Fig. 21
Material. HUMZ 194463 (1, 91.9), st. 36, 8°40.0'S, 112°29.2'E – 8°40.3'S, 112°27.9'E, off Java, 975–977 m, 20 May 2005. Provisionally identified specimen: HUMZ 194528 (1, 24.2, esca damaged), st. 69, 2°49.4'S, 95°7.0'E – 2°48.6'S, 95°7.4'E, off Sumatra, 400–418 m, 14 Jun. 2005.
Description. Dorsal-fin rays 6; pectoral-fin rays 17; anal-fin rays 5; caudal-fin rays 9. Vomerine teeth 6 (3, 3), upper jaw teeth 34, lower jaw teeth 30. Head length 48.7% SL; head depth 43.9; head width 29.5; illicial length 16.4; upper jaw length 34.3; lower jaw length 46.2.
Body short, globular, slightly compressed, profile rounded in lateral view. No spines on head or on other parts of body associated with cephalic skeleton. Sphenotic with rounded dorsally directed projection. Broad deep groove in inter-frontal space. Mouth large, cleft slightly oblique.
Esca with single simple elongate anterior appendage, pigmented internally except for distal tip, for about onethird of the escal length; pair of blunt anterolateral appendages closely attached to anterior appendage; compressed, posterior appendage, each side connected to lateral appendages to form a concave surface between appendages, with a flap-like crest. Subcutaneous internally pigmented appendage emerging from base of esca and descending along anterior margin of illicial bone.
Body uniformly deep brown to black; illicium pale, covered by semi-transparent skin, internal structure visible externally.
Remarks. The escal morphology of our specimen does not match that of any currently recognized species. The elongate anterior appendage resembles that of C. melanorhabdus Regan & Trewavas, 1932, but the illicium is shorter than all congeners (16.4% vs. 20.1–47.4% SL in Pietsch, 2009). According to Pietsch (1975), species of Chaenophryne usually have well developed escal appendages and filaments, but these are poorly developed in our specimens, the anterolateral appendages are especially strongly reduced and lack of filaments in all appendages. More specimens may prove the species to be undescribed.

Specimens. 1 adult ♀, No. 10 (FKCP), 1 adult ♂, No. 11 (FKCP), Kashan city, 11 August 2000; 1 adult ♀, No. 22, Main Abad, 11 August 2000; leg. V. Vignoli & P. Crucitti.
Comments. Scorpions of medium size (total length: No. 10, 56 mm; 11, 46 mm; 22, 51 mm). The type locality of this species (“Astracan”, Iran) is not clear (Fet & Lowe, 2000). Apart from the types, there are only specimens identified by Whittick as Buthus gabrielis Werner, 1929, a junior synonym of M. vesiculatus. Fet & Lowe (2000: 181) listed specimens from Teheran and Comments. Androctonus amoreuxi baluchicus (Pocock, 1900) listed for the region by Kovarík (1997: 39) was an immature specimen that subsequently turned out to be an atypically colored Androctonus crassicauda. Deghani et al. (1998) listed for the region also Orthochirus scrobiculosus (Grube, 1873). This is probably a case of mistaken identity as well, as the record appears to concern a hitherto undescribed species of Orthochirus. The second author (FK) is revising this genus and his work indicates several new species from Iran.
*This species is listed under the monotypic genus Olivierus Farzanpay, 1987 by Fet & Lowe (2000); however, Gantenbein et al. (in press) synonymized Olivierus with Mesobuthus Vachon, and restored O. caucasicus in Mesobuthus as traditionally accepted (Vachon, 1966; Habibi, 1971; Fet, 1984, 1989, 1994).
Isfahan (Esfahan). Kashan is located between these two towns.
These specimens were compared by one of us (FK) with the paratype (No. 1893.10.29.6) of Mesobuthus vesiculatus from the Natural History Museum, London. The species is well characterized by its inflated telson and a very short aculeus.

