Chaetotaxy: Prescutellar acrostichal seta approximately 2/5 length posterior dorsocentral. Acrostichal setulae in 8 rows. Intra post-alar small. Fore tibia with medial seta. Mid femur with 1 long, curved posterodistal seta. Katepisternum with one smaller additional seta.
Colouration: Setae dark brown, setulae brown. Halter entirely yellow. Calypter margin and hairs light brown. Body colour brown.
Genitalia: Halves of subepandrial sclerite broadly joined medially, with one pair of anterodorsal lobes and one pair of lateromedial setae. Surstylus very thin, fused to epandrium and with two apical setae. Posteroventral margin of epandrium extended into thin process with single inner-apical tubercle-like seta. Hypandrium elongate and narrow with short apical apodeme. Basiphallus with small dorsobasal sclerite and subrectangular left lateral plate that narrows basally. Hypophallus thin, sclerotized, hooked, and held away from remainder of phallus by membranous folds reinforced by several ill-defined and lightly sclerotized bands. Fused mesophallus + distiphallus forming a clear, thin tubule slightly longer than basiphallus with apex recurved and ending in a broad membranous fold.
Host. Unknown.
Distribution. Seychelles (Aldabra Atoll).
Etymology. The specific name is derived from the Latin for “islander” [nesiote].
Material examined. SEYCHELLES. Aldabra: South Island, Cinq Cases, 3–16.i.1968, B. Cogan & A. Hutson (1♂, BMNH).
Comments. The male terminalia of Japanagromyza nesiota and J. salicifolii are relatively similar, exhibiting a long, narrow surstylus (Fig. 22), a left lateral sclerotization on the basiphallus, a long, dark, rod-like hypophallus (Fig. 24), and a clear, flagellate and fused meso/distiphallus. The external terminalia of J. nesiota are far less tuberculate, however, the epandrium is strongly produced ventrally, and the hypophallus is hooked. Furthermore, J. salicifolii only occurs in temperate north Africa on Salicaceae and is recognizable by an entirely white calypter and bluish colouration.

description: Aphelenchoides paranechaleos Hooper & Ibrahim, 1994
A. paranechaleos was extracted from stems of rice in Vietnam and, like A. nechaleos, mistakenly thought to be A. besseyi (Hooper & Ibrahim 1994). It is also similar to A. nechaleos but their populations are unable to interbreed (Hooper & Ibrahim 1994). According to our data A. nechaleos, A. paranechaleos, A. arachidis and A. besseyi are the only four species in this genus considered as plant-parasites of rice; further surveys are needed to confirm A. bicaudatus' parasitism on this crop (Escuer & Bello 2000; Jen et al. 2012) (Fig. 3).

description: Genus Micronoctua Fibiger, 1997
Micronoctua Fibiger, 1997, Nota Lepidopterologica 20: 24. Type-species: Micronoctua karsholti Fibiger, 1997.
The genus Micronoctua, which is also the type genus for the family Micronoctuidae Fibiger, 2005, was erected as monotypic with the species, Micronoctua karsholti Fibiger, 1997, originally placed in the polyphyletic subfamily Acontiinae (sensu auctorum; the ‘traditional’ place for many small genera). The shape of the structures especially the ampulla and the bifid hindwing venation (misinterpreted by Fibiger, 1997) are two of the many unique character states that define the family. These characters are listed by Fibiger (1997, 2007) and Fibiger & Lafontaine (2005) and are to some extent also repeated below. The species Miconoctua karsholti does not occur in East Asia, but is illustrated here and briefly diagnosed for comparison with the Far Eastern species.
The first instars are unknown except for the unusually large, but normal noctuoid eggs of several species, 1st larval instar of several species, and 1st and 2nd instars of one species. In captivity only some larvae were successfully fed on mushrooms. During preparation and maceration of the female abdomen a maximum of only 20 very large eggs has been observed. The moths are attracted to both superactinic tubes and HG light-bulbs. Adults have multiple generations.

