Romantismo e barroco
Authors: Hansen João Adolfo
Published: September 2016

A categoria “Barroco” foi utilizada dedutivamente pela primeira vez como categoria estética positiva por um autor neokantiano, Heinrich Wölfflin, em 1888. Desde então, passou-se a acreditar que “O Barroco” existiu em si, ante rem, sempre se esquecendo de que a noção de “barroco” não tem existência independente do corpus usado para defini-la.
Romantismo das trevas
Authors: Galvão Walnice Nogueira
Published: September 2016

A ruptura efetuada pelo romantismo requer apreciação de sua dupla face: a solar e a das trevas. Em atenção a essa ambivalência, um esboço das linhas mestras encaminha a seguir o exame do percurso de artistas que encarnam o ápice do romantismo solar (o francês Victor Hugo) e do romantismo das trevas (o norte-americano Edgar Allan Poe). Entre eles situa-se o inglês Byron, que partilha as duas tendências.
Romantismo brasileiro e a "musa popular do Norte"
Authors: Azevedo Sílvia Maria
Published: September 2016

Sob o influxo alemão, o culto das tradições populares no sentido da valorização do povo, da exaltação nacionalista ou humanitária do passado foi um dos traços marcantes do romantismo. Além de compactuar com a valorização das origens da nacionalidade, Franklin Távora estará empenhado em acentuar o espírito científico de suas pesquisas sobre o folclore, a exemplo das “Lendas e tradições populares do Norte”, publicadas na Ilustração Brasileira, em 1877.
As revistas literárias no romantismo francês: a ilustração

Serão, a seguir, apresentadas quatro revistas literárias que acolheram os autores do romantismo. Finalmente, será destacada a presença da ilustração.
Mujeres e Independencia en Chile. La cultura del trato y la escritura de cartas
Authors: Arcos Carol , Salome Alicia
Published: September 2016

El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar un conjunto de cambios culturales de sentido ilustrado que, en el marco de la crisis independentista, posibilitan que algunas mujeres de la élite chilena asuman un papel social activo en esta coyuntura, que desafíen las normas genérico-sexuales derivadas del orden cristiano-católico tradicional. Estas acciones, que acompañan el proyecto emancipatorio de la élite criolla, se concentran en dos esferas de agencia femenina: el desarrollo de una cultura del trato y la escritura de cartas. A través de ellas, ciertas mujeres de la élite se incorporan a la nueva sociabilidad ilustrada y revolucionaria desde iniciativas que, arraigadas en el ámbito privado, inciden en el acontecer político y, al mismo tiempo, hacen posible una reconfiguración de sus identidades y subjetividades femeninas.
A utopia concreta da poesia: "Uma árvore de veneno" de Blake
Authors: Brenkman John
Published: September 2016

O ensaio examina algumas perspectivas amplas sobre a arte que vêm da tradição do “marxismo crítico”, por meio da análise de um poema de Canções da experiência, de William Blake. A leitura deve tanto à hermenêutica e ao pós-estruturalismo quanto aos escritos estéticos da Escola de Frankfurt.
Caramuru, o mito: conquista e conciliação
Authors: Treece David
Published: September 2016

Este ensaio procura traçar a história do mito do Caramuru, considerando que as versões de Santa Rita Durão e de outros expressam atitudes diversas em relação à colonização e à nacionalidade. Fundamental para essa história é a reavaliação importante que o mito sofreu no século XIX, quando o romantismo e a ideologia liberal rejeitaram a noção de conciliação racial que se situa no centro da lenda do Caramuru.
Entre texto e contexto: a ambiguidade do romance Os brahamanes (1866), de Francisco Luís Gomes
Authors: Garmes Hélder
Published: September 2016

O presente artigo faz um recorte na crítica acerca do romance Os brahamanes (1866), de Francisco Luís Gomes (1829-69), e discute sua composição formal e ideológica. Primeiramente, apresentam-se o autor, o romance e o contexto de sua publicação, tendo em vista o pouco conhecimento que se tem da obra. Posteriormente, comentam-se os textos de alguns críticos que já se debruçaram sobre o romance. Ao final, fazem-se algumas observações sobre a forma ambígua desse romance e sobre o sentido de estudá-lo na atualidade.
A janela da esquina: E.T.A. Hoffmann, arte e prosaísmo
Authors: Volobuef Karin
Published: September 2016

E. T. A. Hoffmann produziu muitos textos que tratam da figura do artista genial e seu confronto com a sociedade burguesa na Alemanha no início do século XIX. Conforme vemos em “A janela de esquina do primo” (1822), a delicada questão da arte versus mundo remete às diferentes formas de perceber e interpretar a “realidade”, o que problematiza a própria noção de representação do real pela obra literária.
José de Alencar e a floresta do Brasil
Authors: Martins Eduardo Vieira
Published: September 2016

