description: 2. Polyrhachis compressicornis.
P. niger et vestitus pube cinerea; thoraee spinis duabus acutis antice armato; abdominis squamula spinis duabus brevibus armata; pedibus ferrugineis.
Female. Length 51/2 lines. Black and densely clothed with cinereous pile, which has a silvery brightness in certain lights; the mandibles shining black, and longitudinally striated; the antennæ inserted at the sides of two prominent carinæ; the scape compressed, much broader than usual, with the apex widest and thinly covered with short pale glittering pubescence. Thorax: the spines at the lateral angles of the prothorax short, stout, and acute; the mesothorax very convex, with an abbreviated shining carina in the middle anteriorly; the metathorax transverse, abruptly truncated, slightly concave in the middle above; the legs ferruginous, with their articulations and tarsi fuscous. Abdomen ovate; the peduncle subtriangular, a stout, short, acute spine at the lateral angles.
Worker. Length 41/4 lines. Only differs in having the thorax flattened above, with the lateral margins slightly raised; the scape of the antennæ compressed, as in. the female.

Gerbillus (Gerbillus) pulvinatus Rhoads 1896, Proc. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia: 537.
Type Locality: Ethiopia, Lake Rudolf, Rusia.
Vernacular Names: Rhoads's Gerbil.
Synonyms: Gerbillus (Gerbillus) bilensis Frick 1914.
Distribution: Endemic to NE Africa in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and Djibouti.
Conservation: IUCN – Critically Endangered as G. bilensis, Lower Risk (lc) as G. pulvinatus.
Discussion: Subgenus Gerbillus. Lay (1983:339) questioned the synonymy of bilensis with pulvinatus as allocated without comment by F. Petter (1975 b): "Inasmuch as these two forms were described from opposite ends of the rift valley in Ethiopia that are separated by at least 700 km and because they have not been critically compared, G. bilensis should be regarded as distinct pending revision." Until that comparison is available we include bilensis in G. pulvinatus. Yalden et al. (1996) would also include dunni as a synonym of G. pulvinatus. Records from Djibouti are documented by Pearch et al. (2001), who also provided a good description of the species.

description: The well-posedness and regularity properties of diffusion-aggregation equations, emerging from interacting particle systems, are established on the whole space for bounded interaction force kernels by utilizing a compactness convergence argument to treat the nonlinearity as well as a Moser iteration. Moreover, we prove a quantitative estimate in probability with arbitrary algebraic rate between the approximative interacting particle systems and the approximative McKean-Vlasov SDEs, which implies propagation of chaos for the interacting particle systems.

Onukia burmanica (Distant): Baker 1923: 372; Dietrich 2004: 459 –460, figs 3a–b, 4 a–c.
Head and thorax orange yellow, more yellow on anterior part of crown, more orange on remaining crown and pronotum; one median, one lateral marginal spots on either side and one small spot at base of median carina, dark brown. Pronotum with median stripe in posterior half and posterior marginal stripe, fuscous. Median stripe along median carina on frontoclypeus, one submarginal stripe, fuscous. Forewing clavus fuscous with median longitudinal reddish stripe, outer marginal narrow stripe on clavus, vein M, all costal margin, fuscous. Apices of femora and fore tibiae with orange tinge.
Female genitalia. Seventh sternite slightly narrowed posteriorly, posterior margin with deep V-shaped median excavation, lateral angles acutely rounded.
Measurements. Female 6.4 mm long, 1.4 mm wide across eyes and 1.6 mm wide across hind margins of pronotum.
Material examined. MYANMAR: Lectotype ♀ (designated by D.A. Young (1965: 169) (Figs 6 A–D), “Upper Burma, Mamyo, 3500 ft, 19–21.viii.14, Fletcher, Coll.” “Pusa Coll. 1915-164” “ Apphia burmanica Dist. Type [Distant’s hw]” “ Type H. T. [red edged disc]” (BMNH).
Remarks. Originally described from an unspecified number of specimens (syntype) with the following data: “Upper Burma; Maymyo, 3500ft (Bainbrigge Fletcher)”. This species can be readily recognized by its distinctive beautiful coloration. Dietrich (2004) illustrated the male genitalia of a specimen identified as this species from Thailand. The male pygofer has a slender S-shaped ventral process that exceeds the dorsal margin; the aedeagus has strong basal bulbous and distal parts which are separated by a strong ventral marginal constriction, and the dorsolateral lobes are well developed and lack quadrate lobe like processes found in A. flava sp. nov.

