description: Eustala Simon, 1895
Eustala Simon, 1895: 795.
Type species Epeira anastera Walckenaer, 1841 by original designation. Levi 1977: 114; Levi 2002.
Diagnosis. In contrast with other Araneidae genera, females of Eustala have an epigynal scape projecting anteriorly, instead of posteriorly. The scape cuticle is usually annulated but in some species it is smooth (e.g., E. perfida). There are three plates on the base of the epigynum, two lateral and one median, and its shape is a diagnostic character. Copulatory openings ventral, between the median and laterals plates. Males smaller than females and can be distinguished by the palp with an unusual white cone-shaped median apophysis, which hangs down the venter of the palp (Levi 1977). There is a balloon-like subterminal apophysis, which could be reduced in some species (e.g., E. minuscula; E. mourei). Embolus is hook-shaped and sclerotinized. Conductor morphology is diagnostic for the species. The most commun body shape is subtriangular (e.g., E. taquara), but some species are elongate (e.g., E. fuscovittata (Keyserling, 1864); E. sagana (Keyserling, 1893)), or spherical (e.g., E. conformans Chamberling, 1925). Abdomen with a dorsal color pattern (folium) resembling lichens or mosses, usually, green, greenish brown or gray. Some live Eustala are pink or red, resembling some lichens of very pure air (e.g. E. taquara, collected in the Moutains of Rio Grande do Sul) but this coloration is lost in alcohol. Due to this great variability it is very difficult to match males and females based only on coloration patterns.

Males of Eustala catarina n. sp. differ from others species of the genus by the sinuous tegulum (Figs 10, 11), by the thin terminal apophysis, and by the pointed projection in the subterminal apophysis (ventral view, Fig. 11). The epigynum of Eustala catarina n. sp. (Figs 13–17) resembles those of E. guarani n. sp. (Fig. 4) by the scape narrowed at the apex, but can be distinguished by the rounded and deep openings (ventral view, Fig. 13) and by the wide posterior part of the median plate (posterior view, Fig. 14), which is very narrow in E. guarani n. sp. (Fig. 5).
Description. Male (holotype, MCTP 35517): Carapace pale yellow with brown dots, high thoracic area, and deep thoracic furrow. Posterior median eyes and lateral eyes with black borders. Sternum pale yellow. Abdomen subtriangular with posterior hump. Dorsum light brown with well-delimited dark brown folium and with white pigment anteriorly (Fig. 12).

Adstrictubothrips

description: Adstrictubothrips gen. n.
Type species: Adstrictubothrips mirapterus gen. et sp. n.
Diagnosis. Abdominal segment X tubiform with a distinct constriction in the middle (Fig. 1). Antennae nine-segmented. Fore wings (Fig. 2) narrow, slightly bent forwards and broadened at base; first vein complete but bearing setae only in the basal two-thirds; second vein and cross-veins not developed; wing coupling hamulo-frenate. Fringe cilia distinctly thickened at base, but for the most part embedded into wing membrane, not on sockets; duplicated cilia present. Abdomen without sigmoidal wing retaining setae.
Adstrictubothrips shows modern tubuliferan character states in combination with plesiomorphic features like nine-segmented antennae and fore wings with a complete first vein. It therefore is allocated to Rohrthripidae. In contrast to most species of Rohrthrips the wing fringes in Adstrictubothrips are embedded for the main part into the wing membrane.A similar situation, however, has been also found in some species of Rohrthrips, eg R. patrickmuelleri or R. schizovenatus (Ulitzka 2019). Thus, this character state does not contradict the classification of the new genus within Rohrthripidae. Adstrictubothrips differs from Rohrthrips with regard to the narrow wings and the wing vein, which is furnished with setae only in the basal two-thirds of the wing length.
Etymology. The name of the new genus derives from the Latin words adstrictus, meaning “narrowed”, and tubus, meaning “tube”, as well as thrips, the usual term for a genus within Thysanoptera. The name refers to the constriction in the tube of the generic type specimen (Fig. 1).