description: The interest in mobile platforms across a variety of applications has increased significantly in recent years. One of the reasons is the ability to achieve accurate navigation by using low-cost sensors. To this end, inertial sensors are fused with global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) signals. GNSS outages during platform operation can result in pure inertial navigation, causing the navigation solution to drift. In such situations, periodic trajectories with dedicated algorithms were suggested to mitigate the drift. With periodic dynamics, inertial deep learning approaches can capture the motion more accurately and provide accurate dead-reckoning for drones and mobile robots. In this paper, we propose approaches to extend deep learning-assisted inertial sensing and fusion capabilities during periodic motion. We begin by demonstrating that fusion between GNSS and inertial sensors in periodic trajectories achieves better accuracy compared to straight-line trajectories. Next, we propose an empowered network architecture to accurately regress the change in distance of the platform. Utilizing this network, we drive a hybrid approach for a neural-inertial fusion filter. Finally, we utilize this approach for situations when GNSS is available and show its benefits. A dataset of 337 minutes of data collected from inertial sensors mounted on a mobile robot and a quadrotor is used to evaluate our approaches.

description: We present a novel realization of leptogenesis from the decays of sterile (right-handed) neutrinos (RHNs) produced from runaway bubble collisions at a first order phase transition. Such configurations can produce heavy RHNs with mass many orders of magnitude above the scale of symmetry breaking as well as the temperature of the plasma, thereby enabling high scale leptogenesis without the need for high reheat temperatures while also naturally suppressing washout effects. This mechanism also extends the window of viability to RHN masses $\gtrsim 10^{14}$ GeV, the natural scale for type-I seesaw with $\mathcal{O}(1)$ couplings, where standard thermal leptogenesis cannot produce the observed baryon asymmetry. The corresponding phase transitions are at scales $\gtrsim\!10^9$ GeV and produce gravitational wave signals that could be detected by future experiments.

description: Aphelenchoides ritzemabosi (Schwartz, 1911) Steiner & Buhrer, 1932a
After A. fragariae, A. ritzemabosi has the highest number of reported hosts in both flowering plants and ferns (Table 1, Fig. 1). It is particularly problematic on Chrysanthemum L. and has previously been reported from circa 200 plant species (Escuer & Bello 2000, McCuiston 2007). That number increases to 321 in this paper with 314 flowering plants and seven ferns (Table 1). Escuer & Bello (2000) mentioned that several weed species or noncultivated plants are suitable hosts for this species and further studies should be addressed to confirm this possibility. Reports in Asteraceae Bercht. & J. Pres are especially numerous (see online database) and around 85 species of this family have been mentioned as associated plants with A. ritzemabosi.

description: Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) have emerged as a robust framework for solving Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) by approximating their solutions via neural networks and imposing physics-based constraints on the loss function. Traditionally, Multilayer Perceptrons (MLPs) have been the neural network of choice, with significant progress made in optimizing their training. Recently, Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (KANs) were introduced as a viable alternative, with the potential of offering better interpretability and efficiency while requiring fewer parameters. In this paper, we present a fast JAX-based implementation of grid-dependent Physics-Informed Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (PIKANs) for solving PDEs, achieving up to 84 times faster training times than the original KAN implementation. We propose an adaptive training scheme for PIKANs, introducing an adaptive state transition technique to avoid loss function peaks between grid extensions, and a methodology for designing PIKANs with alternative basis functions. Through comparative experiments, we demonstrate that the adaptive features significantly enhance solution accuracy, decreasing the L^2 error relative to the reference solution by up to 43.02%. For the studied PDEs, our methodology approaches or surpasses the results obtained from architectures that utilize up to 8.5 times more parameters, highlighting the potential of adaptive, grid-dependent PIKANs as a superior alternative in scientific and engineering applications.

description: Prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging provides a tremendously exciting frontier in visualization of prostate cancer (PCa) metastatic lesions. However, accurate segmentation of metastatic lesions is challenging due to low signal-to-noise ratios and variable sizes, shapes, and locations of the lesions. This study proposes a novel approach for automated segmentation of metastatic lesions in PSMA PET/CT 3D volumetric images using 2D denoising diffusion probabilistic models (DDPMs). Instead of 2D trans-axial slices or 3D volumes, the proposed approach segments the lesions on generated multi-angle maximum intensity projections (MA-MIPs) of the PSMA PET images, then obtains the final 3D segmentation masks from 3D ordered subset expectation maximization (OSEM) reconstruction of 2D MA-MIPs segmentations. Our proposed method achieved superior performance compared to state-of-the-art 3D segmentation approaches in terms of accuracy and robustness in detecting and segmenting small metastatic PCa lesions. The proposed method has significant potential as a tool for quantitative analysis of metastatic burden in PCa patients.

