Nomenclature ofSoldanellaL. (Primulaceae)
2004
Following a revision of Soldanella, we here synonymize 109 non-hybrid names of this genus. We also lectotypify or neotypify 17 names of Soldanella. These are S. alpina L., S. alpina F. W. Schmidt, S. alpina L. var. carestiae Cristofolini et Pignatti, S. alpina L. f. major Cristofolini et Pignatti, S. austriaca Vierh., S. carpatica Vierh., S. marmarossiensis Kldst., S. minima Hoppe, S. minima Hoppe subsp. samnitica Cristofolini et Pignatti, S. minima Hoppe f. latifolia Cristofolini et Pignatti, S. montana Mikan, S. montana Willd., S. montana Willd. subsp. faceta Kress, S. occidentalis Vierh., S. pusilla Baumg., S. pusilla Baumg. f. calcicola Vierh., and S. pusilla Baumg. var. chrysosplenifol…
Productidinid brachiopods (Strophomenata, Productida), including Martinezchaconia luisae, new genus and new species of Linoproductidae, from the Carb…
2018
We describe three brachiopod species of the Suborder Productidina from the Ixtaltepec Formation, Carboniferous of the north of Oaxaca State, southern Mexico, found in peri-reef deposits. Stegacanthia bowsheri and Undaria sp. are members of the families Sentosiidae and Monticuliferidae respectively and were found in strata of the Visean (Middle Mississippian). Martinezchaconia luisae, new genus and species of the Family Linoproductidae, was recollected in Bashkirian-Moscovian (Lower-Middle Pennsylvanian) strata. The respective ages are inferred from the index species of brachiopods associated with the productidines herein described.
Unirationality of Hurwitz spaces of coverings of degree <= 5
2011
Let $Y$ be a smooth, projective curve of genus $g\geq 1$ over the complex numbers. Let $H^0_{d,A}(Y)$ be the Hurwitz space which parametrizes coverings $p:X \to Y$ of degree $d$, simply branched in $n=2e$ points, with monodromy group equal to $S_d$, and $det(p_{*}O_X/O_Y)$ isomorphic to a fixed line bundle $A^{-1}$ of degree $-e$. We prove that, when $d=3, 4$ or $5$ and $n$ is sufficiently large (precise bounds are given), these Hurwitz spaces are unirational. If in addition $(e,2)=1$ (when $d=3$), $(e,6)=1$ (when $d=4$) and $(e,10)=1$ (when $d=5$), then these Hurwitz spaces are rational.
Orthotrichum mazimpakanum sp. nov. and O. anodon (Orthotrichaceae), two similar species from California
2011
Abstract Studies of herbarium samples and field surveys in Southern California during the fall of 2008 led to the discovery of several new collections of mosses lacking exostome teeth belonging to Orthotrichum Hedw. subgenus Pulchella (Schimp.) Vitt. Some of them are ascribable to O. anodon F. Lara, Garilleti & Mazimpaka even though they display a set of characters not noticed before, considerably broadening the morphological variability of this species and making necessary an updated description. Other materials, from scattered localities along a wide latitudinal range, correspond to a here described new species, Orthotrichum mazimpakanum Garilleti & F. Lara, differentiated by a set of una…
Orthotrichum anodon (Orthotrichaceae), a new species from California, and its relationships to otherOrthotrichawith puckered capsule mouths
2006
A new Orthotrichum species, O. anodon F. Lara, Garilleti & Mazimpaka, is described. The new taxon is included in subgenus Pulchella (Schimp.) Vitt, and is characterised by its immersed, cylindrical capsules, with eight short exothecial bands that constrict the capsule mouth when dry; the lack of exostome teeth; the endostome having 16 hyaline and papillose segments; and the leaves lingulate to ovate lanceolate, with obtuse apices. Its distinction from and relationships with similar species within the genus, are discussed.
Observaciones sobre los dinoflagelados (Pyrrhophyta) de las costas de Castellón (España)
1991
espanolEn este trabajo se presentan 27 especies de dinoflagelados (Pyrrhophyta), procedentes de muestreos realizados durante el otono de 1989, en la zona neritica del Mediterraneo frente al puerto de Castellon (U.T.M. 31S BE451293). Se comentan algunas caracteristicas morfometricas de especies pertenecientes a los generos: Prorocentrum, Amphisolenia, Dinophisis,Ornithocercus, Peridinium,Ceratocorys y Ceratium. La especie Dinophisis schuetti Murray et Whitting, 1899, se cita por primera vez para esta costa. EnglishIn the present work, 27 species of dinoflagellates (Pyrrhophyta) were determinated. The samples were taken in the 1989 autumn in the Mediterranean neritic zone near the harbour of …
On the birational geometry of the universal Picard variety
2010
We compute the Kodaira dimension of the universal Picard variety P_{d,g} parameterizing line bundles of degree d on curves of genus g under the assumption that (d-g+1,2g-2)=1. We also give partial results for arbitrary degrees d and we investigate for which degrees the universal Picard varieties are birational.
On the Rational Cohomology of Moduli Spaces of Curves with Level Structures
2009
We investigate low degree rational cohomology groups of smooth compactifications of moduli spaces of curves with level structures. In particular, we determine $H^k(\sgbar, \Q)$ for $g \ge 2$ and $k \le 3$, where $\sgbar$ denotes the moduli space of spin curves of genus $g$.
Chern classes of the moduli stack of curves
2005
Here we calculate the Chern classes of ${\bar {\mathcal M}}_{g,n}$, the moduli stack of stable n-pointed curves. In particular, we prove that such classes lie in the tautological ring.
