description: heinrichae spec. nov. (Fig. 5)
Typenmaterial:
Holotypus , R.D. Congo: Mbangi, Canopy Fogging, Fog 2, 23. VI.2009, Old secondary forest, Kongostream Exp.; ISNB.
Verbreitung: DR Kongo.
Wirt: unbekannt.
Unter Material aus dem Institut Royal des Sciences naturelles, Bruxelles, 2009 im Kongo mit Hilfe des Räucherapparates gesammelt, fand ich eine neue Art der Gattung Agachila. Ich möchte sie als Dank für die Anfertigung der Bilder zu den einzelnen Arten nach Vera Heinrich, der Zeichnerin und Fotografin des Museums für Naturkunde, benennen.
Die Art erinnert an Agachila juergeni, ist jedoch mehr gelblich gefärbt als diese, ist etwas grösser und hat einen deutlich breiteren Costalrand. Leider lag mir nur ein Exemplar der neuen Art vor.
Es handelt sich um eine relativ breite und einheitlich gelblich gefärbte Art von ca. 4 mm Länge und 2 mm Breite. Sie ist kenntlich an dem gerundeten Pronotum mit relativ breitem zweireihigem und etwas aufgerichtetem Seitenrand und mit zwei gerundeten Längserhöhungen beiderseits des Mittelkieles. Das Costalfeld der Hemielytren ist vorwiegend drei Maschen breit.
Kopf gelblich, klein mit roten Augen, Wangenplatten bis Ende des Kopfes reichend; Antennen gelb, mit zwei verdickten kurzen Gliedern, einem langen und kurz behaarten 3. Glied und einem schwach verdickten, länger behaarten 4. Glied, Verhältnis der Glieder ist 1,5:1:8:5; Pronotum mit relativ breitem, hinten gerundetem und mehrreihigem Seitenrand, beiderseits des Mittelkieles mit relativ schmalen gerundeten Längserhöhungen von der Halsblase bis Pronotumende reichend, Seitenkiele dann erst sichtbar, Halsblase deutlich gerundet; Hemielytren den Hinterleib überragend, Costalfeld 3-reihig mit deutlichen Maschen, am Ende 1-reihig, Subcostalfeld mit 2-3 kleinen Maschenreihen, Discoidalfeld mit bis zu acht Reihen breit, Suturalfeld relativ lang; Beine gelblich; Unterseite gelblich.

Clathrina clara Klautau & Valentine 2003: 46–47, fig. 39; Veena and Laxmilatha 2011: 2–3, fig.1, 2
Material examined: 1 specimen, ZSI/ANRC–20973, September 15, 2017, Rutland Island (site I), South Andaman, Coll. Preeti Pereira.
Description: Encrusting on the undersurface of rocks shaded from sunlight; the specimen examined comprised a thin network of loosely anastomosed tubes. Water-collecting tubes are present, with raised oscula (0.5 cm high and 1cm wide); specimen colour white when alive and on preservation (Fig. 6A); consistency soft and fragile.
Spicules: The spicules are equiangular and equiradiate triactines in two size categories (Fig. 6B); actines smooth, conical, with sharp ends. Larger triactines (Fig. 6C) measuring 154.8–213.2–275.4 × 21.5–24.9– 31.2 µm, smaller triactines (Fig. 6D) measuring 60.6–97.2–130.1 × 3.3–6.6– 9.2 µm.
Distribution: Clathrina clara is being reported for the first time from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Andaman province. Originally described by Klautau & Valentine (2003) from Christmas Island, Java Transitional province, this species has been known from Vishakapatnam, Bay of Bengal province (Veena & Laxmilatha 2011). Clathrina clara is an Indo-Pacific species and its distribution range is restricted to the Central-west Indo-Pacific realm.
Remarks: At present, Clathrina clara is known only from a single specimen from South Andaman. The specimen reported herein has retained its colour on preservation in isopropyl alcohol as opposed to colour change from white to brown in holotype as noted by Klautau & Valentine (2003).

Material. PIN 5552/48, deposited in PIN. An incomplete crumpled hind wing.
Locality and horizon. Germany: Schandelah. Early Jurassic (early Toarcian, boreale nodule, Harpoceras falciferum ammonite zone).
Description. Hind wing 5.8 mmlong as preserved (estimated completelength ca. 6.2–6.5 mm), 2.3 mmwide aspreserved(estimated completelength ca. 2.5).Preserved portion of costal space relatively broad; broadened distally. Subcostal veinlets mainly oblique; simple or once shallowly forked medially; once to twice forked distally. Subcostal space rather narrow as preserved. Sc, RA stout. RA space narrow, with three preserved crossveins nearly perpendicular to RA (distal slightly oblique). RP with seven branches. RP1–RP3 deeply dichotomously forked; other branches shallowly forked or their terminations not preserved. MA, MP dichotomously forked. CuA pectinate with at least five branches. CuP not completely preserved, probably few branched. Presumed A1, A2 each shallowly forked once (alternatively, A1 dichotomously forked, A2 not preserved). One distal crossvein between presumed A1, A2.
Remarks. The venation of this hind wing is very similar to that of Epigambria longipennis and is clearly distinguished from that of Polyosmylus excelsus by its dichotomously branched M. Judging from its size, this wing might also belong to Rasnitsyneura gen. nov.

