Abstract The present study aims to identify the impact generated by the information media, social networks and the media on Peruvian university students in the context of the COVID19 quarantine in Peru, and to know how it relates to the emotional state, and to the compliance with health recommendations. This retrospective correlational study collected information from 396 students from a Peruvian university, Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, through a virtual survey conducted during two weeks of the Peruvian quarantine (March 13 - May 13, 2021). The main results show that there is an association between the effects of the media and compliance with health recommendations. The most reassuring messages came from authorities such as the president of Peru, the university, and government text messages; as well as television; while the most disturbing messages were spread through social networks and other media. Furthermore, the findings show that university students mostly complied with the main recommendations of the Peruvian government and the WHO.

Resumen El presente estudio tiene como objetivo identificar el impacto que generan los medios de información, las redes sociales y los medios de comunicación en los estudiantes universitarios peruanos en el contexto de la cuarentena de COVID19 en Perú, y conocer cómo se relaciona con el estado emocional y el cumplimiento de las recomendaciones de salud. Este estudio correlacional retrospectivo recopiló información de 396 estudiantes de una universidad peruana, la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, a través de una encuesta virtual realizada durante dos semanas de la cuarentena peruana (del 13 de marzo al 13 de mayo del 2021). Los principales resultados muestran que existe una asociación entre los efectos de los medios y el cumplimiento de las recomendaciones sanitarias. Los mensajes más tranquilizadores vinieron de autoridades como el presidente del Perú, la universidad y los mensajes de texto del gobierno; así como de la televisión; mientras que los mensajes más inquietantes se difundieron a través de las redes sociales y los otros medios de comunicación. Además, los hallazgos muestran que los estudiantes universitarios cumplieron mayormente con las recomendaciones principales del gobierno peruano y de la OMS.

ABSTRACT The objective of this work is to compare the quality of life of precarious quarry and brick-kiln workers in the municipality of San Luis Potosí and artisanal mercury mining in Camargo, Querétaro. Field work and non-participatory observation were carried out. During the field research period in 2019-2020, a questionnaire was applied to a total of 118 workers. The data were organized and processed with the Excel program (Microsoft Office 365) and analyzed within the framework of environmental anthropology and everyday-life approaches. In both contexts, it was found that the workers present a high level of marginalization, chronic diseases, physical inactivity, alcohol and tobacco consumption, in addition to the lack of protective equipment. According to the activity performed, they suffer from different occupational hazards. Furthermore, they are not employed under a labor contract, and their families also participate in the work. The identified situations of occupational precariousness presented various diagnosed chronic degenerative comorbidities, lack of protective equipment to perform their activities, occupational hazards and little access to health services. Therefore, multidisciplinary efforts and approaches are required to assess, address and draw attention to their conditions, in order to prevent, intervene and transform labor precariousness into decent work.

RESUMEN Este objetivo de este trabajo es comparar la calidad de vida de los trabajos precarios de cantera y ladrillo del municipio de San Luis Potosí y minería artesanal de mercurio en Camargo, Querétaro. Se realizó trabajo de campo y observación no participativa. Durante el periodo de investigación de campo en 2019-2020 se aplicó un cuestionario a un total de 118 trabajadores. Los datos fueron organizados y tratados con el programa Excel (versión Microsoft Office 365) y analizados dentro del marco de los enfoques de la antropología ambiental y de la vida cotidiana. En ambos contextos, se encontró que los trabajadores presentan un nivel alto de marginación, enfermedades crónicas, inactividad física, consumo de alcohol y tabaco, además de que no cuentan con equipo de protección, de acuerdo con la ocupación, tienen diferentes riesgos laborales. Además, no cuentan con contrato laboral. Aunado a ello, la familia participa en las labores. Los escenarios de precariedad laboral identificados presentaron algunas comorbilidades crónico-degenerativas diagnosticadas, nulo equipo de protección para realizar sus actividades, riesgos laborales y poco acceso a servicios de salud. Por lo tanto, requieren de esfuerzos y abordajes multidisciplinarios que permitan evaluar, atender y visibilizar sus condiciones con la finalidad de prevenir, intervenir y transformar la precariedad laboral en trabajo decente.

