description: Lorentz invariance violation in photons can be quantified by measuring the difference in arrival times between high- and low-energy photons originating from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). When analyzing data, it is crucial to consider the inherent time delay in the emission of these photons at the source of the GRB. In a recent study, three distinct models were evaluated to explain the intrinsic emission times of high-energy photons by analyzing 14 multi-GeV photon events detected from 8 GRBs using the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (FGST). In this study, we examine three remarkable GRB photons recorded by different observatories: the 99.3~GeV photon from GRB 221009A observed by FGST, the 1.07~TeV photon from GRB 190114C detected by the Major Atmospheric Gamma Imaging Cherenkov (MAGIC) telescope, and the 12.2~TeV photon from GRB 221009A observed by the Large High Altitude Air-shower Observatory (LHAASO). Our analysis indicates that the newly proposed model with a linear relationship between photon energy and intrinsic emission time can offer a consistent framework to explain the behavior of all three exceptional photons with a Lorentz violation scale $E_{\rm LV}\sim 3\times 10^{17}$~GeV.

description: Local responses to irregular migrants vary widely. Some cities have formal policies regarding irregular migrants and a specific budget allocation for related services. Others make adjustments that are less formal in approach or less coordinated within the agency. Still other cities have yet to develop an approach to the irregular migrant population. Based on data from the City Initiative on Migrants with Irregular Status in Europe (C-MISE) and primary and secondary data collected by MIrreM partners from Canada, Italy, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Poland, this working paper aims to provide an analysis Local level responses to address irregular migrants, including innovative practices where they have emerged and ongoing challenges in policy implementation. 

The way cities respond to irregular migrants has evolved significantly. They reveal a complex pattern of privileges and constraints at the international, national and local levels, as well as the tensions that  can arise in multilevel governance when interests diverge at the local, state and federal levels. National legal frameworks provide irregular migrants with minimal or no access to most legal services. At the local level, this can lead to social problems such as homelessness and poverty, whichcommunities have to deal with. Between and within countries, laws governing access to services for different categories of irregular migrants may vary.Cities across Europe and North America have led the way with some promising practices toward irregular migrants, ranging from stopping irregularity to helping them access essential services such as access to health, accommodation, education, and legal advice. Several examples of city initiatives are discussed in this paper. However, despite the availability of promising practices by different cities in dealing with irregular migrants, a number of persisting challenges remain which include: growinganti-immigration discourse; growing national legal restrictions to essential services; limited data on irregular migrant populations at both national and local levels; limited funding and capacity of local authorities.The paper reflects on some implications for policy and practice that emerged from and which include effective firewalling and joined-up approach across departments and between organisations; maintain or continue some of the good practice adopted during Covid-19; and resolve administrative bottlenecks where they heighten the risk of migrants falling into irregularity.

description: This policy brief provides a concise summary of information that can help policymakers and other stakeholders grasp the main issues around local-level estimates of irregular migrant populations and make decisions about which factors to prioritise while making these estimates.  

Drawing on examples from municipalities across Europe and Canada, we highlight the scarcity of official local-level estimates, how the divergences in terminology feed into the uncertainty around estimates, the challenges in collecting local-level data as well as showcasing promising practices. Whilst local-level estimates are rare, they can be a way towards overcoming some of the limitations of national estimates including data sources that may not be available nationally, such as the numbers of irregular migrants accessing specific local services and can help inform the development of local-level policy and practice. However just as with national estimates, local-level estimates may pose ethical issues in how they are used and for which purpose.

description: We introduce a design technique, Clear Panels, to design interactive mobile device applications. Using mixed- fidelity prototyping, a combination of low- and high-tech materials, participants refine multiple aspects of a mobile application’s design. Clear Panels supports writing and sketching via a transparent overlay affixed atop a mobile device screen. It enables design partners to refine their gesture-based interactions on actual devices. The technique has been successfully implemented in the design of children’s mobile applications. The technique leverages and extends longstanding interaction design methods to include mobile and hand-held technologies. Importantly, we show it is effective in raising participants’ awareness of key mobile application design issues without constraining their creativity.

