Poecile lugubris persica pražák

description: Poecile lugubris persica Pražák
Poecile lugubris persica Pražák, 1895b: 81.
NOW. Parus lugubris dubius Hellmayr, 1901. See Vaurie (1959: 484) and Dickinson (2003: 527).
Holotype. NMW 33353 (Tschusi 5502), 3, collected by “Zarudny” [= Nikolaj Alekseevič Zarudnyj (1859– 1919)] on “ 26.XII.93 ” [= 7 January 1894 NS] at “Isarchun” [= Sarkhun, Iran; 31.75°N, 50.55°E].
Remarks. Pražák (1895b: 81) said that he studied 14 specimens of Parus lugubris from ‘Palestina’, ‘Syria’ and ‘Persia’, but based P. l. persica on specimens from ‘Persia’ alone (Pražák 1895b: 81–82). Only a single relevant tit was available to Pražák in the VTH in the early 1890s, which I consider the holotype of P. l. persica (no such tits were in the NHMW). The remaining specimens apparently existed only in Pražák’s mind. Vaurie (1950: 2) stated, without evidence, that Pražák (1895b) based his persica on “ Parus lugubris?” of Blanford (1876: 229), but I found nothing in Pražák (1895b) in support of this claim.
Poecile lugubris persica Pražák, 1895b, is preoccupied in the genus Parus Linnaeus, 1758, by Parus persicus Blanford, 1873 = Parus caeruleus persicus Blanford, 1873. Hellmayr (1901: 173) therefore replaced Pražák’s Poecile lugubris persica with Parus lugubris dubius Hellmayr, 1901. The latter subspecies has the same holotype and the same type locality as Poecile lugubris persica Pražák (Art. 72.7 of the Code).

description: Genus Endodrelanva Gorochov, 1999
Notes. Species have only inner tympanum on the fore tibiae; male tegmen with dorsal field distinctly longer than lateral field; male genitalia with a dorsally directed anterior part of epiphallus and with the rachis protruding behind the apices of posteromedial epiphallic lobules (Gorochov, 2016). Currently, four species are known from the genus, three species from Borneo (E. chopardi, Gorochov, 2016, E. macrorachis Gorochov, 2016 and E. peculiaris Gorochov, 2016) and one species from Malay Peninsula (E. tomentosa (Chopard, 1931)). Endolandrevus pubescens Chopard, 1930 from Borneo may also be transferred to the genus but require further examination (Gorochov, 2016). Here, a new species from Malay Peninsula is described. A key to all known species is also constructed.

Arctosa mulani

description: Arctosa mulani (Dyal, 1935)
Pardosa mulani Dyal, 1935: 146, plate XIII, figs 45–46. Transferred to Arctosa by Tikader & Malhotra (1980: 373), though based on misidentified specimens.
Type material. Types (male and female) from PAKISTAN: Mojpur; collector unknown; 1928-29; repository unknown, probably Zoological Laboratory, Government College, Lahore, not examined. Neotype material (designated by Tikader & Malhotra (1980)): 2 males and 6 females from INDIA: Maharashtra: Satara: Near Pratapgad rest house; B.K. Tikader leg.; 26 March 1976; repository unknown, probably NZC-ZSI, Kolkata, not found. It may either be lost or misplaced elsewhere in the collection or may not have been deposited in ZSI.
Remarks. Dyal (1935) described A. mulani based on male and female specimens collected in Pakistan. Even though it was originally described under Pardosa C.L. Koch, 1847, the illustration of the female epigynum (Dyal 1935: fig. 46) clearly indicates it is a member of Arctosa. However, as mentioned above, Tikader & Malhotra (1980) and Lu et al. (2016) probably misidentified this species. Thus, the neotype designation by Tikader & Malhotra (1980) is doubtful and we herein consider A. mulani as a species inquirenda.

