Molecular and morphological systematics of soil-inhabiting Cryptorhynchinae of the genus Acallorneuma and the tribe Torneumatini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), with description of two new species.
Authors: Stüben Peter E. , Schütte André , López Heriberto , Astrin Jonas J.
Published: December 2020

Ausgehend von ökologischen (idealtypischen) Einordnungen der flugunfähigen, westpaläarktischen Cryptorhynchinae werden molekulare und morphologische Ergebnisse zur monophyletischen Rüsselkäfer-Gattung Acallorneuma Mainardi, 1906 und zu den subterrestrisch lebenden Arten des Tribus Torneumatini Bedel, 1884 vorgestellt. Ein Katalog und ein Bilderschlüssel zu den 8 validen Arten der Acallorneuma leitet eine Diskussion über die begrenzten Möglichkeiten einer rein morphologischen Analyse der uniformen Arten des Genus Acallorneuma ein. In einem weiteren Schritt wird die morphologische Systematik mit der molekularen Rekonstruktion der Verwandtschaftsverhältnisse anhand einer Region des mitochondrialen CO1 Gens verglichen. Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit wenden wir uns den gegenwärtig 71 bekannten, blinden, flügellosen und weitgehend kryptischen, tief im Erdreich lebenden Arten der Torneumatini zu. Die molekulare Analyse zeigt zwischen den Arten erhebliche p-Distanzen, macht aber auch deutlich, dass die Rekonstruktion der Verwandtschaftsverhältnisse ganz entscheidend von der Anzahl der Arten und Proben abhängig ist. Dennoch wurden einige taxonomische Änderungen vorgenommen: Torneuma s. str. mit der Typusart Torneuma caecum Wollaston, 1860 gibt es nur auf dem Madeira Archipel! Die Arten des Subgenus Paratyphloporus Solari, 1937 stat. nov. – und zwar nur die von den Kanarischen Inseln – gehören in das Subgenus Paratorneuma Roudier, 1956 stat. nov. Für alle anderen Arten aus dem mediterranen Gebiet und den östlichen kanarischen Inseln ist eine endgültige Klassifikation zur Zeit noch nicht möglich (incertae sedis), auch wenn erste Gruppen - eingeteilt vor allem nach der Innensackstruktur des Aedoeagus - hier bereits vorgestellt werden (siehe Anhang 2). Torneuma deplanatum deplanatum (Hampe, 1864) ist die Typusart des Subgenus Typhloporus und schließt einige, aber eben nicht alle mediterranen Arten mit einem konstant tiefen Rüsselkanal ein, der – das zeigen unsere vergleichenden Studien – offensichtlich mehrere Male in der Evolution ausgebildet wurde. Zwei neue Arten werden abschließenden beschrieben: Torneuma (s. str.) isambertoi Stüben spec. nov. von Madeira and Torneuma (s.l.) cadizensis Stüben spec. nov. aus dem Süden Spaniens. Für beide Arten werden Schlüssel mit den nächst verwandten Arten präsentiert.StichwörterAcallorneuma, Torneumatini, Torneuma, Bayesian analysis, Integrative Taxonomy, morphology, CO1, new species, taxonomic changes, Western Palaearctic, Spain, Portugal, Canary Islands, Madeira.Nomenklatorische Handlungenisambertoi Stüben, 2016 (Torneuma (s. str.)), spec. nov.cadizensis Stüben, 2016 (Torneuma (s.l.)), spec. nov.

On the Ischnosoma fauna of Georgia (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Tachyporinae)
Authors: Assing Volker , Schülke Michael
Published: December 2020

Three species of the Ischnosoma spelaeum group are described and illustrated, all of them most likely with very restricted distributions: Ischnosoma acutum spec. nov. (Georgia: Svaneti, Racha); I. barbigerum spec. nov. (Georgia: Svaneti); I. molle spec. nov. (Georgia: Adjara). Type material of I. major (Luze, 1901) and I. caucasicum Kocian, 1997 is revised. Additional records of previously described species of Ischnosoma Stephens, 1829 are reported from Georgia, partly also from other regions. Seven species of the genus have reliably been recorded from Georgia, two species of the I. pictum group and widespread, five of the I. spelaeum group and with restricted distributions. The presence of an additional species of the I. spelaeum group, I. caucasicum, requires confirmation. The distributions of the species of the I. spelaeum group are revised and mapped. Several previous literature records are zoogeographically implausible and consequently probably erroneous.

