description: Palatable (Batesian) mimics of unprofitable models could use behavioral mimicry to compensate for the ease with which they can be visually discriminated or to augment an already close morphological resemblance. We evaluated these contrasting predictions by assaying the behavior of 57 field-caught species of mimetic hover flies (Diptera: Syrphidae) and quantifying their morphological similarity to a range of potential hymenopteran models. A purpose-built phylogeny for the hover flies was used to control for potential lack of independence due to shared evolutionary history. Those hover fly species that engage in behavioral mimicry (mock stinging, leg waving, wing wagging) were all large wasp mimics within the genera Spilomyia and Temnostoma. While the behavioral mimics assayed were good morphological mimics, not all good mimics were behavioral mimics. Therefore, while the behaviors may have evolved to augment good morphological mimicry, they do not advantage all good mimics.

description: Any population whose members are subject to extrinsic mortality should exhibit an increase in mortality with age. Nevertheless, the prevailing opinion is that populations of adult damselflies and dragonflies do not exhibit such senescence. Here, we challenge this contention by fitting a range of demographic models to the data on which these earlier conclusions were based. We show that a model with an exponential increase in age-related mortality (Gompertz) generally provides a more parsimonious fit than alternative models including age-independent mortality, indicating that many odonates do indeed senesce. Controlling for phylogeny, a comparison of the daily mortality of 35 odonate species indicates that although male and female mortalities are positively correlated, mortality tends to be higher in males of those species that exhibit territoriality. Hence, we show for the first time that territoriality may impose a survivorship cost on males, once the underlying phylogenetic relationships are accounted for.

description: In the field of laser driven particle acceleration, many experiments with plain foil targets have been performed to investigate ion acceleration mechanisms such as TNSA and BOA. A more complex target geometry, for which the front and rear surface can be structured in a deterministic way, will lead to a better understanding of e.g. the actual source size, laser contrast related effect to the coupling efficiency of laser energy into the target of specifically shaped target surfaces or means to reduce the particle beam divergence such as ballistic focusing. A promising technology to manufacture complex 3D freeform targets is the two-photon-polymerization. With resolutions better than 200 nm, it is possible to create small targets with microstructured surfaces. We implemented the combination of two-photon-polymerization and UV-lithography to facilitate the handling of such small structures.

description: Understanding, and therefore measuring, factors that determine fitness is a central problem in evolutionary biology. We studied a natural population of Coenagrion puella (Odonata: Zygoptera) over two entire breeding seasons, with over a thousand individuals uniquely marked and genotyped, and all mating events at the rendezvous site recorded. Using a parentage analysis, fitness of individuals in the first generation was quantified as the numbers of offspring that survived to maturity. Although mating behaviour can be predicted by environmental and demographical variables, the numbers of mature offspring produced (fitness) cannot, and crucially, are poorly correlated with behavioural observations of mating. While fitness of both sexes was positively related to mating behaviour and to female’s ectoparasite burden, these behavioural observations explained little more variance in offspring production than environmental and demographical variables. Thus, we demonstrate that behavioural measures of reproductive success are not necessarily reliable estimates of fitness in natural populations.

description: Annotation hat sich von einer analog geprägten Kulturtechnik, deren Geschichte sich bis in die Antike zurückverfolgen lässt, hin zu einer digitalen Praktik entwickelt, die in verschiedenen Spannungsfeldern verortet werden kann. Sie wird einerseits als alltagsweltliche Rezeptions-, aber auch Kommunikationsform vollzogen (und ist somit potenzieller Gegenstand von linguistischen Untersuchungen, z.B. Hashtag-Analysen), andererseits auch als wissenschaftliche Methode angewendet. Methodisch bildet sie eine Schnittstelle zwischen hermeneutischer und automatisiert-quantifizierender Analyse. Aus diskurslinguistischer Perspektive verbindet das Annotieren wissenschaftliche Metadiskursivität mit diskursiver Involviertheit. Diese Verortungen werden im vorliegenden Aufsatz diskutiert und anhand von konkreten Annotationsprojekten veranschaulicht. Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei das kollaborativ-diskursive Annotieren als wissenschaftliche Methode in der digitalen (Diskurs-)Linguistik.

