▼ There are two main ways of expressing the comparative in English adjectives. One is to precede the adjectival base with more and the other is to suffix -er to the base. For the group of adjectives ending in an orthographic -y and an /i/ sound, which I call the y-adjectives, the alternation between more and -er cannot be neatly explained by structural accounts, whether predominantly synchronic or diachronic. The idea of understanding this alternation with respect to a paradigm of comparative constructions is introduced in this thesis. This paradigm comprises a multitude of more and -er constructions (including those of y-adjectives) that share the grammatical function of the comparative. The goal of this thesis is to examine to what extent the comparatives of y-adjectives can be accounted for by the comparative constructions of other members in this paradigm, in addition to a set of syntactic, morphological and phonological considerations. Two empirical studies are reported: a study of the comparative constructions in seven corpora of British comedies spanning the 17th to the 20th centuries; and an experimental study where reading times in the context of comparative y-adjective constructions were observed in a series of self-paced reading tasks. In the corpus study, the morphology of y-adjective bases is found to be a significant predictor of their comparatives. Additionally, significant correlations are found between: • the comparatives of y-adjectives and those of the disyllabic adjectives that are not y-adjectives (to which I have given the cover term of HANDSOME adjectives); • the comparatives of y-adjectives and those of the monosyllabic adjectives; and • the comparatives of y-adjectives and those of adverbs that share some formal features with y-adjectives. The experimental study furthers an investigation of comparative alternation in y-adjectives in terms of the comparatives of HANDSOME adjectives and the morphological structure of y-adjective bases. In this study, pre-to-post treatment reading is found to be facilitated in y-adjective more comparatives by an exposure to multiple instances of more constructions from the HANDSOME adjectives. The more constructions from HANDSOME adjectives are also found to reduce facilitation in reading in morphologically simple y-adjectives paired with -er. On the other hand, the -er constructions from HANDSOME adjectives are found to reduce facilitation in reading in morphologically complex y-adjectives paired with more. The studies undertaken in this work indicate two important predictors of the comparatives of y-adjectives: the comparatives of HANDSOME adjectives; and the morphological structure of y-adjective bases. The involvement of the comparatives of HANDSOME adjectives as a predictor points to the importance of a paradigm of comparatives for an understanding of the comparatives of y-adjectives. The influence of this paradigm, combined with the influence of morphology, is argued to shed light on a question motivated by the diachronic literature on what could be… Advisors/Committee Members: Bayer, Laurie, Warren, Paul.

Theoretical thesis..

Chapter 1. Thesis introduction – Chapter 2. Two-year-olds' sensitivity to inflectional plural morphology : allomorphic effects – Chapter 3. One koss, two kosses : three-year-olds know when /s/ means plural and when it does not – Chapter 4. Pre-schoolers' emerging understanding of number and agreement – Chapter 5. Hearing loss and the acquisition of plural morphology – Chapter 6. Thesis discussion.

By two years of age children are using singular and plural words appropriately in their speech (Brown 1973), yet it is unclear whether their early representations are adult-like. It is not known how and when children develop the understanding that a word such as cats is composed of the lexical root cat and the plural morpheme -s (i.e., cat+s). The aim of this thesis was to therefore to explore some of the factors that potentially affect young children's understanding of the marking of nominal number in English.

The studies presented in chapters two and three examined children's early comprehension of singular and plural using a novel-word Intermodal Preferential Looking task (Kouider, Halberda, Wood & Carey, 2006). In chapter two, the results found that 24-month-olds had an understanding of plural morphology that was limited to the voiceless plural allomorph /-s/ (e.g., cat + /s/), which is longer in duration and more perceptually salient than the voiced allomorph /-z/ (e.g., dog + /z/). However, the results presented in chapter three suggested that perceptual salience was not the only factor to play a role in children's acquisition of plural morphology, as 36-months-olds, but not 30-month-olds, were found to understand the most perceptually salient syllabic allomorph /-əz/ (e.g., bus + /əz/).

The studies presented in chapters four and five examined pre-schoolers' understanding of singular and plural using a novel-word forced choice task. In chapter four, the study found 3- to 5-year-olds' comprehension of novel plurals, yet not novel singulars, improved with age. The study in chapter five examined children with hearing loss, which is known to affect children's acquisition of English plural and tense inflections, likely due to difficulty perceiving fricatives (Koehlinger, Owen Van Horne, & Moeller, 2013). Overall, the children with hearing loss were no better than chance at identifying novel plurals and singulars. However, comprehension of novel plurals improved with age. The thesis concludes with a discussion of the acquisition of morphological representations more generally.

