description: Elachista spiculifera Meyrick, 1922: 509
Material examined: ɗ, labelled: rounded white label with blue margin “Para- | lecto- | type ”; white rectangle “Ootacamund | S. India | TBF. 12.12; Elachista | spiculifera | 3/10 Meyrick | E. Meyrick det. | in Meyrick Coll.; B. M. ɗ | Genitalia slide | No. 29579”. In BMNH.
Male. Forewing length 3.5 mm; wingspan 7.9 mm. Head: Vertex and neck tuft mottled due to brown tips of greyish scales; frons whitish with some metallic lustre; labial palpus whitish above, fuscous below, apex dark brown; flagellum dark brown, weakly ringed in distal part. Thorax: Forewing pale, greyish brown, weakly mottled by dark brown tipped scales. Dark brown scales beyond the middle of wing formed two irregular spots near the costal and tornal margins. Same scales present in apical part, where they form a small irregular spot. Hindwing dark brown.
Female. Unknown.
Male genitalia (Figs. 10–12). Uncus lobes narrow, curved, basally bulbous, narrowed towards tip; ventral surface covered with setae which are in basal part long and thin, in median area short and broad. Basal arms of gnathos straight, spinose knob small and rounded. Valva about 5.5 times longer than wide; sacculus basally slightly expanded, medially strongly concave, distally with very prominent, stout and curved (almost rightangled) spine which is broadest medially and extended much beyond cucullus; costa reinforced. Digitate process long, abruptly dilated and covered with few thin setae. Median margin of juxta lobes strongly sclerotized; lobes rounded, with few short setae. Vinculum produced into long wide blunt-tipped saccus. Aedeagus long and slender, shorter than valva, weakly bent at distal 1/6; basal part broadened, with prominent dorsal lobe of caecum; vesica with one long spinelike cornutus.
Distribution. India (Fig. 4).
Biology. The specimens of the type series were collected in September–December; no other information available.
Diagnosis. E. spiculifera can be distinguished most easily from other species of the E.
freyerella species-group by unique shape of the digitate process.
Remarks. In BMNH there are nine other specimens (4 of them with the abdomen missing) collected in southern India and identified by E. Meyrick as E. spiculifera, but these specimens have not been examined by us.

description: Genus Baptista Distant, 1903. New record for China
Baptista Distant, 1903: 173. Type species: B. gestroi Distant, 1903: 173, by original designation.
Baptista: Andersen 1989: 365; Kovac & Yang 2000: 163; Zettel 2004: 444.
Diagnosis. Medium-sized veliids (2.4–4.1 mm), form apterous or macropterous, body elongate, covered by dense pubescence. Head produced posteriorly, extending well behind hind margin of eyes. Antennae long and slender, antennal segment I slightly curved, segment III twice as long as segment II, segments III and IV very slender, almost filiform. Clypeus protruding, rostrum slender with its apex reaching middle of mesosternum. Pronotum of macropterous form pentagonal and pronotum of apterous form with broadly rounded posterior margin. Macropterous hemelytra with four closed cells. Hind leg longer than middle leg, male fore leg specially modified (in B. gestroi and B. femoralis species groups, femur or tibia curved, with tumescence, pilosities, etc.; in B. collaris species group, tibia with conspicuous row of short, stout, blackish spines or protuberances ventrally). Fore tibia of male with short grasping comb. In B. femoralis species group, abdominal segments VI and VII usually strongly modified with finger-like extensions. Male genital segments distinctly protruding. Parameres large, symmetrical (in B. femoralis species group, parameres falciform; in B. collaris species group, parameres distally more or less dilated). Female genital segments plainly visible behind sternite VII.
Baptista is similar to the genera Lathriovelia, Polhemovelia, and Geovelia. Baptista is distinguished from Lathriovelia by the eyes lying adjacent to the anterolateral angles of the pronotum (in Lathriovelia, the eyes are distinctly separated from the anterolateral angles). Baptista differs from Polhemovelia and Geovelia by having the male fore leg highly modified, with the femur or tibia curved, and their ventral surfaces bearing various tumescences, pilosities, protuberances, or a conspicuous row of short, stout, blackish spines (Figs. 14 –20).
Distribution. Burma, Laos, India, Thailand, West Malaysia, China (Yunnan) (Fig 46).

