Triassoscarta subcostalis Tillyard, 1919: 874–875, text fig. 8. Syn. nov.
Material. Holotype tegmen GSQ 112a, holotype tegmen of Mesoscytina affinis GSQ 235 (labelled “Undoubtedly = M. australis B[enjamin]. D[unstan].”), holotype tegmen of Triassoscarta subcostalis GSQ 116a, all Denmark Hill. Three additional tegmina: Denmark Hill: “Tegmen G” GSQ 320a/b+; Esk: ACC: QM F58693 +,? F58694 +.
Description. Tegmen 9.3–9.5 mm long, 3.5–3.6 mm wide (holotype 9.5, 3.5), length/width 2.6–2.9; R gently curved basally, at point of curvature costal space wider than space between R and M; RA strongly inclined; no colour pattern detected.
Notes. The holotype of M. affinis is the basal half of a tegmen identical in size and venation to that of the holotype of M. australis. The Esk tegmen, QM F58693 (Fig. 3), although older and from a different formation, is referred to the species on its similar size and basic venation, although CuA is more deeply forked than in the holotype. It has dSc well preserved. The other Esk tegmen is the same size but poorly preserved. Its identity therefore remains doubtful.

(Figs 7–8)
Material. Holotype tegmen QM F58698 +, Gayndah, collected by K.J. Lambkin. One other tegmen: Gayndah: QM F58699.
Description. Tegmen 5.9 mm long, 2.2 mm wide (holotype data only), length/width 2.7; R distinctly angulate basally, at this point costal space narrower than space between R and M; RA strongly inclined; distal ¾ apparently generally darkly suffused (more apparent in counterpart of holotype).
Notes. M. woodsi is distinguished from the previous two species by its smaller size and the more angulate base of R. The second specimen is the apical two thirds of a tegmen, and although poorly preserved is identical in size and dimensions to the holotype. Because of its poor preservation, however, it is not designated a paratype. The specific name honours former GSQ palaeontologist Jack Tunstall Woods who, in 1962, identified the original small collection of insects from Gayndah and insightfully noted that “their diversification suggests that the locality may be worthy of exploitation for these fossils” (Woods 1962).

Paries cellularis laevis, in cellulis immaturis <0.5 µm crassus, sed in cellulis maturis magnis usque ad 5.0 µm crassus. Chloroplasti numerosi discoideo–polygonii pyrenoidibus carentes, parietales sed interdum ad interioribus cellulae plicati. Autosporis 2–4–8–16 per sporangium regenerans.

Type:— NEW ZEALAND: Westland: Mt Philistine, 1400 m, preserved cultured specimen from sample collected 30 November 2007, CHR610485.
Cells spherical, 5.0–24.0(–60.0) µm wide, single or in loose, irregular groups. Cell wall smooth, <0.5 µm thick in young cells, but up to 5.0 µm thick in large, mature cells (Fig. 2C). Numerous discoidal–polygonal chloroplasts lacking pyrenoids, parietal but occasionally folded towards the cell interior (Fig. 2A). Reproduction through autospores, 2–4–8–16 per sporangium (Fig. 2D). Zoospores not observed. Cells in older cultures develop red pigmentation in the cytoplasm, especially immediately surrounding the nucleus and when exposed to strong light (compare Figs 2F and G). DNA sequence data for 18 S showed the species to belong to Bracteacoccus, but without close affinities (Fig. 7).
Habitat:— Alpine herbfield soil.
Distribution:— New Zealand.
Etymology:— Referring to the red pigmentation developed by older cultures.
Observations:— Data for rbc L failed to reconstruct Bracteacoccus as a clade (Fig. 9); the phylogenetic conclusions are therefore drawn from 18S data. The size and red colouration of B. ruber resemble those reported for B. minor (Chodat) Petrová 1931, but the two are not closest relatives according to DNA sequences. Fučíková et al. (2011) suggest that Bracteacoccus (Tereg 1923) and Pseudomuriella (Hanagata 1998) are morphologically cryptic genera. However, our strain of Bracteacoccus is clearly related to B. aerius (Bischoff & Bold 1963) UTEX 1250, which falls in the Bracteacoccus clade of Fučíková et al. The large cells with multilayered wall suggest B. giganteus (Bischoff & Bold 1963), but 18S rDNA sequences clearly distinguish this from B. ruber (Fig. 7).
Capacity to develop the red colouration was found to diminish over time following isolation from field material, especially if the population underwent a culture cycle in liquid medium before replating on agar. A crude spectrophotometer test indicated that the pigment absorbs in the UV spectrum (data not shown).
Cultures:— LCR-CG8.

