Very small, elongate body with distinctive paleal notochaetae coloured deep yellow to bright gold. Paleae in neat, slightly ‘prickly’, raised fans over dorsum ie. not completely flattened as in other <i>Paleanotus</i> species. Neuropodia extend a little beyond notopodia.</p> <p>Prostomium with 2 pairs large, dark maroon eyes often merged; median antenna slender, subulate; large, glandular nuchal fold covers posterior prostomium. Segment 2 (chaetigerous segment 1) with 2–4 slender, pointed paleae with 3 ribs (Fig. 8 A, B).</p> <p>Notochaetae of mid-body notopodium composed of 2 slender, pointed laterals with 4–5 ribs; subunit 1 paleae usually absent, sometimes 1–2 small spines present (Fig. 8 C). Main paleae number 6–8 with 13–15 (16) ribs. Paleae with rounded to slight sloping brow, robust margin serration; broad, curved apices. At moderate magnification superior surface of main paleae appears smooth; at high magnification ribs appear thickened, especially basally, with about 4–6 b.l. ribs. Slender dorsal cirri about 2/3 length of main paleae fan (Figs 1 I; 8K; 9). Median paleae number 3; distinctive narrow shape with sloping brow. Lizard Island material median paleae slender with distinct ‘upswept’, broad apices, 8–11 (12) ribs (Fig. 8 E, D). Heron Island, New Caledonian median paleae broader with 9–12 ribs (Fig. 8 K, L). Median paleae appear smooth; under high magnification 5 b.l. ribs visible, especially basally.</p> <p>Neurochaetal types of mid-body neuropodium composed of 2 superior, very slender falcigers; about 4 midsuperior falcigers; 6–8 mid-group falcigers. Latter three groups with pronounced basal serrations. Inferior group of shorter falcigers with slender blades, number 4–6. Total number about 20 (Fig. 8 F–J). Ventral cirri short, subulate.</p> <p> <b>Remarks.</b> <i>Paleanotus chrysos</i> n. sp. has the smallest maximum body segment number and length compared to all other species described in this paper; e.g., mature GBR specimen 24E, length 2.6 mm, width 0.75 mm; the New Caledonian specimen, 20E and length 3.7 mm. <i>Paleanotus chrysos</i> n. sp. is coloured deep yellow in northern GBR specimens, deep mustard yellow to gold in reefs off Townsville, and bright brassy gold in material from Heron Island, southern GBR: a depth of notochaetal pigmentation not seen in any of the other small <i>Paleanotus</i> species.</p> <p> <i>Paleanotus chrysos</i> n. sp. is further differientated by possession of pointed lateral paleae with small number of ribs and short spine/s and the absence of sub-unit 1 paleae. The median paleae shape is unique and horizontal striae are observed more widely separated in the basal quarter of paleae becoming finer distally (Fig. 8 E). Neurochaetal types are similar to those of other species but possess a greater degree of basal serration, particularly of the midgroup falcigers (Fig. 8 G–I). An ovigerous female paratype specimen (starting to disintegrate), has large eggs present from chaetiger 6, measuring 200–250 µm in diameter (Fig. 9).</p> <p> Body size and chaetal morphology of individuals from northern and southern GBR specimens, reefs off Townsville and New Caledonia overall agrees. Lizard Island material possesses the narrowest median paleae as do <i>P. chrysos</i> n. sp. from reefs off Townsville. Heron Island specimens exhibits some broader median paleae as well as the narrower ones; the New Caledonian individual has mainly broad median paleae (cf Fig. 8 D, E & K, L).</p> <p> A New Caledonian specimen is cited as ‘ <i>Paleanotus</i> LI’ in Wiklund <i>et al.</i> (2009). The SMNH specimen on loan for this study is entire so another <i>Paleanotus</i> from the same collection must have been used for the DNA analysis. As there was no morphological description in the paper, a designated species name for the DNA individual is unknown. Future <i>Paleanotus</i> genetic analyses with named species may be able to reveal its identity.</p> <p> A Philippine individual belonging to <i>Paleanotus chrysos</i> species complex was collected from an encrusted habitat similar to habitats of <i>P. chrysos</i> n. sp. from the GBR. Chaetal types are also very similar e.g., slender lateral paleae and spines, and the egg size is the same. However the main and median paleae have even more elevated apices; paleael sculpture is different with no b.l. ribs on main paleae and the median paleae possess a central raised rib. This specimen appears part of the <i>chrysos</i> complex and may prove to be a new species. Slender, pointed laterals, often accompanied by spines in <i>Paleanotus chrysos</i> n. sp. are also seen in the <i>P. silus</i> n. sp. species complex but the main and median paleae shape are different between the species. <i>P. chrysos</i> has been found sympatric with <i>Paleanotus adornatus</i> n. sp. in coral rubble collections from Lizard Island, GBR.