title: Two new species of Rhaucus Simon, 1879 reveal putative synapomorphies related to the microstructural morphology of male genitalia (Opiliones: Cosmetidae)

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Pinzón-M, Conchita, Pinto-Da-Rocha, Ricardo (2024): Two new species of Rhaucus Simon, 1879 reveal putative synapomorphies related to the microstructural morphology of male genitalia (Opiliones: Cosmetidae). Zootaxa 5555 (1): 35-56, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5555.1.3, URL: https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5555.1.3AbstractTwo new species of Rhaucus Simon, 1879 are described from Bolívar, Colombia: Rhaucus gaiterus sp. nov. and Rhaucus artifex sp. nov. Additionally, two species of Meterginus Pickard-Cambridge, 1905 are transferred to the genus Rhaucus based on genital and somatic characters, resulting in two new combinations: Rhaucus serratus (Roewer 1912) comb. nov. and Rhaucus marmoratus (Roewer 1912) comb. nov. Thus, the genus Rhaucus is currently represented by ten species. Structures related to the ventral macrosetae on the ventral plate of the penis are described and proposed as putative synapomorphies, based on the occurrence of these characters in almost all species of this genus. A comparative discussion is provided regarding the morphology of the ozopore in species of this genus. Finally, our findings suggest that Rhaucus is more widely distributed than previously thought, occurring not only in the Andean mountains of Colombia but also in the Ecuadorian Andean mountains and the northern lowlands of Colombia.

Zootaxa 5419 (4): 563-583, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5419.4.5, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.5419.4.5AbstractIn this contribution based on the American wingless gryllacridines, the two genera described for the New World Camptonotus and Neoeremus are defined and differentiated, resulting in three additional genera: Neortus stat. resurr., Fiancogryllacris n. gen. and Camposgryllacris n. gen. The species of these genera were described at the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, and in most taxa, there are no records since their description, so the iNaturalist platform provided additional distributional data for some species. Taxonomic keys are provided for the identification of the genera and species studied. Finally, the evolutionary interpretation of the appearance and disappearance of wings in leaf-rolling crickets are discussed.

title: Diabetic Retinopathy Early Analysis and Detection System

description: This preprint presents an AI-driven system for the early analysis and detection of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) using ensemble deep learning techniques. Diabetic Retinopathy is a leading cause of preventable blindness worldwide, and timely diagnosis plays a critical role in reducing irreversible vision loss.

The proposed framework integrates multiple deep learning architectures, including convolutional neural networks and transformer-based models, to improve diagnostic accuracy, robustness, and generalizability across diverse retinal fundus image datasets. Both publicly available datasets (such as Kaggle EyePACS and Messidor) and real-world clinical samples were utilized to enhance model reliability and real-world applicability.

The system performs multi-class classification of DR severity levels based on the International Clinical Diabetic Retinopathy (ICDR) scale. Extensive preprocessing, data augmentation, and ensemble learning strategies were applied to address challenges such as class imbalance, image quality variation, and limited dataset diversity.

This work aims to contribute to AI-assisted medical imaging research by providing a scalable, low-resource, and clinically relevant diagnostic framework suitable for deployment in under-resourced healthcare environments. The preprint is shared for academic dissemination, citation, and feedback purposes and has not yet undergone formal peer review.

title: Spatio-temporal distribution of pufferfish (Tetraodontidae) along the Turkish coast of the Mediterranean Sea Abstract

description: This dataset contains the digitized treatments in Plazi based on the original journal article Mutlu, Erhan, Meo, Ilaria de, Miglietta, Claudia (2020): Spatio-temporal distribution of pufferfish (Tetraodontidae) along the Turkish coast of the Mediterranean Sea Abstract. Mediterranean Marine Science 22 (1): 1-19, DOI: 10.12681/mms.23481, URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.12681/mms.23481AbstractPufferfish represent a serious threat to the marine ecosystem in the Mediterranean Sea. To better understand the population dynamics of pufferfish and their relation with ecological parameters, six pufferfish species were studied in two fishing and one non-fishing zone in one of the most oligotrophic regions of the Mediterranean Sea during 2014 and 2015, including different habitats of vegetated and non-vegetated and seasons. The results provide information on pufferfish ecological status compared with more eutrophic zones in which these species could potentially worsen their impact. Four species were common in the study area and two were rare. The dominant species was Lagocephalus suezensis, reaching abundances of 11,000 ind/km 2 at 25 m in October, followed by Lagocephalus sceleratus, Lagocephalus guentheri, and Torquigener flavimaculosus. The rarest species, Tylerius spinosissimus and Sphoeroides pachygaster, reached higher abundance and biomass in October and February than the other sampling months. The riverine and meadow habitats played a crucial role for nursing and reproduction in the population dynamics of Lagocephalus species, while T. flavimaculosus was absent in these areas. Sex ratios changed depending on season and location. The occurrence of larger individuals of Lagocephalus spp. and T. flavimaculosus at greater depths evidenced an ontogenetic migration. Overall, length-weight (L-W) relationships indicate isometric growth for each of the species studied. Pufferfish populations were primarily a function of habitat and depth of seafloor and secondarily with water productivity.

European Journal of Taxonomy 900 (1): 32-80, DOI: 10.5852/ejt.2023.900.2301, URL: https://europeanjournaloftaxonomy.eu/index.php/ejt/article/download/2301/9981Abstract. The southern South American genus Guaranita includes tiny spiders (body length ~ 1 mm) that lead reclusive lives under ground-objects and run rapidly when disturbed. As a result, they have been poorly collected and studied. Here we report on a recent collection of Guaranita spiders from Argentina, describing one new species (G. auadae Huber sp. nov.) and the previously unknown female of G. dobby Torres et al., 2016. In addition, we provide CO1 barcodes for all (now five) known species, first SEM data, and first chromosome data for the genus. The diploid number of Guaranita goloboffi Huber, 2000 (2n♂ = 11) is among the lowest in araneomorph spiders with monocentric chromosome structure.

Nota Lepidopterologica 48: 251-268, DOI: 10.3897/nl.48.150262Abstract.A few members within the genus Samia, have been widely collected and domesticated due to their sericultural or entomophagous value. Based on field observations in recent years, this article summarizes and analyzes relevant ecological information, especially focused on the hostplants in nature, related to all five species of this genus naturally distributed in China, and another population restricted to artificial environments. Plants in the families Rutaceae, Simaroubaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Lauraceae and Coriariaceae are considered suitable for feeding the caterpillars of most members of these wild silkworms, while Styracaceae and Theaceae require special attention in future field surveys or captive experiments. Combined with the results for Samia, an additional contribution of this work is to discuss the hostplant discoveries for the genera Archaeoattacus Watson, 1914 and Rhodinia Staudinger, 1892, which are also members of the tribe Attacini, to reveal potential homologies in hostplant preferences within a larger phylogenetic context beyond Samia.
