Holotype.
1 ♂ (by original description, as indicated by Wittmer’s original type label and determined by authors in this study).
Type locality.
“ Long Petah ” (from page 3, “ Fundort: “ M. O. - Borneo Expedition, Long Petah, 450 in, IX – X. 1925 (leg. H C. Siebers) ”).
Material examined
(1 ♂ specimen). Holotype: INDONESIA ● ♂; (1) “ Holotype ”; (2) “ H. C. Siebers / M. O. Borneo Exp. / 1200 M. bij L. Petak / 15–20 X. 1925 VIII – IX ”; (3) Pygoluciola / stylifer / Wittm. / det. W. Wittmer ”; (4) “ T. Y. P. US. ” (Fig. 6 A).
Diagnosis.
P. stylifer belongs to that group of Pygoluciola where males have the posterior margin of V 7 and T 8 narrowly prolonged and curving (Fig. 6 B, C). It and P. guigliae are the only species of this genus to have curved tibiae, and it is distinguished from guigliae by the median emargination of the apex of the prolonged posterior margin of V 7 (visible in Fig. 6 B).
Notes.
McDermott (1966) submerged Pygoluciola under Luciola as a subgenus, and Ballantyne (1968) briefly addressed Luciola stylifer with line figures of the terminal abdomen and aedeagus. Ballantyne and Lambkin (2006) returned Pygoluciola to generic status and gave a more extensive description of the male holotype with line figures of pronotum, aedeagus and terminal abdominal segments.
Here, we have the first opportunity to present coloured pictures of the type male and verify the original labels that come with the specimen. Wittmer (1939), in the original description of P. stylifer, made it clear that the type is “ in coll. Rijksmuseum Leiden ” (now RMNH). However, upon comparing Wittmer’s original species description with the original labels attached to the type specimen in RMNH, we find that the information he provided was not consistent: (1) He wrote “ 450 m ”, but it was “ 1200 M ” on the label; (2) He spelt the locality name “ Long Petah ”, but it should be “ L. Petak ” or “ Long Petak ”; (3) The months of 1925 from his description were “ IX – X ”, but then it was written “ VIII – IX ” on the label.

Material examined. Two specimens (details in Table 1). One imature specimen (MNRJ-PLAT 35, 12 mm x 9 mm) as sagittal sections of reproductive structures (12 slides). Collected 30.12.2008 at Ilha do Papagaio, Cabo Frio, Brazil (22°53'53.21"S, 41°58'59.40"W). One imature specimen (MNRJ-PLAT 36, 12 mm x 8 mm) preserved in 70% ethanol. Collected 0 6.02.2009 at Praia das Conchas, Cabo Frio, Brazil (22°52'33.05"S, 41°58'39.27"W).
Distribution. Described from Birds Islands, Bermuda (type locality; Verrill 1901), reported from Curaçao (Marcus & Marcus 1968), Caribbean coast of Colombia (Quiroga et al. 2004b), Florida, Virgin Islands, Jamaica, Belize, Honduras and Caribbean coast of Panama (Rawlinson 2008), Brazil (Bahia & Padula 2009). Specimens herein studied were found under rubbles in the intertidal and sublittoral zones.
Diagnosis. Dorsal coloration from yellow to dark brown, white spots present; white marginal band with greyish black transversal stripes; bright yellow to greenish marginal line sometimes present.
Taxonomic remarks. Pseudoceros bicolor, described without histological sections (Verrill 1901), was amended by Litvaitis et al. (2010). These authors also studied the P. bi co l o r complex through a molecular approach. It was observed that specimens treated as a single species in papers such as Rawlinson (2008) and Bahia & Padula (2009) belong, in fact, to two distinct species with similar coloration pattern. The other species included in this complex is Pseudoceros rawlinsonae Bolaños, Quiroga & Litvaitis, 2007. We separated specimens in the P. bicolor complex by considering P. b i c o l o r the ones without marginal line or with a thin line bright yellow to greenish at the worm margin, as indicated by Litvaitis et al. (2010). Our immature specimens were of a smaller size (12 mm x 9 mm) than originally described (30 mm x 15 mm), but they agree with features reported in the original description and recent amend (Litvaitis et al. 2010).

