(Fig. 15)
Holotype. ZSI P163 collected 1 January 1922 in “ Canton, China ” by A.W.L. Oliver, originally labeled “ Plumatella fruticosa ”.
Diagnosis. The colony appears as a tangle of free branches; dorsal margin of the floatoblast slightly curled inwards.
Etymology. The specific epithet is from the Latin adjective crispus, meaning curled or curly, in reference to the upturned dorsal margin of the floatoblast.
Description. Colony appearing as a tangle of branching tubules extending from the substratum; floatoblasts long and narrow (Table 1), floatoblast dorsal fenestra relatively small, with length and width less than half of corresponding outer dimensions of the floatoblast; tubercles on the dorsal fenestra low and rounded, with little space between them, dorsal valve margins distinctively scalloped or lightly curled; floatoblast ventral fenestra broadly oval, nearly twice as wide as the dorsal fenestra, with low, rounded tubercles that fade towards the center.
Distribution. The species is known only from its type locality in China.
Remarks. The holotype colony is attached in places to a small piece of reed. Sessoblasts are absent. The marginal curling of the floatoblast is best seen with scanning microscopy, but is nevertheless detectable when the isolated valve is viewed with a compound microscope. The initial designation of this species as Plumatella fruticosa is understandable, since colonies of both species have free branches, the floatoblasts are long and narrow, and the dorsal fenestrae are relatively small. An important difference is one of scale: with P. fruticosa the floatoblast length is over 500 µm (Fig. 20b), while in P. crispa n. sp. it is less than 400 µm.

description: The subgenus Centris (Hemisiella) Moure, 1945
The subgenus Centris (Hemisiella) Moure, 1945 is a lineage that comprises 18 species widely distributed in the New World, ranging from southern United States (Pemberton & Liu, 2008) to Argentina, including some Caribbean islands (Moure et al., 2007). As it occurs with other lineages of Centris, the highest species diversity of this subgenus is in tropical areas of South America, where up to 13 of the known species can be found (Moure et al., 2007).
The species of C. (Hemisiella) are morphologically homogeneous and can be recognized by their pattern of facial coloration in both sexes. Although some authors have considered C. (Hemisiella) as a junior synonym of C. (Heterocentris) Cockerell, 1899 (Griswold et al., 2006; Michener, 2007; Gonzalez et al., 2012), the species of this subgenus form a distinct monophyletic group which is closely related to the subgenera C. (Heterocentris) and C. (Trachina) Klug, 1807, with which it shares several morphological synapomorphies in the male (Vivallo & Melo in preparation). Thus, we recognized C. (Hemisiella) as a valid subgenus.
The males of C. (Hemisiella) are characterized by a spine-shaped projection on the hind trochanter, and a broad yellow transverse spot on the clypeus (covering the clypeus entirely in C. nigriventris Burmeister, 1876). Females have an elliptical primary basitibial plate with the secondary plate covered with dense, short pubescence, and a dark brown to black clypeus with two very large, oblique yellow patches (which may be joined medially in C.
transversa Pérez, 1905, as well as in some specimens of C. merrillae and C. vittata Lepeletier, 1841). Species of C. (Hemisiella) nest in pre-existing cavities in wood as in the subgenera C. (Heterocentris) and C. (Xanthemisia) Moure,1945 (Silveira et al., 2002). However, some species, such as C. transversa (Batra & Schuster, 1977), and probably others, may also nest in the ground (Vivallo, unpublished data).
According to Smith-Pardo (2003) the species of C. (Hemisiella) present in Colombia are C. dichrootricha, C. transversa and C. vittata. Moure et al. (2007) added C. facialis Mocsáry, 1899 and C. nitida Smith, 1874, while Gonzalez et al. (2012) added C. trigonoides, thereby totaling six species. The study of the material housed in the main Colombian entomological collections (listed above) resulted in the identification of the following seven species of Centris (Hemisiella) such as C. nebulosa new species: C. dichrootricha, C. facialis, C. merrillae, C. tarsata, C. trigonoides and C. vittata.

