The Hymenoptera collection of Lars Huggert housed in the Swedish Museum of Natural History [Elektronisk resurs]
No full textIn the autumn of 2006 the large insect collection of Lars Huggert (1942–2003) was kindly donated to the Swedish Museum of Natural History in Stockholm by the siblings of the collector. A first assessment of the size of the collection, estimated more than 30 000 specimens of Coleoptera, 23 000 specimens of Hymenoptera and about 2 000 specimens of Diptera. Here an inventory of the Hymenoptera part of the Lars Huggert donation is given including an account of type specimens of 32 taxa described by Huggert and currently housed in NHRS. Specimens of more than 1 330 species of Hymenoptera were included in the donation which enriched the existing NHRS collections immensely. Huggert described 80 species and 34 genera/subgenera in the families Diapriidae Haliday, 1833, Platygastridae Haliday, 1833, Scelionidae, Haliday 1839 and Pteromalidae Dalman, 1820 and these families are particularly well-represented in the donation.Under sensommaren 2006 anlände Lars Huggerts insektssamling till Naturhistoriska Riksmuseet (NHRS). Vid en första uppskattning av samlingens storlek beräknades till att bestå av 30 000 torr- monterade skalbaggar, 23 000 steklar och 2 000 tvåvingar. I den här artikeln ges en översikt av stekeldelen i Lars Huggerts samling, samt en typlista för de 32 stekeltaxa beskrivna av Huggert som återfanns i den donerade samlingen. Dessa finns nu i NHRS typsamling och är registrerade i våra databaser.Donationen innehöll material av minst 1 330 olika arter av steklar. Stekelfamiljer som hyllhorn- steklar (Diapriidae Haliday, 1833), äggmärkarste- klar (Scelionidae Haliday, 1839) och gallmyggeste- klar (Platygastridae Haliday, 1833) var särskilt väl- representerade, och berikade museets samlingar med tiotusentals exemplar och minst 330 nya arter.Huggert beskrev under sin livstid 80 nya arter, 34 släkten och undersläkten och ett tribus, huvud- sakligen inom dessa familjer samt enstaka pupp- glanssteklar (Pteromalidae Dalman, 1820).Förutom ett rikt tillskott av de grupper som Huggert själv studerade flitigast, fanns även material av stekelgrupper som saknades helt (fikonsteklar, Agaonidae Walker, 1846) eller fanns mycket få av i NHRS samling; gropglanssteklar (Perilampidae Förster, 1856), Roproniidae Bradley, 1905, Monomachidae Ashmead, 1902 och Vanhorniidae Crawford, 1909. Sammantaget är detta ett enormt viktigt och värdefullt tillskott av små och dåligt kända steklar som folk sällan samlar in till stekelsamlingen på Naturhistoriska Riksmuseet. Samlingen kommer vara en viktig källa för forskare och studenter som vill studera små parasitsteklar.</p

Descriptions and redescriptions of Trichopria species from Africa and the Oriental & Australian regions (Hymenoptera, Proctotrupoidea: Diapriidae)
No full textAbstractLectotypes and paralectotypes were designated for the following species, which are redescribed: Trichopria stratiomyiae Kieffer (Algeria, ex. Stratiomyia anubis Wiedemann), T. kenyae Kieffer (Kenya) and T. alticola Kieffer (Kenya). Described as new is T. fumipennis n.sp. (Gabon) reared from puparia of Drosophila libellulosa Tsacas & Legrand which is an egg-parasite of Malgassophlebia aequatoris Legrand (Odonata). T. longula Sundholm (S. Africa, Natal) is found in numbers in The Gambia, W. Africa. T. tachinidarllm Ferrière (Java, ex. tachinid puparia) is redescribed and compared to T. billaevora n.sp. (New Caledonia) reared from the tachinid Billaea agrianomei Musil.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe 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

On Telenomus, mainly European; redescriptions, new taxa, synonymies and combinations (Hymenoptera, Proctotrupoidea: Scelionidae)
No full textAbstractThe genus Nanopria Kieffer is synonymized with Telenomlls Haliday. Lectotypes were designated for Telenomus othus Haliday, T. heteropterus Haliday and T. laricis Walker. New names proposed are: T. abbreviatus and T. nysivorus, T. coccivorus Mayr is retained as a valid species and three new combinations are proposed. New described species are: T. eumicrosomoides and T. incisus. Synonymized species are: T. praetabani Szabó, T. oophagus Nikolskaya, T. stratiomyidarum (Szabó), T. nonnitens Szabó, T. pappi Szabó, T. longiclavatus and T. depressus (Szabó). Szabó's erroneously designated neotypes for T. othus and T. coccivonis are rejected.

Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
