description: A biocompatible and edible colorimetric timer is obtained by exploiting the dynamic colour changes of the cholesteric liquid crystalline mesophases of hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) in aqueous suspensions. The edible timer is encapsulated between semi permeable membranes made of shellac. The cholesteric organisation of the HPC provides vibrant colouration, while the shellac layers allow tuning of the evaporation rate of water from the mesophase, which results in a colour change. Due to the biocompatibility of the components and the direct read-out of the system, i.e. the colour change can be visually detected, and the developed timer can be implemented as a colorimetric sensor with potential to be used in food packaging, and as a smart labelling system.

Clavicornaltica

description: Clavicornaltica Scherer, 1974
The genus Clavicornaltica is represented by very small (0.6–1.5 mm long), round and strongly convex beetles of brown to nearly black color. The genus is simply distinguishable from all other Oriental flea beetle genera by the presence of clavate antennae, which are unique among Alticini – the only other genus with clavate antennae and rounded, tiny body shape known to date is Kiskeya Konstantinov & Chamorro-Lacayo, 2006. This genus is distributed in the Carribean and is not likely related to Clavicornaltica (KONSTANTINOV & CHAMORRO- LACAYO 2006). The identification of Clavicornaltica species is, however, extremely difficult. First described species (SCHERER 1974) were documented without the description of genitalia, because the dissection of genitalia is very complicated. Clavicornaltica species are generally uniform externally, however vary in small details of their bodies which led to a erroneously wide concept of every species and multiple forms (‘formA’,‘form B’, etc.) were described to demonstrate small morphological nuances, which were understood as intraspecific variability (MEDVEDEV 1996). However, recent studies (KONSTANTINOV & DUCKETT 2005, SUENAGA & YOSHIDA 2016) revealed that Clavicornaltica species are externally similar, but can be distinguished by examination of their genitalia. The former broad concept of Clavicornaltica species was therefore abandoned and new species are diagnosed primarily by characters on both male and female genitalia. However, this study shows that also careful searching for external characters is necessary in Clavicornaltica studies, because in one collecting event, multiple externally uniform species can be found.

description: Sericostoma Latreille 1825
Diagnosis. Adults of genus Sericostoma may be distinguished from the other genera of the family found in the West Palearctic by having an open discoidal cell on the posterior wings (McLahlan 1874–1880). Hind wings of the other genera found in the West Palearctic have a closed discoidal cell. The maxillary palps of males are the most important diagnostic character of the genera. The maxillary palps of the male of Sericostoma are large, 3-segmented (Schmid 1947), each with the first two segments small, very difficult to see; the apical segment very large, oval, and masking the face, with the external surface convex and the internal surface concave with a bunch of very fine pale-yellow hairs; the apical ends of the third segments of the pair of maxillary palps reach the bases of scapes of the antennae. In some species the maxillary palps are smaller than in other species (McLachlan 1874 –1880), S. pedemontanum McLachlan 1876 and S. personatum Spence 1826 are examples of species with males having smaller maxillary palps. The antennal scapes are rather large, nearly triangular (Schmid 1947). The labial palps are not prominent. In females the maxillary palps are long, 5-segmented, and without conspicuous diagnostic characters.

Remarks. Specimen identified as Ivalia excavata is the only member of the genus Ivalia collected in Hong Kong. It can be distinguished from similar Cangshanaltica by having the anterolateral pronotal setiferous pore placed near to the pronotal apex and by lacking any protrusion on antennomere VII. The specimen is also very easily distinguishable from C. sprynari sp. nov. by their light orange color with black spots on elytra and greater size.
The species Ivalia excavata is known from Hunan Province, China. We compared the specimen with pictures of the holotype deposited in Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing. Another two species of Ivalia have been described from mainland China (KIMOTO & GRESSIT 1973). The specimen collected in Hong Kong is, also very similar to one of those species – I. maculata (Kimoto & Gressitt, 1973) based on the comparison with the original description. The identity of the specimen should be considered carefully because of the high endemism of Ivalia species and also the identity of the species needs to be revised (we were unable to study the holotype of I. maculata deposited in Bishop Museum, Honolulu, Hawaii). However, the specimen from Hong Kong differs from the original description of I. maculata in size (I. maculata is about 1.8 mm long, Hong Kong specimen is about 2.3 mm long) and coloration (I. maculata seem to have dorsal surfaces and legs darker than specimen from Hong Kong). Genitalia were not illustrated in the original descriptions and cannot be compared. In this paper, we provide detailed pictures of Ivalia excavata specimen from Hong Kong for the first time, including pictures of female genitalia (Figs 6 A–G). Further revision should reveal the correct status of this specimen.

