Edessa (Edessa) nigroangulata Fernandes & Silva 2015
Edessa (E.) nigroangulata Fernandes & Silva, 2015 (Figs. 17, 28 E,F, 30 A,B) Edessa nigroangulata Fernandes et al., 2015: 518 (description). Holotype: see Fernandes et al. (2015). During the study of the E. sexdens group of species, we noticed that part of the E. (E.) nigroangulata paratypes were part of another very similar species. The paratypes of E. (E.) nigroangulata are indicated below. The remaining specimens will be described as a new species in a forthcoming article. Paratypes (n= 5). MÉXICO, Chiapas: 1♀, El Aguacero, nr.

Parker (E. suturara Dallas, 1851 — Comp. w. type Fernandes, JAM 1999) (TH). Complementary description. Humeral angle black spot restricted to the angle in dorsal and ventral views (Fig. 28 E,F). Connexival segments with concavities almost entirely covered by trapezoidal black spots separated by a large yellow median spot (Fig. 28 E); spots extending ventrally, subrectangular (Fig. 28 F). Ventral surface. Dark stripe of the propleuron covering 2/3 of the width of the sclerite (Fig. 28 F). Abdomen with spine of third segment acuminated (Fig. 17 G). Male genitalia, superior process of genital cup continuing ventrally in a crenulated low carina without distal dentiform projection (Fig. 17 B,E). Comments. The original description and comments were presented in Fernandes et al. (2015). Here we present photographs of the holotype in dorsal and ventral views. Also, a plate with photographs of the male and female external genitalia because the original description presented only hand-drawn drawings. This species is similar to E. (E.) electa and E. (E.) nigricornis. See comments of E. (E.) electa and E. (E.) nigricornis.

It grows in forest formations of Amazonian forest, Atlantic rain forest, and Cerrado domains, where it can grow in shaded and sunny areas at 1– 720 m. Notes:— The most notable character of M. maxonianum is the dense cover of sessile to stalked glands on the abaxial surface of the laminae, and having the sporangial stalks glabrous or with inconspicuous filamentous, septate structures. In these characters it differs from the similar M. longifolium, which shares the same shape of lamina and pinnae, but is characterized by having glands and trichomes (sometimes only trichomes) on the abaxial surface of the lamina and sporangial stalks with long, acicular trichomes. Another species that also has glandular trichomes on the abaxial surface of the lamina is M. falcatum Liebmann (1849: 183). However, it differs from M. maxonianum by having longer pinna stalks and acicular and erect trichomes on the costae.Published as part of Fernandes, Rozijane Santos, Yesilyurt, Jovita Cislinski & Salino, Alexandre, 2014, New species and combinations in Meniscium (Thelypteridaceae), pp. 1-11 in Phytotaxa 184 (1) on page 9, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.184.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/515317

F. R. Leavis: The Creative University
This is a critical introduction to the educational thought of F. R. Leavis (1895-1978), the greatest English literary critic of the twentieth century, providing the first in-depth examination of Leavis's ideas in relation to contemporary mass higher education. During the course of a long, prolific and controversial academic career, which saw him take issue with figures such as Wittgenstein, T. S. Eliot and C. P. Snow, Leavis became one of the most articulate advocates for the idea of the university as 'a centre of consciousness and human responsibility' in the face of what he saw as the relentless technological drive of civilisation. With the journal Scrutiny which he co-founded, as well as his critical writings, Leavis became a decisive influence on generations of teachers in Britain and overseas. Widely misrepresented as narrowly elitist, his ideas about 'the creative university', with their radical, student-centred approach to teaching, constitute a powerful resource for a higher education system grappling with the contradictory demands of continuity and change. Based on original research, the study provides an overview of Leavis's life, work and heritage and his educational world view, and a comprehensive exploration of Leavis's pedagogy from theoretical and practical perspectives. It also includes a first-hand account by the author of being taught by Leavis in person
