Specimens examined: 188 including holotypes of Canidia spinicornis Bates and Pseudocanidia cuernavacae Dillon, and 3 paratypes of the latter. Found in south­central Mexico (Map 1).
Remarks: Among the Canidia species having a rounded apical process on the scape, C. spinicornis is easily recognizable by the parallel­sided pronotum that is finely and densely punctate with the punctures being much smaller than those at the base of the elytra, the contrasting white and brown vittate pattern of the pronotum, and the mottled appendages. Although Dillon noted the existence of Bates’ spinicornis, he misinterpreted the original description and did not include this species in his revision.

description: Pterygosoma patagonica Dittmar de la Cruz, Morando and Avila 2004
Pterygosoma patagonica Dittmar de la Cruz, Morando and Avila 2004: 1, figs. 1–5.
This species was insufficiently described from six species of Liolaemus spp. from various provinces of Argentina (Dittmar de la Cruz et al. 2004). The type series (syntypes) includes five males (!all are designated as holotypes) and 5 females without providing data about their exact localities (only provinces and host species were listed separately). These specimens were deposited at the Insect Genomics Lab, at Brigham Young University but are lost now (Dittmar de la Cruz, personal communication). The figures provided in the original description of P. patagonica do not allow to differ it clearly from other species of the ligare group while they contain enough details to determine this species as a member of this group. In addition, the documentation provided by Dittmar de la Cruz et al. (2004) makes impossible to associate this species with determine host or locality. As the present work demonstrates, three liolaemids are associated with several Pterygosoma spp. (more than one mite species could be recorded from a particular host) and new records from the Argentinian hosts would not be referred to P. patagonica based solely on the original description of this species. For these reasons, we propose to consider this species as nomen dubium and hope that the type series of this species would be finally found.

Medog is referred as the "Secret Land of Lotus Flowers" in the Zang language, and is renowned for its rich biodiversity.
Diagnosis. The new species resembles Chrysilla acerosa Wang & Zhang, 2012 in the elongated and slender embolus (see Wang & Zhang 2012: 66, figs 4, 5, 13, 14; Figs 22–27), but differs by the presence of a lamellar tegular process (LP) at the base of the embolus of the male palp (Figs 23, 26; vs. LP absent in C. acerosa), and the long RTA (Figs 23, 24, 26, 27; vs. RTA in C. acerosa wide with a sharp ventral tip).
Description. Male. Habitus as in Figs 14–19. Measurements of holotype: carapace 2.23 long, 1.71 wide, abdomen 4.15 long, 1.06 wide; eye measurements: AME 0.52, ALE 0.29, PME 0.13, PLE 0.27; leg measurements: Ⅰ 5.79 (1.74, 0.69, 1.59, 1.05, 0.72), II 4.51 (1.42, 0.65, 1.08, 0.80, 0.56), III 5.10 (1.56, 0.54, 1.25, 1.15, 0.60), IV 6.07 (1.77, 0.58, 1.61, 1.47, 0.64); leg formula 4132. Carapace, abdomen and leg I covered with various iridescent scales, virtually transparent scales on other appendages (Figs 14–19). Chelicerae brown, with two promarginal and one retromarginal teeth (Fig. 21). Abdomen slim (Figs 14–19).
Palp (Figs 22–27): embolus elongated, base with lamellar tegular process (Figs 23, 26); cymbium longer than wide (Figs 22–27); RTA dagger-like in retrolateral view (Figs 24, 27).
Female. Unknown.

Multidisciplinary Use of Earth Science Data: An Analysis of OPeNDAP Users

description: One of the biggest challenges for open science data initiatives is identifying who is using data and for what. Without this information, it is difficult to understand the impact of scientific data and how to serve users better. As such, many assumptions and unknowns exist around Earth Science data use. 

 

The goal of this presentation is to share about OPeNDAP’s approach to learn more about its users. Such information can be used by other technical science-supporting organizations that seek to design their own user research programs, thereby improving their services and societal impact

 

OPeNDAP, a nonprofit organization that hosts a protocol and open source software that enables users to access large Earth Science datasets, initiated a User Research program in 2023. They continue to learn about users by: 

Interviewing people in-person at domain-relevant conferences, workshops, and conventions. 

Analyzing emails that are sent to OPeNDAP’s support email address. 

Implementing a new structured online survey for collecting voluntary data. 

Using Google analytics to collect data about visitors of various OPeNDAP-supported websites. 

Before doing this work, we assumed that most OPeNDAP users were US-based, senior academics and researchers representing universities and governmental agencies, and doing mostly Earth science research. 

Our research results confirm that most OPeNDAP users are based in the US. However, the majority of people visiting OPeNDAP-supported websites are located internationally (70%). Many OPeNDAP users are mid-career and early career, indicating that OPeNDAP use is being perpetuated among new professionals. Inquirers do often represent mostly Universities, Federal Agencies, and National labs/Research centers, but the private sector was better represented than expected. Domain areas of inquirers included a much broader range than expected, including data applications for sustainable fisheries, maritime and shipping operations, pest and risk management, national security, and town administration.

