Abstract:

The following excerpt from Proclus'Commentary on the Timaeusappears as Fr. 37 in the edition of the fragments of Numenius by Des Places.1 It is the aim of this study (1) to ascertain the original place of the fragment in his work, and (2) to show that it belongs to a second-century school of allegorical commentary on the ancient theologians, and particularly on Pherecydes of Syros, of which Numenius will have been one of the brightest luminaries.

Abstract:

One of the most familiar traits of the part-horse, part-man creatures known as silens is their keen interest in women. In Athenian vase-painting, the female companions of the silens are characterized by a variety of attributes and items of dress, and exhibit mixed feelings toward the attentions of silens. The complexities of the imagery have resulted in disagreement in modern scholarship on several points, including the identity of these females, the significance of their attributes, and the explanation of a change in their receptivity to the advances of the silens. One of the reasons for the lack of consensus in the scholarship is the fact that the imagery raises not one question but many: questions concerning iconographical method, mythology, ritual, and poetry. In what follows I have attempted to separate some of these entangled issues. I hope to show that the companions of the silens are nymphs and not maenads, and that a major change in the iconography of silens and nymphs, occurring in late sixth-century red-figure Attic vase-painting, reflects in some way developments in the Athenian dramatic genre of satyr-play.

Abstract:

The morphological ontogeny of most species of Punctoribatidae is still insufficient or unknown. Comparative characteristics of juveniles of Tutorozetes incisirostris are given for the first time in Tutorozetes based on material from southern Chile (Patagonia); and the major characteristics of juvenile instars of 15 punctoribatid species are presented, based on literature sources. The larva and nymphs of this species are generally similar to those of the other representatives of Punctoribatidae. Basic characteristics of juveniles are the body unpigmented, light yellowish or flesh-coloured with porose cuticle; gastronotic and anogenital regions folded; humeral organ absent; prodorsum stockier in larva than in nymphs and adult; gastronotic shield poorly sclerotized; prodorsal, gastronotic and ventral setae setiform, except clavate bothridial seta; larva with 12 pairs, nymphs with 15 pairs of gastronotic setae. We discuss the generic status of Tutorozetes and its possible synonymy with Minunthozetes.

Abstract:

The third stasimon of Oedipus Rex (OT) is the climax of the play, separating the conversation with the Corinthian messenger from the interrogation of the shepherd, so crucial for the narrative. Indeed, the question τίς σε, τέκνον, τίς σ’ ἔτικτε, critical for the plot, comes right at the beginning of its antistrophe. Sophocles, however, offers no easy answer to it. Instead, he provides yet another narrative misdirection, one that—for the last time—suggests that the paths of the king of Thebes and of his predecessor may have been divergent: the possibility that Oedipus’ divine ancestry would question the prophecy of Apollo. After enumerating Pan, Hermes and Apollo himself as possible parents, the song also mentions Dionysus and the ‘Heliconian nymphs’. The reference to Helicon has perplexed the readers for many years, since the text seems to focus on Cithaeron as the ‘birthplace’. As a result, editions and translations prefer the conjecture ἑλικωπίδων (Νυμφᾶν) proposed by U. von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff in 1879, over Ἑλικωνί(α)δων, the form present in all manuscripts. In this paper I argue that an analysis of our sources for Heliconian cults, an assessment of the performative context, and a close reading of the stasimon and its place in the narrative, all suggest that the manuscript reading should be retained.

The history and relationships of this taxon to related species are elucidated on the basis of literature and determinations of genetic distance and mtDNA barcodes. B. jaervii is the only representative of the B. vernus group found in northern Europe, the nymphs of which live in lakes. The population from northern Finland earlier assigned to Baetis tracheatus should be transferred to represent B. jaervii.

