Ischnocolus ignoratus Guadanucci & Wendt 2013, sp. nov.
No full textIschnocolus ignoratus sp. nov. (Figure 5) Type material Holotype male (NMW 21447) from Syria, 1896, Godl leg. Paratypes: 1f and 2m (NMW 21448) from Jerusalem, Israel. Etymology From the Latin word “ignored”. The specimen here designated as holotype was found in the same jar of the female holotype of I. syriacus, but placed in a separate vial and with a different label. Ischnocolus syriacus has already been transferred by Guadanucci and Gallon (2008) to the genus Chaetopelma, under the synonym of C. olivaceum (C. L. Koch). Ausserer (1871) did not mention this extra specimen, which we suspect was put in the jar subsequent to the description. Moreover, the collection date of this specimen, according to the label, is 1896, 25 years after the description of I. syriacus. The examination of this specimen revealed it to be a new species of Ischnocolus. Fortunately, an extra vial with two males and one female from the same locality was found in the Naturhistorisches Museum Wien arachnid collection, making it possible to establish the correspondence between both sexes. Diagnosis Male representatives can be distinguished from congeners by the morphology of the palpal bulb, which is slightly bent at the apical end (Figure 5). Female representatives can be distinguished by the morphology of the spermatheca, which is composed of two twisted receptacula (Figure 5C). Description Male (NMW 21447). Total length 17.9.

Remarks In the taxonomic revision of Guadanucci and Gallon (2008) of the genus Chaetopelma Ausserer the species Ischnocolus syriacus Ausserer and Ischnocolus jerusalemensis Smith were transferred to Chaetopelma under the synonymy of Chaetopelma olivaceum C. L. Koch. Siliwal (2009) revised the Indian species of Ischnocolus and proposed the following changes: Ischnocolus khasiensis Tikader, 1977 transferred to the genus Chilobrachys as Chilobrachys khasiensis (Tikader, 1977); Ischnocolus decoratus Tikader, 1977 transferred to the genus Chilobrachys, under the synonymy of Chilobrachys fimbriatus Pocock, 1899.Published as part of Guadanucci, José Paulo Leite & Wendt, Ingo, 2013, Revision of the spider genus Ischnocolus Ausserer, 1871 (Mygalomorphae: Theraphosidae: Ischnocolinae), pp. 387-402 in Journal of Natural History (J.

Ischnocolus fasciculatus Strand 1906
No full textIschnocolus fasciculatus Strand, 1906 The type specimen, from Ethiopia, has been listed in Renner’s (1988) list of type species of the Stuttgart Museum, which was destroyed on 12 September 1944, during World War II. Therefore, this type specimen should be considered lost. The original description does not warrant recognition of the species and, therefore, the identity of I. fasciculatus cannot be confirmed. The species is here considered species inquirenda, pending the availability and careful examination of material from the type locality.Published as part of Guadanucci, José Paulo Leite & Wendt, Ingo, 2013, Revision of the spider genus Ischnocolus Ausserer, 1871 (Mygalomorphae: Theraphosidae: Ischnocolinae), pp. 387-402 in Journal of Natural History (J.

Ischnocolus tunetanus Pavesi 1880
No full textIschnocolus tunetanus Pavesi, 1880 Despite exhaustive research, the type-specimen, from Tunisia, was not located. It is possible that it is a junior synonym of I. valentinus, considering the overlapping of their geographical distributional range, and that I. valentinus is a wide spread species in northern Africa and Mediterranean region in Europe. The original description does not warrant recognition of the species and, therefore, the identity of I. tunetanus cannot be confirmed. The species is here considered species inquirenda, pending the finding of the type material or availability and careful examination of material from the type locality.Published as part of Guadanucci, José Paulo Leite & Wendt, Ingo, 2013, Revision of the spider genus Ischnocolus Ausserer, 1871 (Mygalomorphae: Theraphosidae: Ischnocolinae), pp. 387-402 in Journal of Natural History (J.

Conductors of the Cape Town Municipal Orchestra, 1914-1965 a historical perspective
No full textIncludes abstract.Includes bibliographical references and index.This thesis profiles the conductors of the Cape Municipal Orchestra since its inception in 1914 until the resignation of David Tidboald in 1965. After the introductory Chapter 1, Chapter 2 includes a historic review of the period before 1914. It also highlights the influences leading towards the inauguration of the Cape Municipal Orchestra. Chapters 3-7 discuss the permanent conductors who conducted between 1914 and 1954. The following list extends from the dates of their first concerts up to their resignations, or up to the date of their final concerts: Theo Wendt (from 28 February 1914 to 30 September 1924: a period of about 10 years). Leslie Heward (from 17 July 1924 to 31 May 1926: a period of about 2 years). William Pickerill (from 5 May 1927 to 12 October 1946: a period of about 19 years). Geoffrey Miller as Associate Conductor (from 31 October 1946 to 19 February1948: a period of nearly two years). Enrique Jordá (from 19 February 1948 to 31 December 1953: a period of nearly five years). Assistant and guest conductors are discussed within these chapters. Chapter 8 discusses guest conductors from January 1954 until June 1960. Here they are organised chronologically accordingto their first appearances. Chapter 9 deals with the period of David Tidboald's conductorship (from 20 August 1960 to1 July 1965). The concluding remarks of Chapter 10 briefly touch on such aspects as the number of premieres, recurrence of works mentioned in this thesis, and the guest conducting system
