Nova Odessa (lit., New Odessa) is a Brazilian municipality in the state of São Paulo. It is part of the Metropolitan Region of Campinas. The population is 60,956 (2020 est.) in an area of 73.79 km².

On May 24, 1905, the Brazilian government founded Nova Odessa as a "Núcleo Colonial" (the "Colonial Nuclei" were agricultural areas to where the Brazilian government wished to attract European immigrants in large-scale).

Butia Paraguayensis
''Butia paraguayensis'' is a species of ''Butia'' palm tree found in the cerrado region of South America. Its natural range runs from Mato Grosso do Sul and São Paulo in southern Brazil through Paraguay to northern Argentina and Uruguay. It was given the name dwarf yatay palm in English by 2000, and it is locally known as ''yata'i'' in Guaraní in Paraguay, or ''butiá-do-cerrado'' in Portuguese in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Taxonomy Many researchers have considered it a dwarf variety of ''Butia yatay''. In 1916 Odoardo Beccari reduced ''Cocos paraguayensis'' to a variety of ''Butia yatay'', yet at the same time he described a new species from San Ignacio, Misiones, Argentina, which he named ''B. pungens''. In 1970 Sidney Fredrick Glassman moved this species, along with all other ''Butia'', to '' Syagrus'', but in 1979 he changed his mind and moved everything back. In a 1979 review of the genus ''Butia'' by Glassman, he continued to distinguish ''B. pungens'', believing ''B. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