Material. Holotype tegmen QM F58700, Dinmore, collected by Robert Knezour.
Description. Tegmen 10.6 mm long, 4.0 mm wide, length/width 2.6; base of R and costal space as in M.
fistulae; RA only slightly inclined; basal section of RP (before rp–m) much shorter than in the other species of the genus; colour pattern similar to M. fistulae, but dark areas more extensive, the medial pale area narrower and the distal pale area apparently reduced to three spots (Fig.9).
Notes. Mesoscytina magna, from the Dinmore site of the Blackstone Formation, is distinguished from its congeners by its larger size, more upright RA, and shorter basal section of RP. The apparent forking of the posterior rather than the anterior branch of M (as in other species of the genus) is not considered significant as the basal connections of the apical venation, as evidenced by M. fistulae, are quite variable. The species name alludes to its larger size.

(Figs. 3, 4, 7, 44–54)
Description. Coloration & external morphology. Head and thorax ochraceous with fuscous markings; frontoclypeus with 3 small black spots on dorsal angle (central spot often slightly larger); fore wing pale ochraceous, widely infuscate at apical and posterior margins. Head swollen anteriad, 2.2 times as wide as long; pronotum weakly obscured near posterior margin, 1.2 times as long as head; female 7th abdominal sternum pentagonal, 0.9 times as long as wide, with caudal margin produced posteriad and slightly emarginate at middle.
Male genitalia. Pygofer lobe slender, furnished with about 10 short setae near caudal margin, narrowed near base and weakly sinuate at ventral margin, with inner process not forked; inner process long and robust, almost straight but bent at apical 1/6, parallel to ventral margin of pygofer lobe, protruding beyond caudal margin. Subgenital plate oblong, 4.2 times as long as wide, bearing many macrosetae on distal 2/3. Style slightly bent dorsad near apex, with tip slightly hooked ventrad; apex of style reaching about half length of subgenital plate. Aedeagus robust; dorsal apodeme very small; shaft slightly widened at apex in lateral view, with widened ventral projection and pair of apical processes; ventral projection tectiform, as long as shaft, distinctly wider than shaft and 3 times as wide as shaft; apical process very short; gonopore apical on ventral surface.
Body length. ď, 9.0 mm; Ψ, 9.6 mm.
Type material. Holotype: ď (SUU), Dôdaira, Tennoji-one, Tanzawa Mts., Kanagawa Pref., Honshu, Japan, 17. VII. 1993, K. Takahashi. Paratype: [Kanagawa Pref.] 1Ψ (SUU), Mt. Ôyama, Tanzawa Mts., 14. VII. 1980, M. Hayashi. The holotype is deposited in the Department of Biology, Faculty of Education, Saitama University, Saitama, Japan.
Distribution. Japan (central Honshu: Kanagawa Prefecture).
Remarks. This species is similar to Pagaronia conformata in habitus, but differs in the shape of the inner pygofer process and ventral projection of the aedeagus. Furthermore, it is also somewhat similar to P. s p i n o s a in the sinuation of the inner pygofer process, but differs in having the inner pygofer process wider, the dorsal apodeme of aedeagus very small, and the ventral projection of the aedeagus short and much widened. This condition of the aedeagus is unique within the protecta -group.

Pagaronia spinosa Hori, 1994: 156, figs. 8–14.
Taxonomic note. This leafhopper had been known from four localities in Aichi Prefecture, and it was previously reported that the fuscous marking of the fore wing is sometimes obscure (Hori, 1994). Through our research, eleven localities in three prefectures are newly recorded, and some variations in the shape of male genitalia are recognizable. This species is unique in the structure of the male genitalia. The inner pygofer process is very long and the short ventral branch is forked near the base of the process. The shaft of the aedeagus is slender and has a very long spine-like ventral projection (Figs. 55, 56). Two males collected from northeasternmost localities, Bungui Pass and Ôkawara, are slightly different from the others in the pygofer lobe and inner pygofer process; the pygofer lobe is shorter and wider; the inner process has no ventral branch and is directed dorsally (Fig. 57).
Body length (mean). ď, 8.5–9.5 mm (8.8 mm); Ψ, 9.0– 9.6 mm (9.4 mm).

description: The objective of the HMC Data Professionals Survey 2024 is to gain insights into the perspectives, workflows and needs of research data professionals in the Helmholtz Association. The survey is part of HMC's mission to enhance the sustainable management of research data and to more closely align its services with the needs of data professionals at various Helmholtz centers. A comprehensive and anonymized questionnaire is used to collect data from participants across a range of Helmholtz research centers.