Cardiastethus laeviusculus Poppius, 1915: 7. Syntypes: Taiwan, Daitotei (1 ex., sex unknown, MZHF) and Anping (1 ♀, SDEI).
Cardiastethus laeviusculus: Esaki (1926: 170) (listed, distribution), Hiura (1958: 39) (diagnostic characters), Hiura (1960: 43) (listed), Ford (1979: 51, 87) (listed), Zheng & Bu (1990: 27) (listed, distribution), Péricart (1996: 130) (catalog, distribution), Bu & Zheng (2001: 52, 93, 95, 229) (in key, redescription, distribution).
Type material examined. Lectotype (present designation): ♀, ‘VII, Anping \ Formosa \ H. Sauter V 1912 ’ [printed, plus ‘VII’ by handwritten at left anterior angle], ‘ Cardiastethus \ laeviusculus \ n. sp.’ [handwritten], ‘Syntypus’ [red square], ‘TYPUS’ [light red square]; pinned, segments II–IV of left antenna lacking; deposited in SDEI (Figs. 1–3).
Remarks. Almost no new information on this species has been published since the original description; most subsequent publications that mentioned it are catalogs and lists based on the original description. Péricart (1996) indicated that C. laeviusculus was likely a member of the genus Amphiareus Distant, 1904 based on an examination of the syntype deposited in MZHF. An examination of digital images of the syntype deposited in SDEI in course of this study confirmed that C. laeviusculus is a new subjective synonym of Amphiareus constrictus (Stål, 1860). The following diagnostic characters of C. laeviusculus all coincide with those of A. constrictus: dorsum shiny, overall yellowish brown with apical part of endocorium darkened, sparsely covered with long setae; antennal segment II longer than head width across eyes; and hemelytra slightly constricted basally. Although the syntype in MZHF could not be examined, the syntype deposited in the SDEI, matching the original description and preserved in good condition for identification, is here selected as lectotype.
Current status. New subjective synonym of Amphiareus constricuts (Stål, 1860).

Comments. Five juvenile specimens (No. 19 total length: 26 mm; No. 20 total length: 22 mm; No. 17 total length: 27 mm) where found. Morphology characters as presence of bristlecombs on legs (the specimen 23 from Main Abad lacks bristlecombs), two ventral denticles on cheliceral fixed finger, and 15 slightly oblique rows on pedipalp chela fingers, demonstrate that we have collected Polisius persicus Fet et al., 2001. This psammophilous scorpion was collected in different sites; in Aziz Abad and Main Abad, they where found under stones in sandy areas, while another specimen was collected in the suburbs of Kashan city active on hard soil near ploughed fields.
The species was described from Baluchistan Province (SE Iran), and this new locality allows to suggest a larger geographical distribution of this genus in sandy areas of central Iran (Kavir and Lut Deserts).

Figs. 1–4
Description. Male. Length of each forewing 4.0 mm. General color, in alcohol, pale yellow; head and dorsum of thorax with golden setae, antennae stramineous, wings light brown with light yellow setae, legs stramineous with setae dark brown. Male genitalia. Sternum IX short, trapezoidal, anterior margin slightly excavated, and wide posteriorly (Fig. 3). Tergum X membranous, divided into 2 lobes tapering to apex, with fine setae on all surfaces (Fig. 2). Preanal appendages with dorsolateral lobes apparently absent (Figs. 1, 2); and with ventromesal lobes simple, curved inward, and each bearing stout dark spine apically (Figs. 1, 2). Inferior appendages elongate (longer than tergum X), longitudinally concave along internal face, bearing fine setae on all surfaces and each with 2 spine-like setae basally; base broad, abruptly narrowed apex curved inward with internal margin excavated; basodorsal lobe short, tooth-like, partially fused with main body of inferior appendage, bearing 4 spine-like setae in internal margin, apical margin dark and strongly sclerotized (Figs. 1, 3). Phallus tubular, without distinct phallicata sclerite or spines internally, but bearing internal rows of protuberances with sclerotized apices (Fig. 4).
Remarks. Cernotina odonta sp. nov. is a very distinctive species and perhaps it is related to C. compressa Flint, 1971, as indicated by the short basodorsal lobe broadly fused with the main body of each inferior appendage. The new species differs from C. compressa and other species of the genus by the inferior appendages each being longitudinally concave along its internal face with a notch on the internal apex and each having its basodorsal lobe short, tooth-like, largely fused with the appendage and with spine-like mesal setae.
Holotype male: BRAZIL: Amazonas: Manaus, tributary to Igarapé do Lobisomem, basin of Rio Cuieiras, 2°33'46.4''S, 60°19'03.4''W, 22.viii.2004, J.L. Nessimian & L. Fidelis, light trap (INPA).
Etymology. From the Greek odonta (“tooth”) in allusion to the shape of the basodorsal lobe of each inferior appendage.

