Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare disease that is characterised by recurrent episodes of angioedema in absence of urticaria or pruritus. It usually affects skin and the mucosa of the upper respiratory tract and the gastrointestinal tracts. It is usually a self-limited disease and resolves without treatment in a few days, although fatal asphyxiation may occur due to laryngeal involvement. The rarity, severity of the presentation and the need for appropriate treatment made a special interest to the clinicians for the disease. Early diagnosis can enable the attending physicians to administer an appropriate treatment to rescue the life of the patient. Our case is a 21-year medical student presented with several occasions of attack of angioedema involving lips, eyelids, and face since her 12 years of age. Lack of appropriate diagnostic facilities made the diagnosis of her disease delayed.
CREATIVE FAILURE OR SPECIFIC GENRE: ON THE CONTROVERSY OF THE NOVEL “ASAN” BY V. MAKANIN
Authors: Лю Чжихуа , Маркина Полина Владимировна
Published: July 2022

Вокруг романа «Асан» В. Маканина разгорелась полемика со дня публикации текста, в котором явлены две инонациональные сферы. До сих пор споры об этапном произведении писателя современной русской литературы не утихают, исследователя ждет еще много загадок в романе, который не приняли два противоположных мира. Актуальность настоящего исследования обусловлена прочтением творчества В. Маканина с точки зрения моделируемой самим автором теории особого жанра с позиций современных достижений в филологической науке. Материалом для исследования послужили художественные и публицистические тексты В. Маканина. В работе использованы описательный метод, методы контекстуального анализа и сравнения. В статье говорится о том, что в основе прочтения текста должен лежать прицел на авторский замысел специфического жанра «романа-рифмы», чтение без учета этого компонента ведет к искажению понимания текста, особой его примитивизации и, как следствие, обвинениям в посредственности. В настоящем исследовании рассматривается диалектика внутрилитературных факторов, роман В. Маканина анализируется в аспекте творческой неудачи, с позиций креативного потенциала «неуспешного» текста. В работе предпринята попытка проанализировать образную и жанровую структуру рассматриваемого произведения с позиций исторической и теоретической поэтик с привлечением научного аппарата постструктуралистских концепций.

A heated controversy has flared up about the novel -Asan‖ by V. Makanin since the publication of the text, in which two foreign spheres are revealed. Until now, the debate about the landmark work of the writer of modern Russian literature has not subsided; there are still many mysteries in the novel, which was not accepted by two opposing worlds. The relevance of this study is due to the interpretation of V. Makanin‘s oeuvre in light of the theory of a specific genre modeled by the author from the standpoint of modern achievements in philological science. The material for the analysis is artistic and publicistic texts by V. Makanin. The descriptive method and method of contextual analysis and comparison are employed in the work. This article reveals that when reading the text, it is necessary to bear in mind the author‘s idea of a specific genre of -novel-rhyme‖. And ignoring this idea leads to a distortion of understanding of the text and its particular primitivization and, as a result, mediocrity accusations. The article examines the dialectic of internal literary factors. V. Makanin‘s novel is analyzed in the aspect of creative failure, from the standpoint of creative potential of the -unsuccessful‖ text. This article attempts to analyze the figurative and genre structure of the novel under consideration from the point of view of historical and theoretical poetics with the involvement of the scientific apparatus of poststructuralist concepts.
POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES DERIVED FROM ZOONYMS: QUALITATIVE COMPONENT OF SEMANTICS AND STANDARD
Authors: Михеева Светлана Львовна
Published: July 2022

Настоящее исследование посвящено анализу притяжательных имен прилагательных, образованных от названий живых существ - в данном случае зоонимов, с точки зрения трансформации посессивной семантики в квалитативную. Целью работы является выявление переходных зон, которые возникают в ходе семантической трансформации, а также условий реализации качественной семантики у притяжательных прилагательных. Актуальность темы настоящего исследования определяется ее вхождением в проблематику межкатегориального взаимодействия языковых единиц, связанного с взаимовлиянием лексической и грамматической семантики. Материалом для исследования послужили словарные данные, иллюстративные фрагменты из художественных текстов XX-XXI вв. В работе применяется комплекс лингвистических методов анализа: семантический, компонентный, контекстуальный анализ. Выявлено, что качественное значение притяжательных адъективов обнаруживается в их сочетаемости с существительными. В прямом значении сочетаемость обусловлена характером субстантива - названием части тела живого существа, места его обитания, характерных способов поведения и обусловленных этим качеств. В последнем случае происходит семантическая трансформация, результатом которой является метафоризация значения притяжательного адъектива. Качественное значение притяжательного прилагательного находит полное воплощение при вхождении соответствующего словосочетания в однородный ряд с другими оборотами с качественно характеризующей семантикой.

