description: Army ants are widely recognized as keystone species in neotropical rainforests due to their role as important arthropod predators. Their large‐scale raids involve thousands of workers scouring the forest floor in pursuit of prey, primarily capturing other invertebrates. Up to 20 species of army ants coexist in a rainforest, and dietary niche differentiation has been proposed as a mechanism to alleviate competition among them. Based on only a handful of study sites, however, our understanding of the precise dietary preferences and the extent of niche differentiation remains notably limited. In this study, we aimed to expand our knowledge of army ant communities by resolving an Ecuadorian predation network consisting of 244 prey species and 13 army ant species representing the five known neotropical army ant genera: Cheliomyrmex, Eciton, Labidus, Neivamyrmex, and Nomamyrmex. We collected 2156 prey items from 180 army ant raids/emigrations, and of these, we identified 1945 prey items to the family level, 1313 to the genus level, and 664 to the species level based on morphological identifications and DNA barcodes. Prey consisted primarily of other ants (1843 prey items; 153 ant species), to the largest part ant brood (N = 1726). Hence, most army ant species chiefly plundered the nests of other ants, while the three swarm raiding species, that is, Lab. praedator, Lab. spininodis, and Ec. burchellii, exhibited a relatively high proportion of non‐ant invertebrate prey in their diet. The predation network showed a high degree of specialization (H2′ = 0.65), characterized by little dietary niche overlap among sympatric species. We compared the Ecuadorian network with one previously studied in Costa Rica and found that, despite the large geographic distance, prey preferences remained remarkably similar. We discovered species‐specific preferences for captured ant genera and species, despite some species turnover in both army ants and prey. Additionally, army ants also exhibited consistent spatiotemporal raiding preferences across study sites. In conclusion, predation preferences within army ant communities exhibited consistency in multiple niche dimensions across two distant neotropical rainforests, suggesting a notable level of predictability within army ant predation networks.

description: Subgenus Trigonocryptops Verhoeff, 1906
Type species. Cryptops gigas Kraepelin, 1903 (by subsequent designation of Attems, 1930).
Range (after Schileyko & Stoev 2016). Caribbean Islands: Cuba; South Аmerica: Peru, South-East Brazil (São Paulo State, Rio de Janeiro State, Minas Geras State), Аrgentina (Buenos Аires, Sierra de la Ventana); Europe: Spain; Аfrica: Аlgeria, Morocco, Ivory Coast, Guinea, Tanzania, Somalia, Yemen (Sokotra Island), Gabon, Benin, Cameroon, Congo; South-East Аsia: India (Nagpur), Vietnam; Pacific: Аustralia (Queensland, Western Аustralia), Sumba, East Timor, New Guinea Island, Solomon Islands, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Fiji.
Remarks. Аttems (1930: 241) was the first to regard C. sarasini Ribaut, 1923 as a member of Trigonocryptops. Without producing drawings or discussing morphological details, Würmli (1974) considered C. sarasini var. furcata Ribaut, 1923 (with W-shaped anterior parts of the paramedian sutures of tergite 1; see fig. 46 in Ribaut 1923) as a synonym of C. sarasini Ribaut, 1923 (in which these sutures are straight; see Ribaut’s fig. 36). We read (p. 525): “Die var. furcata beruht weitgehend auf einem Juvenilmerkmal und ist deswegen einzuziehen. (Nova Synonymia)”. We should note, however, that a feature as the W-shaped configuration of the paramedian sutures of tergite 1 is not a juvenile condition, but a species-specific character in two scolopendromorph genera– Cryptops and Newportia Gervais, 1847. We have re-studied the adult specimen No 7502 in ZMMU (Zoological Museum of Moscow Lomonosov State University) of Cryptops (Trigonocryptops) sarasini var. furcata from Sao Paolo (Brazil). This specimen has tergite 1 with well-developed W-shaped paramedian sutures (Fig. 19) and corresponds well in all aspects to both the recent diagnosis of Trigonocryptops provided by Schileyko & Stoev (2016) and the original description and drawings of C. sarasini var. furcata. To sum up, we confirm this taxon as subspecies, became as Cryptops (Trigonocryptops) sarasini furcatus (Ribaut, 1923), but its peculiar combination of characters may possibly require for C. (T.) sarasini furcatus even the status of full species.

