Identity of the Distal Segments of the Maxilla 2 and Maxilliped in Copepods: New Teeth for Carl Claus' Old Saw
Authors: Ferrari Frank D. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractInterpretations by Claus and Gicsbrecht of the identity of the distal segments of the maxilla 2 and maxilliped in copepods are reviewed. The developmental pattern of setal additions to these appendages suggests that the distal segments of maxilla 2 are exopodal, while those of the maxilliped are endopodal; these data are consistent with the interpretation of Claus. Information about the genetic regulation of development of a fruitfly, and a reinterpretation of a fossil arthropod also support Claus. A general hypothesis identifies a compartment with a contralateral pair of uniramal limbs as the basic division of the body of an ancestral arthropod. Somites, crustacean biramal appendages, and insect uniramal appendages arc derived. The general hypothesis is used to explain the structure of a copepod including maxilla 2 and maxilliped.
On a Collection of Decapod Larvae From the Gulf of Aqaba Off the Jordanian Coast, I. Thalassinidea and Anomura
Authors: Seridji Rabia 
Published: April 2008

AbstractDescriptions of some decapod crustacean larvae of a plankton collection from the Gulf of Aqaba deal with Thalassinidea (Laomediidae, Upogebiidae, and Callianassidae) and Anomura (Galatheidae and Diogenidae). Discussion on generic larval characters is made particularly in Callianassidae and Diogenidae. Comparison of Laomediidae and Galatheidae larvae is summarized in tables I and II. The different arrangement of spines on some abdominal somites in Upogebiidae larvae is not a generic character but can be used, viz., in the form of distinctive larval species features. Because of confusion among the adult callianassid genera and the lack of knowledge in larval development, a definite generic identification is not possible. A key to the identification of Coenobitoidea larvae is provided. Larvae of the Coenobitidae and Calcinus are distinguished.

Authors: Lutsch Edie , Avenant-Oldewage Annemariè 
Published: April 2008

Abstract
Fcrtilized Argulus japonicus Thiele, 1900, eggs were hatched in the laboratory. The morphology of the first developmental stage was studied by means of scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy. The surface topography of the carapace and appendages are described. It is shown that the mandible base is fused with the labrum and metastome to form the proboscis.
Phyllosoma Larvae of Scyzlarus Species (Decapoda, Scyllaridae) From the Shelf Waters of Australia
Authors: Mcwilliam Paulette S. , Phillips Bruce F. , Kelly Sean 
Published: April 2008

Abstract
Zooplankton samples from tropical (the Gulf of Carpentaria and the Northwest Shelf of Western Australia) and temperate (east coast of Tasmania) regions of Australia contained phyllosoma larvae of 14 species of Scyllarus. All but two species were represented at the final, gilled state the exceptions showed intermediary development between subfinal and final stages. Two species were represented as complete larval series, the remainder as incomplete series. The final, or most-developed, stage of the 14 unidentified species, referred to as Scyllarus species A-N in this paper, are described and compared with the literature. Larvae of five species appear to be new larval records for the Indo-West Pacific. Larvae of another three species correspond with those attributed previously to S. rugosus H. Milne Edwards, 1837, S. sordidus (Stimpson, 1860) and S. demani Holthuis, 1946. These, and some other larval identifications or affinities tendered in the literature are examined.
A New Species of Dendrocephalus (Anostraca, Thamnocephalidae) From Argentina
Authors: Pereira S Guido A. , Ruiz B Luis 
Published: April 2008

Abstract
A description of a new species of Anostraca, Dendrocephalus conosuris n. sp., is presented. It occurs in the Province of Santa Fé, Argentina. The description is based on the morphological characters of the male, especially those of the frontal appendage and of the endopods of the first two pairs of legs. The female is described as well. A comparison of the penis of all ten known species is made to conclude, that there are species-specific features on it.
Neurodepressing Hormone (Ndh): Fact or Fiction?
Authors: Huberman Alberto 
Published: April 2008