description: Family Camaenidae
Asian Camaenidae Pilsbry, 1895 were taxonomically separated from the family Bradybaenidae Pilsbry, 1939 on the basis of the absence of dart apparatus and mucus glands in the reproductive system (Páll-Gergely et al., 2013). Schileyko & Kuznetsov (1998) argued that the camaenid-like genitalia of Landouria, are the result of secondary reduction, and placed Landouria in the Bradybaenidae. However, the results from a study of the molecular phylogeny of the helicoid land snails indicated that AsianAustralasian camaenid and bradybaenid taxa intermingle in the same clade of the phylogenetic tree, which suggests that both taxa are confamilial (Wade et al., 2007). This opinion was followed by Gittenberger et al. (2012) and Páll-Gergely et al. (2013), who considered Bradybaenidae Pilsbry, 1939 as a junior synonym of Camaenidae Pilsbry 1895. We also agree with this opinion.

title: Popularmusik im Religionsunterricht
Creators: name: Buhr, Andrea

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit setzt sich mit der Verwendung von Popularmusik im Religionsunterricht auseinander. Dabei liegt der Schwerpunkt auf der didaktischen Reflexion, die vor jeder methodischen Konkretisierung stattfinden sollte. Im ersten Teil wird eine Verhältnisbestimmung von Popularmusik und Religionspädagogik vorgenommen, im zweiten Teil findet eine beispielhafte Anwendung der herausgearbeiteten didaktischen Grundlinien anhand zweier Lieder aus der Popularmusik statt. Einleitend gilt es, den Begriff „Popularmusik“ inhaltlich zu bestimmen. Dabei geht es vor allem um eine Abgrenzung zu dem Begriff „populäre Musik“, unter dem beliebte Stücke aus verschiedensten Genres zusammengefasst werden. Popularmusik lässt sich enger fassen durch bestimmte Kennzeichen wie die intendierte kommerzielle Verbreitung. Der Einsatz von Popularmusik im Religionsunterricht ist deswegen legitim und sinnvoll, da es mehrere Berührungspunkte von Musik und Religion gibt: Musik weist transzendentale Dimensionen auf, da sie über das Alltägliche hinausweist. Speziell die Popularmusik stellt einen wichtigen Faktor für die Identitätsbildung junger Menschen dar. In Liedern der Popularmusik kommen oft ihre Wünsche, Sehnsüchte und Fragen zum Ausdruck und regen so zu einer Auseinandersetzung an. Dadurch können Lieder auch eine biographische Qualität erhalten. In einer Zeit der Enttraditionalisierung kann Popularmusik durch die implizite oder explizite Thematisierung lebensweltlich relevanter Fragen religiöse Funktion erhalten. Das wird durch die oft verwendeten (religiösen) Symbole und Rituale deutlich. Für den Einsatz im Religionsunterricht ergeben sich aus diesem Befund folgende Konsequenzen: Die Alltagserfahrungen und die Lebensgeschichte der Jugendlichen dienen als Ausgangspunkt eines Suchprozesses, bei dem das Ergebnis nicht von vorne herein feststeht. Im Zentrum stehen die SchülerInnen als Subjekte des Unterrichts, und nicht vorgegebene Glaubenswahrheiten. Die Religiosität der Jugendlichen ist in jedem Fall ernst zu nehmen, auch wenn sie von traditionellen kirchlichen Pfaden abweicht. Um eine kognitive Engführung zu vermeiden, indem beispielsweise nur der Liedtext behandelt wird, sollen auch emotionale und körperliche Dimensionen von Musik in den Blick genommen werden. Bei all dem ist wichtig, dass Musik nicht für pädagogische Zwecke funktionalisiert wird. Aus diesen didaktischen Überlegungen ergibt sich, dass die Liedauswahl sorgfältig und sinnvoll getroffen werden muss. Der zweite Teil konkretisiert diese Überlegungen anhand der Songs „Mother Earth“ von Culcha Candela und „Firework“ von Katy Perry. Neben Informationen über die InterpretInnen und das Lied finden sich hier musikalisch-stilistische und thematische Anknüpfungspunkte für den Religionsunterricht. Im Resümee dieser Arbeit werden die wichtigsten Ergebnisse zusammengefasst und sollen als Anregung und Motivation für den Einsatz von Popularmusik im Religionsunterricht dienen.