Type Locality: Kenya, Ndi and Kitui.
Vernacular Names: Least Gerbil.
Synonyms: Gerbillus (Hendecapleura) diminutus Dollman 1911; Gerbillus (Hendecapleura) percivali Dollman 1914; Gerbillus (Hendecapleura) ruberrimus Rhoads 1896.
Distribution: Tanzania (Swynnerton and Hayman, 1951), Kenya, Ethiopia, and S Sudan (Dieterlen and Nikolaus, 1985).
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc) as G. diminutus, G. percivali, G. ruberrimus, and G. pusillus.
Discussion: Subgenus Hendecapleura. Roche (1975) united these three synonyms with G. pusillus based upon his study of original descriptions and specimens, and F. Petter (1975 b) suggested that all three probably represented G. pusillus. Lay (1983), however, listed G. pusillus and all three synonyms as separate monotypic species pending a revision. We prefer Roche’s conclusion as the hypothesis to be tested because it was derived from specimen examination. Chromosomal data documented by Capanna and Merani (1981). Reviewed by Pavlinov et al. (1990), who also accepted Roche’s synonyms.

P. capite thoraceque subopacis; abdomine sericeo vestito; thoraee spinis duabus longis acutis antice ei postice armato, squamis bispinosis.
Female. Length 7 lines. Black; the head oblong, rugose, and narrowed behind the eyes; the palpi pale testaceous. Thorax: the prothorax armed on each side with a short, stout, acute spine, directed outwards; the mesothorax with a short abbreviated carina in the middle anteriorly, where it is rugose; the metathorax less rugose and with a fine cinereous pile, at each lateral angle is a short, stout, acute spine, pointed outwards; the legs slightly pilose. Abdomen covered with a fine, shining, changeable silky pile, which has a faint golden lustre; the peduncle armed above on each side with a stout, acute, slightly curved spine which is directed outwards.
Hab. Makassar.
This species is of the same size as, and closely resembles, P. sex-spinosus, but differs in not having the head armed posteriorly with spines, and also in the length and direction of the spines on the thorax and peduncle; it is also much more strongly sculptured. The worker only differs in having the thorax narrower, the sides being more parallel, but rather wider anteriorly; the sculpture is the same, as well as the pilosity.

Figs 1 A–B, 4 K, 15 A–F.
Yellowish white, forewing apices whitish, outer margins narrowly dark brown; median spot on crown black.
Male genitalia. Pygofer lobe rather triangular, posterodorsal angle produced into bluntly triangular lobe, with a few short, stout setae at base, posteroventral angle rounded, ventral process slender, long and S-shaped arising at mid length of ventral margin, exceeding pygofer. Subgenital plate elongate, with basal small segment, surface covered with sender and marginal row of stout setae. Style short, apophysis with dorsal triangular lobe like projection at base, apex foot shaped with well developed heel, toe very slender and elongate. Connective Y-shaped, more than twice as long as arms. Aedeagus large swollen, in basal half, extension of atrium well developed, dorsal apodeme plate like, shaft broader at base narrowed apically, with basal pair of quadrate plates more clearly seen both in lateral and ventral view on posterior margin, shaft in lateral view curved anteriorly near apex, gonopore apical, vesica projecting beyond gonopore. Segment X long, lightly pigmented.
Mesurements. Male 5.8–5.95 mm long, 1.15–1.2 mm wide across eyes and 1.3–1.4 mm wide across hind margins of pronotum.
Material examined. Holotype ♂, INDIA: Meghalaya: Nongpoh, 4.xi.1981, S. Viraktamath (UASB). Paratypes 3 ♂, data as for holotype; 1 ♂, data as for holotype but collected by C.A. Viraktamath (BMNH, UASB).
Remarks. This species closely resembles A. burmanica from which it differs in coloration and in having the ventral margin of the basal lobe of the aedeagus strongly rounded instead of slightly convex. From A. assamensis and A. burmanica it differs in having the basal pair of quadrate processes on the aedeagal shaft.