description: Ce mémoire professionnel s’intéresse aux relations entre les enseignants et les parents d’élèves. Ce travail cherche à déterminer chez les enseignants les facteurs qui les influencent au sein de ces relations. Cette recherche qualitative tente de répondre à la question suivante : du point de vue des enseignants 5-6, quels sont les facteurs qui influencent leur partenariat éducatif avec les parents d’élèves ? Je suis parti du postulat que si les enseignants explicitent clairement leurs attentes en matière d’éducation aux parents, ces derniers émettent les comportements attendus. Outre la manière de communiquer, j’ai tenté de vérifier l’influence sur le partenariat éducatif de facteurs propres à l’enseignant, tel que les contraintes liées au temps, l’importance de l’affect, le rapport des enseignantes au pouvoir ou leur investissement professionnel. Pour finir, j’ai émis l’hypothèse que les années d’expérience des enseignants influencent leur partenariat éducatif avec les parents. Dans le but de valider ou réfuter les trois hypothèses ci-dessus, j’ai interrogé quatre enseignantes évoluant en 5-6H au moyen d’une grille d’entretien. Ces entretiens semi-directifs ont ensuite été retranscrits fidèlement pour pouvoir être analysés à l’aide des concepts suivants : la communication, l’expérience des enseignants, la confiance mutuelle et la place occupée par les enseignantes au sein du partenariat éducatif. Cette analyse a mené à la validation des trois hypothèses. En revanche, elles ne sont pas applicables à un partenariat éducatif, car les enseignantes interrogées ne mènent pas une relation de ce type avec les parents de leurs élèves. En effet, les attentes éducatives ne sont pas suffisamment explicitées. De plus, une confiance mutuelle n’a pas été observée lors des entretiens. Pour finir, les enseignantes expérimentées sont plus sûres d’elles et abordent plus facilement les thématiques complexes pouvant déboucher sur des tensions avec les parents. Ce dernier point met en exergue l’importance de former de manière plus aboutie les futurs enseignants aux relations avec les parents.

description: It is well-known that positions are processed on the local ellipsoids adopted for geodetic computation in a country. In Nigeria, some of the geographic coordinates of the control stations were determined on the WGS 84 ellipsoid. The connection of new works to these control stations requires their transformation to the local ellipsoid, Clarke 1880 coordinates using suitable datum transformation software to make them fit into existing local geodetic networks. Consequently, this paper has comparatively analyzed the accuracy of some geodetic datum transformation software to determine the most suitable one for transformation between WGS 84 and Minna Datums. The positions of five points were obtained from the processing of GNSS observations using Compass post-processing software. The WGS 84 geographic coordinates of the points were transformed and converted to rectangular coordinates in the Minna datum using Columbus, AllTrans and GeoCalc software. The transformed and converted coordinates of the points were compared with the rectangular coordinates of the points obtained with Compass software to determine the most suitable software for application between WGS 84 and Minna Datums. The comparison results show that Columbus and AllTrans software are more appropriate for the exercise.

description: SARS-CoV-2 is the most dreaded pandemic in a century. Its evolution is characterized by an initial infectious viral phase and another reactive immunological which can be lethal. The inhibition of viral replication is therefore only a part of the treatment and management of the dysimmune disorder is a crucial step in the care of patients. This immunological phase calls on molecules widely used in rheumatology and whose effectiveness in COVID-19 (apart from the required scientific conformism) must challenge the importance of our therapeutic arsenal in the treatment of auto-inflammatory diseases whose evolution without adequate treatment could be a slow-motion image of that of COVID-19.