description: Ectinogonia minor Olave, 1936:368
[Figures 40–42]
¿ Syntype?: “ ♀ // Coll. Olave Chile. Amer. m. // Cotipo // EX COLECCION Dr. A. Cobos // Ectinogonia buqueti ssp. minor Olave A. Cobos det 1.952 // ¿Sintipo? MNCN Tipos N° 7942 // MNCN _Ent 275881”
Current status: Ectinogonia (Ectinogonia) minor Olave, 1936 (Bellamy, 2008).
Comments: Olave (1936:368) described this species from three specimens collected by Rodolfo Wagenknecht in “Baños El Toro” (> 3000 m.a.s.l.). For this taxon a holotype was not designated, thus the three type specimens should be considered as syntypes.
The labels of the specimen examined here (Fig. 40–42) indicate that it is a “cotype” of Ectinogonia buqueti minor Olave that belongs to the Olave Collection (coll. Olave Chile.Amer. m.), but the label added during curatorial activities cataloguing the types indicate its type status with question marks (¿?) as a possible syntype.
It is not clear that this specimen belongs to the type series of E. minor because it does not bear a label that indicates the type locality established by Olave (1936:368) in the original description of E. minor (Baños El Toro), and the identification label was added later by A. Cobos in 1952.
Despite the above, we think it is probable that it does correspond to one of the three syntypes of E. minor, since it matches its original description and bears a label that indicates that it belongs to the Olave collection. In addition, the label that identifies the specimen as "cotype" could have been originally added by Luis E. Olave since it has the same format and typography as that of the labels of other type specimens of taxa described by Luis E. Olave (i.e. Conognatha obenbergeri Olave, 1938 (MNCN-CSIC)). The current location of the type specimens of the species described by Luis E. Olave is unknown. Five entomological boxes that belonged to the research collection of Luis. E. Olave are currently deposited in the collection of Victor Manuel Diéguez M., Santiago, Chile (VMDC), but unfortunately, none contain type specimens.
The presence of this specimen in the collection of A. Cobos is explained because the collection of Luis E. Olave was communicated by him to A. Cobos (Cobos 1954:51).

Hindwing dark brown, nearly concolourous with forewing.
Female. Unknown.
Male genitalia (Figs. 13–16). Uncus lobes narrow, curved, basally bulbous, narrowed towards tip; ventral surface covered with setae which are in basal part long and thin, in median area short and broad. Basal arms of gnathos reinforced, spinose knob large and oval. Valva rather wide; sacculus basally expanded, medially convex, distally with rather short spine. Digitate process long and narrow, distally dilated and covered with few thin setae. Median margin of juxta lobes strongly sclerotized, weakly S-shaped; lobes rounded, with short setae. Vinculum large, produced into long parallel-sided and blunt-tipped saccus. Aedeagus long and slender, conspicuously longer than valva, gently bent at basal and apical 1/6; a small triangular tooth at apex; basal part broadened, with prominent dorsal lobe of caecum; vesica with an arrow-shaped cornutus.
Distribution. India (Fig. 4).
Biology. Holotype was captured in May; no other information available.
Diagnosis. E. stichospora differs from all other known species in the E. freyerella species-group by a combination of several characters: gnathos large, sacculus with a small distal spine, a single cornutus, and apex of the aedeagus with a lateral tooth.

Dasymallomyia Brunetti 1911: 304.
Type species: Dasymallomyia signata Brunetti, 1911 (monotypic).
Diagnosis. General coloration yellow or fulvous, patterned with polished black on prescutum. Wing with Sc ending slightly proximal to level of fork of Rs; R 3+4 forked; R 2 situated slightly proximal to fork of R 3+4; cell m 1 absent; cell dm closed or open by atrophy of basal section of M 3. Legs covered with long setae, mostly longer than diameter of femur; mid and hind coxae close to each other. Femora each with dark subterminal ring. Tibial spur absent. Male terminalia not rotated. Gonocoxite projecting posteriorly beyond base of gonostyli. Clasper of gonostylus pale and flat, long simple lobe. Lobe of gonostylus blackened, various in shape. Interbase absent. Ovipositor with tergite 8 reduced or fused with tergite 9; sternite 9 roundly produced at caudal margin and border between sternite 9 and hypogynial valve distinct; cercus long and slender.
Remarks. This genus includes eight species (4 spp. in the Palaearctic and 5 spp. in the Oriental Regions) (Oosterbroek 2021). It resembles Ellipteroides (Ramagonomyia) Alexander, 1968 in venation and male terminalia, but the latter subgenus has the following characters: body generally black including legs; R 2, if present, placed more than length of itself proximal to fork of R 3+4; legs covered with setae shorter than diameter of femur.

Current status: Ectinogonia (Kheiliella) melichari penai Cobos, 1954 (Bellamy, 2008; Giraldo-Mendoza 2019).
Comments: The type specimens of Ectinogonia penai are syntypes because a holotype was not designated. The type locality and data of the type series of this taxon is “El Cuzco (Perú), 24-II-1950. L. E. Peña coll.”. Peña (1974: 263) indicates that the holotype and one homotopotype are deposited in his own collection (Luis E. Peña G. collection), which is now housed in the Field Museum of Natural History, Illinois, USA (FMNH). The syntype labelled as holotype was recently found at the FMNH and illustrated by Pineda (2022). The FMNH specimen bears a holotype label and a handwritten label by A. Cobos, reading: “ Ectinogonia (s. str.) peñai nov. sp. A. Cobos det. 1.953”. The original description of this taxon clearly established that A. Cobos received two specimens from his colleague Luis E. Peña when he was finishing his Ectinogonia review, which are probably the ones deposited in the MNCN-CSIC collection (Fig. 43–48). It is possible that A. Cobos labeled the two specimens that he received from Luis E. Peña as paratypes, and one specimen in Peña's collection was labeled as the holotype of this taxon as stated by Peña (1974: 263), although we do not know if it was seen by A. Cobos despite its identification label.