Tomando como ponto de partida a análise das descrições dos rios Paquequer e Paraíba, inseridas, respectivamente, na abertura e no epílogo de O guarani, este ensaio pretende discutir a técnica descritiva de José de Alencar
Machado de Assis leitor dos românticos brasileiros
Authors: Werkema Andréa Sirihal
Published: September 2016

O artigo busca reler os textos críticos em que Machado de Assis contempla alguns dos autores românticos brasileiros, de forma a averiguar a sua assimilação dos procedimentos textuais do movimento que marcou o nascimento de nossa identidade literária. Por outro lado, o trabalho busca surpreender, nesses textos, a formação e o estabelecimento de um olhar sobre o romantismo brasileiro – olhar que se perpetua em nossa crítica literária atual.
Gérard de Nerval: poesia e memória
Authors: Kawano Marta
Published: September 2016

Este artigo realiza um percurso pelo qual se busca aproximar a prosa e a poesia de Nerval. Tomando por guia as considerações de Marcel Proust a respeito de Sylvie, procuramos pontar alguns elos (ou ecos) existentes entre esta novela e o soneto “El desdichado”, em particular no que diz respeito à memória, à figuração do ideal (figura feminina ideal)e ao desencanto.
Norma e obscenidade em Gregório de Matos, Glauco Mattoso e Hilda Hilst
Authors: Hansen João Adolfo
Published: September 2016

Uma etimologia latina provavelmente falsa propõe que o termo obscaenum significa ob scaena, “fora da cena”, como o interdito que não deve ou não pode ser dado em representação. No texto Sade, mon prochain, Klossowski lembrou que o obsceno só existe num campo de normas que lhe conferem significação e sentido. Neste ensaio, vou falar de alguns valores poéticos e políticos particulares do obsceno na poesia que se atribui a Gregório de Matos e Guerra (1633-1696), e em textos de dois autores modernos, Hilda Hilst e Glauco Mattoso.
Francesas nos trópicos: a prostituta como tópica literária
Authors: Moraes Eliane Robert
Published: September 2016

No Brasil, a fabulação literária em torno da prostituta recorre com particular frequência às referências francesas. Da cortesã trágica, que aclimata a heroína de Dumas à passagem tropical oitocentista, ao primado da “francesa”, que inaugura o perfil da meretriz moderna nas letras do país, essas referências passam por deslocamentos significativos.
Euclides da Cunha: leitor de histórias e romances do século XIX
Authors: Carvalho Ricardo Souza de
Published: September 2016

Este ensaio propõe que o romance histórico e a historiografia do século XIX foram decisivos para conformar a singularidade d’Os Sertões de Euclides da Cunha. Ambos os gêneros compartilharam tanto a emoção quanto a veracidade que podem ampliar a discussão sobre a confluência entre “ciência e literatura” presente desde a publicação da obra. Enquanto o romance tornou-se um grande estímulo durante a formação de Euclides como escritor, a concepção de história como ciência e arte proposta por Taine no Essai sur Tite Live (1856) foi um paradigma para Os Sertões
Simões Lopes Neto e Guimarães Rosa: a literatura e o luto no sertão
Authors: Fischer Luís Augusto
Published: September 2016

Este pequeno estudo apresenta as linhas gerais de uma discussão que mal começa no país: uma revisão da literatura que se ocupa do mundo interiorano, aqui chamado de sertão (por motivos que são explicados logo de início),para apreciá-la em sua dimensão de luto por um mundo que progressivamente vai sendo alcançado pela lógica do mercado, da cidade, da mercadoria. No centro dessa discussão, aparecem duas figuras de enorme valor literário, o escritor gaúcho Simões Lopes Neto e o escritor mineiro Guimarães Rosa. Do primeiro se analisam as condições conjunturais de sua produção literária; a seguir, são examinadas algumas aproximações entre sua obra e a de Rosa.
Uma caixa de surpresas: nota sobre a volta do romance de 30
Authors: Bosi Alfredo
Published: September 2016

Ultrapassadas as leituras redutoras, em geral dogmáticas, a melhor crítica universitária começa a olhar de novo, e como se fosse pela primeira vez, o texto como lugar de tensões que envolvem o eu e o outro, a intuição e as coisas do mundo, o desejo e as pressões da sociedade – a caixa de surpresas que é o romance de 30 ainda está longe de ter sido cabalmente explorada
Parque industrial, romance da Pauliceia desvairada
Authors: Jackson Kenneth David
Published: September 2016