(Fig. 10)
Material examined. One specimen (MNRJ-PLAT 33, 55 x 37 mm) as sagittal sections of reproductive structures (24 slides) collected 16.10.2009 at Praia das Conchas, Cabo Frio, Brazil (22°52'33.05"S, 41°58'39.27"W). One specimen in ethanol 70% (MNRJ-PLAT 34, 64 x 36 mm). Collected 17.10.2009 at Paredão Sul, Ilha do Papagaio, Cabo Frio, Brazil (22°54'3.28"S, 41°59'1.21"W).
Distribution. Pseudobiceros pardalis was described from Bermuda (Verrill 1900) and reported from Bahamas, south Florida and Panama (Bolaños et al. 2007). It is herein reported for the first time from Brazil. This record expands the species distribution to a transition/limit zone between tropical (Tropical Southwestern Atlantic and Subtropical Southwestern Atlantic Provinces) and subtropical environments (Spalding et al. 2007).
Diagnosis. Purple reddish dorsal surface with orange dots, delimited by black line; white dots also delimited by black line near the margin and body margin also with black surrounding line. Ventrally same pattern, light reddish purple, translucent above the reproductive organs and pharynx.
Taxonomic remarks. Our specimens are in agreement with the original description and the re-description (Bolaños et al. 2007). We only disagree on the type of pseudotentacles that are formed by complex folds of the anterior margin, not simple folds as stated in the redescription. Our specimens have lighter coloration than the ones in the original description (Verrill 1900) and redescription (Bolaños et al. 2007), probably due to their larger size or to differences in the nutritional conditions of the animals. In the field, specimens were darker, as illustrated in Figure 10. We also noted a black line surrounding the margin. Observed differences in coloration as reported in other papers can occur due to different specimen size (60 x 40 mm in the original description, from 25 x 14 mm to 40 x 25 mm in Bolaños et al. (2007) and 55 x 37 mm – 64 x 36 mm in our specimens).

description: Anaphothrips genus-group in Japan
Kudo (1989) reported six members of this group from Japan, together with an identification key; Apterothrips secticornis and five grass-living species of Anaphothrips: asahi, badius, obscurus, ponokikirmui and sudanensis. Of these, two are endemic to Japan, A. asahi and ponokikirmui, but A. badius is a European species known from Hokkaido, and A. obscurus is widespread around the world in the temperate zone, and is one of the most abundant species from Hokkaido to Kyushu. Anaphothrips sudanensis is widely distributed in warmer areas of the world, and is common from Kyushu to Okinawa in southwestern Japan. Apterothrips secticornis is known from mountainous areas in Honshu, Aptinothrips rufus is widely distributed in the temperate to polar zones, and A. stylifer is abundant in the northern part of Japan and mountainous areas in Honshu. Chilothrips yamatensis is widespread in Honshu (Kudo, 1978), breeding in Pinus flowers but with adults often collected from other plants. In Honshu, this species has an emergance period of about one month, April to May. A new species of Oxythrips is described below that has been recognized on Pinus flowers since Saikawa (1972). Paroxythrips includes two species; one from Podocarpus in Japan and the other from Agathis in Australia (Masumoto & Okajima 2017). Paroxythrips podocarpi is widely distributed on young leaves of Podocarpus macrophyllus from the western part of Honshu to Okinawa, and larvae are collected together with larvae of Scirtothrips dorsalis. One new species of Rubiothrips is described below from Galium in the mountainous area of central Honshu; this species was previously misidentified as Anaphothrips silvarum (Tsutsumi 1995).