A. saprophilus was described as being commonly found in rotting plant tissues (Franklin 1957) and has been found parasitizing garlic (Allium sativum L., Amaryllidaceae) on which it could be an important pest (Singh et al. 2013). This nematode was intercepted from Aralia sp. (Araliaceae Juss.) at ports in Canada (Sewell 1977) and from Festuca vaginata Waldst. & Kit. ex Willd. clumps (Poaceae) (Krnjaic & Krnjaic 1976) but a parasitic relationship with these plant species needs to be confirmed.

Material. 3 LV, 3 RV, Lüderitz Bay, Namibia, ZMH K­ 30070. These specimens were studied but not illustrated by Hartmann (1989).
Distribution. Lüderitz Bay, Namibia, Southeastern Atlantic.
Measurements. A LV, L 1.34mm, H 0.82mm; (A­?1) RV, L 1.17–1.20mm, H 0.62–0.64mm; (A­?2) LV, L 0.98–1.00mm, H 0.60mm; (A­?2) RV, L 0.99mm, H 0.54mm.
Description. LV subtriangular in lateral view, anterior conspicuously more broadly rounded than posterior, fairly caudate, dorsal margin steeply angulate, posterior margin upswung. LV subhexagonal in lateral view, anterior conspicuously more broadly rounded than posterior, slightly caudate, dorsal tri­segmented, but with inconspicuous angles, anterior and posterior segments slightly concave, posterior margin upswung. Valve surface punctuated. Normal pore canals with faint rim, sensilla short to long. Fringes present on anterior and posterior margins of RV. Calcified inner lamella narrow, vestibules constricted. Hinge anterior and posterior elements with 3 fairly conspicuous denticles and sockets. Nine adductor muscle scars present, eight of them positioned in a circle surrounding the ninth scar.
Remarks. The specimens herein identified as Bairdoppilata sp. 6 were also identified by Hartmann (1974) as Bairdoppilata sp. 44, and assigned to B. simplex by Dingle (2003). Bairdoppilata sp. 6 differs from B. simplex and? B. labiata, because the former species presents: (1) punctuate valve surface (Fig. 17.A); (2) more acute, non­denticulate posterior margin of RV (Fig. 17.E–F); (3) more conspicuous hinge denticulation; (4) anterior and posterior barbed fringes on RV (Fig. 17.C, F, G).
Considering the six valves studied herein, maybe the smaller, more angulate and caudate specimens (Fig. 17.N–P) belong to another species than the larger specimens (Fig. 17.A–M).

description: We present the first hard-constraint neural network for predicting activity coefficients (HANNA), a thermodynamic mixture property that is the basis for many applications in science and engineering. Unlike traditional neural networks, which ignore physical laws and result in inconsistent predictions, our model is designed to strictly adhere to all thermodynamic consistency criteria. By leveraging deep-set neural networks, HANNA maintains symmetry under the permutation of the components. Furthermore, by hard-coding physical constraints in the network architecture, we ensure consistency with the Gibbs-Duhem equation and in modeling the pure components. The model was trained and evaluated on 317,421 data points for activity coefficients in binary mixtures from the Dortmund Data Bank, achieving significantly higher prediction accuracies than the current state-of-the-art model UNIFAC. Moreover, HANNA only requires the SMILES of the components as input, making it applicable to any binary mixture of interest. HANNA is fully open-source and available for free use.