Em edição paga por Oswald de Andrade, romance de Patrícia Galvão passou quase despercebido em seu lançamento, mas hoje vem recebendo cada vez mais atenção da crítica como obra-prima do romance social urbano e um dos grandes textos perdidos do modernismo. Apoiado numa montagem visual e cinematográfica, combina, numa prosa sintética e concisa, o retrato da vida paulistana de cinco trabalhadoras do Brás com a denúncia social.
Herói fracassado: Mário de Andrade e a representação do intelectual no romance de 30
Authors: Marques Ivan
Published: September 2016

Escritores figuram como protagonistas em alguns dos principais romances da década de 30 e encarnam o tipo que Mário de Andrade, no ensaio “A elegia de abril” (1941), chamou de “fracassado nacional”. Em obras como Banguê (1934), de José Lins do Rego, e Angústia (1936), de Graciliano Ramos, Mário interpretou a presença recorrente de personagens fracos como um sintoma de que o homem brasileiro estaria “às portas de desistir de si mesmo”. Tal situação se acha bastante próxima do impasse vivido em seus últimos anos pelo próprio escritor, bem como do desfecho melancólico de sua obra de maior relevo, Macunaíma, ponto de inflexão entre as duas fases do modernismo. O ensaio pretende discutir a reiteração da temática do fracasso na literatura de 30, levando em consideração outras questões importantes do período, a saber, o debate sobre o caráter nacional, a decadência do mundo rural e a ruína do projeto modernista
A presença do amor em Vidas secas
Authors: Bueno Luís
Published: September 2016

A pergunta que precisa ser feita se se quiser compreender o amor em Vidas secas é esta: quem sabe lá como são as coisas? Quem sabe lá como se sente amor? É esse o traço essencial do amor “diferente” que se vê na obra de Graciliano Ramos: por se constituir no conjunto amplo das preocupações, frustrações e anseios das personagens, ele repele a ideia de uma pureza essencial do indivíduo
Dalcídio Jurandir e o romance de 30 ou um autor de 30 publicado em 40
Authors: Furtado Marlí Tereza
Published: September 2016

O texto visa a discutir o alinhamento do romancista marajoara Dalcídio Jurandir junto a autores consagrados pelo cânone como representantes do romance da década de 30, na literatura brasileira. Considera-se, sobretudo, o caráter intimista de suas obras iniciais, principalmente Chove nos campos de Cachoeira e Marajó, escritas em 30, mas publicadas em 40, para demonstrar que ao autor não cabe apenas no enquadramento de autor regionalista
Pormenor e dissipação: o Brasil de Cornélio Penna
Authors: Rufinoni Simone Rossinetti
Published: September 2016

O artigo analisa algumas características do romance Fronteira, de Cornélio Penna – traços da prosa introspectiva, o espaço da casa, o uso do pormenor, o erotismo e a presença da atmosfera nebulosa, entre outros –, articulando-as a uma apreensão estética da decadência da sociedade patriarcal, no sentido de uma possível leitura de país
Effect Before Cause
Authors: Szcześniak Konrad
Published: September 2016

In the present study, I look at a regularity first observed in Talmy (2000: 483), who showed that in sentences describing sequences of events of the cause-and-effect type, effect events take precedence over causes. They tend to be mentioned first in a sentence, and grammatical patterns exist where cause events cannot be expressed before effects. I use Talmy’s observation to argue against an excessive emphasis on idiosyncrasy of grammatical constructions. Specifically, I will show that the effect-over-cause precedence visible at sentence level, applies especially well, on a smaller scale, to clauses, constraining the range of forms that constructions can take. Thus, the form of constructions is determined by factors like viable arrangements of events within a clause and the metaphoric grounding of meanings that a given construction conveys. Such constraints result in striking convergences between constructions in different languages.
The genus Isoetes (Isoetaceae): a provisional checklist of the accepted and unresolved taxa
Authors: TROIA ANGELO , PEREIRA JOVANI B. , KIM CHANGKYUN , TAYLOR W. CARL
Published: September 2016

Isoetes is a widely distributed lycophyte genus of at least 200 species occurring in diverse habitats. The species can be difficult to identify because Isoetes, with its apparent simplicity of form and conserved morphology, provides few diagnostic features to reliably distinguish its species. The last worldwide monograph, published nearly a century ago, listed 77 taxa. The first step in producing a flora or monograph of all known species of a genus is to compile a list of the acceptable species names. The list presented here is a compilation of 192 accepted names representing taxa from regions around the world: chromosome numbers were assigned to 101 of them, with polyploidy settled on 46.7%. Distribution mapping of the accepted species indicates that South America is the center of diversity for Isoetes and species diversity is the highest in temperate regions. Many of the species on this list are rare and have limited ranges. The list of taxa can be used to initiate floristic studies and conservation efforts in keeping with the target goals of the Global Strategy for Plant Conservation.