The objective of this poster is to present the findings of the survey and provide an overview of the current state of research data management within the Helmholtz Association. The objective of our analysis is to identify common themes and areas for improvement, which will provide a basis for the development of targeted support and resources for data professionals. The analysis will entail customizing the HIFIS-analysis framework, mapping free-text responses and iterating data representations in order to ensure an accurate and comprehensive understanding of the survey data.

The responses of the survey are analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods to gain a better understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing data professionals. The analysis will assist HMC in identifying gaps and needs related to metadata practices, training, resource allocation, and collaboration tools.

The results of this survey will be made available to the community to ensure transparency and encourage feedback from participants. Dissemination of these results will facilitate an ongoing dialogue with data experts about the future of metadata management, which will contribute to the advancement of data science and research in the Helmholtz Association.

= Intercloeon Kluge & Novikova 1992, syn. n.
Hierarchical name: Similicloeon /g1: Kluge 2011: 362
Type species: Cloeon simile Eaton 1870.
Diagnosis. Larva. In contrast to Cloeon, additional dorsal lamella of tergalii without anterior-proximal projection; dorsal lamella may be absent on tergalii of some posterior pairs. Labial palp with 3rd segment (truncate) either widened, or non-widened. Cerci and paracercus with long bare last segments (as in Cloeon, in contrast to Pseudocentroptilum and Procloeon). In contrast to Procloeon, distal part of cercus without one large spine on each segment (Kluge & Novikova 1992: Fig. 5: 10–13).
Winged stages. In contrast to Cloeon, unpaired sclerotized projection of penial bridge semicircular or truncate; fore wing of female not colored. Known species without hind wings. Oviparous.
Distribution. For certain known from Palaearctic Region.
Composition. Similicloeon petropolitanum (Kluge & Novikova 1992 [Cloeon (Intercloeon)]) comb. n., Similicloeon praetextum (Bengtsson 1914 [Cloeon]) comb. n., Similicloeon schoenemundi (Bengtsson 1936 [Cloeon]) comb. n., Similicloeon simile (Eaton 1870 [Cloeon]) comb. n., Similicloeon spiniventre (Kluge & Novikova 1992 [Cloeon (Intercloeon)]) comb. n.
Discussion. Originally, Intercloeon was separated from Similicloeon by widened labial palp, which was regarded to be a synapomorphy of Intercloeon and Procloeon (Kluge & Novikova 1992). Actually, this character repeatedly appears among Cloeonini, that is proven by the fact that both widened and non-widened labial palps are found among species of the holophyletic taxon Cloeon s.str.

Diagnosis. 4–6 basal antennal articles virtually lacking setae; cephalic plate not marginate laterally; tergites 3(4)–21(22) with paramedian sutures, ultimate tergite lacks lateral margination; LBS 7 lacks spiracles; femur, tibia and tarsus of the ultimate legs densely setose.
Description. For morphological details see Schileyko (2014) and Schileyko & Stoev (2016) (the most recent data on this species) who described specimens from Venezuela and East Indonesia (West Papua Province) respectively.
Range (by Schileyko & Stoev 2016). Mexico, Central America (Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, Panama), Greater Antilles (Puerto Rico, Haiti), Lesser Antilles (Martinique, Saint Vincent and Grenadines, Trinidad), South America (Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil), Australasia (Fiji Islands), Indochina (Nicobar Island, Vietnam), Taiwan, Philippines, Eastern Indonesia, Papua New Guinea.
Remarks. Only Attems (1953) reported this widespread species from Vietnam (Langbiang Mountains in Lam Dong Province). Attems (1953) considered the complete absence of leg’s accessory spines to be a diagnostic character for S. melanostoma, but Schileyko & Stoev (2016: 250) described the corresponding rudiments (recognizable at x85 magnification) in material from West Papua. In fact, the main diagnostic character of this species is the absence of any lateral margination of the tergites, including the ultimate.
