    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We 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

The differential diagnosis with <i>Aulocera longanfua</i> is given in the diagnosis section of the latter, below.</p> <p> <b>Remarks.</b> Although the type localites of <i>Aulocera pygmaea vadimi</i> and the nominate subspecies are not far away from each other, their habitats are two isolated summits which means gene flow between the two populations is unlikely. Considering the morphological differences between the two taxa, this subspecies is retained as valid.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> China (N.

    <i>Aulocera longanfua</i> Lang, 2021 <p>(Figs. 7, 8, 20, 29 d, 30 d, 31 d)</p> <p> <i>Aulocera pygmaea</i>: Lang (<i>nec</i> Holik), 2019: 149, figs. 28, 29.</p> <p> <i>Aulocera longanfua</i> Lang, 2021: 24, figs. 10–14. TL: Huangtu-liang Pass, Pingwu, Sichuan; H. Huang, 2021: 354; Lang, 2022: 120, pl. XI: 10–12.</p> <p> <b>Material examined.</b> Holotype: ♂, Holotype of <i>Aulocera longanfua</i> Lang, China: Sichuan, Pingwu, Huangtu-liang Pass, 3300 m, 30.VII.2018, leg. S. Y. Lang (CQMNH); paratypes: 3 ♂♂ 1 ♀, Paratypes of <i>Aulocera longanfua</i> Lang, same collecting data, leg. S. Y. Lang & J. Hou (LSY).</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> <i>Aulocera longanfua</i> can be separated from the related <i>A. sybillina</i> by the combination of the following characters: 1) in the male, on the forewing underside, the white postdiscal spots are much smaller; 2) on the forewing upperside, the male brand is narrower and situated further separated from the white postdiscal spots in the spaces 1b, 2 and 3, whereas it is broader and nearly attached to the white spots in <i>A. sybillina</i>; 3) in the female, on the hindwing upperside, the white discal band is much narrower; 4) the lamina of the androconium (Fig. 31d) is obviously slenderer than those of <i>A. sybillina</i> (Figs. 31a–c); 5) in the male genitalia, the valva (Fig. 30d) is shorter and narrower than that of <i>A. sybillina</i> (Figs. 30e–h).</p> <p> <i>Aulocera longanfua</i> is also very similar to the nominate subspecies of <i>A. pygmaea</i> but can be distinguished from it by the combination of the following characters: 1) in the female, the white discal spots on both sides are smaller; 2) on the hindwing upperside, the white discal band is discrete in the spaces 1, 2 and 3, whereas it is more continuous in <i>A. pygmaea</i>; 3) on the hindwing, the white discal band in the spaces 1b to 3 is curved on both sides, whereas it is nearly straight in <i>A. pygmaea</i>; 4) the base of the lamina of the androconium (Fig. 31d) is wider and the distal stalk is somewhat longer, whereas it is gradually narrowing towards the basal stalk in <i>A. pygmaea</i> (Fig. 31f); 5) in the male genitalia, the subdistal section of the valva (Fig. 30d) is somewhat narrower than that of <i>A. pygmaea</i> (Fig. 30a). From the sympatric <i>A. pygmaea vadimi</i>, it can be distinguished by further characters in addition to those mentioned above: 1) in the male, on the forewing upperside, the brand is present, whereas it is absent or vestigial in <i>A. pygmaea vadimi</i>; 2) on the forewing upperside, the discal spots are usually larger; 3) in the female, on the forewing upperside, the discal spots are smaller.</p> <p> <b>Remarks.</b> Sakai <i>et al.</i> (2001) mentioned a record of <i>Aulocera sybillina</i> with the data as “Pingwu (Pingwu-Jiuzhaigou) (3,300 m), Sungqu (Songpan County), 16.VIII.1987 ” without any further comment. Although the information seems vague, the site “Pingwu-Jiuzhaigou, 3,300 m ” is clearly the same as Huangtu-liang Pass which is of the same altitude and is the type locality of <i>A. longanfua</i> and <i>A. pygmaea vadimi</i>. However, the collecting date is half a month later than that of <i>A. longanfua</i> and <i>A. pygmaea vadimi</i>. Since Sakai <i>et al</i>. (2001) did not illustrate any specimen with the above information, it is not known whether this record is the true <i>sybillina</i> or just a <i>longanfua</i>.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> China (N.