description: Carpophilus antiquus Melsheimer
Carpophilus antiquus Melsheimer 1844: 105.
Lectotype (here designated) housed at the MCZ. Specimen was found in the Melsheimer collection identified and labeled as the holotype of Cercus punctulatus Melsheimer 1844, whereas a specimen labeled as the holotype of Carpophilus antiquus Melsheimer was not recovered from the Melsheimer collection nor from any other material housed at the MCZ. Parsons (1943) stated that the type for C. antiquus was indeed housed in the Melsheimer collection but made no mention of C. punctulatus. Upon close inspection and comparison to the original description by Melsheimer it was determined that the specimen studied can only be the actual type specimen for C. antiquus —the two species were described in the same manuscript and the type localities are both listed as “ Pennsylvania ” creating the opportunity for a misdiagnosis. The specimen treated here as the single syntype for C. antiquus does not match the coloration, punctation, dull surface, elytral length, or pronotal angles of C. punctulatus. The specimen does, however, match the original description Melsheimer gave for C. antiquus with the elytral apices being much darker that the rest of the dorsal surface, pronotal disc minutely punctured, acute hind pronotal angles, and overall reddish-brown coloration. The actual type specimen for Cercus punctulatus has not yet been recovered and may not have been designated with the appropriate labels when the error occurred. Several major collections have been searched (NHM, USNM) without success. Labels read as follows: “ Melsh ” “ M.C.Z. Type 26488” “ C. punctulatus ”. A red label was added as follows: “ Lectotype / Carpophilus antiquus / Melsheimer, 1844 / Designated by Powell & Cline 2016”.

description: Carpophilus apicalis LeConte
Carpophilus (Myothorax) pilosellus Motschulsky, 1858 = Carpophilus apicalis LeConte 1859: 6, revised synonymy The earliest reference listing this synonymy is a catalogue by Henshaw (1885); however, this work likely does not represent the actual proposed taxonomic change. After study of the primary type material, the differences between C. apicalis LeConte and C. discoideus LeConte were determined to be numerous and distinct. This species is clearly not related to C. discoideus nor the subgenus Ecnomorphus Motschulsky in general, to which the latter belongs; rather, it is closely aligned with members of the subgenus Myothorax Murray. The glabrous, depressed body plan found in Ecnomorphus is absent in C. apicalis. After comparison with the primary type material, we find this species is instead synonymous with Carpophilus pilosellus Motschulsky, 1858, a species that was described one year prior. This status change is an attempt to limit confusion. Although the species name remains in synonymy, this transfer will help solidify subgeneric definitions in the group and avoid potential problems with future phylogenetic work.

Quedius

description: Subgenus Quedius
Diagnosis. The diagnostic characters of the subgenus Quedius were determined based on limited morphological data on Q. fuliginosus and Q. molochinus, extracted from the respective descriptions by Smetana (1962), Pototskaya (1967), Kasule (1970), and the present study. The combination of characters that distinguish the larvae of the subgenus Quedius from those of other subgenera of Quedius are the following: head widened anteriorly; posterior part of nasale as in Fig. 3B; medial tooth (Mt) of labrum low (at most reaching half of paramedian teeth length), Lt2 distinct; mandible slender with pointed apex; antennal segment I slightly broad; large sensory appendage on segment III acorn-shaped, relatively slender (more than twice as long as wide); apotome clearly extending beyond tentiorial pit; mala, maxillary and labial palp, and segment I of urogomphi distinctly slender; pygopod distinctly (1.5–1.7x) longer than urogomphi.

