(Figures 11–17)
Diagnosis. Ectopsocus gorgonaensis, E. andinus, and E. chiapensis share general characteristics of phallosome structure and clunium. In this group of species the aedeagal arch is stout, and the clunium has a pair of anterolateral tubercular fields, but they differ in that the first one has wings unmarked; the aedeagal arch is stout, keelshaped, the external parameres are proximally slender, distally stout, straight and blunt ended. Also, the clunium has a small papillar field in the middle, next to the clunial comb.
Description. Male. Color. Thoracic tergum and head light brown. Compound eyes black, ocelli hyaline. Forewings light brown with pterostigma slightly darker, hindwings hyaline, with light brown veins. Legs light yellow, coxae with basal half light brown. Abdomen light cream, with dorso-ventral subcuticular, light brown bands.
Morphology. Head as illustrated (Fig. 13). Margins and veins of forewings with slender setae, hindwings with row of 17 setae between R 1 and R 4+5 (Fig. 12). Phallosome with three endophallic sclerites: two small, rounded, and a large, central one, with middle area stout and acuminate, flanked by large quadrate area and stout long lobe, distally blunt (Fig. 16). Hypandrium trapeziform, wider posteriorly; posterior border as illustrated (Fig. 17). Paraprocts ovoid, with nine trichobothria, eight in basal rosettes, without transverse row of setae; marginal spines asymmetric, bifid, short and sharp (Fig. 15). Epiproct bell shaped, setal field and pigmentation as illustrated (Fig. 15). Clunium vase-shaped, wider anteriorly, with two large antero-lateral fields of dense tubercles; posterior field of papillae as in diagnosis; clunial comb with 26 short stout teeth (Fig. 14).

African Philosophy
Global History of Philosophy
Feminist Philosophy
Black Feminism

description: Worldwide, pre-nineteenth-century philosophical works by women are almost entirely undocumented – particularly with respect to the African continent. However, this fact has so far caused little concern to the vast majority of authors. Due to a predominantly masculine perspective in the discipline, the exclusion of women from the canon of the history of philosophy continues to this day. This also applies to attempts to reconstruct the history of African philosophy. Reconstructing the lives and works of Black women philosophers in Africa and the African diaspora is particularly difficult because there are few surviving pre-nineteenth-century philosophical texts written by women. Furthermore, philosophy in oral traditions – and the role of women therein – raises difficult methodological questions. A contemporary revision of the canon of the history of philosophy, however, cannot take place solely from an intercultural or global perspective; it must also address and correct patriarchal structures of exclusion in all regions of the world. The paper discusses the specific challenges of reconstructing the history of Black women philosophers in oral as well as in written traditions, in the latter case, with the help of two examples: Walatta Petros and Phillis Wheatley.

description: MITIDIERI, Maria Cristina de A. A EXPERIÊNCIA ESPORTIVA NOS MUSEUS: Os museus do esporte e a comunicação celebratória do patrimônio esportivo musealizado. Doutorado (Tese) – Programa de Pós Graduação em Museologia e Patrimônio, UNIRIO/MAST, Rio de Janeiro, 2022: 237p. Orientadora: Luisa Maria G. M. Rocha. Esta tese focaliza aspectos da musealização dos bens conexos aos esportes e os contextualiza em relação ao âmbito dos museus especializados, assim como ao campo da museologia. Discute os museus do esporte a partir de sua trajetória como um fenômeno moderno, derivado das transformações ocorridas no âmbito cultural, e os aborda sob o prisma de sua estreita conexão com o ambiente do esporte moderno, permeado por sua face comercial. Originados a partir da conversão de coleções e espaços esportivos para o formato institucional de museus, sua atuação está sujeita aos interesses e às pressões que incidem sobre seus gestores que, motivados pela preservação patrimonial, promovem paralelamente o uso comercial do patrimônio esportivo musealizado, por meio de sua estreita associação a projetos comerciais e de marketing. Os estudos formais sobre esta tipologia de museus enfocam a associação dos objetos de museu a narrativas exclusivas ou excessivamente celebratórias e em sua monetização, face à sustentabilidade financeira do museu e se desenvolvem de forma assíncrona em relação ao campo referencial da museologia. A partir da destacada presença dos museus do esporte no universo dos museus e da relevância do esporte nas sociedades, a pesquisa combinou referências teóricas à pesquisa exploratória, a partir da seleção de um conjunto representativo de instituições. Os resultados confirmam a prevalência das instituições esportivas privadas no universo dos museus do esporte e sua estreita relação com as narrativas que promovem o deslembrar das derrotas e momentos negativos, apresentando uma história esportiva parcial. Conclui que a qualidade de museus especializados em esportes pressupõe a transposição da face comemorativa dos esportes para o ambiente do museu, mas não exclusivamente e em detrimento de outras questões conexas aos esportes. Corrobora a importância da contextualização das narrativas comunicacionais celebratórias dos museus do esporte dentro do âmbito da museologia e da problemática que envolve os processos de musealização, como algo que permite uma análise desses museus especializados a partir de suas particularidades mas, principalmente, que evidencia suas potencialidades.

