Pachylaelaps alpinus Willmann, 1953: 459.
Onchodellus alpinus.— Mašán, 2007: 136; Mašán & Halliday, 2014: 12.
Habitat preference in Iran. Soil, leaf-litter, and honeybee hives.
Provincial distribution in Iran. Guilan, Mazandaran, and Tehran (Rahmani et al., 2006, published as Pachylaelaps alpinus Willmann, 1953; Ahangaran et al., 2012; Mojahed et al., 2017).
World distribution. Asia (Iran) (Mojahed et al., 2017), Europe (Central Europe, Alps area, Austria, Finland, and Slovakia) (Karg, 1971, 1993; Mašán, 2007; Mašán & Mihál, 2009; Mašán & Halliday, 2014; Huhta, 2016).
Notes. Ahangaran et al. (2012) reported a species, namely Onchodellus cf. alpinus, based on insufficient description and figures of female specimens, in which all the mentioned morphological characteristics were similar to O. alpinus based on the description prepared by Mašán (2007), but they did not consider any differences between these two species. Therefore, here we considered it as O. alpinus. They found it at the altitude of 1,410 m a.s.l. This euryhygrophilous edaphic detriticole mite has a wide ecological plasticity and can be found in both woodland and non-woodland landscapes, but shows obvious preference for deciduous forest habitats mostly with broad-leaved trees (Mašán, 2007; Mašán & Mihál, 2009). Also, it was found in sea shore soil, meadows, dry meadows, compost, moss, detritus, and dung (Karg, 1993; Huhta et al., 2010). Although Costa (1971) found Onchodellus alpinus in nests of a mole-rat species and other sites, at the altitude of 1,600 m a.s.l., Mašán & Halliday (2014) considered it as Onchodellus sp., not O. alpinus.

Habitat preference in Iran. Soil.
Provincial distribution in Iran. Isfahan (Jalaeian et al., 2004, published as Pachylaelaps costai Hirschmann & Krauss, 1965).
World distribution. Asia (Iran and Israel) (Costa, 1963, 1971; Koroleva, 1977b; Jalaeian et al., 2004), Europe (Southern Europe, Georgia, Italy, Kazakhstan, Spain, Tajikistan, and Ukraine) (Berlese, 1920b; Koroleva, 1977b; Mašán, 2007; Mašán & Halliday, 2014).
Notes. Regarding this species, here we considered all the ecological data of the species O. hispani for O. anovillosus, which had been presented and misidentified by Costa (1963, 1966, 1971) and Koroleva (1977b), based on Mašán (2007) and Mašán & Halliday (2014). Costa (1963, 1971) found O. anovillosus in a large number on the bodies of and in association with adult specimens of Copris hispanus. Costa (1966) observed it feeding on the nematode Panagrellus sp. under laboratory conditions. Koroleva (1977b) found it in forest litter, on Copris sp., C. hispanus, and the Turkestan termite, Anacanthotermes turkestanicus Jacobson, 1904.

Taxonomy: This species was incorrectly transferred to Baiocis by Browne (1962: 652). It is listed in that genus by Wood and Bright (1992), although Schedl (1972) had already transferred it back to Platypus. The senior author has compared the lectotype male of P. perangustus (NMW) with specimens in the senior author’s collection previously compared with the holotypes of Platypus sindorae Browne and P. vagus (BMNH). The species are synonymous with Schedl's species having priority. It is a somewhat variable species (Beaver 1995).
Distribution: Recorded only from East Malaysia (Sarawak), West Malaysia and Singapore. Imported to Japan in timber from Sarawak (Ohno 1990).
Biology: Recorded from Cratoxylum arborescens (Clusiaceae), Sindora sp. (Leguminosae) and Myristicaceae sp. (Browne 1980, Ohno, 1990).

description: In this work we compare a number of classification algorithms in predicting COVID19 deaths.  We combine data from a number of different datasets in the Vivli database and we demonstrate that while classic algorithms perform well in terms of accuracy, if one wands to increase the specificity it needs to treat the imbalance in the number of observations between the two classes. In almost all the cases improving specificity has a small cost in the overall accuracy.

Habitat preference in Iran. Soil.
Provincial distribution in Iran. Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari, Guilan, Hamadan, Kerman, and West Azerbaijan (Ahmadi, 2002, published as Pachylaelaps siculus Berlese, 1920a; Haddad Irani-Nejad et al., 2003; Rostami et al., 2010; Babaeian & Kazemi, 2011; Mojahed et al., 2017).
World distribution. Asia (Iran, Israel, and Korea) (Costa, 1961; Keum et al., 2016; Mojahed et al., 2017), Europe (Finland, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Slovakia, and Switzerland) (Costa, 1961, 1971; Karg, 1971, 1993; Salmane, 2001; Salmane & Kontschán, 2005; Mašán, 2007; Salmane & Brumelis, 2010; Huhta, 2016).
Notes. Onchodellus siculus is the second most widely distributed species of the genus in Iran. It can exist in low- to mid-land areas (Mašán, 2007: at the altitudes 170–895 m a.s.l.; Mojahed et al., 2017: at the altitudes - 18–113 m a.s.l). This coprophilous species is found in moss, compost, greenhouses, meadow stands, and in different microhabitats, such as horse excrement, tussock of grass plants, nests of small mammals, and nest of voles (Costa, 1961, 1971; Karg, 1993; Mašán, 2007; Salmane & Brumelis, 2010).

