Aphilanthops concinnulus, n. sp. — ♀. Length, 9 mm. Rufous, with white markings, a rather obscure broad black band extending across vertex, including most of the ocelli, its lower margin concave, mandibles darkened towards tips, mid and hind tarsi darkened. The white or yellowish-white marks consist of a small spot on each lower corner of face, a small obscure suffused spot on mandibles near base, the prothorax above, the tegulæ except extreme base, the tubercles, a large patch behind tubercles having a linear oblique projection above, the anterior margin of scutellum, a spot on each side, the postscutellum, spots at the apices of anterior and hind femora, longitudinal bands on all the tibiæ, a large patch on each side of the first three abdominal segments, a band on the fourth, a broad quadrate spot medially on the fifth. Venter immaculate. Face with the usual silvery appressed pile. General structure, wings, etc., as in quadrinotatus, but the third submarginal cell is much less produced at its apex, and the third at its base, than in quadriuotatus, this character, however, being liable to variation. The anterior tarsi present numerous gray spatulate hairs. The apex of the abdomen is of the same type as in quadrinotatus.

De Man

Three species of the genus Automate De Man, 1888 are described herein, including two new species: A. anacanthopusoides sp. nov. and A. spinosa sp. nov.. Automate anacanthopusoides sp. nov. can be easily identified by the presence of a rostrum, the notch on the lower margin of the major chela, the stout minor cheliped and the cutting edge of the pollex not dentate, and by the absence of spines on the ventral margin of the propodus of the third and fourth pereiopod. Automate spinosa sp. nov. can be easily identified by the nearly straight anterior margin of the carapace, and the presence of spines on the ventral margin of the propodus of third and fourth pereiopod. A key of all species of the Automate is provided.

Wing Folding

The wing folding mechanism was investigated after a detailed study of the wing base morphology had been made (Sharplin, Canad. Ent. 95: 1024; 1121). Living moths were observed with a binocular microscope equipped with a micrometer eyepiece.The first and second axillary sclerites do not move anteroposteriorly; only the distal half of the wing base is involved in wing folding. The folding muscle originates on the pleural ridge and inserts on the third axillary sclerite. The movement of the third axillary is communicated to the bases of the anterior veins through the median plates. The radial plate rotates around the ventral second axillary sclerite which lies underneath the radial bridge at point p, (Fig. 1). Bending cuticle allows the radial bridge to buckle when the wing is folded. The first median plate ( Ml ) rotates about its articulation ( f ) with the dorsal second axillary sclerite. The distal median plate (M2) passes underneath the second cubitus and is fused to the radius. This connection to the radius restricts the backward movement of the second median plate so that point e instead of following the wider arc eg of a circle with its centre at f, must follow the arc cegd drawn about pivot p. The median plates are bent upwards during wing folding and their effective length is shortened so that they can follow the shallow arc epg. When point e is in position g the posterior margin of the median plates is straight, although the anterior margin remains arched causing the median plates to be buckled, (Fig. 2).

AbstractThe main goal of the Dictionnaire etymologique et historique des regionalismes de l’immobilier (Etymological and Historical Dictionary of Regionalisms of Real Estate) is to study regionalisms of French in a thematic perspective. Its first volume, currently in preparation, is dedicated to belgicisms and luxembourgisms. This article first presents the book in general: the broad way “real estate” has to be understood, its purpose and its intended audience. The second part of the article focuses more specifically on its general structure, the third, on its macrostructure and the fourth one on its microstructure. It concludes with some examples of articles: acte (sur terrain), additionnel, arvau, egaline, ressabler.

Vast Range

As the contributions to this two-part special issue demonstrate, Spanish and Latin American criminal theory has attained a remarkable degree of sophistication. Regrettably, Anglo-American scholars have had limited access to this rich body of literature. With this volume, the New Criminal Law Review has taken a very important first step toward rectifying this situation. Although the articles written for this special issue cover a vast range of subjects, they can be divided into four main categories: (1) the legitimacy of the criminal sanction, (2) the punishability of omissions, (3) the challenges that international criminal law and the fight against terrorism pose to criminal theory, and (4) the theory of justification and excuse. The articles pertaining to the first two categories will appear in the first half of this special issue (Volume 11, Number 3) and the pieces belonging to the third and fourth categories will be published in the upcoming second half (Volume 11, Number 4). In accordance with this general structure, in the pages that follow I will provide a brief summary and critique of the pieces contained in both parts.

Histology and fine structure of the pre-optic nucleus and hypothalamic tracts of the European eel Anguilla anguilla L

Secretory Products

The pre-optic nucleus and hypothalamic tracts of intact and hypophysectomized specimens of the European eel Anguilla anguilla L. have been studied in situ and by optical and electron microscopy. The in situ technique reveals a hitherto unsuspected degree of segregation of the neurosecretory axons which form up to five discrete tracts having separate origins and following distinct paths before converging, at the level of the anterior margin of the pituitary, to form a median tract. The structure of the pre-optic neurons, as revealed by several different techniques, is described and it is shown that their synthetic poles, identified by a prominent cap of endoplasmic reticulum, are precisely orientated towards the third ventricle and are separated from it by, at most, two or three layers of ependymal cells. Electron microscopy shows that the secretory products lie mainly in the axonal ends of the cells though in Bouin-fixed, wax-embedded material the entire perikaryon stains with neurosecretory dyes and this, and their proximity to the third ventricle, gives the impression that they secrete into the latter, as well as centripetally. This may well be so, but from the work described below it seems more likely that these neurons receive nutrients, or stimuli, or both, from the third ventricle. Two types of pre-optic neurons, separable by structural features as well as by the size of the elementary granules they contain have been identified; these probably give rise to two of the fibre types identified in the neurohypophysis of the eel by Knowles & Vollrath. Aggregations of neurosecretion, common in the fish pre-optic nucleus, and also, much rarer, colloid vesicles, are described and discussed.

Three New Species

Seven species of eukalyptorhynch flatworms from the Galapagos Islands are reported. Six of them belong to the taxon Koinocystididae Meixner, 1924, three of which are new to science. Two of these new species can be attributed to the genus Itaipusa Marcus, 1949 based on the construction of the prostate vesicle and the general structure of the female system. Itaipusa biglandula n. sp. is characterised by a very short, muscular, unarmed penis papilla, whereas I. renei n. sp. is characterised by the presence of a cirrus armed with minute scales, and two large, blunt hooks in the male atrium. The third new species cannot be placed in any existing taxon and therefore a new genus is erected: Galapagetula annikae n. gen. n. sp.. It is characterised by a straight and rather long cirrus, armed with small spines, and a clearly bipartite bursa in the female system. Additional morphological information is given for the three known species of Koinocystididae: I. divae Marcus, 1949; I. variodentata (Karling, Mack-Fira & Dörjes, 1972) Karling, 1978 and Utelga heinckei (Attems, 1897) Karling, 1954. For I. divae a new locality from Curaçao is also mentioned. The seventh species is a species of Gnathorhynchidae: Prognathorhynchus eurytuba Ax & Armonies, 1987, for which new morphological information on the organisation of the genital system is given.