The present study is devoted to the analysis of possessive adjectives formed from the names of living beings - in this case, zoonyms - from the point of view of the transformation of possessive semantics into qualitative. The aim of the work is to identify the transition zones that arise during semantic transformation, as well as the conditions for the implementation of qualitative semantics in possessive adjectives. The relevance of this study is due to its being the problem of the inter-categorical interaction of linguistic units associated with the interaction of lexical and grammatical semantics. The material for the study was dictionary data, illustrative fragments from the literary texts of the 20th - 21st centuries. The work employs a set of linguistic methods of analysis such as semantic, component, contextual analysis. It is revealed that the qualitative meaning of possessive adjectives is found in their compatibility with nouns. In a direct sense, compatibility is due to the nature of the substantive - the name of a part of the body of a living being, its habitat, characteristic behaviors and the qualities caused by this. In the latter case, a semantic transformation occurs, the result of which is a metaphorization of the meaning of the possessive adjective. The qualitative meaning of the possessive adjective finds its full embodiment when the corresponding phrase enters into a homogeneous series with other word combinations with qualitatively characterizing semantics.
PREVENTING FIRST LANGUAGE ATTRITION IN THE SPEECH OF BILINGUALS AND WAYS TO PROMOTE RETENTION (THE LANGUAGE APP PROJECT)
Authors: Рубакова Инна Игоревна , Васько Алина Олеговна
Published: July 2022

Целью данного исследования является изучение структурных и функциональных особенностей примеров переключения и смешения кодов в устной речи билингвов, проживающих в иноязычной среде длительное время (от трех лет). Переключение кодов является не дефектом языковой личности, а следствием билингвизма говорящего. Однако слишком частое использование неосознанного переключения на другой код может говорить о проявлении начальной стадии языковой аттриции матричного языка. В настоящей работе исследуются причины возникновения и последствия влияния языковой аттриции, а также связь между переключением кодов и аттрицией матричного языка. Изучение процесса влияния языковой аттриции является важной частью лингвистики как науки. Данные настоящего исследования были получены в результате проведенного опроса, целью которого было осознание границы между позитивным использованием смешения кодов и негативным проявлением языковой аттриции. Кроме того, в настоящей статье рассматриваются методы, которые могут значительно улучшить общение между людьми, преодолевающими языковую аттрицию. Основное внимание уделяется методам обучения иностранным языкам, которые используются в цифровом образовании с целью развития языковой личности. Обращение к концепции игровых технологий позволяет создать проект лингвотренажера, который может помочь билингвам, страдающим от языковой аттриции.

This research aims to explore structural and functional features of examples of code-switching and code-mixing in the speech of bilinguals who have been living in a foreign language environment for a long time (for over three years). Code-switching is not a defect of linguistic personality since it is a consequence of the speaker’s bilingualism. However, too frequent unconscious use of code-mixing may be the beginning of the appearance of first language attrition. This study investigates the causes and effects of language attrition influence, as well as the connection between code-blending and first language attrition. Understanding the influence of language attrition is an important endeavor for the field of linguistics, and the accomplishment that can aid people in many ways. The data was obtained as a result of the conducted survey that was aimed to realize the boundary between usage of code-blending and suffering from language attrition. Also, this article addresses the methods which can significantly improve the communication between people who struggle with language attrition. It focuses on the methods of teaching foreign languages which are used in digital education to develop the linguistic personality. Appealing to the concept of gaming technology allows to create and use the language app project that can help people who suffer from first language attrition.
THE CONTENT CHANGE OF THE CONCEPT “TRADITION” UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF MODERN CONDITIONS
Authors: Суханова Ирина Григорьевна
Published: July 2022