description: 1. Age-dependent increases in mortality have been documented in a variety of species of insect under laboratory conditions. However, while strong statistical evidence has been presented for senescence in vertebrate populations in the wild, we know little about the rate and shape of senescence in wild populations of insects. 2. Odonates (damselflies and dragonflies) provide excellent candidate species for evaluating demographic senescence as they are large enough to be marked individually and they are easily re-sighted without recapture. The prevailing opinion – based entirely on qualitative examination of the declines in log numbers alive with time since marking – is that odonates exhibit age-independent daily survivorship. 3. Here, we examine mark–recapture data on the Azure Damselfly Coenagrion puella over two consecutive seasons. For the first time, we evaluate and compare the fit of quantitative models that not only account for weather-dependent daily variation in daily re-sighting rates, but also age-dependent variation in daily survivorship. 4. Models with age-dependent declines in daily survivorship provide a more parsimonious explanation for the data than similar models without these age-dependent effects. In general, models in which mortality increases in an exponential (Gompertz) fashion explain the mark–recapture sequences more efficiently than a range of alternative models, including those in which mortality increases as a power function (Weibull) or reaches a plateau (logistic). These results are indicative of a general senescent decline in physiological functioning, which is particularly marked after 15 days as a mature adult. 5. Weather (temperature, sun and precipitation) and initial mite load influenced the probability of daily re-sighting. Weather and mite load also influenced daily survivorship, but their effects differed between seasons. 6. Overall, fitting models with age as an explicit covariate demonstrates that odonates do indeed senesce. This contradicts previously held assumptions that Odonata do not exhibit age-dependent survivorship in the wild.

description: 1. This study investigated inter-specific variation in parasitism by gregarines (Eugregarinorida: Actinocephalidae), among sibling species of damselflies (Odonata: Zygoptera), in relation to relative size of geographical ranges of host species. 2. Gregarines are considered generalist parasites, particularly for taxonomically related host species collected at the same sites or area. Prevalence and median intensity of gregarine parasitism was obtained for 1338 adult damselflies, representing 14 species (7 sibling species pairs) across 3 families within the suborder Zygoptera. Damselflies were collected at three local sites in Southeastern Ontario, during the same periods over the season. 3. Five out of seven species pairs had significant differences in parasitism between sibling species. The less widespread host species was the more parasitised for three species pairs with significant differences in gregarine prevalence, and for two species pairs with differences in median intensity. The more widespread host had a higher intensity of infection as expected, in two species pairs. 4. Future studies on ecological determinants of parasitism among related species should examine robust measures of abundance of species and representation of species regionally.

Remarks: It appears that Rolston (1992) misread the data on the labels. The female examined is labeled: “ Argentina: Ledeimo [sic. Ledesma], Jujuy 11-48, P. Wygodzinsky”. Rolston interpreted the ‘Jujuy’ to be part of the date ‘July’. So, even though this is one of the specimens Rolston reported in the literature, no one has actually reported a province.

description: To ensure accurate positioning of points acquired through DGPS/GNSS observations on the WGS84 ellipsoid in each country, transformation parameters must be applied. This is because positions are determined with respect to the local datum/ellipsoid used for geodetic computation in each country. Prior to the publication of new/unified transformation parameters by the Office of the Surveyor-General of the Federation (OSGOF), multinational oil companies in Nigeria used various sets of transformation parameters. As a result, it's necessary to verify which positions computed with the old sets of transformation parameters agree with those computed using the new/unified ones. This study compares positions computed from DGPS/GNSS observations using both old and new transformation parameters. Four different points were observed and processed using Compass post-processing software, and the resulting coordinates were compared. The comparison showed that the positions computed using three different sets of transformation parameters (SPDC, AGIP, and DMA) agree with those computed using the unified ones. It is recommended that the datum shift parameters previously determined and used by the SPDC, AGIP, and DMA are accurate and can be used for position calculation in Nigeria.