description: This research introduces a novel nonlinear model that can be used in the modified Friedman method to determine activation energy via linear regression with a trial-and-error approach. Its application in a simulated reaction enhanced precision in activation energy determination and accurately captured the trend in activation energy variation with temperature compared to quadratic regression. The nonlinear model can also predict nonlinearity in compensation effect relationships, aiding in the assessment of pre-exponential factor, rate constant, and conversion function in complex reactions, ensuring more precise results compared to linear model. By incorporating random noise into the simulated reaction’s isoconversional kinetic data, which follows a normal distribution, we observed that both nonlinear and quadratic regressions produce comparable activation energy values. However, the nonlinear compensation effect approach yields more precise results for the pre-exponential factor, rate constant, and conversion function compared to the linear model in the presence of random errors. The novel approach based on the nonlinear model was applied, in conjunction with the linear and quadratic Friedman methods featuring linear compensation effect, to compute the kinetic parameters of a polymer coating on a commercial optical fiber as well as a polyethylene. Gnu Octave/MATLAB codes were also made available for estimating the kinetic parameters of complex reactions exhibiting a single peak in reaction rate curves using the linear, quadratic, and nonlinear Friedman methods, along with the application of linear and nonlinear compensation effects. These codes can be customized by users to estimate the kinetic parameters of their own kinetic data.

description: Poropuntius krempfi (Pellegrin & Chevey, 1934)
Barbus (Lissochilichthys) krempfi Pellegrin & Chevey, 1934: 339. Type locality: Vietnam, Tonkin, Ngoi-Thia River at Nghia Lô, tributary of Red River upstream of Yên Bay. Holotype: MNHN 1934-0262.
Barbus (Puntius) annamensis Pellegrin & Chevey, 1936: 225, fig. 3. Type locality: Vietnam, Annam, Qu ảng Nam, Hàn Giang. Holotype: MNHN 1935-0337.
Lissochilus macrosquamatus Mai, 1978: 99, fig. 42. Type locality: northern Vietnam. Syntypes: DVZUT.
Notes.
Specimens of Poropuntius krempfi (Fig. 3 A, B) were recovered in a clade including topotypic material of Barbus annamensis and Lissochilus macrosquamatus. The clade was sister to a large clade including P. alloiopleurus, P. heterolepidotus, P. huangchuchieni, P. laoensis, and P. opisthopterus (Fig. 2 A).
Specimens of P. krempfi from northern Annam (MNHN 1935: 0337, MNHN 1969: 42) were assigned by Rainboth (1996) to Hypsibarbus annamensis presumably due to the presence of a few tiny tubercles on the tip of the snout, but this trait is not useful for separating all species of the two genera. Some of our 41 specimens of P. krempfi have tiny tubercles on the tip of the snout. Rainboth (1996) noted that this species was unusual in being the only species of Hypsibarbus on the coastal side of the Annam Cordillera and in having a much longer dorsal spine with 26–28 serrations, compared to 20 or fewer in other species in the Mekong River drainage.
Hypsibarbus macrosquamatus from Song Hong, northern Vietnam (type: DVZUT) described by Mai (1978) and treated as Acrossocheilus macrosquamatus by Nguy ễn and Ngô (2001) resembles our P. krempfi specimens from northern Annam with a lateral-line scale count of 29–33.
Distribution.
Poropuntius krempfi is found in the Song Hong and northern Annam ecoregions.

description: Verruca sp.
Material. A movable tergum, a fixed tergum, a?carina (incomplete), fragments of other plates.
Locality and stratigraphic age. Lower Eocene, Crescent Formation, LACMIP locality 16655.
Description. All plates with and exterior ornamented by low, fine radial ridges, permeated by a single row of pores; movable tergum damaged, but quadrangular, with single and very narrow apico-basal rib and raised (incomplete) portion equating to a secondary rib close to movable scutum margin; height of fixed tergum equal to width, apex damaged, but probably close to movable tergum margin; radio-alar extensions incomplete, base of extension on carinal side suggesting a moderate size; carinal side with single, well-developed articulating rib; interior with deep apical depression occupying upper half of plate.
Measurements. Movable tergum height c.1.00mm (incomplete); fixed tergum width c. 0.5mm, height 0.45mm.
Discussion: This material is too incomplete to warrant a formal designation. The plates are very small and the fixed tergum may be from a juvenile. They also appear to have been altered diagenetically – the pores that permeate the shell are infilled with a mineral (possibly pyrite); the shell in some fragments is more iridescent than usual in a verrucid, sometimes with microcrystalline calcite attached. It differs from all other fossil Verruca by having a very narrow apico-basal rib on the movable tergum; a second rib, close to the movable scutum margin is incomplete. However, the narrow apico-basal rib may be either a deformity, or simply reflecting early ontogeny. Apart from the noted oddities of the movable tergum, these plates are unremarkable, and not unlike material from the southwest of the United States.
Nonetheless, this is an important find – it is certainly the oldest verrucid from the West Coast USA. It is hoped that further collecting will enable a full description of this taxon.