Abstract Background Sepsis is an uncontrolled inflammatory response against a systemic infection that results in elevated mortality, mainly induced by bacterial products known as endotoxins, producing endotoxemia. Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is frequently observed in septic patients and is associated with organ failure and death. Sepsis activates endothelial cells (ECs), promoting a prothrombotic phenotype contributing to DIC. Ion channel mediated calcium permeability participates in coagulation. The transient reception potential melastatin 7 (TRPM7) non-selective divalent cation channel that also contains an α-kinase domain, which is permeable to divalent cations including Ca2+, regulates endotoxin-stimulated calcium permeability in ECs and is associated with increased mortality in septic patients. However, whether endothelial TRPM7 mediates endotoxemia-induced coagulation is not known. Therefore, our aim was to examine if TRPM7 mediates coagulation during endotoxemia. Results The results showed that TRPM7 regulated endotoxin-induced platelet and neutrophil adhesion to ECs, dependent on the TRPM7 ion channel activity and by the α-kinase function. Endotoxic animals showed that TRPM7 mediated neutrophil rolling on blood vessels and intravascular coagulation. TRPM7 mediated the increased expression of the adhesion proteins, von Willebrand factor (vWF), intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), and P-selectin, which were also mediated by the TRPM7 α-kinase function. Notably, endotoxin-induced expression of vWF, ICAM-1 and P-selectin were required for endotoxin-induced platelet and neutrophil adhesion to ECs. Endotoxemic rats showed increased endothelial TRPM7 expression associated with a procoagulant phenotype, liver and kidney dysfunction, increased death events and an increased relative risk of death. Interestingly, circulating ECs (CECs) from septic shock patients (SSPs) showed increased TRPM7 expression associated with increased DIC scores and decreased survival times. Additionally, SSPs with a high expression of TRPM7 in CECs showed increased mortality and relative risk of death. Notably, CECs from SSPs showed significant results from the AUROC analyses for predicting mortality in SSPs that were better than the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) and the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores. Conclusions Our study demonstrates that sepsis-induced DIC is mediated by TRPM7 in ECs. TRPM7 ion channel activity and α-kinase function are required by DIC-mediated sepsis-induced organ dysfunction and its expression are associated with increased mortality during sepsis. TRPM7 appears as a new prognostic biomarker to predict mortality associated to DIC in SSPs, and as a novel target for drug development against DIC during infectious inflammatory diseases.

ABSTRACT The relationship between climate variability and the small-scale fishery (SSF) of the Albuquerque Cays was studied from 2004 to 2018. The environmental variables analyzed were: sea surface temperature (SST), wind magnitude, and chlorophyll (Chl-α). The fishery is multi-species; 410 individuals were identified, belonging to 4 orders, 15 families, and 62 species, of which 38.7% are reef, 35.5% demersal, and 25.8% pelagic. The most dominant species were Caranx latus, Elagatis bipinnulata, Coryphaena hippurus, Lutjanus vivanus, Ocyurus chrysurus, Thunnus atlanticus, Sphyraena barracuda, Canthidermis sufflamen, Etelis oculatus, Acanthocybium solandri, Lutjanus jocu, Balistes vetula, Lutjanus buccanella, followed by Rhomboplites aurorubens and Mycteroperca bonaci. The pelagic species that contribute the most in biomass and commercial importance are S. barracuda, A. solandri, T. atlanticus, and E. bipinnulata, the most important due to their high market value. A significant correlation was found among SST, Chl-α, wind magnitude, and catch per unit effort (CPUE) anomalies. The highest CPUE values occurred in January, March, June and September were associated with the passage of cold fronts and hurricanes, giving way to new fishing opportunities and conservation of some resources.

ABSTRACT The objective of the article is the diagnosis of lubrication and lubricants management for fuel oil power plants at the West of Havana. It was based on the tool of the Center for Maintenance Engineering Studies to assess the status of such management, and was modified by consensus of experts. The tool made it possible to identify deficiencies in lubrication management and to develop strategies that contribute to increase the physical assets availability, as well as reducing the consumption of energy, lubricants and spare parts. This allows to obtain significant savings in the organization and reducing the negative impact on the environment. A group of deficiencies were identified, among which stand out for their negative impact, the lack of training in lubrication management issues, and inadequate storage of new oils and used oil management.

