. Introducción: El COVID-19 puede desencadenar un infarto cerebral por varios mecanismos potenciales, entre ellas, la hipercoagulabilidad. Se han reportado peores resultados funcionales en pacientes con infarto cerebral y COVID-19. Objetivo: Determinar la asociación entre resultado funcional y COVID-19 en pacientes con infarto cerebral isquémico. Pacientes y métodos: Se realizó un estudio de casos y controles comparando a pacientes ingresados a un centro de referencia neurológico en Perú con diagnóstico de infarto cerebral, antes (controles) y después (casos) del inicio de la pandemia por COVID-19. Hubo 31 casos diagnosticados con COVID-19 y 62 controles. Se utilizaron análisis bivariado y análisis de regresión de Poisson de efectos fijos condicionales. Resultados: Los casos tenían glucemia basal más alta (133,5, RIQ: 117,5-174 vs 117, RIQ: 101-130, p = 0,033) que los controles, recuentos de neutrófilos más altos (7,91, RIQ: 5,93-9,57 vs. 5,96, RIQ: 4,41-7,79, p = 0,008), menor recuento de linfocitos (1,48, RIQ: 1,04-1,8 frente a 1,83, RIQ: 1,26-2,32, p = 0,025), mayor relación neutrófilos/linfocitos (5,44, RIQ: 4,0-8,1 frente a 3,29, RIQ: 2,25-6,02, p = 0,011), mayor NIH scale/score (NIHSS) (14, RIQ: 9-18 vs. 7, RIQ: 5-11, p = 0,000) y mayores puntuaciones de Rankin modificadas al alta (4, RIQ: 4-5 vs. 2, RIQ: 1-4) p = 0,001). Siete (21,88%) participantes fallecieron en el grupo de casos vs. 1 (1,56%) en los controles (p = 0,014). La odds ratio de un mal resultado funcional al alta fue de 1,344 (IC: 1,079-4,039; p = 0,029), ajustada por NIHSS al ingreso. Conclusiones: Nuestros hallazgos sugieren que los infartos cerebrales asociados a COVID-19 son más graves, tienen un peor resultado funcional y una mayor mortalidad que los infartos cerebrales no relacionados a COVID-19.

AMEROTYPHLOPS MONTANUM SP. NOV. (FIG. 11; SUPPORTING INFORMATION, FIG. S4) Z o o b a n k r e g i s t r a t i o n: u r n: l s i d: z o o b a n k. org:act: BDB85DE5-C88C-4894-9197-60C3200FEC73 Holotype: An adult female, MZUSP 20065, (field number MTR 16379), collected by Augustín Camacho, José Cassimiro, Mauro Teixeira Jr., Miguel T. Rodrigues, Renata C. Amaro and Renato Recoder 6 March 2009 from Parque Nacional Serra das Lontras (15° 11 ′ 46.32 ′′ S, 39° 20 ′ 54.24 ′′ W; c. 234 m a.s.l.), municipality of Arataca, state of Bahia, Brazil (Fig. 11; Supporting Information, Fig. S4). Diagnosis: This species is distinguished from all other South American congeneric species by a unique combination of the following of characters: (1) nasal suture incomplete; (2) rostral scale oval; (3) supralabial scales four; (4) infralabial scales three; (5) rows scales around the body 20/20/18; (6) mid-dorsal scales 220; (7) ventral scales 217; (8) rows of dorsal scales dark brown 11; (9) rows of ventral scales yellowish cream and immaculate 7–9; (10) caudal spine dark brown; (11) subcaudal scales 11; (12) TTL 216 mm; (13) TL 5.32 mm; (14) contact between the nasal process of premaxilla and vertical laminae of the nasals restricted to the anterodorsal portion, with the central and posteroventral portions not in contact, leaving a large canal between the olfactory chambers; (15) smallsized palatine fossa on the lateral side of the maxilla; (16) maxilla with a straight medial border; (17) ventral pterygoid process of palatine straight; (18) ratio between length of ventral pterygoid process of palatine and skull length 0.06; (19) angle between mandibular condyle articulation and the retroarticular process of the compound bone close to 90°; and (20) dorsal surface of dentary bone without evident foramina. Amerotyphlops montanum