Nachdem Martin Doerry im Spiegel die Krise der Germanistik wiederbelebt hat, bleibt unklar, ob es diese jemals gegeben hat, immer schon gab oder ob wir es hier mit einem Zombie des Feuilletons zu tun haben. Der Artikel zeugt zunächst einmal von einer enttäuschten Erwartung an die Germanistik, die dem Fach eine merkwürdige Potenz zuschreibt. Nur gut, dass die Historiker dieser Erwartung nachkommen, denn bei ihnen werden noch "die großen Fragen der Zeit diskutiert". Doerry hat sich offensichtlich mehr von den Literaturwissenschaftlern erwartet.
Innerhalb nur eines Jahres haben sich zwei Autoren im deutschsprachigen Literaturbetrieb öffentlich zu Wort gemeldet und der Literaturkritik wie der Literaturwissenschaft eine Lehre erteilt: Christian Kracht und Clemens Setz. Die beiden Reden sollten wir uns merken. Als Literaturwissenschaftlerin wünscht man sich, dass der Gegenstand nicht die Art des wissenschaftlichen Zugriffs diktiert. Schwierig wird es, wenn ein sehr lebendiger und sprachgewandter Autor meint, ein Wörtchen im Umgang mit seinen Texten mitzureden zu haben und sich selbst zum Gegenstand der wissenschaftlichen und feuilletonistischen Debatten macht. Dieses Problem tut sich nach dem postmodernen Tod des Autors vor allem auf, wenn Autor*innen gebeten werden, nicht aus ihrem Werk, sondern über ihr Werk zu lesen. Das geschieht im heutigen Literaturbetrieb recht häufig, denkt man an all die Poetikdozenturen im deutschsprachigen Raum oder Vorträge und Dankesreden im Rahmen von Literaturpreisverleihungen.
Handbook of best practice and standards for 2D+ and 3D
imaging of natural history collections
(2020)
Digitising a collection is key to make it last even after the physical objects are no longer available. Almost all of the techniques currently available to digitise a natural history collection in 2D+ and 3D are listed herein. The techniques are explained in a way that even one without any knowledge on the subject may understand their principle. The strong and weak points of the techniques are discussed, and an overview of suitable collections and specimens are given for each one of them. Also, plenty of examples already digitised with each technique are provided together with the links to visualise them in 3D. After explaining all the different digitisation options, the subsequent chapters provide information on how to improve the 2D+ and 3D digital twins of the specimens and techniques are compared to each other by means of test specimens. These give a fast overview of the capabilities of the digitisation techniques. Possible solutions to avoid digitisation errors are equally provided. Lastly, the dissemination of the results and the data management of the 3D models are briefly discussed in the final chapters. Also, a large chapter is provided with several workflows that can be followed to get the best possible results.
The vividly coloured Neotropical genus Callipia Guenée (1858) (Lepidoptera Linnaeus, 1758, Geometridae (Leach, 1815), Larentiinae (Leach, 1815), Stamnodini Forbes, 1948) is revised and separated into four species groups, according to a provisional phylogeny based on Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI) gene data and morphology. Fourteen new species are described using COI data and morphology: a) in the balteata group: C. fiedleri sp. nov., C. jakobi sp. nov., C. lamasi sp. nov.; b) in the vicinaria group: C. hausmanni sp. nov., C. walterfriedlii sp. nov.; c) in the parrhasiata group: C. augustae sp. nov., C. jonai sp. nov., C. karsholti sp. nov., C. levequei sp. nov., C. milleri sp. nov., C. sihvoneni sp. nov., C. wojtusiaki sp. nov. and d) in the constantinaria group: C. hiltae sp. nov., C. rougeriei sp. nov. One new subspecies is described: C. wojtusiaki septentrionalis subsp. nov. Two species are revived from synonymy: C. intermedia Dognin, 1914 stat. rev. and C. occulta Warren, 1904 stat. rev. The taxon hamaria Sperry, 1951 is transferred from being a junior synonym of C. constantinaria Oberthür, 1881 to being a junior synonym of C. occulta stat. rev. The taxon admirabilis Warren, 1904 is confirmed as being a junior synonym of C. paradisea Thierry-Mieg, 1904. The taxon languescens Warren, 1904 is confirmed as being a junior synonym of C. rosetta, Thierry-Mieg, 1904 and the taxon confluens Warren, 1905 is confirmed as being a junior synonym of C. balteata Warren, 1905. The status of the remaining species is not changed: C. aurata Warren, 1904, C. brenemanae Sperry, 1951, C. parrhasiata Guenée, 1858, C. flagrans Warren, 1904, C. fulvida Warren, 1907 and C. vicinaria Dognin. All here recognised 26 species are illustrated and the available molecular genetic information of 25 species, including Barcode Index Numbers (BINs) for most of the taxa is provided. The almost threefold increase from 10 to 26 valid species shows that species richness of tropical moths is strongly underestimated even in relatively conspicuous taxa. Callipia occurs from medium to high elevations in wet parts of the tropical and subtropical Andes from Colombia to northern Argentina. The early stages and host plants are still unknown.