RESUMEN El objetivo del artículo es el diagnóstico de la gestión de la lubricación y los lubricantes de las centrales eléctricas fuel oíl del Oeste de La Habana. Se basó en la herramienta del Centro de Estudios de Ingeniería de Mantenimiento para evaluar el estado de dicha gestión, y se modificó mediante el consenso de expertos. La herramienta permitió identificar las deficiencias en la gestión de la lubricación y concebir estrategias que contribuyan al aumento de la disponibilidad de los activos físicos, así como, la disminución del consumo de energía, lubricantes y piezas de repuesto.

Se identificaron un grupo de deficiencias, entre las que se destacan por su impacto negativo, la falta de capacitación en los temas de la gestión de la lubricación, y un inadecuado almacenamiento de aceites nuevos y la gestión de aceite usado.

Resumen La osteomielitis (OM) es una complicación de las úlceras en pie diabético que habitualmente es subdiagnosticada y tratada en forma tardía e inadecuada. La demora en el tratamiento de estos pacientes aumenta el riesgo de amputación. En esta revisión, se analiza la bibliografía actual acerca del diagnóstico de OM y se realizan recomendaciones en base a la misma, y a las características de los pacientes, los insumos y las posibilidades en nuestro medio.

Abstract Diabetic foot osteomyelitis (OM) is a diabetic foot ulcer complication. Usually, it is misdiagnosed and the treatment is delayed and inadequate. Delaying the treatment of these patients rises the risk of amputation. In this revision, current bibliography about this topic is updated and clinical practice recommendations are done, based on the publications and adapted to the characteristics of our country.

ABSTRACT. Oceanographic fluctuations and changes in ocean productivity directly affect the abundance and distribution of prey species, which in turn, affect the population status of their predators. In order to have a better understanding of this predator-prey relationship, the aim of the present study was to analyze the diet of the South American Sea Lion Otaria flavescens (Shaw, 1800) in two rookeries of the San Matias Gulf, in northern Patagonia (Argentina). A total of 52 scat samples of O. flavescens were collected in the Promontorio Belén colony and 35 in Caleta de los Loros during the late spring of 2011. The analysis of the samples indicated that at both localities fish occurred in 100% of scats with prey remains, followed by cephalopods (32.3%) and crustaceans (21.4%). The fish Raneya brasiliensis (Kaup, 1856) constituted the main prey taxon, both in terms of occurrence and numerical abundance. The octopod Octopus tehuelchus (d’ Orbigny, 1834) and squids of the genus Doryteuthis constituted the dominant cephalopod prey. It is concluded that sea lions focused their foraging activity on those species of demersal and benthic habits, associated with coastal and shelf waters. Furthermore, this study reports for the first time the feeding habits of the South American Sea Lion colony of Promontorio Belén, second in population size of Río Negro province.

RESUMEN. Lobos marinos de un pelo sudamericanos Otaria flavescens ¿buenos indicadores de cambios espaciales y temporales relativos en la distribución y abundancia de los recursos marinos? Las fluctuaciones oceanográficas y los cambios en la productividad del océano afectan directamente a la abundancia y distribución de las especies presa, que a su vez afectan al estado de la población de sus predadores. Con el fin de tener una mejor comprensión de esta relación predador-presa, el objetivo del presente trabajo fue analizar la dieta del lobo marino de un pelo sudamericano Otaria flavescens (Shaw, 1800) en dos apostaderos del Golfo San Matias, en Patagonia norte (Argentina). Se colectaron un total de 52 muestras de fecas de O. flavescens en el apostadero de Promontorio Belén y 35 en Caleta de los Loros durante la primavera tardía de 2011. El análisis de las muestras indicó que en ambas localidades los peces ocurrieron en el 100% de las muestras con remanentes alimentarios, seguidos por cefalópodos (32.3%) y crustáceos (21.4%). El pez Raneya brasiliensis (Kaup, 1856) constituyó el principal taxón presa, tanto en términos de ocurrencia como de abundancia numérica. El octópodo Octopus tehuelchus (d’ Orbigny, 1834) y los calamares del género Doryteuthis constituyeron los cefalópodos presa dominantes. Se concluye que los lobos marinos centraron su actividad forrajera en aquellas especies de hábitos demersales y bentónicos, asociado a aguas costeras y de plataforma. Además, este estudio analiza por primera vez los hábitos alimenticios de la colonia de lobos marinos de un pelo sudamericanos en el apostadero de Promontorio Belén, segunda en tamaño poblacional de la provincia de Río Negro.