Zoobank registration: urn: lsid: zoobank. org:act: A8809BE3-D927-432B-9C04-0AC83C27391F
Etymology: The genus name is the combination of scopa, broom in Latin, after the clustered clavate spicules on the palpal retrolateral tibial apophysis (RTA), and the Greek suffix -μεγόψ, magnification, from Lagonomegops, type genus of the family. The name is masculine.
Type species: Scopomegops fax sp. nov.
Diagnosis: Male palpal tibia with a small apophysis on the distal retrolateral surface, several clustered clavate spicules situated on the top of retrolateral apophysis; leg metatarsus distinctly much longer than tarsus.
Remarks: CNU-ARA-MA2 0 2 0 0 0 1 is an adult male. It can be easily distinguished from other male lagonomegopids by the apophysis on the distal retrolateral surface of the male palpal tibia. It cannot be included in the two lagonomegopid genera (Lagonoburmops Wunderlich, 2012 and Picturmegops Wunderlich, 2015) comprised only of female specimens, because of: carapace piriform in outline, much longer than wide (carapace distinctly narrowed posteriorly, slightly wider than long in Picturmegops); leg setae not long and dense (legs densely covered with long setae in Lagonoburmops). Conspecific spiders have some morphological differences at different developmental stages (Foelix, 2011). It is difficult to judge whether an adult male and a juvenile are the same species, especially in fossils. Therefore, we have erected a new genus Scopomegops based on CNU-ARA-MA2020001.
Besides Scopomegops, seven species belonging to five genera of Lagonomegopidae are known to have one or more apophyses on the male palpal tibia. In Albiburmops annulipes Wunderlich, 2017, the carapace length is equal to its width, whereas the carapace is distinctly much longer than wide in Scopomegops. In Archaelagonops propinquus Wunderlich, 2015 and Archaelagonops scorsum Wunderlich, 2015, the palpal tibia bears two apophyses, whereas there is only one in Scopomegops. In Cymbiolagonops cymbiocalcar Wunderlich, 2015, the palpal tibia bears a divided apophysis, whereas the RTA is undivided in Scopomegops. In? Parviburmops bigibber Wunderlich, 2017, the tibial apophysis is situated on the ventral surface, but is on the retrolateral surface in Scopomegops. In Paxillomegops longipes Wunderlich, 2015 and? Paxillomegops brevipes Wunderlich, 2015, the palpal tibia bears numerous short peg bristles, which are lacking in Scopomegops.

Arctosa quinquedens Dhali et al., 2012: 1200, figs 1–6, 18. Dhali et al. 2017: 78, plate XXIII, figs 394–398.
Type material. Female holotype from INDIA: West Bengal: Jalpaiguri: Buxa Tiger Reserve: Rajabhatkhawa (26°36’57.59’’N, 89°31’56.62’’E), 81 m alt.; D.C. Dhali leg.; 9 April 2009; repository EZC (0025-12), examined from photographs.
Diagnosis. Females of O. quinquedens closely resemble the females of Ovia procurva (Yu & Song, 1988) in the general appearance of the epigynum, but can be easily distinguished from the latter by large epigynal atria, which are small in O. procurva (compare Fig. 11 A–B to Sankaran et al. 2017: fig. 5J).
Description. For female, see Dhali et al. (2012).
Male. Unknown.
Justification of the transfer. Dhali et al. (2012) described this species based on a single female specimen collected in West Bengal. The original genitalia illustrations (Dhali et al. 2012: figs 5–6) of this species are highly schematic and do not facilitate identification. The paired anterior hoods of the epigynum (Fig. 11B) clearly indicate that this species is misplaced in Arctosa, as species of this genus lack anterior epigynal hoods and have well-developed epigynal median septum (Dondale & Redner 1983; Yoo et al. 2007). Instead, the general female habitus and colour pattern, the female epigynum with paired wide, longitudinal atria separated by a narrow median septum and the paired conspicuous anterior epigynal hoods (Dhali et al. 2012: fig. 18; Fig. 11 A-B) indicate that it may be a member of Ovia Sankaran, Malamel & Sebastian, 2017. However, it will be confirmed only after examining the vulva of this species, which could not be examined for this study.