Gemineurothrips

description: Gemineurothrips gen. n.
Type species: Gemineurothrips microcephalus gen. et sp. n.
Diagnosis. Abdominal segment X tubiform, without a ventral median suture, but with a crown of apical anal setae. Antennae (Fig. 4) nine-segmented. Maxillary stylets lowly retracted into the head and wide apart (Fig. 36). Fore wings (Fig. 7) becoming progressively larger in distal half; with two parallel wing veins; both furnished with stout setae; cross-veins not developed. Fringe cilia at fore wings mainly retracted into the wing membrane, at hind wings partly arising from sockets; duplicated cilia present around wing apex (Fig. 29). Fore wing clavus with paired setiform processes at tip and hind wing with basal recurved setae, wing coupling hamulo-frenate (Fig. 26). Abdomen without wing retaining setae. Fore tibiae with a strong distal spine. Anal setae much shorter than tube (Fig. 5).
Gemineurothrips shows character states of modern Tubulifera combined with plesiomorphic features like ninesegmented antennae and fore wings with two complete veins; it therefore is allocated to Rohrthripidae. Furthermore, wing coupling in Gemineurothrips is hamulo-frenate as it is in Rohrthrips (Fig. 25). Members of both genera have broadened wings; this feature distinguishes both from other Rohrthripidae. Gemineurothrips differs from Rohrthrips in having a complete second wing vein bearing stout setae (Fig. 7). Furthermore, the maxillary stylets are deeply retracted into the head capsule and close together in Rohrthrips (see Ulitzka 2018), whereas they are low in the head only and far apart in Gemineurothrips (Fig. 36). Finally, the pronotal chaetotaxy is different, with well-developed posteromarginal setae and a second pair of (much shorter) posteroangular setae in Gemineurothrips, whereas in Rohrthrips the posteromarginal setae are vestigial and only one pair of posteroangular setae is present.
Etymology. The name of the new genus derives from the Latin word geminus, meaning “twin”, the Greek word νεῦρΟν (neuron), meaning “vein”, and thrips, the usual term for a genus within Thysanoptera. It refers to the almost identical wing veins lying as “twins” in the fore wings of the generic type specimen (Fig. 7).

Paralleloalathrips

description: Paralleloalathrips gen. n.
Type species: Paralleloalathrips bivenatus gen. et sp. n.
Diagnosis. Abdominal segment X tubiform, without a median suture, but with a crown of apical anal setae. Antennae (Fig. 8) nine-segmented. Fore wings (Fig. 10) narrow and straight; fore and hind margin completely parallel between clavus and tip; with two complete longitudinal veins, both furnished with setae; cross-veins not developed. Fringe cilia arising from sockets; duplicated cilia present around margin of wing apex and along distal part of posterior margin. Fore wing clavus with paired setiform processes at tip and hind wing with a basal recurved seta, wing coupling hamulo-frenate. Abdomen without sigmoidal wing retaining setae; abdominal tergite II with a pair of distinct dorsolateral sutures (Fig. 11).
Paralleloalathrips shows typical character states of modern Tubulifera in combination with plesiomorphic features like nine-segmented antennae and fore wings with two complete veins. It therefore is allocated to Rohrthripidae. Furthermore, wing coupling in Paralleloalathrips is hamulo-frenate as it is in Rohrthrips and Gemineurothrips gen. n. The new genus differs from both of the latter based on the narrow shape of the wings (Fig. 10), and from Rohrthrips additionally by the presence of a complete second wing vein bearing setae (cf. Ulitzka 2018, 2019). Paralleloalathrips and Rohrthrips, nevertheless, are possibly more closely related, as both have a pair of sutures dorsolaterally at the second abdominal tergite (Fig. 11). From Adstrictubothrips gen. n. the new genus differs by the presence of two complete wing veins and by the tube, which is not narrowed in the middle (Fig. 8).
Etymology. The name of the new genus derives from the Greek word παράλληλΟς (parállēlos), meaning “parallel”, the Latin word ala, meaning “wing”, and thrips, the usual term for a genus within Thysanoptera. It refers to the parallel wings of the generic type specimen (Fig. 10).

