description: Sorolopha chiangmaiensis Kawabe, 1989
(Figs. 10, 18, 27)
Sorolopha chiangmaiensis Kawabe, 1989, Microlepid. Thailand 2: 30. TL: Thailand.
Diagnosis: This species differs from all other congeners by the characteristic pecten of the hindwing (Kawabe 1989). It is similar to S. bryana (Felder & Rogenhofer, 1874) in the male genitalia, but it can be distinguished by the longer and slenderer socius and the trapezoidal shape of the ventral prominence of cucullus, with a prominent inwardly curved angle bearing a long tuft of seta.
Specimens examined: 53, 2Ƥ, Bavi, Hanoi province, 19.VII–5.VII. 2010 (Y.S. Bae & X.V. Le). Host plants: Unknown.
Distribution: Vietnam, Thailand.
Remarks: Razowski (2009) reported that specimens from Sapa, Fansipan Mts, differ externally from specimens from Thailand in having a more uniform grayish green forewing with less distinct markings.

description: Within the parasitic nematode Ancylostoma ceylanicum, a ~20 million-year-old Bel/Pao LTR retrotransposon encodes an ancient viral class II envelope fusion protein termed Atlas Gc. Typically, retroviruses and related degenerate retrotransposons encode a hemagglutinin-like class I envelope fusion protein. A subset of Bel/Pao LTR retrotransposons within the phylum Nematoda have acquired a phlebovirus-like envelope gene and utilized the encoded fusion machinery to escape the genome as intact exogenous retroviruses. This includes C. elegans retroelement 7 virus which was recently reclassified as a member of the genus Semotivirus. A 3.76 Å cryoEM reconstruction confirms Atlas Gc as a closely related phleboviral homologue and class II fusion protein in a novel case of gene exaptation. Preliminary biophysical and biochemical characterization indicate Atlas Gc functions under specific physiological conditions targeting late-endosomal membranes, much like modern viral class II envelope fusion proteins. Phylogenetic analyses support the reclassification of the Atlas endogenous retrovirus and five other A. ceylanicum ERVs as novel semotiviruses of Belpaoviridae of the new viral order of reverse-transcribing viruses Ortervirales.

description: As the performance of weather and climate forecasting systems and their benchmark systems are generally not homogeneous in time and space and may vary in specific situations, improvements in certain situations or subsets have different effects on overall skill. We present a decomposition of skill scores for the conditional verification of such systems. The aim is to evaluate the performance of a system individually for predefined subsets with respect to the overall performance. The overall skill score is decomposed into a weighted sum representing subset contributions , where each individual contribution is the product of the following: (1) the subset skill score , assessing the performance of a forecast system compared to a reference system for a particular subset; (2) the frequency weighting , accounting for varying subset size; and (3) the reference weighting , relating the performance of the reference system in the individual subsets to the performance of the full data set. The decomposition and its interpretation are exemplified using synthetic data. Subsequently, we use it for a practical example from the field of decadal climate prediction: an evaluation of the Atlantic European near-surface temperature forecast from the German “Mittelfristige Klimaprognosen” (MiKlip) initiative decadal prediction system that is conditional on different Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) phases during initialization. With respect to the chosen western European North Atlantic sector, the decadal prediction system “preop-dcpp-HR” performs better than the uninitialized simulations mostly due to contributions during the positive AMO phase driven by the subset skill score. Compared to the low-resolution system (preop-LR), no overall performance benefits are made in this region, but positive contributions are achieved for initialization in neutral AMO phases. Additionally, the decomposition reveals a strong imbalance among the subsets (defined by AMO phases) in terms of reference weighting, allowing for insightful interpretation and conclusions. This skill score decomposition framework for conditional verification is a valuable tool to analyze the effect of physical processes on forecast performance and, consequently, supports model development and the improvement of operational forecasts.

description: The effect of discontinuity on temporospati al integration in the accuracy of distance estimations was examined utilizing a slide presentation of a route. Participants were 60 young and 60 elderly adults who were randomly assigned to one of two conditions. The two conditions were determined by whether the subjects viewed the walk in a logically sequenced order or a pre-determined randomized order. Subjects viewed the walk twice and thereafter made a series of distance estimates between a series of preselected landmarks chosen by a different group of young and elderly adults. Additionally, subjects gave self-ratings on a twelve-item questionnaire to allow for an examination of the relationship between self-ratings and actual performance on the task of distance estimations. An analysis of the distance estimates revealed a significant main effect of both age and order and a significant interaction of age x order. A step-wise multiple-regression analysis on the twelve-item questionnaire indicated that question 5, asking subjects to rate themselves on mechanical skills, was a valid predictor of actual performance in the task of distance estimations. Overall results showed that elderly adults performed comparably to young adults when the route was logically sequenced but performed significantly poorer when the presentation of the route was randomized.