Authors: Assing Volker
Published: December 2020

Species of the nominal subgenus of the lomechusine genus Zyras Stephens, 1835 of the southeastern Oriental region are revised. Eighteen species are (re-)described and/or illustrated, six of them for the first time: Zyras (Zyras) latibasalis spec. nov. (Java, tentatively recorded also from Laos), Z. (Z.) rutrilobatus spec. nov. (Laos), Z. (Z.) parvilobatus spec. nov. (Laos), Z. (Z.) hirtiventris spec. nov. (Laos, Vietnam), Z. (Z.) hlavaci spec. nov. (Malaysia: Pahang, Selangor), Z. (Z.) lunatus spec. nov. (Malaysia: Selangor). Eight synonymies are proposed: Zyras bryanti Cameron, 1943 = Z. mortuorum Pace, 1990, syn. nov., = Z. paederinus Pace, 2008, syn. nov.; Zyras nigerrimus Cameron, 1943 = Z. bartolozzii Pace, 2003, syn. nov., = Z. alboterminalis Pace, 2008, syn. nov.; Z. granulipennis Cameron, 1930 = Z. pervariolosus Pace, 2008, syn. nov.; Z. matangensis Cameron, 1943 = Z. daiaccorum Pace, 2008, syn. nov.; Z. montanus (Bernhauer, 1915) = Z. variolatus Pace, 2003, syn. nov.; Z. preangeranus Cameron, 1939 = Z. quadriterminalis Pace, 2008, syn. nov. One species is excluded from Zyras: Myrmedonota modiglianii (Cameron, 1925), comb. nov. Lectotypes are designated for Zyras elegantulus Cameron, 1939, Z. semirufus Cameron, 1939, and Z. flavus Cameron, 1939. Additional records of nine named species are reported. A key to the species recorded from the southeastern Oriental region and an updated catalogue of the species of the Palaearctic and Oriental regions are provided. The subgenus is currently represented in the Palaearctic and Oriental regions by a total of 122 described species. Twenty-two species have been recorded from Sunda Islands. The countries with the greatest diversity are China (46 named species), India (20), Indonesia (19), Malaysia (15), Thailand (14), Nepal (12), Laos (11), and Vietnam (8).

Wildbienen (Hymenoptera, Aculeata: Apiformes) des Mittleren Moseltals: Die Weinbausteillagen im Klotten-Treiser Moseltal
Authors: Krahner André , Dathe Holger H. , Schmitt Thomas
Published: December 2020

Von 2012 bis 2013 wurden Wildbienen in Weinbausteillagen mittels Sichtfang, Farbschalen und Malaise-Fallen erfasst. Aus 3246 bestimmten Individuen resultierten 159 nachgewiesene Wildbienenarten. Fast ein Drittel der erfassten Arten ist als bestandsgefahrdet zu bezeichnen oder von Bestandsruckgangen betroffen. Im Vergleich mit Erfassungsergebnissen aus dem naheren Umkreis deuten die vorliegenden Ergebnisse auf eine grose Bedeutung der untersuchten Weinbausteillagen als (Teil-)Lebensraume hin, die der regionalen Artenvielfalt der Bienen zugrunde liegen.

Authors: Irmler Ulrich
Published: December 2020

The Neotropical material of the genus Eleusis deposited in the Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, USA, containing 440 specimens in 18 species, was studied. Additionally, specimens from French Guiana collected by J. Schmidl, Germany, were included. New records of eight rare species were listed and sampling details noted. Three new species were found: E. mazureki spec. nov., E. dybasi spec. nov., and E. chiriquensis spec. nov. The new species are described and integrated in the key to Neotropical Eleusis provided by Irmler (2017). Furthermore, corrections to the same paper are necessary. These are: Eleusis platysoma Irmler, 2017 is transferred to the genus Inopeplus (Salpingidae); Eleusis fauveli Irmler, 2017 is preoccupied by Eleusis fauveli Fagel, 1957 and E. fauveliana new name proposed for the former, and the location of holotype deposition of E. rufipennis is added.

