No full textAnne Watts Baker collected the Newcomb diaries and other material pertaining to the Reynolds and Matthews families of Shackelford County, Texas.Born in Mansfield, Connecticut, Samuel Pierce Newcomb (1839-1870) moved to Missouri in 1855 and then Texas the next year. As an organizer of Stephens County in 1860, Samuel served as the first county clerk. In 1862 he married Susan Emily Reynolds (b. 1848), with whom he had one child. Samuel fought for the Confederate Army during the Civil War and in 1864 he joined the state militia to protect the frontier from Native Americans raids. The Newcombs moved to Fort Davis in Stephens County, Texas, where Samuel helped establish the school at which he taught in 1865. Following the war, the family built a home near Stone Ranch, where they had lived with Susan’s family. Samuel founded a general store near Fort Griffin before dying of measles in 1870. Following her husband’s death, Susan lived with her parents in Weatherford and traveled to Missouri. She would later marry would later marry Nathan L. Bartholomew.--Hunt, William R.

Balke 2704” [green label, printed], “ AUSTRALIA, WA, Batavia Coast, Kalbarri N.P., Ross Graham Lookout, 5.9.2002, 27°33´S 114°25´E, Hendrich leg./Loc. 19/183”, “ PARATYPE <i>Antiporus kalbarriensis</i> sp.n. Hendrich & Watts des. 2009” [red label, printed] (CLH).</p> <p> <b>Etymology</b>. Named after the Kalbarri National Park where part of the type material was collected.</p> <p> <b>Description</b>. Measurements. TL = 3.6–3.8 mm (holotype 3.8 mm); TL-H = 3.3–3.5mm (holotype 3.5 mm); MW = 1.95–2.05 mm (holotype 2.0 mm).</p> <p> <b>Colour</b>. Upper side yellowish-brown; portions of elytron and sutural lines a bit darker, sutural lines broadly bordered with broad pale strip, apical portions lighter (Fig. 2). Venter yellowish, including pronotum, epipleuron, metaventrite, metacoxal plate, prosternal process, legs and abdominal sternites. All antennomeres completely pale yellowish.</p> <p> <b>Sculpture</b>. Dorsal surface strongly, densely and evenly punctured throughout; those on head weaker and sparser, a little smaller than eye facet. Pronotum and elytron with narrow but well marked lateral beading. Microreticulation on head and pronotum fine, moderately impressed, on elytron very fine and almost unvisible. Ventral surface; punctures very dense, microreticulation similar to that on elytron. Prosternal process narrowly lanceolate, rounded tip, almost keeled in cross section, slightly narrowed between procoxae. Metacoxal lines raised, moderately separated, subparallel in posterior half, diverging to about twice their narrowest width in anterior half.</p> <p> <b>Male</b>. Protarsi moderately expanded, robust; single proclaw thickened, strongly bent near base, continously narrowing to sharp point at apex, with slightly curved large tooth at base (Fig. 5). Mesotibia robust, broadly but weakly indented on inner side in middle. Seta tufts on mesotrochanters somewhat thicker than on female. Median lobe of aedeagus in lateral view rather thin, elongated, in ventral view symmetric tapering towards tip (Fig. 4).</p> <p> <b>Female</b>. Pro- and mesotarsi narrower than in males, not expanded. Proclaws simple. Mesotibia narrow.</p> <p> <b>Affinities</b>. The new species appears closest to <i>A. bakewellii</i>, <i>A. jenniferae</i> and <i>A. simplex</i>. From <i>A. bakewellii</i> (TL = 3.1–3.45 mm) (Figs 1, 3) it differs by its larger size, less marked and more diffuse elytral colour pattern, the more parallel sided and elongated form of the median lobe, and the robust and well developed spine at the base of the claw on the male protarsi (compare Watts 1978: 65 and Watts 1997: 39). From the smaller <i>A. jenniferae</i> (TL = 3.4–3.6 mm) it can be distinguished by its yellowish tarsi (totally black in <i>A. jenniferae</i>), and the form of the aedeagus which is slender and tapering to the tip in <i>A. kalbarriensis</i> <b>sp.n.</b>. From the slightly smaller (TL = 3.5–3.7 mm) <i>A. simplex</i> Watts, 1978 from Queensland, <i>A. kalbarriensis</i> <b>sp.n.</b> can be well separated by its more elongated median lobe of aedeagus, which is more tapered at the tip, and its larger and more robust spine at the base of the claw on the male protarsi as well as a stronger dorsal colour pattern which is virtually absent in <i>A. simplex</i> (compare Watts 1978: 65 and Watts 1997: 39). In the key given in Watts 1997 the species will run to couplet 7.</p> <p> <b>Distribution</b>. Western Australia, Murchison District. Only known from two localities along the Murchison River (Fig. 6).</p> <p> <b>Habitat</b>. At both localities the specimens were collected from half-shaded (sedges at the banks), shallow, sandy backwater pools, with dense mats of Chara and other floating vegetation, beside the Murchison River (Fig. 7). The bottom consisted of fine sand with a thin layer of mud and plant debris (Fig. 8).

Test pattern for dielectric properties of thin films at microwave frequencies
No full textThe evaluation of the dielectric properties of ferroelectric thin films, at high frequencies, is relevant because they are goo candidates for phase and frequency agile microwave components which are used in circuits such as phase shifters, filters, and local oscillators. Recently, some measuring procedures and main expressions for general analytical formula used in the determination of the dielectric properties of thin films at microwave have been presented.
This work describes the methods that involve coplanar waveguide probes (CPW). A finite element analysis has been made on Metal-Insulator-Metal test structure to calculate some parasitic elements that cannot be estimated from measured data. A comparison between different measuments methods is presented