Castnia rubrophalaris Houlbert, 1917
Taxonomic history. Typical specimens of his species can be easily distinguished from typical Synpalamides phalaris based mainly in color differences. It was originally described by Houlbert (1917) from Brazil, Bahia as Castnia rubrophalaris. It was later placed in the genus Sympalamides [sic] (Houlbert 1918). Rothschild (1919) mentions the species [as Castnia (Sympalamides [sic]) mygdon form rubrophalaris Houlbert) collected in November, 1903, from Sapucay, Paraguay.
Distribution. The species is distributed in Southern Brazil, but reaches Paraguay, however there is a report of at least one specimen supposedly collected in Venezuela (Joicey & Talbot, 1925; Lamas 1995; Miller 1986, 1995)
Biology and behavior. It has been collected in Atlantic Forest in the areas of occurrence in Paraguay, where it is possible to find specimens perching on leaves of bushes or small size plants (Fig. 21). Ulf Drechsel (pers. comm.) mentions that Synpalamides rubrophalaris is relatively common in the Atlantic Forest of the Alto Paraná Department. The hosts are Unknown.

Manchu language learning and sociolinguistic identity in 19th century China

This paper will introduce a project which has evolved out of a recent cooperation agreement between researchers at the University of Leiden and at SOAS, University of London, which has borne concrete and scientifically satisfying results. Libraries across eastern Asia and Europe contain significant amounts of written materials in the script of the Qing China’s (1644–1911) dynastic and second official language: Manchu. However, due to a shortage of scholars who have mastered Manchu, but also because of lacking expertise in our academic libraries, most Manchu collections have remained invisible. Towards the end of the Qing era, most Manchus had assimilated into a Chinese cultural and linguistic setting, which however did not mean that they had forgotten their roots and distinct socio-linguistic identity. Determined to foster a sense of collective destiny, the Qing court encouraged the members of the military garrison families (gūsa !"#$ /qi 旗 /banners) to study Manchu by means of taught classes and printed teaching aids (primers). This project aims to compile and make digitally available a corpus which will eventually contain all known versions of Manchu primers and grammars, teaching materials copied or reprinted in other works, as well as hand-written sources such as school book manuscripts and correspondence. This will also include source materials produced by Westerners, e.g. Herbert A. Giles, Paul G. von Möllendorff and Ivan I. Zakharov. Our working hypothesis is that these language aids were intended to link the late imperial Manchu youth to their historical roots, and thus to foster a sense of ethnic belonging. The Manchu primers can hence be seen as veritable “nation- builders”, at a time when Manchu as a colloquially spoken language had already become endangered. We now want to take this project one substantial step further by inviting institutions across Europe and East Asia (China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea) to participate, with the aim of locating, analysing and digitally preserving all original source materials in Manchu, printed or hand-written, as well as applied art objects such as seals or scrolls. The Manchu documents will be made available to the scholarly public by means of a single database, interconnecting textual fragments in our individual libraries so that the viewer is presented with a complete digital text – not unlike the International Dunhuang Project. We can already count on the support of a genuinely global network of Manchu experts, as well as an enthusiastic community of young Manchu learners in China and the West. We look forward to introducing the full scope and concrete examples of our project to the Language Documentation and Archiving conference in Berlin later this year.

1990 Uteria merienda (Elliott) – Radoičić, pl. 10, fig. 5.
Remarks: As the sections illustrated by Elliott (1968) from the Paleocene Sinjar Formation of Iraq were assigned to the genus Clypeina Michelin, they were interpreted as belonging to fertile laterals. “Reminiscent of Clypeina ”, they were referred to the sterile laterals of the genus Uteria Michelin showing two types of laterals, sterile and fertile (Radoičić, 1990; Dieni et al., 1985, p. 26). This type of thallus structure is well discernible in the longitudinal section illustrated in Figure 11a, a specimen from Eastern Iran (Sistan Suture Zone). There may be one or two fertile whorls between the disc-like whorls of sterile laterals. The specimens from the Chehel Kaman Formation refer exclusively to fragments of sterile laterals. A comparative table of the different Uteria species, excluding U. merienda, has been provided by Deloffre et al. (1989, tab. 1). In fact, the new species described by Deloffre et al. (1989) as Uteria mexicana from the upper Paleocene can in our opinion not be differentiated distinctly from the Iraqi species and might be a possible junior synonym of the latter.

description: This research explores the integration of blockchain technology in healthcare, focusing on enhancing the security and efficiency of Electronic Health Record (EHR) management. We propose a novel Ethereum-based system that empowers patients with secure control over their medical data. Our approach addresses key challenges in healthcare blockchain implementation, including scalability, privacy, and regulatory compliance. The system incorporates digital signatures, Role-Based Access Control, and a multi-layered architecture to ensure secure, controlled access. We developed a decentralized application (dApp) with user-friendly interfaces for patients, doctors, and administrators, demonstrating the practical application of our solution. A survey among healthcare professionals and IT experts revealed strong interest in blockchain adoption, while also highlighting concerns about integration costs. The study explores future enhancements, including integration with IoT devices and AI-driven analytics, contributing to the evolution of secure, efficient, and interoperable healthcare systems that leverage cutting-edge technologies for improved patient care.

