b) Illustrations

7. Graphic and photographic illustrations shall be numbered sequentially, in the order of their citation in the text (Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3 ...), and considered, even boards or pictures, indiscriminately as Figures. Figures composed of several illustrations should be grouped into only 1 file, labeled with letters: Figure 1A. ---; B. ---; C.---. All illustrations should be prepared in .jpg format with 255 dpi resolution. The figures should be prepared in order to optimize the available space.

Examples:

Lima (2020), Lima & Silva (2021), Lima, Pereira & Silva (2021) and for four authors or more, Lima et al. (2019). In case of many references, organize them by alphabetic order, separated by semicolons. Example: ... (Karl et al. 2015; Reynolds et al. 2010; Simon et al. 2002).

10. At the end of the text, write the references in the alphabetical order of the surname of the first author, using the following formats:
