Hydrophis neglectus

description: Hydrophis neglectus Wall, 1906
synonym of Hydrophis stricticollis Günther, 1864
(Table 1; Fig. 9)
Material Examined. ZSI 8598 Holotype from Rangoon (Yangon, Southern Myanmar)
Description. Head small, head shields large, regular; Rostral broader than high; Nasal superior in position, nasal shield in contact with each other; Prefrontal slightly elongated, 2 nd supralabial touching prefrontal; Frontal longer than the distance from the tip of the rostral; Parietal longer than wide; One large anterior temporal; One Supraocular on each side of head; One Pre- and Postocular on each side of head; Seven Supralabial on each side of head; 2 nd touching prefrontal; 3 rd and 4 th touching the eye; Infralabial in fragile condition; Chin shield and Scales around neck and midbody in fragile condition; Ventral and Preanal in fragile condition; Number of bands not discernable; Head width 3.9 mm; Head depth 4.1 mm; Head length 11.8 mm; Snout to Vent length 334.0 mm; Tail length 50.0 mm. Dorsally and ventrally the entire body brown. Number of bands not discernable due to faded colouration.
Remarks. Specimen is in fragile condition, hence some of the measurements could not be taken. Wall (1906) stated its scale counts to be scale rows 48:54:45 and ventrals> 420, whereas Smith (1926) stated it to be a young female, with scale rows 41:55 and ventrals 420. Hydrophis neglectus Wall, 1906 was recognized as valid by Wall (1909), but Smith (1926, 1943) treated it as a synonym of H. stricticollis. Wall (1909) whilst recognizing H. neglectus, remarked that it has characters common with H. caerulescens, H. ocellata and H. fasciatus. Wall also alluded to specimens referred to by Sclater (1891) as H. obscurus, by listing Sclater’s entry as a chresonym of H. neglectus. The nominal taxon H. neglectus was unfortunately missed out from the synonymy of H. stricticollis or of any other species by Uetz et al. (2022). However, many treatises both historical (Smith, 1926, 1943) and recent (Wallach et al. 2014; Ganesh et al. 2019) have correctly listed H. neglectus as a synonym of H. stricticollis.

description: Genus Amalda H. Adams & A. Adams, 1853
Type species
Ancillaria tankervillii Swainson, 1825, by subsequent designation by Cossmann (1899).
Remarks
Amalda tankervillii occurs in Venezuela in shallow water (6 to 70 m) and is conchologically quite different from the other species included in the genus (Fig. 4M). Neither its anatomy nor the molecular data have been examined. Based on shell characters, Voskuil (1991) compared Ancillaria tankervillii with species of Eburna Lamarck, 1801 and concluded that Amalda s. str. should be considered a subgenus of Eburna, while the Indo-Pacific species of Amalda probably belong to a separate genus Baryspira P. Fischer, 1883. Although A. tankervillii is indeed somewhat different from Indo-Pacific species in being thin, broadly oval, with a large inflated last whorl and a very low spire, in the absence of molecular and anatomical data the opinion of Voskuil (1991) remains speculative. Herein, we follow the generally accepted taxonomic concept of Amalda and do not attempt to revise its generic/subgeneric structure, which will require a much broader molecular taxon sampling than is currently available, as well, as sequencing additional genetic markers.

title: The Inflation-adjusted Rate of Return on Corporate Debt and Equity: 1966-1980
Creators: name: Gilson, Stuart
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 1984

description: This report has two main objectives: First, to determine whether the real tax rate on investment income has proven sensitive to inflation; second, to determine the extent to which real returns to debt and equity, based on published data, differ from those based on inflation-adjusted data. The scope of the inflationary distortion in corporate income is assessed, and the resulting estimate is used to calculate the real after-tax rate of return on Canadian corporate debt and equity for the 1966-80 period. The author departs from previous studies of the Canadian corporate sector in his definition of returns to corporate activity. His definition reflects the view that the cost of corporate capital is governed by the after-tax returns accruing to individual investors from their debt and equity claims on the corporate sector. Two empirical regularities are found: 1) the real after-tax rate of return on debt and equity calculated with full inflation accounting is consistently below the rate based on unadjusted data; and, 2) the inflation-adjusted real tax rate on investment income appears to increase with inflation over the sample period.
description: L'étude vise deux objectifs fondamentaux : premièrement, elle cherche à établir si le taux réel d'imposition des revenus de placement a été sensible à l'inflation, et deuxièmement, à déterminer dans quelle mesure les taux de rendement réels des actions et obligations calculés à partir des conventions comptables existantes diffèrent de ceux qui se fondent sur une comptabilité corrigée en fonction de l'inflation. Elle évalue l'ampleur de la distorsion que l'inflation exerce sur le revenu des sociétés et utilise l'estimation obtenue pour calculer le taux de rendement réel, après impôt, des obligations et des actions des sociétés canadiennes entre 1966 et 1980.