Type material examined. Cardiastethus longicep s. Holotype: ♀, ‘ Taihorin \ Formosa \ H. Sauter V 1911 ’ [printed, plus ‘VII’ by handwritten at right anterior part], ‘ Cardiastethus \ longiceps \ n. sp.’ [handwritten], ‘ ♀ ’, ‘ Poppius det.’, ‘ Holotypus’ [red square], ‘TYPUS’ [light red square]; mounted on card, segments III–IV lacking; deposited in SDEI (Figs. 4–6).
Lippomanus brevicornis. Holotype: ♂, ‘[Ryukyus] \ Uehara \ Iriomote Is. \ Okinawa Pref. \ 26. iii. 2002 L. T. \ K. Yamada leg. ’, ‘ Holotype ♂ \ Lippomanus brevicornis \ Yamada et Hirowatari, 2004’ [pink squre], ‘OPU-IN-HE \ 2009III 0003’ [with black frame]; mounted on triangle card, clavus of left hemelytron removed (glued on same card as a specimen), and abdominal segments VI–IX removed and preserved on slide (glass slide No. OPU-KY077); deposited in OMU.
Remarks. As for the previous species, no new information on the taxonomy and morphology of this species has been published since the original description. Based on the examination of superior digital images of the holotype deposited in SDEI brought me to two conclusions. Firstly, C. longiceps should be transferred to the genus Lippomanus Distant, 1904 based on the following generic level diagnostic characters: antennal segment I not reaching apex of head; distinct setigerous punctures present on posterior half of pronotum, scutellum, and clavus; and lateral margins of hemelytra concavely sinuate on basal halves. Secondly, Lippomanus brevicornis Yamada & Hirowatari, 2004 is confirmed to be a new subjective synonym of C. longiceps based on the general coloration (body overall yellowish brown, with widely darkened pronotal posterior angles and widely darkened cuneus) and length of antennal segment II (much shorter than head width across eyes).
Current status. Lippomanus longiceps (Poppius, 1915), new combination.

Phallus (Fig. 8) tubular, internally with 2 short dark spines, and phallicata sclerite with 2 parallel branches in dorsal view.
Remarks. Cernotina lobisomem sp. nov. seems to be a member of the C. cygnea group Flint, 1971, which includes C. antonina Holzenthal & Almeida, 2003; C. cygnea Flint, 1971; C. decumbens Flint, 1971; and C. trispina Flint, 1971. The new species has the dorsal branch of the ventromesal lobe of each preanal appendage similar to that of C. antonina, but C. lobisomem is easily distinguished from C. antonina by the long fingerlike lobes of tergum X; by the dorsal branch of the ventromesal lobe of each preanal appendage with mesal spines displaced more basally; and by the characteristic inferior appendage, each with a long basodorsal lobe bearing long spine-like setae and with a robust apicomesal lobe.
Holotype male: BRAZIL: Amazonas: Manaus, tributary to Igarapé do Lobisomem, basin of Rio Cuieiras, 2°33'46.4''S, 60°19'03.4''W, 22.viii.2004, J.L. Nessimian & L. Fidelis, light trap (INPA).
Paratypes: 4 males, same date and locality of holotype (INPA); 5 males, same date and locality of holotype (DZRJ).
Etymology. The new species epithet is a noun (with unchanging termination) in apposition to the genus name, alluding to the stream where the specimens were collected.