Fig. 5a
Remarks: The available tangential section does not allow the recognition of the lateral morphology and number of orders. We can just mention similarities to sections of Trinocladus perplexus Elliott (Elliott, 1955; Deloffre and Fourcade, 1994) and Thyrsoporella longa Radoičić, both described from Paleocene strata of Iraq. Granier and Braik (2002) already put up for discussion the possibility that some of the forms described as Trinocladus perplexus are identical to the thyrsoporellids reported by Radoičić (1990). If verified, it would then result in the new combination Thyrsoporella perplexa (Elliott) due to priority reason. On the other side, the existence of three orders of laterals (> Trinocladus) has been demonstrated by Deloffre and Fourcade (1994, transverse section in pl. 1, fig. 16) in material from Mexico excluding the belonging to Thyrsoporella (> 3 orders).

(Fig. 7)
Taxonomic history. The species was originally described from Brazil by Hopffer (1856). Preiss (1899) mentions the species (erroneously as Castnia inturna in the text, but correctly in the included plate) from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Burmeister (1879) confirms the presence of the species in Paraguay, but says that it is smaller than the Argentinian specimens and that the black marginal band of the hindwings is interrupted by two rows of white rededged spots which are parallel to the margin. This “Paraguayan form” was later named paraguayensis by Strand (1913). After carefully studying the available literature and information on this and similar species, as well as discussions with experts on the group, we now consider that paraguayensis should be regarded as a new synonym of Castnia invaria penelope, and not of Castnia juturna. Krüger (1928) described the variety vesta from Cerro Pelado in the Guairá Department, Paraguay. Jörgensen (1930) mentions that he never saw a specimen from Paraguay but he observed them in at least one site in Argentina. He also thought that he confused form vesta with paraguayensis (“… esta forma [vesta] que he tomado por paraguayensis …”) around Cerro Pelado, Guairá Department, in the Cordillera of Villarrica (Jörgensen 1930).
Distribution. Known from Northern Argentina, South East Brazil and Eastern Paraguay (Miller 1986).
Biology and behavior. Specimens were seen flying around Dyckia floribunda Griseb. (Bromeliaceae) in the Colonia Bompland region of Misiones, Argentina, and around Dyckia distachya fa. induta Hassl. (mentioned as Dyckia microcalyx) in the Villarrica region of Paraguay (Jörgensen 1930).

REMARKS
A Pantropical species, for a long time it was known as F. angustifolius Sull., but Bruggeman-Nannenga (2016) has shown Fissidens biformis to be an older name. The species is known in Asia from China, India, Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea (Daniels & Kariyappa 2013). In Asia the distribution of the species is insufficiently known, as some reports of F. angustifolius in the literature have been shown to belong to F. zollingeri (Bruggeman-Nannenga 2016).

Remarks: Jodotella veslensis represents the type-species of the genus described from the Thanetian of the Paris Basin, Central France based on a single isolated specimen by Morellet and Morellet (1913). Further isolated material from the Paris Basin has been presented by Génot (1980) and Génot and Granier (2011). Compilations of different Jodotella species with their biometrical data have been provided by Parente (1997, tab. 2) and Dieni et al. (1985, tab. 2). With respect to the biometric data from the Paris Basin (Génot, 1980) and Sardinia (Dieni et al., 1985), the Iranian specimens display smaller outer dimensions (D), and a reduced vertical spacing (h), while other parameters fall in the ranges reported from the species (e.g., d/D, p, ds). The occurrence in the Chehel Kaman Formation is the first record of the species from Iran and also in the Central Neotethysian area.

Castnia laura H. Druce, 1896
Taxonomic history. The ssp. was originally described (as Castnia laura) by Herbert Druce (1896). Miller (1995) considered it a synonym of Leucocastnia licu s (Drury) and Lamas (1995) placed it as a ssp. of Telchin licus (Drury). Benítez (2002) mentions Castnia sora (= Synpalamides phalaris) and Castnia licus in his list of forest and agricultural pests of Paraguay based on specimens deposited at the FCA/ DE. The first author visited this collection in 2009 and only saw specimens of Synpalamides phalaris (Fabricius), Castnia invaria penelope Schaufuss and Gazera heliconioides micha (H. Druce) deposited there. These facts allow us to conclude that the “ Castnia licus ” mention in Benitez (2002) is just a misspelling of “ Castnia linus ” (= G. heliconioides).
Distribution. The type described by Druce is from Chapada dos Guimarães (Mato Grosso, Brazil) (Druce 1896). In a broader sense, Telchin licus (Drury) is found primarily in the Amazon Basin, with subspecies ranging from Honduras to Bolivia (Lamas 1995; González 2003).
One specimen collected in 1984, and deposited at the MNHNPY (see below), appears to be the first valid Paraguayan record of the species. It was collected in a region with a mixture of Atlantic Forest and Cerrado vegetation.
Biology and behavior. Benítez (2002) reports that this species is a pest of pineapples [Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.; Bromeliaceae] and Bananas (Musa spp.; Musaceae), however we could not autenticate these data in Paraguay since it was part of a host plant literature related to Telchin licus (Drury).