Abstract:

Diaphorencyrtus aligarhensis (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) is herein reported for the first time from Colombia based on specimens collected in the municipality of Palmira, department of Valle del Cauca. Adult male and female wasps of this endoparasitoid are diagnosed based on published literature and character states taken from specimens collected in the present study. The adult parasitoids were extracted from parasitized nymphs (mummies) of the Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri (Hemiptera: Liviidae). Information is provided on the differences in the morphology of parasitized nymphs of D. citri with exit holes made by the two main primary parasitoids, i.e., Tamarixia radiata (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) and D. aligarhensis. Rates of parasitization on D. citri ranged from 1.5 to 24.2 % for T. radiata and 0.3 to 1.0 % for D. aligarhensis. With the present study, the presence of D. aligarhensis in Colombia becomes the second confirmed report of the species in South America, after Ecuador.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTLittle attention has been given in scientific literature to how introduced species may act as a new host for native infectious agents and modify the epidemiology of a disease. In this study, we investigated whether an introduced species, the Siberian chipmunk (Tamias sibiricus barberi), was a potentially new reservoir host forBorrelia burgdorferisensu lato, the causative agent of Lyme disease. First, we ascertained whether chipmunks were infected by all of theB. burgdorferisensu lato genospecies associated with rodents and available in their source of infection, questing nymphs. Second, we determined whether the prevalence and diversity ofB. burgdorferisensu lato in chipmunks were similar to those of a native reservoir rodent, the bank vole (Myodes glareolus). Our research took place between 2006 and 2008 in a suburban French forest, where we trapped 335 chipmunks and 671 voles and collected 743 nymphs of ticks that were questing for hosts by dragging on the vegetation. We assayed forB. burgdorferisensu lato with ear biopsy specimens taken from the rodents and in nymphs using PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Chipmunks were infected by the threeBorreliagenospecies that were present in questing nymphs and that infect rodents (B. burgdorferisensu stricto,B. afzelii, andB. garinii). In contrast, voles hosted onlyB. afzelii. Furthermore, chipmunks were more infected (35%) than voles (16%). These results may be explained by the higher exposure of chipmunks, because they harbor more ticks, or by their higher tolerance of otherB. burgdorferisensu lato genospecies than ofB. afzelii. If chipmunks are competent reservoir hosts forB. burgdorferisensu lato, they may spill backB. burgdorferisensu lato to native communities and eventually may increase the risk of Lyme disease transmission to humans.

Abstract:

Control of the Chagas disease vector, Triatoma infestans(Klug) (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) with synthetic pesticides in Bolivia has become increasingly inefficient due to the development of resistance in the insects. In the Chaco region of Bolivia, guaraní populations have approached the problem by fumigating their houses with the smoke of native plants. Through interviews and field work with local guides, the main plant used by the guaraníes was collected and later identified as Capsicum baccatumL. var. baccatum(Solanaceae). In choice bioassays, filter papers exposed to the smoke of the plant repelled nymphs of T. infestans. Activity remained significant after storing the exposed filter papers for 9 days. Chemical analysis of smoke and literature data suggested that capsaicinoids present in the smoke were responsible for the repellent effect. The data presented provide a rationale for the use of C. baccatumvar. baccatumto control the Chagas vector bythe guaraní populations.

Abstract The effects of six average daily temperatures, 15, 20, 25, 30, 32, and 35°C, that were either constant or fluctuating over 24 h on development times of California-sourced Diaphorina citri Kuwayama nymphs were examined. Thermal performance curves for immature stages of D. citri were characterized using one linear and six nonlinear models (i.e., Ratkowsky, Lobry-Rosso-Flandrois, Lactin-2, Brière-2, Beta, and Performance-2). Daily thermal fluctuations had significant effects on development times of D. citri nymphs, which differed across experimental temperatures. Diaphorina citri nymphs reared at constant temperatures completed development faster than those reared under fluctuating profiles with equivalent temperature means. Linear model estimates of degree-days required for completion of cumulative development of D. citri were 25% lower for constant temperatures when compared with fluctuating temperature regimens. Nonlinear model estimations of optimum developmental temperature and upper theoretical temperature bounds for development were similar for individuals reared under constant and fluctuating temperatures. Nevertheless, the estimated values of lower theoretical temperature limits above which development occurred were lower under fluctuating than constant temperatures. A meta-analysis of published D. citri temperature-dependent development literature, synthesizing datasets of five globally distributed populations (Brazil, California, China, Florida, and Japan) reared under different constant temperatures on six different host plants (i.e., Citrus limonia, C. sinensis cv Natal, C. sinensis cv. Pêra, C. reticulata, Fortunella margarita, and Murraya paniculata), together with the results of this study (C. volkameriana), revealed convergence in estimates of developmental parameters. These results have implications for predicting D. citri invasion and establishment risk and subsequent population performance across various climactic gradients and geographic regions.