(Fig. 1)
Described from Hawaii and also recorded from Australia (Mound & Masumoto 2009), this species is here newly recorded in Japan. It is very similar to A. asahi in having slender uniformly pale body and 8-segmented antennae. However, swezeyi has no CPS on the metascutum, the abdominal tergites lack sculpture lines medially, and abdominal tergite VIII has a long and complete posteromarginal comb. In contrast, asahi has CPS present on the metascutum, abdominal tergites with weak sculpture lines, not smooth medially, and tergite VIII with the posteromarginal comb more irregular. Moreover, A. swezeyi is always macropterous in both sexes, but females of A. asahi are usually micropterous (males always micropterous).
Specimens examined. Japan: Ryukyus, Okinawa Island, Naha City, Sueyoshi park: 1 female on Oplismenus undulatifolius [Poaceae], 22.i.2005 (TUA). 1 female on Poaceae, 17.v.2014 (TUA). 2 females on Poaceae, 3.v.2015 (TUA).

Rubiothrips Schliephake, 1975: 11. Type species: Anaphothrips ferruginea Uzel,1895, by original designation.
Female. Wings present, small to fully developed. Mouth-cone moderately long, with 3-segmented maxillary palpi. Compound eye with 6 pigmented facets ventrally. Ocellar setae minute, pair I present, I and II arranged transversely. Postocular setae 4 pairs usually arranged transversely. Antennae 8-segmented, segment I without median dorsal apical setae, III and IV with simple or forked sensoria, III–VI with some microtrichial rows on both dorsal and ventral surfaces. Pronotum without major setae. Mesonotum with median pair of setae far from posterior margin. Metascutum reticulate; median pair of setae far from anterior margin. Metapre-episternum weakly developed, tapering distally and with one seta. Prosternal ferna undivided, narrow at middle; basantra membranous and without setae; prospinasternum broad and transverse. Spinula present on mesosternum, but absent from metasternum. Fore wing usually shaded along two longitudinal veins, with veinal setae minute; first vein with long gap in setal row; second vein with setae irregularly spaced; posterior fringe cilia wavy. Tarsi 2-segmented. Abdominal tergites without posteromarginal craspeda and ctenidia (Fig. 42); tergites II–VII with S3 setae (posteroangular setae) inserted at or near posterior angle; tergites II–VIII with S1 setae (median pair of setae) much longer than their interval; tergite VIII without posteromarginal comb; tergite IX with MD setae prominent; tergite X with median split almost complete; sternites without posteromarginal craspeda or discal setae; sternites III–VII with three pairs of posteromarginal setae (Fig. 44), but II with two pairs; pleurotergites with setae (S6 setae) in front of posterior margins (Fig. 45). Ovipositor developed.
Male. Abdominal tergite IX without short and stout setae; sternites III–VI or VII each with an oval or ovoidal pore plate.
Comments. Previously, all nine species included in this genus are known between Europe and Iran (ThripsWiki 2017; Mirab-balou & Chen 2013). Generally, this genus shares many character states with Anaphothrips but it can be distinguished by the key above, also by having pleurotergites with setae in front of the posterior margin, whereas these setae arise on the posterior margin in Anaphothrips.

Type material examined. Ƥ, lectotype (here designated) (MNHN (EH)7475), with Noualhier’s hand-written label: “ Type Fieber” (NLC).
Note. The species was based on a female (or females) from Portugal. The female from NLC corresponds to Fieber’s drawings (hind margin of VII sternum with characteristic two small horn-shaped acuminate projections medially) and it is here designated as the lectotype.
Sergel (1986) examined two males from Madrid, deposited in the NMW, determined by Melichar as Issus climacus, and figured their genitalia. The taxonomic position of this material is unclear. Sergel (1986) reinstated I. climacus from synonymy with I. lauri Ahrens, 1814 which had been proposed by Haupt (1926).

