Knud’s Horseshoe Bat Rhinolophus canuti French: Rhinolophe de Knud /German: Knud-Andersen-Hufeisennase / Spanish: Herradura de Knud Other common names: Canut's Horseshoe Bat, Canuti Horseshoe Bat Taxonomy. Rhinolophus canuti Thomas & Wroughton, 1909, “ Island ofJava,” Indonesia. Restricted by O. Thomas and R.. Wroughton in 1909 to “Kalipoetjang, Tji-Tandoei River, S.Java.” Rhinolophus canuti is included in the euryotis species group and is probably related to. creaghi and R arcuatus, although it has not yet been included in any phylogenetic studies. Two subspecies recognized. Subspecies and Distribution. . c. canuti Thomas & Wroughton, 1909 — Java (three localities), and Nusa Barong ail'd Bali Is. . c. timorensis R. E. Goodwin, 1979 — Timor I. Descriptive notes. Head-body 51-62 mm, tail 19-24 mm, ear 21-24- 1 mm, forearm 47-6-51- 2 mm. Fur is long and fine. Dorsal pelage is variable, ranging from dark red to wood brown (hairs paler at base), and ventral pelage varies between wood brown and light drab. Ears are large. Noseleafhas concave sided lancet; connecting process is very low (slightly more developed in timorensis', and curved, and has fringe of hairs along the edge; sella gradually narrows to rounded tip and there is a tuft ofhair between sella and lancet (hairs much less dense than in Creagh’s Horseshoe Bat, R creaghi), which varies in color from reddish brown (timorensis) to straw yellow (canuti); horseshoe is wide (c.ll mm). Skull is heavily built (zygomatic breadth slightly exceeding mastoid breadth); anterior median swellings are well inflated and extend posteriorly; lateral swellings are prominent; posterior swellings are relatively reduced; rostral profile is sharply concave; sagittal crest is well developed; frontal depression is well to moderately developed; supraorbital crests have sharp ridges. C 1 is moderately strong and long; P2 is relatively large and within the tooth row, or crowded slighdy out of line; P3 is small and completely extruded, or rarely missing; P9 and P4 are in contact Dental formula is the usual of 32 teeth for the genus, or only 30 teeth when a lower premolar is missing. Habitat. Found almost exclusively in intact forest, although it may occasionally forage over cultivated land. Recorded at 550 m on Timor. Food and Feeding. No information. Breeding. No information. Activity patterns. Knud’s Horseshoe Bat roosts in caves by day. Movements, Home range and Social organization. Knud’s Horseshoe Bat appears to roost in large colonies. Status and Conservation. Classified as Vulnerable on The IUCNed List. Knud’s Horseshoe Bat is currendy only known from a few scattered localities. It prefers undisturbed forests, which severely limits its distribution. The species was thought perhaps to be extinct inJava, but recent sampling efforts have shown that it is still present. This species is threatened by deforestation and roost disturbance throughout its distribution. Bibliography. Csorba eta/. (2003), Goodwin (1979), Hutson, Kingston & Csorba (2008), Ikranagara eta/.