Remarks. The J2 of an unidentified species of Heterodera was found in golf course tees established with bermudagrass in Horry County, SC. No cysts or white females were found. The morphology and morphometrics of J2’s were similar to those of H. mani, which was described from perennial rye-grass (Lolium perenne) in Magilligan, Northern Ireland by Mathews (1971) and has been recorded from the Western Hemisphere and California (Golden 1979), Northern Ireland (Mowat 1974), Germany (Sturhan 1976a; 2006), Belgium (Vandenbossche et al. 2011), the Netherlands (Maas & Brinkman 1977), Estonia (Krall et al. 1999), Iran (Moghaddam & Kheiri 1995) and Pakistan (Maqbool 1980). The 18S rDNA and ITS sequence (2289 bp sequenced) had 99% identity with a European population of H. mani (EU669916 1700 bp sequenced) (Holterman et al. 2009). However, as no cysts were detected in this study, the species of Heterodera could not be determined. This is the first record of Heterodera from turfgrasses in SC.

description: The Cassini and Juno missions have considerably expanded our understanding of Saturn, Jupiter, and their moons. The spacecraft radio tracking data acquired by the NASA Deep Space Network (DSN) have enabled the accurate measurement of gravitational perturbations of these planetary bodies on the spacecraft trajectory. The inferred static zonal gravity fields have been key in understanding the interior structure and dynamics within Jupiter and Saturn. Repeated flybys of moons such as Titan and Enceladus can also constrain their interior properties, putting constraints on their formation and evolution, and potential habitability. The exploration of the Uranus system by NASA抯 future flagship mission (Uranus Orbiter and Probe, UOP) holds the promise of making similar gains for Uranus and its moons. Here we address the gravity science that may be possible with UOP.

description: This letter extends a Finite Difference model reduction method to the Euler-Bernoulli beam equation with fully clamped boundary conditions. The corresponding partial differential equation (PDE) is exactly observable in the energy space with a single boundary observer in arbitrarily short observation times. However, standard Finite Difference spatial discretization fails to achieve uniform exact observability as the mesh parameter approaches zero, with minimal observation time potentially depending on the filtering parameter. To address this, we propose a Finite Difference algorithm incorporating an averaging operator and discrete multipliers, leveraging Haraux’s theorem on the spectral gap to ensure uniform observability. This approach eliminates the need for artificial viscosity or Fourier filtering. Our method achieves uniform observability for arbitrarily small times with dual observers-the tip moment and average tip velocity-mirroring results from mixed Finite Elements applied to the wave equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions, where dual controllers converge to the single controller of the PDE model [Castro, Micu-Numerische Mathematiik’06]. Our reduced model is applicable to more complex systems involving Euler-Bernoulli beam equations.

description: This PhD forms a response to the silences inherent in dominant narratives of disaster, which focus on tragedy, suffering and rescue as the conventional media’s mythologising of disaster unfolds. The project involved longitudinal interviewing with people affected by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. It resulted in a creative nonfiction manuscript, After 3.11, about experiences of rebuilding in tsunami-inundated areas of Miyagi prefecture, and an exegesis examining the precedents and application of recovery writing in a transcultural context. It demonstrates the value of recovery writing, and how it can be produced in a compelling manner with empathy and respect.