The Italian Renaissance has long been studied as a point of origin for "modern" ideas about art. This approach, which can be traced back to figures like Giorgio Vasari and Jacob Burckhardt, remains central in scholarship on Renaissance art to this day. For example, on the first page of a recent textbook on Italian Renaissance art, Stephen Campbell and Michael Cole begin by laying out two contrary views of the period. To Renaissance writers like Lorenzo Ghiberti, they explain, the Renaissance meant the rebirth of classical antiquity; "to others, however, it has seemed that the importance of Italian art after about 1400 lay not in its return to origins but in the emergence of something entirely new and characteristically modern - the idea of art itself." [...] While this outlook has certainly made a lasting contribution to Renaissance art history, it has also given rise to certain blind spots and misconceptions in the field. For example, it is often assumed that the word "art" underwent a radical change of meaning in the Renaissance, anticipating the later, post-Enlightenment notion of the "fine arts" as an autonomous field of creative activity. However, close readings of period texts often suggest the opposite.
Loxosceles Heineken & Lowe, 1832 spiders are infamous for their medical importance, but a taxonomic picture of the genus is still far from complete. In this study, the Chilean species of Loxosceles are described and mapped. The males of Loxosceles surca Gertsch, 1967 and L. coquimbo Gertsch, 1967 are described for the first time. Three new species with narrow distributions are described from central and northern Chile: Loxosceles diaguita sp. nov. from the Antofagasta Region, L. pallalla sp. nov. from Coquimbo and L. vallenar sp. nov. from Atacama. The first two species are remarkable in their morphology and do not fit into any of Gertsch’s species groups, suggesting that Chile still harbours an undiscovered phylogenetic diversity of the genus. New distribution records for Loxosceles laeta (Nicolet, 1849) are provided throughout Chile.
Two new species and one subspecies of Pharnaciini, belonging to two different genera, are described from Vietnam: one species and subspecies of Phryganistria Stål, 1875 and one species of Phobaeticus Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1907. Two species currently attributed to the genus Ramulus Saussure, 1862, Ramulus magnus (Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1907) and R. chinensis (Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1907), are transferred to Baculonistria Hennemann & Conle, 2008 comb. nov. Phobaeticus longicornis Bi & Wang, 1998 and Phobaeticus yuexiensis Chen & He, 1993 represent the male and female of Baculonistria magnus (Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1907) syn. nov. A lectotype is designated for Baculonistria chinensis (Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1907). The genus Baculonistria now contains three species. Nearchus bachmaensis Ta & Hoang, 2004 is transferred to Phryganistria and the new combination Phryganistria bachmaensis (Ta & Hoang, 2004) comb. nov. is proposed. The species is redescribed and the authors’ attribution corrected, the egg is described and figured for the first time.
Phryganistria tamdaoensis sp. nov. is described and figured from both sexes and the egg. Females of P. tamdaoensis sp. nov. are easily recognised by the conspicuously enlarged lanceolate cerci, a character previously unknown in this tribe. The distribution range of Phryganistria heusii heusii (Hennemann & Conle, 1997) is extended to Tam Dao National Park. A new subspecies Phryganistria heusii yentuensis subsp. nov. is described from Tay Yen Tu Nature Reserve from adult males and females and the eggs. Males can easily be distinguished from the nominal subspecies by their colouration. This huge subspecies represents the second longest insect recorded to date. A key to the species of the genus Phryganistria is provided. Phobaeticus trui sp. nov. is described from central Vietnam. It is the first species of Phobaeticus recorded from Vietnam. Adults of both sexes are illustrated.
The new genus Lobofemora gen. nov. is described from Vietnam to accommodate three new species: L. bachmaensis sp. nov. (Bach Ma National Park, central Vietnam), L. bidoupensis sp. nov. (Bidoup-Nui Ba National Park, central Vietnam) and L. scheirei sp. nov., the type species (Cat Tien National Park and Dong Nai Biosphere Reserve, south Vietnam). It is provisionally placed in the tribe Clitumnini Brunner von Wattenwyl, 1893. The genus is the only known Clitumnini which shows tegmina and sometimes alae in the males. Females show conspicuous foliaceous lobes on the median femora. Males and females of all species and the eggs of L. scheirei sp. nov. and L. bidoupensis sp. nov. are described and illustrated. An identification key to the species and a distribution map are provided. The definition of the tribe Clitumnini sensu Hennemann & Conle (2008) is slightly adapted to include the new genus and the tribal placement is discussed. The male of L. scheirei sp. nov. is able to stridulate by rubbing the outer margins of the tegmina against the subcostal and radial veins of the alae.
The genus Otraleus Günther, 1935 is recorded from the Philippines for the first time. Four new species, Otraleus bellemansae sp. nov., O. applai sp. nov., O. christianae sp. nov. and O. elizabethae sp. nov., are described from the highlands of Northwestern Luzon. The characters allowing separation from O. hypsimelathrus Günther, 1935 and O. labanrataensis Soew-Choen, 2016, are given. A new genus closely related to Otraleus, Capuyanus gen. nov., is described with a single species, C. magwilangi sp. nov., as type-species. An identification key and distribution maps are provided for all species.
A third Supplement to the 1992 Catalog of the Scolytidae and Platypodidae (Coleoptera) of the World (Wood and Bright 1992) is presented. This Supplement updates the taxonomy, distribution, and biology pertaining to these families of Coleoptera from 2000 to the end of 2010. A few 2011 taxonomic references are included in order to make the nomenclature as current as possible. The format of this Supplement differs slightly from the format of the original 1992 Catalog and the two previous Supplements. Only references relating to general biology, systematics and distribution were selected to be included. Tribal arrangement follows the scheme established in the 1992 World Catalog, with additions. Each genus is listed alphabetically under the current tribe and the species are listed alphabetically under the current genus. Additional information on figures, distribution, hosts, and references relating to the above are given. The bibliography used with this Supplement lists 580 references, most published from 2000 to the end of 2010. New synonymy proposed: Phloeotribus carinatus Burgos and Equihua, 2003 (= Phloeotribus ebeneus Wood, 2007). New combinations proposed: Phloeosinus kinabaluensis Bright to Hyledius; Phloeosinus phyllocladus Bright to Hyledius.
An argument is made for the retention of the family status of the Scolytidae and Platypodidae as members of the superfamily Curculionoidea. A new subfamily and tribal arrangement is proposed: SCOLYTIDAE comprising 13 subfamilies, Hylesininae, with 12 tribes, Hyorrhynchinae, with one tribe; Scolytinae, with one tribe; Hexacolinae, with one tribe; Cylindrobrotinae, with one tribe; Scolytoplatypodinae, with one tribe; Cactopininae, with one tribe; Carphodicticinae, with one tribe; Micracidinae, with one tribe; Crypturginae, with one tribe; Ipinae, with six tribes; Cryphalinae, with one tribe and Corthylinae, with two tribes and PLATYPODIDAE comprising three subfamilies, Coptonotinae, with three tribes; Tesserocerinae, with two tribes and Platypodinae, with one tribe.
The nine British and Irish species of Enicospilus are revised, mapped and an identification key provided. One species, Enicospilus myricae sp. nov., is described as new; Enicospilus merdarius (Gravenhorst, 1829) is a senior synonym of E. tournieri (Vollenhoven, 1879) syn. nov.; the only available name for E. merdarius auctt. is Enicospilus adustus (Haller, 1885) stat. rev., and a neotype is designated for Ophion adustus Haller, 1885. Enicospilus cerebrator Aubert, 1969 and E. repentinus (Holmgren, 1860) are newly recorded from Britain. Some host data are available for eight of the nine species.
First discovered in 1934 and described as a variety of Cicindela abdominalis Fabricius (Coleoptera: Cicindelidae), the form floridana, to our knowledge, has not been recollected until we discovered it in 2007, south of the presumed type locality. From our examination of the type specimen, eight paratypes and 40 specimens from the new locality and additional study, we reinterpreted its status to be a full species. This interpretation is based on distinctive and consistent differences from the closely related Cicindelidia scabrosa (Schaupp). These differences include morphology (maculation, color and elytral microsculpture), distribution, habitat, and seasonality. We present here a more detailed description of this species within the genus Cicindelidia Rivalier, following Rivalier and Wiesner becoming Cicindelidia floridana (Cartwright) new combination.
