Holotype ♂, paratypes 8♂ and 20♀ (NHMSU), CHINA: Chongqing, Wulong, Tudi Town, Tiansheng Village, Xiaodong Cave, 29°31.853'N, 107°50.817'E, altitude 1050 m, 17 October 2010, L. Dou and Y. Lin leg. Diagnosis. Male of S. wulongensis differs from males of all other congeners with the exception of S. bifurcata by the furcate embolus (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6A–D, 6a–d, 6G–H, 6g –h); it differs from male of S. bifurcata by the narrower, longer oval bulb, the embolus with two equilong tip branches, and the embolus starts from the submesialback surface of bulb, but the embolus of S. bifurcata with asymmetric branches that origins from prolateral surface of bulb (Fig. 6E–e vs. Fig. 6F–f). Female of S. wulongensis seems also close to S. bifurcata having a similar vulval structure, but it can be distinguished by the lager “ω”-shaped inner vulval plate, and the longer, weakly sclerotized central process (Fig. 7F vs. Fig. 7D).

    Singaporemma banxiaoensis Lin & Li, 2014 Figures 6B–b, 7C Singaporemma banxiaoensis Lin & Li, 2014: 42, figs 4–6, 16C–D, 20A Examined material. Holotype ♂, paratypes 1♂ and 1♀ (IZCAS), CHINA: Guangxi, Pingxiang, Xiashi Town, Xinming Village, Banxiaotun, Banxiao Cave, 22°5.542'N, 106°52.148'E, altitude 175 m, 26 July 2011, X. Wang leg. Diagnosis. Male of this species is similar to S. halongense (Fig. 6A) and S. lenachanae (Fig. 6D), but can be distinguished from the latter two by the narrower, pointed embolic tip (Fig. 6b vs. Fig. 6a, 6d), and by the vestigial white eyespots lacking black ocular base in the both sexes (see Lin & Li, 2014: fig. 4G–H vs. Lin et al., 2017: figs 16E–F, 21A). Female is close to S. takensis sp. n. in having a similar configuration of vulva, but differs from the latter by the inverted triangular inner vulval plate, the wider, shorter central process (Fig. 7C vs. Fig. 5C–D). Description. See Lin & Li, 2014: 42. Distribution.

    Lowest electronic states of neutral and ionic LiN

    No full text
    We have investigated the potential energy curves (PECs) of the LiN heteronuclear diatomic molecule, including its ionic species LiN+ and LiN−, using explicitly correlated multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI-F12) calculations in conjunction with the correlation consistent quintuple- basis set. The effect of core–valence correlation, scalar relativistic effects, and the size of the basis sets has been investigated. A comprehensive set of spectroscopic constants determined based on the above-mentioned calculations are also reported for the lowest electronic states and all systems, including dissociation energies, harmonic and anharmonic vibrational frequencies, and rotational constants. Additional parameters, such as the dipole moments, equilibrium spin-orbit constants, excitation energies, and rovibrational energy levels, are also documented. We found that the three triplet states of LiN, namely, X 3∑−, A 3Π, and 2 3∑−, exhibit substantial potential wells in the PEC diagrams, while the quintet states are repulsive in nature. The ground state of the anion also shows a deep potential well in the vicinity of its equilibrium geometry. In contrast, the ground and excited states of the cation are very loosely bound. Charge transfer properties of each of these states are also analyzed to obtain an in-depth understanding of the interatomic interactions. We found that the core–valence correlation has a substantial effect on the calculated spectroscopic constants.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Atmospheric Remote Sensin

    Review of Mayer, R.; Knothe, F.; Shuo, H. (2022) Reflected beauty: Chinese reverse glass paintings from the Mei Lin Collection

    No full text
    In this well-documented, bilingual, and richly illustrated catalogue, published for the long-anticipated exhibition Reflected Beauty: Chinese Reverse Glass Paintings from the Mei Lin Collection at the University Museum and Art Gallery of the University of Hong Kong (September 2021-January 2022), the authors give us a profound insight into the phenomenon of reverse painting on glass and mirror paintings, with a particular focus on those from the Mei Lin Collection assembled by the Sinologist, author, and translator Rupprecht Mayer and his wife Haitang Mayer-Liem. Composed of over one hundred works acquired in East Asia between 1968 and 2012, this is one of the world's most important collections of Chinese reverse glass paintings from the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries.Modern and Contemporary Studie

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

The undivided cribellum and male palp with a retrolateral tibial apophysis indicate that this new genus belongs to Dictynidae O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1871. Funny Lin & Li, gen. nov. is similar to some Chinese Cicurina Menge, 1871 species by having six eyes (see Li & Wang, 2017), 2 pairs of spermathecae and a dorsal tibial apophysis but can be distinguished by the retrolateral tibial apophysis divided into two parts (vs. retrolateral tibial apophysis undivided in Cicurina), conductor partially wrapped around embolus (vs. conductor and embolus separate in Cicurina) and in females, the copulatory duct is inconspicuous (vs. copulatory duct long and conspicuous in Cicurina). Description. Small sized. Body length 2.00–2.21. Carapace oval, covered with sparce black setae, color gradually darkens dorsally. ALE largest, PME smallest, anterior eye row recurved. Fovea distinct. Body and legs pale yellow, covered by black setae. Cribellum undivided. Abdomen uniformly white. Palp.
