João De Lobeira
João Pires de Lobeira (c. 1233–1285) was a Portuguese troubadour of the time of King Afonso III, who is supposed to have been the first to reduce into prose the story of '' Amadis de Gaula''. Carolina Michaëlis de Vasconcellos, in her masterly edition of the ''Cancioneiro da Ajuda'' (Halle, 1904, vol. 1, pp. 523–524), gives some biographical notes on Lobeira, who is represented in the ''Cancioneiro da Biblioteca Nacional'' (Halle, 1880) by five poems (Nos. 230-233). In number 230, Lobeira uses the same ''ritournelle'' that Oriana sings in ''Amadis de Gaula'', and this has led to his being generally considered by modern supporters of the Portuguese case to have been the author of the novel, in preference to Vasco de Lobeira, to whom the prose original was formerly ascribed. The folklorist A. Thomas Pires (in his ''Vasco de Lobeira, Elvas'', 1905), following the old tradition, would identify the novelist with a man of that name who flourished in Elvas Elvas () is a ...

Vasco De Lobeira
Vasco de Lobeira (died 1403) was a Portuguese medieval writer to whom is attributed the prose original of the romance '' Amadis de Gaula''. In the Portuguese ''Chronicle'' of Gomes Eannes de Azurara (1454), the writing of ''Amadís'' is attributed to Vasco de Lobeira, who was dubbed knight after the Battle of Aljubarrota (1385). However, other sources claim that in fact it was João Lobeira, and not the troubadour Vasco de Lobeira, and that rather than originating with him it was the revision of an earlier work from the beginning of the 14th century. Another theory, postulated by the eminent scholar of Iberian literature, A. F. G. Bell, states that Vasco de Lobeira elaborated the work of his ancestor João Lobeira. Bell was of the opinion that Vasco had added romantic sections to the original text, which was mostly poetry written during the reign of King Dinis. The query as to who authored Amadis de Gaula is further complicated by the fact that Vasco de Lobeira's name crops ...

Disocactus
''Disocactus'' is a genus of epiphytic cacti in the tribe Hylocereeae found in Central America, the Caribbean and northern South America. It should not be confused with ''Discocactus'', which is a different genus. Species of ''Disocactus'' grow in tropical regions either on trees as epiphytes or on rocks as lithophytes. They have two distinct growth habits. Species such as '' D. phyllanthoides'' have stems which are round at the base but then become flattened and leaflike. Many of the cultivated plants known as epiphyllum hybrids or just epiphyllums are derived from crosses between species of ''Disocactus'' (rather than ''Epiphyllum'') and other genera in the Hylocereeae., p. 286 Description The species of the genus ''Disocactus'' grow as epiphytes or lithophytes and are shrubby, profusely branched, hanging, up to 3 m long. The shoots are ribbed or flattened, 3-angled or flattened, ribbon-like, 3–10 mm wide, remotely crenate and leaf-like. The main shoot, which rot ...

Solanum Lycocarpum
''Solanum lycocarpum'', or wolf apple, is common in the Brazilian savanna, the Cerrado ecoregion. The plant is called ''lobeira'' ("wolf's plant") or ''fruta-do-lobo'' ("wolf's fruit") in Portuguese.