description: Afrindella Annandale in Annandale & Kemp, 1912
The genus Afrindella was erected by Annandale in Annandale & Kemp (1912) as a subgenus to Plumatella. It is based on the idea that in certain species, when the polypide is retracted, a pair of slightly stiffened regions of the tentacle sheath come together like valves to form a flat barrier closing off the orifice. As the type species for Afrindella Annandale designated Plumatella tanganyikae, by which he probably meant Plumatella bombayensis. I believe this because at that time the ZSI had four specimens of P. bombayensis, all labeled as P. tanganyikae, and Annandale considered the two species indistinguishable (Annandale & Kemp 1912). Also included in the Afrindella subgenus were P. philippinensis Kraepelin, 1887, P. testudinicola, and later P. persica, now recognized as P. casmiana.
Borg (1936) objected to the subgenus Afrindella because it was based on just a single feature, the closure of the orifice. However, Marcus (1942) elevated Afrindella to the level of a full genus and expanded the definition to include a strong and rigid chitinous ectocyst, tubules lying close to the substrate with little incrustation, and the lack of upright branches. Marcus made it clear that the genus did not imply any phylogenetic significance but was simply a way of grouping species with similar features. The concept of Afrindella was fully endorsed by Wiebach (1970, 1974, 1975).
However, the features Marcus ascribed to Afrindella are variable. In P. bombayensis and P. casmiana the ectocyst can be rigid, dark and clear, but it can also be thin, fragile and heavily incrusted. In the only known specimens of P. tanganyikae and P. testudinicola the ectocyst is not even very strong or chitinous. The mechanism by which the orifice is closed has not been studied in detail but appears to be a simple consequence of heavy sclerotization of the ectocyst. While I recognize the appeal of breaking up the large genus Plumatella, it seems unwise to establish a genus on features that are so inconsistent.

description: Australella Annandale, 1910
This genus was proposed in a footnote to include “zooecia recumbent, aggregated into small linear groups, which are connected with each other by stolon-like lobes and embedded in a structureless gelatinous mass. (Annandale 1910). The designated type species was Lophopus lendenfeldi from Australia (Ridley 1886), for which the published description lacked significant detail. Annandale (1915a) later described the typical colony of Australella as “a solid encrusting body closely compacted and agglutinated together by synocial jelly, but increasing in bulk mainly in one plane and without vertical branches.”
In addition to Australella lendenfeldi the genus Australella was applied to A. jheringi (Meissner, 1893) and A. indica Annandale, 1915. However, the Australella concept never acquired much traction. Annandale himself seemed tentative about the genus, since no examples were known from India and there was never an opportunity to examine living material. Finally, after seeing a preserved specimen of Australella lendenfeldi, Annandale ceded the name to Jullien’s (1885) Hyalinella, in which colonies were more clearly dendritic (Annandale 1919). Australella is no longer considered valid.

Phenol hydrodeoxygenation over ru(0001), effect of oxygen coverage on direct deoxygenation and water splitting
Creators: name: Ejaz, Haider
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2024

description: Lignin derived bio-oil produced through pyrolytic processes contains high levels of oxygenated fractions, necessitating treatment to achieve high-quality fuel. This treatment typically involves hydrotreatment over transition metal catalysts such as Pt, Pd, and Ru. Ruthenium has high oxophilicity, which enhances deoxygenation and influences product selectivity. Phenolics, a significant fraction of bio-oil, pose complex reaction mechanisms due to varied carbon numbers and functional groups. Hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of phenolics over Ru catalysts shows varied product selectivity based on controlling factors, including solvent effects, catalyst supports, dispersion, and the incorporation of metallic and non-metallic components. Phenol serves as a model compound for studying C-O bond cleavage mechanisms. Using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we investigate the activation energy barriers involved in deoxygenation and hydrogenation reactions over Ru(0001) surface.Three pathways including direct deoxygenation, tautomerization, and ring hydrogenation are analyzed to determine the most energetically favorable route for converting phenol to hydrocarbons and oxygenates, including benzene, cyclohexene, cyclohexane, cyclohexanone, and cyclohexanol. Tautomerization to cyclohexanone shows the lowest overall barrier, with microkinetic modeling predicting benzene formation via direct deoxygenation as the dominant pathway, with cyclohexanone as a secondary product. A high oxygen coverage is also predicted for the phenol, water and hydrogen system with bare surface energetics, limiting active site availability and phenol consumption.Since the surface oxygen is removed as water, the equilibrium oxygen coverage over the Ru(0001) surface under reducing environments is investigated using water as an oxygen source. Using a large 4×4 slab model, the surface interactions and reaction energetics indicate that Ru can support up to 1/4 monolayer (ML) of oxygen, with an equilibrium coverage of ~0.2 ML at 500 °C. Stronger surface interactions beyond this coverage create a new regime of adsorption and reaction energetics. A kinetic Monte-Carlo model for water dissociation also predicts a limiting oxygen coverage of 1/4 ML.Microkinetic models for phenol HDO based on variable oxygen coverage energetics, focusing on the direct deoxygenation pathway, show increasing production up to 3/16 ML beyond which a sharp decline is observed due to limiting reactant adsorption and reaction kinetics. Additionally, hydroxyl-mediated pathways offer a low barrier pathway for phenoxy removal from the surface, limiting benzene production. This study uses computational approaches to understand the energetic changes induced by spectator oxygen atoms, focusing on both adsorption characteristics as well as reaction barriers.