description: Understanding the origin of substructures in protoplanetary disks and their connection to planet formation is currently one of the main challenges in astrophysics. While some disks appear smooth, most exhibit diverse substructures such as gaps, rings, or inner cavities, with varying brightness and depth. As part of the Ophiuchus Disk Survey Employing ALMA (ODISEA), we previously proposed an evolutionary sequence to unify this diversity, driven by the formation of giant planets through core accretion and subsequent planet-disk interactions. By combining the disk evolution and planet formation code PLANETALP with the radiative transfer code RADMC-3D, we have now reproduced the key aspects of the proposed evolutionary sequence. Starting with a smooth disk (like e.g., WLY 2-63), we modeled the evolution of a fiducial disk with a 1 Jupiter-mass planet at 57 au. Within a few hundreds of orbits, a narrow gap forms, resembling ISO-Oph 17. By $\sim$0.1 Myr, the gap widens, and dust accumulates at the cavity edge, producing a structure similar to Elias 2-24. At $\sim$0.4 Myr, the disk evolves further into a morphology akin to DoAr 44, characterized by a smaller inner disk and a brighter inner rim. By $\sim$1 Myr, the system transitions to a single narrow ring, resembling RXJ1633.9-2442. This line of work strongly supports the planetary origin of substructures and enables the possibility of identifying a population of planets that is currently beyond the reach of more direct detection techniques.

Landouria

description: Genus Landouria Godwin-Austen, 1918
According to Schileyko & Kuznetsov (1998), this genus is distributed in north-eastern India, Nepal, Myanmar (Mandalay and Shan), and China (Yunnan). Only the Nepalese localities have been verified by reproductive anatomy. Thus, the specific and generic identities of shells from other areas remain questionable.
Diagnosis. The anatomical characters of some Nepalese species of Landouria were investigated by Schileyko & Kuznetsov (1998), comprising Landouria savadiensis (Nevill, 1877), L. aborensis Godwin-Austen, 1918, L. dhaulagirica Schileyko & Kuznetsov, 1998 and L. rhododendronis Schileyko & Kuznetsov, 1998. However, the anatomy of the type species is unknown. The important characters of the genus as suggested by Páll-Gergely et al. (2013) are: depressed shell, last whorl descending in front, and umbilicus open and broad; flagellum possessing a series of distinct tubercles on its surface and internally with an axial canal from which the secondary smaller canals branch off, and ending in superficial tubercles; penis consisting of proximal and distal portions, verge minute. The vagina is long and possesses longitudinal folds on the inner wall. The gametolytic sac is very thin except for the swollen base, and a small globose sac at the distal end; dart apparatus and mucus glands absent.
Remarks. In the original description of the genus Landouria, Godwin-Austen, 1918 included five species from Sri Lanka and the Himalayas (northern and north-eastern India). Schileyko & Kuznetsov (1998) added four species from Nepal to the genus. Other species were described and reported from Indonesia and the Philippines, and have often been mentioned as Landouria (Rensch, 1931; Zilch, 1966; Marwoto, 2016). However, the systematic positions of these island taxa remain uncertain. By compiling distribution records, Schileyko & Kuznetsov (1998) concluded that the genus is restricted to northern India, Nepal, northern Burma, and Sri Lanka. According to Godwin-Austen (1918), the Sri Lankan L. radleyi showed a short and oval flagellum with an elongated distal end with no sign of tubercles, which are characteristic of other Landouria species. Therefore, L. radleyi probably needs to be reclassified in another possibly undescribed genus.

title: Die Indioarbeit der Jesuiten im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert - Modell einer "Inkulturation"?
Creators: name: Fasching, Christian
Year: 2011