▼ The vertebrate integument is a complex anatomical system that has evolved a wide array of specialized structures that are related to an animal’s ecology and evolutionary history, including mineralized structures found in many clades and ecological niches called osteoderms. However, the development, functional morphology, and evolutionary history of osteoderms is still poorly understood in relation to other portions of the skeleton. Osteoderms have independently evolved multiple times and can be found in the skin of many vertebrate lineages, making up a significant portion of the evolutionary history of the tetrapod skeleton. Though several hypotheses of osteoderm function have been proposed based on their overall morphology, osteoderm function has rarely been the subject of experimental analyses and only in a few taxa. The major aims of this research are to test new and previously proposed hypotheses of osteoderms function and to better understand drivers of osteoderm morphological variation using Crocodylomorpha as the study group, both because of their long and rich history of ecological diversity and because of their exemplary fossil record compared with other osteoderm bearing taxa. Quantification of within-individual variation in extant crocodilians suggests that relaxed selection on osteoderm morphology only occurs in taxa thought to exhibit reduced intraspecific aggression, suggesting that osteoderms evolved in Crocodylia as a defensive structure in territorial disputes. This is corroborated by an ontogenetic analysis, which demonstrates that in at least some crocodilian species, osteoderm growth coincides with the onset of territorial behavior, contradicting previously proposed hypotheses that crocodilian osteoderms function in thermoregulation, in stabilization of the vertebral column, or as a defense against predators. In contrast with previous research that had demonstrated a reduction of body flexibility when osteoderms are present, a final comparative analysis across Crocodylomorpha found no correlation between osteoderm aspect ratio and locomotor ecology, suggesting that osteoderm dimensions have no impact on flexibility. This research disputes some previously proposed hypotheses of osteoderm function and when placed in context of other research, reveals that osteoderms may have different functions in different taxa.

▼ Words that are systematically related in form and meaning exhibit morphological structure. A fundamental question in morphological theory concerns the nature of this structure, and the role that it serves in grammatical organization. One view of morphological structure, the morpheme-based perspective, characterizes complex words as constructed from smaller, independently meaningful pieces. An alternative view, the word-based perspective, characterizes whole words as participating in patterns that are abstracted over networks of surface words, whether "simple" or "complex". This dissertation explores the consequences of these two views of morphological structure, as they apply to the analysis of American Sign Language and English. Here I show that the morphological structure of a variety of words in ASL and in English can be analyzed in terms of constructions, or learned pairings of form and meaning. These morphological constructions range from simple and concrete, in the case of actually- occurring surface words, to more schematic and complex, in the case of recurring patterns and sub-patterns extracted from whole surface words. Comparing compounds, derived words, borrowed words, and lexical blends in a spoken language and a sign language reveals that though many words can be analyzed into component pieces, the identifiable pieces may do very little to determine the meaning of the particular word. Instead, word-internal structure is a reflection of the structure of the networks, or lexical families, that whole words participate in. This exploration demonstrates that rather than primarily compositional, and resulting from the combination of meaningful parts, word-internal structure is relational, serving to link words together, within and across families. As a construction-theoretic analysis of derivational morphology in a spoken language and a sign language, this dissertation ties together and provides a unified analysis for a range of empirical phenomena. I anticipate that this study will also provide a point of departure for future studies of spoken and sign language morphology, either together or in isolation, from a construction-theoretic and word-based perspective

M.A. (African Languages)

The main purpose of this study was to investigate morphological reduplication in the word class nouns, verbs and ideophones in Zulu, and to describe them according to their formal and semantic features. An outline is given in chapter 1 of the status of the morpheme within the word morphology according to general linguistic principles, theories concerning the morpheme as well as the character or nature of morphological reduplication. According to the literature on this subject it appears that morphological reduplication performs widely, even universally. In chapter 2 attention is given to reduplication in the most important languages and dialects in the Nguni language group apart from Zulu. These languages and dialects include the following: Swati, Bhaca, Phuthi, Northen Transvaal Ndebele, Lala, Xhosa, Southern Transvaal Ndebele and Mpondo. It is found that all these languages and dialects present a common character with regard to morphological reduplication. Zulu, as the main concern of study in respect of morphological reduplication, is studied in detail in chapter 3. The word classes of Zulu are looked at according to Van Wyk's word class grouping, whilst special attention is given to nouns. It is found that morphological reduplication in Zulu nouns shows an extention of the semantic features represented in the single noun. The reduplicated forms have the semantic features of especially abundance, numerousness and completeness. The formal features of the reduplicated noun in Zulu are studied with special reference to the monosyllabic noun, the disyllabic noun and the polisyllabic noun. Their possible combination (in their reduplicated form) with a suffix as well as the formal features of the reduplicated suffix, are studied at length. In chapter 4 the morphological reduplication of verbs (in this instance also monosyllabic, disyllabic and polisyllabic stems) is discussed. The verb can be reduplicated as a whole or only partially with the semantic features of, inter alia, intensity or thoroughness. The verb can also be reduplicated in combination with a suffix with the result that the semantic feature of the suffix acts complementary to the semantic features of the reduplicated verb. In chapter 5 the morphological reduplication of ideophones is discussed. The semantic features of reduplication are characterised as intense, complete, purposeful and final. The formal features show that only disyllabic ideophones represent morphological reduplication that may be fully or only partially reduplicated.