Abstract Objective: a quantification of dietary intakes of the micronutrients involved in the methylation-methionine cycle (choline, betaine, folate, vitamins B6 and B12) in a representative sample of pregnant women in Spain; assessment of intake adequacy to available official recommendations; and analysis of their main food sources. Material and methods: the median intake of each micronutrient was established using food consumption data reported in the National Dietary Survey of adults, the elderly, and pregnant women (ENALIA-2) (n = 133). For folate, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 intake, nutritional composition data from the Spanish Food Composition Tables were used, whereas for choline and betaine, which are not included in European food composition databases, the National Nutrient Database for Standard Reference of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) was considered. Intake adequacy was estimated in accordance with the recommendations of the main Spanish, European, and US guidelines. Results: mean daily intakes observed were 271.1 mg/day of choline; 142.5 mg/day of betaine; 182.8 µg/day of folate; 1.4 mg/day of vitamin B6; and 4.5 µg/day of vitamin B12. Intake adequacy levels were insufficient for choline (< 60.2 %) and folate (< 30.5 %); close to adequacy for vitamin B6 (> 71.6 %); and fully adequate only in the case of vitamin B12 (> 101.1 %). It is not possible to draw any conclusions regarding betaine intake in the absence of established recommendations. Main food sources included foods of animal origin for choline and vitamin B12 (71.8 % and 97.4 %, respectively); cereals and derivatives for betaine (85.3 %); vegetables (27.5 %) together with cereals and derivatives (18.6 %) for folate; and meats and derivatives (26.6 %) followed by vegetables (17.9 %) for vitamin B6. Conclusions: these findings are clearly indicative of the need to improve the intake and nutritional status of these components, which are of great nutritional interest for the health of pregnant women and, consequently, of their offspring. Consequent to the degree of adequacy observed, it seems necessary and urgent to employ not only dietary improvement strategies and the use of fortified foods, but also nutritional supplements with an individualized approach.

Resumen Objetivo: cuantificar las ingestas dietéticas de los micronutrientes implicados en el ciclo metilación-metionina (colina, betaína, folatos, vitaminas B6 y B12) en una muestra representativa de mujeres gestantes residentes en España; determinar la adecuación a las recomendaciones, y analizar sus principales fuentes alimentarias. Material y métodos: la determinación de la ingesta media se realizó a partir de los datos de consumo de los alimentos recogidos en la “Encuesta Nacional de Alimentación en población adulta, mayores y embarazadas” (ENALIA-2) (n = 133). Para el cálculo del aporte de folatos y de vitaminas B6 y B12 se emplearon los datos de composición nutricional recogidos en las “Tablas de Composición de Alimentos en España”, mientras que para la colina y la betaína, nutrientes no incluidos en las bases de datos de composición de alimentos en Europa, se empleó la “Base de Datos Nacional de Nutrientes para Referencia Estándar del Departamento de Agricultura de los Estados Unidos” (USDA). La adecuación de la ingesta se estimó de acuerdo con las recomendaciones de las principales guías españolas, europeas y estadounidenses. Resultados: las ingestas medias diarias observadas fueron de 271,1 mg/día de colina; 142,5 mg/día de betaína; 182,8 µg/día de folatos; 1,4 mg/día de vitamina B6; y 4,5 µg/día de vitamina B12. Los niveles de adecuación a las recomendaciones resultaron insuficientes para la colina (< 60,2 %) y los folatos (< 30,5 %); cercanos a la adecuación para la vitamina B6 (> 71,6 %); y plenamente adecuados únicamente en el caso de la vitamina B12 (> 101,1 %). No resulta posible extraer ninguna conclusión con respecto al aporte de betaína al no existir recomendaciones establecidas. Las principales fuentes alimentarias fueron: alimentos de origen animal para la colina y la vitamina B12 (71,8 % y 97,4 %, respectivamente); cereales y derivados para la betaína (85,3 %); verduras y hortalizas (27,5 %) junto a cereales y derivados (18,6 %) para los folatos; y carnes y derivados (26,6 %), seguidos de verduras y hortalizas (17,9 %) para la vitamina B6. Conclusiones: los resultados obtenidos son indicativos de la necesidad de mejorar la ingesta y el estado nutricional de estos componentes de gran interés para la salud de la mujer embarazada. Como consecuencia del grado de adecuación observado, parece necesario y urgente el empleo no solo de estrategias para mejorar la dieta y el uso de alimentos fortificados, sino también de suplementos nutricionales de manera personalizada.

