description: Dinemasporium Lév., Annls Sci. Nat., Bot., sér. 3, 5: 274 (1846)
Notes:— Léveillé (1846) introduced Dinemasporium with D. graminum (Lib.) Lév. as the type species. Dinemasporium members have superficial, setose, cupulate conidiomata, discrete or integrated conidiogenous cells and fusiform, naviculate or allantoid, aseptate conidia, with one setula at each end, with or without lateral appendages (Crous et al. 2012, Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016, Hyde et al. 2020a). This genus is broadly distributed on various woody plants and some species have been recorded from soil and human sputum (Hussaini et al. 2000, Crous et al. 2012, Deshmukh & Verekar 2012, Hashimoto et al. 2015, Liu et al. 2015). There are 43 Dinemasporium species listed in Index Fungorum (2021).

Holotype: Madagascar, Ranomafana National Pk., 2115.629'S, 4725.149'E, J. Benstead: 29.10.1998, 1♀ [USNM]. Paratype: Madagascar, Prov. Fianarantsoa, 7km W Ranomafana, 900m, 17.– 22.02.1990, W.E.Steiner \ Malaise trap in small clearing, montane rain forest, 1♀ [USNM].
Habitus. As for the genus; WL 7.1mm in the paratype, 7.6mm in the holotype.
Male. Unknown.
Female. Ovipositor of the same structure as in the congeners but extremely long and thin, almost half as long as the abdomen (Fig. 24).
Notes. Named after Renaud Paulian, in recognition of his pioneer work on the Plecoptera of Madagascar. Male and larva are presently unknown. The species is very different from all the ones described by R. Paulian. Indeed, the overlong ovipositor is unique among Plecoptera. The geographic coordinates on the holotype label suggest it was collected at the Mariavaratra stream.

EXPLORING LEADERSHIP STRATEGIES FOR MAXIMIZING NONRESIDENT ALIEN ENROLLMENT IN THE WAKE OF FINANCIAL M&A IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

Subjects: Merger and acquisition, higher education institutions, nonresident alien rates, Event Study theoretical framework, Title IV HEIs.

description: This study examines the impact of merger and acquisition (M&A) activities on nonresident alien rates in higher education institutions (HEIs) in the United States. The study utilized an Event Study theoretical framework to conduct a quantitative causal-comparative analysis to determine if there was any significant interaction effect between time and merger status upon revenues, fall enrollment rates, and nonresident alien rates for Title IV HEIs. The study found that nonresident alien rates did not significantly increase due to M&A activities and that other factors caused growth in nonresident alien rates apart from M&A activity. It recommends that the most effective means to improve nonresident alien rates lie elsewhere. The article suggests that M&A initiatives may not cause an immediate boost in brand recognition in the international arena. This research contributes to the literature by offering a rigorous analysis of the merger effects on HEIs and recommending benchmarks for future research.

description: Robillarda Sacc., Michelia 2(no. 6): 8 (1880)
Notes:— Robillarda was introduced by Saccardo (1880) and typified by R. sessilis Sacc. Robillarda members are characterized by their flexuous, narrow tubular, aseptate appendages and holoblastic conidiogenous cells, proliferating sympodially or percurrently near the apex (Crous et al. 2015, Jaklitsch et al. 2016, Hyde et al. 2020a). Robillarda species have a worldwide distribution, on various host species (Crous et al. 2015, Liu et al. 2019, Hyde et al. 2020a). There are 17 Robillarda species listed in Index Fungorum (2021).

Monotypic.
Distribution. SE Brazil, from Minas Gerais to Santa Catarina states.
Descriptive notes. Head-body 220-270 mm, hindfoot 35-45 mm. No specific data are available for body weight. Color of the Shiny Guinea Pig is similar to the Brazilian Guinea Pig (C. aperea), but dorsum is richer reddish brown with a buffy venter. There is also a small dark band on the throat.
Habitat. Flooded marshland in central Brazil, and some indication that the Shiny Guinea Pig prefers semi-mountainous areas along the coast; otherwise little is known aboutits habitat preferences.
Food and Feeding. There is no information available for this species.
Breeding. There is no information available for this species.
Activity patterns. There is no information available for this species.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. There is no information available for this species.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Shiny Guinea Pig has a wide distribution and occurs in protected areas.

Typen material: Holotypus ♂♂: ̎TR Mersin (42), road Slifke - Gülnar, 1000 m / 36°20'37N, 33°35'17E (42), leg. 6.5.200 4, Brachat & Meybohm ̎ [cES].
Etymologie: Zu Ehren von Heinrich Meybohm, der Material aller drei hier beschriebenen Arten, aber auch viele weitere Belege vieler Cryptophagidae-Arten sammelte.
Beschreibung: Männchen, 1,4 mm, einfarbig hell rotbraun, glänzend, Hinterflügel reduziert. Mit kurzer heller Behaarung, die einzelnen Haare erreichen nicht die Basis des folgenden Haares (vorderes Drittel der Flügeldecken). Beine von gewöhnlicher Länge, nicht auffallend kräftig, Vordertarsenglieder 1 bis 3 leicht erweitert (nur beim Männchen). Fühler lang und schlank, alle Glieder der Geissel länger als breit, lediglich Glied 8 ist kugelig. Die Glieder 9 bis 11 (Keule) sind ebenfalls gestreckt, Glied 11 spindelförmig. Punktur von Kopf, Halsschild und Flügeldecken mässig grob und dicht, der Abstand der Punkte im ersten Flügeldeckendrittel entspricht etwa ihrem Durchmesser oder ist geringfügig grösser. Der Kopf ist ohne Auffälligkeiten, die Augen von gewöhnlicher Grösse. Der Halsschild ist 1,35 mal so breit wie lang, seine Seitenränder schmal verflacht und von oben gleichzeitig sichtbar. Die Seiten des Halsschildes sind etwa in der Mitte stark, aber abgerundet gewinkelt und davor und danach fast gerade verengt. Die Halsschildbasis ist auf ganzer Breite verflacht, der Hinterrand ist nach hinten flachbogig vorgezogen. Im Bereich der Verflachung ist die Punktur dichter. Die Behaarung ist auf die Mitte des Halsschildes gerichtet. Die Flügeldecken sind oval und ohne Auffälligkeiten. Aedoeagus s. Abb. 10.
Bemerkungen: Fällt unter den einfarbig hellen Arten durch die glänzende, recht kurz behaarte Oberseite, die gewinkelten Halsschildseiten und reduzierten Hinterflügel auf. Der Aedoeagus ist wenig charakteristisch.