description: Foreigners and "estrangeirados", an expression meaning "people going to a foreign country ["estrangeiro"] getting there further education", had a leading role in the development of Mathematical Statistics in Portugal. In what concerns Statistics, "estrangeirados" in the nineteenth century were mainly liberal intellectuals exiled for political reasons. From 1930 onwards, the research funding authority sent university professors abroad, and hired foreign researchers to stay in Portuguese institutions, and some of them were instrumental in the importation of new concepts and methods of inferential statistics. After 1970, there was a huge program of sending young researchers abroad for doctoral studies. At the same time, many new universities and polytechnic institutes have been created in Portugal. After that, aside from foreigners who choose to have a research career in those institutions and the "estrangeirados" who had returned and created programs of doctoral studies, others, who hadn't the opportunity of studying abroad, began to play a decisive role in the development of Statistics in Portugal. The publication of handbooks on Probability and Statistics, thesis and core papers in Portuguese scientific journals, and also of works for the layman, reveals how Statistics progressed from descriptive to a mathematical discipline used for inference in all fields of knowledge, from natural sciences to methodology of scientific research.

Prescutellar acrostichal seta relatively small, less than 1/3 length of posterior dorsocentral. Katepisternum with additional 1–2 smaller setae. Fore tibia with one medial seta. Mid femur with curved posterodistal seta.
Colouration: Setae and setulae black. Halter white with stem light brown to brown. Calypter margin and hairs light brown. Body dark brown with relatively distinct green shine (more so than in Afrotropical congeners). Wing veins becoming brownish-white posteriorly.
Host. Unknown.
Distribution. RSA.
Material examined. REPUBLIC OF SOUTH AFRICA. Ndumo Game R., main road at: 26˚54.288’S, 32˚17.974’E, 4–8.xii.2009, A.H. Kirk-Spriggs (7♀, BMSA).
Comments. This series of females is described because it is clearly distinct from other African Japanagromyza, but it is not provided with an official name because of the importance of male genitalic features in the diagnosis and definition species in this genus. The species is characterized by a relatively distinct greenish shine, a pale halter and wing veins, a short prescutellar acrostichal, relatively small size, and an atypical ocellar triangle and clypeus.

Mimachrostia Sugi, 1892, In Inoue et al., Moths of Japan. Vol. 2: 893. Type-species: Mimachrostia fasciata Sugi, 1982.
Species of Mimachrostia have several unique external and internal features: the weakly marked reniform stigma; the shape of the 8th tergite and sternite, the former with a prominent crest; and the easily observable ostium bursae hole on the left side of the abdomen. The genus Mimachrostia was erected for two species, M. fasciata and M. owadai Sugi, 1982, however, the latter belongs to another genus (Fibiger in prep.). The genus was originally placed in the subfamily Ophiderinae (sensu auctorum). The structures of the tergite and sternite of the type species of Mimachrostia are unique; similar shapes have not been found in other groups of Micronoctuidae. On the basis of several synapomorphies in the abdomen and male and female genitalia Mimachrostia is a member of a phylogenetically ancestral subfamily of Micronoctuidae (Fibiger in prep.).

A. sphaerocephalus was described from Evodia roxburghiana Benth. (Rutaceae Juss.) on dry leaves with yellow specks (Goodey 1953). This is the only known host for this nematode (UCDavis' Nemabase 2010), and to the best of our knowledge, that report is also the only one on the family Rutaceae for any plant-parasitic Aphelenchoides. It should be noted that Ditylenchus drepanocercus Goodey, 1953 (Tylenchida Thorne, 1949: Anguinidae Nicoll, 1935) was found occurring with A. sphaerocephalus in the same symptomatic samples (Goodey 1953).