A new species of Neotanais Beddard (Crustacea: Tanaidacea) from the Subantartctic, off the Falkland Islands
Authors: LARSEN KIM , BLAZEWICZ-PASZKWYCZ MAGDALENA
Published: September 2016

The male and female of Neotanais krappschickelae n.sp., from the Subantarctic off the Falkland Islands are described from the RV Eltanin deep-water cruises of 1962. Both male and female of the new species can be separated from other species by the combination of characters including: a densely setose dorsal margin of the cheliped carpus, dactylus and fixed finger of subequal length; cheliped sclerite, all pereopodal bases, and posterior-lateral edges of pereonites with numerous plumose setae. The recent activity within tanaidacean taxonomy including neotanaid taxonomy has made it necessary to re-diagnose Neotanais.
A new genus and two new species of congrid eels (Teleostei: Anguilliformes: Congridae) from the Indo-West Pacific, with a redescription and osteology of Chiloconger dentatus
Authors: SMITH DAVID G. , KARMOVSKAYA EMMA S.
Published: September 2016

A new genus and two new species of congrid eels, subfamily Bathymyrinae, are described from the western Indian Ocean and the western Pacific. Kenyaconger gen. nov. differs from all other congrids in having a tubular posterior nostril, opening on the edge of the upper lip behind the labial flange. Kenyaconger heemstrai sp. nov., the only species in the genus, is described from a single specimen collected off the coast of Kenya in the western Indian Ocean. Chiloconger philippinensis sp. nov. is described from the Philippines, the first record of the genus outside the eastern Pacific. It differs from Chiloconger dentatus (Garman, 1899) in several meristic and morphometric characters. Chiloconger dentatus is redescribed from additional material and its osteology is described for the first time. Chiloconger similis Wade, 1946 is reassigned to Paraconger Kanazawa.

Menacanthus bonariensis new species (Phthiraptera: Menoponidae), parasitic on the White-bellied Sparrow, Zonotrichia capensishypoleuca (Todd, 1915) (Aves: Passeriformes: Fringillidae) in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina
Authors: CICCHINO ARMANDO C.
Published: September 2016

The new species Menacanthus bonariensis is described and illustrated from specimens collected off Zonotrichia capensis hypoleuca (Todd, 1915) from coastal areas in the NE of Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Morphologically the new species is close to M. robustus (Kellogg, 1896), but with larger females, longer ocular seta 19 and ventral spinous processes, greater number of setae on certain tergites and sternites, and fewer setae in the subgenital plate. Descriptions of the male, the three nymphal instars and the egg are also included, with comments on prevalence and spatial relationship with other species of lice of the genera Philopterus Nitzsch, 1818, Ricinus De Geer, 1778 and Machaerilaemus Harrison, 1916, which are found on this host in different populations of the geographical area mentioned above.
A new viviparous species of asterinid (Echinodermata, Asteroidea,Asterinidae) and a new genus to accommodate the species of pantropical exiguoid sea stars
Authors: DARTNALL ALAN J. , BYRNE MARIA , COLLINS JOHN , HART MICHAEL W.
Published: September 2016

This paper describes a new species of viviparous, intragonadal brooder of asterinid sea star and clarifies the identities of Patiriella pseudoexigua Dartnall 1971, the species Patiriella pseudoexigua sensu Chen and Chen (1992) and Patiriella pseudoexigua pacifica (Hayashi, 1977). The latter is raised to specific rank. Analysis of mitochondrial DNA supports the concept of a pan-tropical assemblage of species for which a new genus, Cryptasterina, is created. All species in Cryptasterina are morphologically similar and comprise species with planktonic, lecithotrophic, non-feeding larvae, and viviparous outlier species with limited distributions. The full diversity of this species diaspora remains to be resolved.

Two new species of Cyrtodactylus (Reptilia: Squamata: Gekkonidae) from Thailand
Authors: BAUER AARON M. , SUMONTHA MONTRI , PAUWELS OLIVIER S.G.
Published: September 2016

Two new species of the gekkonid lizard genus Cyrtodactylus Gray, C. tigroides, sp. nov. and C. chanhomeae, sp. nov. are described on the basis of material collected in Kanchanaburi and Saraburi provinces, bringing the number of species of this genus in Thailand to 14. Both species have relatively slender bodies and elongate tails, limbs and digits. They differ significantly, however, with respect to precloacal and femoral pore arrangement and color pattern. They share a common habitus with the recently described C. sumonthai Bauer et al., which may reflect a close relationship or a similar limestone outcrop and cave dwelling ecology.
Molecular confirmation of Anopheles (Anopheles) lesteri from the Republic of South Korea and its genetic identity with An. (Ano.) anthropophagus from China (Diptera: Culicidae)
Authors: WILKERSON RICHARD C. , LI CONG , RUEDA LEOPOLDO M. , KIM HEUNG– CHUL , KLEIN TERRY A. , SONG GUAN–HONG , STRICKMAN DANIEL
Published: September 2016

