Type locality. Russia, Astrakhan’ Region, Staryi Tuzukley settlement.
Type specimens. ZIN. The type specimens included 12 syntypes (females only), now only ten of them (eight slides) remain in the collection.
Type host. Arvicola terrestris (L., 1758), the European water vole.
Host range. This species is a predatory mite with a weak tendency towards hematophagy (Goncharova et al., 1991). It has been collected from a wide spectrum of rodents and insectivores (mainly from their burrows) and birds (from nests). Eu. kolpakovae does not demonstrate a specific relationship with any particular species of mammal hosts (Goncharova et al., 1991).
Distribution. Southern part of Eastern Europe, the Urals, Central Asia, southern Siberia and the Russian Far East. Its distribution in Asiatic Russia roughly coincides with that of Eu. cricetuli (Nikulina, 2004).
Remarks. Evans & Till (1966) proposed to synonymise Eulaelaps kolpakovae with Eu. novus Vitzthum, 1925. This opinion was accepted by Karg (1971), Haitlinger (1988) and Mašán & Fend’a (2010), among others. However, Senotrusova (1976, 1987) and Goncharova et al. (1991) provided additional morphological evidence in favour Eu. kolpakovae as a separate species. Mašán & Fend’a (2010), in their discussion of the taxonomic position of Eu. kolpakovae, did not consider these arguments. Senotrusova (1976, 1987) believes that Eu. novus is merely an intraspecific form of Eu. stabularis. According to Strandtmann & Wharton (1958), Vitzthum, the author of the species Eu. novus, also assumed that this taxon may represent ‘a small form of stabularis ’. Thus, the taxonomic status of these two species needs a new revision. Sludsky (2014) listed Eu. kolpakovae among mite species able to harbour Yersinia pestis – the causative agent of the plague.

description: Machine-type communications (MTC) are crucial in the evolution of mobile communication systems. Within this context, we distinguish the so-called massive MTC (mMTC), where a large number of devices coexist in the same geographical area. In the case of sensors, a high correlation in the collected information is expected. In this letter, we evaluate the impact of correlation on the entropy of a set of quantized Gaussian sources. This model allows us to express the sensed data with the data correlation matrix. Given the nature of mMTC, these matrices may be well approximated as rank deficient. Accordingly, we exploit this singularity to design a technique for switching off several sensors that maximizes the entropy under power-related constraints. The discrete optimization problem is transformed into a convex formulation that can be solved numerically.

Comments
Historically, Notioceramus anomalus was considered monotypic and was known only from relatively shallow waters, 73–1120 m. Further records of N. anomalus from Mah (2011) extended known occurrence to the Chilean waters, the Scotia Sea and Antarctic waters adjacent to the peninsula. Frayasse et al. (2018) further recorded this species from Burdwood Bank in the South Atlantic. Ruiz (2016) recorded N. anomalus from the Bellinghausen Sea. These latter two accounts are reported but specimens have not been verified. No reports of Notioceramus anomalus from the Ross Sea could be located.
Notioceramus anomalus displays much rounder and larger granulation as well as a more strongly developed skeleton relative to the deeper-water species described herein, especially Notioceramus abyssalis n. sp.
Diagnosis (emended based on Mah 2011)
Body stout, stellate species (R/r=1.8–2.1). Arms short, triangular. Disk thickened. Abactinal plates flattened, tightly abutted forming parchment-like disk surface, covered by dense continuous cover of granules, coarse, round, approximately 2–9 per plate, obscuring plate boundaries. Marginal plates 30–34 per interradius. Plates covered by further coarse, round granules identical to those on abactinal surface. Granules forming part of thickened edge on marginal plates along actinolateral boundary where inferomarginals meet actinal plates.
Actinal surface covered by round, coarse granules, 2–9, similar but slightly larger than those abactinal, marginal plate surface. Furrow spines 2–3, mostly 2, oval to quadrate in cross section. Subambulacral spines 1–2, thickened, quadrate in cross-section.
Occurrence
Off Valdivia, Chile, Tierra Del Fuego region, Trinity Peninsula, South Shetland Islands, Bransfield Strait, South Georgia Island, Scotia Sea. 73–1120 m.