Remarks. Ilyodromus amplicolis De Deckker, 1981 was described from a granite rock pool on top of Boyagin Rock, between Brookton and Pingelly, Western Australia, Australia (De Deckker 1981). The species was then redescribed in Shearn et al. (in press) to enable more detailed comparisons with other species that were more recently described using a larger set of characters (Shearn et al. 2014; Smith et al. 2011). The species is characterised as being large (around 2000 µm in length), with a broad calcified inner lamella posteriorly and anteriorly in both valves, without lists or a selvage, very reduced natatory setae on the A2, and the CR with Sp claw-like but with serration on all sides, and bent at 2/3 from the base (De Deckker 1981). The following three species are allocated to the Ilyodromus amplicolis group based on these shared features, and their genetic similarity.

General distribution. Recorded only from Panama. PANAMA: CANAL ZONE (Coco Solo Hospital); LA CA- NARCA; FT. CLAYTON; CHIRIQUI (Rovira); CHEPO (Altos de Maje); LAS CUMBRES; COLON (Sta. Rita Ridge) (O’Donnell 2006).
Discussion. Bubaces heissi, is included in the “ castaneus ” group by virtue of having the total length of the body longer than 5.00 mm.
This species is recognized by having the dorsal surfaces of pronotum and clavi clothed with long erect hairs, each corium with a prominent circular yellow to creamy yellow subapical spot, and the male metathoracic scent glands each with the ostiolar peritreme conspicuously broad, strongly raised above pleural surface, tightly recurved posteriorly, resembling a coiled back upon itself. In B. castaneus, the surfaces of pronotum, clavi and coria are glabrous, each corium lacks a circular yellow to creamy yellow subapical spot, and the male metathoracic scent glands each have the ostiolar peritreme raised, not strongly recurved posteriorly, but with a gentle, very wide curvature that resembles a “question mark”.

Central American Silky Anteater
Cyclopes dorsalis
French: Myrmidon du Costa Rica / German: Mittelamerika-Zwergameisenbar / Spanish: Oso hormiguero sedoso de Centroamérica
Taxonomy. Cyclothurus dorsalis Gray, 1865,
“Costa Rica.”
According to F. R. Miranda and colleagues in 2017, subspecies eva, mexicanus, and dor- salis are synonyms of C. dorsalis. Skull and pelage color of mexicanus and eva also conform well to characteristics of C. dorsalis, but since the molecular sample of C. dor salis consisted of a single individual from “Esmeraldas” in the forests of the Pacific coast of Ecuador, the present arrangement must be considered provisional until additional data permit complete analysis. Populations ofsilky anteaters from west of the Andes deserve further scrutiny to clarify their taxonomic status. Because C. dorsalis has recently been elevated from subspecies to species and synonymized with eva and mexicanus, it is important to clarify its current distribution. Monotypic.
Distribution. S Mexico to the inter-Andean valleys of Colombia and along the Pacific coast of Colombia and Ecuador.
Descriptive notes. Head—body ¢.185-215 mm, tail 170-225 mm; weight 155-275 g. Discrete skull characteristics are evident on the Central American Silky Anteater. Fronto-nasal region is not depressed, giving a straight profile. External aperture of ear is directed anteriorly. Naso-maxillary sutures diverge proximally, with very short fronto-maxillary
suture. Fronto-parietal suture has triangular or trapezoidal shape, and pterygoid bone does not overlap tympanic bulla. Color of the Central American Silky Anteater is quite different from other species: fur on body, limbs, and tail is very deeply yellow, dorsal stripe 1s irregular but distinctive, and ventralstripe is weakly marked or absent.
Habitat. Mangrove swamps and tropical rainforests.
Food and Feeding. No information.
Breeding. Gestation of the Central American Silky Anteater lasts 120-150 days.
Activity patterns. The Central American Silky Anteater is nocturnal and arboreal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. At Barro Colorado Island, the home range of an adult male Central American Silky Anteater was 11 ha, and average home range of four adult females was 2-9 ha.
Status and Conservation. Not assessed on The IUCN Red List. It is necessary to evaluate the conservation status of the Central American Silky Anteater because its distribution increased substantially with recent taxonomic revisions.