ABSTRACT The freshwater prawn Macrobrachium acanthurus represents a valuable resource for fishermen's communities in Mexico, although the information of its culture conditions and nutrition is still scarce. Prebiotics are defined as non-digestible components that are metabolized by specific health-promoting bacteria in the host's digestive system, improving the health status and growth performance of cultured aquatic organisms. Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and mannan oligosaccharides (MOS) are among the most used prebiotics in aquaculture. The present work aimed to determine the effects of dietary FOS and MOS in the growth performance, immune responses, and sexual maturity of juvenile freshwater prawn Macrobrachium acanthurus. Juveniles (0.06 ± 0.001 g) were fed with diets supplemented with a 3 g kg−1 diet of commercial FOS and MOS for 80 days. At the end of the feeding trial, the following indices were calculated: weight gain, specific growth rate, and feed conversion efficiency, as well as superoxide dismutase and lysozyme activities in hepatopancreas tissue. The growth performance, survival, juveniles’ protein contents did no show significant differences among the groups. No differences were detected in superoxide dismutase and lysozyme activities among experimental groups. Around day 60 of the feeding trial, the females fed with the prebiotics maturated, and by the end of the trial, several of them were carrying eggs. It seems that prebiotics might have a role in sexual maturation, but further research is necessary to establish if prebiotics influences the early maturation of M. acanthurus.

Abstract Introduction: foot examination is essential in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). The correct evaluation of the foot in the patient who attends diabetes control is key to establish risk factors for the development of ulcers, detect injuries, take preventive measures, make an early referral and educate in foot care. Objectives: in this study, the feet of people with DM were examined during the Diabetic Foot Awareness and Prevention Campaign on November 1, 2019 in order to assess the presence of symptoms and signs related to neuropathy, peripheral vascular disease, prevalence of the same and know the risk. Materials and methods: 165 patients were analyzed in four centers: Sanatorio Güemes (Diabetes and Endocrinology Service), PREDIGMA (Preventive Medicine Center, Posadas, Misiones), Central Hospital of San Isidro, Nexo Medical Center (Junín City) and Hospital Municipal of General Viamonte (Province of Buenos Aires). Results: it was found that 43.6% had some symptoms in the lower limbs and up to 57% had an alteration in the screening tests for diabetic neuropathy or peripheral arterial disease, with a higher prevalence the longer the evolution of DM. The most frequent signs found in the physical examination were: dry skin (71.5%), nail dystrophy (60.6%) or alteration of the foot pad (52.1%). The most frequent comorbidities were: hypertension (74.5%) and dyslipidemia (73.3%). The median glycated hemoglobin was 7.40% (6.70-8.10), higher in people with a history of retinopathy (7.8%; p <0.01) and in patients who reported having cramps (7, 85 to 7.30; p = 0.03) or burning (8.0 vs 7.3; p <0.01). The percentage of patients with high-risk foot due to antecedents, inspection or screening for neuropathy or vascular disease represented from 40% in those with DM of less than five years of evolution to 86% in those who were older than 20 years. Conclusions: this high percentage of patients with foot at risk identified in this study suggests that, in addition to the correct physical examination, the attending physician requires the taking of behaviors, such as the indication of appropriate footwear or insoles, as well as a fluid referral to the orthotic technician, orthopedic surgeon, or physiatrist.

Resumen La violencia criminal se concentra en vecindarios afectados por condiciones de precariedad socioeconómica. En Chile, se han implementado diversas estrategias de seguridad de larga trayectoria, aunque poco analizadas hasta ahora. Con base en una investigación cuantitativa y cualitativa realizada en 2019, se revisa la respuesta frente al fenómeno. En diálogo con aquellas teorías que han explicado la violencia urbana, nuestro supuesto de investigación refiere a que existe una brecha en la forma como las autoridades conciben y dan respuesta a la violencia delictual, y la manera en que la ciudadanía las percibe. La investigación muestra que las iniciativas se han focalizado principalmente en acciones orientadas al control social informal de las comunidades, incorporando, en la última década, un componente urbano que privilegia una escala mayor de intervención en los territorios. Sin embargo, y pese a dichos esfuerzos, se observa un grado de penetración del Estado que aún es difícil de establecer, al mismo tiempo que el alcance de dicha respuesta es limitado para sus habitantes.

