Aphyonus rassi Nielsen, 1975: 350 (type locality 12°59’N, 62°59’W).
Paraphyonus rassi: Nielsen 2015: 339.
Material examined. (4 specimens, 85–109 mm SL) NMV A 31819-003, male, 103 mm SL, off Newcastle, NSW, 33°26.10’S, 152°39.90’E, RV Investigator, st.

CSIRO H 8125-02 (GenBank Accession MH491989), female, 109 mm SL, Hunter Commonwealth Marine Reserve, NSW, 32°08.28’S, 153°31.62’E, RV Investigator, st. IN2017_ V03 /078, beam trawl, 3980–4029 m, 4 June 2017. CSIRO H 8132-01, 2 males, 85–101 mm SL (GenBank Accessions MH491992 and MH491993, respectively), east of
Moreton Bay, Qld, 27°00.47’S, 154°13.39’E, RV Investigator, st. IN2017_ V03 /102, beam trawl, 4274– 4264 m, 10 June 2017.
Diagnosis. Paraphyonus rassi differs from the other species of the genus by the black pigmentation laterally in the roof of the mouth distinctly visible externally and only 3–4 developed rakers on the anterior gill arch.
Size. Largest known specimen (109 mm SL) is a ripe female with eggs ca. 1 mm in diameter.
Distribution (Fig. 1). Known from four specimens in the West Atlantic (2610–4400 m), from two in the East Atlantic (4415 m) and now from four specimens off NSW and southern Qld (3980–4280 m).
Remarks. The comparison in Table 1 between the present four specimens and the six earlier known specimens all from the Atlantic Ocean (Nielsen 2015) shows close agreement between the specimens from the two areas. One of the six specimens was originally tentatively identified as P. rassi due to differences in number of rays in dorsal and anal fins, number of vertebrae and length between base of pelvic fins and anal fin. However, the present material levels out the differences in number of fin rays and vertebrae. Consequently, there seems no longer any reason for considering the specimen tentatively identified.

TYPE LOCALITY. — Orbuklukeli section, Mersin Mélange, NW of Mersin city, southern Turkey.
ETYMOLOGY. — Due its sphaerical cortical shell.
OCCURRENCE. — Lower Jurassic, upper Hettangian-lower Sinemurian of Orbuklukeli section, Mersin Mélange, NW of Mersin city, southern Turkey.
DIMENSIONS (based on seven specimens, in µm).- Maximum diameter of test: 100-140 (holotype: 138, average: 123.3); Length of the longest spine: 80-100 (holotype: 100, average: 93).
DESCRIPTION
Shell flat to slightly inflated, spongy consisting of several layers around the micropshaere and four primary spines at right angles situated in one plane or, sometimes, slightly inclined (Fig. 8P). Surface of the shell with numerous pores of different size. Primary spines needle-like, subcircular in transverse section, slightly gradually tapering, and pointed.
REMARKS
This species differs from the Triassic species Tetrapaurinella latispinosa Kozur & Mostler (1994: 77, pl. 16, fig. 9; pl. 17, figs 4, 6) by possessing a much smaller shell by comparison with primary spines and slightly larger pores.

(Fig. 9)
Types. Holotype worker from hills to west of Mudgee, approx. 32°36'S, 149°35'E, New South Wales, 1 September 1963, B.B. Lowery (ANIC, ANIC32-066501); large number of paratype workers, same data as holotype except ANIC32- 061390 (most in ANIC, 2 in MCZC).
Diagnosis. Pronotum and propodeum with elongate spines; the short pronotal spines are directed anteriorly and approximately parallel to the longitudinal axis of the body, in dorsal view a line drawn between their tips intersects the pronotal collar; the first gastral tergite generally lacking hairs but with abundant appressed fine pubescence and occasionally a few very short, scattered hairs present.
Dolichoderus etus can be distinguished from all other Australian Dolichoderus species by its short, anteriorly directed pronotal spines combined with the general lack of erect hairs and the presence of very fine pubescence on the first gastral tergite.
Worker description. See Fig. 9. Other than slight variation in the intensity of leg colour, sometimes even within a single individual, all specimens are similar to the figured individual.
Measurements (n=5). CI 90–99; EI 17–20; EL 0.30–0.35; HL 1.73–1.91; HW 1.65–1.82; ML 2.73–2.93; MTL 1.84–2.11; PronI 66.21–69.32; PronW 1.13–1.21; SI 113–125; SL 1.99–2.15.
Material examined. New South Wales: Asquith (Schrader,H.P.) (ANIC); Calga (Lowery,B.B.) (ANIC); Maroota State Forest (Gush,T.) (ANIC); Ophir nr. Orange (Taylor,R.W.) (ANIC); Pymble (Mercovich,C.) (ANIC); Wentworth Falls, Blue Mts. (Lowery,B.B.) (ANIC).
Comments. Dolichoderus etus is interesting in that while it is known from a fairly restricted region of eastern and coastal New South Wales it is found in forested habitats ranging from dry to wet sclerophyll. It is curious that a species with an apparently broad habitat range should be so geographically restricted. Nests are in soil under rocks.