description: Conservation through the protection of particular habitats is predicated on the assumption that the conservation value of those habitats is stable. We test this assumption for ponds by investigating temporal variation in macroinvertebrate and macrophyte communities over a 10-year period in northwest England. We surveyed 51 ponds in northern England in 1995/6 and again in 2006, identifying all macrophytes (167 species) and all macroinvertebrates (221 species, excluding Diptera) to species. The alpha-diversity, beta-diversity and conservation value of these ponds were compared between surveys. We find that invertebrate species richness increased from an average of 29.5 species to 39.8 species between surveys. Invertebrate gamma-diversity also increased between the two surveys from 181 species to 201 species. However, this increase in diversity was accompanied by a decrease in beta-diversity. Plant alpha-, beta- and gamma-diversity remained approximately constant between the two periods. However, increased proportions of grass species and a complete loss of charophytes suggests that the communities are undergoing succession. Conservation value was not correlated between sampling periods in either plants or invertebrates. This was confirmed by comparing ponds that had been disturbed with those that had no history of disturbance to demonstrate that levels of correlation between surveys were approximately equal in each group of ponds. This study has three important conservation implications: (i) a pond with high diversity or high conservation value may not remain that way and so it is unwise to base pond conservation measures upon protecting currently-speciose habitats; (ii) maximising pond gamma-diversity requires a combination of late and early succession ponds, especially for invertebrates; and (iii) invertebrate and plant communities in ponds may require different management strategies if succession occurs at varying rates in the two groups.

description: Climate-induced range shifts result in the movement of a sample of genotypes from source populations to new regions. The phenotypic consequences of those shifts depend upon the sample characteristics of the dispersive genotypes, which may act to either constrain or promote phenotypic divergence, and the degree to which plasticity influences the genotype–environment interaction. We sampled populations of the damselfly Erythromma viridulum from northern Europe to quantify the phenotypic (latitude–body size relationship based on seven morphological traits) and genetic (variation at microsatellite loci) patterns that occur during a range expansion itself. We find a weak spatial genetic structure that is indicative of high gene flow during a rapid range expansion. Despite the potentially homogenizing effect of high gene flow, however, there is extensive phenotypic variation among samples along the invasion route that manifests as a strong, positive correlation between latitude and body size consistent with Bergmann's rule. This positive correlation cannot be explained by variation in the length of larval development (voltinism). While the adaptive significance of latitudinal variation in body size remains obscure, geographical patterns in body size in odonates are apparently underpinned by phenotypic plasticity and this permits a response to one or more environmental correlates of latitude during a range expansion.

description: Psoriatic arthritis is chronic inflammatory rheumatism that is accompanied by numerous co-morbidities, including cardiovascualar diseases. The relationship between psoriatic arthritis and cardiovascular risk is well established. This can be explained by the increased coexistence of different modifiable and non-modifiable cardiovascular risk factors, with the important role of chronic systemic inflammation that promotes the formation and progression of atherosclerosis, a key factors in the development of cardiovascular diseases. The most common cardiovascular diseases in psoriatic arthritis are myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, and cerebrovascular disease.

description: Evolutionary hypotheses for ageing generally predict that delayed senescence should evolve in organisms that experience lower extrinsic mortality. Thus, one might expect species that are highly toxic or venomous (i.e. chemically protected) will have longer lifespans than related species that are not likewise protected. This remarkable relationship has been suggested to occur in amphibians and snakes. First, we show that chemical protection is highly conserved in several lineages of amphibians and snakes. Therefore, accounting for phylogenetic autocorrelation is critical when conservatively testing evolutionary hypotheses because species may possess similar longevities and defensive attributes simply through shared ancestry. Herein, we compare maximum longevity of chemically protected and nonprotected species, controlling for potential nonindependence of traits among species using recently available phylogenies. Our analyses confirm that longevity is positively correlated with body size in both groups which is consistent with life-history theory. We also show that maximum lifespan was positively associated with chemical protection in amphibian species but not in snakes. Chemical protection is defensive in amphibians, but primarily offensive (involved in prey capture) in snakes. Thus, we find that although chemical defence in amphibians favours long life, there is no evidence that chemical offence in snakes does the same.

