description: Esperiopsis macrosigma var. novaezealandiae Dendy, 1924
(Fig. 7C)
Esperiopsis macrosigma var. novaezealandiae Dendy, 1924: 341, pl. XIII figs. 14–20; Bergquist & Fromont 1988: 27, pl. 6F. Esperiopsis macrosigma f. novaezealandiae; Lévi & Lévi 1983: 959, fig. 21.
The variety was described by Dendy from Three Kings Islands, New Zealand, 34.1667°S 172.0833°E, depth 183 m (holotype BMNH 1923.10.1.110). It was also reported as forma by Lévi & Lévi (1983: 959, fig. 21) from New Caledonia. It was erected as a Pacific member of the North Atlantic species E. macrosigma Stephens (1916: 235; 1921: 9, pl. II fig. 4, from the W coast of Ireland, 50.6167– 50.7°N 11.3– 11.5333°W, depth 457–991 m, syntype in the National Museum of Ireland, Natural History, with type slide BMNH 1953.11.11.81). The existence of a species with such a disjunct distribution (Ireland vs New Zealand and New Caledonia) is unlikely to be valid, and there are also spicule size differences, notably the isochelae of the Irish variety have a third category much larger (125 µm) than those of the Pacific specimens (60–80 µm). I propose to elevate the Pacific variety to the rank of distinct species as Esperiopsis novaezealandiae Dendy, 1924.

Rethinking the relationship of states and financial markets after the 2008 global credit crisis
Creators: name: Amemasor, James
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2011

description: This dissertation contends that an alternate conceptual framework—the "marketplace framework"—explains more clearly the nature of International Political Economy (IPE) as a field of study and as a set of global conditions and activities. It critiques the failure of the dominant IPE framework—what I call the "tension framework"—to effectively explain the process of evolution that led to the 2008 global credit crisis and the political reactions to the crisis itself. It argues that in order to understand those processes and reactions, we need to re-frame and re-analyze relationship of politics and finance in market framework terms. The marketplace framework focuses on relations of advanced liberal capitalist states and their financial markets (as the most elemental units of their respective realms), instead of the broader state-market relations. It argues that understanding these particular relations is critical to the total conception of IPE because advanced liberal capitalist states and their financial market institutions constitute the axis of the global political economy. The research draws upon the international capitalist experience in general and the development of financial capitalism in particular and investigates: 1.) why the advanced capitalist economy—finance and trade—is designated as a "self-regulating" realm detached from the state; 2.) why the financial realm is "divorced" from the physical economy. It concludes that finance is a complex legal mystery and it is separated from politics and the physical economy in order to give the advanced liberal capitalist system its distinctive governing principle. The principle is that regardless of the self-regulating 'designation,' advanced capitalist system of governance unnecessarily isolates finance from the state because the former, in Weberian thought, is the means specific to the latter. The dissertation is interdisciplinary and analytic in method as it is qualitatively historical and interpretive in approach. By analytic, I mean examining the relationship of "states" and "markets" at their most fundamental units. By interdisciplinary, I mean exactly what Robert Gilpin refers to as eclectic mixture of theoretical viewpoints and analytic methods. In brief, the dissertation seeks to provide an alternate framework for re-conceptualizing the multiple stories underway in contemporary IPE.

Type area. Peru.
Examined material. HT ♂ (CTs at ZIRA).
Note. This species is only known from the HT ♂. It is the only Blennidus species with two close setigerous punctures on the margin of anterior half of pronotum; the actual consistency of this character should be verified on more abundant material, as the presence of additional setae is possible on aberrant specimens. In fact, the CSt collection contains an unidentified specimen, likely referable to Blennidus languens (Tschitschérine, 1898), with two close setae on the right anterior margin of pronotum. As far as other features are concerned, B. euphaenops is rather similar to B. vereshaginae (Straneo, 1993).