[Dipus] pyramidum Geoffroy 1803, Cat. Mamm. Mus. Natl. Hist. Nat., Paris: 202.
Type Locality: Egypt, Giza Province.
Vernacular Names: Greater Egyptian Gerbil.
Synonyms: Gerbillus (Gerbillus) elbaensis Setzer 1958; Gerbillus (Gerbillus) gedeedus Osborn and Helmy 1980.
Distribution: Documented from Egypt, Nile delta and valley south to Sudan (N Sudan, oases of Western Desert and SE Eastern Desert, and Khartoum region in EC Sudan (see Osborn and Helmy, 1980:97); specimens with same karyotype have been collected from the Mauritanian coast, N Mali, and W Niger, so actual range may extend from coastal Mauritania to Egypt and Sudan (Dobigny et al., 2001 a, b, 2002 b).
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Subgenus Gerbillus. Many authors have viewed this species as ranging extensively from the Sinai throughout North Africa to Morocco and Senegal, and containing many synonyms. Lay (1983), however, discussed the taxonomic quagmire, noting that most synonyms formerly associated with G. pyramidum probably did not represent that species or are presently unidentifiable, and described the wide chromosomal variation in specimens from different geographic regions. "Inasmuch as a distinctive karyotype of 2n = 38 with all biarmed elements has been reported for topotypical material and such a karyotype has not been reported from any locality outside Egypt, it should be assumed that G. pyramidum inhabits only the region mapped by Osborn and Helmy" (Lay, 1983:346). Tawill and Niethammer (1989) discussed the morphological and chromosomal identification of a sample from Khartoum as most probably G. pyramidum. The chromosomal and morphometric analyses of North African samples usually identified as G. pyramidum reinforced the view that it has been recorded only from Egypt and Sudan (Granjon et al., 1999). Dobigny et al. (2001 a), however, reported samples with 2n = 38 from coastal Mauritania, NE Mali, and NW Niger that are "probably referable to G. pyramidum " (see also Dobigny et al., 2002 b), and Granjon et al. (2002 a) identified G. cf. pyramidum as one of the many species of Gerbillus and Dipodillus from the same general region encompassing the subsahelian region of Mauritania, Mali, and W Niger in West Africa. Apparently the species has a wider distribution than realized, a range that overlaps that of its close relative, G. tarabuli. Aspects of G. pyramidum are reviewed by Pavlinov et al. (1990).

Gerbillus (Hendecapleura) watersi de Winton 1901, Novit. Zool., 8: 399.
Type Locality: Sudan, Upper Nile, Shendi.
Vernacular Names: Waters's Gerbil.
Synonyms: Gerbillus (Hendecapleura) juliani (St. Leger 1935).
Distribution: Endemic to NE Africa in Sudan, Somalia, and Djibouti.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc) as G. juliani and G. watersi.
Discussion: Subgenus Hendecapleura. Listed both as a subspecies of G. nanus or as a valid species by F. Petter (1975 b) in the same report. The species should be considered distinct until revisionary studies advise otherwise (Lay, 1983). Roche and Petter (1968) reviewed juliani under Monodia, but F. Petter (1975 b) later synonymized it with G. watersi without supporting evidence. Roche (1975) provided evidence for uniting juliani with G. watersi, an action endorsed by Pavlinov et al. (1990). Lay (1983), however, recognized juliani as valid pending revision of the genus. Pearch et al. (2001) documented records from Djibouti, provided a good description of the species, comparing it with G. henleyi from the same country. Reviewed by Pavlinov et al. (1990).