Recent malaria transmission in The Republic of Korea led to a search for the identity of the possible vectors. The Anopheles fauna of South Korea is presently considered to consist of six species: Anopheles (Anopheles) sinensis, An. (Ano.) lesteri, An. (Ano.) pullus, An. (Ano.) sineroides, An. (Ano.) lindesayi japonicus, and An. (Ano.) koreicus, of which only the former three are considered potential vectors. Based on a combination of published and newly generated rDNA ITS2 sequence we found that An. lesteri from South Korea, An. anthropophagus from Jiangsu Province, China, and An. lesteri from near the type locality in Laguna Province, in the Philippines, are indistinguishable. Also, a species reported in GenBank as An. lesteri from Shandong Province, China, is the same as an unnamed species also discovered by us in South Korea. The above are compared to An. sinensis from South Korea and the type locality in China. These data indicate that An. anthropophagus, an important malaria vector in China, is actually An. lesteri. We therefore place An. anthropophagus in synonymy with An. lesteri. In addition, based on Korean specimens, An. yatsushiroensis was recently synonymized under An. pullus. We are in agreement with the conclusion that Korean specimens that have morphological attributes previously thought to differentiate these two species are actually just highly variable characters of a single species. However, genetic comparison to specimens from the type locality of An. yatsushiroensis, Yatsushiro City, Japan, is still needed to rule out the possibility that this is a valid species.
Botia kubotai, a new species of loach (Teleostei: Cobitidae) from the Ataran River basin (Myanmar), with comments on botiine nomenclature and diagnosis of a new genus
Authors: KOTTELAT MAURICE
Published: September 2016

Botia kubotai, new species, is distinguished from all other species of the genus by its unique body colour pattern. In juveniles, three black stripes and five black bars leave four pairs of elongate yellow blotches; with increasing age, the bars and stripes widen, the yellow blotches become more slender and rows of small yellow spots are added in the stripes and in the bars. The nomenclature of Botiinae and the systematics of the South and Southeast Asian taxa are discussed. A new genus is named: Chromobotia (type species: Cobitis macracanthus). Hymenphysa is a synonym of Botia and species usually placed in Hymenphysa should be called Syncrossus.
Dermatopelte Erd s & Novicky (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) newly recorded from the Nearctic region, with description of two new species
Authors: BURKS ROGER A.
Published: September 2016

The eulophid genus Dermatopelte is reported from the Nearctic region for the first time, represented by two new species, Dermatopelte yanegai n. sp. and D. sinaloensis n. sp. The new species are compared with Dermatopelte budensis, the only valid species previously included in the genus, and the genus is compared with similar genera in the Eulophini.
The description of Preseucoela Buffington, new genus, with notes on the status of Nearctic species of Agrostocynips Diaz (Hymenoptera: Figitidae: Eucoilinae)
Authors: BUFFINGTON MATTHEW L.
Published: September 2016

The eucoiline genus Preseucoela Buffington is described. Also provided is a redescription of Preseucoela pallidipes (Ashmead), new combination, and the descriptions of Preseucoela heratyi Buffington, new species, and Preseucoela imallshookupis Buffington new species. One definitive rearing record was found, and indicates hosts for species of Preseucoela are agromyzid flies. Agrostocynips Diaz, another eucoiline genus parasitic on agromyzids, is discussed. Agrostocynips robusta (Ashmead), new combination, and Agrostocynips diastrophi (Ashmead), new combina- tion, are proposed, raising the number of recognized species of Agrostocynips to four, and expanding the range of Agrostocynips into central North America.
Redefinition of genus Tarasco Marsh (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Doryctinae) and description of two new Brazilian species
Authors: BARBALHO SANDRA M. , SCATOLINI DENISE , PENTEADODIAS ANGÉLICA M.
Published: September 2016

A redefinition of the genus Tarasco Marsh is provided along with description of two new species found in Brazil (T. granulata Barbalho and Penteado-Dias, new species and T. costata Barbalho and Scatolini, new species). This redefinition of the genus considers variation in characters in wing venation, such as the presence of vein r-m in the fore wing and vein 1-SC+R being complete and tubular in the hind wing.
Morphology and COI barcodes reveal four new species in the lycieus group of Calisto (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae, Satyrinae)
Authors: PÉREZ-ASSO ANTONIO R. , NÚÑEZ-AGUILA RAYNER , GENARO JULIO A.
Published: September 2016