Thesis Ph. D. Michigan State University. Zoology 2014.

The study of size covariation between traits has a long history of describing morphological variation. For over a century, scientists have recognized variation in the proportional size of traits, and have searched to explain the patterns from an evolutionary perspective. Research on the scaling relationships between traits, called allometries, has established the interaction of traits within an organism plays a crucial role in the adaptation of species to their environment. The evolutionary forces that give rise to changes in the proportional size of traits have been more difficult to elucidate. Using the model organism, Drosophila melanogaster, I have focused my research on the scaling of male genitalia in relation to overall body size to explore proximate and ultimate causes of allometries in general. Most traits scale at or near a 1:1 ratio to overall body size, called isometry. In contrast, the male genitalia of many groups scale hypoallometrically to body size, remaining a constant size across a range of body sizes. Determining the factors that drive the atypical allometric relationship of the male genitalia promises to reveal principles of size control across all traits. To investigate the developmental mechanisms underlying genital hypoallometry, I first compared the effects of genetic variation on genital traits (hypoallometric) to somatic traits (isometric). Previous research has shown that genital traits are less sensitive to environmental variation than somatic traits and here I demonstrate that genital traits are also less sensitive to variation in genetic factors that affect trait size. I also showed that genitalia have low levels of developmental stability than somatic traits, measured as the response in trait size to stochastic developmental errors. Next, I used targeted gene expression of insulin-signaling genes in developing genital tissues of Drosophila to allometrically engineer male flies with extreme genital sizes. Females were exposed to males with different genital sizes, and demonstrated a preference for copulating, and fertilizing progeny, with males that had larger genitalia. To expand the scope of these results, a stochastic mathematical model of allometry evolution was designed that incorporated the developmental regulation of size. Results of simulated allometry evolution showed that the underlying factors controlling final trait size largely determine how scaling relationships respond to selection and evolve. Collectively, my dissertation represents a significant step forward in our understanding of trait size regulation between covarying traits. Additionally, my research demonstrates the novel use of Drosophila melanogaster to modify existing levels of trait variation to test selection hypotheses. Scaling relationships between traits are an important component of morphological evolution that we can continue learning about only via multifaceted research as demonstrated here.

▼ This thesis attempts to address a number of problems related to the phonological and morphological development of the subjunctive mood in the Celtic languages, and to come to a reconstruction of the category based on all of the data attested in the documented languages. The origin of the various subjunctive morphemes attested in the Celtic languages has long been a contested matter in comparative Celtic and Indo-European linguistics, particularly regarding the question of whether the ā-subjunctive of Old Irish constitutes a shared innovation with the Italic branch of the language family. In this thesis, the data is comprehensively reassessed, attempting to reconstruct the Proto-Celtic subjunctive from the ground up. After a brief survey of the subjunctive in Indo-European more generally, the material from the relatively well-understood Insular Celtic languages is examined. Significant progress has been made in the treatment of the subjunctive in Irish and Brittonic, particularly by McCone (1991), and, more recently, Zair (2012b). Some debate still remains, however, particularly in relation to a set of irregular forms in the Brittonic languages (MW el, O/MBr. -el), which are taken by Jasanoff (1994; 2009) as conclusive proof of an Italo-Celtic ā-subjunctive. This work shows that these forms can be explained without recourse to an ā-subjunctive category otherwise unattested in Brittonic Celtic. The distinguishing characteristics of the subjunctive categories attested in Insular Celtic are then used to come to a provisional reconstruction of the category. The second half of the thesis assesses the Continental Celtic evidence for the subjunctive. As this material is more fragmentary, and there is greater controversy as to its interpretation, first the historical phonology of Gaulish and Celtiberian is examined, in order to set criteria by which subjunctive forms may be identified. The possible evidence for the subjunctive in these languages is then analysed on a case-by-case basis, in order to establish whether it is truly admissible as evidence of the category. It is found that many of the forms previously identified in the scholarship as subjunctive are likely to have been misinterpreted. Nonetheless, there is a small but significant body of evidence for the category in Continental Celtic. This is finally brought together with the Insular Celtic material to establish a reconstruction of the Proto-Celtic subjunctive. The possible consequences of this reconstruction to that of the Indo-European subjunctive are then briefly assessed.