Abstract:

Integumental electrical resistances were measured on the antenna, pronotum, forewing, second abdominal tergite, fifth abdominal sternite and the femur of the third leg in restrained male and female Periplaneta americana. The same measurements, excepting those on antenna and wing, were made on last-instar nymphs. Electrical contact was made through two externally applied glass tubes filled with cockroach Ringer with a combined contact area of about 2 mm2. Resistances corresponding to current flows through two thicknesses of integument were measured using a current-clamping amplifier. Calculated electrical conductances tended to be higher in the antennae, pronotum and abdominal tergites than in the legs and wings. Conductances of the pronotum and abdominal tergites were significantly higher (P<0.001) in males than in females. The literature suggests that male abdominal tergites are the site of sex pheromone production. In nymphs as well as adults, the conductances of all areas, except the antennae of males, decreased following dehydration and a decline in animal water content. In most cases the magnitude of the decrease was tightly correlated with initial hydrated conductance. The data suggest that variations in regional conductances in hydrated animals are principally due to differences in dermal gland density. We argue that the decrease in conductance following dehydration is evidence of a mechanism closing dermal gland openings in times of water stress.

Abstract:

Based on the original type material, the nymphal stage of the mayfly Takobia maxillare is redescribed; in parallel, a lectotype is designated. Takobia maxillare is the type species of the genus Takobia, and an accurate and complete knowledge of its morphology is crucial to the delimitation of this problematic genus and clarification of its phylogenetic affinities. Ambiguous characters, previously reported for this species in the literature are clarified. Furthermore, two new species in the same genus are described, namely Takobia sinusopalpatasp. nov. and Takobia shughnonicasp. nov. based on the morphology of nymphs from Central Asia, supplemented with COI sequences. Implications for the systematics of Takobia and related taxa are discussed and the need for an extensive phylogenetic study of this group is stressed.

Abstract:

A new taxon of Hermanellonota or subtribe Hermanellina (Ephemeroptera: Leptophlebiidae: Atalophlebiinae) was found from Northern Brazil, in the limits of Pacaraima in Brazil and Santa Helena de Uairén in Venezuela. While nymphs of this taxon are similar to those of the genus Farrodes, the adults could not be assigned to any of the genera included in the group. In order to clarify the systematic relationship of this taxon and to provide a reliable hypothesis concerning its generic placement, we analyzed it using an available matrix from the literature and performed a new cladistic analysis. As a result we describe Rondophlebia rubra gen. nov. et sp. nov. sister to the Perissophlebiodes complex + Hermanella complex. Our analyses also shed new insights on the systematics of Hermanellonota.

This study summarises information on the occurrence of Myrmecophilus acervorum in Poland in the years 1851–2022. We collected information about 143 localities: 40 from literature and 103 unpublished. Myrmecophilus acervorum is reported from seven new regions: the Baltic Coast, Białowieża Primeval Forest, Eastern Sudety Mts, Kraków-Wieluń Upland, Podlasie Lowland, Sandomierska Lowland and Trzebnickie Hills. While until 2010 observations were rare (35 localities), in the years 2011–2022 the species was found in 108 new localities. A total of 443 individuals of M. acervorum were observed in Poland, but the sex was identified only for 138, of which 135 were mature females or female nymphs. Males were recorded only historically in the Pomeranian Lakeland. At present, these records should be treated with caution, as they are uncertain.