Die folgende Bibliographie geht zurück auf eine bibliographische Liste, die im Rahmen der AG „Animation“ der Gesellschaft für Medienwissenschaft entstanden ist. Ihre Fortschreibung ist, ebenso wie die Erarbeitung einer Bibliographie der Aufsatzliteratur zum Animationsfilm, weiterhin ein Projekt der AG. Um zur laufenden Aktualisierung der Forschungsliteratur beizutragen, nehmen Sie bitte Kontakt über die Homepage der AG auf: http://ag-animation.de/. Die Bibliographie bemüht sich darum, das monographische Schrifttum zu allen Formen der Animation im Film zusammenzutragen. In einigen Feldern kann die Liste nur einen ersten Eindruck der vorliegenden Arbeiten versammeln (z.B. in den Bereichen Computeranimation, medienpädagogische Überlegungen). Und auch die selbständigen Arbeiten zu einzelnen Animateuren (wie z.B. Walt Disney) können keine vollständige Dokumentation der Schriften sein – eine genauere Aufschlüsselung wird Personalbibliographien zu einzelnen Filmemachern des Animationsfilms (einschließlich der Biographien, Kataloge und Broschüren) vorbehalten bleiben. Stets galt es, abweichende Auflagen und auch Übersetzungen zu dokumentieren. Für eine ganze Reihe von Titeln wurde zudem eine Kurzdarstellung des Inhalts angestrebt. Einige Titel konnten nicht mit Sicherheit bibliographisch nachgewiesen werden; sie sind durch ein vorangestelltes ° gekennzeichnet.
Selbst in einer Disziplin wie der Kunstgeschichte, die sich täglich mit sichtbaren Formen aller Art befasst, kommt es vor, dass Fachleute einander um Rat fragen, weil sie Literatur zum Thema "Bildbeschreibung" suchen. Zwar wird die Betrachtung und Beschreibung von Bildern vielerorts schon in der Schule praktiziert, z.B. um die Ausdrucksweise zu schärfen, und es gehört auch an der Universität zu den fachlichen Standardübungen, Kunstwerke in Worte zu fassen, um ihr konkretes Erscheinungsbild oder ihre Wirkung überhaupt diskutieren zu können. Dennoch bleibt die Übersetzung des Visuellen ins Verbale ein eher stummes Wissen, für das es offenbar keine verbindlichen Regeln gibt. [...] Einen Ausweg scheint hier Erwin Panofsky (1892–1968) zu bieten. Der in Hannover geborene und an der noch jungen Hamburger Universität tätige Kunsthistoriker, der während der NS-Herrschaft in die USA emigrierte, hatte 1932 in seinem Aufsatz "Zum Problem der Beschreibung und Inhaltsdeutung von Werken der bildenden Kunst" eine Methode zur Deutung von Bildern der Renaissance skizziert, die später eine unerwartete Karriere gemacht hat. In den USA griff Panofsky den Text und dessen Kerngedanken 1939 noch einmal für ein englischsprachiges Publikum unter dem Titel "Studies in Iconology" auf. Dieser Aufsatz wurde von ihm weiter ausgebaut, er wurde in zahlreiche Sprachen übertragen und schließlich auch ins Deutsche zurückübersetzt. Begünstigt wurde der Erfolg durch eine beigefügte Synopse, die als eine schrittweise Anleitung zur Interpretation von Bildern verstanden werden konnte. Auch unabhängig vom Text erwies sich diese Tabelle als griffige Handreichung zur Bildanalyse, sie wurde zur Grundlage von Propädeutika und ist bis heute Thema in fast jeder Einführung in die kunsthistorische Methodik zu finden. Da sie obendrein in allen erdenklichen Disziplinen, von der Geografie bis zur Soziologie und von der Pädagogik bis zur Geschichtswissenschaft zum Einsatz kommt, wird sie heute womöglich sogar häufiger außerhalb als innerhalb der Kunstgeschichte verwendet. Dies gibt Anlass zum Nachdenken und zur Rückschau.
