Ceratopogon azari Dominiak, Alwin & Gilka 2014
Ceratopogon azari Dominiak, Alwin & Giłka, 2014 Ceratopogon azari Dominiak, Alwin & Giłka, 2014: 138 (male, Lebanon). Diagnosis. Males differ from all other species of the genus by the following combination of characters: apicolateral processes of tergite IX elongate, each bearing two setae, parameres fused on proximal 1/3, aedeagus with seed-like medial prongs, lateral prongs lightly sclerotized with setose apices. Material examined. LEBANON, Anti-Lebanon Mts., Maaraboun village near Baalbek (in the locality named Sheaibe), N 33˚ 55.376 E 36˚15.490, altitude 1781 m, stream and helocrene, 3 males, 3 females, 5.V.2012, net, leg. P. Dominiak. Distribution. A montane species living in Anti-Lebanon Mountains. Discussion. Ceratopogon including 41 extant species (Borkent & Grogan 1995) is a relictual Boreal genus which has Holarctic distribution (Szadziewski 2008). The species C. azari extends the southernmost distribution for this genus in the Western Palaearctic. This montane species was collected at altitude 1781 m a.s.l.Published as part of Alwin-Kownacka, Alicja, Szadziewski, Ryszard & Szwedo, Jacek, 2016, Biting midges of the tribe Ceratopogonini (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) from the Middle East, with keys and descriptions of new species, pp. 551-572 in Zootaxa 4079 (5) on pages 560-561, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4079.5.3, http://zenodo.org/record/105087
Book extract: Never forget your name: the children of Auschwitz by Alwin Meyer
27 January is Holocaust Memorial Day when we remember the six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust alongside the millions of other people killed under Nazi persecution and in subsequent genocides. 27 January marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp. While 232,000 children and juveniles were deported to Auschwitz, only 750 were liberated in the death camp at the end of January 1945. For Holocaust Memorial Day, we share an extract from the new Polity book, Never Forget Your Name by Alwin Meyer, which is the culmination of research and interviews with children liberated from Auschwitz and their descendants, sensitively reconstructing their stories. More information about the book can be found on the Polity website. Never Forget Your Name: The Children of Auschwitz. Alwin Meyer (translated by Nick Somers). Polity. 2022
Representation of Stereoisomers in ALWIN
Tlhe well-known Cahn-lngold-Prelog method of specifying the stereoisomers is introduced within the framework of ALWIN-Algorithmic Wiswesser Notation. Given the structural diagram, the structural ALWIN is first formed; the speclflcation symbols are then introduced at the appropriate places to describe the stereoisomers
Kolenohelea levantica Alwin-Kownacka & Szadziewski & Szwedo 2016, sp. nov.
Kolenohelea levantica Szadziewski & Alwin sp. nov. (Figures 3, 4b) Diagnosis. Males of this species can be easy distinguished by having very long, blunt and singular or bilobed apicolateral processes, each bearing one small seta. Parameres slightly S-shaped, weakly pointed. Female unknown. Description. Male. Head. Uniformly brown. Antenna uniformly brown, all flagellomeres separated. Three distal flagellomeres elongated (Fig. 3a). Total length of flagellum 0.65–0.73 mm, AR 1.03–1.15. Palpus brown, slender, 0.18–0.23 mm long. Third palpal segment slender with distinct sensory pit (Fig. 3b), PR 2.5–3.5. Thorax. Dark brown. Scutum and scutellum with numerous setae. Wing pale, two radial cells well marked. First one narrow and about 1.6–1.9 times shorter than second one. Wing length 1.10–1.32 mm, CR 0.64. Legs brown and stout, tibiae armed with strong posterior bristles. Claws small and equal on all legs. Fore leg. Coxa slightly darker than rest of leg. Tarsus slightly paler than tibia. First tarsomere armed with one apical, one subbasal spines and 1–3 central, more delicate spines. Second and third tarsomeres each with one apical, very delicate spine. Fourth tarsomere cordiform, bearing ventrally at apex a pair of hyaline sensilla. TR(I) 2.0–2.1. Mid leg. Coxa and trochanter darker than