description: From lattice-regularized models, devoid of any non-Hermitian (NH) skin effects, here we compute the electrical ($σ_{xy}$), thermal ($κ_{xy}$), and spin ($σ^{sp}_{xy}$) Hall, and the electrical ($G_{xx}$) and thermal ($G^{th}_{xx}$) longitudinal conductivities for appropriate NH planar topological insulators and superconductors related to all five non-trivial Altland-Zirbauer symmetry classes in their Hermitian limits. These models feature real eigenvalues over an extended NH parameter regime, only where the associated topological invariants remain quantized. In this regime, the NH quantum anomalous and spin Hall insulators show quantized $σ_{xy}$ and $G_{xx}$, respectively, the NH $p+ip$ ($p \pm ip$) pairing shows half-quantized $κ_{xy}$ ($G^{th}_{xx}$), while the NH $d+id$ pairing shows quantized $κ_{xy}$ and $σ^{sp}_{xy}$ in the clean and weak disorder (due to random pointlike charge impurities) regimes. We compute these quantities in experimentally realizable suitable six-terminal setups using the Kwant software package. But, in the strong disorder regime, all these topological responses vanish and with the increasing non-Hermiticity in the system this generic phenomenon occurs at weaker disorder.

description: We present a detailed analysis of the velocity structure of the hot intracluster medium (ICM) within the A3266 galaxy cluster, including new observations taken between June and November 2023. Firstly, morphological structures within the galaxy cluster were examined using a Gaussian Gradient Magnitude (GGM) and adaptively smoothed GGM filter applied to the EPIC-pn X-ray image. Then, we applied a novel {\it XMM-Newton} EPIC-pn energy scale calibration, which uses instrumental Cu K$α$ as reference for the line emission, to measure line-of-sight velocities of the hot gas within the system. This approach enabled us to create two-dimensional projected maps for velocity, temperature, and metallicity, showing that the hot gas displays a redshifted systemic velocity relative to the cluster redshift across all fields of view. Further analysis of the velocity distribution through non-overlapping circular regions demonstrated consistent redshifted velocities extending up to 1125 kpc from the cluster core. Additionally, the velocity distribution was assessed along regions following surface brightness discontinuities, where we observed redshifted velocities in all regions, with the largest velocities reaching $768 \pm 284$ km/s. Moreover, we computed the velocity Probability Density Function (PDF) from the velocity map. We applied a normality test, finding that the PDF adheres to an unimodal normal distribution consistent with theoretical predictions. Lastly, we computed a velocity structure function (VSF) for this system using the measured line-of-sight velocities. These insights advance our understanding of the dynamic processes within the A3266 galaxy cluster and contribute to our broader knowledge of ICM behavior in merging galaxy clusters.

description: Entanglement entropy has emerged as a novel tool for probing nonperturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD) phenomena, such as color confinement in protons. While recent studies have demonstrated its significant capability in describing hadron production in deep inelastic scatterings, the QCD evolution of entanglement entropy remains unexplored. In this work, we investigate the differential rapidity-dependent entanglement entropy within the proton and its connection to final-state hadrons, aiming to elucidate its QCD evolution. Our analysis reveals a strong agreement between the rapidity dependence of von Neumann entropy, obtained from QCD evolution equations, and the corresponding experimental data on hadron entropy. These findings provide compelling evidence for the emergence of a maximally entangled state, offering new insights into the nonperturbative structure of protons.

Material examined: KYRGYZSTAN: 1♂ 1♀ (IBPN), Bishkek, Summer 1992, S.V. Ovtchinnikov leg.
Diagnosis. The species can be identified from D. daemonis sp. n. by the weakly, not strongly, bent tip of the embolus and by the absence of a cymbial spur.
Description. Well described by Spassky (1939), here we provide details only of the copulatory organs.
Male palp (Figs 6–7, 10–13): femur short, almost half length of cymbium, and with small ventral knob (Fk). Patella long, almost as long as femur, with massive dorsal process (Pp) with two lobes, retrolateral (Rl) and dorsal (Dl). Tibia short, cylindrical, with two apophyses: a larger retrolateral (Ra) and smaller prolateral (Pa). Cymbium strongly modified, with large dorso-posterior extension (De) and a retrolateral process (Rp), two times longer than wide; dorsal process with small prolateral outgrowth (Po) and distal large cavity (Cc). Bulbus oval, higher than wide; tegulum (Te) large and extends beyond embolus anteriorly; conductor very short, with almost undeveloped upper arm (Ua); lower arm (La) -simple, with one turn; embolus thick with two small bends in mid section and terminal bend, embolic base large.
Epigyne (Figs 2, 8–9): receptacles (Re) translucent in ventral view, copulatory openings (Co) small, widely spaced. Structure of endogyne vague, without well sclerotized receptacles; the only distinct structures are: the insemination ducts (Id) and an unpaired central plate (Cp) of vague function.
Distribution. The species is known from Central Asia: Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. A record of this species from Kazakhstan (Spassky 1939) refers most likely to D. daemonis sp. n.

