No full textRhomantis Giglio-Tos, 1915 Monotypic, related to Acromantis. Arboricolous. Rhomantis moultoni Giglio-Tos, 1915 Rhomantis moultoni Giglio-Tos, 1915: 3 Distribution. Sunda Islands (Giglio-Tos 1915 a, Werner 1933, Beier 1934, Ehrmann 2002, Helmkampf et al. 2007). Bornean records. Sarawak: Kuching (Giglio-Tos 1915 a), Lanjak Entimau (1 m, CSUB); Sabah: Danum Valley (Helmkampf et al. 2007). Remarks. The distributional record cited as “Sunda Islands” traces back to Beier (1934); however, no specimens outside Borneo are known. This genus might be endemic to the island.Published as part of Schwarz, Christian J. & Konopik, Oliver, 2014, An annotated checklist of the praYing mantises (Mantodea) of Borneo, including the results of the 2008 scientific expedition to Lanjak Entimau Wildlife SanctuarY, Sarawak, pp. 130-168 in Zootaxa 3797 (1) on page 142, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3797.1.12, http://zenodo.org/record/22603
Pliacanthopus Giglio-Tos 1927
No full textPliacanthopus Giglio-Tos, 1927 = Xanthomantis Giglio-Tos, 1915 = Polyacanthopus Hebard, 1920 = Oligocanthopus Beier, 1935 Three subgenera are currently recognized, two of them monotypic. The genus was previously known as Xanthomantis Giglio-Tos, 1915, but this name was preoccupied, so Uvarov (1940 b) chose the next available name, of subgenus Pliacanthopus, as replacement, without further commenting on former nominate subgenus Xanthomantis. The nomenclatory change went unnoticed by subsequent authors (e. g. Beier 1964, 1968, Ehrmann 2002, Otte & Spearman 2005), until Koçak & Kemal (2008) confirmed the homonymy and proposed Malayamantis as replacement name for subgenus Xanthomantis.

The Singapore specimen mentioned by Hebard (1920) is the only record known outside of Borneo. It may possibly refer to P. (M.) malayanus Beier, 1931, which would make P. (M.) flavus a Bornean endemic. Fam. Mantidae Latreille, 1802 1 Subfam.

Method of measuring properties of paticles and corresponding apparatus
No full textA method of measuring properties of particles comprises the steps of generating a beam of radiation (IW); illuminating with the beam (IW) an observation region (MR) which is transited by a particle (B), a portion of the beam (IW) giving rise to radiation (SW) which is scattered by scattering interaction with the particle (B), and another portion (TW) being transmitted substantially undisturbed through the observation region (MR); and detecting, in a detection plane (M), a plurality of radiation intensity values which are determined by the interference between the scattered radiation (SW) and the transmitted radiation (TW). The detection of the radiation intensity values in the detection plane (M) is carried out according to a time sequence of acquisitions corresponding to successive transit positions of the particle through the observation region (MR). On the basis of the time sequence of acquisitions, the trend of a parameter of asymmetry of the distribution of the plurality of radiation intensity values with respect to the optical axis (z), due to the successive transit positions of the particle (B), is determined as a function of time. Depending on the trend of the parameter of asymmetry determined as a function of time, the trends of phase delay and amplitude of the scattered radiation (SW) with respect to the transmitted radiation (TW) are determined as a function of time, and the properties of the particle (B) are determined on the basis of the trends of the phase delay and amplitude of the scattered radiation (SW) as a function of time

Majangella Giglio-Tos 1915
No full textMajangella Giglio-Tos, 1915 = Ephippiomantis Werner, 1922 Three species on the Malay Peninsula and the Greater Sunda Islands. See taxonomic comments under M. moultoni. Majangella moultoni Giglio-Tos, 1915 Majangella moultoni Giglio-Tos, 1915: 94 -95 Distribution. Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Borneo (Werner 1933, Ehrmann 2002, Svenson & Whiting 2009, Bragg 2010). Bornean records. Sarawak: Sadong (Giglio-Tos 1915 b), Lanjak Entimau (3 m, CSUB / SFDC); Sabah: Crocker Range (Bragg 2010), Mt. Kinabalu (Bragg 2010), Danum Valley (Bragg 2010); Kalimantan: Long Petak (Werner 1933). Remarks. Because of its superficial resemblance to bark-dwelling mantids (i. e. mottled color pattern and a groove between the first and second postero-ventral spine) this genus was included by virtually all authors within the Liturgusidae (Giglio-Tos 1915, Beier 1935 c, 1964, 1968, Ehrmann 2002, Otte & Spearman 2005, Bragg 2010). However, Liturgusidae, in its classic sense, turned out to be a polyphyletic assemblage of unrelated taxa sharing only the bark-living lifestyle (see Svenson & Whiting 2009). On the other hand, Werner (1922) assigned his new genus Ephippiomantis (with E. ophirensis as type species) to Acromantinae due to the shape of the frontal sclerite, the process on the vertex and the subapical lobes on mid and hind legs. The synonymy has recently been established by Svenson & Vollmer (2014). Molecular phylogeny (Svenson & Whiting 2009, as E. ophirensis) lately confirmed Majangella to belong to Acromantini.Published as part of Schwarz, Christian J. & Konopik, Oliver, 2014, An annotated checklist of the praYing mantises (Mantodea) of Borneo, including the results of the 2008 scientific expedition to Lanjak Entimau Wildlife SanctuarY, Sarawak, pp. 130-168 in Zootaxa 3797 (1) on page 142, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3797.1.12, http://zenodo.org/record/22603

Metriomantis pilosella Giglio-Tos 1915
No full textMetriomantis cf. pilosella Giglio-Tos, 1915 (Figs. 55–56, 89) Type locality. Guyana (Giglio-Tos 1915a). Records. SMNK: ♂, 230 m, Estanque trail tree trap, 30.IX.2014, leg. M. Falkenberg (SMNK-Mant 12561) (genitalia preparation Schwarz No. 392). CSC: ♂, 230 m, lux, 19.IV.2018, leg. M. Falkenberg (Figs. 55–56) (genitalia preparation Schwarz No. 410, Fig. 89) (ex. SMNK). Distribution. Guyana, Peru. Remarks. Our specimens correspond very well to the holotype of M. pilosella (MFNB), particularly as regards the black markings on head, forefemora and foretibiae, and the pilosity of the walking legs (Giglio-Tos 1915a, 1927). However, they are distinguished from the holotype by a conspicuously shorter metazona, which is 2.4 times as long as the prozona (as opposed to 2.9 times in the holotype). Whether this difference represents intraspecific variability or points to more than one taxon being present remains unknown at the moment (J. Rivera, pers. comm.). New for Peru.Published as part of Schwarz, Christian J., Ehrmann, Reinhard, Stiewe, Martin B.
