The single unit doctrine proposes that each one of our percepts and sensations is represented by the activity of specialized high-level cells in the brain. A common criticism applied to this proposal is the one referred to as the "combinatorial problem". We are constantly confronted with unlimited combinations of elements and features, and yet we face no problem in recognizing patterns and objects present in visual scenes. Are there enough neurons in the brain to singly code for each one of our percepts? Or is it the case that perceptions are represented by the distributed activity of different neuronal ensembles? We lack a general theory capable of explaining how distributed information can be efficiently integrated into single percepts. The working hypothesis here is that distributed neuronal ensembles signal relations present in the stimulus by selectively synchronizing their spiking responses. Synchronization is generally associated with oscillatory activity in the brain. Gamma oscillations in particular have been linked to various integrative processes in the visual system. Studies in anesthetized animals have shown a conspicuous increase in power for the gamma frequency band (30 to 60 Hz) in response to visual stimuli. Recently, these observations have been extended to behavioral studies which addressed the role of gamma activity in cognitive processes demanding selective attention. The initial motivation for carrying out this work was to test if the binding-by-synchronization (BBS) hypothesis serves as a neuronal mechanism for perceptual grouping in the visual system. To this aim we used single and superimposed grating stimuli. Superimposed gratings (plaids) are bi-stable stimuli capable of eliciting different percepts depending on their physical characteristics. In this way, plaids can be perceived either as a single moving surface (pattern plaids), or as two segregated surfaces drifting in different directions (component plaids). While testing the BBS hypothesis, we performed various experiments which addressed the role of both stimulus and cortical architecture on the properties of gamma oscillations in the primary visual cortex (V1) of monkeys. Additionally, we investigated whether gamma activity could also be modulated by allocating attention in time. Finally, we report on gamma-phase shifts in area V1, and how they depend on the level of neuronal activation. ...

Three new species of Paragnorimus Becker are described: Paragnorimus atratus n. sp. from Guatemala, P. hondurensis n. sp. from Honduras and Nicaragua, and P. howdeni n. sp. from Guatemala. Based on the overlapping characters of these new species, the genus Peltotrichius Howden is placed in synonymy with Paragnorimus. Paragnorimus is given a broader definition to encompass the new species and the two species formerly placed in the genus Peltotrichius.
Die Filme Ghostrider, Knowing und Next entfalten auf jeweils unterschiedliche Art und Weise die Problematik, wie vor einer nicht nur unbekannten, sondern auch sehr ernsthaft bedrohlichen Zukunft Entscheidungen zu treffen sind, die die sie angehenden moralischen Subjekte in ihren Handlungsoptionen allererst konstituieren. Die Formung der dargestellten Entscheidungsszenarien wäre nicht denkbar ohne unterschiedliche Zeitlichkeitsmodelle, deren Bedeutung in einer jedes moralische Subjekt betreffenden Möglichkeit liegt, sich gegen die Gegenwart zu wenden. Mögen die Filme als einzelne trivial oder allenfalls unterhaltsam erscheinen, so lässt sich in ihrer Konstellation zeigen, inwiefern jedes Handeln sich nicht so sehr für die Zukunft, sondern an der Gegenwart entscheidet.
Indo-European is a branch of Indo-Uralic which was radically transformed under the influence of a North Caucasian substratum when its speakers moved from the area north of the Caspian Sea to the area north of the Black Sea (cf. Kortlandt 2007b). As a result, Indo-European developed a minimal vowel system combined with a very large consonant inventory including glottalized stops, also grammatical gender and adjectival agreement, an ergative construction which was lost again but has left its traces in the grammatical system, especially in the nominal inflection, a construction with a dative subject which was partly preserved in the historical languages and is reflected in the verbal morphology and syntax, where it gave rise to new categories, and a heterogeneous lexicon. The Indo-Uralic elements of Indo-European include pronouns, case endings, verbal endings, participles and derivational suffixes. In the following I shall give an overview of the grammar of Proto-Indo-European as it may have been spoken around 4000 BC in the eastern Ukraine, shortly after the ancestors of the Anatolians left for the Balkans (for more recent developments I refer to Beekes 1995).
Twenty eight species of Temnocerus Thunberg, 1815 are recognized from Central America (Mexico to Panama) with eight previously described species and 20 new species as follows: T. abdominalis (Voss), T. chiapensis n. sp., T. chiriquensis (Sharp), T. confertus (Sharp), T. cyaneus n. sp., T. ellus n. sp., T. giganteus n. sp., T. guatemalenus (Sharp), T. guerrerensis n. sp., T. herediensis n. sp., T. mexicanus n. sp., T. michoacensis n. sp., T. minutus n. sp., T. niger n. sp., T. oaxacensis n. sp., T. obrieni, n. sp., T. oculatus (Sharp), T. potosi n. sp., T. pseudaeratus n. sp., T. pueblensis n. sp., T. pusillus (Sharp), T. regularis (Sharp), T. rostralis n. sp., T. rugosus n. sp., T. salvensis n. sp., T. tamaulipensis n. sp., T. thesaurus (Sharp) and T. yucatensis n. sp. Rhynchites debilis Sharp is placed in synonymy with Temnocerus guatemalenus (Sharp) and Pselaphorhynchites lindae Hamilton is placed in synonymy with Temnocerus regularis (Sharp). A key to species based on external characters and male genitalia is provided as well as digital images, aedeagus drawings, and map distributions.
The National Collection of Arachnids, Instituto de Biología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (México City) houses 476 chilopod samples, of which 197 are determined to genus and/or species. These are documented here and represent several new state records. Topotypes of eight species of centipedes described by R. V. Chamberlin also documented.
Localities are documented for the milliped Abacion texense (Loomis, 1837) (Callipodida: Abacionidae) whose distribution forms both the northern and southern ordinal limits in the Western Hemisphere. The westernmost component of Abacion Rafinesque, 1820, A. texense is the only milliped species whose range spans the Mississippi and Pecos rivers and the Rio Grande. Distribution extremes are in Hennepin County (Co.), Minnesota, in the north; Terrell and Potter cos., Texas, in the west; Alcorn Co., Mississippi, in the east; and southwestern Tamaulipas, Mexico, in the south. Occurrences are projected for southeastern South Dakota, northwestern Alabama, and the southwestern periphery of Tennessee. The type series of A. texense consists solely of the male holotype, so a neotype will be needed if this individual is ever lost, because no paratypes were officially designated.
Five new species of Orizabus Fairmaire from Mexico and Guatemala are described, illustrated, and compared with other Orizabus species: O. amalgamatus Ratcliffe and Cave, O. delgadoi Ratcliffe and Cave, O. epithecus Ratcliffe and Cave, O. mezclus Ratcliffe and Cave, and O. thomasi Ratcliffe and Cave. An identification key and a checklist of the species in the genus Orizabus are provided.