In memory of Professor Dr Werner Mohrig (*17 December 1937 – †26 April 2019)
Authors: Menzel Frank , Hennicke Frank , Trenczek Tina E. , Werner Doreen , Kampen Helge
Published: December 2020

The German zoologist Werner Mohrig died on the 26th April 2019, at the age of 81, in Gießen (Hesse). As professor of general zoology he taught at the Zoological Institute and Museum of the Ernst Moritz Arndt University in Greifswald. In this capacity, Professor Dr Mohrig was responsible for the education and training of many young dipterists and immunobiologists. Among entomologists, he is known worldwide for his extensive taxonomic and systematic studies on the lower Diptera (Cecidomyiidae, Culicidae, Sciaridae). In addition to a biographical sketch of his life, this paper lists his 201 scientific papers on entomology and immunology, as well as anthropological and demographic topics. The final part is a list of taxa described by Werner Mohrig, in which 3 preoccupied names are replaced and 15 species names are newly combined with a different genus.

Perceptions, mode de gestion et végétation des bois sacrés au nord du Burkina Faso
Authors: Savadogo Salfo , Ouédraogo Amadé , Thiombiano Adjima
Published: December 2020

L’étude s’inscrit dans le cadre de la valorisation des bois sacrés dans un contexte de conservation de la biodiversité, elle a pour objectifs de recenser les différents bois sacrés au nord du Burkina Faso, d’évaluer leur richesse floristique et d’appréhender leurs mécanismes de gestion par les populations locales. Des prospections ont été conduites sur l’ensemble de la zone d’étude en vue de recenser les bois sacrés. Dans chaque localité des enquêtes ont été conduites auprès des populations directement ou indirectement impliquées dans la gestion de ces formations. Des relevés phytosociologiques ont été réalisés dans les différentes formations végétales (bois sacrés et formations adjacentes) suivant la méthode Braun-Blanquet (1932) sur des placeaux de 1000 m2 et de 100 m2 respectivement pour les ligneux et les herbacées, en vue de déterminer les différentes phytocoenoses. 190 bois sacrés ont été recensés dont 35 ont fait l’objet d’inventaires phytosociologiques. 35 formations adjacentes ont également fait l’objet d’inventaires afin de mieux apprécier l’importance des bois sacrés dans la conservation des espèces. Le traitement des données phytosociologiques s’est effectué sur la base de 162 relevés, au moyen du logiciel CAP (Community Analysis Package). Les résultats ont révélé que les systèmes de gestion des ressources naturelles dans les bois sacrés sont basés sur des règles et des principes traditionnels. Ces bois sont pour la plupart des cimetières (50% du total), fétiches (17% du total) et fétiche-cimetières (27% du total). Le traitement des données phytosociologiques a permis de discriminer 11 groupements végétaux dont 05 pour la strate ligneuse et 06 pour la strate herbacée. Les relevés de 7 groupements ont été réalisés dans les bois sacrés et ceux de 4 groupements hors des bois sacrés. L’analyse de la richesse floristique d’ensemble (bois sacrés et environs) des ligneux a révélé la dominance de la famille des Leguminosae-Mimosoideae (16%) et des Combretaceae (12%). La flore herbacée quant à elle est dominée par les Poaceae (24%) et les Leguminosae- Papilionoideae (12%).
The Medicinal Plants of the Woodlands in northern Malawi (Karonga District)
Authors: Bundschuh Tina Vanadis , Hahn Karen , Wittig Rüdiger
Published: December 2020

In rural Africa, the use of wild plants for medicinal purposes is widespread. Many publications provide regional checklists of medicinal plants, but only a few of these checklists cover Malawi. In the Karongo district, northern Malawi, 30 traditional healers and birth attendants were interviewed regarding their use of woody medicinal plants. This survey reveals that 71 of the 102 woody species that are found in this area are used for a variety of treatments. These medicinal plants are most commonly applied in obstetrics. The favoured wild plants are frequently found in the area; however, three species are perceived as decreasing in abundance.
Biodiversity islands in the Savanna : analysis of the phytodiversity on termite mounds in northern Benin
Authors: Kirchmair Ivana , Schmidt Marco , Zizka Georg , Erpenbach Arne , Hahn Karen
Published: December 2020