As is well known, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and what is considered beautiful is contextual. The itinerant symposium "Medicine, Beauty, and the Body: Materials, Texts and Artifacts" which took place from September 24 to 28, 2023 in Innsbruck, Salzburg and Vienna explored this topic in an interdisciplinary way and examined the intertwining of beauty, health and medicine from antiquity to early modern Europe. The event was a cooperation between the programme "Figurations of Transitions" of the inter-university institution Science and Art of the Paris-Lodron-University Salzburg and the University Mozarteum in Salzburg, Schloss Ambras and the Museumsverband Kunsthistorisches Museum Wien. Not only the sheer diversity of sources in the field of historical beauty cultures became apparent, but also their circulation and transformation through time and space as well as their significance as social, political, religious, and economic variables. The practical approach of the event in particular showed new paths in the field of historical beauty studies.
We describe three new parastenocaridid: Cottarellicaris sanctiangeli Bruno & Cottarelli sp. nov., Stammericaris vincentimariae Bruno & Cottarelli sp. nov. and Proserpinicars specincola Bruno & Cottarelli sp. nov., collected in the pools of five different caves located in Calabria (Southern Italy). We conducted a phylogenetic analysis based on the mitochondrial COI and ribosomal 18S sequences of C. sanctiangeli sp. nov. and S. vincentimariae sp. nov., and of four more species of Stammericaris and one Proserpinicaris available from literature. Based on the molecular study, the specimens of C. sanctiangeli sp. nov. are clearly separated from the species belonging to the closely-related genus Stammericaris. The morphological and molecular data indicate that the genera belonging to the two subfamilies Parastenocaridinae and Fontinalicaridinae form two monophyletic and distinct clades, thus supporting their status. We also provide insights on the genus Proserpinicaris based on morphological data only; in particular, the most important synapomorphic character of the genus, i.e., the taxonomic value of the hyaline structure inserted on the anterior surface of the male leg 4 basis, is discussed based on the development of the P4 endopod, as observed in the last copepodid stage of some species of this genus. Finally, we widen the biogeographic and ecological knowledge of the three genera.
Die folgende filmographische Übersicht ist der erste Teil einer umfassenden Dokumentation der Darstellung von Rock- und Popmusik im Film. Sie umfasst:
- Biopics über Pop- und Rockmusiker und Musikagenten und -manager; Schlüsselfilme;
- Geschichten fiktionaler Musiker und Bands;
- Geschichten, die im Milieu der Tonstudios, der Clubs, des Tourlebens spielen;
- Geschichten, in denen mindest eine der Figuren
Pop- oder Rockmusiker ist.
Nicht aufgenommen wurden Geschichten, die durch den exzessiven oder ästhetisch auffallenden Einsatz von Rock-(Film-)Musik bemerkenswert sind (wie Easy Rider, USA 1969, Dennis Hopper). Nicht oder nur im Ausnahmefall aufgenommen sind Tanzfilme (wie Dirty Dancing, USA 1987, Emile Ardolino), Rock-Opern und -Musicals (wie The Rocky Horror Picture Show, USA 1975, Jim Sharman).
Ladislaw Starewicz wurde am 27. Juli 1882 (bzw. am 8. August 1882 lt. Gregorianischem Kalender [1]) in Moskau als Kind polnischer Eltern geboren; er starb am 26. Februar 1965 im französischen Fontenay-sous-Bois. Starewicz war ein polnischer Puppentrickfilmer, der zu den Pionieren der Stop-Motion-Technik gehört und häufig präparierte Insekten und Tierfiguren als Protagonisten seiner Filme einsetzte. Er begann seine Arbeit in Russland und setzte sie nach der Oktoberrevolution in Frankreich fort.
Als Beach Party Movies bezeichnet man ein kleines Genre von Filmen, das sich um die Produktionen der American International Pictures (AIP) versammelt. Zwar gab es eine Reihe von Vorläufern – zuallererst ist die Columbia-Produktion GIDGET aus dem Jahre 1959 zu nennen (nach einem Erfolgsroman von Frederick Kohner), in dem Sandra Dee als Surferin aufgetreten war –, doch beginnt die kurze Erfolgsgeschichte des Genres erst mit BEACH PARTY (1963), einer
AIP-Produktion, die einen ebenso unerwarteten wie großen Kassenerfolg hatte.
