description: This article focuses on a work published in 1883 by a German Christian press associated
with a missionary society. The book provides a visual panorama of all the world’s
cultures in 1,690 engravings. Most images were reproductions of material that had
initially appeared in a variety of other contexts, ranging from missionary periodicals
to secular travel magazines and British colonial literature. This study examines
the message that the volume’s editors wanted to convey: the extra-European world
was portrayed as devoid of historical agency, non-Christian religions as false, and the
presence of western agents – in particular, missionaries – as providential. Retracing
the life story of a few images, I show that some of them communicated these notions
better than others. For example, engravings based on photographs were often not as
polemical as those based on drawings, simply because of the characteristics of photography
as a medium. Complicating the critical reading of the images as simply missionary
propaganda, I argue that a volume like the one examined here is best understood
when placed within a transnational (or connected) history of visual practices.

description: 6. Austrophilopterus dimorphus Carriker 1950 (Fig. 14)
Austrophilopterus dimorphus Carriker 1950: 180. Type host: Selenidera spectabilis Cassin. Material. PANAMA: Holotype male, 1 male paratype, Mt. Piri (JHP; 1912).
Remarks. The description of this species was based on a single slide with specimens collected in 1912 by someone other than Carriker. Carriker stated that this slide included the holotype male, allotype female, 1 male paratype, and 1 nymph of this species. The obvious difference between the very small compressed male (see Fig. 14) and the much larger female must have contributed to the species name " dimorphus ". Unfortunately, the female is clearly a contaminant from either Ramphastos or Pteroglossus. The “nymph” is a headless body of some male in poor condition but belonging to the chewing louse suborder Amblycera and again a likely contaminant.
Male. Principal head features and body outline as in Fig. 14. Tergal setae: II, 2; III, 4; IV, 6; V, 6–8; VI, 4; VII, 8; VIII, 6. Sternal setae: II–III, 6; IV, 7; V–VI, 8; VII, 6; VIII, 2. Genitalia distally too distorted for detailed observation, with GL, 0.30. Dimensions: TW, 0.47–0.51; HL, 0.54–0.59; PW, 0.30–0.34; MW, 0.37–0.40; AWV, 0.49; TL, 1.31–1.38.
Female. Unavailable.
Diagnosis. We choose to continue recognition of this as a valid species because the male genitalia are too distorted for study and the details of the abdominal chaetotaxy and structure defy confident interpretation. The quantitative data presented here were difficult to obtain, but they all appear to be in the ranges for A. truncatus. On this same slide is an isolated head, with no sign of the associated body, this head being similar, but somewhat larger, to those of the males. Carriker must have exercised his imagination to the utmost to come up with his Fig. 35 for the male genitalia. Carriker even admitted that the specimens were in poor condition, hairs missing, poorly cleared, with many details not visible. Yet he described this new species from them! Given the history of the specimens on this slide, with obvious contamination from most likely 2 other host taxa, the type host itself may actually be in error. Only additional collecting from S. spectabilis will help answer this question.

description: 7. Austrophilopterus thysi Price and Weckstein, new species (Figs. 15–16)
Type host. Selenidera gouldii (Natterer), Gould’s Toucanet.
Type material. Holotype male, 1 male, 2 female paratypes, BRAZIL: Mato Grosso, W bank Rio Teles Pires, across from mouth of Rio Cristalino, 32 km NE Alta Floresta, 0 9 38'01"S, 55 56'21"W, 8 July 1999 (JDW­222). All specimens deposited in the National Museum of Natural History, Washington, DC.
Male. Terminal abdominal segments as in Fig. 15, dorsal head as in Fig. 16. Tergal setae: II, 3; III–VII, 6; VIII, 4. Sternal setae: II, 6; III, 4–6; IV–VI, 4; VII, 3–4; VIII, 2. Genitalia essentially as in Figs. 11–12, with GL, 0.39–0.41, GPL, 0.035–0.040. Dimensions: TW, 0.51–0.56; HL, 0.54; PW, 0.32–0.33; MW, 0.44–0.47; AWV, 0.58–0.68; TL, 1.54–1.58.
Female. Tergal setae: II, 2; III–IV, 5–6; V, 5; VI, 5–6; VII, 6–7; VIII, 4–5. Sternal setae: II, 6; III, 4–6; IV, 4; V, 4–6; VI, 4–5; VII, 6–7. Dimensions: TW, 0.57–0.60; HL, 0.57–0.59; PW, 0.35–0.36; MW, 0.50–0.51; AWV, 0.69–0.73; TL, 1.83–1.84.
Diagnosis. This species is unique in that it combines the posteriorly rounded dorsoanterior head plate (Fig. 16) of the cancellosus species group with the distinctive genitalic type and other features of the truncatus species group. In spite of this discrepancy of head plate type, A. thysi is placed in this species group because of the similarity of all other features to its members.
Etymology. This species is named for Mathys (“Thys”) J. Meyer, Illinois Natural History Survey, Champaign, in recognition of his deep interest in the intricacies of taxonomic research on both frogs and chewing lice.