description: Palatable (Batesian) mimics of unprofitable models could use behavioral mimicry to compensate for the ease with which they can be visually discriminated or to augment an already close morphological resemblance. We evaluated these contrasting predictions by assaying the behavior of 57 field-caught species of mimetic hover flies (Diptera: Syrphidae) and quantifying their morphological similarity to a range of potential hymenopteran models. A purpose-built phylogeny for the hover flies was used to control for potential lack of independence due to shared evolutionary history. Those hover fly species that engage in behavioral mimicry (mock stinging, leg waving, wing wagging) were all large wasp mimics within the genera Spilomyia and Temnostoma. While the behavioral mimics assayed were good morphological mimics, not all good mimics were behavioral mimics. Therefore, while the behaviors may have evolved to augment good morphological mimicry, they do not advantage all good mimics.

Opaque response generation: enabling automatic creation of virtual services for service virtualisation

description: Large enterprise software systems make many complex interactions with other services. Developing and testing production-like conditions for testing is challenging. Service virtualisation is a technique to provide production- like conditions, where models of services are virtualised to provide more realistic scale and less complicated configuration. We present the opaque response generation approach for creating virtual service models. This approach enables services to be virtualised automatically without any knowledge of system protocol and interaction behaviours. Experimental results show our opaque response generation approach can generate accurate responses in real time with an accuracy rate over 99% on average.

description: As selective pressures are altered by the changing climate, species have been shown to shift their distributions. Here we investigate morphological variation in dispersal-related traits between core and marginal populations in three species of Odonata, a taxon that is known to be expanding polewards. We sampled individuals of (i) Calopteryx splendens, a species with a rapidly expanding range, (ii)Erythromma najas, a species with a slowly expanding range, and (iii) Pyrrhosoma nymphula, a species that does not exhibit a range margin in the UK (as a control). Only C. splendens exhibited consistent trends within two dispersal-related traits (wing:abdomen length ratio and aspect ratio). This result suggests that proximity to range margin alone does not account for variations in damselfly morphology, but that the rate of range expansion may also be important in determining variation.

The impact of climate-induced distributional changes on the validity of biological water quality metrics

description: We present data on the distributional changes within an order of macroinvertebrates used in biological water quality monitoring. The British Odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) have been shown to be expanding their range northwards and this could potentially affect the use of water quality metrics. The results show that the families of Odonata that are used in monitoring are shifting their ranges poleward and that species richness is increasing through time at most UK latitudes. These past distributional shifts have had negligible effects on water quality indicators. However, variation in Odonata species richness (particularly in species-poor regions) has a significant effect on water quality metrics. We conclude with a brief review of current and predicted responses of aquatic macroinvertebrates to environmental warming and maintain that caution is warranted in the use of such dynamic biological indicators.

description: 1. The extent to which individuals are parasitised is a function of exposure to parasites and the immune response, which in ectotherms may be associated with temperature. 2. We test the hypothesis that seasonal variation in ectoparasite burden is driven by temperature using an extensive mark-release-recapture study of adult Coenagrion puella (L.) (Zygoptera) as a model system. Mite counts were taken both at capture and on a subset of subsequent recaptures over two entire, consecutive breeding seasons. 3. Emergence date was the most significant factor in determining individual differences in mite burden, and mean counts for individuals emerging on the same days showed strong unimodal relationships with time of season. Subsequent recounting of mites on a subset of individuals showed that patterns of loss of mites were similar between seasons. 4. While temperature did not significantly affect mite burdens within seasons and ectoparasite prevalence was very similar across the two seasons, intensity of infection and rate of mite gain in unparasitised individuals were significantly higher in the cooler season. 5. We demonstrate that, while temperature may modulate the invertebrate immune response, this modulation does not manifest in variations in mite burdens in natural populations.