Diagnosis. Abdominal segment X tubiform, without a median suture, but with a crown of long apical anal setae. Antennae nine-segmented. Maxillary stylets deeply retracted into the head capsule and close together (Fig. 37; Ulitzka 2018, 2019). Fore wings becoming progressively larger in distal half (Figs 12–13, 18); with a first vein bearing setae and, in some species, additionally with a second much shorter vein without setae (Fig. 18); cross-veins not developed; wing tips broadly rounded. Fringe cilia in most species arising from sockets. Duplicated cilia present around wing apex; running parallel to normal wing fringes. Fore wing clavus with paired setiform processes at tip and hind wing with basal recurved setae, wing coupling hamulo-frenate (Fig. 27). Abdomen without sigmoidal wing retaining setae; abdominal tergite II with a pair of distinct dorsolateral sutures (Fig. 30). The latter feature is rarely found in Tubulifera and has not been documented so far in Rohrthrips (see discussion below); it is also present in Paralleloalathrips bivenatus gen. et sp. n.

Smartphone-based quartz crystal microbalance for detection of Salmonella Typhimurium
Creators: name: Min, Hyun Jung

subject: Agricultural biotechnology diagnostics (incl. biosensors)

description: Quartz crystal microbalances (QCM) have been demonstrated as highly sensitive technologies for biosensing applications over the past few decades, making them valuable tools for detecting foodborne pathogens and mycotoxins in food safety. In recent years, biosensing trends have emphasized portability and simplicity, while also maintaining high sensitivity, thanks to advancements in measurement technology. Smartphone-based biosensors have especially garnered attention from researchers in various fields. In this study, a mass-based QCM and the potential for a smartphone-based QCM system for the detection of Salmonella Typhimurium are explored. To establish a fundamental understanding of a quartz crystal’s behavior, a theoretical framework was initially examined by comparing frequency shifts in response to changes in viscosity. The Butterworth Van-Dyke model of the quartz crystal and the experiments showed an average frequency shift difference of 3.7 %. In contrast, the variance between the Kanazawa equation and the experimental results was 4.4 %. Second, a benchtop QCM biosensor system equipped with a peristaltic pump was employed as a reference method for Salmonella Typhimurium detection. Polyclonal antibodies specific to Salmonella were immobilized on a 5 MHz quartz crystal using a self-assembled method, allowing for Salmonella detection on the crystal surface. Specificity tests demonstrated minimal cross-reactivity with non-Salmonella strains such as Escherichia coli O157, Listeria monocytogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus. Additionally, gold nanoparticles were used for mass enhancement to amplify the frequency signal via a biotin-avidin reaction, resulting in a signal improvement. The benchtop system achieved a detection limit ranging from 103-105CFU/mL. Lastly, a smartphone-based QCM device, integrated with a fluorescence imaging system, was developed for Salmonella Typhimurium detection. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled antibodies were employed as secondary antibodies to amplify the signal and visualize the cells. The frequency shifts after introducing fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled antibodies indicated the limit of detection of 103-104 CFU/mL. Similarly, specificity tests suggested no or low cross-reactivity with non-Salmonella strains such as E. coli O157, L. monocytogenes, and S. aureus. Food tests showed the real-world potential for detecting Salmonella Typhimurium. Reusability tests conducted on the single quartz crystal, using regeneration buffers, demonstrated its capability to be reused three times.