The predominantly Greater Antillean endemic genus Calisto Hübner, 1823 is highly diversified on several islands being more species rich on Hispaniola. We conducted expeditions during five years in the Dominican Republic resulting in new findings related with lyceius species group. Material belonging to this group was examined following the traditional morphological characters employed in genus taxonomy, and the COI barcode sequences obtained were analyzed through different approaches: Neighbor Joining clustering, ABGD, Maximum Likelihood (ML), and Bayesian Inference (BI). Analysis yielded 12 groups representing putative species: eight corresponding to previously named ones and four new species which are described in the present work: C. mariposa sp. nov., C. azua sp. nov., C. victori sp. nov., and C. samana sp. nov. The results also confirmed a single taxonomic entity within C. pulchella Lathy and the conspecific nature of C. franciscoi Gali and C. hendersoni. A dichotomic key for identification of species within the group is also given. Both phylogenetic reconstruction methods (ML and BI) employing molecular data achieved similar results with the relationships among the majority of taxa being supported by some ecological and morphological features. The exceptions were C. zangis Fabricius, C. raburni Gali, and C. pulchella, grouped together in a weakly supported clade. These species possess a highly differentiated adult and immature morphology which indicates an earlier divergence.
A new species of Foleyellides (Nematoda: Onchocercidae) parasite of Lithobates spp. (Amphibia: Ranidae) from Mexico with a key for the species of the genus
Authors: ROMERO-MAYÉN ANGELES R. , LEÓN-RÈGAGNON VIRGINIA
Published: September 2016

Thirty-six Foleyellides mayenae n. sp. were recovered from the body cavity of Lithobates psilonota (Webb, 2001) and L. pustulosus (Boulenger, 1883) (Ranidae) from Jalisco and Nayarit, respectively. Foleyellides mayenae is the eleventh species described for the genus and the third for Mexican amphibians; it differs from the other species of the genus by the following combined characters: five pairs of caudal papillae, 1 pre-anal, 1 adanal and 3 post-cloacal, and the absence of a preanal plaque.
Review of subterranean Quedius, with description of the first hypogean species from the Russian Far East (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Staphylinini)
Authors: SOLODOVNIKOV ALEXEY , HANSEN ASLAK KAPPEL
Published: September 2016

Hypogean species of Quedius, one of the largest North Hemisphere beetle genera, are reviewed in connection with the discovery of a new peculiar, brachypterous and microphtalmous species from the subgenus Microsaurus in the talus-based microhabitats of the Russian Far East. Morphology of that species here described as Quedius roma sp. n. suggests its affinity with the przewalskii-group from China and Nepal. Affinity of Q. roma to the abnormalis-group, a geographically more proximate and species-rich and presumably non-monophyletic assemblage of hypogean species from Japan and Taiwan, or to any other Holarctic Microsaurus is not supported morphologically. Two hypogean species from Europe, Q. bernhaueri Rambousek, 1915 and Q. doderoi Gridelli, 1922, are transferred from the subgenus Microsaurus to the subgenus Raphirus. The name Tenebrobius Rambousek, 1915, a subgenus where Q. bernhaueri was originally described, becomes a junior synonym of Raphirus Stephens, 1829.

At present, the genus Amolops contains 51 species, of which 23 occur in China.
Contributions to the knowledge of the biodiversity of Heteroptera (Insecta) in the Southern Cone, Argentina
Authors: PALL JOSÉ LUIS , COSCARÓN MARÍA DEL CARMEN
Published: September 2016

Insect studies for different regions are scarce as most of the material is collected in isolation, thus preventing extensive taxonomic listings. Conducting inventories of terrestrial biodiversity in a specific area is an arduous task, with many obstacles: mainly the lack of data on taxonomic and geographical distribution necessary to study them. The aim of this work is to present new contributions to the geographical distribution of Heteroptera in the Pampean, Espinal and Monte phytogeographic provinces, in the central region of Argentina, Southern Cone. Ten samples were taken, using the following methods, beating sheet, light trap and G-Vac (garden-vacuum). Each point within the site was sampled by each type of trap for one minute, leading to a total of 10 minutes per capture method in each site, except the light tramp. Twenty-two species are recorded for the first time in the central region of Argentina, Southern Cone.
Notes on the taxonomy of Potamonautes obesus (A Milne-Edwards, 1868) and Potamonautes calcaratus (Gordon, 1929) (Brachyura: Potamoidea: Potamonautidae) from eastern and southern Africa
Authors: REED SADIE K. , CUMBERLIDGE NEIL
Published: September 2016

The East African freshwater crab Potamonautes obesus (A Milne-Edwards, 1868) (family Potamonautidae) is redescribed from a large series of specimens from Tanzania and Somalia, and Potamon (Potamonautes) bottegoi de Man, 1898 is judged to be a junior objective synonym of P. obesus. The related taxon, Potamonautes calcaratus (Gordon, 1929) from Mozambique and South Africa, is recognised here as a valid species and is redescribed from type material. The distributions of P. obesus and P. calcaratus are described and discussed.

