Specimens examined. Total 5 ɗ (paratypes), 1 Ψ (allotype). — Panama, Panamá Province: 1 Ψ, Pipeline road, 1.7–4.8 miles NW of Gamboa, 22 v 1970, leg. E. Morton (USNM); 1 ɗ, same data but 0 1 vii 1970, leg. E.S. Morton (TWD); 1 ɗ, same data but Río Frijoles, 23 I 1975, leg. M.L. May (MM); 1 ɗ, same data but Quebrada Juan Grande, 0 9 v 1975, leg. M.L. May (TWD); 2 ɗ, Limbo river at Limbo Hunt Club, near Pipeline Rd., 8 km NW of Gamboa (09°07'N, 79 ° 42 'W), 0 9 i 1977, leg. M.L. May (MM, RWG). Characterization. Posterior prothoracic lobe smoothly convex in male, in female smoothly concave and lacking projections (Fig. 5). Pterothoracic dorsum dark to mid-height of metepisternum (Figs. 2 f–g), with a dark stripe on metapleural suture in male, and in juvenile specimens a narrow faint yellow humeral stripe. Apex of male genital ligula with a shallow v-shaped cleft (Fig. 16 a) and latero-distal lobes short, broad, and curved medially (Fig. 16 c). Dorso-posterior margin of male S 10 projected posteriorly only slightly (Figs. 27 d– 28 d). Ventral branch of male cercus as long as base of cercus, approximately cylindrical (Fig. 28 d), in posterior view aligned with inner margin of cercus and diverging from opposite at tip (Fig. 30 d). Paraproct pointed (Fig. 28 d). Dorsal side of sub-basal plate of ovipositor slightly concave and ventral side slightly convex (Fig. 36 d). Diagnosis. Male of D. letitia most closely approximates D. donnellyi; both are diagnosed under the latter species. Male differs from D. flinti, D. muzoni, and D. peruviensis by the ventral branch of male cercus being aligned with cercus inner margin and diverging from the branch of opposite cercus at tip; from D. janirae by the ventral branch of cercus as long as base of cercus (Fig. 28 d) and postero-dorsal margin of S 10 not or only slightly projected posteriorly (Figs. 27 d– 28 d), and from D. loutoni and D. tennesseni by its pointed paraproct. Female posterior lobe of pronotum of D. letitia lacks ventro-lateral processes as in D. flinti, but it is unique by its smoothly concave margin (Fig. 5). Drepanoneura letitia further differs from D. flinti by its quadrangular sub-basal plate of ovipositor (sb, Fig. 36 d), which is acutely pointed (sb, Fig. 36 c) in the latter. Biology. Adults are inconspicuous, fly close to quiet water on margins of wooded streams (Donnelly 1992). Distribution. Panamá Province in Panama (Fig. 37).Published as part of Ellenrieder, Natalia Von & Garrison, Rosser W., 2008, Drepanoneura gen. nov. for Epipleoneura letitia and Protoneura peruviensis, with descriptions of eight new Protoneuridae from South America (Odonata: Protoneuridae), pp. 1-34 in Zootaxa 1842 on pages 20-21, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18322

Diffusive author(s), cohesive author: Analysis of S/N (1994)
No full textThis study indicates the ways in which various aspects of the author(s) are brought forth in Dumb type’s performance art, the S/N production. Previous research has suggested a non-hierarchical organization of Dumb type and the absence of a “privileged author” in Dumb type’s collaborative work, S/N. However, the results that I have investigated from member’s interviews on the creative process of S/N along with my analysis of the recorded images of S/N, indicate a different aspect of the author(s). First, S/N was created through, so to speak, the collective ideas of the members of Dumb type. Further, S/N has at least nine quotations from previous performances, installations, and printed writings, besides the work-in-progress technique. Explicating one of the “author functions” as given by Michel Foucault, each text has plural subjects of the author. However, it has been revealed from members’ interviews that Teiji Furuhashi had a decision-making role in selecting the members’ ideas within the performance. Since then, S/N has had plural subjects of creation; however, Furuhashi is one of the subjects of creation along with the “privileged author.” S/N has plural authors (diffusive authors) yet at the same time, it has a “privileged author,” Teiji Furuhashi (cohesive author)
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

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