Full text

Abstract:

Abstract The article takes as its starting point a reading of Jorge Luis Borges’ short story Pierre Menard, autor del Quijote, focusing on the first passage from Cervantes’ Quijote that is quoted verbatim in the text. An invocation of the river nymphs and the nymph Echo („las ninfas de los ríos, la húmida y dolorosa Eco“), it is singled out by the narrator as bearing the voice of Pierre Menard despite having never been attempted by him in his project of writing Don Quijote again. I argue that the invocation of Echo does not point to a duplication of the text. Rather, Echo’s early modern acceptation, that of a dialogue partner that not only answers, but answers back and says different things with the same words, encapsulates Menard’s project as such and, beyond that, a theory of literary resonance. Paul Valery’s poems and essays, to which Borges’ story variously alludes, underpin this reading of Echo as the patron saint of a theory of resonance that accounts for the necessary openness of literary texts to deviant interpretations, in particular those that could not have been foreseen or desired by their authors.

Abstract:

In most scientific papers, female sexuality is represented from the point of view of physiology. In "History of Sexuality", Michel Foucault introduces the term "superknowledge of sexuality," stating that this notion "is not developed at the level of the individual, but at the level of culture and society." According to Foucault, the knowledge of contemporary society of sexuality coexists with the inability to realize our own sexuality. Knowledge of sexuality is rather theoretical, philosophical, analytical, but not personal.We will explore the nuances of female sexuality in the works of classics, as well as in some modern works. Even in the biblical scripture of the creation of the woman and of the original sin, Eve is present, tempting and challenging. She provokes Adam to pick up the forbidden fruit. She is chosen to commit the Fall. She gives in to the temptation. She persuades Adam to taste the fruit of the tree.How does a woman express her sexuality, is she equal in dignity to a man, is only she subject to sin, is she submissive to the man, is not she stronger than him with her emotionality?We will look for answers to these questions in Otto Weinginger's "Gender and Character", who tragically interrupted his life at the age of 23. His different views on the character of the woman, the absolute superiority of the man, her role as a pimp, are later developed or refuted in various literary and scientific works.Female sexuality is expressed in a different way. A woman is fragile, timid, even innocent in the literary works of the Marquis de Sade, but her fate is fatal. Seduction through sincerity and repentance, through obedience and the power of emotions - all this leads to a fatalism so beautifully reproduced in the feminine images of the Marquis de Sade.In the originally forbidden novel "Lady Chatterley's Lover", D. Lawrence presents a new world of love and freedom. Here, female sexuality is in conflict with the irresistible desire to break the constraints of society at that time. Society is vulgar to the open expression of female sexuality and despises the woman's desire to devote herself entirely. In the novel, sexuality is not ostentatious but interwoven with romanticism and dedication. Lawrence sharpened the contrast between the cynicism of modern thinking and the spontaneity of love. The year is 1928, the novel is like a bang.In the fifties of the last century, appeared Vladimir Nabokov`s Lolita. The novel scandalizes with its sophisticated perversity, but that is only at first glance. Nabokov is fascinated by the idea of love, love as madness, as self-forgetting, as obsession. Sexuality is devastating, the little "nymphet" is charming, dangerously seductive and insidious. Sometimes Lolita in her newly awakened sexuality is even vulgar.At a later stage, P. Modiano envelops sexuality in mystery. The character of “Villa Triste” sinks into a mysterious veil, the memories come back, everything is like in a fog, like in a slow-motion. Yvonne is vulnerable and confused, delightful in her disdain for the others, only a few steps away from the audience, a slight smile, and the magic is here. No action is required from her, only a perfect gait, a casual head, a dreamy look, and all are captivated. Beauty and perfection. The woman conquers only with her presence. Sexuality consists in the challenging smile, in the dance of the golden-red hair. Discretion and mystery. Eroticism.We finish with the novel by P. Buvivalda "Bonita Avenue". Characters are bright, memorable, non-standard. We are entering the depths of sexuality, with its cynical manifestations, but described gently and intriguingly.