Design and applications of porphyrin based nanocages for modelling reactivity inside and outside of porous materials
Creators: name: Rothschild, Daniel A.
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2024

description: The incorporation of molecular catalysts into nanoporous materials, such as metal- and covalent organic frameworks, is likely to alter the outer sphere surrounding the active sites. To model the reactivity that occurs within these unique microenvironments, nanocages offer precise mechanistic insight and possess the rigid structure and porosity found within extended frameworks. In this work, a cubic M8L6 nanocage was used to encapsulate a CoII tetra-pyridyl porphyrin in order to provide a protective environment for a light sensitive CoIII-CH3 bond. Then, the development of a new covalent nanocage which is capable of binding fullerenes is discussed, along with an investigation on the electronic properties of the host-guest complexes. In the last chapter, the covalent nanocages are metalated with first row transition metals and used as heterogeneous CO2 electroreduction catalysts. Upon incorporation of fullerenes into the metalated cages to block the interior sites, the performance was enhanced for Fe analogues and relatively unperturbed when using Co, suggesting the hydrophobic pore of this nanocage may not be suitable for carrying out electrochemical transformations in aqueous conditions.

In universities around the world, an effort has been made to include works by female writers on the primary reading lists of literature units at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. In this article, I will examine the primary reading lists of undergraduate and graduate literature units at Kenyatta University, Kenya, and Carleton University, Canada, eventually focussing on research articles that deal with creative work produced by female authors: Kenyan female authors and aboriginal Canadian female authors. It is effectively an examination of how research articles deal with the female characters in creative works such as Yvonne Owuor’s 'Dust'; Rebeka Njau’s 'The Scar'; Jeannette Armstrong’s 'Slash'; and Beatrice Culleton’s 'April Raintree'. This research on gender aspects of university literature curricula will be guided by the critical lens of intersectional feminism; and argues that in carrying out research on creative work by female writers, and focussing on the female characters in those works, critics contribute to intersectional feminism and push the feminist agenda forward; thereby encouraging female writers to keep writing and fostering a positive attitude towards the female gender: thus contributing to reversing discrimination and misogyny.

Nesticus

description: Genus Nesticus Thorell, 1869
Diagnosis. Nesticus resembles Aituaria Esyunin and Efimik, 1998 and Carpathonesticus Lehtinen and Saaristo, 1980, but can be distinguished by the following characters (Esyunin and Efimik, 1998; Le Peru, 2011): 1, Nesticus is distinguished from Aituaria and Carpathonesticus by the embolus long, thin, without modified apex; 2, the median apopysis moderately longer in Nesticus than in Carpathonesticus; 3, the paracymbium distally entire in Nesticus,butmorepointedin AituariaandCarpathonesticus; and 4, epigynal plate wide posteriorly in Nesticus, but wide anteriorly in Aituaria and Carpathonesticus.
Distribution. Nesticus includes 138 species, worldwide distributed, mainly in the United States of America, Japan, and China. Only nine species are present in South America, especially in French Guyana, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and Uruguay. In Argentina, only three of these species were reported (World Spider Catalog, 2015).