differs from A. costaricensis, A. lehneri, A. microstomus, A. stadelmani, A. tasymicris, A. tenuis, A. trinitatus and A. tycherus by having an incomplete nasal suture (vs. complete nasal suture); from A. arenensis, A. caetanoi, A. amoipira, A. minuisquamus, A. paucisquamus and A. yonenagae by having20/20/18rowsscalesaroundthebody (vs.18/16/14, 18/18/14, 20/18/14 or 20/18/ 15 in A. minuisquamus and 18/18/ 18 in A. arenensis, A. caetanoi, A. amoipira, A. paucisquamus and A. yonenagae); from A. reticulatus by having highly pigmented cephalic scales with a dark brown dorsum and dorsum tail brown (vs. yellow and few pigmented cephalic scales, dorsum brown or black and dorsum tail black with cream or yellow spot); and from A. brongermianus by having a larger interorbital relative width (INORB/HWE) 0.725 mm (vs. smaller interorbital relative width, between 0.526 –0.705 mm). Table 1 shows additional morphometric characters and scale patterns found in A. montanum and in a morphologically similar species distributed in southeastern Brazil (A. brongermianus). Description of the holotype: Adult female, TTL 216 mm, TL 5.32 mm, MBD/(SVL-HR) 0.034 mm and TL/SVL 39.60 mm. Head slightly depressed dorsoventrally, not wider than ‘neck’. Snout round in dorsal and ventral views. Rostral oval, longer than wide, narrow at anteroposterior region and wider at medial region; visible in dorsal view, extending ventrodorsally without reaching the imaginary transverse line between anterior borders of eyes. Rostral contacting nasal (anterior and posterior) dorsolaterally, and first supralabial and anterior nasal scales ventrally. Nasal suture incomplete, only partially dividing the anterior and posterior portions of nasal scale. Suture begins in the upper edge of second supralabial, passes through nostril, but fails to reach rostral. Anterior nasal in contact with first infralabial and upper edge of second infralabial. Posterior nasal longer than wide, contacting upper margin of second supralabial and preocular. Supralabials four, fourth twice longer than third. Infralabials three, third largest. Eye diameter 1.03 mm; eyes not visible in ventral view, located dorsolaterally, close to suture between preocular and ocular scales, completely covered by ocular scale. Ocular scales contacting frontal. Body cylindrical and robust. Midbody diameter 7.12 mm. Dorsal and ventral scales cycloid, wider than long, highly imbricated and arranged in diagonal series; scale rows around the body 20/20/18. Mid-dorsal scales 220. Ventral scales 217. Cloacal plate rounded, bordered anteriorly by four rows of scales and posteriorly by five rows of scales. Subcaudal scales 11, excluding the terminal spine. Terminal spine large, stout base and dark brown. Skull osteology ( N = 1; MZUSP 20065): The length of the skull is 8.08 mm and the width is 4.14 mm. The snout region has a globular enlarged-shape and highly consolidated. The snout articulates with the braincase by the nasal and prefrontal sutures and with the frontal bone. The anteroventral region of the premaxilla has a short backward process.The midsagittal lamina separates both sides of the premaxilla (Fig. 5). The lamina of the premaxilla is confluent with the mid-dorsal laminae of the nasals and with the mid-dorsal ridges of the vomeronasal cupola of the septomaxillae (Fig. 5). The lamina of the premaxilla and the nasal laminae are restricted to the anterodorsal portion, with the central and posteroventral portions not in contact, leaving a large canal between the olfactory chambers (Fig. 5A). The medial side of the maxilla has a shallow depression (or fossa), where