This paper deals with the taxonomy and faunistics of the genus Diplommatina in Nepal. Altogether 16 species are reported, seven of which are new to science viz. D. abiesiana sp. nov., D. fistulata sp. nov., D. godawariensis sp. nov., D. maipokhariensis sp. nov., D. salgharica sp. nov., D. shivapuriensis sp. nov. and D. syabrubesiensis sp. nov. Information on nine previously reported species is provided: D. exserta Godwin-Austen, 1886, D. folliculus (L. Pfeiffer, 1846), D. miriensis Godwin-Austen, 1917, D. munipurensis Godwin-Austen, 1892, D. oviformis Fulton, 1901, D. pachycheilus Benson, 1857, D. regularis Fulton, 1901, D. silvicola Godwin-Austen, 1886 and D. sperata W.T. Blanford, 1862. Although D. canarica was once reported from Nepal, it is not treated here as it is an endemic of the Western Ghats. A dichotomous identification key for all Nepalese species is presented.
Die Nachhaltigkeit des Waldes wird heute im Allgemeinen als die gleichrangige Berücksichtigung ökonomischer, ökologischer und sozialer Waldfunktionen beschrieben. Insbesondere das Konzept des naturnahen Waldbaus "verbindet in hohem Maße die verschiedenen ökonomischen, ökologischen und sozialen Teilziele der Nachhaltigkeit" (Kleinschmit 2007: 133). Die in der Praxis teilweise zu beobachtende übermäßige Ausrichtung an ökonomischen Gesichtspunkten und an der Sicht auf den Wald als primären Holzproduzenten wird von vielen Akteuren und Akteurinnen kritisiert; im Zuge des Klimawandels und der Klimawandelforschung rücken zwar die ökologischen Funktionen des Waldes – bspw. als Kohlenstoffsenke, Biodiversitäts-Potential, aber auch als Energieressource – mehr in den Blickpunkt. Wie steht es jedoch um den dritten Pfeiler der Nachhaltigkeit, die sozialen Funktionen des Waldes? Ulrich Schraml (Forstpolitikwissenschaftler an der Universität Freiburg) zufolge "führen die sozialen Funktionen des Waldes neben Walderhaltung, Sicherung der Biodiversität, Rohstoffversorgung und den Klimaprogrammen in den laufenden Prozessen ein Schattendasein" (Schraml 2009: 2). Der vorliegende Text wird sich diesem "blinden Fleck" der aktuellen forstwissenschaftlichen Forschung zuwenden und die Frage stellen, (1) welche sozialen Funktionen der Wald erfüllen soll und (2) wie diese gewährleistet werden können. Während erstere Fragestellung auf den gesellschaftlichen Anspruch an Wald, d.h. auf die Art und Weise der sozialen Nutzung, abzielt, erfordert letztere den Einbezug forstpolitischer Rahmenbedingungen und deren Verhältnis zur Sicherstellung dieser Nutzungsformen. Die Frage lautet also, wie sich die Veränderung der forstpolitischen Rahmenbedingungen auf die sozialen Funktionen der Wälder und auf die Möglichkeiten sozialer Nutzungen auswirken oder in Zukunft auswirken könnten. ...
Die fremdsprachliche Spielfilmdidaktik geht der Frage nach, wie der Erwerb einer Sprache im Fremd-/Zweitsprachenunterricht durch den Einsatz von ganzen Spielfilmen oder von einzelnen Szenen und Sequenzen aus Spielfilmen gefördert werden kann. Sie formuliert entsprechende Lernziele, untersucht, ob bestimmte Filme für den fremdsprachlichen Unterricht geeignet sind, und entwickelt Lehrmaterialien mit Spielfilmen als zentralem Bestandteil.
Außerdem wird – bisher aber nur selten – die Wirkung des Filmeinsatzes auf die fremdsprachliche Kompetenz der Lernenden durch empirische Studien erforscht. Der eigentliche Beginn der fremdsprachlichen Spielfilmdidaktik lag in den Siebzigerjahren des vergangenen Jahrhunderts; die vorher erschienene Literatur beschäftigte sich fast ausschließlich mit der Verwendung von – zumeist speziell für den Unterricht produzierten – Kurzfilmen. Schrittmacher der fremdsprachlichen Spielfilmdidaktik war zunächst der Französischunterricht und dort vor allem der Literaturunterricht (Einsatz von Literaturverfilmungen).