Figs 6 I –L, 9 F, 16 A–I.
Platyretus himalayanus Distant 1918: 38.
Dark brown. Crown with anterior area yellow with median dark brown spot and median carina yellow. Forewing cinnamon brown with one spot in apical half costal region and one on apical region of outer claval veins, hyaline, dorsal area of face paler than ventral dark brown area, median carina, transverse ridges on frontoclypeus and lateral margins, pale yellow. Legs dirty yellow with bases of setae on hind tibiae brownish.
Male genitalia. Pygofer length in lateral view shorter than height, posterior lobe more or less oval with rounded posterodorsal margin, ventral process slender, S-shaped and long, exceeding dorsal margin. Subgenital plate with lateral margin convexly rounded at midlength, with submarginal row of macrosetae along mesal margin. Style slender, footlike apophysis rather robust, toe with subapical tooth. Connective Y-shaped, stem longer than arms. Aedeagus with extension of atrium short, with ventral angular projection in basal region in lateral view, dorsolateral lobes about 0.66 as long as aedeagus, shorter in height, shaft about 0.25 length of aedeagus, curved anteriorly with ventral blade-like extension, gonopore apical, dorsal apodeme plate-like.
Female genitalia. Seventh sternite about as long as sixth, posterior margin slightly broadly concave medially with broadly rounded lateral angles.
Measurements. Male and female 6.8 mm long, 1.6 mm wide across eyes and 1.8 mm wide across hind margins of pronotum.
Material examined. INDIA: Lectotype ♂ (Figs 6I –J) (here designated), “ Type H. T. [red edged disc]” “E.
Himalayas” “ Platyretus himlayanus Dist. type [Distant’s hw]” “Distant Coll. 1911-383”. 2 ♀, West Bengal: Darjiling dist. Lopchu, leg. Gy. Topal, No. 857, beaten material, 20.x.1967 (BMNH).
Remarks. Originally described from an unspecified number of specimens (syntype) with the following data: “ Eastern Himalayas”. This species externally resembles Onukindia connexa (Distant) (see below). It is more darkly coloured than other Apphia species and hence can readily be recognised. It is only provisionally placed in the genus Apphia as it lacks the basoventral bulbous region of the aedeagus found in other species and also has a differently shaped apophysis of the style. The aedeagus of this species is very similar to that in species of Evacanthus, but the ventral pygofer process is long and slender (short and stout in Evacanthus) and the crown is more conically pointed (conically rounded in Evacanthus).

Ecology: Collected from sandy substrata.
Extralimital distribution: Campaña AUO2/93, Argentina, Buenos Aires, El Rincón area, approx. 39°– 40°S 61°–62°W, 9–20 m (bottom: predominantly sand; gear: Van Veen grab) (GMA 03).
Extralimital depth range: 9– 20 m.
Type material location: MACN, Buenos Aires.
Remarks: Metharpinia iado is the third species belonging to Metharpinia Schellenberg, 1931 recorded from the Magellan area. Alonso de Pina (2001) had described M. protuberantis from this province and had found that the species showed intermediate morphological characters between the genera Metharpinia and Microphoxus Barnard and Barnard, 1960. These genera are complex from the systematic point of view; and examination of more material should be necessary to redefine them.
Metharpinia iado and M. protuberantis can be easily distinguished from each other by the urosomite 3 unprotuberand dorsally and the epimeron 3 with posteroventral corner rounded in the first species whereas the urosomite 3 is produced upwards and the epimeron 3 has its posteroventral corner produced into a large tooth in the second species. Metharpinia iado is closely related to M. longirostris, the first species described by Schellenberg (1931) for the Magellan area, in the general aspect of the body, rostrum, antennae, gnathopods, peraeopods and unprotuberant urosomite 3; they primarily differ from each other in the setal formulas of the antennae, the number of setae of mouthparts, the setation of appendages, and the setal formulas of epimera, uropods and telson.