lodges the maxillary process of the palatine. The palatine fossa is on the lateral side of the maxilla, in the region of the articular fossa. The palatine fossa is small, with a diameter of 0.17 mm long (Fig. 5B). The medial border of the maxilla is straight (Fig. 6B). The ventral pterygoid process of the palatine is straight-shaped and ventrally directed (Fig. 7A). The retroarticular process projects in parallel to the horizontal plane of the articular. The angle between mandibular condyle articulation and the retroarticular process of the compound bone is close to 90° (Fig. 8A). The edentulous dentary is restricted to the distal end of the mandible, articulating mainly with the splenial. The dorsal side of the dentary is flat and without evident foramina (Fig. 9B). Coloration of the holotype in preserƲatiƲe: Dorsum (11/11/11 rows scales) dark brown, venter (9/9/7 rows scales) yellowish cream (Supporting Information, Fig. S4A, B). Dorsal portions of snout yellowish cream, with a dark brown spot, covering totally both rostral and nasal scales (Fig. 11A, B). Ventral portion of snout yellowish cream and few pigmented (Fig. 11C). Symphysial region yellowish cream and immaculate (Fig. 11C). Dorsal head scales (supraoculars, frontal, postfrontal, parietals and occipitals) and dorsal portions of lateral head scales (ocular, nasal and lower nasal) predominantly dark brown (Fig. 11A, B). Ventral portion of head scales (nasal and lower nasal) yellowish cream (Fig. 11A, C). Cloacal plate pale yellowish cream and terminal spine dark brown (Supporting Information, Fig. S4B). Etymology: The specific epithet is derived from the neutral form of Latin adjective ‘ montanus ’. It is a reference to the type locality, a high elevational forest, located on the slopes of a hill summit in the Brazilian state of Bahia. Distribution and habitat: Amerotyphlops montanum is known from the Parque Nacional Serra das Lontras, situated at 10 km from the municipality of Arataca, in state of Bahia, Brazil, and from Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural Serra do Teimoso, situated at 5 km from the municipality of Jussari, in state of Bahia, Brazil (Fig. 10B). These regions are known as part of the Serra das Lontras montane complex (Nacif et al., 2009), belonging to the Atlantic Forest morphoclimatic domain, in the Bahia Coastal forest ecoregion (Olson et al., 2001). The prevalent phytophysiognomy correspond to ombrophilous dense and semi-deciduous forests (Veloso et al., 1991;Amorim & epiphytes, with a well-established and preserved understory. The forest changes dramatically above 800 m, presenting stunted trees (10–15 m tall), covered with small bromeliads, heavy bryophyte and lichen growth (Veloso et al., 1991; Amorim & Matos, 2009; Reis & Fontoura, 2009). Additional data on the habitat of Serra das Lontras and Serra do Teimoso are, respectively, in Recoder et al. (2010) and Rodrigues et al. (2002). Remarks: In our phylogenetic analysis we included a sample from a specimen from the Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural Serra do Teimoso, from the municipality of Jussari, in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Unfortunately, we did not have access to review this specimen, but we have recognized its molecular relationships with A. montanum. The tissue sample is currently stored in the genetic resource collection of Instituto de Biociências da Universidade de São Paulo University (see Supporting Information, Table S2)., Published as part of Graboski, Roberta, Arredondo, Juan C., Grazziotin, Felipe G., Guerra-Fuentes, Ricardo Arturo, Da Silva, Ariane A.