Foram aplicadas técnicas de análise e comparação de anatomia detalhada, através de dissecções e por análises moleculares em um grupo altamente variável como os Ostreidae com objetivo de comprovar o monofiletismo de Crassostreinae. Por ser economicamente importante em todo o mundo, a diferenciação entre as espécies é fundamental, com aplicações até na produção. Através de um estudo comparativo de morfologia detalhada, representantes de quase todos os gêneros de Ostreoidea foram analisados. Inicialmente, os representantes da subfamília Crassostreinae foram estudados isoladamente. Em cada uma foi realizada uma análise filogenética na procura de sua monofilia e de sua identidade básica. Os representantes de Ostreinae e Gryphaeidae foram utilizados como grupo-externo. Em seguida, alguns representantes de Pteriomorphia foram incorporados ao grupo-externo (Limidae, Spondylidae, Plicatulidae, Isognomonidae, Anomiidae) com enraizamento em Arcidae. Foram estudados 73 caracteres, presentemente comentados e discutidos. Uma única árvore mais parcimoniosa foi obtida: (((((((Cryptostrea permolis (Teskeyostrea weberi ((Hyotissa hyotis (Parahyotissa mcgintyi - P. numisma)) ((Eostrea puelchana - E. lurida) (Ostrea edulis (Ostreola equestris (\"Dendostreas̈p1 ((Lopha cristagalli - Alectryonella plicatula) ((Dendostrea folium - D. sp 2) (\"Dendostreaf̈rons (\"Saccostreaëchinata (\"Saccostreap̈almula (((Saccostrea mordax - \"Striostreap̈rismatica) (Saccostrea cucullata - S. glomerata)) ((Crassostrea virginica (C. gigas - C. bilineata)) (C. mangle (C. brasiliana - C. rhizophorae)))))))))))))))) Plicatulostrea onca) Plicatula gibbosa) Spondylus americanus) Lima sp.) (Anomia simplex - Isognomon alatus)) Barbatia cândida) tendo como índices: passos = 372, IC = 27 e IR = 58. Nota-se que a monofilia de Crassostreinae foi comprovada e é suportada por 6 sinapomorfias, Crassostrea também é monofilético, suportado por 4 sinapomorfias. Saccostrea, considerando a espécie tipo S. cucullata, é monofilético junto com S. glomerata. Dados obtidos por análises moleculares, realizadas neste e dados do GenBank®, corrobora, em parte, com os dados anatômicos; Crassostrea é considerado monofilético em ambas análises. As diferenças e semelhanças morfo-anatômicas encontradas em quase todas as estruturas foram suficientes para a separação e agrupamento entre os gêneros e respectivas espécies

Techniques of analysis and comparison of detailed anatomy through dissections and molecular analysis were applied in a highly variable group as Ostreidae in order to prove the monophyly of Crassostreinae. Being economically important worldwide, differentiation between species is essential in applications to production. Through a detailed comparative study of morphology, representatives of almost all genres of Ostreoidea were analyzed. Initially, the representatives of the subfamily Crassostreinae were studied in isolation. A phylogenetic analysis was performed in the search for your monophyly and their basic identity in each one.

Exemplares anteriormente atribuídos à Panoplax elata (A. Milne-Edwards, 1880), e reexaminados posteriormente serviram de base para a descrição de três novos gêneros e espécies: Euphrosynoplax clausa Guinot, 1969; Robertsella mystica Guinot, 1969 e Thalassoplax angusta Guinot, 1969. Destes foram fornecidas apenas descrições exíguas e parcas ilustrações, de modo que, ainda hoje, continuam todos mal caracterizados morfologicamente. As diagnoses e descrições existentes limitam-se a poucas linhas e não fazem menção a caracteres distintivos. As poucas ilustrações existentes não ajudam a separar Euphrosynoplax, Robertsella e Thalassoplax entre si ou tão pouco dos gêneros afins Panoplax Stimpson, 1871 e Eucratopsis Smith, 1869. Visando sanar estas dificuldades, os gêneros em questão foram comparados, ilustrados e diferenciados morfologicamente entre si. Adicionalmente, comparações preliminares entre material das coleções do Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo, coletado no Rio Grande do Sul, e representantes da maioria dos gêneros de Panopeidae, incluindo a maior parte dos tipos, Robertsella inclusive, revelou que o material do Atlântico Sul Ocidental pertence a uma nova espécie de Robertsella. Além disso, comparações entre a espécie tipo de Panoplax elata com um exemplar adicional identificado erroneamente como sendo esta espécie (depositado no \"National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution\"), revelou, na verdade, se tratar de uma nova espécie, pertencente ao gênero Euphrosynoplax. Deste modo, o presente trabalho objetivou: descrever detalhadamente, ilustrar, e diferenciar morfologicamente estas espécies entre si, inclusive as novas espécies de Robertsella e Euphrosynoplax