description: Genus Neostylopyga Shelford, 1911
Type species: Blatta rhombifolia Stoll, 1813. By subsequent designation.
Notes. The name Neostylopyga was proposed by Shelford (1911b) to replace the preoccupied generic name Stylopyga Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1865.
The genus Neostylopyga includes Blattinae cockroaches with strongly reduced tegmina and wings. The remarkable diversity in structure of the male genitalia gives us an opportunity to assume this genus is artificial and needs to be revised, in particular on base of extensive investigation of the genitalic structures.
The structure of the male genitalia of the type species, N. rhombifolia, resembles Periplaneta americana (Linnaeus, 1758), the type species of the genus Periplaneta Burmeister, 1838 (Anisyutkin 2010).

Peronaemis Waterhouse contains six described species, all from the Greater Antilles, and at least one undescribed species from Hispaniola. The very similar genus Mixochlorus Waterhouse contains three species, one from Hispaniola and two from Central America. Both genera were described in the same paper (Waterhouse 1887) with only a single species in each. Discovery of subsequent species has blurred the distinction between the two taxa, and all of the species in the two genera might best be placed in one genus.
Only two species of Peronaemis, P. monticola Fisher and P. elegans Fisher, both from Cuba, have a broad, even, greenish stripe on the elytron on the two intervals closest to the suture (Mixochlorus elegans Fisher, from Hispaniola, has the sutural region of the elytron green but the coloration is uneven, being expanded slightly in the basal third and more noticeably just beyond the middle). In P. monticola the green sutural area is impressed and has dense microsculpture that obscures the distinction between the two intervals. In P. elegans the green sutural area is not impressed and the distinction between the two intervals is visible. Peronaemis elegans further differs from P. monticola in having the lateral depressions of the pronotum more weakly impressed, the posterior angles of the pronotum with well delineated bright green spots (at least in the female), a relatively well defined dark spot near the middle of each elytron, and in lacking the elongate, impressed cupreous spot at the apical third of each elytron found in P. monticola.
Peronaemis viridithorax Zayas is a synonym of P. monticola Fisher, confirming Bellamy’s (2000) speculation that these two names are synonyms. Fisher (1936) based his description of P. monticola primarily on the female holotype (USNM). His description of the two male paratypes (one in USNM) is brief, and since there is some sexual dichromatism in Peronaemis, perhaps this misled Zayas into thinking his material was a new species. Furthermore, the type locality of P. monticola is Cuba, Oriente Province, Pico Turquino, essentially the same locality as for P. viridithorax.

description: Methane emissions from lakes will increase with climate warming. However, these emissions are not accounted for in the land surface schemes of Global Climate Models (GCMs). Because climate projections depend on future atmospheric CH4 concentrations, the positive feedback loop between CH4 emissions from lakes and climate warming is not simulated. To address this issue, our objective was to develop a modelling approach where an arctic-lake CH4 emission model was forced directly with GCM output (no downscaling) and formulated with parameters that are generally available for lakes within a GCM framework. This will enable future lake-model to GCM coupling. The model was hindcast for 1976-2005 and forecast for 2071-2100. Using observed meteorological forcing, the hindcasts had a cold bias (-0.15 to -0.63 °C) and root-mean-square error (RMSE) of 0.38 to 0.90 °C, relative to observations. The GCM-forced hindcasts had a warm bias (+0.96 to +3.13°C) and RMSE of 1.03 to 3.50 °C. Our CH4 diffusion parameterization was transferable between four Alaskan lakes, after local adjustment of wind drag, but different ebullition parameterizations were required for two deeper lakes versus two shallower lakes. Under three climate scenarios, we simulated lake-bottom water to warm by up to 2.24°C, increasing the simulated CH4 surface flux by 38-129%. However, the limited availability of observed CH4 data renders our results poorly validated. Therefore, our model should be considered as a proof-of-concept pathway toward direct coupling of lake-models to GCMs. Rigorous validation would require additional timeseries observations of areal free-surface diffusive and ebullitive CH4 fluxes from lakes.

