description: Das METI erfasst die Vertrauenswürdigkeitseinschätzungen gegenüber Personen, die ihr Wissen öffentlich verfügbar machen. Es eignet sich insbesondere zur Messung von Vertrauenswürdigkeitsurteilen, die wissenschaftliche Laien ExpertInnen zuschreiben. Es handelt sich um 14 Items in Form antonymer Adjektivpaare, die auf drei Dimensionen verteilt sind (Expertise, Integrität, Wohlwollen). Die Adjektive der Skala wurden anhand theoretischer Überlegungen zu epistemischer Vertrauenswürdigkeit neu entwickelt bzw. aus bestehenden Skalen entnommen, die Vertrauenswürdigkeit oder Glaubwürdigkeit messen. Reliabilität: Die interne Konsistenz liegt bei Cronbachs Alpha = .75-.85. Validität: Die Dreifaktorenstruktur wurde durch explorative und konfirmatorische Faktorenanalysen nachgewiesen. Validität und Sensitivität des METI wurden in einer Studie nachgewiesen, in der die Beschreibung fiktiver Autoren eines Wissenschaftsblogs in sechs Bedingungen (hohe vs. niedrige Expertise, Integrität oder Wohlwollen) variiert wurde: Es zeigte sich, dass auf der jeweils in den Beschreibungen adressierten Dimension des METI die Ratings der TeilnehmerInnen wie vorhergesagt am höchsten bzw. am niedrigsten ausfielen.
description: The METI measures the trustworthiness assessments towards persons who make their knowledge publicly available. It is particularly suitable for measuring trustworthiness judgements that scientific laypersons ascribe to experts. It consists of 14 items in the form of anonymous pairs of adjectives distributed over three dimensions (expertise, integrity, goodwill). The adjectives of the scale were newly developed on the basis of theoretical considerations on epistemic trustworthiness or were taken from existing scales that measure trustworthiness or credibility. Reliability: The internal consistency is at Cronbach's Alpha = .75-.85. Validity: The three-factor structure was proven by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. Validity and sensitivity of METI were demonstrated in a study in which the description of fictitious authors of a science blog was varied in six conditions (high vs. low expertise, integrity or goodwill): It was shown that on the respective dimension of the METI addressed in the descriptions, the ratings of the participants were, as predicted, highest and lowest respectively.

description: Alterosa graciosa, new species
Fig. 7 A–D
Alterosa graciosa sp. nov. cannot be easily placed in any of the species groups defined by Blahnik (2005). Together with A. inappendiculata sp. nov., it is unusual among other species of the genus by the lack of intermediate appendages. The new species can be easily diagnosed by the presence of a paired basoventral spine-like projection on tergum X. The club-like preanal appendages, the mesally paired bristle-like setae of tergum X, and the paired long, dark spines on phallobase wall are also useful diagnostic characters.
Adult. Color (in alcohol) brown; legs, palps, and antennae pale brown, wing pattern not discernible. Male forewings each 5.8–6.4 mm (n=4); female 6.4 mm (n=1).
Male genitalia. Tergum VIII with posteromesal margin scarcely or not emarginate. Sternum IX with anterolateral margin forming a rounded projection in dorsal half; posteroventral margin produced, extending in a broad arc or almost linearly from dorsum (Fig. 6 A). Tergum IX greatly reduced, membranous or fused to base of tergum X (Fig. 6 B). Tergum X tapered from base, wider basally, apical half with subparallel margins, converging apically; tergum with basoventral paired spine-like projection, apex turned inward, almost touching each other; at mid length with erect, paired bristle-like setae; apex sensillate, rounded as viewed dorsally, rounded and greatly enlarged in lateral view (Fig. 7 A, 7B). Intermediate appendages apparently absent (Fig. 7 A, 7B). Preanal appendages elongate, club-like, covered with stiff, small setae and short, spine-like setae on apical third, rounded at apex (Fig. 7 A, 7B). Inferior appendages elongate, linear, flattened on mesal surface; 1st article, in lateral view, approximately 2 times as long as wide; 2nd article shorter than 1st article, base narrower than apex of 1st article, slightly enlarged apically; apex rounded, with prominent pad of short, stiff apicomesal setae (Fig. 7 A, 7C). Phallobase tubular, short, linear, with paired long, dark spines on external surface of phallobase wall; endotheca with paired short spines; phallotremal sclerites indistinct (Fig. 7 D).
Holotype male: BRAZIL: Paraná: Morretes, Serra da Graciosa, Rio Grota Funda, 25°20’26.1”S, 48°53’41.2”W, el. 657 m, 24.i.2011, LL Dumas & APM Santos leg. (DZRJ 3485).
Paratypes: BRAZIL: Paraná: Same data as holotype, 3 males, 1 female (DZRJ 3486).
Distribution: Brazil (Paraná state).
Etymology: The epithet of the specific name, graciosa, refers to Serra da Graciosa, a beautiful mountainous region of Atlantic Forest where the type specimens were collected.