description: Genus Eirene Eschscholtz, 1829
Diagnosis: Eirenidae medusa with distinct, broad gastric peduncle; cirri absent; with or without excretory pores; 4-6 simple radial canals; gonads on subumbrellar part of radial canals, not extending to gastric peduncle; numerous statocysts (>8).
The hydroids of ‘ Campanulina ’, ‘ Campanopsis ’ or ‘ Eugymnanthea ’ type (see Bouillon et al., 2006).
Remark: Clytia species with a short gastric peduncle like Clytia gregaria (see below) are formally not distinguishable from Eirene species. Thus, some nominal Eirene species (Schuchert, 2017a; see Du et al., 2010 for a key to the species) with a shallow peduncle and no excretory papillae could therefore also be Clytia species. Life-cycle studies or DNA barcodes (Schuchert et al., 2017) have to confirm the identity of Eirene pentanemalis Lin, Xu & Huang, 2013, Eirene brevistylus Huang & Xu, 1994, and other similar species.

description: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) enhances Large Language Models (LLMs) by integrating external document retrieval to provide domain-specific or up-to-date knowledge. The effectiveness of RAG depends on the relevance of retrieved documents, which is influenced by the semantic alignment of embeddings with the domain's specialized content. Although full fine-tuning can align language models to specific domains, it is computationally intensive and demands substantial data. This paper introduces Hierarchical Embedding Alignment Loss (HEAL), a novel method that leverages hierarchical fuzzy clustering with matrix factorization within contrastive learning to efficiently align LLM embeddings with domain-specific content. HEAL computes level/depth-wise contrastive losses and incorporates hierarchical penalties to align embeddings with the underlying relationships in label hierarchies. This approach enhances retrieval relevance and document classification, effectively reducing hallucinations in LLM outputs. In our experiments, we benchmark and evaluate HEAL across diverse domains, including Healthcare, Material Science, Cyber-security, and Applied Maths.

Measurements. See Table 8.
Remarks. Belonolaimus longicaudatus was described from soil around the roots of Zea mays in Sanford, Florida, by Rau (1958). It is a major plant parasite in the southeastern USA, with widespread distribution throughout the Atlantic Coastal Plain from Virginia to Florida (Orton Williams 1974a). It has been recorded from NC (Lucas et al. 1974, 1978), Connecticut, Louisiana, Texas (Christie 1959), New Jersey (Myers 1979), Oklahoma (Russell et al. 1969), Arkansas (Riggs 1961), Kansas (Dickerson et al. 1972) and California (Mundo-Ocampo et al. 1994). Holdeman (1955) reported B. longicaudatus in Florida, Georgia, NC, SC and Virginia. It has a wide host range including citrus (Duncan et al. 1996), soybean (Handoo et al. 2010), corn (Rhoades 1986), cotton (Koenning et al. 2004), carrot (Rhoades 1975) and turfgrasses (Robbins & Barker 1973). It is considered the most important pest of turf and pasture grasses (Heald & Perry 1970; Crow 2005b). This species has been documented in association with many grass species, including bermudagrass, creeping bentgrass, zoysiagrass, crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis), pangolagrass (D. decumbens), Pensacola bahiagrass (Paspalum notatum), centipedegrass (Eremochloa ophiuroides), tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea), Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), sudangrass (Sorghum vulgare var. sudanense), limpograss (Hemarthria altissima) and St. Augustine grass (Stenotaphrum secundatum) (Johnson 1970; Orton Williams 1974a; Busey et al. 1991; Giblin-Davis et al. 1992). In this survey, B. longicaudatus was found in 131 turfgrass samples in three turf management zones (green, fairway and tee) in both NC and SC and three grass species (bermudagrass, creeping bentgrass, zoysiagrass) from 24 counties. There was no difference in morphology and morphometrics compared to the original and other descriptions of the species (Rau 1958; Han et al. 2006).