AMEROTYPHLOPS CAETANOI SP. NOV. (FIG. 4; SUPPORTING INFORMATION, FIG. S3) Z o o b a n k r e g i s t r a t i o n: L S I D u r n:l s i d:z o o b a n k. org:act: BA5C7CBF-7391-4797-8CEC-DF201B294A73 Holotype: An adult female, MZUSP S-023380, (field number MTR 19921), collected by Ana C. Q. Carnaval, José C. Silva, Marco A. Sena, Mauro Teixeira Jr., Miguel T. Rodrigues, Renata C. Amaro and Renato Recoder on 15 December 2010 from Parque Nacional da Chapada Diamantina, on BR 144 Road, municipality Lençóis (12° 32 ′ 44.682 ′′ S, 41° 21 ′ 50.364 ′′ W; c. 493 m a.s.l.), state of Bahia, Brazil (Fig. 4; Supporting Information, Fig. S3). Diagnosis: This species is distinguished from all other congeneric species by the unique combination of the following of characters: (1) nasal suture incomplete; (2) rostral scale oval; (3) supralabial scales four; (4) infralabial scales three; (5) rows scales around the body 18/18/18; (6) mid-dorsal scales 212; (7) ventral scales 202; (8) rows of dorsal scales dark brown 13; (9) rows of ventral scales yellowish cream and immaculate 5; (10) caudal spine dark brown; (11) subcaudal scales 9; (12) TTL 176 mm; (13) TL 4.33 mm; (14) broad contact between the lamina of the premaxilla and the vertical laminae of the nasals, forming a continuous bony septum separating the olfactory chambers; (15) large palatine fossa on the lateral side of the maxilla; (16) maxilla with a straight medial border; (17) ventral pterygoid process of palatine straight; (18) ratio between length of ventral pterygoid process of palatine and skull length 0.25; (19) angle between mandibular condyle articulation and the retroarticular process of the compound bone close to 90°; and (20) dorsal surface of dentary bone with two evident foramina. The new species differs from Amerotyphlops costaricensis, A. lehneri, A. microstomus, A. stadelmani, A. tasymicris, A. tenuis, A. trinitatus and A. tycherus, by having an incomplete nasal suture (vs. complete nasal suture); from A. brongersmianus, A. reticulatus and A. minuisquamus by having 18/18/18 rows scales around the body (vs. 18/16/14, 18/18/14, 20/18/14 or 20/18/ 15 in A. minuisquamus; 20/20/18 or 20/20/ 20 in A. brongersmianus and A. reticulatus); from A. brongersmianus by having an angle close to 90° between mandibular condyle articulation and the retroarticular process of the compound bone (vs. an angle of 135°); from A. yonenagae by having less than 250 mid-dorsal scales (vs. more than 250 mid-dorsal); from A. amoipira by having highly pigmented cephalic scales with a dark brown dorsum (vs. few pigmented cephalic scales, creamy brown dorsum with a fine darker brown paravertebral line concentrated in the anterior part of the body); from A. paucisquamus by having a largest number of mid-dorsal, 212 (vs. fewer number of mid-dorsal, between 162 and 209); and from A. arenensis by having a smaller rostral width (RW1) at dorsal portion, 1.29 mm (vs. larger rostral width at dorsal portion (RW1), between 1.44 and 2.13 mm). Table 1 shows additional morphometric characters and scale patterns found in A. caetanoi and morphologically similar species distributed in southern and north-eastern Brazil. Description of the holotype: Adult female, TTL 176 mm, TL 4.33 mm, MBD/(SVL-HR) 0.036 mm, and TL/SVL 39.72 mm. Head slightly depressed dorsoventrally, not wider than ‘neck’. Snout round in dorsal and ventral views. Rostral oval, longer than wide, narrow at anteroposterior region and wider at medial region; visible in dorsal view, extending ventrodorsally without reaching the imaginary transverse line between anterior borders of eyes. Rostral contacting nasal (anterior and posterior) dorsolaterally, and first supralabial and anterior nasal scales ventrally. Nasal suture incomplete, only partially dividing the anterior and posterior portions of nasal scale. Suture begins in the upper edge of second supralabial, passes through nostril, but fails to reach rostral. Anterior nasal in contact with first infralabial and upper edge of second infralabial. Posterior nasal longer than wide, contacting upper margin of second supralabial and preocular. Supralabials four, fourth twice longer than third. Infralabials three, third largest. Eye diameter 0.56 mm; eyes not visible in ventral view, located dorsolaterally, close to suture between preocular and ocular scales, completely covered by ocular scale. Ocular scales contacting frontal. Body cylindrical and