Atheta (Halobrecta) madida Bernhauer, 1907: 400. Atheta (Halostiba) madida: Sawada, 1977: 190.
Diagnosis. Adota madida can be recognized by the distinct shape of male tergum 8 (Fig. 8, K: Sawada 1977), the presence of bifurcate microsetae at the apex of male sternum 8 (Fig. 8, G) and by the distinct shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca (Figs. 8, H­L).
Adota madida can be distinguished from the Nearctic species of Adota by slightly concave and almost smooth posterior margin of the male tergum 8 and different shape of the aedeagus and spermatheca.
Distribution. Adota madida is known from Japan (Honshu and Kyushu).

description: Considerable study has already been conducted regarding autonomous driving in modern era. An autonomous driving system must be extremely good at detecting objects surrounding the car to ensure safety. In this paper, classification, and estimation of an object's (pedestrian) position (concerning an ego 3D coordinate system) are studied and the distance between the ego vehicle and the object in the context of autonomous driving is measured. To classify the object, faster Region-based Convolution Neural Network (R-CNN) with inception v2 is utilized. First, a network is trained with customized dataset to estimate the reference position of objects as well as the distance from the vehicle. From camera calibration to computing the distance, cutting-edge technologies of computer vision algorithms in a series of processes are applied to generate a 3D reference point of the region of interest. The foremost step in this process is generating a disparity map using the concept of stereo vision.

Male terminalia. The hypandrium presents a median gonocoxite with a long hypandrial bristle at the end of each side and the lateral gonocoxites are slightly pointed at the extremities (Fig. 1D). In the phallus, the apex of the aedeagus is flattened, strongly sclerotized, and covered with sharp scales (Fig. 1A–C). The aedeagal sheath (Fig. 1A, C, D) is smooth with “pleats” connected to a serrated edge and it presents spicules-like structures in the dorsal region (Fig. 1C). The aedeagal ventral processes are long and curved back. (Fig. 1B, D). The ventral postgonites extend through the ventral region of the aedeagus to its apex (Fig.1B, D). The pregonites are short, with a bristle on each pregonite (Fig. 1B).

Type species: Pinulasma fistulosum Reiswig & Stone, 2013:15 by original designation.
Genus diagnosis. Chonelasmatinae of funnel form with hollow tubular, sometimes branching fistules covering the lateral body surface, produced by crenulate growth at atrial margin. Fistules open to the atrial cavity but in life closed distally by dense network of unfused spicules or open by small parietal oscula; after death fistules also open distally. Primary layer with longitudinally elongate rectangular meshes with transverse-radial connecting beams aligned to form dictyonal lamellae; longitudinal strands present. Thin secondary cortices developed both on dermal and atrial sides with shallow epirhyses but no aporhyses. Dermalia and atrialia are pentactins or pinular hexactins with proximal rays of greatly varying length. Other megascleres include pentactins, regular hexactins, diactins, tauactins, one or two classes of scopules, and uncinates. Microscleres are mainly discohexactins and oxyhexactins or discohexasters and oxyhexasters; rare hemidiscohexasters, hemioxyhexasters or oxyhexactins may occur (Modified from Reiswig & Stone 2013).

description: Magnetic fields, together with cosmic rays (CRs), play an important role in the dynamics and evolution of galaxies, but are difficult to estimate. Energy equipartition between magnetic fields and CRs provides a convenient way to approximate magnetic field strength from radio observations. We present a new approach for calculating the equipartition magnetic field strength based on Bayesian methods. In this approach, the magnetic field is a random variable that is distributed according to a posterior distribution conditional on synchrotron emission and the size of the emitting region. It allows the direct application of the general formulas for total and polarized synchrotron radiation without the need to invert these formulas, which has limited the equipartition method to highly simplified cases. We have derived the equipartition condition for the case of different low-energy breaks, slopes, and high-energy cutoffs of power law spectra of the CR proton and electron distributions. The derived formalism was applied in the general case of a magnetic field consisting of both uniform and randomly oriented field components. The applied Bayesian approach naturally provides the uncertainties in the estimated magnetic field strengths resulting from the uncertainties in the observables and the assumed values of the unknown physical parameters. In the examples presented, we used two different Markov Chain Monte Carlo methods to generate the posterior distribution of the magnetic field. We have also developed a web application called BMAG that implements the described approach for different models and observational parameters of real sources.