Termite mounds represent abundant microhabitats of high biodiversity in tropical savanna ecosystems and are an important source of landscape heterogeneity in Sub–Saharan West Africa. Floristic composition as well as density, structure and zonation of plant cover on the mounds were investigated in northern Benin and compared to the adjacent savanna vegetation. A total of 57 abandoned and densely vegetated termite mounds of comparable size and similarly affected by erosion  located  in different types of savannas inside and outside of the W National Park and in cotton fields were studied. This study revealed that termitaria are special habitats differing in density, composition and structure from surrounding savannas. The plant cover of termite mounds showed a distinctive zonation. Succulents, geophytes, and lianas were much more abundant on mounds, the family Capparaceae was found exclusively on mounds. The floristic composition and vegetation on termitaria proved to be rather homogeneous; although those mounds located in cotton fields differed by higher abundance of Poaceae and lower species richness.
A university campus in peri-urban Accra (Ghana) as a haven for dry-forest species
Authors: Simmering Dietmar , Addai Solomon , Geller Gunther , Otte Annette
Published: December 2020

Valley View University (VVU) is a private university located within the dry forest zone of the Accra plains; an area strongly affected by urban sprawl. The campus covers approx. 105 ha. Considerable portions of it are yet undeveloped and covered with savannah thickets. In 2002, the university has committed itself to become Africa's first "ecological university". In the context of two projects, substantial improvements have been made in terms of sanitation, water supply, energy-saving buildings and organic agriculture. The further development of the campus was designed in a detailed "ecological masterplan". In this context, we carried out a floristic inventory of the savannah thickets and found more than 100 plant species; the majority of which represent the species pool of the unique mixture of dry forest and savannah thicket species, which is typical for the region. As the remainder of dry forests and savannah thickets in the Accra plains become increasingly threatened by urban sprawl and overgrazing, the VVU administration has agreed to preserve the species-rich thickets. This is a valuable contribution to a more sustainable development of the region.

Caractérisation de l’infestation de Tapinanthus dodonaeifolius (Loranthaceae) chez le karité (Vitellaria paradoxa) au Tchad
Authors: Kanika Idriss Tourgou , Ngarmari Christophe Djekota , Biye Elvire Hortense
Published: December 2020

Au Tchad, à cause de ses retombées financières une attention particulière est prêtée aux arbres à karité (Vitellaria paradoxa C.F.Gaertn.). Cependant, cette culture est menacée par les plantes vasculaires parasites de la famille des Loranthaceae. La présente étude a été effectuée dans 3 sites dans la région du Mandoul pour évaluer l’ampleur des attaques de Loranthaceae (gui africain) sur des arbres en fonction des classes de circonférence du tronc à 1,5 cm du sol. Elle a consisté à dénombrer sur une de surface, les arbres à karité infestés et les touffes de parasites rencontrées sur ces arbres, afin de déterminer leur taux et leur intensité d’infestation. Les résultats obtenus montrent que Tapinanthus dodonaeifolius (DC) Danser a été trouvée comme la seule espèce de Loranthaceae qui parasite les arbres karité étudiés dans la zone d’étude. Le taux moyen d’infestation estimé à 73% augmente avec l’âge des arbres karité. La moyenne d’intensité de l’infestation/arbre (2,75 touffes à Békôh, 2,27 à Yomi and 2,04 à Bébopen) montre que Tapinanthus dodonaeifolius constitue une réelle menace pour les peuplements de karité dans la zone d’étude. Il reste à rechercher le seuil d’infestation qui provoque une réduction significative de la fructification. Pour l’instant, bien que pénible à cause de la hauteur des arbres adultes, la lutte mécanique contre les Tapinanthus par la coupe systématique des branches infestées est urgente dans les parcs à karité dans cette zone d’étude.
The Capital Structure of Islamic-Compliant Firms: Is There a Financing Hierarchy?
Authors: Guizani Muncef
Published: December 2020