rest of leg. First tarsomere armed with two apical, two subbasal and three central spines, all more delicate than on fore leg. Second tarsomere with two apical spines, third and fourth tarsomeres each with one apical spine. Fourth tarsomere with pair of hyaline sensilla at apex. TR(II) 1.9. Hind leg. Coxa and trochanter darker than rest of leg. Femur swollen. Tibial comb with seven large setae. Tarsus slightly paler than tibia. Basitarsus bent, with one complete row of palisade setae, one apical and one subbasal spine present. TR(III) 1.9– 2.0. Abdomen. Dark brown. Genitalia (Figs 3 c-g). Sternite IX short, with indistinct caudal margin. Tergite IX with very long (134 µm), blunt, singular or bilobed apicolateral processes; each bearing one small seta (Figs 3c, g). Gonocoxite 0.33 mm long, broad, slightly expanded at middle, with distinct ventral and dorsal apodemes (Fig. 3c, d). Gonostylus 0.24 mm long, almost straight, with blunt apex. Parameres slightly S-shaped, strongly sclerotized; apex weakly pointed (Figs 3e, 4b, c). Aedeagus triangular with bicorned apex and distinct ribs on lateromedian surfaces; basal arch very low (Fig. 3f). Female. Unknown. Distribution. Israel and Lebanon. Material examined. Holotype: male. ISRAEL. Nahal Qumeran, 22.III.1993, leg. A. Freidberg [TAU]. Paratype: LEBANON. Jezzine, Pont Al Khalass, 7.IX.2013, 1 male, leg. A. Alwin [CEI UG]. Etymology. Specific epithet is derived from historical name of the area of presence of the species—the Levant. Discussion. The holotype from Israel is distinctly darker and bigger than the paratype from Lebanon, moreover the holotype has bilobed apicolateral processes while in Lebanese specimen apicolateral processes are single. We treat these differences as infraspecific variability as noted in Kolenohelea calcarata (Szadziewski 1992). This species is very similar to Kolenohelea calcarata Goetghebuer, 1920 from the Palaearctic and K. leonina de Meillon & Wirth, 1987 and K. dycei de Meillon & Wirth, 1981 from the Afrotropical Region. Parameres in K. calcarata are almost straight to slightly C-shaped with flat sharp tips (Fig. 4a), while in K. levantica parameres are more stout and S-shaped, and their tips are cylindrical and more blunt (Figs 4b, c). K. leonina and K. dycei have S-shaped parameres and aedeagus with bilobed apex like in K. levantica. However, both African species have more slender parameres, especially at the base, and gonostyli armed with distinct apical teeth.Published as part of Alwin-Kownacka, Alicja, Szadziewski, Ryszard & Szwedo, Jacek, 2016, Biting midges of the tribe Ceratopogonini (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) from the Middle East, with keys and descriptions of new species, pp. 551-572 in Zootaxa 4079 (5) on pages 561-563, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4079.5.3, http://zenodo.org/record/105087

An analysis and comparison of the choreographic processes of Alwin Nikolais, Murray Louis, and Phyllis Lamhut
The purpose of this study was to investigate what each of three professional choreographers perceived to be his choreographic process and to present an analysis and comparison of the information. Criteria used in selection of the three subjects were established and Alwin Nikolais, Murray Louis, and Phyllis Lamhut were selected as subjects for the study. The four areas of basic concern for the study were decided: motivation for choreographing; creative process; use and function of the dancers; and evaluation of choreography. Questions basic to the study were determined and questions were then formulated for use in interviewing the subjects. The interviews with each subject were taped in their New York studios and then transcribed, analyzed, discussed, and comparisons were made between the choreographic processes of the three subjects. A summary chart of each choreographer1s key responses to questions basic to the study was placed in the appendices. A comparison chart of the key responses of all three subjects and a chart containing the comparative analysis of the choreographic processes of each of the subjects was placed at the conclusion of Chapter Six