Abstract:

The morphology of juvenile instars of the mite Elliptochthonius profundus Norton, 1975 (Oribatida, Elliptochthoniidae) is studied. Comparative characteristics of juveniles of the representative genera in the superfamily Parhypochthonioidea is given based on our own data and available literature sources, and the major characteristics of larvae and nymphs are presented. It can be summarized that the juveniles of parhypochthonioides have the following character states: body trichoid, i.e., the postpedal scissure of gastronotum is clearly developed; body colour whitish or pale yellowish, lacking the strong cuticular sclerotization, where the flesh cuticle is sparsely foveolate or weakly microtuberculate; the juveniles of the different genera are generally similar, but differ from one another in the shape of bothridial seta, number of gastronotic setae, setations of gnathosomal, anogenital and epimeral regions and legs, development of the genital and aggenital plates and peranal segment.

Full text

Abstract:

Cycloalexy was coined by Vasconcellos-Neto and Jolivet in 1988 and further defined by Jolivet and collaborators in 1990 in reference to a specific type of circular defence. The term has been applied to numerous organisms, including adult insects, nymphs, and even vertebrates, but has lost precision with the accumulation of anecdotal reports not addressing key elements of the behaviour as first defined. We review the literature and propose three criteria that are sufficient and necessary to define the behaviour: (1) individuals form a circle; (2) defensive attributes of the individuals are positioned on the periphery of the circle, and as a result, the periphery of the circle uniformly contains either heads or abdomens; (3) animals preemptively adopt the circle as a resting formation, meaning it is not necessary to observe predation. When these considerations are taken into account, cycloalexy appears less common in nature than the literature suggests. We argue that unequivocal cases of cycloalexy have been found only in sawflies (Tenthredinoidea: Pergidae, Argidae), leaf beetles (Chrysolemidae: Galerucinae, Cassidinae, Chrysomelinae, Criocerinae), weevils (Curculionidae:Phelypera distigma), and midges (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae,Forcipomyia). Reports of cycloalexy in caterpillars (Saturniidae: Hemileucinae:Lonomia, Papilionidae) require further documentation. We report one new case of cycloalexy in thrips (Thysanoptera) and question reports of cycloalexic behaviour in other taxa.

Abstract:

SUMMARY Halzoun syndrome, also known as nasopharyngeal linguatulosis, is a rare entity that is mostly prevalent in Eastern Mediterranean countries. The consumption of raw ovine liver and lymph nodes infested with Linguatula serrata nymphs remains a major cause of the nasopharyngeal symptoms and discomfort associated with the disease. Halzoun syndrome is a clinical diagnosis based on history and presentation. Treatment of this disease is still debated; however, our experience reveals that alcohol gargle can be a good option. Proper counselling on the hazards of eating raw liver in endemic areas is needed. Moreover, physicians should be aware of the sequence of events in the disease in order not to delay or miss the diagnosis. This communication presents a rare Lebanese case of Halzoun syndrome that offers medical implications in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of the nasopharyngeal symptoms of this syndrome, with a review of the literature.

Abstract:

Information on the morphological ontogeny of the majority species of the family Hermanniidae is still lacking. In this work, the ontogenetic instars of the Mediterranean species, Hermannia longisetosa Subías & Shtanchaeva, 2013 are studied, based on material from northwestern Spain. Comparative characteristics of juveniles of species belonging to different genera of Hermanniidae are given based on our own data and available literature sources, and the major characteristics of larvae and nymphs are presented. An updated family and generic diagnoses based on juveniles of Hermanniidae are proposed. At the moment, the juveniles of two genera, Hermannia and Phyllhermannia are known, which differ from one another in the pattern of cuticle plications of the gastronotum; number of solenidia on leg tarsi I and II; number of setae on palp femur; setal formula of leg IV in protonymph; and the arrangement of gastronotic setae of c- and d-series.