A reappraisal of the hermit crab genera Catapagurus A. Milne-Edwards and Hemipagurus Smith (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura: Paguridae), with the description of a new species
Authors: MCLAUGHLIN PATSY A.
Published: September 2016

The discovery of a new species from the waters of eastern Australia and New Caledonia has required a reassessment of the merit of the reinstatement of the hermit crab genus Hemipagurus Smith, 1881. Reappraisal of all characters ascribed to both Catapagurus A. Milne-Edwards, 1880 and Hemipagurus, in light of the attributes of Catapagurus franklinae n. sp., has demonstrated unequivocally that there is no justification for the resurrection of Hemipagurus. Consequently, this genus is once again relegated to the status of junior synonym of Catapagurus, and all of the species reassigned to or recently described in the genus Hemipagurus are returned to, or transferred to, Catapagurus. Catapagurus spinicarpus de Saint Laurent & McLaughlin, 2000, and C. danida McLaughlin, 2002, two species not considered in the recent revision, are compared to their closest congeners, as is the new species.
Revision of the Neotropical caddisfly genus Banyallarga (Trichoptera: Calamoceratidae)
Authors: PRATHER AYSHA L.
Published: September 2016

Systematics of the genus Banyallarga are reviewed. Illustrations, a generic diagnosis, and descriptions are provided for males and females. A new subgenus, Histricoverpa, is recognized. Nine previously described species are recognized: Banyallarga (Banyallarga) argentinica Flint, B. (B.) columbiana (Nav s), B. (B.) loxana (Nav s), B. (B.) vicaria (Walker) B. (B.) villosa (Nav s), B. (B.) yungensis Flint, B. (Histricoverpa) acutiterga (Denning and Hogue), B. (H.) fortuna (Resh), and B. (H.) mollicula (McLachlan). Eight species are described as new: B. (B.) penai (Peru), B. (H.) echinata (Peru), B. (H.) mexicana (Mexico), B. (H.) nica (Nicaragua), B. (H.) quincemil (Peru), B. (H.) sanchezi (Colombia), B. (H.) sylvana (Costa Rica, Nicaragua), and B. (H.) tapanti (Costa Rica). Banyallarga testacea is designated a synonym of B. (B.) vicaria and a neotype of B. testacea is designated to clarify the identity of the genus. The genus Loxinum, formerly considered a synonym of Banyallarga, is designated a synonym of Chimarrhodella (Philopotamidae).
Geophagus abalios, G. dicrozoster and G. winemilleri (Perciformes: Cichlidae), three new species from Venezuela
Authors: LÓPEZ-FERNÁNDEZ HERNÁN , TAPHORN DONALD C.
Published: September 2016

We describe three new species of Geophagus from the Orinoco and Casiquiare drainages of Venezuela, bringing the total number of described species in the genus to fourteen, and of Venezuelan species to six. All three species are distinguished from G. grammepareius, G. taeniopareius, G. argyrostictus and G. harreri by lacking an infraorbital stripe, which is either reduced to a preopercular mark or is absent. Geophagus abalios n. sp. reaches at least 163 mm SL; it is distinguished from G. dicrozoster n. sp., G. winemilleri n. sp., G. brachybranchus and G. proximus by lacking a preopercular mark. It can be further distinguished from the widely sympatric G. dicrozoster n. sp. by the squamation pattern, and upper jaw teeth arrangement. Preserved specimens of Geophagus abalios are distinguished from other Geophagus species without head markings except G. brokopondo by six vertical, parallel bars on the flank; it is distinguished from G. brokopondo by the anterior three bars, which are dorso-ventrally bisected by a clearer area, giving the impression of two thinner bars, whereas in the latter species all bars are solid; additionally, the sixth bar in G. abalios is elongate and restricted to the dorsal half of the caudal peduncle, above the lower lateral line, and in G. brokopondo the bar covers the entire caudal peduncle. Geophagus abalios is present in the llanos of the Orinoco drainage, reaching the Andean piedmont, the R o Caura in the Guyana Shield, and the higher Orinoco and Casiquiare drainages in Amazonas State. G. dicrozoster n. sp. and G. winemilleri n. sp. bear a preopercular mark, which distinguishes them from G. abalios n. sp., G. brokopondo, G. surinamensis, G. megasema, G. camopiensis, and G. altifrons, which lack head markings. G. dicrozoster n. sp. reaches at least 202 mm SL; preserved specimens are distinguished from other species with a preopercular mark by seven vertical, parallel lateral bars. The species is present in black water tributaries of the Orinoco in the Guyana Shield, and its middle and upper course, as well as in the Casiquiare and the headwaters of the R o Negro. G. winemilleri n. sp. reaches a maximum known size of 195 mm SL; preserved specimens are distinguished from other species with a preopercular mark by four broad, ventro-caudally inclined bars on the flank, plus a fainter bar on the dorsal portion of the caudal peduncle. G. winemilleri is described from the lower Casiquiaredrainage and the headwaters of the R o Negro in southern Venezuela, but may be distributed along the length of the R o Negro.