description: Die Guaraní-Missionen waren seit ihrer Entstehung im Jahre 1609 bis zu ihrem Ende 1767 unterschiedlicher Sichtweisen ausgesetzt. In diesem über 150 Jahre andauernden Missionsprojekt gelang es den jesuitischen Missionaren in der Provinz Paraguay, durch Wandermissionen dortige Indios zu bekehren und in Missionssiedlungen zusammenzuführen. Die Arbeit der europäischen Missionare wird vom Anfang bis zu ihrem abrupten Ende untersucht. Der Hauptteil der Betrachtungen bildet die Beschreibung und Beurteilung der Guaraní-Missionen. Um einen möglichst genauen Einblick in dieses Themenfeld unter dem Inkulturationsaspekt zu bekommen, ist eine Begriffsklärung der häufig verwendeten Bezeichnungen in diesem Zusammenhang der erste Schritt einer Annäherung. Anschließend werden geschichtliche Einblicke in die damalige Zeit gegeben. Der Einfluss der Reconquista und der daraus entstandene Conquistageist steht dem neuen missionarischen Ideal des Ordens der Societas Jesu gegenüber. Erst mit der Verwirklichung einer nachhaltigen Bekehrung war es möglich, dass die jesuitischen Missionare den Erfolg erreichten, welcher anderen Orden nicht beschieden war. Der Wunsch nach Entsendung zu missionarischer Tätigkeit wurde ergänzt durch das Bestreben, die indigene Bevölkerung in Paraguay mit erzieherischen Mitteln zum Menschsein nach europäischem Vorbild hinzuführen. Die Entstehung dieser Missionssiedlungen erfolgte nach dem Ruf des spanischen Gouverneurs Hernandias, der die Jesuiten für die Seelsorge der spanischen Bevölkerung und die Bekehrung der Indios anforderte. Schnell erkannten die jesuitischen Missionare, dass eine Existenzsicherung der Grundstein für die Entwicklungsarbeit mit den Indios war. Erst nach Sicherung dieser Grundbedürfnisse, wie Nahrung und Wohnen konnten sich schnell Gewerbe und Handwerk in den Guaraní-Missionen etablieren. Dieser Erfolg förderte das soziale Gefüge in den Missionssiedlungen. Die Basis dieses Systems bildeten die jeweiligen jesuitischen Missionare, welche durch Menschenkenntnis und Autorität die Entwicklung der Guaraníes in den Missionssiedlungen begünstigten.

description: This paper provides a framework for discussing the participation of irregular migrants in the informal economy. Conceptual ambiguities surrounding both informality and irregularity have undermined academic and public discussions of this topic. We review alternative approaches to informality and pin down working definitions for the informal (formal) economy, unregistered (registered) firms, and the category of irregular (regular) migrant workers. Furthermore, we present a discussion of pathways into economic informality at the micro- and macro-levels for employers and workers alike. In particular, we elaborate on the additional and unique incentives and constraints that both regular and irregular migrants face in the labor market. We end with a survey of methodological approaches to measuring the size of the informal economy, with the goal of informing the construction of novel methodologies that generate standalone estimates of the participation of irregular migrants in the informal economy.

description: Motivated by the large-scale nature of modern aerospace engineering simulations, this paper presents a detailed description of distributed Operator Inference (dOpInf), a recently developed parallel algorithm designed to efficiently construct physics-based reduced-order models (ROMs) for problems with large state dimensions. One such example is the simulation of rotating detonation rocket engines, where snapshot data generated by high-fidelity large-eddy simulations have many millions of degrees of freedom. dOpInf enables, via distributed computing, the efficient processing of datasets with state dimensions that are too large to process on a single computer, and the learning of structured physics-based ROMs that approximate the dynamical systems underlying those datasets. All elements of dOpInf are scalable, leading to a fully parallelized reduced modeling approach that can scale to the thousands of processors available on leadership high-performance computing platforms. The resulting ROMs are computationally cheap, making them ideal for key engineering tasks such as design space exploration, risk assessment, and uncertainty quantification. To illustrate the practical application of dOpInf, we provide a step-by-step tutorial using a 2D Navier-Stokes flow over a step scenario as a case study. This tutorial guides users through the implementation process, making dOpInf accessible for integration into complex aerospace engineering simulations.

description: Se presenta un ejercicio de sistematización docente relacionado con un co-laboratorio llamado Prácticas narrativas: Tú si escribes muy bonito ocurrido dentro de las Prácticas Profesionales de Inmersión Territorial de la especialidad Nacional Soberanías y Agroecologías Locales (PIES AGILES-2021-2023). Donde 30 estudiantes de 17 estados de la república mexicana redactaron y participaron virtualmente narrando eventos letrados que marcaron sus procesos de lectoescritura, trayendo recuerdos para reflexionar, sanar y mirar con compasión. Este ejercicio fue un intento por escuchar a los estudiantes atestiguando su otredad, preguntando para transformar, documentando para devolverles, promoviendo vínculos significativos, reaprendiendo lenguajes y palabras que son y nos significan como la reciprocidad y la ciclicidad. Se encontró una mayoría de estudiantes que en la edad primaria sufrieron violencias alfabetizadoras, en la secundaria y bachillerato, el gozo de la lectura en voz alta y comentada, bibliotecas inexistentes en los relatos, la escuela o academia si bien como espacio de formación importante las más de las veces bloqueadora de procesos creativos y la tesis como un primer acercamiento a la lectura y escritura “formal” y en este caso un Plan de Acción Territorial como trabajo de grado de la especialidad. Se concluye qué la deserción escolar, el trabajo recepcional deficiente y en este caso, dificultad para desenvolverse dentro de las TICs tienen su origen en inequidades estructurales y no dentro de las personas, grupos o comunidades.