AbstractExtracts of the crustacean eyestalk, and particularly of the sinus gland, produce an inhibition of the spontaneous firing rate of motor and sensitive neurons in two different bioassays. This activity can be ascribed to a molecule of low molecular weight, neutral, non-peptidic, soluble in water and methanol, thermostable, different from GABA but suppressed by picrotoxin. Its nature remains to be elucidated.
Anemone-Carrying Behaviour in a Deep-Water Homolid Crab (Brachyura, Podotremata)
Authors: Doumenc Dominique , Chintiroglou Charis Charles , Guinot Danièle 
Published: April 2008

AbstractA new symbiotic association between a deep-water homolid crab, Hypsophrys inflata Guinot & Richer de Forges, 1981 (Brachyura, Podotremata, Homolidae) and a sea anemone of the genus Isanthus (Anthozoa, Actiniaria, Isanthidae) is described from French Polynesia. The crab carries the anemone on its modified last pairs of legs. It is suggested that this represents a mutualistic association.
Chromosomes of the Parasitic Isopod Anilocra Physodes
Authors: Colomba Maria Stella , Vitturi Roberto , Pellerito Lorenzo , Catalano Eliodoro 
Published: April 2008

AbstractCounts of mitotic chromosomes have allowed to determine 2n = 12 as the modal diploid number of Anilocra physodes. Application of the C-banding technique reveals that two hetero-chromatic blocks bordering the centromeric region occur in each chromosome. This supports the notion that the actual low chromosome number of A. physodes may have been derived through a process of Robertsonian fusion.
A New Species of Archaeomysis From Coastal Waters of Japan (Mysidacea, Gastrosaccinae)
Authors: Hanamura Yukio , Jo Soo-Gun , Murano Masaaki 
Published: April 2008

AbstractA large number of Japanese specimens previously identified as Archaeomysis grebnitzkii were examined and compared with specimens from the Bering Sea and Pacific coast of North America. This study demonstrates that the Japanese population of Archaeomysis grebnitzkii sensu Ii (1964) differs consistently from those of the latter locations, particularly in the shape of the telson and the male 3rd pleopod, so as to constitute a new species, described here as A. japonica n. sp. A short note is included at the end of this paper reporting some observations on the biology of the species noted during this study.

Total Haemocyte Counts and Haematopoiesis in Saduria Entomon (Linnaeus, 1758) (Isopoda, Valvifera) From the Baltic Sea Infected With the Yeast Cryptococcus La Urentii (Kufferath) Skinner*)
Authors: Babula A. , Hryniewiecka-Szyfter Z. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractStudies were made of the haemolymph and haematopoiesis of 22 specimens of Saduria entomon, naturally infected with the yeast Cryptococcus laurentii. In 18 of these haemocytes were also counted. Their total haemocyte count was 693, which is 3 times the figure in healthy S. entomon. Their haemolymph contained granulocytes, hyaline cells, and C. laurentii cells. Granulocytes contained phagocytosed C. laurentii cells, while hyaline cells did not contain phagocytosed yeast. Haematopoiesis was clearly taking place in the gut wall of the S. entomon specimens under study. In the 4 remaining individuals the haemolymph was filled with C. laurentii cells among which only single hyaline cells with phagocytosed yeast cells were observed. In their gut wall only yeast cells accumulated. The results obtained support our earlier findings that in S. entomon granulocytes are the primary phagocytotic haemocytes, and that hyaline cells can be taken to be prohaemocytes capable of proliferation under specific conditions.
Size At Maturity and Sex Ratio of Arcitalitrus Dorrieni (Hunt, 1925) (Amphipoda, Talitridae) At Two Sites in County Galway, Ireland
Authors: Bolger Thomas , O'Hanlon Rory P. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractAnthropogenic dispersal has led to the introduction of several terrestrial amphipod species to the northern hemisphere. One such species, Arcitalitrus dorrieni (Hunt, 1925), a native of Australasia, is now found in several woodland sites in Ireland and Britain. Aspects of the biology of A. dorrieni were investigated in County Galway over a period of two years and compared between a "typical" mixed deciduous woodland habitat and a more "atypical" coniferous woodland habitat. At both sites, statistically significant differences were found between summer (Aug.-Sep.) size at maturity and winter (Jan.-Apr.) size at maturity, i.e., females were mature at smaller sizes in summer than in winter. Between-site comparisons of August-September data for both years showed that females were mature at a significantly smaller size at the mixed deciduous woodland site. A sex ratio biased in favour of females was recorded on all but one sampling date at each site, though on some dates this bias was not significant. The change in cohort sex ratio at both sites was quite distinct and exhibited the same general pattern. During the recruitment of each cohort, the ratio was biased towards males. As the cohort increased in length, however, the ratio changed to a bias in favour of females, so that by the time a particular cohort entered its breeding period the following year, it was biased firmly in favour of females. Possible reasons for the observed patterns are discussed.
Agonistic Interactions in Male Form Ii Cambarus Robustus Girard, 1852 Crayfish (Decapoda, Cambaridae) and a Comparison Between Male Form i aNd Form Ii Intra-Form Contests
Authors: Dunham David W. , Cornel Guiasu Radu 
Published: April 2008