Host plants. Filipendula ulmaria.
Distribution. West-Palaearctic. The verified country records are: Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Russia (Leningrad Oblast), Sweden, and Switzerland (complete record in the file http:// empriini.myspecies.info/files/imports/long_group_spec.txt).
Key characters. Posterior margin of pronotum and paired patches on abdominal terga 2–5 (6) unpigmented; tegulae and metatibia in basal 1/3 black, sometimes partly unpigmented. Ratio of flagellum length to head breadth in females 1.8–2.1, in males mostly 2.8–3.3, and eye length to head length 1.6–2.0. Number of serrulae (16) 17–18, with its ventral margins almost at the same level along its entire length (Fig. 43). Valviceps with medium sized lobe, forming a notch between valviceps and valvura (Figs 51, 56); valvura to valviceps length ratio mostly 0.6– 0.7.
Notes. Taxonomic identity is evident from the original description (e.g. fig 7c in Benson, 1938). Empria waldstaetterense Liston, 1980 (see Morphbank images id=579042–579045) was incorrectly synonymized with E. sexpunctata (Serville, 1823) by Liston (1995), under the name E. klugii (Stephens, 1835) at that time.

SİPAHİLER.
General description: The first 8 or 9 segments of the antennae are annulated; the maxillary palps are large (Fig 6). Length of each male forewing 10.0–10.5 mm (mean = 10.25 mm, n =2), of each female forewing 10.5–11.0 mm (mean = 10.75 mm, n = 2). Maxillary palps of male large, like those of the other species of the genus Sericostoma found in Turkey (SİPAHİLER, 2000).
Description of male genitalia. (Figs 7–10) In lateral view, basoventral branch of each sclerotized lateral prolongation of segment X is short, quadrangular, its apex stout and truncate; mesoventral branch very short, 1/5 as long as dorsal branch, quadrangular, with apex truncate and directed ventrad, dorsal branch longer, with small triangular pointed projection located subdistally on inner edge, and apically pointed. In lateral view, phallic apparatus having apical portion 1.4X as thick as basal portion, with basoventral carina triangular and as long as thickness of base.
Diagnosis: Sericostoma ida differs from the other species of the genus Sericostoma in Turkey by having short quadrangular mesoventral projections of the lateral prolongations of segment X, which are directed ventrad. Basoventral projections are also quadrangular. It resembles S. grusiense, which has the mesoventral projections of the lateral prolongations of segment X also directed ventrad, but in S. grusiense they are pointed at the tips. It resembles also S. flavicorne, but the mesoventral projections of that species are directed caudad and are pointed apically.
Remarks: Sericostoma ida is found in northwestern Turkey in a small area of the National Park of Kazdağlar Mountains (Ida Mountains).

Material. Holotype male: Turkey, Antalya, Finike, Alakır Stream, Çatallar Village, 450 m, 36°29′N, 30°14′E, 14.v.1982, (CD: U-12), leg. and coll. SİPAHİLER.
Paratypes: 2 females: Same data as for holotype.
General description. Antennae and maxillary palps brown, wings dark brown, legs pale brown yellowish; maxillary palps of males large dorsally (Fig. 21); length of each male forewing 12.0–12.5 mm (mean = 12.25 mm, n = 2), of each female forewing 13.0–14.0 mm (mean = 13.5 mm, n = 2).
Description of male genitalia (Figures 22–25): In lateral view, segment IX rather narrow and roundly dilated anterolaterally in 90° angle. Preanal appendages long and oval. lateral prolongations of segment X very distinct, each with basoventral forming equilateral triangle, apically acute and directed ventrad; mesoventral projection very long, 3/4 as long as dorsal branch, and nearly parallel to dorsal branch, mesoventral and dorsal branches both gradually tapering to acute apices. In dorsal view, segment X blunt apically; mesoventral and dorsal branches almost equal in breadth, both slightly diverging. In lateral view, dorsal lobe of each inferior appendage dilated ventrally to form ventral lobe, apical margin of dorsal lobe oval and longer than ventral lobe; in ventral view, ventral branches of inferior appendages rather short and broad, tips dilated mesally and laterally, nearly foot-shaped. In lateral view, phallic apparatus narrow at base, second half dilated, 1.5X as thick as base, basoventral carina semicircular and about as long as thickness of base.
Diagnosis. Sericostoma alakir sp. n. differs from the other species found in Turkey especially by the shape of the lateral prolongations of segment X, of which the mesoventral branch is only a little shorter than the dorsal branch. It resembles S. dimcay sp. n. described below; the mesoventral branch of this species is also long, slightly shorter than the dorsal branch; in dorsal view, the median part of segment X is apically rounded, while in S. dimcay sp. n. it is triangular and acute. In addition, the ventral branches of the inferior appendages of S. alakir sp. n. are straight and the apical parts triangular, acute mesally, whereas in S. dimcay sp. n. the ventral branches of the inferior appendages are sinuate and the apices are quadrangular, truncate mesally.
Remarks: Sericostoma alakir sp. n. inhabits a mountain stream with rapidly flowing water.