Schon bald folgten jedoch Publikationen zu anderen Zielsprachen – vor allem zum Englisch-, Deutsch-als-Fremdsprache- und Spanischunterricht – sowie zu Filmen, die nicht auf literarischen Vorlagen basieren. Seitdem Spielfilme auf elektronischen Speichermedien (Videokassette und vor allem DVD/Blu-ray Disc) leicht verfügbar sind, ist die Zahl der einschlägigen Veröffentlichungen und der tatsächlich durchgeführten Unterrichtseinheiten deutlich angestiegen.
Naturgemäß geht es in den hier aufgelisteten Arbeiten in erster Linie um fremdsprachendidaktische Themenstellungen (z.B. Training des fremdsprachlichen Hör-Seh-Verstehens, Erwerb landeskundlicher Kenntnisse und interkulturelles Lernen, Förderung der fremdsprachlichen Sprech- und Schreibfertigkeit durch kreativ-produktive Auseinandersetzung mit den Filmen etc.), aber insbesondere in den Publikationen, die aus Deutschland stammen, wird häufig auch auf mediendidaktische Zielsetzungen (visual/ film literacy, Filmkompetenz) fokussiert. Diese Zielsetzungen sind seit einiger Zeit auch in etlichen deutschen Schullehrplänen verankert.
New host and geographic records are given from Mexico, Guatemala, and Costa Rica for Megaplatypus exaratus (Blandford), previously reported only from three localities in Guatemala. Like most Platypodinae it is polyphagous and breeding hosts are reported from fi ve genera in four unrelated families. A redescription and updated diagnosis is included.
We present a preliminary checklist of bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Anthophila) compiled for St. Eustatius, an island located in the Lesser Antilles of the eastern Caribbean. The list has nine species, including six that have not been previously documented on St. Eustatius. One species is exotic to the Caribbean, one species is found only on St. Eustatius and St. Kitts, and five species occur elsewhere in the Lesser and Greater Antilles. Two of the collected specimens could not be assigned to a species; their geographical distributions are unknown.
In order to consider the effects of online publishing on the career of researchers, as well as to encourage both its recognition and its improved positioning within the field and beyond, the CETAF Membership organized two workshops during which specific questions about scientific publishing in taxonomy were addressed: authorship citation and Open Access. The present opinion paper is the result of those workshops held on 19 October 2016 in Madrid and on 4 October 2017 in Heraklion. The discussions were aimed at reconciling the requirements of the relevant nomenclatural codes with recommendations for best practices that are adapted to the evolving landscape of e-publishing. By evaluating the different policies of a range of journals regarding authorship citation, we were able to recognise the conflicting and incoherent practices related to the citation of taxon authorships; an issue that is important to clarify for scientific (explicit source), practical (findability of source) and reputational (citation index) reasons. A collective policy on authorship citation also fits into the wider challenge faced by researchers and institutions, whereby interoperability and traceability become key priorities, both for facilitating access to scientific resources and for generating metrics that accurately represent the activities and output of the community. Publications resulting from publicly-funded research should be considered as an essential part of the research process and there has been a strong move towards Open Access, which increases visibility, citability, innovation and impact. Diverse models of Open Access have appeared in scientific publishing but while they each promote free access to the end user, they are not always equitable for the authors and funders of the original research. Herein we formulate recommendations for the relevant research communities and outline the advantages behind adopting a collective strategy towards the issues of authorship citation and Open Access.
Contributions to the knowledge of the mite genus Stigmaeus Koch, 1836 (Acari: Stigmaeidae) of Turkey
(2017)
Based on the mite specimens collected within the scope of a study on Erzincan (Turkey) mite biodiversity, two species of the genus Stigmaeus are described and illustrated here: S. bifurcus sp. nov. as new to science and S. miandoabiensis Bagheri & Zarei, 2012 as a new record for Turkey. Some morphological abnormalities in the new species are noted. The deutonymph of S. miandoabiensis is described for the first time in this study. Discovery of this stage from soil and litter under Pinus sylvestris in Turkey adds more data to our knowledge of the species.
A new species of the genus Onychopygia Beier, 1962 Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae: Pseudophyllinae) from the northern slopes of Los Cuchumatanes Mountains, Huehuetenango, Guatemala is described and illustrated. The morphological differences and peculiarities between O. panamensis Beier, 1962 and O. brachyptera n. sp. are discussed. The finding of this new taxon extends considerably into entral America our previous knowledge on the distribution of the Eucocconotini tribe. Finally we provide a revised taxonomic key to the Eucocconotini tribe.