Specimens formerly assigned to Panoplax elata (A. Milne-Edwards, 1880), and reexamined later have constituted the basis for the description of three new genera and species: Euphrosynoplax clausa Guinot, 1969; Robertsella mystica Guinot, 1969 and Thalassoplax angusta Guinot, 1969. For these, they were provided with only short descriptions and few illustrations, so that, even today, they remain poorly characterized morphologically. The available diagnoses and descriptions are limited to a few lines and do not mention distinctive characters. The few available illustrations do not help to separate Euphrosynoplax, Robertsella and Thalassoplax or even separate the related genera: Panoplax Stimpson, 1871 and Eucratopsis Smith, 1869. In order to solve these difficulties, the genera in question were compared, illustrated and differentiated morphologically from each other. Additionally, preliminary comparisons between material from collections of Museum of Zoology, University of São Paulo, collected in Rio Grande do Sul, and representatives of most genera of Panopeidae, including most types, Robertsella including, have revealed that the material of the Western South Atlantic belongs to a new species of Robertsella. Moreover, comparisons between type-species of Panoplax elata with an additional specimen being misidentified as this…

In my thesis I compare the compound structures of the Modern Hebrew Language with corresponding structures of Modern Greek. The scientific questions posed in the dissertation can be summarized as follows: i. what are the structures of the compounds in the Greek language, ii. what are the compound structures in Modern Hebrew, iii. what is their relationship on the basis of common criteria in the two languages characterized by such a large typological deviation, iv. what are the trends related to compounding in the two languages , and v. which structures seem to be more productive. The thesis consists of four chapters that refer respectively: to the theoretical framework for compounding, to the compounds of the Hebrew language, as it is spoken in the modern State of Israel, to the compound structures of Modern Greek, and in the last chapter, to the comparison of the structures of the two languages and to an attempt to locate the degree to which the specific structures are concurred with one another as well. The structures of Modern Hebrew are compared with the Greek Compounds and the common criteria for the two languages are analyzed as categorization criteria. The position of the structures into the linguistic continuum is examined through the specific criteria. The criteria used in the theoretical approach constitute the basic principles governing the biphasic structures of the two languages whose degree of power places them in a specific position into the linguistic continuum of nominal constructions. The categorization principles of the structures into the Morphology - Syntax continuum and the matching of the structures those of the Hebrew are also defined while the correspondences between the Greek-Hebrew structures are given. The trends from one-word toward multiple-words structures and from Syntax toward Morphology as well as the relationship between smichut and Mental Dictionary are examined, particularly in the way the smichut are being conceived by the native speaker of the Hebrew language (i.e. as semantic units) in order to prove the morphological nature of specific smichut structures.

▼ Primates span incredible behavioral and ecological diversity, and this diversity is reflected in the shape of the skull. This dissertation asks two questions surrounding the evolution of primate skull shape: 1) what are the macroevolutionary correlates of primate skull shape? And 2) what is the pattern of phenotypic integration in the primate skull at a macroevolutionary scale? To address these questions, I compiled a broad comparative dataset of anatomical landmarks identified from 3D scans of primate skulls and analyzed this data using statistical methods that combine geometric morphometrics and phylogenetic comparative methods. To investigate the macroevolutionary correlates of skull shape, I used multivariate phylogenetic generalized linear models to test for relationships between skull shape and several variables that are predicted to be correlated with skull shape: allometry, typical diet, tree gouging behavior, activity pattern, and sexual dimorphism. I found strong phylogenetic signal for primate skull shape, confirming the need for phylogenetic comparative methods. Allometry was a significant predictor of skull shape, with larger primates having relatively small, convergent orbits, and anteroposteriorly short skulls compared to small primates. Sexual dimorphism was associated with a dramatically lengthened rostrum, probably to facilitate a large gape in aggressive displays. Folivory was associated with deeper mandibles, which may improve mechanical advantage and strain resistance. To investigate patterns of phenotypic integration in the skull, I performed hierarchical clustering analyses on phylogenetically corrected inter-landmark covariance matrices. In contrast to previous research, I did not find evidence for distinct phenotypic modules in the primate skull, and I argue that this discrepancy is due to methodological shortcomings of past research that biased results towards identifying different anatomical regions as discrete modules. This dissertation represents one of the first investigations of primate skull shape at a macroevolutionary scale, and demonstrates that the combination of geometric morphometrics and phylogenetic comparative methods can yield novel insights into evolutionary morphology.

