Tarsal claws (Fig. 22) curved and toothed. Empodia much shorter than claws, about as long as the small basal tooth. Female Abdomen. (Fig. 23): Tergites 1–7 rectangular, setulose, and with 1–2 posterior rows of strong setae; tergite 8 about 0.3 width of the tergite 7. Sternites 2–7 rectangular, setulose, with posterior row of hyaline setae. Ovipositor: segment 8 with lateral group of strong curved setae, the membranous part rugose with papillae surrounded with tiny spines. Lateral plate with ~ 26 strong, straight and thick setae. Aculeus curved and bare. Apical lamella oval, setose; the basal third of the dorsal margin covered with filiform short setae and the apical two thirds covered with short lanceolate setae. Holotype. Female, Egypt, Alexandria, El-Amria district (30 ° 59 '54.00"N, 29 ° 49 '7.00"E), 26.V. 2013, A. K. Elsayed, reared from leaf galls on leaves of Atriplex halimus. Paratypes. 1 female, 26.V. 2013, El-Amria district, Alexandria, reared by A. K. Elsayed from galls on leaves of Atriplex halimus. Distribution. Egypt, Alexandria, El-Amria district. Etymology. The name of that species is derived from Egypt. Biology. Larvae of P. aegyptiaca induce globular galls, 2-3 mm in diameter, on both surfaces of leaves (Fig. 8) of the salt marsh plant A. halimus. Each infested leaf has 2-6 galls, usually beyond the mid-rib. The galls were found in May and June 2013. The galls were collected and preserved in test tubes to rear the adult stage, but that method was not very successful, as only 2 females emerged and the pupation site was not determined. Another method was tested to rear the adults, the galls were collected and put in a plastic jar with soil at the bottom, but no adults emerged. Remarks. The three known species of Primofavilla, P. initialis Mamaev 1972, P. kaplini Fedotova 1991, and P. cystiphorae Fedotova 1991, are associated with Atriplex salina Siev., A. nana Parr-Sm., and A. tatarica L., respectively (Fedotova 1991 b, Gagné & Jaschhof 2014). The identification of Primofavilla species could be determined by the diagnostic morphological characters of the female ovipositor (Mamaev 1972, Fedotova 1991 b). The dorsal margin of the ovoid apical lobe of P. kaplini has only filiform setae, in contrast to P. aegyptiaca, P. cystiphorae and P. initialis, which have the filiform setae only on the basal third of the dorsal margin with the remaining setae either lanceolate (P. aegyptiaca and P. cystiphorae) or squamiform (P. initialis). Primofavilla aegyptiaca is closest to P. cystiphorae, but the former has dorsal and ventral sclerotized plates at the base of segment 9 of the female abdomen, while the latter does not. Primofavilla aegyptiaca also differs from P. cystiphorae in the distribution and number of strong setae on the lateral plate, which do not extend to the ventral side in P. aegyptiaca, unlike in P. cystiphorae. In addition to these differences, P. aegyptiaca has a bare saddle-like projection at the base of the aculeus. Therefore, P. aegyptiaca is considered to be a new species. Very similar galls were shown by De Stefani (1942) on the same host plant in Sicily, Italy, but the gall inducer was not identified, strongly suggesting the presence of P. aegyptiaca in Italy.Published as part of Elsayed, Ayman Khamis, Skuhravá, Marcela, Karam, Hedaya Hamza, Elminshawy, Abdelaziz & Al-Eryan, Mohamed Awad, 2015, New records and new species of gall midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) developing on Chenopodiaceae in Egypt, pp. 105-115 in Zootaxa 3904 (1) on pages 111-112, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3904.1.6, http://zenodo.org/record/23434

Genitalia (Fig. 28): Gonocoxite slightly elongate, with setulose mediobasal lobe. Gonostylus 0.5 times as long as gonocoxite, arched, ending with a strong tooth.

All material from Egypt, El-Amria district, Alexandria, reared by A. K.

Distribution. Egypt (El-Amria district). Etymology. This species is named in honor of Mrs. Marcela Skuhravá, the Czech entomologist and expert on the family Cecidomyiidae (Diptera). Biology. Larvae of S. skuhravae induce small, slight swellings (Fig. 9 and 10) on male floral inflorescences of the salt marsh plant Atriplex halimus. The gall consists of a single chamber, and pupation takes place inside it. The pupal exuviae protrude from the emergence hole, and can be distinguished by their hyaline color. The galls were collected and the adults emerged from the end of May to October 2013. Remarks. The genus Stefaniella contains 9 species (Gagné & Jaschhof 2014). Dorchin & Freidberg (2008) revised all the species and found no significant differences between them in morphological characters. They concluded that study of the immature stages is needed, and molecular study will be useful to determine relationships between the species. They added that the currently the best characters for distinguishing species of Stefaniella are those of their galls. There are two known species of Stefaniella that induce galls on A. halimus: S. atriplicis Kieffer, 1898 and S. trinacriae De Stefani, 1900 (Dorchin & Freidberg 2008, Gagné & Jaschhof 2014). Stefaniella atriplicis induces small stem galls, each gall about 4–5 mm in diameter and multiple chambers (Skuhravá et al. 2007). Stefaniella trinacriae induces large galls on the stems, each gall about the size of a hazelnut and having multiple chambers. In contrast to the preceding species, S. skuhravae induces small galls on the male floral inflorescence, and each gall consists of only a single chamber. Therefore, we consider it to be a new species.Published as part of Elsayed, Ayman Khamis, Skuhravá, Marcela, Karam, Hedaya Hamza, Elminshawy, Abdelaziz & Al-Eryan, Mohamed Awad, 2015, New records and new species of gall midges (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) developing on Chenopodiaceae in Egypt, pp. 105-115 in Zootaxa 3904 (1) on pages 112-114, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3904.1.6, http://zenodo.org/record/23434

Variations on the Author
“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