The original Say type specimen of this species is lost or destroyed. Carpophilus brachypterus is a member of the speciose subgenus Ecnomorphus, and a neotype designation is necessary to provide taxonomic stability to the name and prevent potential taxonomic and systematic problems in the future. A male specimen collected at a similar time and matching the original type locality of “eastern United States ” was chosen from general holdings at the MCZ and is deposited there. Labels for the designated specimen are as follows: “Penn” “ ♂ ” “MCZ ENT/00596662”. Red label added reads as follows: “ Neotype / Nitidula brachyptera / Say, 1825 /Designated by Powell & Cline 2016”.

Scops scops taczanowskii Pražák, 1891: 19 [Manuscript name, cited after Pražák, 1897e: 442.]
Remarks. Pražák (1897e: 442) stated that he described this form in his previous book (Pražák 1891: 19), which, however, had never been published. Pražák (1897e: 442) withdrew his S. s. taczanowskii, explaining that the separation of the form “mir aber jetzt zu kühn erscheint” (“seems too daring to me now”). Scops scops taczanowskii Pražák, 1891, is thus a manuscript name without standing in zoological nomenclature. Pražák’s (1897e: 442) reference to Taczanowski (1882: 149) is irrelevant from the nomenclatural point of view.

description: Most survivors of severe acquired brain injuries will have significant long-term disability. During inpatient rehabilitation, families often have expectations of recovery that do not match healthcare professional opinion. This impacts on patient care, service processes, professional-family relations, and wellbeing. This review aimed to understand how family expectations are managed in this setting, and to explore potential areas of improvement. A scoping review was conducted by searching CINAHL, Medline, EMBASE and Web of Science. Krieger et al’s ‘Conceptual Building Blocks’ provided a framework to analyze the data using a ‘best fit’ framework synthesis approach. Twenty-one papers were included in the review. Six sub-themes within three overarching themes were generated, which explored recommendations for effective expectation management. The sub-themes within the ‘staff behaviors’ theme were ‘appropriate information provision,’ ‘open communication’ and ‘prioritize family.’ Sub-themes within ‘system behaviors’ were ‘cultural change’ and ‘increased resource.’ ‘Rehabilitation as a shared process’ was the third theme. Misaligned expectations of recovery appear to reflect a range of unmet family needs related to their position within the healthcare hierarchy, professional-family communication, and their involvement in rehabilitation processes. Early identification of family and healthcare professional expectations alongside regular review may prevent misunderstanding and conflict.

description: Genus Odontogryllodes Chopard, 1969
Notes. Body are rather small and cylindrical. Males have short tegmina and completely lack stridulatory apparatus. Male metanotal gland present, but tympanum absent. Females have short ovipositor (Gorochov, 2016). Currently, five species are known from the genus: two from Malay Peninsula (O. angulatus Gorochov, 2016 and O. latus Chopard, 1969), two from Sumatra (O. brevicauda Chopard, 1969 and O. rotundatus Gorochov, 2016) and one from Java (O. stenus Gorochov, 2000). Here, a new species from Malay Peninsula is described. A key to all known species is also constructed.

description: Cratocentrus Cameron
Cratocentrus Cameron, 1907: 213. Original description. Type species C. ruficornis Cameron, 1907, subsequent designation by Gahan and Fagan (1923).
= Cerachalcis Masi, 1944: Steffan, 1957: 239.
= Lepidochalcis Nikol'skaya, 1952: Steffan, 1957: 239.
Diagnosis and recognition. The main characters for the diagnosis of the genus are stated in the key. The areolation of the metatibia along the tarsal groove apparently is an autapomorphy of the genus, as is the absence of a mesal stripe of setation dorsally on the bottom of the antennal depression (only one exception found). The well expanded basal stripe of the syntergum separates the genus from Spatocentrus, Acrocentrus and Philocentrus, all genera described by Steffan (1959). The well expanded fasciae on GT5 and GT6 distinguishes Cratocentrus from Marres Walker and Acanthochalcis Cameron. The presence of teeth on the vertex on the inner edge of the lateral ocelli, although often observed in Cratocentrus, is nevertheless not found in all species and hence cannot be used for diagnosing the genus. Finally, in most Afrotropical species the pronotal carina is visible dorsally, progressively fading from the sides but separating the collum from the collar on most of the pronotal width. According to these characters Cerachalcis birmana Masi does not belong to Cratocentrus as already quoted by Steffan (1959).
Distribution. The genus is now represented in the West Palaearctic region by 4 species, one of the relevant species, C. tomentosus, having also been collected once in India. Cratocentrus is most diverse in the Afrotropics with at least 14 existing species.
Hosts. The genus was repeatedly reared from branches and twigs infested with xylophagous beetles which are supposed to be its hosts, as for the other Cratocentrinae. The biological data are nevertheless known only for C. fastuosus (Masi) (Masi 1944), C. pruinosus Steffan (Steffan 1959) and C. inermus Delvare sp. nov. (present paper).