robust. Midbody diameter 6.21 mm. Dorsal and ventral scales cycloid, wider than long, highly imbricated and arranged in diagonal series; scale rows around the body 18/18/18. Mid-dorsal scales 212. Ventral scales 202. Cloacal plate rounded, bordered anteriorly by four rows of scales and posteriorly by five rows of scales. Subcaudal scales nine, excluding the terminal spine. Terminal spine large, stout base and dark brown. Abbreviations: ED, eye diameter; HR, head radius; HWE, head width; IN, internasal distance; INORB, interorbital distance; RL, rostral length; RW1, rostral width; MBD, midbody diameter. Skull osteology ( N = 1; MZUSP S-023380): The length of the skull is 6.15 mm, the width is 2.92 mm. The snout region has a globular enlarged-shape and highly consolidated. The snout articulates with the braincase by the nasal and prefrontal sutures and with the frontal bone. The anteroventral region of the premaxilla has a short backward process. The midsagittal lamina separates both sides of the premaxilla (Fig. 5). The lamina of the premaxilla is confluent with the mid-dorsal laminae of the nasals and with the mid-dorsal ridges of the vomeronasal cupola of the septomaxillae (Fig. 5). The lamina of the premaxilla and the nasal laminae are in contact, forming a continuous bony septum separating the olfactory chambers (Fig. 5B). The medial side of the maxilla has a shallow depression (or fossa), where lodges the maxillary process of the palatine. The palatine fossa is on the lateral side of the maxilla, in the region of the articular fossa. The palatine fossa is large with a diameter of 0.25 mm long (Fig. 6A). The medial border of the maxilla is straight (Fig. 6A). The ventral pterygoid process of the palatine is straight and ventrally directed (Fig. 7A). The retroarticular process projects in parallel to the horizontal plane of the articular. The angle between mandibular condyle articulation and the retroarticular process of the compound bone is close to 90° (Fig. 8A). The edentulous dentary is restricted to the distal end of the mandible, articulating mainly with the splenial. The dorsal side of the dentary is flat and pierced by two foramina (Fig. 9A). Coloration of the holotype in preserƲatiƲe: Dorsum (13/13/13 row scales) dark brown (Supporting Information, Fig. S3A), venter (5/5/5 rows scales) yellowish cream (Supporting Information, Fig. S3B). Dorsal portions of snout yellowish cream, with a dark brown spot, covering both rostral and nasal scales (two-thirds of snout) (Fig. 4A, B). Ventral portions of snout yellowish cream and few pigmented (Fig. 4C). Symphysial region yellowish cream and immaculate (Fig. 4C). Dorsal head scales (supraoculars, frontal, postfrontal, parietals and occipitals) dark brown. Dorsal portions of lateral head scales (ocular, nasal and lower nasal) and ventral portions yellowish cream with dark brown spots. Cloacal plate pale yellowish cream and terminal spine dark brown (Fig. 4A–C). Etymology: The name is a homage to Brazilian composer, singer and political activist Caetano Emanuel Viana Telles Veloso, better known as Caetano Veloso. Caetano is one of the most famous Brazilians born in the state of Bahia (in 1942), the same state in which the new species occurs. He became known for his participation in the Brazilian musical movement ‘ Tropicalismo ’ that encompassed theatre, poetry and music in the 1960s, at the beginning of the Brazilian military dictatorship. Veloso is also a well-known conservationist, acting to give voice to the preservation of the Brazilian natural environments and to indigenous resilience. Distribution and habitat: Amerotyphlops caetanoi is known only from Parque Nacional da Chapada Diamantina, in the BR 144 Road, situated at 2 km from the municipality of Lençóis, state of Bahia, Brazil (Fig. 10B). This region is one of the largest upland Atlantic dry forest enclaves of the east-central Bahia state (Veloso et al., 1991). The phytophysiognomy corresponds to a submontane seasonal semi-deciduous forest (Couto et al., 2011; Braz et al., 2013), ranging from 400 to 600 m a.s.l., with an annual average of temperature and rainfall of 20 °C and 100 mm, respectively (Funch et al., 2009). This area presents a non-continuous canopy, consisting of tall trees (approximately 10–16 m), and a subcanopy, consisting of medium-height trees (approximately 6–9 m), with a well-established and preserved understory (Couto et al., 2011).