description: Decentralization is a foundational principle of permissionless blockchains, with consensus mechanisms serving a critical role in its realization. This study quantifies the decentralization of consensus mechanisms in proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchains using a comprehensive set of metrics, including Nakamoto coefficients, Gini, Herfindahl Hirschman Index (HHI), Shapley values, and Zipfs coefficient. Our empirical analysis across ten prominent blockchains reveals significant concentration of stake among a few validators, posing challenges to fair consensus. To address this, we introduce two alternative weighting models for PoS consensus: Square Root Stake Weight (SRSW) and Logarithmic Stake Weight (LSW), which adjust validator influence through non-linear transformations. Results demonstrate that SRSW and LSW models improve decentralization metrics by an average of 51% and 132%, respectively, supporting more equitable and resilient blockchain systems.
Behaviour and design of high strength steel structural elements and frames

description: The behaviour and design of high strength steel (HSS) welded I-section structural elements and frames subjected to different loading configurations are studied in this thesis. The thesis is intended to evaluate and improve the current Eurocode 3 (EC3) design provisions for HSS structures, and to facilitate the deformation-based advanced design of HSS welded I-section structural elements by means of second-order inelastic analysis with strain limits. Normal strength steel (NSS) counterparts are also studied for comparison purposes. A novel residual stress model for welded I-sections made of varying steel grades has been firstly developed and calibrated based on a large data pool of residual stress measurements collected from literature. This model was employed in subsequent numerical studies throughout the thesis. A comprehensive experimental programme on HSS welded I-section structural elements and frames was then carefully conducted. At the member level, a total of six three-point bending tests and five column flexural buckling tests were performed, while at the system-level, eight fixed-base single-storey HSS frames were tested in-plane under different combinations of horizontal and vertical loads. Digital image correlation (DIC) was used in the experimental programme to trace the spread of plasticity at critical cross-sections as well as the full-range deformation-field of the frame specimens. The test results, together with existing test data on HSS welded I-section members collected from literature, were used for the validation of finite element (FE) models. Numerical parametric studies were then carried out using the validated FE models to generate extensive structural performance data. Based on the experimental and numerical data, modified EC3 design rules for individual members under compression and combined loading were developed, showing improved levels of accuracy and consistency relative to the current EC3 design rules. In addition, the test results of the frames highlighted the potential for extending plastic design to HSS structures, which is currently prohibited in EC3. Finally, an advanced deformation-based design method by second-order inelastic analysis with strain limits was extended to HSS welded I-section structural members and has been shown to provide superior resistance predictions compared with the current EC3 design methods.

title: Die Lieder der Bewegung "Eiserne Garde" im Rumänien der Zwischenkriegszeit
Creators: name: Draghiciu, Andra-Octavia
Year: 2011

description: Die rumänische radikal-nationalistische Bewegung „Eiserne Garde“, bzw. „Legion des Erzengels Michael“, die sich den faschistischen Bewegungen der europäischen Zwischenkriegszeit unterordnen lässt, spielt eine sehr wichtige Rolle in der neueren Geschichte Rumäniens. In ihrem Glauben, der einer Ideologie nur bedingt gleich zu setzen ist, vereinigen sich sowohl Elemente der rumänisch-orthodoxen Tradition, als auch revolutionär-moderne Auffassungen, die zu der Schaffung eines „neuen Menschen“ führen sollen. Die Legionäre glaubten, für dieses Ideal sterben zu müssen und waren auch dazu bereit. Der Führer der Bewegung, Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, war für sie die Verkörperung dieses Ideals, ein Übermensch, der alle orthodox-traditionellen Werte des rumänischen Volkes in sich einbinden konnte. Der Kontrast zwischen Glaube und Wirklichkeit trat aber bald ans Licht, als die Legionäre im Dienste ihres „heiligen“ Zieles, zu unorthodoxen Maßnahmen, wie Mord, griffen. Was die „Legion“ aber zu einer eigenartigen sozialen und politischen Bewegung Rumäniens macht, ist die Art der Legionäre, politische Propaganda zu treiben. Sie nahmen Abstand von politischen Programmen und demagogischen Reden und setzten ihre physische Kraft ein, indem Studenten, Arbeiter, Schüler, Ärzte, Anwälte, usw., den Bauern bei der Ernte halfen, Kirchen, Dämme und Häuser reparierten und Gemüsegärten bebauten. Sie imponierten den Menschen aber nicht nur durch ihre Hilfsbereitschaft und ihren aktiven Einsatz, sondern auch durch ihre strenge Disziplin. Die „Legionäre“ marschierten singend von Dorf zu Dorf in ihren Uniformen und beeindruckten die Massen. Als sehr wichtigen Teil des legionären Lebens erscheint somit das Lied. Zahlreiche legionäre Lieder zu allen Bereichen des legionären Glaubens hatten die Funktion, die Disziplin zu erhalten, den Glauben zu äußern und die Seele zu entlasten. Kein Ereignis im Rahmen der „Legion“, ob positiv oder negativ, blieb unbesungen, sodass die Lieder zum Spiegel der Entwicklung der „Legion“ seit dem Anfang und bis zu ihrem Ende wurden.