Type material examined. 3, lectotype (here designated) (MNHN (EH)7476), with hand-written label: “Görz” (NLC); 3, paralectotype (MNHN (EH)7477), with Noualhier’s hand-written label: “ Type Fieber” (NLC).
Note. Fieber mentioned Italy, Southern France, and Tyrol as type localities for the species. According to Fieber’s manuscript he studied at least a male and a female. Two males from NLC correspond to Fieber’s drawings (male genitalia are figured). The male from Görz (Austria, Tyrol) is here designated as the lectotype and another male without geographical label is here recognised as a paralectotype. Apparently the last male was figured by Fieber, because it has genitalic complex exposed and accordingly this male is from Croatia as written on the drawing. We prefer to designate the specimen from Görz as the lectotype because Tyrol was mentioned as one of the type localities while Croatia was not. In NLC and PC there are also females in a row “ Issus frontalis ”, but their taxonomic position is unclear, because identification is only possible for males. These may be the female specimens mentioned by Fieber (1876) in his original description of the species and, if so, are paralectotypes.
The synonymy of I. frontalis and I. muscaeformis proposed by Löw (1883) and supported by Holzinger, Kammerlander & Nickel (2003) is incorrect.

description: We consider a one-dimensional random walk Sn with i.i.d. increments, zero mean and finite variance. Consider tx := inf{n ≥ 1 : x + Sn ≤ 0} — the first passage times. For x ≥ 0 we study the asymptotic expansion for the tail distribution P(tx > n) under the condition that one-step distribution has finite high moments. We also derive asymptotic expansion for local probabilities P(Sn = x, t0 > n). The cases of lower deviations (x=o(√n)) and of normal deviations (x ∼ √n) considered separately, they require different approaches and lead to different answers, moreover the proof for x ∼ √n is based on asymptotic expansions for smaller x. Studying the asymptotic expansions in lower deviation case we obtain a sequence of discrete polyharmonic functions and obtain analogues of renewal theorem for them.

Type material examined. 3, lectotype (here designated) of Issus truncatus Fieber (MNHN (EH)7478), with Noualhier’s hand-written label: “ Type Fieber” (NLC).
Note. I. truncatus was based on a male (or males) from Southern France. The male from NLC corresponds to Fieber’s drawings (male genitalia are figured) and it is here designated as lectotype.
I. truncatus was placed in synonymy with I. muscaeformis by Melichar (1906). The synonymy of I. truncatus and I. novaki Dlabola, 1959, proposed by Holzinger, Kammerlander & Nickel (2003), is incorrect.

Note. Issus luteus was based probably on two males from Italy. In NLC there is a male with Noualhier’s hand-written label: “ Type Fieber”, but without a small green square and with genital segments invisible externally, while Fieber has figured the male genitalia of possibly a second specimen. We prefer to designate a male with exposed male genitalia as a lectotype if one can be found in the future.

Type material examined. Ƥ, lectotype (here designated) (MNHN (EH)7470) (PC).
Note. The species was based on a female (or females) from Bielsa (Huesca Province of Spain) collected by (or received from) Scott. The female from PC without label corresponds to Fieber’s drawings and it is here designated as lectotype.
The species belongs to the genus Tingissus Gnezdilov, 2003, according to the characteristic rounded transverse keels on the gonoplacs, the anal tube twice as long as wide and the presence of 7 intermediate spines on the first metatarsomere apically. Dlabola (1984) figured male genitalia of H. melanophleps but incorrectly placed H. fuscovenosum Fieber, 1877 (see below) and H. guadarramense Melichar, 1906 in synonymy under it. Examination of the types of all mentioned species supported their validity (Gnezdilov, 2010 and present data). Recently Gnezdilov (2003) incorrectly transferred H. melanophleps to the genus Agalmatium Emeljanov, 1971.