Abstract:

Precocene III (PIII, 7-ethoxy-precocene II), dissolved in acetone, was applied to eggs in the brood sac of Diploptera punctata females, at 55–56 days or 62–63 days (about 83.5 ± 1.0% or 95.5 ± 1.0% of the gestation period, respectively) after the mother's ecdysis to adult. Controls received acetone alone or no treatment. Acetone itself induced abortion in many instances and reduced the number of surviving progeny from those females that did give birth. These lethal effects were more pronounced after PIII treatment. A portion of the surviving nymphs that had been treated as eggs with PIII developed normally up to the fourth stadium, although the duration of this development, especially that of the first stadium, was longer than in the controls. In contrast, another portion of the nymphs that had hatched from precocene-treated eggs exhibited disturbed development. Treatment of the eggs in 55- to 56-day-old mothers with the highest dose still permitting hatching (40 μg of PIII in 2 μL of acetone, into the brood sac) yielded the highest proportion of disturbed development. In almost all instances of such disturbed development, the moult from the second to the third stadium was greatly delayed and the insects died in or shortly after an unsuccessful ecdysis, some of them exhibiting slightly prothetelic wings. No sign of precocious metamorphosis was observed in the first or second stadium. These results are compared with those in the literature on the effects of surgical allatectomy of the second and later instars of D. punctata. The morphogenetic role of the juvenile hormone in the early part of postembryonic development is also discussed.

Abstract:

Since its original description from the Amazonian region, the tick species Amblyomma goeldii Neumann, 1899 has been misidentified with Amblyomma rotundatum Koch, 1844 in different countries of the Neotropical region. Because of this, some authors have considered that the only confirmed records of A. goeldii were from French Guyana. Herein, we reviewed all specimens of A. goeldii that have been deposited at two tick collections in Brazil. In addition, we describe the nymphal stage of A. goeldii for the first time. A total of 10 unpublished records of the adult stage of A. goeldii are recorded from the Amazonian region of Brazil, confirming the occurrence of A. goeldii in this country. Except for one record on the snake Boa constrictor Linnaeus, all records of A. goeldii reported in the present study were from anteaters (Pilosa: Myrmecophagidae). Our results, in conjunction with previous literature records, indicate that anteaters and large snakes are important hosts for the adult stage of A. goeldii. The nymph of A. goeldii is morphologically similar to the nymphs of Amblyomma romitii Tonelli-Rondelli, 1939, Amblyomma dissimile Koch, 1844, and A. rotundatum. We present a modification of a previously published taxonomic key of Amblyomma nymphs from Brazil, in order to perform taxonomic identification of the nymph of A. goeldii based on external morphology. The geographical distribution of A. goeldii appears to be restricted to the Amazonian region. There were no previous host records for the immature stages of A. goeldii, thus it is expected that the present nymphal description will facilitate further works on the ecology of this poorly studied tick species.

Abstract:

The Baetis vernus group is known to be a taxonomically difficult group of mayflies. Morphological characters such as themandibles or gills of nymphs overlap widely. We report here that enzyme electromorph frequencies also fail to show reproductive isolation in many cases. Baetis macani has been divided in the literature into two forms, a lentic one with broader gills living in stagnant waters, while the lotic one with narrower gills lives in flowing water. We show that the two evidently represent reproductively isolated taxa, B. macani Kimmins = B. bundyae auct. nec, while the one with broader gills appears to be a new species. Baetis macani, B. subalpinus, B. liebenauae and B. vernus form a cluster that is genetically not divisible according to the recognized species boundaries.Nymph gill length differentiates, however, B. macani from B. subalpinus and B. vernus. We call for studies on population structuring andmolecular taxonomy to resolve the taxonomy and ecology of this important group of mayflies.