description: When children learn how to program, they gain problem- solving skills useful to them all throughout life. How can we attract more children in K-8 to learn about program- ming and be excited about it? To answer this question, we worked with a group of children aged 7-12 as our design partners. By partnering with the children, we were able to discover approaches to the topic that might appeal to our target audience. Using the children’s input from one design partnering session, we designed a prototype tangible pro- gramming experience based upon the theme of cooking. The children evaluated this prototype and gave us additional de- sign ideas in a second session. We plan to use the children’s design ideas to guide our future work.

description: The overall aim of the MIrreM project is to address the uncertainty and contested nature of evidence on irregular migration by fostering a shared understanding of basic features of the phenomenon, and in particular, its quantitative dimension, including the scope and importance of different pathways into and out of irregularity. Developing a clear conceptual framework that transparently describes, justifies and communicates how irregular migration can be understood is a key element of such an undertaking and the focus of this paper. Specifically, this paper provides a conceptual framework for the identification of the population in an irregular situation for the purpose estimating and quantifying this population. In so doing, the paper considers both the irregular migrant population, as well as other migrants with an unstable legal status. Distinguishing between three overarching status categories, it classifies the population of irregular migrants and related categories into different ‘classes’.  A typology of pathways into and out of irregularity, that is, of ways how migrants become or cease to be in an irregular situation is a key element of the classification system. 

The MIrreM classification of migrant irregularity builds on the rich body of work on migrant irregularity. Specifically, we draw on the model of migrant irregularity developed by the Clandestino project (2007-2009). In the context of the MIrreM project we propose several refinements to this classification systems, specifically also in relation to the categories of migrants considered and the ‘classes’ of migrants distinguished within the various categories. This paper is thematically linked to and complemented by the MIrreM ‘taxonomy of migrant irregularity’.

Discussion. The molecular phylogeny of Fedosov et al. (2018) has important implications for the taxonomy of European Mitridae. As in Landau et al. (2019), Fedosov et al.’s generic descriptions and concepts are followed herein.
Key to Mitridae genera in the Paratethys*
1. Shell fusiform to elongate fusiform....................................................................... 2 Shell squat, ovate, last whorl rounded...................................................... Wormsina nov. gen. Shell broad fusiform, last whorl shouldered................................................. Fraudiziba nov. gen.
2. Spiral sculpture covers entire shell, or almost so............................................................. 3 Spiral sculpture restricted to early whorls and base........................................ Episcomitra and Isara **
3. Spiral and axial sculpture............................................................................... 4 Spiral sculpture only................................................................................... 5
4. Relatively strong cancellate sculpture on early spire whorls............................................ Calcimitra Weak cancellate sculpture on earliest spire whorls......................................... Cancilla (some species)
5. Elongate fusiform, relatively tall spire, prominent basal concavity....................................... Domiporta Fusiform, gradate spire, thickened outer lip, strongly twisted fasciole..................................... Nebularia Elongate fusiform, high aperture, long siphonal canal, hardly constricted at base............................ .. Cancilla
* Protoconch type is genus specific, but is not used in the key as the protoconch is usually not preserved. However, we recognize three categories: paucispiral protoconch (Episcomitra, Fraudiziba), multispiral (Calcimitra, Domiporta, Nebularia, Cancilla), and variable or unknown (Isara, Wormsina).
** Episcomitra and Isara cannot be separated based on shell characters (see generic discussions).