Differential diagnosis. This new species from the Central Atlas (Morocco) belongs to the Acalles sierrae group (see above) of the subgenus Acalles s. str. It is—from a morphological and molecular perspective—closely related to Acalles asniensis Stüben, 2003 and should be compared with the holotype of this species (coll. CURCULIO-Institute) from the type locality near Asni (High Atlas):

Taxonomy. Cavia aperea patzelti Schliemann, 1982,
“Hochkordillere von Alao, Provinz Chimborazo, Equador,” Alao, Chimborazo, Ecuador.
H. Schliemann noted morphological differences between this species and other Cavia taxa, but assigned it to aperea. J. L. Dunnum and J. Salazar-Bravo in 2010 supported the elevation to species based upon molecular and karyological data. Monotypic.
Distribution. Chimborazo Mt, C Ecuador. Observations suggest its presence beyond the type locality.
Cavy (Kerodon acrobata); 19. Patagonian Mara (Dolichotis patagonum); 20. Chacoan Mara (Dolichotis salinicola).
Descriptive notes. Head-body 280-290 mm, ear 50 mm, hindfoot 46-50 mm; weight 700-725 g. Greatest lengths of skull are 63-69 mm. Back of the Sacha Guinea Pig is dark reddish drown.
Habitat. High-elevation paramo in Ecuador at elevations of 3000-3800 m (type locality). This area has marshy areas and grassy slopes, with some forests of Polylepus (Rosaceae).
Food and Feeding. The Sacha Guinea Pig is herbivorous and associated with Stipa (Poaceae).
Breeding. There is no information available for this species.
Activity patterns. There is no information available for this species.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. There is no information available for this species.
Status and Conservation. The Sacha Guinea Pig has not yet been classified as a distinct species on The IUCN Red List. At the time of the last [UCN assessment, the Sacha Guinea Pig was included as a form of the Brazilian Guinea Pig (C. aperea), but it was not named or formally assessed as a subspecies.

1*. Clubbed bristles on the elytral intervals at least 3x as long as, placed much closer (digit 35’). 2*. Elytra broader, laterally short-ovally rounded, and broadly rounded towards the apex (couplet 34 vs. 34’, 35’). 3. Apex of the aedeagus (ventral view) broader; endophallus has a differently shaped structure (digit 35’).
The aedeagus of the new species is very similar to the aedeagus of Acalles almeriaensis Stüben, 2001, a widespread species from the south-west of Spain. But the new species from Morocco does not seem to be closely related to this species (couplet 34 vs. 24).

Montane Guinea Pig
Cavia tschudii
French: Cobaye de Tschudi / German: Tschudi-Meerschweinchen / Spanish: Cobaya de montana
Taxonomy. Cavia tschudii Fitzinger, 1867,
“in der Umgegend der Stadt Yca,” Ica, Peru.
Cavia tschudii is in need of revision relative to its subspecific taxonomy. A. Cabrera includes the subspecies umbrata as a synonym of festina and they have similar ranges. This is pending further review. Eight subspecies recognized.
Subspecies and Distribution.
C.t.tschudiiFitzinger,1867—IcaRegion,SPeru.
C.t.atahualpaeOsgood,1913—Inter-AndeanvalleysofNPeru.

C.t.stolidaThomas,1926—UtcubambaValleyofNWPeru.
C. t. umbrata Thomas, 1917 — Andes in the Junin Region in C Peru.
Descriptive notes. Head-body averages 220-270 mm, ear 20-35 mm, hindfoot 24-49 mm; weight 295-390 g. Greatest lengths of skull are 55-69 mm. The eight subspecies of the Montane Guinea Pig vary; for example, their dorsal color varies from cinnamon to reddish brown to gray-blackish, and ventral color is whitish to gray to buffy, occasionally ocherous. Nevertheless, there is no consistent overall pattern across all subspecies.
Habitat. Highly variable from high-elevation Andean grasslands or brushy habitats in northern Argentina, where cavies use distinct runways, to deserts and riparian habitats in Chile, ranging into humid pampas and areas of cultivation at elevations from sea level to 4500 m.
Food and Feeding. There is no specific information available for this species, but the Montane Guinea Pig is no doubt herbivorous.
Breeding. Gestation of the Montane Guinea Pig is 56-69 days. Mean litter size is 1-9 young (range 1-4). Individuals attain sexual maturity at c.2 months.
Activity patterns. There is no specific information available for this species, but it is reported as crepuscular to nocturnal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. There is no information available for this species.
Status and Conservation. Classified as Least Concern on The IUCN Red List. The Montane Guinea Pig is thought to face limited conservation threat because ofits very extensive distribution.