Approximations of the Aggregated Interference Statistics for Outage Analysis in Massive MTC

description: This paper presents several analytic closed-form approximations of the aggregated interference statistics within the framework of uplink massive machine-type communications (mMTC), taking into account the random activity of the sensors. Given its discrete nature and the large number of devices involved, a continuous approximation based on the Gram--Charlier series expansion of a truncated Gaussian kernel is proposed. We use this approximation to derive an analytic closed-form expression for the outage probability, corresponding to the event of the signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio being below a detection threshold. This metric is useful since it can be used for evaluating the performance of mMTC systems. We analyze, as an illustrative application of the previous approximation, a scenario with several multi-antenna collector nodes, each equipped with a set of predefined spatial beams. We consider two setups, namely single- and multiple-resource, in reference to the number of resources that are allocated to each beam. A graph-based approach that minimizes the average outage probability, and that is based on the statistics approximation, is used as allocation strategy. Finally, we describe an access protocol where the resource identifiers are broadcast (distributed) through the beams. Numerical simulations prove the accuracy of the approximations and the benefits of the allocation strategy.

Type locality. Germany (without exact locality).
Type specimens. Type status and location unknown.
Type host. None. Koch (1839: 1–2) described Gamasus stabularis as a free-living mite living in stables, kennels and similar habitats.
Host range. The list of mammals species parasitised by this mite is very wide. It includes more than 40 host taxa (Allred, 1969; Whitaker & Wilson, 1974; Whitaker et al., 2007). No principal host species can be identified for this opportunistic mite. Turk (1945: 135) characterised it as “the commonnest species of acari to be found in the nests and on the bodies of small rodents and insectivores”. Goncharova et al. (1991) state that Eu. stabularis is much more abundant in mammals’ nests than on their bodies.
Distribution. Almost cosmopolitan. In Asiatic Russia it is distributed throughout the region; the northern border of its distribution in Siberia coincides with the boundary of the forest-tundra zone (Goncharova et al., 1991). Eulaelaps stabularis was re-described by Uchikawa & Rack (1979).

description: In this paper functions $f:D\to\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the inequality \[
 f\Big(\frac{x+y}{2}\Big)\leq\frac12f(x)+\frac12f(y)
 +φ\Big(\frac{x-y}{2}\Big) \qquad(x,y\in D) \] are studied, where $D$ is a nonempty convex subset of a real linear space $X$ and $φ:\{\frac12(x-y) : x,y \in D\}\to\mathbb{R}$ is a so-called error function. In this situation $f$ is said to be $φ$-Jensen convex. The main results show that for all $φ$-Jensen convex function $f:D\to\mathbb{R}$, for all rational $λ\in[0,1]$ and $x,y\in D$, the following inequality holds \[
 f(λx+(1-λ)y)
 \leq λf(x)+(1-λ)f(y)+\sum_{k=0}^\infty
 \frac{1}{2^k}φ\big(\mbox{dist}(2^kλ,\mathbb{Z})\cdot(x-y)\big). \] The infinite series on the right hand side is always convergent, moreover, for all rational $λ\in[0,1]$, it can be evaluated as a finite sum.

NOVA SCOTIA: 119 specimens examined from Annapolis, Colchester, Cumberland, Guysborough, Halifax, Hants, Lunenburg, Pictou, Queens, and Victoria counties. The earliest records are from 1965 (Lunenburg Co.: Lunenburg, 19.vi.1965, B. Wright, NSMC; Lunenburg, 20.vi.1965, NSNR, 2 specimens, NSMC; Lunenburg, 30.vi.1965, B. Wright, 4 specimens, NSMC). Colchester Co.: Truro, July 26, 19 xx, R. Matheson, Liljeblad (1945). PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND: Queens Co.: St. Patricks, 25.vi.2003, C.G. Majka, CGMC.
Newly recorded in Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island. Although Liljeblad (1945) indicated a specimen from Nova Scotia (above) this record appears to have escaped the attention of LeSage (1991d) and the species was not included in the Nova Scotia fauna. Larvae of Anaspis occur under loose tree bark (Hatch 1965). In Nova Scotia, found only in coniferous (Picea rubens, P. mariana, Tsuga canadensis, Pinus strobus, and Abies balsamaea) forests.