L'auteur retient une définition du rendement des sociétés canadiennes qui s'écarte de celle que l'on retrouve dans les études effectuées précédemment sur ces sociétés. En effet, selon la définition de l'auteur, le coût du capital pour les sociétés est lié aux rendements après impôt que produisent les créances sous forme d'obligations et d'actions des sociétés que détiennent les différents bailleurs de fonds.

Deux constantes se dégagent empiriquement de cette étude : 1) le taux de rendement réel après impôt des actions et obligations calculé en tenant compte de l'inflation est toujours inférieur au taux qui est calculé à partir de données non corrigées, et 2) le taux d'imposition réel des revenus de placement, corrigé pour tenir compte de l'inflation, semble évoluer à la hausse, tout comme l'inflation, pendant la période-échantillon.
title: A Comparison of Alternative Monetary Policy Regimes in a Small Dynamic Open-Economy Simulation Model
Creators: name: Longworth, David
name: Poloz, Stephen S.
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 1986

description: In this paper, the simulation properties of a small, dynamic, open-economy IS-LM-Aggregate Supply model are examined under a variety of alternative policy rule assumptions. These assumptions include rigid money stock, exchange rate and nominal income targets, as well as less rigid policy rules that recognize information limitations. The model that is used consists of four dynamic structural equations describing aggregate demand, aggregate supply, money demand and the exchange rate. The parameters are chosen on the basis of existing empirical macro-models. Price expectations are adaptive in the short run but fully consistent in the long run. The implications of transitory and permanent shocks, both domestic and foreign, for the choice of policy regime are analyzed in the context of the model. The paper also highlights the important role played by real exchange rate adjustment in achieving full equilibrium in the presence of permanent shocks. The results bear strong similarities to the cross-policy rankings found in theoretical rational expectations models.

description: Dans cette étude, les auteurs examinent les propriétés que présente un petit modèle dynamique d'économie ouverte, de type IS-LM et comportant une fonction d'offre globale, avec lequel ils effectuent des simulations en utilisant différentes hypothèses de politique : l'hypothèse d'une contrainte sur le stock de monnaie, celles d'une cible de taux de change et d'une cible de revenu nominal ainsi que quelques autres hypothèses moins contraignantes qui reflètent le caractère limité de l'information. Le modèle comporte quatre équations structurelles dynamiques qui formalisent repectivement la demande globale, l'offre globale, la demande de monnaie et le taux de change.

Le choix des paramètres est inspiré des modèles macroéconomiques empiriques existants. Les anticipations de prix sont adaptatives à court terme mais entièrement cohérentes à long terme. Les auteurs analysent dans le contexte du modèle les conséquences des chocs passagers ou permanents, qu'ils soient d'origine intérieure ou extérieure. L'étude fait en outre valoir le rôle important que joue, dans un contexte de chocs permanents, le mécanisme d'ajustement qu'est le taux de change réel dans la réalisation d'un équilibre complet. Les résultats obtenus conduisent les auteurs à établir une hiérarchie des politiques très similaire à celle obtenue avec les modèles théoriques à anticipations rationnelles.

title: Regulation of Financial Institutions—A Functional Analysis
Creators: name: Chant, John
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 1987

description: This study has three main objectives: First, to examine the reasons for the existence of financial institutions that simultaneously lend to one group and borrow from another; second, to analyze the reasons for the special treatment of these institutions in terms of the regulation that governs their activities; and third, to assess the types of regulation that can be explained as a consequence of the reasons for regulation. The analysis suggests that deposit-taking institutions that offer fixed-value liabilities to their customers are best explained either through their advantages in monitoring and enforcement of investments or through the economies inherent in being payments intermediaries. A case for the regulation of financial institutions arises because of the nature of the assets of financial institutions and the transactions costs required to co-ordinate their many creditors. The forms of regulation suggested by the analysis include minimum capital ratios, eligibility requirements for investments, prohibitions on the joint ownership of financial institutions and other enterprises, and limitations on the terms and scale of transactions between associated enterprises.