description: Quantum computers have proven to be effective in simulating many quantum systems. Simulating nuclear processes and state preparation poses significant challenges, even for traditional supercomputers. This study demonstrates the feasibility of a complete simulation of a nuclear transition, including the preparation of both ground and first excited states. To tackle the complexity of strong interactions between two and three nucleons, the states are modeled on the tritium nucleus. Both the initial and final states are represented using quantum circuits with variational quantum algorithms and inductive biases. Describing the spin-isospin states requires four qubits, and a parameterized quantum circuit that exploits a total of 16 parameters is initialized. The estimated energy has a relative error of approximately 2% for the ground state and about 10% for the first excited state of the system. The simulation estimates the transition probability between the two states as a function of the dipole polarization angle. This work marks a first step towards leveraging digital quantum computers to simulate nuclear physics.

While the MPPA represent 95% of the total reports, the other 10 species have been reported only from a limited number of plants (Table 1). Noteworthy, some of them were reported on hosts with records of the MPPA species, and special attention should be paid in such instances for an accurate identification (Fig. 3). Some plant genera could shelter a combination of the following species: A. blastopthorus + A. subtenuis on Narcissus sp. (Amaryllidaceae), A. blastopthorus + A. fragariae on Begonia sp. (Begoniaceae), A. blastopthorus + A. fragariae + A. ritzemabosi + A. subtenuis on Iris sp. (Iridaceae), A. fragariae + A. ritzemabosi + A. subtenuis on Colchicum sp. (Colchicaceae) and A. ritzemabosi + A. subtenuis on Tulipa sp. (Liliaceae). Species reported from a limited number of plant species in particular locations, i.e. A. ensete, A. nechaleos and A. paranechaleos, require more sampling and laboratory tests to confirm their specificity.

description: Visualization, from simple line plots to complex high-dimensional visual analysis systems, has established itself throughout numerous domains to explore, analyze, and evaluate data. Applying such visualizations in the context of simulation science where High-Performance Computing (HPC) produces ever-growing amounts of data that is more complex, potentially multidimensional, and multimodal, takes up resources and a high level of technological experience often not available to domain experts. In this work, we present DaVE -- a curated database of visualization examples, which aims to provide state-of-the-art and advanced visualization methods that arise in the context of HPC applications. Based on domain- or data-specific descriptors entered by the user, DaVE provides a list of appropriate visualization techniques, each accompanied by descriptions, examples, references, and resources. Sample code, adaptable container templates, and recipes for easy integration in HPC applications can be downloaded for easy access to high-fidelity visualizations. While the database is currently filled with a limited number of entries based on a broad evaluation of needs and challenges of current HPC users, DaVE is designed to be easily extended by experts from both the visualization and HPC communities.

description: Trained neural networks (NN) have attractive features for closing governing equations. There are many methods that are showing promise, but all can fail in cases when small errors consequentially violate physical reality, such as a solution boundedness condition. A NN formulation is introduced to preclude spurious oscillations that violate solution boundedness or positivity. It is embedded in the discretized equations as a machine learning closure and strictly constrained, inspired by total variation diminishing (TVD) methods for hyperbolic conservation laws. The constraint is exactly enforced during gradient-descent training by rescaling the NN parameters, which maps them onto an explicit feasible set. Demonstrations show that the constrained NN closure model usefully recovers linear and nonlinear hyperbolic phenomena and anti-diffusion while enforcing the non-oscillatory property. Finally, the model is applied to subgrid-scale (SGS) modeling of a turbulent reacting flow, for which it suppresses spurious oscillations in scalar fields that otherwise violate the solution boundedness. It outperforms a simple penalization of oscillations in the loss function.