Type species: Haemogamasus hirsutus Berlese, 1889.
General morphological diagnosis: see Kim et al. (1987), Mašán & Fend’a (2010: 71).
Remarks. The genus was established by Berlese (1889) to include the single species, Hg. hirsutus from the European mole (Fig. 1). This species has not been found in Asiatic Russia although numerous recordings of Hg. hirsutus from the European part of the former USSR are known (Nikulina, 2004). The most important taxonomic works on the genus are those by Vitzthum (1930), Bregetova (1949, 1956a), Keegan (1951), Evans & Till (1966), Allred (1969), Williams et al. (1978), Haitlinger (1988), and Lundquist (1990). The species of the genus were thought to inhabit all continents, except South America (Bregetova, 1956a; Williams et al., 1978; Lundquist, 1990), but later records of Haemogamasus from Argentina and Chile have now been published (Mosquera, 1988; Casanueva et al., 1994; Herrin & Sage, 2012). The genus includes about 60 species, 12 of which have been recorded in Europe (Mašán & Fend’a, 2010) and nearly 30 species in the former USSR (Senotrusova, 1987; Goncharova et al., 1991). One of these species, Hg. pontiger (Berlese, 1904), is of almost cosmopolitan distribution, being recorded from the Old World, the Americas, Antarctica and Australia (Lundquist, 1990; Halliday, 2011). Ecologically, most species of Haemogamasus are parasites of small mammals and abundant in their hosts’ nests and shelters (Balashov, 2009). In general, these mites are opportunistic parasites able to exploit a wide range of host species (Bregetova, 1949); some of them were collected also from birds and birds’ nests (Haitlinger, 1988; Gwaizdowicz et al., 2006). Strict host specificity in the genus is rarely observed (Bregetova & Nel’zina, 1952). Some taxa (Hg. pontiger) are regarded as predators (Halliday, 2011), and their relationships with Micromammalia are rather indirect. The role of different Haemogamasus species as vectors of viruses and other pathogenic microorganisms has been elucidated by many authors (Zemskaya, 1973; Yakimenko et al., 2000; Valiente Moro et al., 2005; Žákovská et al., 2008; Mi’tkova et al., 2015).

description: Controlling corruption necessitates collaboration between service providers and recipients, as emphasized by the co-creation theory. In this context, e-participation has emerged as a promising avenue for fostering collaboration through online platforms in the ongoing battle against corruption. This research relies on national-level data obtained from the World Bank, Transparency International, and the United Nations to investigate the relationship between e-participation and the control of corruption. Through a comprehensive data analysis involving 136 countries over a five biennial period from 2012 to 2020, the results reveal no statistically significant correlation between e-participation and corruption control. This finding raises pertinent questions about the effectiveness of current e-participation approaches, or the measurements employed to evaluate their impact on combating corruption. The implications of this finding are significant for policymakers and governance monitoring bodies, underscoring the need for a re-evaluation and enhancement of existing e-participation mechanisms and anti-corruption strategies within the co-creation framework.

description: Communication security has to evolve to a higher plane in the face of the threat from the massive computing power of the emerging quantum computers. Quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) constitutes a promising branch of quantum communication, which is provably secure and overcomes the threat of quantum computing, whilst conveying secret messages directly via the quantum channel. In this survey, we highlight the motivation and the status of QSDC research with special emphasis on its theoretical basis and experimental verification. We will detail the associated point-to-point communication protocols and show how information is protected and transmitted. Finally, we discuss the open challenges as well as the future trends of QSDC networks, emphasizing again that QSDC is not a pure quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol, but a fully-fledged secure communication scheme.

description: Protein folding, which dictates the protein structure from its amino acid sequence, is half a century old problem of biology. The function of the protein correlates with its structure, emphasizing the need of understanding protein folding for studying the cellular and molecular mechanisms that occur within biological systems. Understanding protein structures and enzymes plays a critical role in target based drug designing, elucidating protein-related disease mechanisms, and innovating novel enzymes. While recent advancements in AI based protein structure prediction methods have solved the protein folding problem to an extent, their precision in determining the structure of the protein with low sequence similarity is limited. Classical methods face challenges in generating extensive conformational samplings, making quantum-based approaches advantageous for solving protein folding problems. In this work we developed a novel turn based encoding algorithm that can be run on a gate based quantum computer for predicting the structure of smaller protein sequences using the HP model as an initial framework, which can be extrapolated in its application to larger and more intricate protein systems in future. The HP model best represents a major step in protein folding phenomena - the hydrophobic collapse which brings the hydrophobic amino acid to the interior of a protein. The folding problem is cast in a 3D cubic lattice with degrees of freedom along edges parallel to the orthogonal axes, as well as along diagonals parallel to the axial planes. While, the original formulation with higher order terms can be run on gate based quantum hardwares, the QUBO formulation can give results on both classical softwares employing annealers and IBM CPLEX as well as quantum hardwares.