▼ This dissertation explores a domain of Spanish morphology that is phonologically-conditioned. Dominant phonological constraints may cause word-formation processes to depart from the unmarked conca-tenative pattern. I examine a set of marginal word-formation processes where different alternatives to concatenative morphology are exploited in order to generate new lexical forms. The language game Jerigonza, word-blending, truncatory morphology and playful-wording are all processes whereby an alternate lexical item is created without morpheme concatenation. On the basis that the new output form (NWO) reproduces derived properties of the source form (SF), such as syllable and foot structures, it is argued that SF is not an abstract input form but a fully-fledged output form. This approach is in line with recent proposals within Optimality and Correspondence Theories claiming that certain processes obey a correspondence relationship whereby two output forms are forced to retain a degree of resemblance that depends on the ranking of faithfulness constraints with respect to other active constraints. Consistent with the findings within Prosodic Morphology Theory, it is also shown that phonology and morphology interact through constraints that are defined in terms of phonological and morphological units. Alignment between the edges of these constituents is often a factor that determines NWO. In word-blending, the sequential order of morphemes is broken when one of the SF's overlaps upon the other one. In order to satisfy an alignment condition, NWO must contain some segments with multiple correspondents in SF, which do not have to be featurally identical. In Jerigonza, the contiguity of SF is altered by the intrusion of epenthetic syllables that help NWO meet a prosodic configuration where the correspondent of every syllable in SF heads a disyllabic foot. In truncatory morphology, SF is minimized in favor of prosodic unmarked-ness that is reflected at the prosodic-word level but also at the foot and syllable levels since NWO corresponds to a single binary foot projected on minimally-marked syllables. In playful-wording, SF is lengthened at its right edge through the introduction of an epenthetic syllable that helps avoid a word-final main-stressed foot.

A Mata Atlântica figura entre os biomas com o maior índice de biodiversidade, mais ameaçados e menos conhecidos cientificamente do planeta. Nesse bioma, a família Rubiaceae se destaca como a quarta mais importante em número de espécies e indivíduos. Com o objetivo de aumentar o conhecimento relativo ao bioma e à família em questão, este trabalho propõe o estudo de Coccocypselum lanceolatum (Ruiz & Pavon) Persoon, uma espécie de hábito herbáceo frequente em diferentes fitofisionomias de Mata Atlântica no estado do Rio de Janeiro. O trabalho visa comparar a estrutura morfo-anatômica da espécie crescendo em Floresta Ombrófila Densa submontana, em região insular e Floresta Ombrófila Densa montana, em região continental. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida em dois remanescentes de Mata Atlântica no estado do Rio de Janeiro: Parque Estadual da Ilha Grande, no município de Angra dos Reis e Parque Ambiental Luiz Simões Lopes, município de Nova Friburgo. Foi feita a avaliação dos seguintes parâmetros ambientais: pluviosidade, temperatura, radiação solar e características do solo. Para a análise morfológica foliar, foram coletadas 25 folhas completamente expandidas, provenientes do 3 ou 4 nós, observando-se a mesma estação climática, entre os meses de maio e junho de 2010 (outono) nos dois sítios de estudo. Para o estudo anatômico foram selecionadas 10 folhas completamente expandidas, provenientes do 3 ou 4 nós, as quais foram fragmentadas nos níveis do pecíolo e terço-médio. Os parâmetros utilizados para a comparação dos materiais provenientes dos diferentes sítios consistiram na espessura total da lâmina foliar, na espessura do mesofilo (m), na espessura dos parênquimas (m), paliçádico e lacunoso, na espessura das epidermes (m) nas faces adaxiais e abaxiais, e nas densidades (mm2) de estômatos e de tricomas. Os resultados obtidos mostram que a espécie apresenta variação intraespecífica, relacionada aos diferentes parâmetros ambientais avaliados em função da origem. Desta forma, foram encontradas diferenças na composição química e física e consequentemente no pH dos solos; a presença de antocianinas em órgãos diferentes das flores e dos frutos no material de Nova Friburgo; diferenças morfológicas e anatômicas relativas às diferenças nos índices pluviométricos, composição do solo e radiação solar

▼ The purpose of this study is to propose a lexical analysis of inflection and cliticization in Spanish within the framework of Categorial Grammar, and to show how morphology and syntax interplay with one another in this language. I postulate that inflectional suffixes and clitics are syntactic expressions in their own right; inflectional suffixes are the instantiation of the grammatical relation, subject, whereas certain clitics, i.e. DAT and ACC clitics, are of the object. In this regard, inflection and cliticization can be conceived as functions from one set of syntactic expressions into another. I assume that inflectional suffixes and clitics are stored in the lexicon assigned to categories which specify their syntactic (and semantic) properties. These elements are combined to form complex expressions by two kinds of operations: (1) Function/argument application, and (2) Functional Composition. Three lexical rules are proposed in order to account for the distribution of the morphological properties at issue: (1) Inflection, (2) Cliticization, and (3) Complex Verb Formation. These rules make an explicit statement of what syntactic processes take place as morphologically complex expressions are formed. One consequence of my analysis is the redefinition of nominals commonly referred to as "subject NP" and "object NP" (doubled by a clitic) as elements which mark a referential contrast. This way, the formal variation as to the presence or absence of these nominals in Spanish sentences has a coherent explanation. Two rules of nominal adjunction are proposed in order to account for "clitic doubling" and "subject doubling". These two rules apply under certain conditions. With a lexical treatment of inflection and cliticization proposed, all the word formation processes in the Spanish language are now relegated to one single component, the lexicon. Morphology in Spanish, thus, has a clearly delineated domain of its own as an integral part of the lexicon. Furthermore, inflection and cliticization are morphological processes which, at the same time, construct syntactically complex expressions. This direct interplay between morphology and syntax is what uniquely characterizes the so-called "pro-drop" languages, of which Spanish is one, and distinguishes them from the "non-pro-drop" languages.

