Gryllomorpha longicauda

description: Gryllomorpha longicauda (Rambur, 1839)
Acheta longicauda Rambur, 1839: 34.
Type locality: Spain, surroundings of Malaga.
Distribution: Spain, Morocco, Canary Islands (?) (Chopard 1943; Gorochov and Llorente 2001). Biogeographic zones: Tellian Atlas, Saharian Atlas.
Bioclimatic zones: Humid, semiarid.
Records in Algeria: According to Chopard (1943), this species, known from Andalousia only, would be present in Morocco and perhaps Algeria. Its presence has actually been confirmed at Senalba-Chergui [34°39'N 3°11'E] (Ferarsa 1994) and at Beni Ghobri [36°45'N 4°7'E] (Hiddouche and Amari 2003). It was mentioned from Koudiat Ati [36°21'N 6°36'E] in the surroundings of Constantine by Lucas (1849).

(Fig. 1 b, 3a–b).
Crypturgus subcribrosus Eggers 1933: Entomologische Blätter für Biologie und Systematik der Käfer 29, p.5. Holotype in NHMW, examined. New status.
Diagnosis. Length 1.0– 1.3 mm, mature colour bronze yellow or brown, rarely dark brown. Surface of the pronotum reticulate, dull, with sparse and shallow, obscure punctures. Striae of elytra weakly impressed, interstriae gently rounded, micro-shagrinate, dull. Female declivity usually with a long tuft of yellow hair-like setae (sometimes abraded in older specimens), never with two patches of micro-sensillae within the tuft. COI barcodes deposited in GenBank under accessions EU 011808 - EU 011811.
Remarks. This species is very similar to C. cinereus but can usually be distinguished by the less elevated interstriae of the elytra which has a micro-shagrinate texture, by the strongly reticulated pronotum that appears more finely shagrinated with fewer and obscure punctures, and that the female elytral declivity lack patches with micro-sensillae. In his original description of C. subcribrosus, Eggers (1933) also noted the gently rounded interstriae and 'skin-like' appearance of the cuticle: "Zwischenräume auch ganz flach, fein hautartig gerunzelt". Exceptional specimens do overlap in this character, however, and longer series from each locality is sometimes needed to obtain correct identification based on morphology only. These problems are well illustrated by the fact that Eggers also mixed the two species in his own collection in NHMW (Knizek, pers. obs).

Bocainella

description: Bocainella gen. nov.
Type species. Bocainella minima, new species.
Description. Frons large, transverse. Antennal tubercles prominent and distant. Genae rounded. Eyes coarsely faceted, upper lobe absent. Antennae 11-segmented; scape short and cylindrical, about 1/3 shorter than segment 3; segments 3-4 filiform; segments 5-11 gradually shorter to the apex. Prothorax as long as wide, rounded at sides. Pronotum strongly convex. Anterior coxal cavities closed behind and intermediate open to epimera. Metasternum short, as long as mesosternum. Scutellum very small, triangular. Elytra fused, convex, about 2 times as long as prothorax; apex conjointly rounded. Humeri not projected. Hind legs about 1/ 3 longer than forelegs. Femora subclavate; first segment of metatarsi as long as second segment. First urosternite 1/3 longer than second; second to fourth subequal in length; fifth slightly longer than fourth, rounded at distal margin.
Etymology. The genus epithet refers to the type locality, Serra da Bocaina in the state of São Paulo, Brazil.
Remarks. Bocainella gen. nov. is similar to Cupeyalia, Maisi, Nanilla, and Ipochus, sharing the rounded sides of the prothorax; all other Western Hemisphere genera have tubercles or spines at the sides of the prothorax. Bocainella differs from these four genera by the combination of: the lack of the superior ocular lobe; antennae 11-segmented; elytral surface with tubercles and spines; and femora subclavate. Cupeyalia differs from Bocainella in the presence of the superior ocular lobe, the antennae 7-segmented, and the elytral surface not tuberculate. Maisi has the superior ocular lobe, elytra without tubercles or spines, and femora clavate. Nanilla has the superior ocular lobe, elytra with tubercles but without spines, and femora linear. Ipochus has the superior ocular lobe, elytra without tubercles or spines, and femora clavate. Only one monotypic genus, Plaumanniella (Fig. 3), occurs in Brazil; it differs from Bocainella, in addition to the presence of tubercles at the sides of the prothorax, in having long and erect hairs on the body, and the elytral surface without tubercles or spines.