description: Osteoporotic fractures are often linked to persisting chronic pain and poor healing outcomes. Substance P (SP), α-calcitonin gene-related peptide (α-CGRP) and sympathetic neurotransmitters are involved in bone remodeling after trauma and nociceptive processes, e.g., fracture-induced hyperalgesia. We aimed to link sensory and sympathetic signaling to fracture healing and fracture-induced hyperalgesia under osteoporotic conditions. Externally stabilized femoral fractures were set 28 days after OVX in wild type (WT), α-CGRP- deficient (α-CGRP −/−), SP-deficient (Tac1−/−) and sympathectomized (SYX) mice. Functional MRI (fMRI) was performed two days before and five and 21 days post fracture, followed by µCT and biomechanical tests. Sympathectomy affected structural bone properties in the fracture callus whereas loss of sensory neurotransmitters affected trabecular structures in contralateral, non-fractured bones. Biomechanical properties were mostly similar in all groups. Both nociceptive and resting-state (RS) fMRI revealed significant baseline differences in functional connectivity (FC) between WT and neurotransmitter-deficient mice. The fracture-induced hyperalgesia modulated central nociception and had robust impact on RS FC in all groups. The changes demonstrated in RS FC in fMRI might potentially be used as a bone traumata-induced biomarker regarding fracture healing under pathophysiological musculoskeletal conditions. The findings are of clinical importance and relevance as they advance our understanding of pain during osteoporotic fracture healing and provide a potential imaging biomarker for fracture-related hyperalgesia and its temporal development. Overall, this may help to reduce the development of chronic pain after fracture thereby improving the treatment of osteoporotic fractures.

Chudeau’s Spiny Mouse
Acomys chudeaui
French: Acomys de Chudeau / German: Chudeau-Stachelmaus / Spanish: Ratén espinoso de Chudeau
Taxonomy. Acomys chudeaui Kollman, 1911,
SW Biskra, Atar, Mauritania.
Acomys chudeawi was considered a synonym of A. cahirinus and rehabilitated according to cytogenetic and molecular analyses. T. Benazzou in 1983 found 2n = 40 for A. chudeaui vs. 2n = 36 for A. cahirinus, a distinction later confirmed by cytogenetic studies. Some morphological differences also allowed recognition of A. chudeawi as separate from A. cahirinus and also distinct from A. sewrati and A. airensis, both found in montane regions of southern Sahara. Molecular studies found A. chudeawi to be a member of the A. cahirmus— dimidiatus species complex, and V. Nicolas and colleagues in 2009 synonymized A. airensis and A. chudeaui, the senior taxon. Recorded karyotypes are 2n = 40-46 in Mali, 2n = 40 in Mauritania, and 2n = 41-43 and 46 in Niger. Monotypic.
Distribution. N & W Africa, N of the Niger River.
Descriptive notes. Head—body 93-120 mm, tail 72-125 mm, ear 15-19 mm, hindfoot 15-20 mm; weight 25-64 g. Dorsum of Chudeau’s Spiny Mouseis gray, with red-orange glint; spiny hairs are more abundant on rump; and belly is pure white. Tail is ¢.90% of head-body length and naked. Skin is fragile, and tail skin can be removed easily (autotomy), as inother species of Acomys. Females have four pairs of mammae.
Habitat. Rocky areas. Chudeau’s Spiny Mice have been found as a commensal in cultivated zones, grain storages, and houses.
Food and Feeding. Captive Chudeau’s Spiny Mice eat meat.
Breeding. In Mauritania, female Chudeau’s Spiny Mice reproduce in August-October, and they have 1-3 embryos (average 2).
Activity patterns. Chudeau’s Spiny Mouse is nocturnal, resting and avoiding heat in crevices during the day, but some individuals in the Air regionwere caught during the day.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information.
Status and Conservation. Not assessed on The IUCN Red List. Chudeau’s Spiny Mouse has a wide distribution through Sahelo-Sudanian region whereit receives little human impact, and it is locally abundant in Mauritania and Mali.