OPeNDAP’s User Research program provides the organization with valuable information about its users. Such information helps OPeNDAP better understand how its services and provided data are used in broader society, and make strategic decisions about new software features and business opportunities.

Pediculaster paucisetosus Sevastianov and Chydyrov, 1991: 136, fig. 1 syn. nov.
Khaustov & Chydyrov (2003) described the monobasic genus Asiapygmephorus Khaustov and Chydyrov, 2003 with the type species Pediculaster paucisetosus Sevastianov and Chydyrov, 1991 from Turkmenistan and redescribed females of P. paucisetosus. Earlier Sevastianov & Zahida Al Douri (1991) described the monotypic genus Mesopotamiophorus Sevastianov and Zahida Al Douri, 1991 with the type species Mesopotamiophorus babylonicus Sevastianov and Zahida Al Douri, 1991 from Iraq. My examination of the holotype of Mesopotamiophorus babylonicus Sevastianov and Zahida Al Douri, 1991 revealed conspecificity of M. babylonicus and Asiapygmephorus paucisetosus. Therefore I consider the genus Asiapygmephorus syn. nov. as a junior synonym of Mesopotamiophorus and Asiapygmephorus paucisetosus syn. nov. as a junior synonym of Mesopotamiophorus babylonicus.

Sevastianov et al. (1994) described Pediculaster petrovanikitinae Sevastianot, Chydyrov and Marroch, 1994 from fly Fannia sp. (Diptera: Fannidae) from the Far East of Russia. My examination of phoretic female holotype of P. petrovanikitinae revealed its conspecificity with P. athiasae (Wicht, 1970) redescribed by Martin (1978). Therefore I consider P. petrovanikitinae syn. nov. as a junior synonym of P. athiasae.
Material examined. Phoretic female holotype of Pediculaster petrovanikitinae Sevastianot, Chydyrov and Marroch, 1994, RUSSIA: Amur Reg., on Fannia sp. (Diptera: Fannidae), 26 June 1982, coll. Basykhyn.
Remarks. Pediculaster athiasae is very similar to the recently redescribed P. sterculinicola Sevastianov, 1981 (Khaustov 2008a) and differs only by longer and well sclerotized apodemes 5. It is possible that this character is age dependent and thus P. sterculinicola could be conspecific with P. athiasae. However, the additional study of character variability in the genus Pediculaster is required.

Sevastianov & Abo-Korah (1984) described Pediculaster amerahae Sevastianov and Abo-Korah, 1984 from Egypt. Later, Sevastianov et al. (1994) described Pediculaster crassipedis Sevastianov and Chydyrov, 1994 from Turkmenistan. I examined holotypes of both species and revealed their conspecificity. Therefore I consider P. c r a s - sipedis syn. nov. as a junior synonym of P. amerahae.
Remarks. Pediculaster crassipedis was described with some inaccuracies. In the original description of this species setae ps 1 and ps 2 are short, subequal but much shorter than ps 3; in fact setae ps 2 are much longer than short ps 1 and ps 3. Besides, in the original description setae v 1 are said to be situated anteromedially to the stigmata, while in fact they are situated just lateral to the stigmata. The redescription of P. amerahae based on the type specimens and new material of this species from Iran is now being in preparation by Dr H. R. Hajiqanbar (Tarbiat Modares University, Tehran, Iran) and will be described elsewhere.

Later, Sevastianov & Abo-Korah (1984) described Siteroptes tameri Sevastianov and Abo-Korah, 1984 from soil in Ukraine. My examination of holotypes of both species revealed their conspecificity. Therefore I consider S. tameri syn. nov. as a junior synonym of S. graminicola.
Material examined. Female holotype of S. graminicola Mitrofanov, Shabanova and Sevastianov, 1984, slide 3555/1, RUSSIA: vicinity of Saratov, on barley, 30 July 1981, coll. N.F. Shabanova; female holotype of S. tameri Sevastianov and Abo-Korah, 1984, slide Е-З 42, UKRAINE, vicinity of Odessa, soil under wheat, collector unknown.
Remarks. Livshits et al. (1986) placed S. tameri in the subgenus Allositeroptes Livshits, Mitrofanov and Sharonov, 1986 of the genus Siteroptes. However, it should be excluded from this subgenus, since it has no setae 4 a (present in Allositeroptes), whereas setae 4 c are present (absent in Allositeroptes), and the body is characteristically long and thin, more than two times longer than its width (not so long in Allositeroptes). Females of S. graminicola have two setae on trochanter IV (v’ and probably v”). It is unique character for this species and not found in other representatives of Tarsonemina and known only in the sister group Tarsocheylina (Lindquist 1987).