Развитие современного общества оказывает существенное влияние на мировосприятие человека, в связи с чем изучение процессов изменения содержания концепта “traditionˮ в современной британской лингвокультуре представляется необходимым и актуальным. В качестве материала исследования использовались лексикографические данные современных английских электронных словарей и текст пьесы Майка Бартлетта “King Charles III”, что позволило провести семантический анализ лексемы tradition как имени концепта и концептуальный анализ контекстов, в которых актуализируется содержание указанного концепта. Использование текста пьесы как материала для осуществления контекстуального анализа оказалось наиболее подходящим, поскольку позволило не только исследовать языковые данные и изучить речевое поведение говорящих, но и проанализировать современное состояние языковой репрезентации концепта “traditionˮ. Применение метода анализа словарных дефиниций, целенаправленной выборки, описательного метода, методов семантического и контекстуального анализа позволило прийти к выводу, что традиция не всегда ассоциируется с анахронизмом, стагнацией. Как устоявшаяся система ценностей, традиция становится гарантом стабильности, что и есть основа развития. И если изначально основными аспектами содержания концепта “traditionˮ считались вера, норма поведения, устои и нормы, принятые в обществе, то вследствие влияния современных тенденций в его содержательную структуру включаются также стабильность и безопасность.

The development of modern society has a significant impact on the worldview of a person. The study of the concept “traditionˮ and the ways its content is changing under the influence of the modern British culture seems necessary and relevant. To carry out the semantic analysis of the lexeme tradition, lexicographic data of modern English electronic dictionaries was used. To analyze the contexts in which the content of the concept “traditionˮ was represented, we used the text of Mike Bartlett’s play “King Charles III”. The use of the text of a play for the contextual analysis turned out to be the most appropriate, as it made it possible to explore not only linguistic data but also to analyze the current state of the linguistic representation of the concept. The application of the method of analysis of dictionary definitions, sampling method, descriptive technique, methods of semantic and contextual analysis led to the conclusion that tradition is not always associated with anachronism and stagnation. As an established system of values, tradition alsoguarantees stability, which is the basis for further development. Though initially the main content aspects of the concept “traditionˮ were faith, foundations and behavior norms accepted in the society, due to the influence of modern trends in the British society the concept “tradition” is more and more associated with stability and security.
PROBLEM OF CAREER GUIDANCE OF SCHOOLCHILDREN: FOREIGN EXPERIENCE
Authors: Галинская Татьяна Николаевна , Хромова Екатерина Владимировна
Published: July 2022

Статья посвящена сравнительному анализу систем профессиональной ориентации в школах Европы, Азии и Америки с целью разработки рекомендаций по организации профориентации в российской средней школе с учетом передового опыта зарубежных стран. Выявленные тенденции (обязательность профориентации в рамках образовательной программы, наличие возможности у подростков попробовать себя в той или иной сфере профессиональной деятельности, оформление индивидуального портфолио каждым обучающимся) обусловливают успешное формирование у подростков способности сделать осознанный выбор будущей профессии. Особое внимание в зарубежном образовании уделяется формированию у подростков самостоятельности и умению объективно оценивать себя, что является важным качеством личности, обеспечивающим ее адекватное поведение в меняющихся условиях. Учитывая прогрессивный опыт, описанный в зарубежных исследованиях последнего десятилетия, авторы формулируют следующие рекомендации по организации профориентационной работы в российской школе. Во-первых, реализация профориентации в рамках специального обязательного предмета уже на этапе основного общего образования. Во-вторых, на уроке профконсультант должен научить подростка определять род занятия в соответствии со своими возможностями, изучать современный рынок труда в сопоставлении со своим внутренним потенциалом, а также обеспечить ему возможность «примерять» на себя различные профессии с обязательным самоанализом результатов «примерки».

The article is devoted to a comparative analysis of career guidance systems in schools of Europe, Asia and America in order to develop recommendations for the organization of vocational guidance in Russian secondary schools, taking into account the best practices of foreign countries. The identified trends (mandatory career guidance within the framework of the educational program, the opportunity for adolescents to try out different professions, individual portfolios) help adolescents to make a deliberate choice of a future profession. Foreign education is particularly aimed at the formation of independence and the ability to objectively evaluate oneself, which is an important quality of a person that ensures their appropriate behavior in changing conditions. Taking into account the progressive experience described in foreign studies of the last decade, the authors formulate the following recommendations for the organization of career guidance in Russian schools. Firstly, the implementation of career guidance within the framework of a special compulsory subject at the stage of high school education. Secondly, in class the career counselor should teach the teenager to determine the type of occupation in accordance with his or her abilities, study the modern labor market in comparison with his or her internal potential, and also provide the teenager with the opportunity to “try on” various professions with further analysis of the results.
Investing in socio-emotional skills during early childhood to achieve capabilities and fight poverty: overcoming socioeconomic vulnerabilities in Brazil through Criança Feliz
Authors: Pires Mayara Silva Sousa , Fava Ana Claudia Polato e , Kuwahara Mônica Yukie
Published: July 2022

