Noctiliostrebla caissara Alcantara & Graciolli & Nihei 2019, sp. n.
No full textNoctiliostrebla caissara sp. n. (Figs 14, 17C) Noctiliostrebla aitkeni: Graciolli & Carvalho (2001: 912, 929–930; fig. 13, diagnosis, catalog; part, misidentification); Moura et al. (2003: 811–815; part, host-parasite relationship, misidentification); Prevedello et al. (2005: 197, 202, 209; tab. 1; part, survey records, richness matrix, misidentification). Diagnosis. This is the largest species of Noctiliostrebla and is very similar to N. aitkeni. The female can be easily distinguished by the presence of a single bare area on the median dorsal connexivum between spiracles V and VI. In addition, sternite VII is three times longer than the epiproct. The male is similar to the males of other species, but it can be recognized by apex of sternite VI at least twice as wide as cercus, and distal half of gonopod longer than in N. aitkeni. Description. Measurements (mm, n = 20, 10 ♂♂, 10 ♀♀). HFL: ♂ 0.51 (0.49–0.53); ♀ 0.60 (0.55–0.62); SL: ♂ 0.57 (0.54–0.60); ♀ 0.63 (0.56–0.65); TL: ♂ 0.51 (0.50–0.52); ♀ 0.55 (0.53–0.57); WL: ♂ 0.33 (0.30–0.38); ♀ 0.35 (0.32–0.39); WW: ♂ 0.19 (0.18–0.20); ♀ 0.19 (0.18–0.21) Thorax. Mesepimeron with 1–2 setae on each side. Wing with 0–3 setae on median vein. Metasternum (Fig. 14B) like in N. maai. Female abdomen. Syntergite I+II (Fig. 14A) like in N. maai, except 26–40 setae on each plate of lateral lobe. Dorsal connexivum (Fig. 14A) like N. lamasi sp. n., except as follows: cluster of setae around spiracle III with longest setae half the length of longest setae on syntergite I+II; longitudinal sideband with longest setae half the length of longest setae on cluster of setae around spiracle III and 2–3 times longer than setae on median dorsal connexivum; rectangular bare area between spiracle V and VI on median dorsal connexivum; median pair of setae between each spiracle VI as long as setae on longitudinal sideband. Tergite VII (Fig. 14A, C) like N. lamasi sp. n.; at most three times as long and at least twice as wide as epiproct; inner lateral margin as long as lateral margin of epiproct; 6–10 setae on each plate. Sternite II (Fig. 14B) like in N. aitkeni. Sternite VII with 9–13 setae on each plate. Epiproct (Fig. 14A, C) like in N. maai. Male abdomen. Syntergite I+II like in N. maai, except 30–45 setae on each plate of lateral lobe. Ventral connexivum like in N. dubia. Sternite II (Fig. 14E) like in N. lamasi sp. n. Hypopygium (Fig. 14 D–E) resembling that of N. aitkeni, except as follows: setae on ventral margin shorter than setae around dorsal macrosetae of hypopygium but longer than half their length; sternite VI longer than cercus but not twice the length, apical margin twice as wide as cercus, strongly enlarged and moderately inclined at apex. Genitalia (Fig. 14 F–H) like in N. aitkeni, except as follows: distal half of gonopod longer and narrower than in N. aitkeni, with distance between distal setae and apex more than 2.5 times distance between distal setae and dorsal margin. Distribution. Brazil (Paraná, São Paulo, Rio Grande do Sul) (Fig. 17C). Type locality. Brazil, Paraná, Matinhos, Caiobá. Host. Noctilio leporinus. Type material.

A noun in apposition, the specific epithet is taken from the type locality. The name comes from the old Tupi language “ ka'aysara ” and is the denomination given to traditional inhabitants of the south-eastern and southern coasts of Brazil, where the species occurs. Remarks. The material misidentified as N. aitkeni by Graciolli & Carvalho (2001), Moura et al. (2003) and Prevedello et al. (2005) was examined and most of the specimens were identified as N. caissara sp. n. and were included in the type series; no specimen was confirmed as N. aitkeni. Since N. caissara and N. aitkeni are very similar, the diagnosis of Graciolli & Carvalho (2001) understandably includes many features shared by both species. However, among those features the authors mention the presence of areas without setae on the female dorsal connexivum, which is a diagnostic character of females of N. caissara sp. n.Published as part of Alcantara, Daniel Maximo Correa, Graciolli, Gustavo & Nihei, Silvio S., 2019, Revision of Noctiliostrebla (Diptera: Streblidae), parasites of bulldog bats (Chiroptera: Noctilionidae: Noctilio), pp. 483-521 in Zootaxa 4560 (3) on pages 513-514, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4560.3.4, http://zenodo.org/record/262783

Some of these specimens were identified by us as <i>N. morena</i> <b>sp. n.</b>, whereas others were identified as <i>N. pantaneira</i> <b>sp. n.</b> The individuals of <i>N. morena</i> <b>sp. n.</b> were included in the type series. No specimen from their material was confirmed as <i>N. maai</i>. Like <i>N. dubia</i>, <i>N. maai</i> has also been recorded from Bolivia (Dick <i>et al.</i> 2007), but the specimens collected in that country may in fact belong to <i>N. morena</i> <b>sp. n.</b>, since <i>N. maai</i> only occurs in Central America and northern South America.</p>Published as part of <i>Alcantara, Daniel Maximo Correa, Graciolli, Gustavo & Nihei, Silvio S., 2019, Revision of Noctiliostrebla (Diptera: Streblidae), parasites of bulldog bats (Chiroptera: Noctilionidae: Noctilio), pp. 483-521 in Zootaxa 4560 (3)</i> on pages 509-511, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4560.3.4, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/2627830">http://zenodo.org/record/2627830</a>

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