Synonymy. Chydorus irinae Smirnov & Sheveleva, 2010, p. 635–637, Figs 1–2; Kotov et al. 2011a, p. 406.
Type locality. "Mouth of the Tom' River" (Smirnov & Sheveleva 2010), Amur Area, Russia.
Locality in Korea. 6a (see Fig. 1 and Table 1).
Parthenogenetic female. In lateral view, body very high, “humped”, as Smirnov & Sheveleva (2010) (Fig. 17 A). Body with strong lateral outgrowths in level of brood pouch (Fig. 17 B), in anterior view these “wings” rounded-triangle in adults (Fig. 17 C) and acute in juveniles (Fig. 17 K). Dorsal head pores typical for the genus (Fig. 17 D–E). Labral keel relatively small, with a rounded apex (Fig. 17 F). In anterior portion of valve there is an inner flap-like projection (Fig. 17 G); reticulation on valves as polygons with rounded angles and undulated edges. In posterior half of ventral margin, setae remarkable submarginally; in posterior portion of valves there are successive series of fine setules (Fig. 17 H–I). Postabdomen elongated, ventral margin concave, preanal margin concave, preanal angle strongly projected, anal margin concave, postanal margin straight, dorso-distal angle widely rounded, distal margin short, postabdominal claw located on a massive projection (Fig. 17 J). Postanal teeth thin, singular, present on postanal and anal margin; lateral setules longer in distal portion. Postabdominal claw with two basal spines, a strong distal basal spine (about 0.3 of claw length) and a short proximal spine (more than two times shorter than distal spine). Antenna I with 9 terminal aesthetascs. Antenna II as in Chydorus sphaericus. Limbs were not studied. Size in our material 0.31–0.37 mm.
Notes. We found only a single adult and a single juvenile female, not sufficient for a full redescription. Smirnov & Sheveleva (2010) mentioned that in anterior view, the body is “triangular, with maximum width dorsally to the middle height”. We found that it is widened dorsally, forming lateral projections as Disparalona ikarus or Monospilus daedalus. Previously C. irinae was known only from a single locality in the Amur basin. Now it is obvious that its range is wider. Unfortunately, it is impossible to associate any previous descriptions and illustrations from the Far East with this taxon due to a “tradition” to study specimens only in lateral view. This taxon seems to be an endemic of the Far East.

A persistent yet dangerous game of solitaire: how the neoliberal university invisibilizes single student-mothers
Creators: name: Portella, Robert James
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2025

description: Unmarried student-mothers are a specific college student population whose enrollment numbers continue to increase on American campuses, yet only approximately 28% of student-mothers graduate within six years (United States Government Accountability Office, 2019). With fierce determination, student-mothers enter universities out of necessity with promises of upward socioeconomic mobility; however, they soon encounter institutional campus barriers influenced by neoliberalism which expect student-mothers to conform to certain traditional college student standards. Extant literature reveals how campus cultures invisibilize student-mothers through flickering or absent services that hinder their degree-completion successes, yet there is a paucity of research dedicated to student-mothers’ experiences within college classrooms. Grounded in a three-pronged theoretical approach, this study examines three areas of inequitable college campus practices: 1) how the neoliberal university’s campus services neglect student-mothers; 2) how matricentric feminism’s call for agency and flexibility illuminates institutional barriers student-mothers face which silence their voices; and 3) how sociocultural learning theory can redirect professors’ classroom policies and practices to provide student-mothers with inclusive epistemic credibility. Six student-mothers who graduated from four New Jersey universities guide this study, which utilizes a Participatory Action Research methodology to actively elevate the participants as co-researchers and generate decolonizing new knowledge (Fine & Torre, 2021; Lennette, 2022). Their narratives foreground their lived experiences to offer recommendations that can inform universities’ future policies and practices at the administrative level, on campus at large, and within the classroom. Keywords: student-mothers, college, university, higher education, neoliberalism, matricentric feminism, communities of practice, invisibilization, sense of belonging, qualitative, participatory action research, non-traditional students

Patriarchy
Violence againt Women
African Feminism
Decolonization and Social Transformation

description: Transformative discourses in academia expose the increase in internal violence and aggression by men against women in African societies. The survival of African women and their children requires many strategies and there is always a limit to human patience, and endurance in the struggle for survival. Survival has been the driving force that compels African women to take drastic decisions to free themselves from violence and psychological trauma caused by colonialism in most parts of the African continent. Through African feminism, silence, and decolonial theories, this study explores African feminist writers’ conceptualization of modern women in their works and their weapons for social discourse on African women and opposing the patriarchal powers that have marginalized them. The knowledge and appreciation of Africans’ cultural heritage has provided African feminist writers with the tools to articulate Indigenous feminist theories. This article aims to show how African feminist writers reconstruct the image of women through the creation of radical female characters who speak out for women’s rights as well as those who are powerful in their silence to affirm that even those who are mute always speak. The article also highlights the significance of Indigenous African feminist theories in promoting innovative research and social transformation.