AbstractAn analysis of intra-form agonistic contests between size-matched male Form II (non-breeding form) Cambarus robustus Girard, 1852 crayfish revealed that the winners and losers of these contests differed in the numbers and types of initiation behaviours used. The (eventual) winners, which initiated significantly more fights overall, used mostly the aggressive Claws Raised and Lunge initiation behaviours, whereas the (eventual) losers, which also initiated most of the very first fights of the overall agonistic contests, used mostly the tentative Ambivalent Contact behaviour. Thus, initiation behaviours can be used as good predictors of status for males of this species. The Lunge behaviour is a strong indicator of the eventual dominant status of male crayfish, during agonistic contests. There was a significant, negative correlation between the relative frequency of the Lunge initiation behaviours used by the winners and the total time spent fighting. A comparison between the male Form II and Form I (breeding form) intra-form contests, in this species, and an analysis of the differences and similarities between these two types of contests, indicated that male form is an important variable in the agonistic interactions of cambarid crayfish.
World and Self in Ageing and Psychosis
Authors: Eng Erling 
Published: April 2008

AbstractThrough the twofold meaning of nature for man-rhythmically-of which he is a part and from which he is apart, the situations of psychosis and of ageing "cross over." In both are manifested the imperious sway of that nature of which we are a part: in the earlier half of life-largely-as psychosis, in the latter half of life through ageing. It is in the midst of the life-span, with the transition from predominant instinctuality to awareness of its recession, that psychosis and ageing are disclosed as complementary perspectives, the vanishing point of the former toward the bodily birth of the individual, that of the latter toward the death of the individual body. Together they intimate the possibility of an individuality which can encompass the human meanings of both. In psychosis and ageing alike, the sway of that nature of which we are a part is coupled with a heightened awareness of our own nature as apart, in the former instance passively, with an accent on one's helplessness as mechanical mind, in the latter with the realization of one's own active part over and apart from the body. In psychosis the self is overwhelmed by that nature of which its body is a part as the latter's complexion is mediated by the world. In ageing the presence of the self stands out more clearly from the ebbing instinctuality with which it was earlier alloyed. To the negative defusion of instinctuality and individuality in psychosis corresponds the possibility of a positive separation in ageing. If in psychosis, "uprightness" (Straus), "eccentricity" (Plessner), "being in the world over and beyond the world" (Binswanger), has been early flawed, ageing enables individuality to emerge in relief from the detritus of imperfect projects. "When gods die they become men, when men die they become gods." (Heraclitus). While bodily membership in nature pervades emerging individuality in the first half of life, self-assumption of responsibility emerges with the discovery of ebbing instinctuality in the middle of life. The body as a hinge between nature of which we are a part and nature from which we are apart, and whose ambiguity (Merleau-Ponty) is rhythmically reflective of the world and of self, now becomes apparent. With