The combination of the following features is diagnostic: 1) Forewing veins M 2 and M 3 arise independently from the lower angle of the discal cell. 2) In male genitalia, the posterior tegumenal projection is blunt thorn-like with narrow base in ventral view, similar to that in <i>Agalope</i>. 3) Valva is clearly divided into two parts: the cucullus situated dorsally and gradually narrowed towards its distal end and the remaining part comprising of a weakly sclerotized median section and a sclerotized, narrow saccular band which forms a perpendicular angle at the medial point (an autapomorphy). 4) Juxta lobes are extremely long, spiniform, (ca. 2–2.5 × posterior tegumenal projection length) and medially curved (an autapomorphy).</p> <p> Among the genera in the present study, <i>Rotundagalope</i> <b>gen. n.</b> is most reminiscent of <i>Agacysma</i> <b>gen. n.</b> by sharing similar forewing venation but can be immediately distinguished from the latter by the more rounded wings, the more yellowish forewing, the wings better covered by scales and the much longer and narrower juxta lobes and the much broader valva divided into two sections.</p> <p> <b>Description.</b> Forewing length 26.5–27.4 mm in males and 24.5– 25 mm in females. Antennae bipectinate in both sexes. Head and thorax covered by white piliform scales sparsely, abdomen densely covered with piliform scales. Both wings relatively thickly scaled. Forewing upperside ground color pale yellow, with base marked with orange and veins darkened. Hindwing upperside creamy white with yellowish tint. Cilia white on both wings.</p> <p> <b>Male genitalia.</b> Eighth tergite long trapezoid with posterior end flat or narrowly concave at middle. Uncus triangular in ventral view, gradually narrowed towards distal end with tip rounded. Tegumen trapezoid ventrally. Posterior tegumenal projection short (ca. 2 × uncus length), blunt at the distal end and thorn-like, smooth on surface. Vinculum slender. Saccus V-shaped. Juxta lobes extremely elongated, directed outwards and incurving medially and totally fused with basal section of dorsal ridge of sacculus, connected basally by a small triangular plate. Valva broad (ca. 3 × uncus length), cucullus gradually becoming sclerotized towards distal end, medial section of valva membranous, sacculus forming a nearly perpendicular angle at median point. Phallus slender (ca. 5 × uncus length), slightly S-like curved, dorsally with a triangular dorsal process at the widest part.</p> <p> <b>Female genitalia.</b> Papillae anales moderately long (ca. 0.6 × apophysis posterioris length).Apophysis posterioris much longer than apophysis anterioris, both strongly sclerotized. Apophysis anterioris bearing a broad posterior section and fused medially, forming a sclerotized plate extending anteriorly. Ostium bursae rounded. Ductus bursae membranous. Corpus bursae pyriform, membranous. Signum bursae paired, moderately sclerotized, covered by dense spinules at surface.</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> The generic name <i>Rotundagalope</i> is the aggregate of the Latin word “Rotunda” which means round and the generic name <i>Agalope</i>, referring to its rounded wing shape.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe 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
