Gymnetron lanuginosum Wollaston
Gymnetron lanuginosum Wollaston Gymnetron lanuginosum Wollaston, 1875: 218.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
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
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Gymnetron hispidum Brulle
Gymnetron hispidum Brullé Gymnetron hispidum Brullé, 1832: 247; Desbrochers 1893: 27; Reitter 1908: 38; 1916: 230; Hustache 1931: 416, 427; Hoffmann 1958: 1284, 1304. Smreczyński, 1976: 34. Lohse & Tischler, 1983: 269. This species was described under the number " 457 " in Brullé’s catalogue of species collected in Morea (Greece), but its type specimens were evidently never studied by another author after their description. The salient features of the original Latin diagnosis are " Niger, pube sericeo hirtus; rostro medio sulcato; thorace lateribus solum hispidum." and the dimensions given are 6 mm for the length and 3 mm for the width. Brisout (1862) did not cite G. hispidum in his monograph on Mecinini, whereas Desbrochers (1893) wrote in his revision of the tribe " La description de Brullé, malgré une légère contradiction, qui n'est probablement qu'une erreur d'impression, ne laisse aucun doute, sur la réunion à cette espèce, du G. p i l o s u m Gyll. parue six ans plus tard.". All subsequent authors (Reitter 1908, Hustache 1931, Hoffmann 1958, Smreczyńki 1976, Lohse & Tischler 1983) accepted this synonymy proposed by Desbrochers. In the general collection of the MNHN there is a male syntype of G. hispidum that corresponds very well with Brullé’s original description and is labelled "Museum Paris, Morée, 4187 - 33 [typewritten grey rectangular label] / Brullé, Morée [handwritten white round label] / 457 [handwritten white rectangular label]". It is here designated as the lectotype of Gymnetron hispidum Brullé, 1832 (des. Caldara). It actually belongs to R. tetra (Fabricius, 1792), which possesses long, yellowish, seta-like scales and a rostrum with a median sulcus.Published as part of Caldara, Roberto, Ić, Milana Desan Č, Gassmann, Andre, Legarreta, Lorenza, Emerson, Brent C. & Toševski, Ivo, 2008, On the identity of Rhinusa hispida (Brullé) and its current synonyms (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), pp. 61-68 in Zootaxa 1805 on page 62, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18265
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
We 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