description: Genus Tricephalopora Lang, 1916
Revised diagnosis. Zooids with typically paired adventitious avicularia lateral to orifice, these often extending across its margin at a variable position and contributing to the formation of the peristomial rim, or projecting into the secondary orifice and affecting its shape. Frontal shield visible only medially as peripheral area surrounded and covered by thick skeletal calcification associated with interzoooidal kenozooids; costae lacking intercostal bridge and separated by a single, large, intercostal pore; raised peristomial rim formed by a band of calcification seemingly partially derived from kenozooids.
Type species. Cribrilina triceps Marsson, 1887.
Remarks. The genus Tricephalopora shows affinities with Gephyrotes in general aspect, particularly in the raised, collar-like peristomial structure and the highly developed kenozooidal network. However, the peristomial constructions are formed differently in the two genera—they result from kenozooidal secondary calcification in Tricephalopora but from the bifurcation of the distalmost pair of costae in Gephyrotes. Further differences are seen also in the degree of kenozooidal development. In Tricephalopora, kenozooids are responsible for a massive spread of secondary calcification, lacking frontal openings, that covers much of the zooidal frontal shield, leaving only a reduced window exposed, whereas kenozooids in Gephyrotes are strictly interzooidal, and narrow and tubular with numerous openings. Their overall general similarity caused the inclusion in Gephyrotes of several species that better conform to Tricephalopora. Taylor & McKinney (2006) first transferred Gephyrotes lamellaria Canu & Bassler, 1926 to Tricephalopora, and further species are here assigned to this genus.
Distribution. Coniacian–Thanetian of Europe and North America (Fig. 1).

Peleng Tarsier
Tarsius pelengensis
French: Tarsier de Peleng / German: Peleng-Koboldmaki / Spanish: Tarsero de Peleng
Other common names: Peleng Island Tarsier
Taxonomy. Tarsius fuscus pelengensis Sody, 1949,
Indonesia, Peleng Island.
This species appears to be morphologically distinct, while acoustically it shows many superficial similarities with T. dentatus and might be closely related to it. Acoustics, although similar, are distinctive. Monotypic.
Distribution. Peleng I, off the coast of the E peninsula of Sulawesi; there are unconfirmed reports of tarsiers occurring on other islands in the Banggai Archipelago, which may be this species.
Descriptive notes. Head-body 12-14 cm,tail 25-27 cm. No specific data are available for body weight. The Peleng Tarsier is known morphologically from museum specimens only, it is a relatively large form with a dark brown coat and contrasting creamytipped thighs. There is a vague black nose spot. The tail is long and thinly furred along c.40% ofits length.
Habitat. Primary and secondary lowland rainforest and mangrove forest to 520 m above sea level.
Food and Feeding. The Peleng Tarsier is presumed to eat mainly moths and crickets, along with small vertebrates such as frogs and lizards.
Breeding. There is no information available for this species.
Activity patterns. There is no specific information available for this species, butitis nocturnal and arboreal.
Movements, Home range and Social organization. The Peleng Tarsier has never been studied in the wild, but it probably lives in small monogamous or polygamous groups of 2-6 individuals. The home range is believed to be less than 1 ha.
Status and Conservation. CITES Appendix II. Classified as Endangered on The IUCN Red List. The distribution of the Peleng Tarsier covers ¢.1925 km?, butits area of occupancy is considerably less than that. It is greatly threatened by loss of habitat. Less than 10% of the island has suitable habitat for tarsiers, and it may be necessary to reassess their conservation status. There are no protected areas on Pulau Peleng.

Type species: Phlugiolopsis henryi Zeuner, 1940
Generic diagnosis. Body small. Micropterous. Head hypognathous. Fastigium verticis conical, apex obtuse, furrowed in midline. Eyes subglobular, protruding forwards or outwards. Apical segment of maxillary palpi slightly enlarged. Dorsum of head usually with 4 brown or black brown stripes. Anterior margin of pronotum slightly straight, posterior margin protruding backwards, lateral lobe longer than high, without humeral sinus. Ventral margins of all femora unarmed; procoxa with 1 spine, pro- and mesotibia with some spines on ventral margin, tibial tympana of protibia opened on both sides; genicular lobes of postfemur with apices obtuse, posttibia with 1 pair of dorsal apical spurs and 2 pairs of ventral apical spurs. Tegmina short, reaching or slightly surpassing posterior margin of pronotum, female tegmina overlaping. Hind wings absent. Male cerci variable, genitalia membranous; subgenital plate narrowing, subapex with styli on ventral margin. Female subgenital plate wider than long. Ovipositor short, slightly curved upwards, basal part stout, apices of dorsal valvulae sharply pointed, apices of ventral ones with a small distinct or indistnct terminal hook. Body usually black brown.
Discussion. Yamasaki (1986) thought Phlugiolopsis yaeyamensis from the Ryukyu Islands is closely related to Xiphidiopsis minutus from Lushan (Guling), Jiangxi, China, and inferred that the true distributional area of the genus Phlugiolupsis is in the Indo-Chinese subregion of the Oriental Region, including the Ryukyus. Meanwhile, he deduced that P. henryi may also derived from the subregion.