This paper aims to discuss early childhood social-emotional development as a means to achieve capabilities and reduce poverty and inequality. Social-emotional skills provide the necessary cognitive tools to support individuals during choices and decisions that will affect socioeconomic status. Therefore, the connection between the socio-emotional skills approach and the capabilities must be established. When developed and mastered, the social-emotional skills improve opportunities and promote new capabilities to achieve desirable results (capabilities to function). If this development starts during early childhood, it ensures the right to exercise agency power, improving future economic results. For that reason, developing these skills in disadvantaged populations is a necessary condition to promote freedom and equality of opportunity, ensuring inclusive socio-economic development. The goals of "Programa Criança Feliz" (PCF), an early childhood social-emotional development program for disadvantaged children launched in October 2016 in Brazil, are analyzed in this paper through the connection between socio-emotional skills and the capabilities approach. This program integrates public policies that reduce the weakness of will and provide skills to overcome socioeconomic vulnerabilities in Brazil. Therefore, this paper contributes through the analysis of PCF, and the connection of the development of socio-emotional skills during early childhood to achieve capabilities and fight poverty.

Published: July 2022

The COVID-19 crisis is sweeping the world and affecting our lives, including consumer purchasing habits, preferences, and decisions. The survey, involving 251 respondents from Bali, Indonesia, examined how the pandemic affected Bali's purchasing decisions and consumer preferences. This paper aims to explore the impact of social media on consumer purchasing decisions, more specifically, examining the influence of social media on online shopping during the COVID-19 outbreak rooted in the service dominant logic (SDL) theory. Four hypotheses were developed and tested in the framework of a sample of 251 respondents from the Bali province. The proposed hypothesis was tested using AMOS 23 to perform structural equation modeling. The findings of this study suggest the critical role of social media interactivity in the two folds. First, parasocial interactions proved to be mediators of social media interactivity in improving purchasing decisions. Second, parasocial interaction has the potential to influence the decision-making of product purchasing preferences.

Authors: Díaz-Poveda Vanessa Catalina , Sadeghian Siavosh
Published: July 2022

En la zona cafetera de Colombia se emplea una variedad amplia de productos para corregir la acidez del suelo, sin que se disponga de suficiente información acerca de su calidad. Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo evaluar la eficiencia de las enmiendas de uso común en la caficultura colombiana para corregir la acidez del suelo. Se seleccionaron 30 productos, clasificados como cales agrícolas, dolomíticas y apagadas, rocas fosfóricas, yeso agrícola y productos obtenidos a partir de la mezcla de varios compuestos. Se evaluaron las variables: poder de neutralización (PN), eficiencia granulométrica (EG), contenido de humedad (H), calcio (Ca), magnesio (Mg) y poder relativo de neutralización total (PRNT); adicionalmente, mediante la prueba de incubación se determinó el efecto de los productos en la corrección de la acidez de un suelo y el aporte Ca y Mg. Las cales agrícolas, dolomíticas y apagadas presentaron valores de H entre 0,0% y 0,6%, PN entre 93% y 120%, EG entre 62% y 96% y PRNT entre 62% y 115%. Las rocas fosfóricas mostraron baja capacidad para corregir la acidez (PN entre 3% y 22%, PRNT entre 9% y 16%), al igual que el yeso agrícola (PN de 32%, PRNT de 23%). Se presentó una alta correlación entre el pH del suelo, evaluado en la prueba de incubación y el PRNT de los productos (R2=0,92), resultado que sugiere el uso de este parámetro para establecer la eficiencia de enmiendas empleadas como correctivos de la acidez del suelo.
Vetting the “Lobster” Diagram: Searching for Unseen Companions in Wide Binaries Using NASA Space Exoplanet Missions
Authors: Hartman Zachary D. , Lépine Sébastien , Medan Ilija
Published: July 2022