Caudelytra quadrispinosa Franz, 1954: 222, pl. 1, fig. 8; Breuning, 1971: 326; Monné, 2005: 607 (in syn). Monné & Giesbert (1992: 252) considered Caudelytra quadrispinosa Franz, 1954 as a synonym of Mecynome aenescens Bates, 1885. However, examination of material from El Salvador, Department of Santa Ana (the type locality of C. quadrispinosa is Monte Cristo, in the same Department), allowed us to propose that this species be revalidated and transferred to the genus Mecynome.
Mecynome quadrispinosus (Fig. 4) differs from M. aenescens (Fig. 5) by the elytral apices projected in a long and acute spine, and the fifth urotergite with a deep median, arcuate emargination and bispinose at the angles. In M. aenescens, based on the description of Bates (1885: 335), the elytral apices are subacuminate, and the fifth urotergite is rounded at its apex.
Specimens examined. EL SALVADOR, Santa Ana: Trifinio, 4 males, 2 females, 11.X.1959, J. Bechyné leg. (MNRJ).

Hephathus Ribaut, 1952: 437
Asmaropsis Linnavuori, 1978: 17
Type species: Bythoscopus nanus Herrich-Schäffer, 1835
Diagnosis. Body form typical of Macropsini. Face as in Macropsis, but both males and females with larger lora. Pronotum slightly wider than head, pronotal striations weakly oblique. Forewing with 3 anteapical cells. Hind tibial macrosetae 5 –7. Male pygofer unarmed, or with short stout spine arising on ventral margin, directed dorsad. Dorsal connectives slender and unarmed, or unsclerotized.
Hephathus resembles Macropsis in both body form and male genitalia, and they may be closely related. The former differs from the latter in having larger lora and the posterior notch of the male and female pregenital tergite rounded rather than quadrate (Hamilton 1980).

The Resistor Noise Index – an intuitive reformulation
Creators: name: Kosub, Tobias
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The noise index (NI) of a resistor or resistive sensor is a property that is not commonly regarded as being overly relevant. It is not typically given in component datasheets. However, when one is concerned with precision measurements, the noise index of the device under test is often literally all you need to know! It is absolutely decisive and other properties fade in relevance. One reason why the noise index might not receive the attention it deserves, could be its awkward definitions and resulting unintuitive value. In this technical note, two alternative definitions for the noise index will be presented. Both are easier to relate to measured quantities and they give the precision limit of the resistor or resistive sensor in a direct and intuitive way. The reformulation also highlights the meaning of the noise index for material physics.

Source of material. The larvae studied were collected in association with adults at the following localities: Venezuela: Bolivar State: Los Pijiguaos; morichal / rock outcrop, 80 m; 06°35.617’N 66°42.238’W, 16.ix.2007, one instar II and two instar III, leg. A.E.Z. Short, M. Garcia, L. Joly; Río Aponwao, small streamlet, 1340 m; 05°.50’.49.2N’’, 61°28’.2.4’’W, 31.vii.2008, one instar II and one instar III, leg. A.E.Z. Short, M. Garcia; 2 km East Río Chucivero, rock outcrop seeps, 45 m; 07°.29’.47.3’’N, 65°51’.44.8’’W, 06.viii.2008, two instar III, leg. A.E.Z. Short, M. Garcia, L. Joly; Los Pijiguaos, stream at outcrop, 80 m; 06°.35.617’N, 66°49.238’W, 08.vii.2010, one instar I and two instar III, leg. A.E.Z. Short, Teles, Arias; Rock outcrop by morichal, 75 m; 06°.52.196’N, 66°35.405’W, 09.vii.2010, three instar III, leg. A.E.Z. Short, Teles, Arias. Larval specimens were collected in seepages on granite outcrops of Guiana Shield (see figures 20–21 in Gustafson et al. (2016)). In most cases, these seepages are seasonal and go completely dry for part of the year.
Diagnosis. Larvae of P. agallithoplotes are unique within all known Agabinae by the presence of numerous additional setae on the cephalic capsule (Figs 1–2), abdominal segment VIII (Figs 12–13) and urogomphi (Fig. 14). Among other unique characters that facilitate a readily recognition of this species within other known Platynectes described in detail (i.e., P. bakewelli, P. curtulus, P. davidorum, P. decemnotatus, and P. reticulosus) are: the presence of six lamellae clypeales (instar I) (Fig. 1), prementum subquadrate, as long as broad, not fully sclerotized ventrally (Figs 8–9), primary seta TA1 inserted medially (Fig. 11) primary setae AB8 and AB14 lanceolate (Fig. 12), presence of several hair-like setae notably on metacoxa, metatibia and metatarsus (instar II–III) (Figs 24–25).