Abstract:

Juvenile instars of oribatid mites of the family Phenopelopidae are well known compared to most other families, however, information on the morphological ontogeny of the majority of species is still insufficient or unknown. Comparative characteristics of immatures of species of Phenopelopidae are given based on our own data and available literature sources. The major characteristics of immature instars of 11 species are presented, and the morphological ontogeny of Eupelops variatus (Mihelčič, 1957) is investigated based on material from southern Europe. From these studies, it can be generalized that the juvenile morphologies of phenopelopid genera are quite similar and uniform. The juveniles have plicate integument, marginally flattened opisthonotum, and short gastronotic setae c1, c3 and of the d-series. The juveniles of the phenopelopid species differ from one another in morphological characters such as body size, development of the prodorsal ridges, lamellar, interlamellar as well as gastronotic setae of c2, lp and h-series either in larva or nymphs, and all these characters have species-specific value.

Abstract:

Portrait historié is a term that describes portrayals of known individuals in different roles such as characters taken from the bible, mythology or literature. These portraits were especially widespread in the 18th century French and English art. In the hierarchy of genres established by the Academy, history painting was at the top and portraiture came next. Artists aspired to elevate the importance of portraits by combining it with history. This article will focus on goddesses selected by history portrait artists. Ladies of the nobility and female members of the royal families have been depicted as goddesses in many paintings. French artists Nicolas de Largillière, Jean Marc Nattier and Louise Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun; English artists George Romney and Sir Joshua Reynolds can be counted among the artists working in this genre. Mythological figures such as Diana, Minerva, Venus, Hebe, Iris, Ariadne, Circe, Medea, Cassandra, Muses, Graces, Nymphs and Bacchantes inspired the artists and their sitters. Ladies were picturised with the attributes of these divine beings.

Pest management of habanero chili (Capsicum chinense Jacq., Solanaceae) the sweetpotato whitefly Bemisia tabaci Genn. (Hemyptera: Aleyrodidae) is a key plague insect as a virus-vector, capable of causing serious economic loss. Their control is broadly based on Imidacloprid, a neonicotinoids product. B. tabaci have resistance to imidacloprid now. Some plants extracts are suggest in the literature how insect repellent properties over whiteflies, including allspice [Pimenta dioca (L.) Merrill, (Myrtaceae)], sweet basil [Ocimun basilicum L. (Lamiaceae)] and wild feverfew [Parthenium hysterophorus L.(Asteraceae)]. The preliminary screening under controlled conditions for evaluating the repellent effect of crude aqueous extracts, in a 1:1 ratio based on mass weight foliage moisture; was evaluate for each one of above-mentioned plants, against nymphs and eggs of whitefly. Results show that basil and feverfew extracts was significantly effective in preventing oviposition by adult whiteflies on habanero chili foliage, with allspice showing the lowest effect. Fields studies have to be carried out in this regards.

Full text

Abstract:

The spatial distribution of Aphis spiraecola Patch was studied in two commercial yarrow fields located in the Swiss and Italian Alps and represented by Taylor’s (1961) power law. The respective parameters indicate a highly aggregated distribution and lead to a high optimum sample size of 400-500 plants in the design of a sampling program. Opportunities for reducing the sampling efforts are discussed. The infestation patterns were studied on the basis of Vansickle’s (1977) time varying distributed delay adequate for modelling the dynamics of age-structured populations. Published literature data were used to parametrize the functions representing the temperature-dependent duration and survival of the nymphal and adult stage. Likewise, literature data were available to obtain reliable estimates for the parameters of the fecundity function comprising the reproductive profile and the number of nymphs produced at different temperatures. The field data were used to parametrize the functions for wing formation and a compound mortality compromising the effects of plant senescence, stem cutting and natural enemies. The model satisfactorily represented the observed infestation patterns. However, there are opportunities for improving parameter estimation and validation. Moreover, the separation of the compound mortality into host plant and natural enemy effects would improve the mechanistic basis of the model and lead towards a tool that could be used to study bottom-up and top-down effects in the yarrow-aphid-natural enemy system.

