Setodes truncatus Houghton 2021, new species
Setodes truncatus Houghton, new species Figs 3A–3D The male of S. truncatus n. sp. appears most similar to that of S. incertus within the S. incertus species group (Schmid 1987). It is easily separable from that species by having short and truncate inferior appendages in lateral view, long and parallel processes of segment X in dorsal view, and in its pronounced, bare, acute, mesal projection being distinct at mid-length on each inferior appendage. Male. General appearance typical of genus. Length of each forewing 6.0– 6.3 mm (n = 4) and with venation typical of genus. In ethanol, body uniformly straw-colored with brown sutures between most thoracic sclerites. Legs pale straw-colored. Wings uniformly straw-colored with sparse dark brown setae. Head with pronounced epicranial stem and dorsal triangle. Abdomen pale with dark brown terminal segments. Male genitalia as in Fig. 3. Segment VIII pale in color. Segment IX darkly sclerotized, broad and longitudinally long ventrally, longitudinally short and forming narrow V-shaped transverse bridge dorsally and fused with segment X. Pair of slender preanal appendages covered with short appressed setae, together lyrate in dorsal view. Segment X divided at ~1/3 length into pair of slender processes, extending beyond tips of preanal appendages; separated and approximately parallel for most of their length in dorsal view. Inferior appendages approximately as long as preanal appendages; not extending beyond tips of segment X processes, abruptly truncate and quadrate at apices in lateral view, and covered with long setae; each with bare, acute, mesal projection distinct at mid-length in lateral and, especially, in caudal views. Phallic apparatus reduced, consisting of endothecal membranes basally supporting pair of elongate parameres curving slightly ventrad and tubular phallicata approximating shape of duck’s head in lateral view, with small, longitudinal, dorsomesal flange at mid-length. Female and larva. Unknown. Like the male, the larva and female of S. truncatus will probably be similar to those of S. incertus. Holotype male.

Effect of oxygen tension on the amino acid utilisation of human embryonic stem cells
Background/aims: human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a potential source of cells for treatment of many degenerative diseases, but in culture have a propensity to spontaneously differentiate, possibly due to suboptimal conditions. Culture at low oxygen tensions improves hESC maintenance and regulates carbohydrate metabolism. Hence, a greater understanding of the nutrient requirements of hESCs will allow production of more appropriate culture media. This study aims to investigate the effect of environmental oxygen tension on the amino acid metabolism of hESCs. Methods: the production or depletion of amino acids by hESCs cultured at 5% or 20% oxygen in the presence or absence of FGF2 was measured by reversephase HPLC. Results: atmospheric oxygen, or removal of FGF2 from hESCs cultured at 5% oxygen, perturbed the uptake or release of individual amino acids and the total amino acid turnover compared to hESCs cultured at 5% oxygen. In particular, serine uptake was reduced at 20% oxygen and by removal of FGF2. Conclusions: highly pluripotent hESCs, cultured at 5% oxygen, demonstrate a greater amino acid turnover than hESCs cultured at 20% oxygen, or without FGF2. These data suggest that amino acid turnover could be used as a measure of the self-renewal capacity of hESC
