    Abstract Maria Agnès Ribera Garau (Palma, 1790-1861) era filla dun ric comerciant. La seva família ordí un pla per desheretar-la i fou obligada a entrar en un convent. En el claustre va adquirir una sòlida formació intel·lectual. Va poder abandonar la clausura gràcies al decret de secularitzacions de 1821, però amb el retorn de labsolutisme es veié obligada a exiliar-se a França. Didees liberals, va lluitar durant 12 anys perquè lEsglésia li anul·lés els seus vots. Es defensà davant el Vaticà fins que li fou reconeguda la seva llibertat per la Santa Seu. Daleshores ençà es dedicà a escriure i a protegir leducació de les dones

    Abstract Ecuador has a high diversity of orchids, but little is known about levels of genetic diversity for the great majority of species. Understanding how orchids might adapt to changes is crucial as deforestation and fragmentation of forest ecosystems threaten the survival of many epiphytic orchids that depend on other species, such as fungi and their host trees, for germination, growth, and establishment. Overcollection and the illegal trade are also major concerns for the survival of wild populations of orchids. Despite increasing awareness, effective interventions are often limited by a lack of data concerning the impacts that overexploitation might have. To fill this gap, we tested the effects of overcollection in the genetic diversity and structure of Masdevallia rosea, a narrow distributed epiphytic orchid historically collected in Ecuador, in comparison with the widely distributed Pleurothallis lilijae. Genotyping based on AFLPs showed reduced levels of diversity in wild populations but most especially in the overcollected, M. rosea. Overall, genetic admixture was high in P. lilijae segregating populations by altitude levels while fewer genetic groups were found in M. rosea. Genetic differentiation was low in both species. A spatial genetic structure was found in P. lilijae depending on altitude levels, while no spatial genetic structure was found in M. rosea. These results suggest different scenarios for the two species: while gene flow over long distance is possible in P. lilijae, the same seems to be unlikely in M. rosea possibly due to the low levels of individuals in the known populations. In situ and ex situ conservation strategies should be applied to protect the genetic pool in these epiphytic orchid species, and to promote the connectivity between wild populations. Adopting measures to reduce overexploitation and to understand the impacts of harvesting in wild populations are necessary to strengthen the legal trade of orchids.

    Abstract A single plant might be visited by many flower visitors but not all might act as pollinators. Legitimate pollinators might also differ considerably in their efficiency, limiting pollination success. Unsuitable climatic conditions such as rain also affect pollinator activity. However, in the evergreen rainforest there is no prolonged dry season and flowering occurs usually under rain. Here, we explore the dependence on pollinators and the efficiency of flower visitors for the fruiting success of 10 Andean rainforest orchids. All species were self-compatible but strictly pollinator-dependent. Overall, we found low levels of fruit set in control flowers while experimental geitonogamous and cross-pollinations increased fruit set, revealing extensive pollination limitation in all populations. Seed viability dropped considerably after self and geitonogamous pollinations suggesting the possibility of early-acting inbreeding depression. Even though we monitored flower visitors on an extensive survey, few visitors were seen in these species and even fewer acted as legitimate pollinators. Thus, even though orchid pollination might be extremely diversified, these results show that few visitors are pollinating these species, explaining the low levels of fruit set recorded in the area studied.

    Abstract We report the case of a 64-year-old male with significant cardiac comorbidities who reported three episodes of gastrointestinal bleeding. In the third episode, he presented massive hematemesis, anaemia and hypotension. Despite a standard upper endoscopy, a computed tomography (CT) showed an infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm and densification of the aortic fat cover. A primary aortoenteric fistula, with acute bleeding and haemodynamic instability, was assumed, and an emergent endovascular repair was performed. Subsequent CT scans and endoscopies demonstrated control of the enteric lesion. After five months, there was no evidence of infection or rebleeding.