Over the past decade, the number of known wide-binary systems has expanded exponentially, thanks to the release of data from the Gaia Mission. Some of these wide-binary systems are actually higher-order multiples, where one of the components is an unresolved binary itself. One way to search for these systems is by identifying the overluminous components in the systems. In this study, we examine 4947 K+K wide-binary pairs from the SUPERWIDE catalog, and quantify the relative colors and luminosities of the components to find evidence for additional unresolved companions. The method is best illustrated in a graph that we call the “Lobster” diagram. To confirm that the identified overluminous components are close binary systems, we cross-match our wide binaries with the TESS, K2, and Kepler archives, and search for signs of eclipses and fast stellar rotation modulation in the light curves. We find that 78.9% ± 20.7% of the wide binaries that contain an eclipsing system are identified as overluminous in the “Lobster” diagram, and that 73.5% ± 12.4% of the wide binaries that contain a component showing fast rotation (P < 5 days) also show an overluminous component. From these results, we calculate a revised lower limit on the higher-order multiplicity fraction for K+K wide binaries of 40.0% ± 1.6%. We also examine the higher-order multiplicity fraction as a function of projected physical separation and metallicity. The fraction is unusually constant as a function of projected physical separation, while we see no statistically significant evidence that the fraction varies with metallicity.

In the present work, we focus on (super)massive BHs and provide an ab initio computation of their mass function across cosmic time. We consider two main mechanisms to grow the central BH that are expected to cooperate in the high-redshift star-forming progenitors of local massive galaxies. The first is the gaseous dynamical friction process, which can cause the migration toward the nuclear regions of stellar mass BHs originated during the intense bursts of star formation in the gas-rich host progenitor galaxy and the buildup of a central heavy BH seed, M

⊙, within short timescales of ≲some 107 yr. The second mechanism is the standard Eddington-type gas disk accretion onto the heavy BH seed through which the central BH can become (super)massive, M
• ∼ 106−10
M
⊙, within the typical star formation duration, ≲1 Gyr, of the host. We validate our semiempirical approach by reproducing the observed redshift-dependent bolometric AGN luminosity functions and Eddington ratio distributions and the relationship between the star formation and the bolometric luminosity of the accreting central BH. We then derive the relic (super)massive BH mass function at different redshifts via a generalized continuity equation approach and compare it with present observational estimates. Finally, we reconstruct the overall BH mass function from the stellar to the (super)massive regime over more than 10 orders of magnitudes in BH mass.
The Effects of Cosmic Rays on the Chemistry of Dense Cores

Published: July 2022

Cosmic rays are crucial to the chemistry of molecular clouds and their evolution. They provide essential ionizations, dissociations, heating, and energy to the cold, dense cores. As cosmic rays pierce through clouds they are attenuated and lose energy, which leads to a dependency on the column density of a system. The detailed effects these particles have on the central regions still need to be fully understood. Here, we revisit how cosmic rays are treated in the UCLCHEM chemical modeling code by including both ionization rate and H2 dissociation rate dependencies alongside the production of cosmic ray induced excited species and we study in detail the effects of these treatments on the chemistry of pre-stellar cores. We find that these treatments can have significant effects on chemical abundances, up to several orders of magnitude, depending on the physical conditions. The ionization dependency is the most significant treatment influencing chemical abundances through the increased presence of ionized species, grain desorptions, and enhanced chemical reactions. Comparisons to chemical abundances derived from observations show the new treatments reproduce these observations better than the standard handling. It is clear that more advanced treatments of cosmic rays are essential to chemical models and that including this type of dependency provides more accurate chemical representations.