description: L'étude comporte trois volets. Dans le premier, l'auteur cherche à expliquer pourquoi il existe des institutions qui font à la fois des opérations de prêt et d'emprunt. Dans le second, il étudie les raisons pour lesquelles il faut soumettre les activités des institutions financières à une réglementation spéciale. Dans le troisième, il évalue les types de réglementation qui, à ses yeux, découlent de ce besoin. Il ressort de cette étude que la meilleure explication de l'existence d'institutions de dépôt offrant à leurs clients des placements à valeur fixe est fournie par les avantages dont jouissent ces dernières sur le plan de la surveillance de leurs placements et du recouvrement des sommes qui leur sont dues ou encore par les économies d'échelle inhérentes à leur rôle d'intermédiaire. On peut justifier les réglementations des rapports entre les institutions financières avec leur rôle d'intermédiaire. On peut justifier les réglementations des rapports entre les institutions financières avec leur clientèle – qui diffèrent beaucoup des relations entre d'autres types de créanciers et de débiteurs – par la nature des avoirs de ces institutions et par les coûts de transactions auxquels celles-ci doivent faire face pour assurer la coordination entre leurs nombreux créanciers. Différentes formes de réglementation sont proposées dans l'étude, notamment l'imposition de taux minimums de capitalisation, la soumission des investissements à des conditions d'admissibilité, l'interdiction de posséder conjointement des institutions financières et d'autres entreprises et les restrictions sur les modalités et l'ampleur des transactions entre entreprises associées.

Diagnosis. Antenna 1, peduncular article 3 0.7–1.1 times as long as article 1; accessory flagellum with 2–6 articles. Mouth parts ordinary. Coxae 1–4 long, strongly overlapping, progressively more elongate from 1 to 4, coxae 6, 7 much smaller than anterior coxae. Gnathopods subchelate, palm oblique; gnathopod 1, propodus longer than or subequal to carpus; gnathopod 2 much larger than 1, propodus dilated, longer than carpus. Pereopods prehensile, pereopods 3, 4 not glandular. Urosomites 1–3 free. Uropods 1–3 biramous, inner ramus of uropod 3 longer than or subequal to outer ramus. Telson fleshy, entire.
Included species. Isaea concinna Gurjanova, 1938 [Sea of Japan and Sea of Okhotsk (Kudrjashov, 1972)]; I. concinnoides sp. nov. [Northwest Pacific]; I. elmhirsti Patience, 1909 [Northeast Atlantic]; and I. montagui Milne Edwards, 1830 [Northeast Atlantic and Mediterranean (Lincoln, 1979)].
Remarks. The Isaeidae include only two genera: Isaea and Pagurisaea Moore, 1983. Pagurisaea is distinguishable from Isaea in the glandular pereopods 3 and 4 and the uropod 3 with shortened inner ramus (Moore, 1983).

Myrsidea mcleannani Sychra in Sychra et al. 2006: 52. Type host: Phaenostictus mcleannani (Lawrence, 1860).
This species was the first Myrsidea described from a member of the Thamnophilidae. It was described and illustrated in Sychra et al. (2006), and we need not repeat the details. Use of descriptive features will be limited to the minimum value for each range as given by Sychra et al. (2006) for certain dimensions and tergal setal counts for M. mcleannani as they are sufficient for comparison with our new species.
Female. Tergal setae (minimum value): I, 10; II, 17; III–IV, 20; V–VI, 19; VII, 14. Dimensions (minimum value): TW, 0.51; HL, 0.33; PW, 0.33; MW, 0.50; AWIV, 0.69; ANW, 0.31; TL, 1.70.
Male. Tergal setae (minimum value): I, 10; II, 16; III–IV, 20; V–VI, 18; VII, 16. Dimensions (minimum value): TW, 0.46; HL, 0.31; PW, 0.30; MW, 0.41; AWIV, 0.53; GL, 0.47; TL, 1.44.
Remarks. Both sexes of this species are readily separated from the other two species of this group by the consistently larger dimensions and more setae on the majority of the abdominal tergites.

