Flowering & Fruiting: Flowering March–May and fruiting April–June. Habitat & distribution: The species grows on hill slopes of pine forests, on road margins and in low grassland vegetation at an elevation of 1500–1700 m a.s.l. The associate species to Geranium ocellatum var. albiflorum are Bidens pilosa Linnaeus (1753: 832), Potentilla indica (Andrews) Wolf (1904: 661); Geranium nepalense Sweet (1820: 12), Stellaria media (L.) Villars (1789: 615) and Viola canescens Wallich (1824: 450). The new variety is known only from the type locality, Kandi Bagriyonki, Uttarakhand state, in India. Therefore, it is a circumscribed endemism, same feature was also observed in other hot spots in the world (e.g. Comes 2004, Nowak et al. 2011, Wagensommer et al. 2020), some of which with biological properties may be useful for mankind (e.g. Lozano et al. 2005, Perrino et al. 2021). Etymology: The variety epithet ‘ albiflorum ’ refers to the character of the corolla which in the variety is white coloured at base. Preliminary IUCN conservation assessment: Geranium ocellatum var. albiflorum is known from the type locality (Kandi Bagriyonki, Uttarakhand state, India) and consists of a population of about 43 individuals in a single location on an area of about 2 km 2. Further, more survey was conducted in nearby areas without success. The new variety is under threat due to habitat loss because of anthropogenic activities and forest fire. Based on ‘ Extent of Occurrence’ (Criterion B1: EOO <100 km 2) and ‘ Area of Occupancy (Criterion B2: AOO <10 km 2) together with a single location (subcriterion ‘a’) and continuing decline in extent of occurrence and area of occupancy (subcriterion ‘b’ (i,ii)) and in addition a very small restricted population with number of mature individuals <50 (Criterion D) the new variety is assessed here as ‘Critically Endangered [CR B1 ab(i,ii)+ B2 ab(i,ii)+D]’ (IUCN 2019).Published as part of Hurrah, Imtiyaz Ahmad, Bagri, Ajendra Singh, Singh, Ankit & Wagh, Vijay Vishnu, 2022, A new variety of Geranium ocellatum (Geraniaceae) from Uttarakhand, India, pp. 271-279 in Phytotaxa 530 (3) on pages 272-275, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.530.3.2, http://zenodo.org/record/583595
Botanical origin and chemical composition of bee pollens collected from Apis cerana hives domesticated in the Pauri Garhwal, Western Himalaya, India
Full text linkThe present investigation aims to determine the botanical origin and chemical composition of bee pollen samples (n =22) harvested from Apis cerana hives domesticated in Pauri Garhwal (Uttarakhand, India). The majority (95%) of the samples were unifloral in their botanical origin. All the identified pollens belonged to eighteen plant families, among which Rutaceae, Asteraceae and Brassicaceae were found dominant. The chemical parameters soluble sugars, starch, crude protein, amino acids and phenolic contents were analyzed calorimetrically and were found in the range from 0.2 to 26.09 mg/g, 0.22 to 11.04 mg/g, 13.40 to 191.41 mg/g, 2.01 to 6.48 mg/g, and 5.10 to 35.50 mg GAE/g, respectively. Statistically significant differences (p<0.05) were observed between the chemical contents of the analyzed samples and a moderate correlation (r= 0.40; n=22) was observed between total soluble sugars and crude protein. Bee pollens as a good source of nutrition, medicine and dietary supplement for both humans and bees, demonstrate the important need to define bee pollen from different regions of India in order to develop bee pollen quality standards
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