Kakawin Arjuna Wiwaha tells of Sang Arjuna's marriage to a female companion who has a woman's role and position. Diah Supraba has an angel who is also implied in Kakawin Arjuna Wiwaha, who have their respective roles and positions that inspire women in the era of globalization. The purpose of this study was to analyze the religious values contained in kakawin arjuna wiwaha that can be applied by women. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative. The data collection technique in this research is a literature study on Kakawin Arjunawiwāha which consists of 36 pupuh, 354 stanzas and 24 kinds of metres. This Kakawin was written by Mpu Kanwa during the reign of King Airlangga (1019-1042) between 1028 and 1035 AD. This study describes the religious values shown by women in Arjuna Wiwaha's kakawin, namely 1) Purity (sivam), a woman is obliged has purity both physically and spiritually in her like a Goddess. 2) A woman who has a strong patience is Diah Suprabha, ordered by Hyang Indra to investigate the secret of the power of a powerful giant named Niwatakawaca, with full devotion to carry out the task at hand with great patience; 3) Diah Tilotama's love is so great and sincere, it can be seen from the restlessness of her heart seeing her husband who is upset and trying to comfort his husband's heart; 4) The nymphs are verydevoted/ obedient to everything that is ordered by Lord Indra 5) The nymphs (Diah Suprabha) are loyal to the king of heaven, so that all orders are never rejected even though they have to sacrifice their bodies 6) The angel who is most seen making sacrifices is Diah Suprabha who was willing to sacrifice himself to go directly to the enemy from Indraloka who was the most feared, namely Niwatakawaca.

Abstract:

For a variety of agronomic reasons, landraces have strategic importance for cowpea Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. genetic breeding programs. The aim of the current research was to identify black aphid, Aphis craccivora Koch resistance in cowpea landraces. Twenty-three landraces from different regions of the state of Ceará, Brazil, were compared to four literature-cited standards: BRS Guariba and TVu 408 P2 (resistant); BR 17-Gurguéia and VITA 7 (susceptible). Experiments were conducted in a greenhouse located at Campus do Pici, Universidade Federal do Ceará, in Fortaleza, Ceará state, Brazil. A completely randomized block design was used, with six replicates, each composed of one plant in a 300 mL pot. Plants were individually infested with five six-day-old adult insects. Adults were subsequently evaluated two days after infestation and nymphs at four days. Six landraces were highly resistant (Um-named 1-DIP, Feijão de arrancada, Feijão moitinha, Feijão de moita, Cara preta and Roxim miúdo) to levels compatible to the BRS Guariba standard. Three other landraces (Feijão da Bahia, Cojó and Feijão da Consuelo Rocha) showed moderate resistance, similar to the TVu 408 P2 standard. In addition to the high genetic variability found in the landraces, antibiosis was the main resistance mechanism observed.

Abstract:

Abstract The idea that mythos and logos are incompatible, and that truth is a product of scientific and dialectical thinking, was certainly disproven by later Platonic philosophers. Deploying the works of Hesiod and Homer, Homeric Hymns and other such literature, they considered myth a valuable and significant augment to philosophical discourse. Plato’s denigration of myth gave his followers an incentive to read myth as allegory. The Stoics and first-century philosophers such as Philo, treated allegory as a legitimate interpretive strategy. The Middle Platonists incorporated myth, for example, deifying the Monad and Dyad, as did 2nd century Platonists. Plutarch’s Isis and Osiris (2nd century CE), for example, equates Isis and Osiris with form and matter: the god (Osiris) sows in matter (Isis) logoi (forms or ideas) from himself (De Iside. 372F). Porphyry’s allegorizing of Plato’s Cave of the Nymphs is another example. Plotinus is a strong influence on how the late Neoplatonists regarded myth. This paper argues that these philosophers’ use of allegory prepared the way for the Neoplatonists treatment of myth as inspired symbolism. Proclus and Syrianus, as reported by Hermias, did something more extreme by using mythology to construct inspired symbolic argument. Mythos becomes another type of logos, a vehicle for representing the invisible world of being, another kind of truth that can even serve a function in anagogic ascent.
