The flag logo of the PPS is at www.pps.com.br.
Dov Gutterman, 8 March 1999
The PPS is the main successor of the original Partido Comunista Brasileiro
(Brazilian Communist Party). The party was renamed in 1993 when a party
congress decided to drop Marxist-Leninist doctrine. At the same time
the hammer and sickle were removed from the party flag.
Joseph McMillan, 16 April 2001
The flag is defined in Article 5 of the party statute: "a red flag with the letters P, P, and S in golden yellow
(amarelo ouro). The PPS elected 15 deputies and one senator in the 2002 elections.

The party statute provides in article 81 that "The flag of the PSB has the colors yellow and red in two equal
horizontal stripes in that order and the inscription PSB." Article 82 adds that "The symbol of the PSB is the dove of peace by Picasso, flying to
the left, and it appears in the upper part of the flag."

I spotted the yellow and red flag during the 2000 Brazilian presidential
campaign.
Guillermo Tell Aveledo, 18 September 2000
The PSB is strongly leftist but more pragmatic than the PT. It
elected 22 deputies and 3 senators in 2002.

The Brazilian Socialist Party is, obviously, a socialist party and,
as also happens with the Portuguese Socialist Party, seems [as of 1999--ed.] to be thinking
about changing colors. The flag appears in two versions: (1) white on red
and (2) white with red lettering on a yellow-red degrade. However, according
to Carlos Noronha, and unlike what happens with the Portuguese party, only
one flag is used--red with the party logo in white centered. The logo consists
of the outline of a dove with a branch (of laurel? hard to tell but probable)
in the beak under the party's initials.

The Socialism & Liberty Party / Partido Socialismo e Liberdade (P-SOL) of
Brazil, whose presidential candidate Sen. Heloisa Helena Lima de Moraes Carvalho
won 6.8% of the vote in the first round of the election. Their flag was posted
at http://www.acaopopularsocialista.org.br (no longer available), a red flag
with the initials P-SOL, with the O shown as a sun encircled by a pink circle
with 8 rays, 8 yellow rays showing between these, the disc of the sun divided
into a white and a red half (a darker red than the flag?) with the white
extending in a thin semicircle around the red half, separating it from the pink
ring with the rays.

This one looks like a far-left party, small as they usually are all
over the place. I found an image on their website that has a "flaggy" character.
If this image corresponds to the flag, then it's a red flag with the initials
in yellow covering nearly all the field.
Jorge Candeias, 9 May 1999
The flag is at
the PSTU website. It isn't very clear, but it is quite simple. A rather
Marxist party.
Guilherme Simões Reis, 6 October 1999
Described in article 3 of the party statute as "a red flag ... inscribed on the field of the flag the upper case
letters P-S-T-U."
Joseph McMillan, 5 November 2002
No seats in Congress.
Joseph McMillan, 5 November 2002
The flag is red with the initials of the party in a characteristic yellow
font along the center. The party is to the small side, but I came across a photo
showing this party flag in the edition of 11 September 2005 of the Público
newspaper. The article was about the coincidences between Karl Marx's works and
the Bible, which were the topic of a conference by the Mexican philosopher
Enrique Dussel, and the photo is an archive photo with no relation with the
conference, showing a demonstration against the ALCA.
From the flag in
the photo and the symbol in the party website - at
http://www.pstu.org.br - I estimate the
proportions of the flag as 4:7.
Regarding the party, I believe I can narrow down its ideological
characteristics. This image
http://www.pstu.org.br/imgcont/2006mar18_guerrahome.jpg shows a
demonstration against the war in Iraq where the PSTU took part, and shows the
symbol of the party and another symbol below: the symbol of the 4th
International. This means that the PSTU is a Trotskyist party.