The snout region has a globular enlarged-shape and highly consolidated. The snout articulates with the braincase by the nasal and prefrontal sutures and with the frontal bone. The anteroventral region of the premaxilla has a short backward process. The midsagittal lamina separates both sides of the premaxilla (Fig. 5). The lamina of the premaxilla is confluent with the mid-dorsal laminae of the nasals and with the mid-dorsal ridges of the vomeronasal cupola of the septomaxillae (Fig. 5). The nasal process of premaxilla contacting the vertical laminae of the nasals in the anterodorsal and posteroventral portions, with the central portion not in contact, leaving a large round canal between the olfactory chambers (Fig. 5A). The medial side of the maxilla has a shallow depression (or fossa), where lodges the maxillary process of the palatine. The palatine fossa is on the lateral side of the maxilla, in the region of the articular fossa. The palatine fossa is large (Fig. 6A), with diameters between 0.24 and 0.29 mm long. The medial border of the maxilla is straight-shaped (Fig. 6A). The pterygoid process of the palatine is straight-shaped and ventrally directed (Fig. 7A).

The colour patterns of the paratypes are similar to that found in the holotype (Supporting Information, Fig. S8A–D). Etymology: The specific epithet is derived from the Latin adjective illusorius, illusory or ironic, in reference to the external morphology that challenges its identification when compared to Amerotyphlops brongersmianus. Distribution and habitat: Amerotyphlops illusorium is known from Fazenda Nova Alegria, situated at 6 km from the municipality of Trancoso, in the state of Bahia, Brazil (Fig. 10B). This region is considered as part of the Atlantic Forest morphoclimatic domain, in the Bahia Coastal forest ecoregion, along the northeastern coast of Brazil (Olson et al., 2001) The prevalent phytophysiognomy in Trancoso presenting a restinga and ombrophilous dense lowland forests (Veloso et al., 1991; Rizzini, 1997; Assis et al., 2011), with an elevational gradient ranging from sea level to 50 m a.s.l., with an annual average of temperature of 24.4 °C and rainfall between 1300 and 1600 mm, respectively (Veloso et al., 1991; Rizzini, 1997; Assis et al., 2011; Santos, 2013). This region has several different levels of successional vegetation, with areas close to the sandplain with herbaceous, shrubs and arboreous forest and areas at the beginning of piedmont, with lowland forests, with medium height trees (approximately 20 m), with epiphytes and herbaceous understory (Santos, 2013)., Published as part of Graboski, Roberta, Arredondo, Juan C., Grazziotin, Felipe G., Guerra-Fuentes, Ricardo Arturo, Da Silva, Ariane A.

Morphological stasis is generally associated with relative constancy in ecological pressures throughout time, producing strong stabilizing selection that retains similar shared morphology. Although climate and vegetation are commonly the main key factors driving diversity and phenotypic diversification in terrestrial vertebrates, fossorial organisms have their morphology mostly defined by their fossorial lifestyle. Among these secretive fossorial organisms, blind snakes of the South American genus Amerotyphlops are considered poorly studied when compared to other taxa. Here, we evaluate the cryptic diversity of Amerotyphlops using phylogenetic and multivariate approaches. We based our phylogenetic analysis on a molecular dataset composed of 12 gene fragments (eight nuclear and four mitochondrial) for 109 species of Typhlopidae. The multivariate analysis was implemented using 36 morphological variables for 377 specimens of Amerotyphlops. Additionally, we contrast our phylogenetic result with the morphological variation found in cranial, external and hemipenial traits. Our phylogenetic results recovered with strong support the following monophyletic groups within Amerotyphlops : (1) a clade formed by A. tasymicris and A. minuisquamus ; (2) a clade composed of A. reticulatus ; (3) a north-eastern Brazilian clade including A. yonenagae , A. arenensis , A. paucisquamus and A. amoipira ; and (4) a clade composed of A. brongersmianus and a complex of cryptic species. Based on these results we describe four new species of Amerotyphlops from north-eastern and south-eastern Brazil, which can be distinguished from the morphologically similar species, A. brongersmianus and A. arenensis.

Population genetic structure results from the interaction between historical events, current ecological conditions and life traits. The genetic structure and gene flow between populations are important to species dynamics, mainly for rare and endangered species that are more vulnerable to landscape changes and fragmentation. Here we evaluated the genetic diversity, population structure and gene exchange in Petunia bonjardinensis , P. reitzii and P. saxicola , three rare species endemic to subtropical highland grasslands in southern South America. We analysed the genetic diversity and structure considering historical events, such as founder effect and climate changes, and biological traits of each species. We also estimated the conservation status for these three species. We collected samples from all adult individuals and occurrence sites that could be found at the same flowering season and genotyped them for 13 nuclear microsatellite markers. Our results indicate that rarity is probably historical for these species, given that we found no genetic evidence for recent bottlenecks. Petunia bonjardinensis , with the largest occurrence area and population sizes, displayed the higher diversity indices. The other two showed lower genetic diversity and are geographically most restricted. Gene exchange among these species was low, although they share some ancestral genetic polymorphism. Historical migration, founder effects and Pleistocene climate cycles ae the main factors explaining genetic diversity, and this was also influenced by reproductive biology and recent habitat loss, whereas the landscape influences the structure. Based on IUCN criteria, the three species are endangered, and the main risk for their survival is probably anthropic activity in the occurrence area. We recommend an urgent programme for the preservation of these species in situ and ex situ. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Gene flow via seed or pollen dispersal is fundamental for establishing population diversity and structure of plants, especially in naturally fragmented environments. Petunia exserta (Solanaceae) is endemic to small shelters in rocky towers in the Brazilian Pampa grassland, an ancient and isolated region. The landscape is a long-term fragmented habitat, and ecological conditions inside the shelters constitute an inhospitable environment for other Petunia spp. which usually inhabit open and sunny grasslands. We aimed to evaluate the mating system and gene flow impact on genetic diversity and population structure in P. exserta throughout its geographical range. We used eight microsatellite markers to employ fine-scale genetic structure and paternity analyses in 15 populations, including 361 adults and 244 progeny. Our results showed that P. exserta has low genetic diversity and a homozygous excess compared with its congeners. We identified four genetic clusters that did not reflect the spatial population distribution and a strong genetic structure at the first spatial distance. Pollen and seed dispersal mainly occurred at short distances, and the species has a mixed mating system with high selfing levels. We did not observe recent population reduction, and most population clusters showed a small effective population size. The landscape micro-habitat features contribute to pollen flow that occurs mainly inside shelters through geitonogamy or biparental inbreeding. The self-compatible status of P. exserta and related lineages could be important in the colonization of a new environment for the genus. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Twenty-two years ago, Greenberg, Turner and Zegura (Curr. Anthropol. 27:477-495, 1986) suggested a multidisciplinary model for the human settlement of the New World. Since their synthesis, several studies based mainly on partial evidence such as skull morphology and molecular genetics have presented competing, apparently mutually exclusive, settlement hypotheses. These contradictory views are represented by the genetic-based Single Wave or Out of Beringia models and the cranial morphology-based Two Components/ Stocks model. Here, we present a geometric morphometric analysis of 576 late Pleistocene/early Holocene and modern skulls suggesting that the classical Paleoamerican and Mongoloid craniofacial patterns should be viewed as extremes of a continuous morphological variation. Our results also suggest that recent contact among Asian and American circumarctic populations took place during the Holocene. These results along with data from other fields are synthesized in a model for the settlement of the New World that considers, in an integrative and parsimonious way, evidence coming from genetics and physical anthropology. This model takes into account a founder population occupying Beringia during the last glaciation characterized by high craniofacial diversity, founder mtDNA and Y-chromosome lineages and some private autosomal alleles. After a Beringian population expansion, which could have occurred concomitant with their entry into America, more recent circumarctic gene flow would have enabled the dispersion of northeast Asian-derived characters and some particular genetic lineages from East Asia to America and vice versa.