description: Cognitive behavioral couple therapy (CBCT) is a model of therapy targeting cognitions, emotional responses, and behavioral interactions between couples experiencing relationship distress. Routine outcome monitoring (ROM) is a tool that clinicians can use to track the progress of their clients in therapy from the perspective of the client. This study aimed to use MFT-PRN, a type of ROM, to gather client progress throughout CBCT treatment. Prototypical change trajectories were created in Microsoft Excel for examination of presenting problem progress, couple satisfaction, and overall relationship functioning. It was found that small data sensitivity affected the trajectories immensely, though ROM outcomes revealed how couples did experience more relationship satisfaction over the course of CBCT treatment.

description: The Hilltop Institute is proud to introduce the Price Transparency State Profiles, an innovative public resource offering centralized access to hospital pricing data as well as links to state laws on hospital price transparency. In response to the Hospital Price Transparency Rule, enacted as of January 1, 2021, requiring hospitals to disclose machine-readable data files of standard charges on their websites, Hilltop抯 initiative aims to make hospital pricing data more accessible and user-friendly to researchers, policymakers, and the public.Recognizing the lack of standardized data formats specified by the regulation, and with funding from the National Science Foundation, Hilltop is collecting, processing, and publishing data from hundreds of hospitals across the United States. To date, the Price Transparency State Profiles encompass data from 11 states, with ongoing efforts to expand coverage across the entire country. To enhance cross-hospital research, the collected data undergoes a transformation into a common data model.The Price Transparency State Profiles are the centerpiece of Hilltop抯 new area of work in price transparency. Hilltop researchers have been analyzing the data to study a variety of issues, including affordability of emergency services for self-pay patients, cross-hospital price variation, and trends in hospital prices over time. Each state抯 profile can be accessed through an interactive map that shows which states have data, which states have laws, and which states have both.

description: Background: Lytic bacteriophages, or phages, hold considerable promise as therapeutic agents against antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) bacteria. Several countries use phage therapy for difficult-to-treat infections; however, its global application remains largely experimental, mainly due to the high host specificity of phages. We investigated the role of bacterial Multi-Locus Sequence Typing (MLST) in determining phage host ranges.
Methods: The ongoing AMR surveillance at icddr,b has identified a high diversity of Klebsiella pneumoniae, with >100 MLSTs in stool specimens. We used one of those K. pneumoniae, Sequence Type 22 (ST22), as a primary host and isolated 10 phages from hospital effluents. These phages were further sequenced using NGS methods and subjected to host range analysis by direct-spot testing against 105 other K. pneumoniae MLSTs.Results: The NGS data identified the Jiaodavirus and Sugarlandvirus genera, with genome sizes ranging from 22 Kbps to 174 Kbps. Within these genomes, multiple lytic proteins and tRNAs that had a direct role in bacterial cell lysis were identified using Pharokka. Phage 22KPN4 exhibited clear lysis against 41 STs, followed by 22KPN9 with lysis against 37 STs, 22KPN5 and 22KPN6 each against 30 STs, and both 22KPN1 and 22KPN3 against 25 STs. Phage 22KPN10 exhibited high specificity to ST22 and did not lyse any other STs. Comparative genomics analysis identified 3,612 genes common across all STs and 1,024 distinct genes. These distinct genes might play a role in bacteria-phage interactions. Notably, 38 genes were absent in ST22 but present in other STs, potentially contributing to gain-of-function in phage defense.Conclusions: Our findings suggest that MLST plays a crucial role in determining bacteria-phage interactions. This insight opens the door to personalized phage therapies and highlights the importance of developing phage bio-banks targeting local isolates, offering multiple options for phage therapy against AMR bacteria.

Remarks: See Vannucci (1957) and Bouillon (1984) for a discussion and comparison of species.
According to Migotto et al. (2004), Eutima sapinhoa Narchi & Hebling, 1975 lacks cirri and in the adult medusa the gonads stretch from the manubrium to close to the bell margin. Using the classification of Bouillon et al. (2006), the species must therefore be transferred to the genus Neotima as Neotima sapinhoa (Narchi & Hebling, 1975) n. comb.