We present an updated catalog of StrayCats (a catalog of NuSTAR stray light observations of X-ray sources) that includes nearly 18 additional months of observations. StrayCats v2 has an added 53 sequence IDs, 106 rows, and three new identified stray light (SL) sources in comparison to the original catalog. The total catalog now has 489 unique sequence IDs, 862 entries, and 83 confirmed StrayCats sources. Additionally, we provide new resources for the community to gauge the utility and spectral state of the source in a given observation. We have created long-term light curves for each identified SL source using MAXI and Swift/BAT data when available. Further, source extraction regions for 632 identified SL observations were created and are available to the public. In this paper we present an overview of the updated catalog and new resources for each identified StrayCats SL source.
A Simple Condition for Sustained Super-Eddington Black Hole Growth
Authors: Lawrence Johnson Jarrett , Upton Sanderbeck Phoebe R.
Published: July 2022

One of the most pressing questions in cosmology is how the black holes (BHs) powering quasars at high redshift grow to supermassive scales within a billion years of the Big Bang. Here we show that sustained super-Eddington accretion can be achieved for BHs with Eddington fractions f
Edd ≳ 2/ϵ, where ϵ is the efficiency with which radiation is generated in the accretion process. In this regime, the radiation carries too little momentum to halt the accretion flow and the infalling gas traps the radiation. The BH growth then proceeds unimpeded until the gas supply is exhausted, in contrast to accretion at lower rates, which is limited by the radiation generated in the accretion process. The large gas supply available in massive high-redshift quasar host galaxies may be readily accreted onto seed BHs via this supply-limited mode of accretion, providing an explanation for how such supermassive BHs are assembled in the early universe. This sustained super-Eddington growth may also explain the short lifetimes inferred for the H ii regions surrounding high-redshift quasars, if the bulk of the BH growth occurs without the associated radiation escaping to ionize the intergalactic medium. It furthermore implies that a population of obscured rapidly growing BHs may be difficult to detect, perhaps explaining why so few quasars with Eddington fractions higher than a few have been observed. Finally, this simple condition for sustained super-Eddington growth can easily be implemented in cosmological simulations that can be used to assess in which environments it occurs.
Period Variation of the Close Eclipsing Binary V405 Draconis

We found a period variation of the close binary of EW type V405 Draconis. From the O − C diagram built using survey data, data from the literature, and our observations, we calculated a period increase rate (1/P)(dP/dt) of 2.72(0.03) · 10−6 yr−1. Along with the monotonic period increase, TESS data demonstrates a sign of a cyclic variation of the period. We estimated the period of such cyclic variations as 537.9(1.4) days with a semi-amplitude of 0.00200(0.00001) days. This can provide evidence for the presence of the third body in the system.

Authors: Brachat Volker , Assing Volker
Published: July 2022

Two species of Bergrothia Reitter, 1884, a small Caucasian genus of Amauropini, are described and illustrated: B. svanetica spec. nov. (Georgia: Svaneti region) and B. simplex spec. nov. (Northeast Turkey: Ordu, Giresun). Including the new species, the genus now includes a total of nine species distributed in Georgia (six species), Northeast Turkey (three species), and Azerbaijan (one species). Based on abundant material collected during seven field trips conducted to Georgia between 2016 and 2021, the partly allo- and partly sympatric distributions of the Bergrothia species in Georgia are clarified and mapped. All of them are confined to the west of the country.

Collections of pathogenic fungi found on spiders from Thailand were selected for a detailed taxonomic study. Morphological comparison and phylogenetic analyses of the combined ITS, LSU, tef1, rpb1 and rpb2 sequence data indicated that these specimens formed new independent lineages within the Cordycipitaceae, containing two new genera occurring on spiders, i.e. Jenniferiagen. nov. and Polystromomycesgen. nov. Two new species in Jenniferia, J. griseocinereasp. nov. and J. thomisidarumsp. nov., are described. Two strains, NHJ 03510 and BCC 2191, initially named as Akanthomyces cinereus (Hevansia cinerea), were shown to be part of Jenniferia. By including sequences of putative Hevansia species from GenBank, we also revealed Parahevansia as a new genus with the ex-type strain NHJ 666.01 of Pa. koratensis, accommodating specimens previously named as Akanthomyces koratensis (Hevansia koratensis). One species of Polystromomyces, Po. araneaesp. nov., is described. We established an asexual-sexual morph connection for Hevansia novoguineensis (Cordycipitaceae) with ex-type CBS 610.80 and proposed a new species, H. minutasp. nov. Based on characteristics of the sexual morph, Hevansia and Polystromomyces share phenotypic traits by producing stipitate ascoma with fertile terminal heads; however, they differ in the shape and colour of the stipes. Meanwhile, Jenniferia produces non-stipitate ascoma with aggregated superficial perithecia forming a cushion. A new morphology of ascospores in Jenniferia is described, illustrated and compared with other species in Cordycipitaceae.