This article examines whether the basic premises according to the pecking order theory (POT) provide an explanation for the capital structure choice of firms operating under Islamic principles. Random effect regressions were performed to test the POT applying data from a sample of 93 Islamic-compliant firms listed on Saudi stock market over the period of 2006 to 2016. The results show that sale-based instruments (Murabahah, Ijara) track the financial deficit quite closely followed by equity financing and as a last alternative to finance deficit, Islamic-compliant firms’ issue Sukuk. In the crisis period, these firms seem more reliant on equity, then on sale-based instrument and on Sukuk as last option. The study findings also indicate that the cumulative financing deficit does not wipe out the effects of conventional variables, although it is empirically significant. This provides no support for the POT attempts by Saudi Islamic-compliant firms.
Impact Size and Determinants of Indirect Cost of Financial Distress: Role of Receivable and Inventory Management
Authors: Farooq Umar , Qamar Muhammad Ali Jibran , Reddy Krishna
Published: December 2020

This research investigates the opportunity cost as an indirect cost of financial distress from two perspectives. First, indirect cost is estimated using multi-stage financial distress and non-linear proxy of debt. Second, receivable and inventory management are studied as determinants of indirect cost. The sample includes ongoing Pakistani firms that were healthy in the previous year and documenting positive gross profit. Results showed that firms bear opportunity loss primarily due to leverage rather than multistage financial distress. However, a non-linear relationship is found between leverage and indirect cost. Results further explored the impact of multistage financial distress on internal operations, i.e., working capital policies. It is found that firms manage receivable and inventory simultaneously during the multistage financial distress. Results revealed that increasing receivables and decreasing inventory is suitable during the transition of healthy firms to initial stage of financial distress, i.e., profit reduction. However, decreasing receivables, along with holding more inventory, is recommended for healthy firms that face liquidity problems subsequently. It is concluded that managers can reduce the indirect cost after deploying the optimal debt ratio and recommended receivable and inventory management policies.
Evidence for a two-stage particle attachment mechanism for phyllosilicate crystallization in geological processes

Published: December 2020

The understanding of crystal nucleation and growth has evolved over the past two decades from the conventional atom-by-atom model to a non-classical approach, involving particle aggregation and amorphous transformation pathways. Whereas aggregation of particles instead of individual atoms/ions/molecules has been recognized as a common crystallization pathway at the Earth’s surface conditions, few cases are known for high-temperature (e.g., melt) mineralization, which is of great importance for understanding geological processes.

Here, we present texture data for natural (e.g., igneous and metamorphic biotite and muscovite) and synthetic (e.g., fluorophlogopite) phyllosilicates suggesting that a particle attachment formation should be considered, although other crystal growth models cannot be excluded. A nonclassical crystallization model is proposed for phyllosilicates forming at elevated temperatures in magmatic and metamorphic environments whereby oriented attachment of building blocks occurs along the (001) plane or the [001] direction, or both simultaneously. In this model, the crystallization of phyllosilicates occurs in steps, with multi-ion complexes forming nanoparticles, and nanoparticles coalescing (self-assembly) to form nano-flakes that become domains in larger crystallites by oriented attachment. Adjacent domains can share a common crystallographic orientation or may be rotated at various angles relative to each other. Nanoparticles may be associated with distorted bonds or may be space separated. Thus, the phyllosilicate grows into a mosaic crystal.

Mosaic crystals can also form following classical crystallization models, but the process differs in that the mosaic character involves the intergrowths of nucleation sites (classical crystal-growth process) instead of the coalescence of nanoparticles building blocks (crystallization by particle attachment). These processes may be discerned by the textural differences that result. Oriented particle attachment of building blocks in phyllosilicates is recognized by a loss of closest packing by bond distortion or by space separation at domain boundaries. Crystallization by atom attachment occurs with closest packing within layers, and particles grow independently. The two processes may occur within a single environment and are not mutually exclusive. However, defects generated, for example, by chemical inhomogeneity, mechanical deformation, or sample preparation, cannot be completely excluded, although the use of synthetic, end-member material (e.g., fluorophlogopite) generated from a melt reduces these possibilities. Nonetheless, a particle attachment model is a viable alternative to classical crystal growth processes for high-temperature phyllosilicates with the presented supporting data, although still not yet proven.