The first troglomorphic species of the millipede genus Paracortina Wang & Zhang, 1993 from south Yunnan, China (Diplopoda: Callipodida: Paracortinidae)
Authors: STOEV PAVEL
Published: September 2016

Paracortina wangi sp. n. (Callipodida: Paracortinidae) is described from two caves in the karst plateau of Mengzi, Yunnan Province, China. It is the first troglomorphic species described in the family, the congeners being known exclusively from epigean habitats. The status of the family is briefly discussed in the light of the new finding. Though originally assigned to Schizopetalidae, Scotopetalum warreni Shear, 2000, a paracortinid-like millipede from caves in Vietnam, might also prove to belong to the Paracortinidae. Some aspects of the phylogenetic analysis of Wang (1996) are criticised.

Stephanostomum tantabiddii n. sp. (Digenea: Acanthocolpidae) from Carangoides fulvoguttatus (Forsskal, 1775) (Perciformes: Carangidae) from Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia
Authors: BRAY RODNEY A. , CRIBB THOMAS H.
Published: September 2016

A new species, Stephanostomum tantabiddii n. sp., is described from the yellowspotted trevally Carangoides fulvoguttatus from Ningaloo Reef, Western Australia. It has 38 45 circum-oral spines and the vitellarium reaches to no less than 17% of the hindbody length from the ventral sucker. It differs from other species of Stephanostomum with these characteristics by various combinations of the ventral hiatus of the circum-oral spine rows, the relatively long pars prostatica and short ejaculatory duct, the elongate body and the wide gaps between the gonads.
A review of the gobiid genus Akko (Teleostei: Gobiidae) with description of a new species
Authors: VAN TASSELL JAMES L. , BALDWIN CAROLE C.
Published: September 2016

Akko was originally described for a highly autapomorphic species of goby, A. dionaea, taken off Brazil. The genus is here recorded for the first time from the eastern Pacific Ocean. The poorly known eastern Pacific goby Amblyopus brevis G nther is redescribed as Akko brevis based on the study of numerous specimens recently collected off Panama and El Salvador, and Akko rossi is described as new from the coast of El Salvador. Akko dionaea has 11+16 vertebrae, 76 scales in the lateral series, non-overlapping scales on the caudal peduncle, and no melanophores on the pectoral fin or female genital papilla; A. brevis has 11+16 vertebrae, 53 60 scales in the lateral series, overlapping scales on the caudal peduncle, and no melanophores on the pectoral fin or female genital papilla; A. rossi has 11+17 vertebrae, 115 scales in the lateral series, overlapping scales on the caudal peduncle, and dense melanophores on the pectoral fin and female genital papilla.
Redescription of the type of Siphlonurus davidi (Nav s, 1932) (Ephemeroptera: Siphlonuridae)
Authors: SARTORI MICHEL , PETERS JANICE G.
Published: September 2016

The type specimen of Siphlonurus davidi (Nav s, 1932, sub. nom. Siphluriscus ? davidi), a male subimago deposited in the Paris Museum, is redescribed. Based on the entire male styliger plate, a hind wing shorter than the length of the forewing, and the distal position of vein MA of the hind wing, the present placement in Siphlonurus is considered valid pending discovery of other stages. Siphlonurus davidi will key to S. palearcticus and S. binotatus in recent keys from which it is distinguished by the greater width of the hind wing and the absence of prolonged projections on terga 8 and 9.

Tanaidacea (Crustacea) of the Northeast Atlantic: non-filiform species of Anarthruridae Lang from the Atlantic Margin
Authors: BIRD GRAHAM
Published: September 2016

Anarthrurid tanaidaceans are common in the bathyal zone west of the British Isles and their identification has been difficult. The complex history of the taxonomy and classification of the Family Anarthruridae Lang is summarised and H.J. Hansen s Leptognathia group d from the Ingolf expeditions is transferred to the Anarthruridae. Three known species are re-described (Anarthrurasimplex, Leptognathia latiremis, and L. glacialis). In addition, five new genera are erected and five new species described. A key to their identification is given. Zoogeographic patterns indicate a cold-water fauna north of the Faeroes and Iceland and a separate Atlantic Deep Sea fauna along the Hebrides-Porcupine-Biscay slope.