▼ This dissertation addresses the question of how various types of morpheme realization are to be coherently explained within the framework of Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 1993). Paying close attention to a-templatic nonconcatenative morphological processes such as subtractive morphology and umlaut, I develop a formal theory dubbed 'Realizational Morphology Theory (RMT)'. The most important claim of this dissertation is that a REALIZE MORPHEME (RM) constraint plays a central role in a comprehensive and principled understanding of realizational morphology. In nonconcatenative morphology, its interactions with faithfulness constraints are of crucial importance. A second important proposal is the relativization of faithfulness constraints with respect to morphosyntactic categories. Given these two proposals, I demonstrate that the entire range of a-templatic nonconcatenative morphology is obtained through the ranking RM >> Faith. RMT not only covers morpheme realization in general but also has a number of desirable theoretical consequences. First, various descriptive devices such as zero morphs and floating features can be dispensed with, therefore simplifying the theory of morphology. Second, RMT is restrictive, eliminating unlikely morphological constructions. Especially, RMT eliminates the possibility of two simultaneous stem modifications. This argument is couched in terms of harmonic bounding (Prince and Smolensky 1993:176-178). This restrictiveness plays an important role in a critical evaluation of anti-faithfulness theory (Alderete 1999) since the latter predicts the existence of cases where a single morpheme receives more than one stem change. The organization of this dissertation is as follows. Chapter 1 is a general introduction, mapping out the overall goals in the context of previous works. Chapter 2 is devoted to the development of RMT. The remaining chapters are devoted to exemplification of RMT and to its further theoretical development. In chapter 3, I discuss morphological truncation. Chapter 4 discusses complementary distribution of nonconcatenative allomorphs, and in chapter 5, I examine constraint interactions resulting in two simultaneous phonological realizations of a single morpheme. Finally, chapter 6 summarizes the main results of this dissertation. Advisors/Committee Members: University of California, Santa Cruz.

Segundo Savitzky (1974) e Ferrarezzi (1994b), a tribo Nothopsini é composta pelos gêneros Diaphorolepis, Emmochliophis, Nothopsis, Synophise Xenopholis, contabilizando um total de doze espécies reconhecidas atualmente e distribuídas pelas Américas Central e do Sul. Embora hajam estudos especificamente dirigidos aos gêneros de Nothopsini, e outros que proporcionam hipóteses filogenéticas, as relações filogenéticas destes gêneros continuam alvo de debates, tendo os cinco gêneros de Nothopsini sido relacionados a diferentes grupos (Acrochordidae, Xenodontinae, Natricidae, Amastridinae, Dipsadinae e Xenodermatinae), por diferentes autores. Atualmente, os Nothopsini são definidos como gêneros incertae sedis dentro da subfamília Dipsadinae (Zaher, 1999). Com base no exame morfológico de material biológico e imagens ct-scan, neste trabalho foram comparadas a anatomia craniana, vertebral e hemipeniana das espécies Diaphorolepis wagneri, Nothopsis rugosus, Synophis bicolor, Amastridium veliferum, Chersodromus liebmanni, Ninia atrata, N. sebae, Xenopholis scalaris e X. undulatus. Objetivando posicionar os gêneros estudados num contexto mais amplo realizou-se uma análise filogenética preliminar com base na definição de 77 caracteres correspondentes à morfologia do complexo palatomaxilar, do suspensorium, mandíbula, dos ossos frontais, dos pós-orbitais, das vértebras e dos hemipênis das espécies estudadas de Nothopsini, além de 37 gêneros da família Dipsadidae, e usando Thamnophis elegans como grupo externo. Os resultados da anatomia comparada e da análise filogenética preliminar redefinem a tribo Nothopsini como formada pelos gêneros Diaphorolepis, Nothopsis e Synophis, posiciona o gênero Xenopholis na subfamília Dipsadinae e sugere uma relação próxima entre o gênero Xenopholis e os demais nothopsíneos. Já o gênero Emmochliophis é alocado dentro da subfamília Dipsadini, porém este posicionamento é visto com ressalvas até que mais análises sejam conduzidas. Ademais, são identificados dois padrões morfológicos, um compartilhado pelas espécies do gênero Ninia e Chersodromus liebmanni, e outro compartilhado entre Amastridium veliferum, Nothopsis rugosus, Diaphorolepis wagneri, Synophis e Xenopholis.