Material examined
MEXICO • 1 spec.; W coast of Baja California; 28°47ʹ15ʺ N, 115°42ʹ57ʺ W; 1 Aug. 2013; depth 1045 m; core; TALUD XVI cruise, on board R/V El Puma; EMU-13446.
Description (EMU-13446)
Trunk 50 mm in length; rough, light brown body wall; scattered thin, cylindrical papillae. Caudal appendage 10% of trunk length, covered with cylindrical papillae. Introvert incomplete, shorter than trunk.
Longitudinal musculature continuous. Four retractor muscles (RM), dorsal RM attached to body wall anteriorly to ventral pair and more separated from ventral nerve cord. Esophagus attached to ventral RM. Two sack-shaped nephridia; nephridiopores open anteriorly anus; without spindle muscle; rectum with six thin lateral muscles; ventral nerve cord ends before internal anterior margin of caudal appendage.
Habitat
Bathyal (1045 m); muddy sand bottom.
Distribution
Western coast of Baja California.
Remarks
Despite the damage to the single specimen examined, it was placed in the subgenus Golfingia (Golfingia) because the dorsal retractor muscles are displaced. Within the subgenus only two species have a caudal appendage. One is G. (G.) anderssoni (Théel, 1911), described from Antarctica; it has large, bladder-shaped papillae that cover an area of 65–90% of the posterior trunk length (Cutler 1994), while the specimen examined here from Baja California has inconspicuous conical papillae. The other species is G. (G.) muricaudata, which also has inconspicuous conical papillae. Unfortunately, since the specimen is damaged, the identity of this species cannot be confirmed; more specimens are needed to clarify its status.
The nominal species, Golfingia (Golfingia) muricaudata (Southern, 1913), was described from Ireland from depths of 475–1088 m (Southern 1913); it has also been recorded from Japan (Murina 1964) and the North Pacific (Maiorova & Adrianov 2015, 2018).

description: In this study the authors compare the information content of alternative monetary aggregates with respect to total spending in the economy, using data for Canada. The analysis considers 46 monetary measures, about half of which constitute conventional summation aggregates, while the remainder are superlative indices of monetary services based on the Fisher Ideal formula. The methodology follows a natural sequence in which the information set used to predict total spending is gradually expanded, beginning with lagged total spending itself, followed by the monetary aggregates, then other financial variables such as interest rates, exchange rates, and stock prices. Finally, the information loss due to monetary aggregation is tested by decomposing a broad and informative aggregate into its components, within a multivariate indicator model. All of the competing models are tested against one another, using the encompassing principle of Hendry and Richard (1982), and then evaluated by means of standard stability tests, one-period-ahead in-sample forecasting, and post-sample simulation.
description: Dans cette étude, les auteurs comparent l'information que différents agrégats monétaires contiennent sur l'évolution de la dépense globale. Leur analyse fondée sur des données pour le Canada vise quarante-six mesures de la masse monétaire, dont environ la moitié sont des agrégats conventionnels obtenus par addition, et l'autre moitié des agrégats « superlatifs » établis selon la formule Fisher Ideal. La méthode retenue suit un ordre naturel, en ce sens que le nombre de variables servant à prévoir l'évolution de la dépense globale est augmenté graduellement : on fait d'abord intervenir les valeurs retardées de la dépense globale elle-même, suivies d'un agrégat monétaire, puis d'autres variables financières telles que le taux d'intérêt, le taux de change et le cours boursier. Enfin, les auteurs cherchent à savoir si l'agrégation de mesures de la masse monétaire entraîne une perte d'informations; pour cela, ils décomposent un grand agrégat riche en informations et utilisent ses éléments comme indicateurs dans un modèle de prévision à plusieurs variables. Les divers modèles testés sont comparés entre eux selon le principe « englobant » de Hendry et Richard (1982); ils sont ensuite évalués sur la base de tests standard de stabilité, de prévisions récursives effectuées pour une période à l'avance et de simulations ex post.
title: An Analysis of the Information Content of Alternative Credit Aggregates
Creators: name: Milton, Leslie

description: This study evaluates the information content of 25 measures of credit with respect to three macroeconomic variables—nominal spending, real spending and prices. Initially, simple descriptive techniques are used to assess the contemporaneous and leading relationships between the credit aggregates and the three goal variables. Next, bivariate vector autoregression models are constructed by regressing each of the goal variables on its own past values, then adding contemporaneous and lagged values of the credit aggregates. Multivariate models are developed by introducing other financial variables (which include an interest rate, an exchange rate and a stock market price index) into the simple bivariate equations as explanatory variables. The models using different measures of credit are compared with one another and with models using various monetary aggregates. It is found that, while individual monetary aggregates are more informative than measures of credit, the latter may have a valuable complementary role to play as macroeconomic indicators.
description: Dans cette étude, on procède à l'analyse du contenu informatif de vingt-cinq mesures de crédit dans le but de cerner les relations qui existent entre celles-ci et trois variables macroéconomiques – la dépense nominale, la dépense réelle et les prix. On a d'abord évalué, à l'aide de techniques descriptives simples, la simultanéité de ces relations ou l'antériorité du crédit par rapport aux trois variables. Puis on a construit des modèles autorégressifs vectoriels à deux variables et opéré la régression de chacune des variables cibles par rapport à leurs valeurs passées et aux valeurs instantanées et retardées de mesures du crédit. On a ensuite procédé à l'élaboration de modèles à plusieurs variables en introduisant dans les équations simples à deux variables d'autres variables financières – tels le taux d'intérêt, le taux de change et un indice des cours boursiers – à titre de variables explicatives. On a effectué une analyse comparative des modèles où interviennent différentes mesures du crédit et ceux-ci sont ensuite confrontés avec les modèles intégrant divers agrégats monétaires. Il est démontré que, même si ces agrégats ont un contenu informatif plus large que les mesures de crédit, ces dernières peuvent jouer un rôle complémentaire important comme indicateurs macroéconomiques.
title: Regional Disparities in Wage and Unemployment Rates in Canada: A Review of Some Issues
Creators: name: Day, Kathleen
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 1989