Comportment, Contention, and Conflict: Identity and Role Dynamics Facing Social Work Practitioners in Cross-Cultural and Australian Practice Contexts
Creators: name: Ciotti, Tania
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2025

description: This thesis explores the history of social work in Australia, with a focus on the lived experiences of Bi-Cultural and Bi-Lingual Social Work practitioners. It examines how the social workers' own sense of identity and experience of using their own cultural knowledge and language skills impacts on a personal and professional level, and the challenges and rewards that this presents. The potential benefits to society includes understanding the experiences of social workers using their own bi-cultural and bi-lingual skills and knowledge as professionals across a range of practice areas in the Australian context. It informs professional Social Work practice standards, codes of ethics and education for future social work practitioners and the profession more broadly.

Rio Negro Silky Anteater
Cyclopes ida
French: Myrmidon du Rio Negro / German: Rio-Negro-Zwergameisenbar / Spanish: Oso hormiguero sedoso de Rio Negro
Other common names: | da Silky Anteater
Taxonomy. Cyclopes didactylus ida Thomas, 1900,
“Sarayacu, Upper Pastasa [= Pastaza| River,” Ecuador.
Based on four specimens, O. Thomas in 1900 described subspecies ida from Ecua- dor as presenting the general color more similar to nominate didactylus than to subspecies dorsalis. Subspecies codajazensis was described in 1942 by E. Lonnberg, and it closely matched C. ida, with uniformly gray body, limbs, and tail and absence of ventral stripe. Despite Lonnberg noting clearly marked dorsal stripe, examination of the holotype specimen revealed it to be much more indistinct, conforming to what is usually found in C. ida. Monotypic.
Distribution. W & S of Rio Negro, with S limit at the Amazon River; additionally, there is a record in forests of E Andes of Colombia, although N limit is unknown.
Descriptive notes. No specific data are available. Dorsal pelage, legs, and tail of the Rio Negro Silky Anteater are completely gray. Underparts are light yellow, without ventral stripe. Dorsal stripe, when present,is indistinct and blended into dorsal fur. Frontonasal region of skull is depressed, giving a concave profile. External aperture of ear is directed laterally. Naso-maxillary sutures are about parallel to each other, forming wide fronto-maxillary suture. Fronto-parietal suture is horseshoe-shaped, and pterygoid bone partially overlaps tympanic bulla.
Habitat. Amazonian forest and common in areas of seasonally inundated blackwater forest (“igap6”) and small tributary rivers or canals (“igarapé”).
Food and Feeding. The Rio Negro Silky Anteater is an opportunistic forager. Its diet consists almost entirely of ants.
Breeding. Gestation of the Rio Negro Silky Anteater lasts 120-150 days.
Activity patterns. The Rio Negro Silky Anteater is arboreal and nocturnal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. No information.
Status and Conservation. Not assessed on The IUCN Red Lust. It is necessary to evaluate conservation status of the Rio Negro Silky Anteater because of recent taxonomic revisions, requiring clarification ofits distribution.

Powellitheca gen. nov.
Diagnosis
See genus diagnosis below.
Remarks
Powellithecidae fam. nov. is erected to accommodate the new genus Powellitheca gen. nov., characterised by a unique suite of morphological characters when compared with all the known families sharing the same microporelliform ooecial structure. The microporelliform ooecium consists of an uncalcified ectooecium and a calcified endooecium separated by a narrow coelomic space in communication with the hypostegal coelom of the distal autozooid, and has been found only in the lepraliomorph families Microporellidae Hincks, 1879, Pacificincolidae Liu & Liu, 1999, Schizoporellidae Jullien, 1883, Myriaporidae Gray, 1824 and Porinidae d’Orbigny, 1852 (Ostrovsky 2013). Powellitheca gen. nov. cannot be accommodated in any of these families. It lacks the ascopore typical of Microporellidae and the small heterozooid (avicularium or kenozooid) placed between the orifice and the umbo seen in Pacificincolidae. In Schizoporellidae the orifice has well-defined condyles separating a distinct anter from a small sinus, while the orifice in Powellitheca gen. nov. is dimorphic, condyles are faint and a sinus is lacking. An orifice with sinus and condyles also characterises Myriaporidae from which Powellitheca gen. nov. further differs in having multiporous instead of uniporous septula. Porinidae typically have erect colonies, a primary orifice with a well-defined sinus, a well-developed aviculiferous peristome, and a short frontal spiramen.