Baiocis seminitens (Schedl): Schedl 1972: 143.
Taxonomy: The senior author has examined the holotype male and allotype female (NMW), which are the only recorded specimens. This species was transferred to Baiocis by Schedl (1972) without comment, and has to be returned to Platypus. The femoral grooves of the pronotum are angulate posteriorly, not anteriorly, and there is no carina or tubercle on the metanepisternum. Schedl (1971) failed to mention in his description of the male, the unique modifications of the first and second ventrites. The first ventrite has a prominent median ridge which lies between the vertical posterior surfaces of the hind coxae. To each side of this, the ventrite is gradually raised (as seen from below) to form a bluntly tipped process lying about halfway between the midline and the lateral margin of the ventrite. Laterally to this process, the ventrite is strongly constricted anteroposteriorly, then gradually widens anteroposteriorly towards the lateral margin. The second ventrite is fairly narrow in the median half, but much wider laterally due to the constriction of the first ventrite. It has a weakly raised hump on each side behind the process on the first ventrite. The third and fourth ventrites are normal, the fifth is coarsely punctured. The species possibly belongs in the group of species related to Platypus lunifer Schedl.
Distribution: India (no details).
Biology: Unknown.

Subsequent examination by the senior author (AA) showed that this species seems to belong to a closely related species, O. strigifer. Therefore, O. glandularis has not yet been recorded from Iran, and we removed it from the Iranian species.

Platypus transformis Schedl, 1936a: 16
Platypus angusticeps Schedl, 1942: 203. syn. n.
Taxonomy: Platypus angusticeps was transferred to Baiocis by Browne (1962: 651), but returned to Platypus by Schedl (1967). Wood and Bright (1992) list the species under Baiocis, and state that there are female syntypes in BMNH, but they are not in that museum, and were evidently not returned by Schedl (see comments in Beaver 1998). The senior author has examined the female specimen incorrectly labelled by Schedl as 'holotype' (NMW). It is a female specimen of Platypus transformis Schedl (specimens examined in BMNH, NMW and RAB).
Distribution: The distribution of the species extends from Sri Lanka through Malaysia and the Philippines to the Bismarck archipelago.
Biology: Almost all records of host trees are from the Dipterocarpaceae, and the species evidently has a preference for that family (Browne 1961). Browne (1936) records the species attacking large living dipterocarp trees through wounds.

Exploring the Interplay of Procedural Justice Perceptions, Criminal Resistance, and Gun Carrying Behaviors in Predicting Violent Juvenile Offending
Creators: name: Hartman, Megan

description: 

Criminal justice research is dominated by social learning, strain, and control theories to determine the factors involved in motivating an individual to commit a crime. These theories have provided insight to the effectiveness of deterrence, restraint, and the overall impact strain has on an individuals attitude and their perspective of not only society, but of the law and entities which govern them. However, not many studies in this field have evaluated the impact of an adjudicated juveniles susceptibility or resistance levels on their criminal habits, the impact of procedural justice perceptions on criminal habits, and further determining joint effects between these two concepts and gun-carrying habits. This study employs ordinary least squares and robust regression methods to determine potential interactions between resistance levels and perceptions of procedural justice. The impact of a variety of factors were also evaluated on subgroups rooted in gang-involvement and location specific models. Results indicate that high inal resistance levels and positive perceptions of procedural justice reduce a male juveniles frequency of violent offending. Several control variables also exhibit significance, which highlights the multifaceted nature of factors which influence crime habits in juveniles.

Type Species. Sagola misella Sharp (designated by Oke 1928: 5).
Diagnosis. The members of the genus Sagola can be distinguished from other genera of Pselaphinae by the following combination of characters: habitus elongate parallel, dorsoventrally slightly flattened; antenna gradually clavate, not abruptly clubbed; dorsum of head with anterior or posterior frontal fovea or both; prosternum with median procoxal fovea and lateral procoxal fovea (Fig. 59p); mesoventrite with promesocoxal fovea (Fig. 59q); metaventrite with lateral metasternal fovea (Fig. 59q); abdominal ventrites IV–VI with basolateral fovea (Fig. 59r); abdominal tergite VI slightly larger than V and smaller than VII (Fig. 59r).
Comments. Males of many species possess secondary sexual characters such as an enlarged triangular head (Figs. 69, 70z), enlarged hind tarsal claw (Fig. 56k), and/or semicircular depression on the fore femur (Fig. 4u: arrow). Males of other species lack obvious characters that distinguish them from females. Most keys provided here are based on male characters, so recognizing the sex of specimens is important to evaluate secondary sexual characters used in the keys. Male abdominal ventrite IX is usually fragile and partially concealed by ventrite VIII, rendering it simple and reduced in appearance (Fig. 2; male). Females possess a more robust, triangular abdominal ventrite IX bearing a pair of long setae (Fig. 2; female) that are usually visible in ventral view.
Antennal shape is usually unique within speciesgroups and individual species. However, apparent variations may result from viewing at inconsistent orientations among specimens. Characterizing antennomeres is difficult, but still useful in comparing types or specimens in series.