description: In this report the author considers three issues relating to regional disparities in Canada. First, the size of regional disparities in unemployment and wage rates is examined together with the patterns in these disparities over time. Next, various theories related to the causes of regional disparities are reviewed, focussing on their predictions regarding regional disparities in unemployment and wage rates. Finally, the author considers the consequences that regional disparities may have at the aggregate level as the result of aggregation bias. The implications of disparities in unemployment rates for aggregate wage inflation are examined, using the Phillips curve framework.
description: Cette étude traite de trois aspects différents des disparités régionales au Canada. L'auteur examine d'abord l'ampleur des disparités de taux de chômage et de salaires entre régions, ainsi que leur évolution dans le temps. Diverses théories visant à expliquer les disparités régionales, en général, et celles ayant trait aux taux de chômage et aux salaires, en particulier, sont ensuite passées en revue. Enfin, l'auteur étudie les conséquences que les disparités régionales peuvent entraîner sur les salaires agrégés à cause des distorsions liées à l'agrégation. Les répercussions des disparités du taux de chômage sur la hausse globale des salaires sont analysées à l'aide du schéma logique de la courbe de Phillips.

title: International Interest Rate Linkages and Monetary Policy: A Canadian Perspective
Creators: name: Murray, John

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 1989

description: This paper examines the implications of increased international capital mobility and asset substitutability for domestic monetary policy in a small open economy such as Canada. Alternative definitions of international financial market integration are presented and tested in the context of two popular macro models. In the main, results suggest that interest rate relationships in Canada have not changed significantly in recent years and that the implementation and effectiveness of monetary policy have not been affected by the increased financial market integration that has taken place in overseas economies.
description: Dans cette étude, les auteurs examinent les incidences que peuvent avoir sur la politique monétaire d'une petite économie ouverte comme le Canada une plus grande mobilité des capitaux et une plus grande substituabilité des actifs à l'échelle internationale. Ils présentent et testent, en tirant parti de deux modèles macroéconomiques bien connus, diverses définitions du concept de l'intégration internationale des marchés financiers. En gros, les résultats donnent à penser que les relations entre les taux d'intérêt au Canada n'ont guère changé ces dernières années et que l'intégration accrue des marchés financiers des économies d'outre-mer n'a influencé ni la mise en oeuvre ni l'efficacité de la politique monétaire.

title: Measuring the Profitability and Effectiveness of Foreign Exchange Market Intervention: Some Canadian Evidence
Creators: name: Murray, John

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 1990

description: When the major industrial countries decided to move to a system of managed flexible exchange rates following the collapse of the Bretton Woods system, many observers thought that this would reduce, if not eliminate, the need for official foreign exchange market intervention. During the past fifteen years, however, intervention in most countries, including Canada, has risen steadily in both frequency and intensity.

This paper presents new empirical evidence on the profitability and effectiveness of Canadian intervention from 1975 to 1988. The results suggest that the government's foreign exchange operations have been very profitable and have tended to be stabilizing, in the sense that authorities were typically pushing the exchange rate towards its long-run trend and helping to reduce short-run volatility in the market.
description: Lorsque, après l'effondrement du système de Bretton Woods, les grands pays industriels ont décidé d'adopter un régime de changes flexibles contrôlés, de nombreux observateurs croyaient que cela réduirait ou même éliminerait la nécessité des interventions officielles sur les marchés des changes. Or, depuis quinze ans, la fréquence et le volume des interventions augmentent régulièrement dans la plupart des pays, y compris le Canada.

L'étude présente de nouveaux résultats empiriques concernant la rentabilité et l'efficacité des interventions de l'État canadien entre 1975 et 1988. D'après ces résultats, les opérations sur devises de l'État canadien ont été très rentables et ont eu tendance à stabiliser le marché des changes, en ce sens que les autorités, orientant généralement le taux de change vers sa tendance à long terme, contribuaient à réduire sa volatilité à court terme sur le marché.
