Camposella insignata Cole 1919, n. sp.
No full textC. insignata n. sp. ♂. —Length 13 mm., length of antennae 5 mm. Head and eyes black with black pile. Eyes contiguous above and widely separated below the antennae. Antennae contiguous at base. first joint scarcely visible and yellow, second joint small, black and ring-like. The third antenna] joint has a founded. short basal portion which expands into a very large surface, flattened. very thin and rounded at the end. The third joint is about four times as long as the head and about 6- io as wide as long‘ it is velvety black and destitute of pile. Proboscis rudimentary, slender, cylindrical and pointed, covered with very short black pile. Face black. deeply excavated below the antennae (see Pl. XI, fig. 1b). Occiput slightly swollen, the cheeks shining black and pointed below the eyes. Ocellar tubercle rudimentary, black, with a central depression which is thinly black pilose; ocelli absent. Thorax large and inflated. brownish black in color, the anterior half thickly golden pilose with a few black hairs along the median line. Posterior half of the dorsum (more or less abraded in this specimen) black pilose, as are the postalar callosities. Scutellum colored as the thorax, flattened. of nearly uniform width, with black pile except in the center. Upper pleura inflated, yellow pilose above, black below. Squamae smoky hyaline, the surface and border with short black pile. Coxae blackish brown, the front pair yellowish pilose, the others black pilose. Femora blackish brown with black pile, paler at base and tip. Tibiae blackish, yellowish at tip, which is enlarged and with a slender spur above. Tarsi yellow, the claws yellow at base. Tibiae and tarsi with very fine, short yellow pile. No cmpodía or pulvilli present. Abdomen very broad and inflated, but the venter flat, the general shape being very near that of Lasia, in which the fifth segment is much smaller than the fourth. The first three abdominal segments and basal half of fourth with rather short black pile, posterior to this the pile is golden yellow. Ground color of abdomen brownish black, near a dark mahogany color. Venter clothed with reclinate golden yellow pile. Genitalia blackish marked with yellow, with yellowish pile. Wings brownish hyaline, a little darker near the base. Veins blackish. Venatioii nearly identical with that of Lasia (see Pl. XI, fig. 2). As in some species of Lasia the upper branch of the third vein (R 4) ends in the first (Ri+2 +3) beyond its junction with the second. The lower branch of the fourth vein is missing. This remarkable species would go in the subfamily Panopinae. Some of the genera in this group have a rudimentary proboscis, such as Ornaea and Asmmella. It has several characters in common with Lcsia, the general shape of the body being strikingly near that genus and the venation is almost identical. The Leptidae, Neniestrinidae and Cyrtidae are separmed from other families by having the einpodia developed pulvilliform and it is remarkable that this species should have no sign of piilvilli or empodia. The claws closc together along the inner edges as in some of the Asilidae, such as Lrfvlogasfrr, some species of which have not even the usual bristle-like eiiipodia. This would seem to be a very important and deep-seated character but on account of its close resemblance to the genus Lasla it would not seem advisable to erect a new subfamily to receive it. Owing to the great variation in this group of insects, characters which might be considered generic in other families are of only specific value here. Ordinarily the absence of pulvilli and empodia would place it in a new family, but it is clearly a Cyrtid. and there are no corresponding changes elsewhere in the organism. Most species of Anthrax lack pulvilli, but some have them. so this is a variable character in the nearly related BOI 1ll)_\'lll(lílC. The antennae are very remarkable, but as we know only the male they may be a secondary sexual character. ln the genus Eıılnııflıııs the third anteiinal joint is greatly enlarged and in ()(`H 0 ('fl (in the subfamily Panopinae) there are several species with a large third antenna] Joint. In Omara sclrzuarsi Cole from Cuba the third antennal jolflt ıs large and laterally compressed. In the Cvrtidae the two sexes are almost identical in appearance and if the remarkable antennae of Camposella are a male ornamental character it will be the first instance of this kind in the Cyrtidae. The unusual development of the antennae gives a ‘great sensitive surface and it may be that this is utilized by the male in locating the female. The overdevelopment of one organ may be at the expense of another. and in this case the ocellar tubercle is rudimentary and the ocelli absent, but this is another variable character in the Cyrtidae. In this species we have a connecting link between Lasia and Omaea. Parasitism has undoub‘edly modified other genera in the Cyrtidae and we see here a changing species. The ancestral type was near Lnsia and Enlonchiis. both with a long proboscis here the proboscis is aborted and the lower branch of the fourth vein has disappeared. It is undoubtedly a degenerate offshoot from the primitive type, the genus Panops in Australia being another such branch.Published as part of Cole, F.

The FM and PL Libraries Documentation
No full textBuilding complex SPMD code in an ecient and portable way is nowadays a challenge, especially when there is no uniformity of tools and libraries across platforms. The Fast Messages (FM) and the Portability Library (PL) where both designed to provide the basis of an abstract enough framework for C, so that problems can be coded and ported to any supported platform with no more than a few changes in the makeles and a recompilation. The FM library provides a message passing communications library built around the Berkeley Active Messages library. The PL library provides the primitives for host to node communication for problem initialization and results collection, as well as other miscellaneous and potentially non-portable primitives. This technical report contains the documentation for both libraries.Technical report LCSR-TR-25

Introduction to Urban Science: Evidence and Theory of Cities as Complex Systems
No full textLuís Bettencourt provides a timely, comprehensive, and rigorous treatment of urban space, by contributing to the
advancement of knowledge in the field of urban science. The author develops a valuable scientific guide for researchers,
policymakers, practitioners, and students interested in understanding cities as complex systems. Today, more than half of
world's population lives in urban areas, and, according to theWorld Bank data, by 2045, urban citizens will increase up to
6 billion. Cities of different sizes will play a pivotal role in the postpandemic recovery and, most importantly, they will
make the green transition of our economies and societies really work in coming years. Therefore, understanding “how
each city and every one of its people is the result of the aggregation of many choices, accidents, and influences from
their compounded joint history” (p. xxi) becomes crucial to manage present and future local and global challenges
