    No full text
    Nectarinia philippensis “Brisson” Meyen, 1834a: 82. Now: Cinnyris jugularis jugularis (Linnaeus, 1766). Gadow (1884: 63, 85), Stresemann (1952: 513). Lectotype (herein designated; see below for explanation): Specimen figured by Brisson (1760a, pl. 30, fig. 2). This specimen was collected by Pierre Poivre in 1751–1754 at Manila, Luzon, Philippines, and was deposited in the collection of Abbé Aubry in France when Brisson examined it (Stresemann 1952: 513). Its later fate is unknown. Note that this specimen is also the holotype of Certhia philippina Linnaeus, 1766: 187. Paralectotypes (lost): Specimens figured by Brisson (1760a, pl. 31, fig. 2–3; also Daubenton 1768, pl. 246, fig. 1–2). These specimens, which were collected by Pierre Poivre (1719–1786), were at first deposited in the collection of René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur (1683–1757), then in the collection of King Louis XV of France (1710–1774), but now are lost (Stresemann 1952). Note that these specimens are also syntypes of Certhia sperata Linnaeus, 1766: 186. Paralectotypes (lost): Specimens figured by Sonnerat (1776, pl. 30, fig. A, B, D). They were probably collected by Pierre Sonnerat (1748–1814) on the island of Luzon, Philippines, but they were not preserved. Paralectotype (lost): ZMB 8075, ♂, (Lichtenstein 1832, Nr. 4–6 sub “ Nectarinia exspectata ”), collected by Meyen in “ October ” [= 1–9 October 1831; see below] in “ Manila ” [= Laguna de Bay, Luzon, Philippines; see below]. Paralectotype (lost): ZMB 8076 (Lichtenstein 1832, Nr. 7 sub “ Nectarinia exspectata ”), juv., collected by Meyen in “ October ” [= 1–9 October 1831; see below] in “ Manila ” [= Laguna de Bay, Luzon, Philippines; see below]. Paralectotype (lost): ZMB 8081 (Lichtenstein 1832, Nr. 8–12 sub “ Nectarinia gularis ”), collected by Meyen in “ October ” [= 1–9 October 1831; see below] in “ Manila ” [= Laguna de Bay, Luzon, Philippines; see below]. Paralectotype (lost): ZMB 8082 (Lichtenstein 1832, Nr. 8–12 sub “ Nectarinia gularis ”), collected by Meyen in “ October ” [= 1–9 October 1831; see below] in “ Manila ” [= Laguna de Bay, Luzon, Philippines; see below]. Paralectotype (lost): ZMB 8083 (Lichtenstein 1832, Nr. 8–12 sub “ Nectarinia gularis ”), collected by Meyen in “ October ” [= 1–9 October 1831; see below] in “ Manila ” [= Laguna de Bay, Luzon, Philippines; see below]. Paralectotypes (lost): ZMB uncatalogued (Lichtenstein 1832, Nr. 4–6 sub “ Nectarinia exspectata ”); two specimens, both collected by Meyen in “ October ” [= 1–9 October 1831; see below] in “ Manila ” [= Laguna de Bay, Luzon, Philippines; see below]. These specimens were presumably destined by M.H.C. Lichtenstein for exchange, but their fate remains unknown.