Halichondria flabellifera Bowerbank, 1882: 107, pl. VII figs. 4–10 (in: Bowerbank & Norman 1882); Stephens 1912: 32.
This species was described by Bowerbank from Westport Bay, Ireland, approximate coordinates 53.81°N 9.9°W, depth 9 m (holotype BMNH 1910.1.195). Stephens (1912) examined type slides labeled with this name and found they contained a mix of two species, Myxilla rosacea and an unidentified species of Mycale. Despite this, the name remains available (ICZN art. 17.1). Since most of the spicules belong to Myxilla rosacea, I propose to reassign the compound specimen to Myxilla (Myxilla) rosacea (Lieberķhn, 1869).

Blennidus fitzcarraldi Giachino & Allegro, 2011: 23
Type locality. Peru, Dip. Ancash, San Luis, laguna Huachucocha, m 4200.
Examined material. HT ♂ (CAl); 47 PTT (35 ♂ and 12 ♀) (complete TS) (CAl, CCa, CGi, CMo, CVi, BMNH, MNHNP, MRSN, MSNM, UASM).
Note. This species is easily distinguished from the others from Cordillera Blanca (B. huascarani and B. unistria) by the markedly angulate hind angles of pronotum. Because of the similarities in external morphology and in male genitalia, its closest relative is probably B. unistria.
Distribution. Restricted to the Dept. Ancash, within Cordillera Blanca.
Habitat. All the recorded specimens (legit G. Allegro) are from high altitude (4,200–4,450 m a.s.l.) Andean grasslands.

Examined material. HT ♂ (CAl), 22 PTT ♂ and 13 PTT ♀ (CAl, CCa, CGi, CSc, MNHNP, MRSN, MSNM, UASM).
Note. Species with peculiar morphology, distinguished by its depressed habitus, slender legs and very distinctive morphology of aedeagus; it seems rather isolated from all other Blennidus species from Peru.
Distribution. Only recorded from two sites of Cordillera Blanca: Punta Olímpica Pass and Laguna Wachucocha (=Huachucocha), near San Luis (Allegro 2010).
Habitat. In the type locality (4,600 m a.s.l.) this species is commonly found in the coarse detritic sediments of a glacial area (Allegro 2010).

description: This report details the State of New Jersey's 1997-98 environmental management plan, and highlights the State's adoption of "next generation" approach to environmental protection.  Key elements of this new philosophy are long term direction setting, and development and reporting of specific, scientifically sound measures of progress.  This new approach is the result of the State's active participation in the National Environmental Performance Partnership System (NEPPS), which emphasizes management through the use of goals and indicators as measures of environmental progress. New Jersey's specific goals are focused on three areas: air quality, freshwater watersheds, and drinking water.

description: Mittels der objektzentrierten Provenienzforschung rekonstruiert der Beitrag die Geschichte des Gemäldes „Die Seeschlacht von Lepanto“, das 1945 aus dem Besitz der Familie Sarre verschwunden ist. Das Ergebnis ist eine transparente Aufarbeitung der Objektgeschichte, der sich der Kunsthandel bei der Versteigerung des Werks im Jahr 2016 entzogen hat. Unbeschadet der verbliebenen Lücken in der recherchierten Provenienzkette zeigt der Beitrag, dass es sich bei dem durch Sotheby’s versteigerten Gemälde zweifellos um das aus dem Familienbesitz der Sarres entwendete Werk handelt, und liefert in diesem Fall ein Gegengewicht zum opak agierenden Kunsthandel. Die erarbeitete Verlagerungsgeschichte zeigt zudem exemplarisch auf, unter welchen Umständen wertvolles Kulturgut aus der DDR in die Bundesrepublik verbracht wurde und welche Netzwerke daran beteiligt waren. Im Rahmen des Dissertationsprojektes zur Beschaffung von Kulturgut in der DDR für den Export ins westliche Ausland sind diese Frage und die sich andeutenden Rollen der beteiligten Akteure weiter zu eruieren.