Nitops mexicanus (Reitter, 1873) = Nitops nigrovittatus (Parsons 1943: 167), new synonymy
Nitops nigrovittatus is hereby placed in synonymy with Nitops mexicanus (Reitter, 1873). This placement was first proposed by Parsons in correspondence recently found in the MCZ. Kirejtshuk (1997) also referred to this possible status change, however he represented the issue with a “?” in his publication denoting uncertainty about the status of the species. The junior name has been used in recent work (see Torres 2013) and persists as the principal determination in museums in North America, thereby demonstrating the need for clarification. The examination of type material and specimens identified by Parsons later in his career agree with the proposed change. Nitops mexicanus is a variable species ranging from the southwest United States south into Central America.

Cercus pallipennis Say 1823: 194.
After examination of the remaining specimens from the Say and Harris collections at the Museum of Comparative Zoology, no appropriate specimens were located for lectotype designation. A male specimen from the LeConte and Horn collection (MCZ), collected from near the original type locality of “eastern Colorado, near the Rocky Mountains”, was chosen as a suitable replacement. The specimen represents the typical phenotype for the species from the original type locality. Future revisionary work in this genus may result in additional closely related cryptic taxa discovered elsewhere across the current widespread range of N. pallipennis. Labels for the newly designated specimen are as follows: “Col” “Horn Coll/H3673” “MCZ ENT/00596673”. Red label added reads as follows: “ Neotype / Cercus pallipennis / Say, 1823 / Designated by Powell & Cline 2016”.
The authors would like to thank Max Barclay (NHM), Roger Booth (NHM), Rachel Hawkins (MCZ), Charyn Micheli (USNM), Philip Perkins (MCZ), and Floyd Shockley (USNM) for access to valuable historic material. The authors also appreciate the advice of Eugenio Nearns on taxonomic procedure. Lastly Jennifer Zaspel, Philip Perkins, Matthew Gimmel, and one anonymous reviewer are thanked for input that improved the manuscript.

Type genus: Fourraea Greuter & Burdet
Herbs normally perennial, glaucous.Trichomes absent or simple, confined to margins of basal leaves.Leaves exclusively or nearly so entire, middle and upper cauline ones sessile, amplexicaul to strongly auriculate. Racemes ebracteate, elongated in fruit. Petals white, lavender, intense purple-violet. Ovules numerous. Fruits dehiscent, unsegmented, linear siliques, glabrous, latiseptate or nearly so, with distinct or obscure midvein. Seeds uniseriate; cotyledons accumbent.
Species of the Fourraeeae can generally (but not exclusively) be distinguished from those of the Arabideae by being either glabrous or at most with simple trichomes confined to leaf margins and that their seeds are always uniseriate. By contrast, species of the Arabideae have most often one or more type of branched trichomes that are sometimes mixed with simple ones, and seeds are often biseriate or very rarely aseriate, but uniseriate seeds are known and common in Arabideae, too.
Three species in two genera distributed in southern and central Europe and Morocco.
Key to genera.