this the possibility of a "depth psychology" is reached, that is, a reopening of the archives of one's history for a commemorative rereading (Freud, Jung). This moment of discovery, traditionally conveyed in the analogical imagery of late summer and the Mediterranean experience of noon and afternoon, recurs throughout the opus of Freud, from his "Gradiva" essay ( 1906), through "The Uncanny" ( 1919) to his "A Disturbance of Memory on the Acropolis" (1936), with undertones both of psychotic derealization and of the purifying ordeal of ageing.
Cognitive Therapy, Phenomenology, and the Struggle for Meaning
Authors: Moss Donald P. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractThis article critiques the inadequate attention given to the question of meaning in mainstream clinical psychiatry and psychology. The author reviews the history of phenomenological and existential psychiatry, especially the work of Erwin Straus, and highlights the emphasis on the personal world of experience and on such existential dimensions as time and ethical experience. Aaron Beck's school of cognitive therapy appropriates many themes and concepts from phenomenology, including the central concept of meaning, and turns them into a systematic technology for personal change. The author contrasts the phenomenological and cognitive approaches to meaning. The relationship between the cognitive and existential therapies is described by analogy to William James's healthy-minded and morbid-minded religion.
Sexual Norms and the Burden of Sexual Literacy
Authors: Dillon M.C. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractIn this paper, I argue against the kind of "scientific objectivity" that attempts to maintain the facade of value neutrality on the grounds that since objectivity is impossible, the claim to it is necessarily hypocritical. The impossibility stems from the inextricability of sex and sexuality: Sex as a natural phenomenon cannot be separated from sexuality as a matrix of value-laden, historically situated ideas and emotions. It stems also from the fact that the intensity of the pleasure-pain continuum, which is indissociable from sexual activity, makes caring a fundamental component of our sexual being: To desire is already to value. And it stems finally from the fact that the psychic and somatic health that stands as the goal of the counseling and therapy-providing services is itself a value. My recommendation is that we take responsibility for the values that inform our professional behavior-if only to make them available for critical scrutiny.
Emotion and Sartre's Two Worlds
Authors: Cogan John M. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractOn Sartre's own admission, his account of the emotions discloses them as functional. As such, the emotions aim to serve a particular purpose for which he provides the phenomenology. Sartre's phenomenology discloses consciousness as being-in-the-world in two ways, actually as having two worlds. One is a deterministic world, the other magical. Emotion is the drop from the deterministic world to the magical. In order for emotion to perform the function Sartre has in mind it performs, it is crucial there be a certain tension between the deterministic world and the magical world. I argue that given what Sartre himself says about the magical world, the necessary tension can never arise; hence, no functional thesis of emotion is possible if it is formed along Sartre's lines.
The Hallucinatory Epoché1
Authors: Azorin Jean-Michel , Naudin Jean 
Published: April 2008