Other material examined. Italy, Sardegna: 13, 2 Ƥ, Porto Santoru, 13.VI.1936, F. Hartig (MC) MNHN (EH)16444- 16446.
Notes. The species was based on a male (or males) from Southern France collected by (or received from) Mulsant. The male from PC, with unbent fore wing and exposed genitalia, with hand-written label “Muls” (apparently meaning Mulsant) corresponds to Fieber’s drawings (male genitalia were figured) and is designated here as the lectotype. The male from NLC, with small green square is therefore a paralectotype.
H. fuscovenosum Fieber belongs to the genus Iberanum Gnezdilov, 2003 and according to the structure of the male genitalia is a senior synonym of Iberanum nuragicum Gnezdilov & Mazzoni, 2003 described from Sardinia (Gnezdilov & Mazzoni, 2003). Recently the species was recorded also from Corsica (Gnezdilov, 2010).

Note. The species was based on a male (or males) from Portugal (in Fieber’s manuscript: “Aus Portugal (Fieber)”). The specimen from NLC corresponds to Fieber’s drawings and this is here designated as lectotype. I. fissala belongs to the Oriental genus Thabena Stål, 1866, redefined recently by Gnezdilov (2009), according to the features: metope with median carina crossed by transverse carina below its upper margin, fore wings narrowing apically, without hypocostal plate, clavus with cuspidal caudo-dorsal angle, hind wings well developed, bilobed. Fieber figured a very wide male anal tube which is also a characteristic feature of some species of the genus Thabena.

Enhancing Fused Magnesia Smelting Process Demand Forecasting Through the Integration of System Identification and Advanced Deep Learning Techniques

description: Accurate demand forecasting is essential for industrial production optimization, particularly in the fused magnesia smelting process. Current forecasting models can be complex, requiring rigorous system identification and lack the flexibility to adapt to various scenarios. This paper proposes a novel approach to demand forecasting using Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BiLSTM) networks, a type of deep learning model, which simplifies the modeling process while retaining robust predictive capabilities.

We constructed and trained a BiLSTM model using time series data from the fused magnesia smelting process. We implemented an efficient data preprocessing approach to convert time series data into a supervised learning format. The model was trained on multiple features over 20 epochs, with a configuration that balanced training speed and gradient estimate noise.

Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. With an R-Squared value of 0.930745, our model could explain approximately 93% of the variance in our dependent variable, reflecting high predictive accuracy. Compared to existing research, which employs a combination of system identification and deep learning, our model simplifies the forecasting process and maintains comparable performance levels.

However, the model assumes a stable market environment and might not capture non-linear relationships within different datasets effectively. Future research could explore the integration of our BiLSTM model with other forecasting methodologies or deep learning architectures, and investigate ways to enhance the model's robustness to abrupt market fluctuations. This research opens up new possibilities for flexible, accurate, and efficient demand forecasting in the fused magnesia smelting process.

An oxide-promoted, self-supported Ni4Mo catalyst for high current density anion exchange membrane water electrolysis
Creators: name: Serban, Ariana

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Anionic exchange membrane (AEM) water electrolyzers are emerging as a cost-effective technology for green hydrogen production. However, state-of-the-art AEM electrolyzers rely on platinum group metal (PGM) catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Currently, PGM-free HER catalysts exhibit inadequate activity and stability at high current densities in electrolyzer environments. Here, we report a simple electrodeposition method for a self-supported Ni4Mo-MoOx catalyst. This catalyst exhibits remarkable HER activity, as demonstrated both in three-electrode cells as well as in prototype AEM electrolyzers.  In particular, the catalyst enables AEM electrolyzers to operate stably at current densities as high as 3 A/cm2, which had not been reported for a non-PGM HER catalyst. The performance (2 V@3 A/cm2) is comparable to the benchmark Pt/C, whereas the stability is even higher. Characterization and particularly operando X-ray diffraction and absorption spectroscopy reveal that the catalyst is an unconventional tetragonal Ni4Mo with a D1a superlattice whose surface contains in-situ formed MoOx species. The cooperative action of MoOx and Ni4Mo enhances the Volmer step of HER, attributing to the superior activity