description: The dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) is reliably engaged in working memory (WM) and comprises different cytoarchitectonic layers, yet their functional role in human WM is unclear. Here, participants completed a delayed-match-to-sample task while undergoing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at ultra-high resolution. We examine layer-specific activity to manipulations in WM load and motor response. Superficial layers exhibit a preferential response to WM load during the delay and retrieval periods of a WM task, indicating a lamina-specific activation of the frontoparietal network. Multivariate patterns encoding WM load in the superficial layer dynamically change across the three periods of the task. Last, superficial and deep layers are non-differentially involved in the motor response, challenging earlier findings of a preferential deep layer activation. Taken together, our results provide new insights into the functional laminar circuitry of the dlPFC during WM and support a dynamic account of dlPFC coding.

(Fig. 7E)
Hymedesmia (Ectyodesmia) mutabilis var. costata Topsent, 1928: 260, pl. VIII figs. 20, 22–23.
The variety was described by Topsent for three specimens from two stations of Prince Albert 1 er taken near the Azores, Stat. 3150 and 3293, the first from 38.0167N 25.35°W at 1740 m depth, indicated by Topsent as the type (not identified, but presumably in MOM with a slide in MNHN). Topsent listed spicular differences with the typical variety Hymedesmia (H.) mutabilis (Topsent, 1904: 166 as Hymeraphia, collected from the Azores, Prince Albert 1 er cruises Stat. 597, 702 and 899, with that of Stat. 702 chosen as the type, 39.3556°N 31.098°W, depth 1326 m, type registration number not identified, but it is presumably in MOM with a slide in MNHN). The specimen from Stat. 899 was reassigned to the present variety by Topsent (1928: 261). The spicular differences with the typical variety were notably the ornamented shaft of the arcuate isochelae (smooth in the typical variety) and the stylote or mucronated shape of the tornotes (smooth tylotes in the typical variety). Since the specimens were collected from the same general area in the deeper North Atlantic near the Azores, I propose to elevate the present variety to a distinct species Hymedesmia (Hymedesmia) costata Topsent, 1928.

Type area. Peru.
Examined material. LT ♂ and 1 PLT ♂ (CTs at ZIRA); 1 PLT ♂ (CSt); 9 ♂ (CMa, CSt).
Note. This species is easily distinguished by the scarcely dilated ♂ fore-tarsi, thus deserving an isolated position and a specific ‘species group’, and by its large size (11-13 mm). Straneo & Vereshagina (1991) considered Feronia perplexa Tschitschérine, 1898 as a synonym of B. inca.
Distribution. Although the type specimens are generically labelled ‘Peru’, the non typical specimens in CSt and CMa are all recorded from the area of Cerro de Pasco (Dept. Pasco). An exchange of labels and aedeagi among specimens in CSt probably occurred, as two of them (legit Mateu and legit Bordon) bear on separate cards an aedeagus referable to B. nigritulus (Straneo, 1993), and the HT of B. bordoni (= B. meticulosus) bears on a separate card an aedeagus likely belonging to B. inca (Giachino & Allegro 2011).
Habitat. The specimen collected by Bordon is labelled ‘ 4,300 m a.s.l.’, which likely corresponds to an Andean grassland.