Discussion: Mader (1989; 1998) divided the Brontotheriidae into two relatively large monophyletic subfamilies: the Dolichorhininae and the Brontotheriinae (= Telmatheriinae, sensu Mader 1989). Eotitanops and Palaeosyops were resolved as sister genera to these subfamilies, but were not found to comprise a monophyletic taxon. Recent phylogenetic analyses by Mihlbachler (2008) generally support this conclusion. Eotitanops and Palaeosyops are accorded their own subfamilies in the present revision.

Notes. Nagai & Porion (1996) mentioned Saiva phesamensis Ollenbach, 1928 in their catalogue without illustration of the specimen.After examination of the type of Fulgora (Pyrops) virescens and photographs of the type specimens of Hotinus semiannulus and S. phesamensis, there is no difference among these. Hence, the synonymy of H. semiannulus is confirmed and S. phesamensis is here proposed as new junior synonyms of S. virescens.

Paratypes: 9 males, 11 females: Same data as for holotype.
General description. Antennae and maxillary palps pale brown, wings dark brown, maxillary palps of males gradually large on dorsal and ventral parts (Fig. 30); legs yellowish; length of each anterior wing of male 11.0–12.0 mm (mean = 10.7 mm, n = 8), of female 11.0–15.0 mm (mean = 12.8 mm, n = 8).
Description of male genitalia (Figures 31-34): In lateral view, segment IX is rather broad and dilated anterolaterally in 80° angle. Preanal appendages short, digitate. In dorsal view, segment X parallel-sided, blunt apically. In lateral view, lateral prolongations of segment X long; basoventral branch short, apically oblique; mesoventral branch narrow, half as long as dorsal branch; dorsal branch also rather narrow, almost uniform in width, its apex pointed; in dorsal view, dorsal branches of lateral prolongations subapically each with corner on inner edge. In lateral view, dorsal branch of each inferior appendage somewhat narrow on subapical part, ventral margin nearly straight; apical margin of dorsal lobe rounded and slightly longer than acute ventral lobe; in ventral view, ventral branches of inferior appendages straight, rather slender, apices pointed and curved mesad. In lateral view, phallic apparatus narrow at base, apical half dilated, about 2.0X as thick as base; basoventral carina small, triangular, curved caudad, about as long as thickness of base.
Diagnosis: Sericostoma taskent sp. n. resembles S. pinargozu sp. n. The following differences are seen in the males: The maxillary palps of S. taskent are dilated in the apicodorsal part, whereas in S. pinargozu sp. n. they are gradually dilated. The differences in the male genitalia are as follows: In S. taskent, segment IX is shorter laterally; the preanal appendages are smaller and shorter, whereas in S. pinargozu sp. n. segment IX is longer laterally, the preanal appendages are long and broader; in S. taskent sp. n. the lateral prolongations of segment X are broader in lateral view than those of S. pinargozu sp. n. and the distance between dorsal and mesoventral branches is smaller than between those of S. pinargozu. In addition, the dorsal lobe of each inferior appendage of S. taskent sp. n. is smaller than that of S. pinargozu sp. n.
Remarks. The habitat of S. taskent is also different; the holotype and paratypes of Sericostoma taskent sp. n. were collected from a spring 1–2 m in width.
