description: Liolaemus tropidonotus Boulenger
Liolaemus tropidonotus Boulenger 1902: 397 (type locality: “Tirapata, E Peru, 13000 feet ”, see Núñez 2004: 33). Liolaemus multiformis Burt & Burt 1931: 227 (see Núñez 2004).
Observations: Liolaemus tropidonotus represents an additional controversial species apparently related to L. annectens and L. signifer. After its original description (Boulenger 1902), Burt & Burt (1931) placed this taxon into the synonymy of L. multiformis (which is in turn a synonym of L. annectens fide Laurent 1992; see also Etheridge & Espinoza 2000). However, in a recent taxonomic reassessment, Núñez (2004) suggested that the type series of L. tropidonotus (preserved in the British Museum of Natural History of London) exhibits substantial patterns of morphological differentiation from the group of Andean species consisting of L. annectens, L. pleopholis and L. signifer (see Cei 1993; Pincheira-Donoso & Núñez 2005). This author concluded that the distinctive traits observed among these taxa do not support the idea of their synonymy, and that therefore, L. tropidonotus should be revalidated, at least while a more detailed evaluation provides contrary evidence. Since no other study has so far been presented, we follow Núñez’s (2004) criteria, and recognize L. tropidonotus as a species different from L. annectens and L. signifer. We believe that these morphological contrasts (see Núñez 2004, for details) may be the result of independent adaptive radiations leading to fully segregated phylogenetic lines.

Liolaemus reichei

description: Group reichei
The species herein included in the group reichei have commonly been recognized as members of the controversial genus Phrynosaura (Werner 1907; Donoso-Barros 1966a, b, 1972; Núñez & Jaksic 1992; Núñez et al. 2003). Over the last century, many authors have suggested that clear patterns of differentiation in osteological and cytogenetical traits observed exclusively in L. audituvelatus, L. erroneous, L. manueli, L. poconchilensis, L. reichei and L. torresi would support the hypothesis that these species represent a discrete evolutionary line (e.g. Núñez et al. 1998, 2003). Yet, on the other hand, some studies conclude that these traits may not be sufficient evidence to separate this still hypothetical group of species from the Liolaemus genus (Frost & Etheridge 1989; Etheridge 1995; Etheridge & Espinoza 2000; Valladares 2004). Recent molecular phylogenies have contributed to clarify in part this problem. This research reveals that at least the two “ Phrynosaura ” species analysed phylogenetically so far, are nested within Liolaemus (Valladares et al. 2002; Schulte et al. 2004). Therefore, these findings appear to support Frost & Etheridge’s (1989) and Etheridge’s (1995) proposal that Phrynosaura is a synonym of the genus Liolaemus. Nevertheless, it still remains unknown whether the currently six species assigned to Phrynosaura (or alternatively to the group reichei; see Núñez et al. 2003; Valladares 2004) actually form a monophyletic clade within this genus (phylogenetic evidence suggest that these species are members of the series signifer; see above). Since the anatomical and cytogenetical evidence reported in previous papers suggests that these six species would be closely related taxa (Núñez et al. 2003), we include them into the group reichei (e.g. Valladares 2004). However, further phylogenetic studies are needed to test the validity of this classification criterion.

Ecological and biological notes
Nylanderia jaegerskioeldi was collected nesting in moist soil under a rock. Several workers were collected from leaf litter next to the trees of Vachellia and Ficus L. (Moraceae Gaudich.).
Geographic range
Originally described from Egypt, Nylanderia jaegerskioeldi is considered a successful tramp species. LaPolla et al. (2011) proposed an African origin for this species, but it is widely distributed in the Arabian Peninsula (Collingwood 1985; Collingwood & Agosti 1996; Collingwood et al. 1997, 2011), the Palearctic (Espadaler & Bernal 2003; Gómez & Espadaler 2006; Kiran & Kaaman 2012; Borowiec & Salata 2012; Taheri & Reyes-López 2018; Gómez 2017; Rad et al. 2018), and the Afrotropical Region (LaPolla et al. 2011). This species is reported here for the first time in Dhofar.

description: When building an econometric model, the equation residuals may be both simultaneously and temporally correlated. In the following Monte Carlo Study I try to visualize the effect of that problem on the estimators generated by six different methods of estimation. I postulate a two-equation model without a lagged endogenous variable. In this system I change various parameters: the sample period size, the level of simultaneous correlation, the level of autocorrelation, and the residual variances. This study is the second part of my MA thesis, which is written in French, presented at the University of Montreal.
description: Un des problèmes auxquels nous faisons face lors de l'estimation d'un modèle économétrique est la présence de résidus corrélés instantanément et temporellement. Dans l'étude de Monte-Carlo qui suit, nous tentons de visualiser l'effet de ce problème sur les estimateurs obtenus par six différentes méthodes d'estimation. Le modèle utilisé est un modèle fictif à deux équations sans variables endogènes retardées. Dans ce système nous faisons varier différents paramètres: la taille de l'échantillon, le niveau de corrélation instantanée, le niveau d'autocorrélation et la variance des résidus. Cette étude est tirée de ma thèse de maîtrise (texte français) présentée à l'Université de Montréal.

Plagiolepis pygmaea var. barbara Santschi, 1911: 286 (w, m) Tunisia. Palearctic.
Diagnosis
Yellow-brown, gaster yellowish, paler than rest of body, legs and antennae yellow, propodeal dorsum red-brown. Eyes, in full-face view, fail to break head sides; second funicular segment as long as or little longer than broad; third funicular segment little longer than broad; second and third funicular segments nearly sub equal; fourth funicular segment distinctly longer than broad, and little longer than third; eyes large with eleven ommatidia in longest row; metanotal groove feebly impressed; dorsum of head with abundant but widely spaced pubescence.
Material examined
This species was not collected during the present study.
Ecological and biological notes
It has been found nesting directly in loose, dry soil under rocks in the southwestern Mountains of KSA. In the Canary Islands, Espadaler (2007) noted the same type of nesting habits for the species, but some nests were reported in wood debris.
Geographic range
It was described first from Morocco, with other records from Tunisia and Algeria (Santschi 1920). The species has been recorded from the Arabian Peninsula from Oman, KSA, and Yemen (Collingwood & Agosti 1996). It is known also from several countries of the Palearctic Region, including the Canary Islands (Espadaler 2007), and Egypt (Sharaf 2006). This species was collected in Dhofar by Collingwood & Agosti (1996).

description: This study investigates farmers’ needs, ideas and interests on the adoption of Fossil Energy Free Technologies and Strategies (FEFTS). 470 direct farmer surveys and 41 expert interviews were conducted in 8 EU countries to identify the barriers and drivers to the adoption of FEFTS, results were analysed using SPSS. The findings suggest that the adoption of FEFTS is driven primarily by economic factors, with cost reduction emerging as a dominant motivation for adopting renewable energy sources (RES) and energy-saving technologies/practices. Environmental concerns also play a significant role. Farmers indicate that financial support and access to tailored cost benefit models for their farms are important drivers to becoming FEFTS adopters. Based on these results we argue that enhanced financial support as planned in the Common Agricultural Policy 2023–2027 together with national advisory services that support innovation and knowledge transfer are necessary to drive the adoption of FEFTS in the agriculture sector.

Geographic range
The original description was of a single male from Yemen. Our specimens represent the first records of the subfamily Leptanillinae from Oman. The species has been recorded from Yemen (Collingwood & Agosti 1996; Collingwood & van Harten 2001) and UAE (Collingwood et al. 2011). Alates of this subfamily were recently collected using light traps from the southwestern mountains of the KSA (Sharaf & Aldawood unpubl. data).