(Figs 1 G–I, 2)
Kempiola maindroni Chopard, 1969: 254.
Type locality. India, Coromandel coast, Gangi.
Type material. Holotype: 1 female, India, Coromandel, Gangi, 1901 (M. Maindron) (MNHN-ENSIF2955) (palpi, PI and right PII missing).
Diagnosis. Large species (Fig. 2 A) characterized by the colouration of its face (Fig. 2 C), pronotum (Fig. 2 D, E) and FIII (Fig. 2 H), ovipositor length (15 mm) and shape of copulatory papilla (long, socket-like, with a distinctly bifid dorsal sclerotization, Fig. 1 G, H). Subgenital and supra anal plates as on Fig. 2 F, G. TIII apical spurs as on Fig. 1 I (inner side) and 1J (outer side, here in Arachnomimus nietneri). Measurements, see Chopard 1969 (p. 254).
Remark. Originally described by Chopard in the genus Kempiola, this species differs from K. longipes by its very distinctive copulatory papilla, identical to that of other Arachnomimus species. The other distinctive characters of this last genus (lack of tympanum, male genitalia) cannot be checked with the specimen at hand, but the female genitalia are so characteristic of the genus that generic identity is clear.

Actenodes caray Zayas 1988: 41.
Type locality: CUBA: Oriente Province, Ciudad Mar. Zayas (1988: 41) cited a single specimen. The holotype appears to be a female.
Actenodes caray is a valid species similar to two other Caribbean species that have roundish metallic spots near the middle of the smooth, non-costate elytron. Actenodes auronotata (Laporte & Gory), known from the southeastern U.S. (Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina), the Bahamas, Cuba, and doubtfully Haiti, and A. bellula (Mannerheim), widespread on Hispaniola, both have two nearly adjacent spots just anterior to the middle of the elytron, and one just posterior to the middle. In A. caray there is one spot in the anterior position and one in the posterior, and they are closer together than the anterior and posterior spots in A. auronotata and A. bellula. Also, A. auronotata and A. bellula lack the posterolateral green band found on the elytron of A. caray. A third similar taxon, A. auronotatus var. jamaicensis Fisher, from Jamaica, has much larger green spots and narrow green coloration posteriorly along the lateral margin and suture of the elytron. It should probably be considered a valid taxon at the species level but is still known from only a few specimens.

description: Kempiola Uvarov, 1940
Kempiella Chopard, 1924: 87. Kempiola Uvarov 1940: 175.
Type species. Kempiella longipes Chopard, 1924
Other species included. Kempiola shankari Sinha and Agarwal, 1977 (see Figs 4.5–15 in Gorochov 2003a), Arachnomimus subalatus Chopard, 1970, Kempiola flavipunctatus Desutter-Grandcolas n. sp.
Known distribution. West coast of India, Eastearn India, Assam.
Diagnosis. Fastigium nearly as wide as the scape. Maxillary palpi very long; joint 5 only slightly widened, in apical 5th only, and distinctly longer than joint 3 (Fig. 3 A). Pronotum transverse. TI with a small, inner tympanum (except in K. flavipunctatus Desutter-Grandcolas n. sp.). FIII with a long apical, filiform part. TIII with four pairs of short, subapical spurs; serrulation very sparse (except in K. flavipunctatus Desutter-Grandcolas n. sp.); three inner apical spurs, the median the longest (Fig. 3 B); three outer apical spurs, the median as long or slightly longer than the dorsal (Fig. 3 C). Male. Metanotum and tergites glandular (Fig. 4 C); TIII spurs not modified. FWs short, dorsal and lateral fields separate by a sharp angle (except in K. flavipunctatus Desutter-Grandcolas n. sp.); stridulum complete. Supra anal plate with elongate angles (except in K. flavipunctatus Desutter-Grandcolas n. sp.). Male genitalia: median and lateral processes of pseudepiphallus all elongate (Fig. 3 F, 5B–D). Female. Apterous. Ovipositor shorter than FIII. Female genitalia: Copulatory papilla elongate and very flat, entirely sclerotized (Fig. 3 D–E, G–I).
Remark. Kempiola resembles Arachnomimus morphologically, from which it differs by the inner tympanum, TIII outer apical spurs, male FWs, and male and female genitalia. Its TIII serrulation is also very sparse, except in K. flavipunctatus Desutter-Grandcolas n. sp.
