Eye dark brown. Pronotum with two longitudinal orange stripes, and irregular orange patterns on lateral margins. Scutellum with two irregular orange stripes; scutellar suture prominent. Forewing without brown or castaneous band and orange stripe like other species of this group, but two small dark brown spots on 2nd and 4th apical cells. Hindwing hyaline. Leg and body venter whitish yellow. Second sternal apodeme in male with posterior lobes small, round apically, extended up to middle of 3rd sternite. Male genitalia. Pygofer lobe elongate, broad basally, roundly convex at posterior margin with pointed and slanting downwards posterior angle, numerous setae on near to ventrocaudal surface. Subgenital plate with 4 long macrosetae and row of short rigid setae at upper margin subbasally. Style long with narrow base, with prominent preapical lobe, widened and pointed apex. Connective Y-shaped, short base, with long narrow branches diverging on wide arc. Aedeagal shaft straight, long and tubular, strongly bent laterad with two apices in lateral view; dorsal apodeme short, moderately expanded, with pair of process arising from basolateral part of shaft, subapically bent recurringly; gonopore apical. Length. Males 2.6−2.9 mm, females 2.6−2.9 mm. Type material. Holotype male, Korea, Chungbuk Province: Mt. Cheondeungsan, on Quercus sp., 1.X.2016, Y.J. Kwon; Paratypes, 2 males and 3 females, same data as holotype. Distribution. Korea (Central). Host plant. Quercus sp. Etymology. The specific name is derived from name of the mountain of type locality. Remarks. This species differs from other species in lacking a castaneous brown or orange stripe on the forewing. Its male genitalia are similar to Naratettix ibukisianus but differ from the latter by the characteristic tip of the aedeagal shaft and position of the basolateral process.Published as part of Hossain, Md.

Abdurrahman, M.Kes., (2) Karimuddin, S.Pd., M.Pd.Kata kunci: kecepatan reaksi, keseimbangan, keterampilan Tae Kwon DoTae Kwon Do merupakan seni beladiri yang berasal dari Korea, seni beladiri Tae Kwon Do lebih mengutamakan kaki daripada tangan pada saat melakukan penyerangan, pada dasarnya beladiri Tae Kwon Do hampir sama dengan beladiri lainnya semua anggota badan dapat digunakan, akan tetapi beladiri Tae Kwon Do lebih dominan dalam penggunaan kaki. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui Hubungan Kecepatan reaksi dan keseimbangan dengan keterampilan Tae Kwon Do pada atlet Tae Kwon Do PPLD Provinsi Aceh Tahun 2017. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian deskriptif dengan teknik analisis korelasional. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah atlet Tae Kwon Do PPLD Provinsi Aceh yang berjumlah 13 orang. Teknik pengambilan sampel yang dilakukan adalah total sampling. Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara: (1) tes kecepatan reaksi (whole body reaction) (2) tes keseimbangan (bass test) (3) tes keterampilan Tae Kwon Do. Teknik analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan rumus analisis korelasi ganda. Berdasarkan hasil analisis data,temuan penelitian ini dapat di kemukakan sebagai berikut: terdapat hubungan yang positif dan signifikan antara kecepatan reaksi dan keseimbangan dengan keterampilan Tae Kwon Do (F=16,52), kecepatan reaksi memberi kontribusi sebesar 42,25%, dan keseimbangan 77,44% dengan keterampilan Tae Kwon Do.Simpulan penelitian ini adalah terdapat sumbangan yang signifikan dari kecepatan reaksi (X1) dan keseimbangan (X2) dengan keterampilan Tae Kwon Do (Y) pada atlet Tae Kwon Do PPLD Provinsi Aceh Tahun 2017. Selain itu juga didukung oleh teknik yang dikuasai oleh atlet, semakin baik teknik yang dikuasai atlet maka hasil yang diperoleh akan semakin optimal

    SECOND-ORDER FINITE DIFFERENCE METHOD FOR OPTION PRICING UNDER JUMP-DIFFUSION MODELS

    No full text
    We develop a finite difference method to solve partial integro-differential equations which describe the behavior of option prices under jump-diffusion models. With localization to a bounded domain of the spatial variable, these equations are discretized on uniform grid points over a finite domain of time and spatial variables. The proposed method is based on three time levels and leads to linear systems with tridiagonal matrices. In this paper the stability of the proposed method and the second-order convergence rate with respect to a discrete l(2)-norm are proved. Numerical results obtained with European put options under the Merton and Kou models show the behaviors of the stability and the second-order convergence rate.open112219sciescopu

    A SECOND-ORDER TRIDIAGONAL METHOD FOR AMERICAN OPTIONS UNDER JUMP-DIFFUSION MODELS

    No full text
    We propose an implicit numerical method for pricing American options where the underlying asset follows a jump-diffusion model. Using the fact that the prices of American options are given by linear complementarity problems (LCPs), we combine an implicit finite difference method with an operator splitting method. The proposed method is constructed on three time levels, and the operator splitting method is used to treat American constraints. We concentrate on the formulation of the numerical method which leads to linear systems with tridiagonal coefficient matrices. Numerical experiments show that the implicit method has the second-order convergence rate, and the prices of American options can be obtained in a fraction of a second on a computer.open111820sciescopu