Authors: Koenig Reinhard , Bielik Martin , Dennemark Martin , Fink Theresa , Schneider Sven , Siegmund Norbert
Published: December 2020

One of the most important consequences of digitalization and the progress of artificial intelligence is automation in all areas of life. In this paper we investigate the automation of urban design. Based on four levels of automation, we provide a conceptual framework for the classification
and comparison of various urban design automation approaches and consider the scope of their applicability and the division of tasks between humans and computers. The proposed framework is applied in two demonstration projects. Finally, we discuss the technical needs and possibilities for
increasing urban design automation, as well as the implications these are expected to have for the profession of urban designers and architects.

ESTADO NUTRICIONAL DE IDOSOS RESIDENTES EM INSTITUIÇÃO GERIÁTRICA E A RELAÇÃO COM O CONSUMO ALIMENTAR
Authors: Rosa Ana Carolina Soares , Roque Jéssica Ribeiro , Gonçalves Danielle Raquel
Published: December 2020

Objetivo: avaliar o estado nutricional e o consumo alimentar de idosos institucionalizados, verificando-se possíveis relações entre eles. Metodologia: tratou-se de um estudo transversal descritivo com abordagem quantitativa, envolvendo 48 idosos. Foi avaliado peso (P), altura (A), índice de massa corporal (IMC), circunferências do braço (CB), panturrilha (CP) e cintura (CC), dobra cutânea do tríceps (DCT), e circunferência muscular do braço (CMB). O recordatório alimentar de 24h de três dias (R24h) foi utilizado para análise do consumo alimentar. A correlação de Spearman foi aplicada para verificar a relação entre antropometria e consumo alimentar. Resultados: foi encontrado que a maioria dos idosos estava com sobrepeso, adiposidade abdominal e desnutrição segundo a avaliação da CB e da CMB. A CP estava dentro da normalidade, e a DCT indicou obesidade apenas entre os homens. Encontrou-se consumo insuficiente de fibras, cálcio, vitaminas D e E, enquanto gordura saturada, ferro e proteínas (g/kg) estavam acima da recomendação em ambos os sexos. Houve correlação fraca das variáveis antropométricas com a caloria total, macronutrientes e fibras. Conclusão: pôde-se confirmar o estado nutricional dos idosos institucionalizados, marcado por excesso de peso coexistente com perda muscular, e conclui-se que este esteja relacionado à distribuição dos macronutrientes, principalmente, no que se refere ao percentual de lipídeos e carboidratos. Sugere-se que este quadro esteja agravado pelo sedentarismo dos idosos, uma vez que o consumo aumentado de proteínas não preveniu a perda de massa muscular.

Published: December 2020

Pacientes idosos em hemodiálise estão sujeitos às modificações alimentares, antropométricos e bioquímicas que são provocadas pela própria doença renal, pelo tratamento hemodialítico e pelo processo de envelhecimento. Neste trabalho, objetivou-se avaliar a relação dos parâmetros nutricionais entre homens e mulheres idosos em tratamento hemodialítico. Em estudo transversal realizado em Santa Maria, RS, foram considerados elegíveis, para a pesquisa, idosos com idade a partir de 60 anos, de ambos os sexos, diagnosticados com doença renal crônica, que realizavam hemodiálise três vezes na semana, e em tratamento há pelo menos três meses. Como parâmetros nutricionais, foram considerados os dados antropométricos, dietéticos e exames bioquímicos. Para a comparação entre os sexos masculino e feminino, das variáveis paramétricas foi utilizado o Teste t de Student bicaudal para amostras independentes. Os resultados encontrados indicam relação do sexo com o índice de massa corporal, quilocalorias, proteína, carboidrato, fósforo, potássio, vitamina D e Kt/V. A partir disso pode-se concluir que os achados deste estudo reforçam a importância da avaliação nutricional no contexto do tratamento de renais crônicos em hemodiálise, visando uma boa adesão à dieta e adequação à diálise.
