"One. A large collection, mainly of isolated molars, from Águas do Araxá, Brazil, seems to represent a single population within a species identified as Haplomastodon waringi. The variation, described in some detail, is far greater than has hitherto usually been taken into consideration in the diagnosis of supposed species of mastodonts. 2. Mastodonts have been found at many localities scattered throughout Brazil. A few specimens are anomalous, but the great majority belong to, or are at least inseparable from, H. waringi on the basis of known characters. 3. Ecuadorian Haplomastodon is not at present specifically separable from H. waringi, and neither in Brazil nor in Ecuador is there good evidence of the presence of more than one species (or subgenus). 4. The only species and genera that now seem to be clearly distinct among South American mastodonts are Cuvieronius hyodon, Haplomastodon waringi, and Stegomastodon platensis. All these names have numerous synonyms. The species Stegomastodon superbus and the genus and species Notiomastodon ornatus are also tentatively listed as distinct, but are of doubtful status. 5. Haplomastodon is believed to be about as closely related to Cuvieronius as to Stegomastodon. 6. All the South American mastodonts seem to represent end terms of divergence within a single broad stock. Cuvieronius, Stegomastodon, and probably also Haplomastodon were already differentiated before they spread from North America to South America. The North American Rhynchotherium may belong to the same complex. All may ultimately have arisen from early Old World Anancinae, and all are tentatively referred to that subfamily"--P. 185.
BRAZIL IS SILENTLY CHANGING. Globalization and the massification of technology generate opportunities for new business to emerge and for the transformation of the traditional business people into entrepreneurs. Startups and corporations that noticed this movement are shaping the New Economy, while the most traditional companies remain static, living in the past. The old Brazil allowed poor services and artificial results to perpetuate, but now the dynamic has changed. It seems obvious to say that the world has changed since we entered the information and telecommunication age. By scrolling our smartphone screen, we have the power to transform an entire battlefield. We are always one innovation away from finding out that everything we know has become obsolete. Data has turned into the most valuable coin for companies. This is the age of the New Economy. In this turbulent and dynamic scenario, remaining stuck to old practices and paradigms can mean being swallowed up by businesses aligned with the principles of constant innovation. Mastering the new rules will define who remains in the market. To avoid the risk of being undertaken by the avalanche of information in this new world, Diego Barreto, Finance and Strategy Vice President at iFood, will teach us how to navigate the New Economy and to use the new reality to our advantage. With this book, you will learn: What is the New Economy and why is it taking shape in Brazil; How to identify Old Economy practices that are harming your business; Why meritocracy of ideas, diversity & inclusion, sustainability, radical transparency and conscious capitalism are key factors to the success of companies; What are the
