    The priority for ideas and philosophy related to "Network Theory" have been traced back and documented by Braun(2004),and credit goes to Karinthy(1929).The IT has empowered to realise it, as the most practical phenomena and it is no more a humour. The OAI (Open Archives Initiatives)and ACIS (Academic Contributor Information System)are progressive in the direction ,which may lead to realise the "Collective Genius" at global level. Focus of present study is on Author-Self-Archiving (A-S-A)Metadata of the 983 Eprints in the Live Archives of the E-LIS (EPrints of Library and Information Science),which were approved till 7th July 2004.The A-S-A Metadata was used for librametric analysis. Self-explanatory bibliographics are illustrated.The highlights include: Conference papers (34%); highest approval, June 2004 (28%); published archives (76%);not refereed (52%); not in public domain (60%); highest self-archiving-author (De Robbio, Antonella).The Nos. of EPrints having single JITA domain specifications were: Theoretical and general aspects of libraries and information(27); Information use and sociology of information(80);Users,literacy and reading(13);Libraries as physical collections(30);Publishing and legal issues(57);Management(13);Industry, profession and education(36);Information sources, supports, channels(113) ; Information treatment for information services, Information functions and techniques (101); Technical services libraries, archives and museums(25); Housing technologies(1); Information technology and library technology(92); and Inter-domainery (395) i.e. having specifications of two or more than two JITA classes

Material examined: INDIA: holotype ɗ, Karnataka: Mudigere, 7.iv. 1975, C.A. Viraktamath (UAS). Paratypes: INDIA: Karnataka: 1 ɗ, 5 Ψ, data as holotype but collected on 22.v. 1976 and 2 Ψ, on 26.iii. 1977; 2 Ψ, 2.vi. 1978; 1 ɗ, 1 Ψ, data as holotype but collected on 22.v. 1976 by B.

Kerala: 1 ɗ, 6 Ψ, Thekkadi, 26–27.iii. 1977, C.A. Viraktamath (3 Ψ), S. Viraktamath (2 Ψ) and B. Mallik (1 ɗ, 1 Ψ). Tamil Nadu: 1 Ψ, Kodaikanal, v. 1914, T.V.Campbell; 1 Ψ, Valparai, 14.iv. 1981, A.R.V. Kumar (BMNH, NPC, UAS, USNM). SRI LANKA: 1 ɗ, Rakwana, 6.ii. 1953, J.W.S. Pringle, B.M. 1953 ­ 175, by sweeping; 1 Ψ, Uva P. Madulsima, 23.v. 1908, T.B.F.; 1 ɗ, 4 Ψ, Peradenyia, collected on different dates during 1904–1914; 1 Ψ, same data but collected on i.05 “ festivus Mats ” (Distant’s handwriting, probably used for description and illustration by Distant, 1908 misidentification of the species); 1 Ψ, same data but collected on 1.x. 1913, by A, Rutherford and misidentified as Scaphoideus festivus Mats. (BMNH). Remarks: S. sculptellus externally resembles sculptus. It also very closely agrees with the female description and illustrations provided by Distant (1908 b) and Melichar (1903) of festivus, suggesting that what these authors had in front of them while describing S. festivus (Matsumura) was either sculptus or sculptellus rather than the species of Matsumura (1902), which is not known to us from the Indian subcontinent.Published as part of Viraktamath, C.

    Quantitative and qualitative analysis with graphic representation of the publication productivity of a scientist facilitates easy and clear perception about the work of a scientist. Bhabha’s scientific work spanned over more than three decades (1933-1967) during which he published 104 publications, which could be classified into nine fields: Interaction of Radiation with Matter (4), Quantum Electrodynamics (5), Mathematical Physics (2), Cosmic Ray Physics (18), Elementary Particle Physics (14), Field Theory (15), General Physics (2), Nuclear Physics (4) and General (40). The highest number of publications (6) were published in 1941, 1945 and 1964 respectively. The average number of publications published per year was 3.05. His productivity coefficient was 0.05 which is a clear indicates that his publication productivity was quite consistent throughout his scientific career. He was single author in 79 of his publications and the main author in 24 publications indicates that he always preferred to work himself and lead the team as ‘mentor’. Bhabha had 22 collaborators during the period. Team of research collaborators working with a successful scientist documents the sociological aspect of history of science while generating knowledge by a leader in a domain. Bhabha became a citable author in 1937. Bhabha received 1211 citations to his 30 publications out of 104 publications. Out of 104, 74 publications did not receive any citations. Out of 74 publications, 40 publications dealt subjects mainly of general interest. Bhabha’s 86.66 percent of cited publications received their first citations within four years of their publication indicates that his publications were noticed immediately and had direct impact among the fellow researchers working all over the world. His overall citation rate was 11.64 per cited publication. The highest citations 389 were received to the domain ‘Cosmic ray physics’. The highest number of citations received were 45 in 1938. His self-citations were only 24 (1.98%) and citations by others were 1187 (98.02%). The highest self citations were six in 1946. Bhabha’s mean diachronous self-citation rate was 1.98. The highest citation rate 28.4 was to the domain ‘Quantum electrodynamics. His single authored publications have received the highest number 863 (71.26%) of citations. Bhabha’s five publications have been cited more than 100 times each. His publications have been cited by the authors working in various diverse fields like nuclear physics, mathematical physics, instrumentation, optics, geophysics and geochemistry, condensed matter physics, applied physics, electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering etc., indicating a very diverse influence and impact of Bhabha’s publications. Bhabha’s publications have also been cited by the Nobel laureates like V. L. Ginzberg, Wolfgang Pauli, H. A. Bethe, M. Born, W. Bothe, E. P. Wigner, H. Yukawa, P. M. S. Blackett and C. N. Yang which is an indication of his originality of ideas and high quality of publications
