Ming maritime governance and the Suppression of Lin Feng
No full textPiracy in Ming China during the 1560s and 1570s, while not frequently discussed, posed a unique maritime problem for officials to tackle. One threat they faced in this period was Lin Feng (active 1568–1580s), a pirate appearing on the coasts of Guangdong and Fujian provinces since the early Longqing period (1567–1572). Lin Feng was constantly seen clashing with the Ming military and had considerable influence; in 1574, he even sailed to Luzon, part of the modern-day Philippines, and appointed himself as the lord there. Eventually, he was evicted back to the Ming coasts, where the military suppressed his forces in 1576, early in the reign of the Wanli emperor (1572–1620). Previous scholars have noted Lin Feng’s trans-local impacts and portrayed him as a cultural broker between imperial China and the Philippines. What they neglected to do, however, was treat the conflicts and encounters he shared with officials as instances of Ming maritime governance.
To revisit the case of Lin Feng from a political perspective, this thesis uses records from gazetteers, Ming shilu, memorials, legal codes, and letters. It places him with Longqing and Wanli officials to trace the complex processes through which officials reached their decisions. This thesis presents four seemingly separate incidents involving Lin Feng and various Ming officials that became the milestones of the Suppression of Lin Feng, the campaign to eliminate his forces. Each of the officials discussed in these examples came from diverse backgrounds with varying levels of prestige. Yet they were all, as this thesis argues, motivated by two kinds of factors interwoven with each other: structural—the broader political, geographic, social, and economic contexts as well as the experience of their predecessors—and personal—opportunities to keep their careers or elevate their statuses while gaining material benefits. Making this argument can help this thesis highlight the paramount roles that officials played in this campaign and, in doing so, offer new understandings of Lin Feng as a historical character and position county and provincial-level officials as being integral to creating and enforcing policies for Ming maritime governance.Arts, Faculty ofHistory, Department ofGraduat

Paratypes: 4 males, same as holotype. Diagnostic characters. The adult male of N. pandum sp.n. can be distinguished from known species of the genus by the following combination of characters: anal point very broadly lanceolate with microtrichia in median ridge and apical margin, rounded at apex; superior volsella pad-like, expanded distally; median volsella curved, rounded at apex, with 2 long basal setae and 1 long median seta. Etymology. The species name is from Latin “ pandum ”, means curved, referring to the shape of the median volsella. Description. Male (n = 5). Total length 3.65−3.83 mm. Wing length 1.80−2.05 mm.

Width at apex of front tibia 45−50 mm, of mid tibia 50−55 mm, of hind tibia 50−60 mm. Lengths (in mm) and proportions of legs in Table 1. Hypopygium (Fig. 7). Tergite IX with 2 dorsal projections. Anterior projection completely divided into 2 oval lobes originating on posterior margin of anterior tergal band; each lobe 20−30 µm long, 15−20 µm wide in middle, each with 12−15 plumose setae 30−50 µm long. Posterior projection (Fig. 8) 40−50 µm wide at base, 10−15 µm wide at apex, apically rounded, with 11−13 setae 20−25 µm long. Anal point very broadly lanceolate with microtrichia in median ridge and apical margin, rounded at apex, 35−45 µm long, 30−40 µm at base, 40−50 µm in middle. Posterior margin of tergite IX (Fig. 9) with 10−12 long setae. Laterosternite IX with 3 setae. Phallapodeme 70−92 µm long. Transverse semi-circular, not medially widened, sternapodeme present.

Gonostylus 140−155 mm long, with 11−12 setae along inner margin in distal 1 / 3. HR 0.97−1.21, HV 1.43−2.55. Female, pupa and larva. Unknown Remarks. N. pandum sp.n. is similar to N. hibaratertium Sasa, 1993, but can be separated from N. hibaratertium on the basis of the following: (1) presence of microtrichia on the anal point of N. pandus sp.n., whereas absence of microtrichia on the anal point of N. hibaratertium; (2) the median volsella of N. pandus sp.n. curved, rounded at apex, with 2 long basal setae and 1 long median seta, whereas the median volsella of N. hibaratertium bifid, each branch with one apical seta, one branch with additional lateral seta. Adam and Saether (1999) divided Nilothauma into four species groups, the duminola, babiyi, brayi, and pictipenne groups. The species of brayi, and pictipenne groups have 2 dorsal projections. N. pandum sp.n. is close to the species of the brayi group in having 2 dorsal projections on the tergite IX and absence of pigmentation on wings, but it differs from the members of the brayi group in the presence of microtrichia on the anal point. N. pandum sp.n. can not falls in the pictipenne group, as wings of N. pandum sp.n. lack dark pigmentation (dark pigmentation presence in members of the the pictipenne group). Distribution. The species is known from Zhejiang Province of Oriental China.Published as part of Qi, Xin, Lin, Xiaolong, Wang, Xinhua & Shao, Qingjun, 2014, A new species of Nilothauma Kieffer from China, with a key to known species of the genus (Diptera: Chironomidae), pp. 573-578 in Zootaxa 3869 (5) on pages 574-576, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3869.5.7, http://zenodo.org/record/22693
