Data for: Communicating physics-based wave model predictions of coral reefs using Bayesian Belief Networks
Bayesian belief network files for beach toe significant wave conditions on coral reefs, developed using wave predictions from Baldock et al (2015).There is one network (Hs_toe_*.neta, Netica v5.18 files) that has been trained using the case file Hs_toe.cas, with three different learning algorithms, counting (Hs_toe_C.neta), expectation-maximization (Hs_toe_EM.neta) and gradient descent (Hs_toe_GA.neta).ReferenceBaldock, T.E., Golshani, A., Atkinson, A., Shimamoto, T., Wu, S., Callaghan, D.P. and Mumby, P.J., 2015.

Does a more sophisticated storm erosion model improve probabilistic erosion estimates?
The dependency between the accuracy/uncertainty of storm erosion exceedance estimates obtained via a probabilistic model and the level of sophistication of the structural function (storm erosion model) embedded in the probabilistic model is assessed via the application of Callaghan et al.'s (2008) Joint Probability Model (JPM) at Narrabeen beach, Australia with three different structural functions: (a) Kriebel and Dean (1993) (analytical); (b) SBEACH (semiempirical); and (c) XBeach (fully process based). Results indicate that the accuracy is greatest for JPM-SBEACH and lowest for JPM-XBeach. The most uncertain results are given by JPM-XBeach while the most robust results are given by JPM-SBEACH. Thus, it appears that increasing the level of sophistication of the structural function beyond the semi-empirical SBEACH model, may not always lead to better results and may even be counter-productive.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience
Pseudotinea hemis HALL & CALLAGHAN 2003, comb. n.
Pseudotinea hemis (Schaus, 1927) comb. n. (figures 4A–D, 9A, B, 13) Calydna hemis Schaus, 1927: 73. Type locality: Santa Catarina, Brazil. Holotype W USNM [examined]. Identification and taxonomy Average FW length, both sexes: 14.5 mm. Male Pseudotinea hemis closely resembles only P. gagarini, but its postdiscal orange patches on both dorsal wing surfaces are considerably narrower, that on the fore wing being divided in cell Cu2, it has a prominent postdiscal whitish band on the ventral hind wing that extends from the costal to anal margin without a continuous black band proximally, and it has more prominent submarginal spots on both ventral wing surfaces. As the female of P. gagarini is unknown, female P. hemis most closely resembles that of P. volcanicus. It differs on the dorsal surface by having fore wing postdiscal orange that extends to the costa, and on the ventral surface by having the same prominent postdiscal whitish band on the hind wing as the male. The female P. hemis specimen in the ZMHU bears Stichel’s manuscript label ‘bombax’, but the specimen was not collected until 1930, shortly before his death, and he clearly never had time to publish the name. Biology Nothing is known about the biology of this very rare species. Given its rarity and restricted range, and the human threat to its habitat, P. hemis must be considered vulnerable in conservation terms. Distribution This species is only known from the coastal Serra do Mar range in Paraná and Santa Catarina states in south-east Brazil (see figure 14). However, it should be looked for in the Serra do Mar of Rio Grande do Sul state to the south, and in the inland Serra Geral range of Santa Catarina and Paraná states. Specimens examined Brazil: Paraná, Lapa, 1 W SMF; Santa Catarina, Blumenau, Rio Lacisz (December), 1 X ZMHU; No specific locality, 1 W USNM.Published as part of HALL, JASON P.

Pseudotinea caprina HALL & CALLAGHAN 2003, comb. n.
Pseudotinea caprina (Hewitson, 1859) comb. n. (figures 5A, B, 10A–D) Calydna caprina Hewitson, 1859: 93. Type locality: Brazil. Syntype W BMNH [examined]. Identification and taxonomy Average FW length: male 17.5 mm. Pseudotinea caprina is a highly distinctive species known only from males. Its ventral surface is most similar to those of the two other south-east Brazilian species, P. hemis and P. gagarini, but there are no prominently continuous pale or dark transverse bands on the hind wing, and the fore wing ground colour is predominantly a darker brown. Pseudotinea caprina is instantly recognizable on the dorsal surface by the single white postdiscal patch on the fore wing. The male genitalia are perhaps most similar to P. gagarini, but the right-hand aedeagal cornutus is flat instead of rolled, with shorter more closely spaced serrations, and the left-hand one has fewer, larger and more rounded spines. Pseudotinea caprina superficially resembles Pachythone robusta Lathy (incertae sedis section [four fore wing radial veins]), from Mato Grosso, Brazil, but this species has even distal margins on both wings, with a pointed hind wing, a falcate fore wing apex, and a concave fore wing costa; the white patch on the dorsal fore wing is positioned more distally and slightly closer to the costal margin, and the ventral surface is more uniformly patterned without such large white blotches. The sympatric Lepricornis atricolor Butler (Riodinini), has an identical dorsal wing pattern to P. caprina except for variably prominent interneural white rays at the wing bases, but its ventral pattern is the same as that of the dorsal surface and the distal wing margins are not scalloped. Biology Nothing is known about the biology of this very rare species, but the occurrence of several sympatric species with very similar black and white dorsal wing patterns, including species in the genera Riodina Westwood, Melanis Hübner and Lepricornis C. and R. Felder (all Riodinini) (see d’Abrera, 1994), suggests that it may be involved in a mimetic relationship with these species. Pseudotinea caprina is another south-east Brazil endemic that should be considered vulnerable in conservation terms. Distribution This species is currently only known from the Serra do Paranapiacaba region of eastern Paraná state and from central Rio de Janeiro state in south-east Brazil (see figure 14). This distribution suggests that it should also be found in mountainous areas such as the Serra do Mar in intervening São Paulo state and perhaps also southern Minas Gerais state. Within Paraná state it should also be looked for in the Serra Geral further inland, which also extends into northern Santa Catarina state to the south. Specimens examined Brazil: Rio de Janeiro, Paineiras (May), 1 W UFP; Paraná, Castro, 2 W BMNH; no locality data, 1 W BMNH.Published as part of HALL, JASON P.