The diversity of Porifera from Ponta do Ouro (Mozambique) has been evaluated; this paper presents the first taxonomic effort devoted to sponges in the area, while studies of closeby areas are quite dated. Overall, 55 specimens were examined, leading to 26 described species; among these, four are new (Hyattella sulfurea Calcinai & Belfiore sp. nov., H. pedunculata Calcinai & Belfiore sp. nov., Amphimedon palmata Calcinai & Belfiore sp. nov. and Phoriospongia mozambiquensis Calcinai & Belfiore sp. nov.) and four (Chondrosia corticata Thiele, 1900, Callyspongia (Cladochalina) aerizusa Desqueyroux-Faundez, 1984, Clathria (Thalysias) hirsuta Hooper & Levi, 1993 and Ciocalypta heterostyla Hentschel, 1912) are new records for the Indian Ocean. For Callyspongia (Euplacella) abnormis Pulitzer-Finali, 1993, Callyspongia (Callyspongia) pulitzeri Van Soest & Hooper, 2020 and Amphimedon brevispiculifera (Dendy, 1905) this represents the first record after their initial discovery. The majority of the species have a wide distribution in the Indo-Pacific Ocean, but species from South and East Africa have also been recorded. These data highlight the characteristic of Ponta do Ouro as a transitional zone, located between a tropical and temperate biogeographic province, as well as the importance of increasing biodiversity knowledge of this biogeographic border to monitor possible shifts in the area as a consequence of climate crisis.
A taxonomic revision of Panamanian species of the genus Dasymutilla Ashmead (Hymenoptera, Mutillidae) is presented and a key for the six species is given, all recognized from both sexes. Dasymutilla colorado Cambra, Williams and Quintero sp. nov., from central and eastern Panama, is described and illustrated. Sex associations permitted us to make the following five synonymies: D. sleipniri Manley and Pitts, 2007 (male) under D. phya (Cameron, 1895) (female); D. deyrollesi Mickel, 1937 (male) and Sphaerophthama [sic.] temaxensis Cameron, 1895 under Dasymutilla araneoides (Smith, 1862) (female); D. ionothorax Manley and Pitts, 2007 (male) under Dasymutilla spilota Manley and Pitts, 2007 (female); and D. guanacaste Manley and Pitts, 2007 (male) under D. paradoxa (Gerstaecker, 1874) (female). Seasonal flight activity for Dasymutilla from six years of continuous malaise trappings in Barro Colorado Island is presented.
Following a taxonomic revision of Begonia L. (Begoniaceae, Cucurbitales) from Northeast India based on 332 herbarium specimens, 38 species are confirmed to occur in the region, of which ten are endemic. One new species is described, Begonia koelzii R.Camfield sp. nov., in B. sect. Platycentrum (Klotzsch) A.DC. One species is reduced into synonymy; B. barbata Wall. is now a synonym of B. thomsonii A.DC. Three species, B. difformis (Irmsch.) W.C.Leong, C.I Peng & K.F.Chung, B. labordei H.Lév. and B. handelii Irmsch., are reported new for India, and B. lushaiensis C.E.C.Fisch. is reinstated as an accepted species, having previously been synonymised under B. modestiflora Kurz. A key to the species in the region and preliminary conservation assessments are presented.
After the examination of a large collection of Oniscidea from caves in the Brazilian states of Bahia, Minas Gerais, Pará, Sergipe and São Paulo, 12 species were recognized in the families Philosciidae and Scleropactidae. Four new species are described: Alboscia jotajota sp. nov. from the Açungui group; Androdeloscia akuanduba sp. nov. and Amazoniscus spica sp. nov. from the Carajás Formation; and Metaprosekia igatuensis sp. nov. from the Quadrilátero Ferrífero karst region. In addition, Atlantoscia inflata, Benthana longicornis, B. olfersii, B. picta and Paratlantoscia rubromarginata (Philosciidae) are recorded from Brazilian caves for the first time; and Benthana iporangensis, B. taeniata and Circoniscus bezzii (Scleropactidae) have the knowledge of their distribution extended to cave habitats.
A new species of Physoconops Szilady, P. (Pachyconops) weemsi, is described from Florida and Georgia. It is similar to two other species in the southeastern United States, P. floridanus Camras and P. brachyrhynchus Macquart, the main differential character being the shape of the female theca. The female thecae for all three are illustrated and a key to the three related Pachyconops species occurring in the southeastern United States is presented.