Platypus variolosus Schedl, 1942: 201.
Baiocis variolosus (Schedl): Browne 1962: 652.
Taxonomy: This species was described in Platypus from the female sex only, but transferred to Baiocis by Browne (1962). Schedl (1967) returned the species to Platypus. The senior author has examined the lectotype (NMW). It belongs in the genus Platypus, and is related to the species group including Platypus lunifer Schedl and P.subdepressus Schedl, being closest to an undescribed species from Borneo. The unknown male may already have been described under another name.
Distribution: The species is recorded from West Malaysia and Sumatra.
Biology: Unknown.

This species was collected and reported by Nazari-Tajani et al. (2012) from soil and citrus leaves from Guilan Province. During this project, the senior author (AA) tried to find and examine the specimen(s) collected by these authors, in communications with M. Nazari-Tajani (September 2013, personal communication) and J. Hajizadeh (November 2019, personal communication), with no success. Since this species is a rare endemic mite found in Slovakia (Mašán, 2007, described by only three female specimens), here we removed it from the list of the Iranian Onchodellus species.

Using the identification key prepared by Mašán (2007), this species was identified and reported by Mojahed et al. (2017), because all key morphological characteristics fitted O. squamosus. Mašán (January 2017, personal communications) informed the senior author (AA) that this specimen should be conspecific with that species which was identified and illustrated as O. siculus by Koroleva (1977a), then listed as a misidentification by Mašán & Halliday (2014). Therefore, it represents an undescribed species. By this reason, O. squamosus was removed from the acarofauna of Iran.

Ecology and remarks.
These amphipods are associated with coral rubble and seagrass beds at depths of 1.5– 120 m. Panamanian specimens agree closely with previous descriptions of the species. Lowry and Stoddart (1997) recorded this species from the Gulf of Mexico for the first time, noting that it was previously only known from the Pacific side of the Isthmus of Panama. Panamanian specimens are white in color when alive.

description: Background: Science-based decisions regarding forest management require the knowl- edge of the impact of thinning regimens on the forests’ vitality and resilience. There is no systematic study analysing the role of forest management approaches on the nutritional status of forests, serving as a surrogate for their health and growth. Aims: We assessed the impact of ‘heavy thinning from above’ versus ‘no management’ on the foliar chemistry of old-growth European beech stands on a calcareous site with cambisol/chromic luvisol soil in Thuringia, Germany. Methods: Macro- and micronutrients were analysed by serial foliar analysis of six trees per experimental plot over 13 years (2009–2021). To assess potential differences of foliar chemistry between the two plots and over time, a linear mixed-effects model was applied. Results: Foliar concentrations of all macro- and micronutrients were not significantly dif- ferent between the two plots (p > 0.05), demonstrating that the management approach had no relevant impact on the nutritional status of beech trees growing at the calcare- ous site. Furthermore, all foliar concentrations were dynamic over the 13-year evaluation period. Hence, long-term forest monitoring is crucial to capture the complex interplay between the trees and environmental conditions. Conclusions: Serial foliar analysis allows for a reliable evaluation of a forest’s nutritional status. The results indicate that either regimen, that is, ‘heavy thinning from above’ or ‘no management’, shall not pose any risk in terms of growth and stability. Our results add to the understanding of beech forest dynamics and may provide a further piece for science- based strategies of sustainable forest management.

description: Context/Objective: Providing accurate counseling on neurological recovery is crucial after traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI). The early neurological changes that occur in the subacute phase of the injury (i.e. within 14 days of early decompressive surgery) have never been documented. The objective of this study was to assess peri-operative neurological improvements after acute TSCI and determine their relationship with long-term neurological outcomes, measured 6–12 months following the injury. Methods: A retrospective cohort study of 142 adult TSCI patients was conducted. Early peri-operative improvement was defined as improvement of at least 1 AIS grade between the pre-operative and follow-up (6–12 months post-TSCI) assessment. neurological improvement of at least 1 AIS grade. Results: Out of the 142 patients, 18 achieved a peri-operative improvement of at least 1 AIS grade. Presenting a pre-operative AIS grade B and having shorter surgical delays were the main factors associated with stronger odds of achieving this outcome. Out of the 140 patients who still had potential for improvement at the time of the post-operative assessment, 44 achieved late neurological recovery (improvement of at least 1 AIS grade between the post-operative assessment and follow-up). Patients who presented a perioperative improvement seemed more likely to achieve later neurological improvement as well, although this was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Our results suggest that it is important to assess early perioperative neurological changes within 14 days of surgery because it can provide beneficial insight on long-term neurological outcomes for some patients. In addition, earlier surgery may promote early neurological recovery.