No full textBiochemical Composition and Antioxidant Properties of Lavandula angustifolia Miller Essential Oil are Shielded by Propolis Against UV Radiations
No full textUV radiations are principal causes of skin cancer and aging. Suntan creams were developed to protect epidermis and derma layers against photodegradation and photooxidation. The addition of antioxidant plant extracts (i.e. essential oil) to sunscreens is habitually performed, to increase their UV protective effects and to contrast pro-radical and cytotoxic compounds present in these solutions. According to these observations, in the present work, the alteration of chemical composition and bioactive properties of Lavandula angustifolia Miller essential oil, exposed to UV light, was investigated. UV induced a significant deterioration of lavender oil biochemical profile. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of this solution, in in vitro tests and directly on B16-F10 melanoma cells, greatly decreased after UV treatment. Our results also showed that essential oil was shielded from UV stress by propolis addition. Even after UV treatment, bee glue highly protected lavender oil secondary metabolites from degradation and also preserved their antiradical properties, both in in vitro antioxidant assays and in cell oxidative damage evaluations. This research proposed propolis as highly efficient UV protective and antiradical additive for sunscreens, cosmetics and alimentary or pharmaceutical products containing plant extracts
APPLICATION OF THE EMPIRICAL PREDICTIVE DAMAGE MODEL OF HISTORICAL CHURCHES
No full textStrong seismic events are the main cause of serious damage to cultural heritage, especially to historical churches characterized by a lack of efficient resisting mechanisms and by high vulnerability due to their structural systems peculiarities. Their poor seismic performance is demonstrated by the recurrence of specific seismic damage mechanisms. In this paper, an empirical probabilistic damage predictive model recently presented in the literature is used to provide a scenario dependent risk assessment in a seismic prone area in Italy. In this response model, the damage is expressed by a continuous index and the seismic action is described by a scalar intensity measure. For the illustrative case study, a sample of churches falling into a limited area of Marche Region, hit by the Central Italy 2016 seismic sequence, has been chosen.
The sample includes all the historical churches belonging to the Archdiocese of Camerino-San Severino. The damage scenario following a seismic event of magnitude 5.8, generated by the Camerino fault, has been evaluated to illustrate the capability of this model in the prediction
of post-earthquake situation. Risk maps obtained by means of the method presented in the paper, can provide a notable support to the organization of post-event emergency actions and to the planning of preventive actions for the risk mitigation
The fluvial dynamics of the Arno River - 4. Map of the morphological-sedimentary and human characteristics of the Arno river bed and alluvial plain (Table 7 “MONTEVARCHI”).
No full textThe results of a survey of the morphological-sedimentary and human characteristics of the Arno River bed and plain of the upper Valdarno, including the confluence of the Ambra Creek and St. Giovanni Valdarno, are reported by means of a thematic map at 1:10,000 scale. In this stretch, the river flows in an almost straight line with alternate side bars, within a plain having an average width of 1 to 2 kilometers. The present planimetric form of the river bed derives from the number of training works and canalisations undertaken in this section from the beginning of the 17th century, and which have caused, as the most visible consequence on the morphology of the course, a noticeable reduction in the width of the bankfull channel (from 300-500 metres to the present 150 metres), and the disappearance of interlacement, which was very frequent before 1700. During recent decades, the morphological and sedimentary characteristics of the river have been strongly influenced by intense gravel extraction, and by the construction of the artificial lakes of Levane and La Penna immediately upstream. These factors have certainly influenced the sedimentary equilibrium of the river, causing or encouraging erosive phenomena: the river is affected by a notable lowering of its bed, while the planimetric activity is very limited since there is hardly an erosion of the banks. The sedimentary bodies have a low mobility and a tendency to remain "suspended" with respect to the present level of the low waters. The sedimentary characteristics of the river bed are also considered in this paper and are graphically documented: the river is gravelly, with the average diameter of the material being between -3 and -6 phi. The bank protection works grant the river bed an elevated planimetric stability. On the other hand, the lowering process of the bed has made consolidation work on existing bridges necessary. The construction of a dam by E.N.E.L. has contributed to an altimetric fixation of the river bed bottom. The main aquifers present in the alluvial plain are distributed in correspondance to the coarse flood material, especially along the ancient river bed. Usually, the groundwater is affected by a field of motion which converges towards the river and which seems to be fed by them, except for local and temporary inversions of the groundwater-river relationships, especially in those areas with a greater water withdrawal. As far as the risk of flooding is concerned, this paper is limited to reporting the situation after the flood of November 4, 1966 (the maximum flow was reached in Montevarchi: 2,580 m^3/sec). On this occasion however, the tributaries caused the most damage. The flooded area of 1966 can only give us an indication of the areas which are more at risk of flooding should the same conditions repeat themselves, even if one must consider that some of the tributaries have undergone works of reinforcement, bridling and raising of the embankments. Only a few points of localised flooding have remained more or less unchanged, for example around bridges