The tribe Nothopsini is composed by 12 currently recognized species from the genera Diaphorolepis, Emmochliophis, Nothopsis, Synophis and Xenopholis (Savitzky, 1974; Ferrarezi, 1994b) that are distributed throughout Central and South America. Although several studies addressed the Nothopsini, their phylogenetic affinities are still unresolved, with several author presenting distinct phylogenetic hypotheses for the five genera of Nothopsini. Currently, the genera assigned to the tribe Nothopsini are considered as incertae sedis within the Dipsadinae (Zaher, 1999). The present study is based on a morphological examination of biological material and ct-scan imaging that aims to compare the cranial, vertebral and hemipenial anatomy of Diaphorolepis wagneri, Nothopsis rugosus, Synophis bicolor, Amastridium veliferum, Chersodromus…

Objetivou-se neste trabalho fazer um estudo anatômico dos músculos da coxa de macacos Cebus spp.. Foram analisados 16 antímeros de 8 espécimes adultos de macaco-prego (Cebus spp.), sendo 7 machos e 1 fêmea. Para fixação injetou-se pela veia femoral, uma solução de 10% de formaldeído com 5% de glicerina. Nenhum animal foi eutanasiado para os fins deste estudo: quatro deles sofreram mortes acidentais em seu habitat natural e foram doados ao Laboratório de Anatomia, Bioquímica, Neurociência e Comportamento de Primatas (LABINECOP) da Universidade Federal de Goiás, Campus Catalão, o restante foram doados pelo Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis (IBAMA). Foram observadas a origem e inserção dos músculos: tensor da fáscia lata, sartório, reto femoral, vasto lateral, vasto medial, vasto intermédio, adutor magno, adutor longo, adutor curto, pectíneo, grácil, bíceps femoral, abdutor crural caudal, semitendinoso, semimembranoso próprio e acessório. A musculatura da coxa de Cebus spp., em termos gerais, são mais semelhantes aos babuínos, supostamente por ambos serem quadrúpedes, apresentarem cauda, comportamento semi-bípede e arborícola.

The objective of this paper to study the anatomy of the thigh muscles of Cebus spp. We used 16 members of eight 8 monkey (Cebus spp.), 7 males and 1 female. For perfusion fixation was performed through the femoral vein of 10% formaldehyde at 5% glycerin. No animals were euthanized for the purposes of this study: four of them suffered accidental deaths in their natural habitat and were donation from Laboratory of Anatomy, Biochemistry, Neuroscience and Behaviour of Primates (LABINECOP) Federal University of Goias, Campus of Catalão, rest of them donation to the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA). It described the origin and insertion of muscles: tensor fascia lata, sartorius, rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, vastus medialis, vastus intermedius, adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor short, pectineus, gracilis, biceps femoris, adductor cruris caudalis, semitendinosus, semimembranosus own accessory. The thigh muscles of Cebus spp., In general, are more similar to baboons, presumably because both are quadrupeds, submit tail behavior semi-bipedal and arboreal.

▼ This thesis describes the research efforts on pivot-based statistical machine translation (SMT) for morphologically rich languages (MRL). We provide a framework to translate to and from morphologically rich languages especially in the context of having little or no parallel corpora between the source and the target languages. We basically address three main challenges. The first one is the sparsity of data as a result of morphological richness. The second one is maximizing the precision and recall of the pivoting process itself. And the last one is making use of any parallel data between the source and the target languages. To address the challenge of data sparsity, we explored a space of tokenization schemes and normalization options. We also examined a set of six detokenization techniques to evaluate detokenized and orthographically corrected (enriched) output. We provide a recipe of the best settings to translate to one of the most challenging languages, namely Arabic. Our best model improves the translation quality over the baseline by 1.3 BLEU points. We also investigated the idea of separation between translation and morphology generation. We compared three methods of modeling morphological features. Features can be modeled as part of the core translation. Alternatively these features can be generated using target monolingual context. Finally, the features can be predicted using both source and target information. In our experimental results, we outperform the vanilla factored translation model. In order to decide on which features to translate, generate or predict, a detailed error analysis should be provided on the system output. As a result, we present AMEANA, an open-source tool for error analysis of natural language processing tasks, targeting morphologically rich languages. The second challenge we are concerned with is the pivoting process itself. We discuss several techniques to improve the precision and recall of the pivot matching. One technique to improve the recall works on the level of the word alignment as an optimization process for pivoting driven by generating phrase pairs between source and target languages. Despite the fact that improving the recall of the pivot matching improves the overall translation quality, we also need to increase the precision of the pivot quality. To achieve this, we introduce quality constraints scores to determine the quality of the pivot phrase pairs between source and target languages. We show positive results for different language pairs which shows the consistency of our approaches. In one of our best models we reach an improvement of 1.2 BLEU points. The third challenge we are concerned with is how to make use of any parallel data between the source and the target languages. We build on the approach of improving the precision of the pivoting process and the methods of combination between the pivot system and the direct system built from the parallel data. In one of the approaches, we introduce morphology constraint scores which are added to the log linear space…