Sesquithrips

description: Sesquithrips gen. n.
Type species: Sesquithrips rostratus gen. et sp. n.
Diagnosis. Abdominal segment X tubiform. Antennae nine-segmented, with segments VIII and IX broadly joined. Fore wings broadened in basal half, distally with parallel margins and with broadly rounded tip; first vein complete, bearing setae; second vein present but ending approximately in the middle of the wing with a distinct terminal seta (Fig. 22). Fore wings with fringe cilia embedded into wing membrane; duplicated cilia present; wing coupling not assessable. Hind wings distally with posterior margin of wing membrane serrate into small teeth, each carrying a fringe cilium at tip attached on a tiny socket (Fig. 23). Abdomen without sigmoidal wing retaining setae.
Sesquithrips shows modern tubuliferan character states in combination with plesiomorphic features like ninesegmented antennae and fore wings with longitudinal veins. It therefore is allocated to Rohrthripidae. Similar as mentioned for Adstrictubothrips gen. n., the fringes in Sesquithrips gen. n. are embedded for the most part into the wing membrane (Fig. 22). Only at the serrate posterior margin of the hind wings are they clearly attached on tiny sockets (Fig. 23). Sesquithrips gen. n. differs from Rohrthrips and Gemineurothrips gen. n. with regard to the narrow shape of the wings. Furthermore, the dorsolateral sutures found in members of Rohrthrips and Paralleloalathrips gen. n. at abdominal segment II (see below) are not developed in this new genus. Moreover, Sesquithrips gen. n. is easily distinguished from the latter genus and from Adstrictubothrips gen. n. by the second wing vein, which ends in the middle of the fore wing with a stout terminal seta (Fig. 22).
Etymology. The name of the new genus derives from the Latin prefix sesqui, meaning “one and a half”, and thrips, the usual term for a genus within Thysanoptera. It refers to the wing venation with a complete first vein and a second vein extending only half the length of the fore wing (Fig. 22).

Remarks: This is the second Moluccan species of Baeocera remaining unnamed, in absence of at least one male specimen (see “ Baeocera sp. A ” in Löbl, 2015a). It is similar to the Papuan B. curta Löbl, 2002, differs by the less arcuate suture of the metanepisterna and the ventrite I lacking basal striae. Thus, it may be an undescribed species. Baeocera curta has a complex aedeagus providing reliable specific characters which are quite unlike those of members of the Baeocera lenta group and of B. agostii. The specimen has slightly prominent apical inner apical angles of the elytra, a character noted for the first time in Baeocera. It may be sexual, as it is in some species of Scaphisoma Leach.

description: Scaphisoma Leach, 1815
Remarks: This species-rich genus is nearly worldwidely distributed. At present, 18 species are known from the Moluccas (Löbl, 2015a), all but S. luteomaculatum Pic, 1915 and S. coarctatum Löbl, 2003 possibly endemic. The studied material comprises two additional species, one known previously from Queensland, and a new one.

Scaphobaeocera schouteni Löbl, 1980: 223.
Material examined: MHNG; 1 male; MOLUK: Tanimbar, Kai Besar, G. Dab, 400 m, 5.IX.1981, D. Agosti.
Remarks: The species was based on a single specimen collected at Limbin, New Ireland, and remained unrecorded since. The shape of its flagellum is diagnostic (see Löbl, 1980: fig. 3).
Habitat: Secondary forests on limestone, very humid soil and leaf litter.
Distribution: Papua New Guinea: New Ireland; Indonesia: Moluccas, Kai Besar Island.

Scaphobaeocera undefined-1

description: Scaphobaeocera sp. 1
Material examined: MHNG; 1 male; MALUK: Aru Isl., Wokam, 5 km E Mt. Sungai, 22.8.1981, D. Agosti.
Remarks: This specimen possesses aedeagal characters similar to those of S. notata Löbl, 2017, from Papua New Guinea, and S. lombokensis Löbl, 2015. It differs from S. notata quite conspicuously by the uniformly light brown elytra, and from S. lombokensis by the parameres nearly evenly broad in lateral view and the ventrally bent tip of the median lobe. More material is needed to assess the variability of these characters.
Habitat: Secondary/primary forest on limestone, sea level, rather dry leaf litter; understory Pandanus palms.
Distribution: Indonesia: Moluccas, Aru Island.
