Antenna with 33 segments on both left and right.

Although currently <i>G. chintimini</i> is only known from the type locality at Marys Peak in the Oregon Coast Range, this species is similar to <i>G. ro t h i</i> and <i>G. newberryensis</i> from the Oregon Cascades, which would all be identified as <i>G. ro t h i</i> using the key published in Storozhenko (1988), given that they share similar antennal segmentation, relatively short cerci and a strongly asymmetrical male supra-anal plate. However, the species are quite distinct; in addition to having different COII mtDNA (Table 1), <i>G. chintimini</i> has a darker brown, less reddish body coloration and a relatively narrower head and prothorax than either <i>G. rothi</i> or <i>G. newberryensis</i>. The terminus of the male primary copulatory sclerite in <i>G. chintimini</i> differs from that of <i>G. rothi</i> in lacking an expanded apicaldorsal flange, which is also present in <i>G. newberryensis</i> although less pronounced than in <i>G. ro t h i</i>. The secondary accessory sclerite of the right phallomere is also distinct in comparison to both <i>G. ro t h i</i> and <i>G. newberryensis</i>.

[Review of] Vine Deloria, Jr., and Clifford M. Lytle. The Nations Within: The Past and Future of American Indian Sovereignty
No full textThe relationship between federal policy and Indian needs has been a tortured one, at best, and to illuminate the various dimensions of that relationship is a necessary, but by no means easy, task. Vine Deloria, Jr. , and Clifford M. Lytle have fortunately provided us with a creditable analysis of one aspect of the complex interaction between the concerns of U.S. Officials and those of Indian groups. The authors focus on the idea of self-government, tracing it from the paternalism of nineteenth century reservation procedures through New Deal reformism, termination, and the contemporary emergence of Indian nationalism. They differentiate nationhood -- a process of decision making that is free and uninhibited from self-government, which implies a recognition by the superior political power that some measure of local decision making is necessary. Deloria and Lytle realize that Indian sovereignty has been historically undermined to such an extent that present-day Indians can only hope to establish a measure of self-government instead of any feasible federal recognition of their nationhood