Iophon frigidus var. gracilis hentschel, 1929

description: Iophon frigidus var. gracilis Hentschel, 1929
Iophon frigidus var. gracilis Hentschel, 1929: 884 (no illustration).
The variety described by Hentschel from North Spitsbergen, 1 mile N of Ross Island, 80.8°N 20.3833°E, depth 85 m (holotype in ZMH), and the White Sea, 66.6°N 41.3833°E, depth 54 m (collected by the ‘Deutschen Expedition in das N̂rdliche Eismeer im Jahre 1898’) was erected primarily on the basis of a single character: the possession of bipocillae, which were lacking in the typical variety described by Lundbeck (1905: 183) from the East Greenland shelf, 72.4167°N 19.55°W, depth 256 m, syntypes ZMUC DEM 18 and 26), and by Levinsen (1887: 360 as Esperella picea) from the Kara Sea, and by Hentschel (1916: 10) from Spitsbergen. Further differences were more subtle: slightly smaller megascleres and anisochelae with a narrow upper half distinct from the broader shape in the typical variety.
Burton (1932: 348) discussed the global diversity of species of Iophon and in a footnote he synonymized I. frigidus, (ignoring I.f. var. gracilis), and I. dubius Hansen, 1885 with I. piceum (Vosmaer, 1885) citing observations of the variability in spiculation in species from the southern oceans [I.radiatum Topsent, 1901 and I. proximum (Ridley, 1881)] as evidence for this conclusion.
Koltun (1959: 151) largely followed Burton’s example but proposed a more differentiated widespread Arctic species Iophon piceum five ‘subspecies’. Of these, he confirmed that Iophon frigidus and the variety I. f. var. gracilis were synonymous with I. piceum dubium (Hansen, 1885) rather than with the typical subspecies. Remarkably, he proposed a subspecies Iophon piceum abipocillum, for a specimen which lacked bipocillae similar to I. frigidum. Koltun’s proposed diversity of largely sympatric ‘subspecies’ is not consistent with current hypotheses about subspecies.
I am not convinced that Iophon piceum is the senior synonym of I. frigidum, as no comparative studies have been published. Burton’s and Koltun’s opinions are not sufficiently underbuilt.
If I. frigidum is a distinct species, I.f. var. gracile cannot be synonymized and prudence dictates a possibly temporary elevation in rank to species level, since the difference (possession of bipocillae) precludes synonymy. Accordingly, I propose to name the present variety Iophon gracile Hentschel, 1929.

(Fig. 7G)
Iophon pluricornis var. trullifera Hentschel, 1914: 84, pl. VI fig. 9.
The variety was described by Hentschel from Gauss Station and its neighbourhood Antarctica, 66.0333°S 89.6333°E, depth 170–400 m (syntype ZMB 4809). It is entirely based on an alleged difference in shape of the bipocillae with that of the typical variety described by Topsent (1907: 74 from the shore of Booth-Wandel Island, Antarctic Peninsula, 65.08°S 63.99°W, type not identified, but presumably in MNHN). The latter has bipocillae with “belles dimensions” of 11 µm. Topsent’s drawing of the bipocillae is very small and of rather indistinct shape, but Hentschel (1914) still thought they were distinctly different from the bipocillae of the present variety, described and illustrated as having the “geŵnliche Gestalt”. Apart from Burton (1929: 442), who synonymized all Antarctic Iophon species to a single species I. radiatum, there are no other authors who commented on the present variety. In view of the poor evidence provided by Hentschel to justify the erection of his var. trullifera (the name remains unexplained (but trulla (L.) means ‘serving spoon’ or ladle, referring obviously to the shape of the bipocillae), I propose to merge the variety with the typical variety as Iophon pluricorne Topsent, 1907.

Type locality. Peru, Dept. Junin, km 20 route Jauja-Tarma, 4000 m.
Examined material. HT ♂ (CMa at MRSN); 10 PTT ♂ and 1 PT ♀ (CMa, CSt); 1 ♂ specimen of this species is wrongly included in the TS of Blennidus angularis Straneo, 1985 (= B. rectangulus syn. nov.) (CMa).
Note. Species easily distinguished by the distinctive morphology of aedeagus, which is exceptionally long and slender.
Distribution. All the known specimens have been collected by Mateu in Dept. Junin (central Peru).
Habitat. The altitude data reported on the labels (4,000 m a.s.l.) suggest a preference of this species for the Andean grassland.