Rumarcanella

description: Rumarcanella Hirose & Mawatari, 2011
The genus Rumarcanella is the first ever to be based primarily on a single feature of the statoblast: the presence of hypertubercles. A hypertubercle may be defined as a small tubercle that sits atop a larger tubercle, generally seen on the floatoblast fenestra, but occasionally also found on the sessoblast frontal valve. Other characteristics of the genus include a colony “ entirely adherent, composed of narrow, branching tubes, weakly chitinized; ectocyst thin, transparent, with almost no encrustation” (Hirose & Mawatari 2011b).
Hypertubercles were first noticed in R. vorstmani (Toriumi, 1952) and R. minuta (Toriumi, 1941), now synonymized under R. himalayana. The list was later expanded to include two new species, R. gusuku Hirose & Mawatari, 2011b and R. yanbaruensis Hirose & Mawatari, 2011b.
This genus is considered problematic due to the likelihood that hypertubercles may not be a reliable unifying feature. For example, the floatoblasts of Plumatella raoi also have hypertubercles, but the colony features free branches, not the “entirely adherent branches specified in the genus description. Therefore, we must either broaden the genus definition, or else recognize that hypertubercles do not occur exclusively in this genus. In fact, they may commonly occur in any species where the statoblast tubercles are especially prominent.
Hirose & Mawatari (2011b) provided genetic evidence that four Rumarcanella species with hypertubercles can be grouped in a single clade within a field that includes common plumatellids and fredericellids. This is useful information. However, it is possible that other species, with similar features but lacking statoblast hypertubercles, may also fall within the clade. Here again molecular studies could prove very useful.
In time the definition of genus Rumarcanella may be modified in ways that place less reliance on hypertubercles. Until then it should remain as an interesting concept, but one that allows certain species with hypertubercles not to be included.

Remarks. The family Calocarididae was revived and redefined by Kensley (1989), although his hypothetical scheme for derivation of the family suggested that the genera assigned to Calocarididae form a clade but is subordinated within Axiidae. Nevertheless, subsequent authors have continued to recognize Calocarididae as a distinct family (e.g., Poore 1994, 2008; Komai 2000; Sakai & Ohta 2005; De Grave et al. 2009), because the morphological evidence strongly suggests that genera assigned to the family clearly form a monophyletic group. Based on molecular data, Tsang et al. (2008) analysed relationships between two calocaridid species (Calastacus crosnieri and Paracalocaris sagamiensis) and three axiids, finding the two calocaridids to sister taxa and the axiids to form a paraphyletic grade. Robles et al. (2009) showed that the calocaridid, Calocaris caribbaeus, is nested among seven species of Axiidae, also suggesting the paraphyly of Axiidae. Sakai & Ohta (2005) separated Eiconaxius in its own family, Eiconaxiidae, because the genus is characterized by rounded dactyli of the third to fifth pereopods, representing a unique feature for the genus. However, Poore & Collins (2009) showed that this characteristic is also seen, in part, in the axiid Platyaxius Sakai, 1994. They finally synonymized Calocarididae and Eiconaxiidae with Axiidae.

Stolella

description: Stolella Annandale, 1909
This group includes species “with upright zooecia joined together by an adherent pseudostolon in a linear series, the pseudostolon consisting of a prolongation in one direction of the base of one of the zooecia; no gelatinous investment present” (Annandale 1909).
The genus was erected to accommodate a new species, Stolella indica, described more fully in this paper. Additional sightings of S. indica were reported in North America by Rogick (1943) and in central Africa by Wiebach (1964), neither of them resembling Annandale’s holotype. In South America Ernst and Eveline Marcus together described a total of six plumatellid species, placing five of them in the genus Stolella (Marcus 1941, 1942; DuBoisReymond Marcus 1953).
It is worth noting that nearly all of the Stolella species, including S. indica, were reported to be growing on filiform substrata such as duckweed roots, filamentous algae, or the narrow stems and leaves of submerged macrophytes. Under such conditions I have found it not unusual for plumatellid zooids to become elongated. Even on broad substrata it is possible to encounter elongated and tapered zooids among species in which this growth form is atypical (Fig. 11). Zooid length is so inconsistent that in his African collection of Stolella indica Wiebach specifically set aside and labeled small subsamples exhibiting elongate zooids, because all other zooids in the specimen appeared to lack this feature (Wood 2020).
The same variability is seen in Stolella material from Ernst and Eveline Marcus deposited at the NHMUK. While the stolon-like growth is certainly striking, it is often not representative of the entire colony. I am therefore inclined to regard this feature as an interesting phenomenon, possibly imposed by environmental conditions, but not a reliable foundation for an entire genus. I suggest that Annandale’s Stolella be retired and replaced with Plumatella.