</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> The species name, <i>chrysos,</i> is derived from the Greek meaning ‘gold’ and refers to the distinctive colour of the notochaetal paleae.</p> <p> <b>Habitat / Distribution.</b> Recorded from the Coral Sea: Lizard Island, reefs off Townsville and Heron Island, GBR, NE coast of Australia and New Caledonia. <i>Paleanotus chrysos</i> n. sp. appears to favour a complex habitat of encrusted coral rubble, red algae, sponges as well as fine algae on sand; depth 2− 30 m.</p>Published as part of <i>Watson, Charlotte, 2015, Seven new species of Paleanotus (Annelida: Chrysopetalidae) described from Lizard Island, Great Barrier Reef, and coral reefs of northern Australia and the Indo-Pacific: two cryptic species pairs revealed between western Pacific Ocean and the eastern Indian Ocean, pp. 707-732 in Zootaxa 4019 (1)</i> on pages 726-729, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4019.1.24, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/234245">http://zenodo.org/record/234245</a>

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

The Right to Strike under the United States Constitution: Theory, Practice, and Possible Implications for Canada
No full textAnswering critics of the Canadian Supreme Court's judgment in B.C. Health, the author argues that the Court laid the foundation for a principled and durable doctrine protecting constitutional labour rights, one that goes directly to the heart of the matter — the inequality of workers’ power in the employment relation. In the author’s view, two paths could lead from B.C. Health to the recognition of Charter protec- tion for a right to strike: one that treats the right as an accessory to col- lective bargaining, and one that upholds the right directly on the basis of the Charter values of equality and participation. The author supports the latter approach, contending that constitutional rights should be defined in relation to fundamental values, in a way that is not contingent on time-bound or fact-sensitive assessments about the role of strikes within a particular collective bargaining regime. Although a Charter right to strike may involve the courts in difficult choices about when to defer to legislative policy decisions, and courts may lack the institutional capac- ity to deal effectively with labour law issues, the author points out that judges can look to ILO standards for expert guidance. Noting that the U.S. experience in this area might be of considerable use to Canadians, the author concludes by providing an overview of American case law concerning a constitutional right to strike.Peer reviewe
G-Rank: Unsupervised Continuous Learn-to-Rank for Edge Devices in a P2P Network
No full textRanking algorithms in traditional search engines are powered by enormous training data sets that are meticulously engineered and curated by a centralized entity. Decentralized peer-to-peer (p2p) networks such as torrenting applications and Web3 protocols deliberately eschew centralized databases and computational architectures when designing services and features. As such, robust search-and-rank algorithms designed for such domains must be engineered specifically for decentralized networks, and must be lightweight enough to operate on consumer-grade personal devices such as a smartphone or laptop computer. We introduce G-Rank, an unsupervised ranking algorithm designed exclusively for decentralized networks. We demonstrate that accurate, relevant ranking results can be achieved in fully decentralized networks without any centralized data aggregation, feature engineering, or model training. Furthermore, we show that such results are obtainable with minimal data preprocessing and computational overhead, and can still return highly relevant results even when a user’s device is disconnected from the network. G-Rank is highly modular in design, is not limited to categorical data, and can be implemented in a variety of domains with minimal modification. The results herein show that unsupervised ranking models designed for decentralized p2p networks are not only viable, but worthy of further research.https://github.com/awrgold/G-RankComputer Scienc