Due to lectotypification, the type locality is ascertained as Manila, island of Luzon, Philippines. Remarks. Meyen (1834a: 82) introduced Brisson’s (1760a: 655) name for this bird, believing that Linnaeus’s (1766: 186, 188) Certhia sperata and Certhia zeylonica were its females and males, respectively, and that Brisson’s (1760a) philippensis had precedence. Brisson’s species-group names are not available for nomenclatural purposes (see Melville & Smith 1987), so Meyen (1834a) is the author of Nectarinia philippensis. Meyen (1834a) did not specify the type series of this species, but Lichtenstein (1832) listed nine relevant specimens, which thus belong to the type series. Moreover, Meyen (1834a: 82–83) explicitly included in his Nectarinia philippensis specimens figured by Brisson (1760a, pl. 30, fig. 2, and pl. 31, fig. 2–3), Sonnerat (1776, pl. 30, fig. A, B, D), and Daubenton (1768, pl. 246, fig. 1–2; 1773, pl. 576, fig. 1–4), which also belong in the type series (see above for their list). Meyen (1834a) did not specify where and when exactly he collected his specimens. M.H.C. Lichtenstein (1832) said that all Meyen specimens were collected in “October” at “ Manila ”. However, Meyen (1834a) used “ Manila ” in the sense of both the city and Luzon Island. His itinerary shows (see above) that all specimens originated from southern Luzon, having been collected at the city of Manila and/or at Laguna de Bay. If M.H.C. Lichtenstein (1832) is correct in saying that the specimens were collected in October, then they must have been collected at Laguna de Bay, more particularly on the Jalajala Peninsula and/or on Talim Island, during 1– 9 October. In absence to any evidence to the contrary we accept this locality and date of collection. As correctly observed by Gadow (1884: 63, 85), Meyen’s (1834a) description of “males” of philippensis agrees with that of male Nectarinia sperata, while his description of “females” of philippensis agrees with that of male Nectarinia jugularis. Meyen’s (1834a) Nectarinia philippensis is thus based on a mixed type series and its nomenclatural fate needs to be determined via lectotypification. We found no surviving syntype, so we designate here the specimen figured by Brisson (1760a, pl. 30, fig. 2) as the lectotype of this species. Herewith, Nectarinia philippensis Meyen, 1834, becomes a junior objective synonym of Certhia philippina Linnaeus, 1766, of which this specimen is the holotype (see above). All other former syntypes of N. philippensis Meyen become herewith paralectotypes of this form.Published as part of Mlíkovský, Jiří & Frahnert, Sylke, 2017, Type specimens and type localities of birds (Aves) collected during F.

    How Socratic Is the “Noble Art of Sophistry”? Tracing the Gennaia Sophistike of the Sixth Diaeresis Back to Old Comedy

    No full text
    Several scholars agree in identifying the “sophistry” outlined in the 6th diaeresis of Plato’s Sophist with the Socratic elenchus (see esp. Cornford 1935, 177-179). In fact, refuting someone “when (s)he thinks (s)he is saying something though (s)he is saying nothing” until (s)he feels ashamed for the opinions (s)he previously held (230c-d), is a kind of purification that strongly resembles Socrates’ elenctic activity. According to Plato and other first-generation Socratics, the shame triggered by Socrates plays a pivotal role in transforming the unfounded pretense of knowledge of Socrates’ interlocutors into an admission of ignorance. As Rosen has pointed out, the 6th diaeresis ends with a definition not of the sophist, but of “a hybrid of the sophist and the philosopher” (1983,(1983,131). This is surprising, as one explicit aim Plato pursues very often (in the Sophist as well as in many other dialogues) is to distinguish between, in most cases even to counterpose, the sophist and the philosopher. This raises the question of what kind of sophistry Plato has in mind at 226B-231B. In this paper I claim that in the 6th diaeresis Plato points at a definition of the sophist that merges both the professional sophists and Socrates—a definition that can be traced back to Old Comedy. Here, the word sophistes encompasses “intellectuals” of various kinds (sophists, philosophers, phusiologoi, and even the initiates to mystery cults such as Orphism or the Eleusinian Mysteries) that were lampooned not only in Aristophanes’s Clouds, but also in other comedies by playwrights who were active in the decade before 423 BC (such as Eupolis, Ameipsias, and Plato Comicus). In this paper, I show how Plato’s account of sophistry at 226B-231B depends on a variety of comic motifs

    Measurement of D production in diffractive deep inelastic scattering at HERA D ∗ production in diffractive deep inelastic scattering at HERA

    Measurements of D∗ (2010) meson production in diffractive deep inelastic scattering (5 < Q2 < 100 GeV2) are presented which are based on HERA data recorded at a centre-of-mass energy √ s = 319 GeV with an integrated luminosity of 287 pb−1. The reaction ep → eXY is studied, where the system X, containing at least one D∗ (2010) meson, is separated from a leading low-mass proton dissociative system Y by a large rapidity gap. The kinematics of D∗ candidates are reconstructed in the D∗ → Kππ decay channel. The measured cross sections compare favourably with next-to-leading order QCD predictions, where charm quarks are produced via boson-gluon fusion. The charm quarks are then independently fragmented to the D∗ mesons. The calculations rely on the collinear factorisation theorem and are based on diffractive parton densities previously obtained by H1 from fits to inclusive diffractive cross sections. The data are further used to determine the diffractive to inclusive D∗ production ratio in deep inelastic scatterin