AbstractThis paper focuses on the phenomenological significance of schizophrenics' auditory hallucinations and begins with the face-to-face relationship in order to describe the schizophrenic experience. Following European psychiatrists like Blackenburg and Tatossian, the authors compare the bracketing of reality in the Husserlian phenomenological reduction with that of the hallucinatory experience. "Hallucinatory epoché" is used to refer to the schizophrenic way to experiencing auditory hallucinations. The problem of intentionality is then discussed, in addition to that of dialogue, internal time, living body, and intersubjectivity. In this way, "voices" appear as a modification of the own inner voice of the hallucinating person. The "other, " at the origin of the "voices, " is described in terms of transparence, the quality of being univocal, and the quality of being a priori in the perfect tense. This other is not an alter ego, "it" is an alius. Descriptions of hallucinatory voices at several levels of experience, that is, at the transcendental and empirical levels along with descriptions at the level of the life-world, may be at the basis of certain modern empirical theories of "voices. " Results obtained from the European phenomenological point of view and Hoffman's findings in the cognitive field are then compared. The authors finally discuss a case of "speech therapy" (based on Hoffman's work) and argue that a possible avenue for phenomenological research on schizophrenia is to explore narrativity on the basis of single case studies. One of the goals of phenomenological psychiatry is to assist empirical research in finding new relationships between the stories told by the hallucinator-relationships that are presupposed in clinical experience.
Concerning the Festive and the Mundane
Authors: van den Berg J.H. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractThe festive and the quotidian offer two fundamentally different perspectives on the human world. The quotidian attitude opens to us a workaday world structured by mental and physical barriers which require to be leveled or removed. The festive attitude gives access to a world of the threshold in which we play the role of host and guest and in which it is possible for things and living beings to make their personal appearance. Modernity can be understood as an era in which a quotidian, work-oriented attitude was made to dominate and reconfigure all areas of human existence and in which the festive was progressively removed from public, and finally from private life. The renewal of psychology requires a re-understanding and a re-integration of the festive dimension in our lives.
Integrating Neuroscience and Phenomenology in the Study of Consciousness
Authors: Ellis Ralph D. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractPhenomenology and physiology become commensurable through a self-organizational physiology and an "enactive" view of consciousness. Self-organizing processes appropriate and replace their own needed substrata, rather than merely being caused by interacting components. Biochemists apply this notion to the living/nonliving distinction. An enactive approach sees consciousness as actively executed by an agent rather than passively reacting to stimuli. Perception does not result from mere stimulation of brain areas by sensory impulses; unless motivated organismic purposes first anticipate and "look for" emotionally relevant .stimuli, brain-sensory processing is not accompanied by perceptual consciousness. To see a soccer ball requires looking for it in the right place. The sell-organizing, emotionally motivated agent instigates this looking-for activity.
New Inscriptions On Lead From Olbia
Authors: Vinogradov Yu G. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractInscriptions on lead plates form a distinct group in Greek Black Sea epigraphy. They include private messages containing information about the lives and condition of Greek settlers as well as more standard texts, such as incantations, which also widen our knowledge of the social and economic structure and legal practice of the Ionian apoikiai of the region. The two inscriptions published for the first time here are both spells, probably judicial and of the early Hellenistic period, and testify to the flourishing legal activity and business life of Olbia.
Investigations of a Pazyryk Barrow At Kuturguntas
Authors: POLOS'MAK N.V. 
Published: April 2008

AbstractIn the summer of 1991 excavation was made of the largest barrow of a complex at Kuturguntas in the Bertek hollow of the Altai Highlands. The fairly well-preserved log-roofed construction consisted of an outer burial chamber of blackened roughhewn logs, an inner chamber of worked timber, a sarcophagus made of a single large log, and a storeroom. The coffin and storeroom had been ransacked in antiquity, but surviving grave goods-which include fragments of fur clothing, felt applique, and metal and wooden objects-parallel those found in other Pazyryk graves. Two carved wooden ibex heads had however not been attested among Pazyryk grave goods elsewhere. The wealth of the people buried in such medium-sized barrows lay in the thoroughbred horses buried with them. The burial here of 10 horses had not been disturbed, although only the wooden bridle decorations of the principal 'master's horse' survive well. These again show the popularity of the griffin motif in Pazyryk art. Fragments of three wooden bridle decorations displaying anthropomorphic horned faces probably had a protective function and are linked by the author to the mongoloid Hsiunnu, near neighbours of the Pazyryk people, and to the eclectic receptivity of the Pazyryk people to diverse iconography borrowings from the Middle and Far East.