description: Ophiolepis Müller & Troschel, 1840
Type species: Ophiolepis superba H. L. Clark, 1915 (see Pineda-Enríquez et al. (in press) for background of this name)
Diagnosis. Arms 5 in number, not branching; disc covered by scales; larger disc scales surrounded by smaller scales on aboral surface; lacking arm combs; 2nd tentacle pore opening inside of oral slits; supplementary arm plates beside laterally to each dorsal and sometimes ventral arm plates.
Remarks. Ophiolepis is morphologically related to Ophiozonella (Stöhr 2011). These genera were previously in the family Ophiolepididae; Ophiozonella was polyphyletic and split across Ophiolepididae and Hemieuryaldae Verrill, 1899 as a result of a molecular phylogenomic study (O’Hara et al. 2017). Ophiozonella species with 1 or 2 arm spines were in the Hemieuryalidae and species with more than 3 arm spines were in the Ophiolepididae. Ophiozonella cavernalis n. sp. should belong to the latter family because it has 3 arm spines (Fig. 9A, B, D, E, G, H). Ophiozonella longispina (H. L. Clark, 1908), which is the type species of Ophiozonella, was included in the Hemieuryalidae (O’Hara et al. 2017), therefore a new genus should be established for the Ophiozonella species in the Ophiolepididae, with more than 3 arm spines. However, we refrain from establishing the new genus because we did not take into account all species of Ophiozonella in this study and any DNA sequences of O. cavernalis n. sp. have not obtained. In this study, we refer the Ophiozonella of Ophiolepididae to Ophiozonella s. str.
For the purposes of this study, we compare and contrast Ophiolepis and Ophiozonella s. str. in terms of morphology. Main taxonomic characters of Ophiolepis and Ophiozonella s. str. are as follows: On the aboral disc surface, larger scales are surrounded by smaller scales in Ophiolepis, while the disc scales of Ophiozonella s. str. are almost uniform in size. Ophiolepis has supplementary plates on the lateral side of the dorsal plates, whereas Ophiozonella s. str. lacks the supplementary plates (e.g. Fell 1960). However, the value of these characters has been questioned because specimens with variations of these characters have been observed in both genera (e.g. Devaney 1974; Cherbonnier & Guille 1978; Stöhr 2011).
In this study, we define Ophiolepis as follows: two supplementary plates lateral to each dorsal arm plate; larger disc scales are regularly surrounded by smaller ones on aboral surface.

Crematogaster modiglianii

description: Crematogaster modiglianii
Crematogaster modiglianii has a widespread distribution in South-East Asia, but does not occur in Java, while another widespread species, C. seaeardi, occurs also in Java. What could explain the absence of C. modiglianii on Java? Menzel & Blüthgen (2010) revealed parabiotic associations between C. modiglianii and Camponotus (Myrmotarsus) rufifemur Emery, 1900. Camponotus rufifemur is known from the Indochinese Peninsula, Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra and Philippines, but not distributed in Java (Antmaps, 2021; AntWiki, 2021). The close relationship might have affected the absence of C. modiglianii in Java. Alternately, Java has a different climate from the other islands on the Sunda Shelf (Wilting et al., 2012). The climate of Java is drier than in other parts of the Sunda Shelf (Heaney, 1991). Veron et al. (2007) suggested that open and drier habitat in Java at the time might have affected the species distribution of the mongoose Herpestes species. Land bridges connecting the Sundaic regions might have allowed for the migration of C. modiglianii, but the species did not successfully colonize, probably due to ecological competition with related taxa.

Diagnosis. Arms 5 in number, not branching; disc covered by scales of uniform size; lacking arm combs; 2nd tentacle pore opening inside of oral slits; No supplementary plates lateral to each dorsal arm plate; 3 arm spines.
Remarks. The genus Ophiozonella s. str. can be distinguished from the related genus Ophiolepis by the absence of supplementary small plates on the lateral side of the dorsal arm plates, and by having disc scales of uniform size on the aboral side.
Most species of Ophiozonella s. a. have been reported from depths in excess of 100 m (e.g. Stöhr 2011). In Japan, Ophiozonalle bispinosa (Koehler, 1897), O. longispina, O. oedilepis (Murakami, 1942), O. platydisca (H. L. Clark, 1911), O. polyplex (H. L. Clark, 1911) and O. projecta (Koehler, 1905) have been recorded from> 80 m depth (Okanishi 2016). In this study, Ophiozonella cavernalis n. sp. is recorded at the shallowest depth (12 m), which extends the shallowest record of Japanese Ophiozonella s. a.

description: The Crematogaster Ʋacca-subgroup
The phylogenetic relationship between the C. Ʋaccasubgroup and their ancestral state reconstruction suggests that their common ancestor occurred in the Sundaic region and its founder dispersed to Sumatra (Fig. 4). During glacial periods, the populations (C. yamanei) retracted into glacial forest refugia. When environmental conditions became favourable for expansion, the populations recolonized, but in the Sundaic region they were restricted to higher elevation areas due to competition with the C. inflata -subgroup and the C. difformis -subgroup, which were already present in this area at lower elevations.
Crematogaster yamanei is endemic to Sumatra, but closely related to C. Ʋacca, which is distributed in the Malay Peninsula and Borneo. Meijaard’s (2004) mammal studies suggested that Sumatra shares elements of its fauna with both the Bornean/Javan and Malayan regions as a result of secondary contact. Those patterns are found in the younger taxon C. yamanei, but not in the older taxon C. mucronata. The restricted distributions of C. mucronata and C. yamanei could have resulted from another speciation event and extirpation of the relatives, respectively.
