The document provides information about geological and natural attractions in Bohol, Philippines. It describes the Chocolate Hills, a formation of over 1,200 cone-shaped hills that turn brown in the dry season. It also discusses the Philippine tarsier, a tiny primate with large eyes and thick fur that lives in Bohol's forests. Additionally, it shares details about the Loboc River, known for its cruises along floating restaurants, and caves like Hinagdanan Cave with stalactites and stalagmites.
The document discusses the natural resources of the Philippines. It details the country's abundant water resources such as rivers, lakes, and waterfalls that provide water power and are popular tourist destinations. It also describes the fertile land and forests that cover much of the country. Other natural resources discussed include mineral deposits such as nickel, iron, and copper, as well as fisheries and marine resources along its extensive coastline.
The document summarizes a study on the nesting ecology of Hilaire's Side-necked Turtle (Phrynops hilarii) in Brazil. Key findings include:
1) Nests were monitored in natural and artificial conditions, with incubation periods varying from 157-271 days naturally and 130-191 days artificially.
2) Hatching success was higher under artificial conditions, ranging from 50-100% compared to 43-75% naturally.
3) Nest temperatures averaged 24.2-27.3°C naturally and 18.8-28.6°C artificially, with hatchlings emerging larger under artificial incubation.
This document reports on several cases of anomalous scutation and morphology in turtles and lizards:
1) A three-toed box turtle with only one vertebral scute, representing an anomalous reduction.
2) A Brazilian slider turtle exhibiting kyphosis, or dorsal curvature of the carapace, representing the first reported case in this species.
3) Observations of predation including a centipede preying on a whiptail lizard, representing the first record of this predator-prey relationship, and a six-lined racer snake attempting to swallow a six-scaled tegu, providing a rare example of saurophagy in this genus of lizard.
Este documento descreve um estudo sobre quelônios no Parque Estadual Delta do Jacuí no Rio Grande do Sul. Foram encontradas quatro espécies de quelônios que ocupam diferentes tipos de hábitats no parque. A destruição e fragmentação de habitat, poluição e desinformação humana são as principais ameaças identificadas às espécies de quelônios no local.
This document summarizes a study of chelonian species in the Delta do Jacuí State Park in Brazil. Four chelonian species were found, including the Orbigny's slider turtle which made up 66% of captures. Species occupied different habitat types, from permanent wetlands to temporary and human-influenced areas. The main threats were determined to be habitat destruction, fragmentation, and pollution from human activities.
Liolaemus occipitalis is a small lizard found in coastal sand dunes in southern Brazil. The study examined the annual activity patterns of L. occipitalis over one year. It found that the lizard is active year-round but its daily and seasonal activity varies according to climate changes. Most activity occurred under sand (73%), followed by under vegetation (14%). Activity peaks in spring and summer occurred in the morning and afternoon, diminishing during hottest parts of the day. Thermoregulation, involving movement between sunlight and shade, is an important factor influencing the lizard's habitat use and activity patterns.

This study examined variation in the epidermal shields of the carapace and plastron in Trachemys dorbigni turtles from Brazil. Some individuals presented additional or divided epidermal shields, including supernumerary costal and vertebral shields. While variation in epidermal shield number is common in turtles, this study provides the first documentation of carapace scute pattern variation in T. dorbigni, with anomalies observed in 7.7-14.3% of individuals examined. Environmental factors during embryonic development may influence scute pattern variation in this species.
The thermal biology of the small sand lizard Liolaemus occipitalis was studied in coastal sand dunes in southern Brazil. L. occipitalis maintained an average body temperature of 30.89°C that varied seasonally and daily depending on microhabitat temperatures. The substrate temperature was the main source for thermoregulation, accounting for most of the variation in lizard body temperatures across seasons. L. occipitalis is a rock-dwelling, thigmothermic, and heliothermic species that regulates its temperature behaviorally based on microclimate conditions.
This document describes a new species of lizard, Liolaemus arambarensis, discovered in southern Brazil. The new species is compared to other members of the Liolaemus wiegmannii group. L. arambarensis is distinguished by its dorsal color pattern and some aspects of its scales. It exhibits sexual dimorphism and is omnivorous. The natural history, morphology, and karyotype of L. arambarensis are analyzed.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