This work reports the results of analyses of three complete mycoplasma genomes, a pathogenic (7448) and a nonpathogenic (J) strain of the swine pathogen Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae and a strain of the avian pathogen Mycoplasma synoviae; the genome sizes of the three strains were 920,079 bp, 897,405 bp, and 799,476 bp, respectively. These genomes were compared with other sequenced mycoplasma genomes reported in the literature to examine several aspects of mycoplasma evolution. Strain-specific regions, including integrative and conjugal elements, and genome rearrangements and alterations in adhesin sequences were observed in the M. hyopneumoniae strains, and all of these were potentially related to pathogenicity. Genomic comparisons revealed that reduction in genome size implied loss of redundant metabolic pathways, with maintenance of alternative routes in different species. Horizontal gene transfer was consistently observed between M. synoviae and Mycoplasma gallisepticum. Our analyses indicated a likely transfer event of hemagglutinin-coding DNA sequences from M. gallisepticum to M. synoviae.

A total of 1,159 mitochondrial DNA samples from two Mongolian, two Siberian, and 25 South Native American populations was surveyed for the presence of the C16278T mutation, frequently found in haplogroup X. Material from 25 carriers of that mutation was then sequenced for the hypervariable segment I (HVS-I) control region, and those that still were not classifiable in classical Amerindian haplogroups were further studied. The tests involved all the control region, as well as the presence of characteristic mutations in seven coding fragments, totalling 5,760 base pairs. The results indicate that haplogroup X is not present in these samples. Am J Phys Anthropol 127: 439-448, 2005. KEY WORDS mtDNA; haplogroup X; HVS-I; Amerindians

Phylogeny (Botany) -- Research ,Biological sciences - Abstract
Passiflora, a genus with more than 400 species, exhibits a high diversity of floral and vegetative structures and a complex taxonomy, which includes 23 subgenera and many sections and series. To better understand Passiflora's variability and interspecific relationships, the phylogeny of 61 species, classified in 11 of 23 suggested subgenera, was investigated. Three molecular markers were used, the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacers (nrITS), the plastid trnL-trnF spacer regions (~1000 bp), and the rps4 plastid gene (~570 bp). Three major clades were highly supported, independent of the marker and phylogenetic method used; one included the subgenera Distephana, Dysosmia, Dysosmioides, Passiflora, and Tacsonioides, a second, the subgenera Adopogyne, Decaloba, Murucuja, and Pseudomurucuja, and a third, the subgenus Astrophea. We call these the Passiflora, Decaloba, and Astrophea clades, respectively. The position of subgenus Deidamioides is undefined. The monophyly of Passiflora could not be statistically corroborated, and the relationships among the major clades and of these clades with the related genera remain unresolved. Our results indicate that a reevaluation of the monophyly of Passiflora and its infrageneric classification is necessary. Key words: ITS; Passiflora; Passifloraccae; phylogenetic analysis; rps4; trnL-trnF.