Abstract Criminal violence concentrates in neighborhoods affected by socioeconomic precarious conditions. In Chile, several long-standing security strategies have been implemented, although scarcely analyzed so far. Based on a quantitative and qualitative research carried out in 2019, this paper reviews the response to the phenomenon. After considering and analyzing the theories that have explained urban violence, our research assumption refers to the fact that there is a gap in the way the authorities conceive and respond to criminal violence and the way citizens perceive them. The research shows the initiatives have been focused mainly on actions aimed at the informal social control of the communities, incorporating in the last decade an urban component that favors a larger scale of intervention in the territories. However, despite these efforts, the degree of penetration by the State in the territories is difficult to establish, at the same time the scope of said response is limited for its inhabitants.

Abstract Background: Although there have been studies on the sexual phase of some species of Thelypteridaceae, none have included germination types and prothallial development. Question: Is there variation in the type of germination and prothallial development in the gametophytes of four species in the family Thelypteridaceae? Study species: Four species of the family Thelypteridaceae: Meniscium falcatum, Goniopteris mollis, Goniopteris liebmannii, and Goniopteris minor of the states of Chiapas, Oaxaca, and Tabasco. Methods: Spores were collected, sown in Petri dishes with Thompson culture medium, stored in transparent plastic bags, and placed in a plant growth chamber. The various stages of gametophyte development were fixed in FAA with 0.8 % sucrose, dehydrated in gradual alcohols, critical point dried, mounted on stubs, and coated with gold. The photomicrographs were obtained using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) Model Jeol JSM5310-LV. Results: The spores are monolete and perinate. Germination is of the Vittaria type, and prothallial development of the Aspidium type. Adult gametophytes are cordiform-spatulate, with numerous glandular, simple and single-celled hairs, antheridia and archegonia are of the leptosporangiate type. The first sporophyte leaf is bi or trilobate, with free dichotomous venation, with capitate-glandular hairs, simple, unicellular and acicular hairs, and hypostomatic polycytic stomata. Conclusions: The differences observed among the studied species are: spore size, perispore ornamentation, germination and emergence timing of the rhizoids, type and size of hairs, and development time of gametangia and sporophytes.

Resumen Antecedentes: Existen trabajos sobre la fase sexual para algunas especies de Thelypteridaceae, pero no hacen mención sobre tipos de germinación y desarrollo protálico. Pregunta: ¿Existe variación en el tipo de germinación y desarrollo protálico en los gametofitos de cuatro especies de la familia Thelypteridaceae? Especies de estudio: Cuatro especies de la familia Thelypteridaceae: Meniscium falcatum, Goniopteris mollis, Goniopteris liebmannii y Goniopteris minor, de los estados de Chiapas, Oaxaca y Tabasco. Métodos: Se recolectaron esporas, se sembraron en cajas Petri con medio de cultivo Thompson, guardándose en bolsas de plástico transparentes y se colocaron en una cámara de crecimiento de plantas. Las fases de desarrollo de los gametofitos se fijaron en FAA con sacarosa al 0.8 %, se deshidrataron en alcoholes graduales, se desecaron en punto crítico, se montaron en porta-muestras y se recubrieron con oro. Las microfotografías se obtuvieron usando un microscopio electrónico de barrido (MEB) Modelo Jeol JSM5310-LV. Resultados: Las esporas son monoletes y perinadas. La germinación es de tipo Vittaria, y el desarrollo protálico de tipo Aspidium. Los gametofitos adultos son cordiforme-espatulados, con pelos-capitados glandulares, simples y unicelulares. Los anteridios y arquegonios son del tipo leptosporangiados. La primera hoja del esporofito tiene forma lobada, bi o trilobada, con venación dicotómica abierta, con pelos-capitados glandulares, simples unicelulares y aciculares y estomas polocíticos hipostomáticos. Conclusiones: Las diferencias observadas entre las especies estudiadas son: tamaño de las esporas, ornamentación del perisporio, períodos de germinación y emergencia del rizoide, tipo y tamaño de los pelos, tiempo de desarrollo de los gametangios y esporofitos.