Iophon proximus var. reticularis Hentschel, 1914: 89 (no illustration).
The variety consisting of two fragments was described by Hentschel from Observatory Bay, Kerguelen Islands, approximate coordinates 49.2°S 69.7°E, depth not given (syntype ZMB 4805) (not from Gauss Station as Desqueyroux-Faúndez & Van Soest 1997: 10 erroneously stated). It was erected because it resembled in most details of shape and skeleton Iophon proximum (Ridley, 1881: 119 as Alebion, described from Sandy Point, Chile, 53.16°S 70.87°W, depth 13–19 m, holotype BMNH 1879.12.27.5), but lacked bipocillae. It is a dubious difference because several species of Iophon of different shapes and skeletal characters have been observed to lack the bipocillae. Similar to the above discussed Iophon frigidum Lundbeck, 1905, it is not easily determined if the lack of bipocillae is evidence of specific distinctness. Prudence dictates that the two varieties are to be given the benefit of the doubt and should be distinguished at the species level until molecular evidence is available. Accordingly, I propose to elevate the present variety to the species Iophon reticulare Hentschel, 1914.

description: The theme of this proposal is to improve the perceptual quality of video transmissions, as well as increase the capacity of video transmission systems. We propose to use combinations of techniques drawn from the disciplines of compression, signal processing, and communications, and networks. One approach is based around determining appropriate perceptually-based metrics to allow dropping of video packets and/or frames at various points along the transmission path, and concealing the loss of information at the destination by perceptually-based interpolation methods. The applications will include both 2D video and 3D stereo video. Over the past several years, we have conducted human observer experiments to ascertain the visibility of packet drops for a range of encoder types, encoding parameters, video content, and video resolutions. These experiments have allowed us to develop models which accurately predict the visibility of packet drops. In a related strand of work, we have conducted research on automatic determination of those small portions of an image where a viewer tends to focus his or her attention. These types of information allow the allocation of more bits to important regions of the image, and allow one to drop packets for which the drop is less likely to be noticed (either because the region is not important, or because the drop can be well concealed). The judicious dropping of packets and/or frames based upon prioritization of their visual importance can reduce the bit rate. At the decoder side, we propose smart concealment of the dropped packets or frames. Also, we address end-to-end video delivery, from video sources like Internet content servers to mobile devices. We propose a wireless system consisting of multiple wireless networks, where each wireless access point and base station is supplemented by appropriate memory and signal processing capability. The local memory will contain many of the videos in demand, and the processing elements can perform coding, packet dropping, frame-rate conversion, and joint channel-source coding. We propose a video scheduler which enhances the end-to-end capacity by determining the optimal selection of resources. Besides developing simulation programs to verify the performance of the proposed techniques, we will also develop a demonstration testbed, consisting of multiple access points and WiMax stations/gateway, with an Intel/Cisco server. Our testbed will serve to demonstrate that using our proposed algorithms, we will be able to significantly increase the number of video users while satisfying an acceptable quality of service for each user.

description: Isodictya delicata var. megachela Burton, 1934
Isodictya delicata var. megachela Burton, 1934b: 20.
The variety was described by Burton from Seymour Island, Grahamland, Antarctica, 64.3333°S 56.6333°W, depth 150 m (holotype presumably in the Stockholm Museum, with additional type material BMNH 1933.3.17.7, and three slides). The variety was erected on the basis of differences with the typical variety described by Thiele (1905: 435 as Desmacidon delicata, from Admirality Sound, Chile, 54.31°S 69.5°W, depth 10 m, holotype ZMB 3289) in shape (flabellate vs. finger-shaped in the typical variety) and spicule sizes (chelae 70 µm vs. 20 µm in the typical variety). According to Ríos (2006) and Ríos et al. (2020), there are also sigmas in the var. megachela, not reported in the typical variety. Since both varieties are of sympatric occurrence in nearby Antarctic localities, infraspecific status is not warranted in this case. Koltun (1964: 41) suggested the varieties were subspecies, but the argument of sympatry applies a fortiori for species level. The differences appear sufficiently large. I propose to elevate the variety to a distinct species Isodictya megachela Burton, 1934b.