Alterosa inappendiculata sp. nov. is distinctive within the genus and cannot be placed in any existing species group as defined by Blahnik (2005). The new species is easily diagnosed by the apparent absence of intermediate and preanal appendages. Additionally, the long row of stout rod-like setae at midlength of tergum X is also a useful diagnostic character for this species.
Adult. Color (in alcohol) dark brown; legs, palps, and antennae pale brown, wing pattern not discernible. Male forewings each 5.4 mm (n=1).
Male genitalia. Tergum VIII with posteromesal margin scarcely or not emarginate. Sternum IX with anterolateral margin broadly rounded, especially in dorsal half; posteroventral margin moderately produced, extending in broad arc or nearly linearly from dorsal (Fig. 8 A) or ventral views. Tergum IX greatly reduced, membranous or fused to base of tergum X (Fig. 8 B). Tergum X subrectangular as viewed laterally, in dorsal view slightly constricted in basal half, with rounded protrusion bearing rod-like setae at midlength, tapered and subtriangular in apical half; apex sensillate, large, rounded as viewed dorsally, truncate in lateral view (Figs. 8 A, 8B). Intermediate and preanal appendages apparent absence (Figs. 8 A, 8B). Inferior appendages elongate, setose; 1st article, in lateral view, approximately 2 times as long as wide, slightly bulging mesally, laterally, and ventrally in middle; 2nd article subequal in length to 1st article, relatively wide, base nearly as wide as apex of 1st article; apex rounded, with small pad of short, stiff apicomesal setae (Figs. 8 A, 8C). Phallobase tubular, short, weakly curved at midlength; endotheca without evident spines or phallotremal sclerites (Fig. 8 D).
Holotype male: BRAZIL: Paraná: Guaraqueçaba, Reserva Natural de Salto Morato, small tributary of Rio Morato, 25°09’53.9”S, 48°17’54.3”W, el. 55 m, 25.i.2011, JL Nessimian & RB Braga leg. (DZRJ 3487).
Distribution: Brazil (Paraná state).
Etymology: The epithet of the specific name, inappendiculata, is from the Latin word appendicis (appendages) and the prefix in- (not, without), referring to the apparent absence of intermediate and preanal appendages.

Schiecke leg.; 11 specimens, same locality and date as previous, U. Schiecke leg. All material deposited at MVR.
Distribution
Red Sea (present study); Western Indian Ocean: Madagascar, Mauritius (Ledoyer 1978).
Remarks
Differences between this species and L. predenticulata Ledoyer, 1978 are difficult to determine (see Ledoyer 1978: 300 and this paper), but the posterodistal lobes of the bases of pereopods 5–7 are always clearly lengthened and widened in regular progression, and the inferior half of the posterior margin of pereopod 7 is evenly rounded (vs abrupt corner in the middle in L. predenticulata). Young specimens have a gnathopod 2 propodus palm nearly smooth; the serrations become more visible with age, but remain regular (vs irregular in L. predenticulata). Mature specimens of this species can reach 5–6 mm, while most of the collected material is 3.5–4.5 mm, similar to L. predenticulata.
Ecology
This species has been collected among sponges (present study) and among coral (Ledoyer 1978).

Schiecke leg.; 3 specimens, same locality and date as previous, stn 204, reef and epiphytes, U. Schiecke leg.
Remarks
Differences between this species and L. acutilobata Ledoyer, 1978 are not readily apparent (see Ledoyer 1978: 300 and this paper), but the posterodistal lobes of the bases of pereopods 5–7 are also scarcely lengthened in young specimens, the posterior margin of pereopod 7 is always with the inferior half straight or somewhat concave, ending with a clear-cut corner at about the middle of the posterior margin and the widest point of the basis (vs regularly rounded in L. acutilobata). In young specimens gnathopod 2 propodus palm is irregularly serrate, and incisions become deeper and wider with age (vs smooth in young specimens and regularly shallowly serrate in adult). This species has been collected among coral (Ledoyer 1978).

Type locality
Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea.
Material examined
ISRAEL: 1 ♂, 4 mm, stn 39, Eilat, U. Schiecke leg., April–May 1969.
Remarks
There are no sexual differences to the female described in the original paper, except that pereopods 6 and 7 have obviously confounded labels in fig. 8 of Lyons & Myers (1991). The only addition which seems worth mentioning is the rather small head with large round eyes (illustrated but not stressed verbally) and a quite remarkable bulge anteriorly.
Kossman’s (1880) description of L. crassimana from the Red Sea is poor; the drawings of the gnathopods, however, would match this species except for the length of 7 mm (vs 3.6–4 mm here). Ledoyer (1979: 106–108, fig. 66 and 1986: 672–73) named his material, found in Madagascar, L. richiardii Lessona, 1865 but it matches perfectly with the material herein studied, while L. richiardii has Genova (Mediterranean) as the type locality with a length of 6–8 mm. In both mentioned publications he also illustrates the anterior bulge of the head and the deep insertion of antenna 1.
This species remains the only Leucothoe with a posterodistal tooth on epimeron 3 to have been identified in the Red Sea.
Distribution
Red Sea (present study), Gulf of Aqaba (Lyons & Myers 1991); Western Indian Ocean: Madagascar (Ledoyer 1979, 1986).

Material examined
ISRAEL: 2 juvs, 1.6 mm, Eilat, stn 105, Apr.–May 1969, U. Schiecke leg. (slide MVRCr 7732).
SUDAN: 1 specimen, Port Sudan, stn 160, Dec. 1970, U. Schiecke leg.; 2 specimens, 2 mm, Port Sudan, stn 168, Dec. 1970, U. Schiecke leg. (slide MVRCr 7733).
Remarks
The name chosen by Ledoyer indicates that the first gnathopods of this species are beset with many very small spines making them look “scaly” on the margins between the very thin propodus and carpus. The dactylus of the first gnathopod is very short; that of the second gnathopod is longer than ¾ of the propodus hind margin.
Distribution
Red Sea (present study); South Pacific Ocean: New Caledonia, Noumea (Ledoyer 1984); Madagascar, Tulear (Ledoyer 1986).