Gray Spiny Mouse
Acomys cineraceus
French: Acomys cendré / German: Graue Stachelmaus / Spanish: Raton espinoso gris
Other common names: Heuglin's Spiny Mouse
Taxonomy. Acomys cineraceus Heuglin, 1867,
Doka, Sudan. Restricted by G. M. Al-lenin 1939 to “Eastern Sennaar and about Kalabat.”
Acomys cineraceus is often included in A. cahirinus, but it has been revised and found to be restricted to Sudan, South Sudan, and western Ethiopia. Five previously described species in the same region were synonymized (A. hawashensis, A. hystrella, A. intermedius, A. lowei, and A. whitherbyi), but taxonomy requires further revision. No subspecies are recognized here, but geographical variation between three distinct populations has been described. Northern specimens are slightly distinct from those of the south. Monotypic.
Distribution. Sudan, South Sudan, and W Ethiopia; it may also occur in Djibouti.
Descriptive notes. Head-body 89-116 mm, tail 72-121 mm, ear 13-18 mm, hindfoot 13-19 mm; weight 26-61 g. The Gray Spiny Mouse is medium-sized compared with other species of Acomys. Tail is slightly smaller or equal to head-body length. Dorsal color is variable, typically grayish cinnamon, with spiny hairs present from shoulders to rump. Belly is pure white. Females have three pairs of mammae. Chromosomal complement is 2n = 48-50 and FN = 58-59.
Habitat. Woodland savanna or “djebels” (rocky hills) at elevations below 500 m. Gray Spiny Mice shelter in crevices or under boulders for resting and to avoid heat. They are rupicolous and can be found in houses or fields.
Food and Feeding. The Gray Spiny Mouse probably eats plants, snails, insects,spiders, and scorpions.
Breeding. Gestation probably lasts 30-35 days. Mean litter size is 2:5 young (range 1-5). Eyes of young are open at birth, and sexual maturity is reached ¢.2 months old at weights of ¢.30 g. Reproduction is seasonal in Sudan and occurs probably only once a year,after the wet season, with apeak of pregnant females and young in November— December. In South Sudan, there may be two breeding seasons per year, and most juveniles are seen at the end of the wet season.
Activity patterns. The Gray Spiny Mouse is generally nocturnal, with some crepuscular activity.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Gray Spiny Mouse does not seem to be affected by human activities throughoutits distribution.

description: Likert’s scale is a measurement method to assess individual’s opinions about specific issues.It might be either bipolar reflecting two opposite states of the responses or unipolarreflectinga regular graduation in the degree or status of the issue being measured. A lot ofdescriptive studies in educational and psychological research collect data measured on Likertscales. However, there are arguments among researchers about which methods are appropriatefor a descriptive analysis and interpretation of data from Likert scales. The current paperaimed at discussing the nature of Likert scales and illustrating ways of descriptively analyzingand interpreting data collected using Likert scales. The paper started defining Likert’s scale,presenting types of bias in Likert scales, and differentiating between Likert scale and Likerttype item. Then, three ways were suggested to interpret Likert scale data. These were using ascale of class intervals of the scale composite scores, one-sample t-test, and relativeimportance index. The selection of any of these ways should consider the conceptualframework of the issue being studied, nature of the sample, and reference of interpretation.
