    Labiotermes leptothrix Mathews Labiotermes leptothrix Mathews, 1977: 208 –210 [imago (Fig. 149, 160), soldier (Fig. 148), enteric valve armature (Pl. 49)] Labiotermes pellisetaceus nomen nudum, Mathews 1977: 201, 207, 259, 262 [figure captions only] Holotype: imago, female (MZSP), examined. Type­locality: Brazil: Mato Grosso, Xavantina. Imago. Described and illustrated by Mathews (1977: 208–209). Soldier (Figs. 6 A–B, 11 F). Described by Mathews (1977: 209). Additional measurements are presented in Table 2. Comparisons. The soldier of L. leptothrix is easily recognizable by the presence of numerous microscopic hairs on the head capsule. However, these hairs are only visible with magnification of 40 X or higher and adequate light. The most similar species are L. longilabius and L. brevilabius, which lack these microscopic hairs and have different labra. Worker (Figs. 6 C–F, 13 F, 14 D, 15 K–L, 16 F). Head capsule and postclypeus with numerous bristles. Pronotum with numerous bristles on anterior lobe and a row of bristles on posterior margin. Mesonotum with a line of bristles on posterior margin. Front coxa with a lateral hump near base. Antenna with 15 articles. Fontanelle large and rounded. Enteric valve with 5 finger­like ridges of unequal sizes, covered with fine spines. Mixed segment with two elongate mesenteric lobes; large lobe with narrow tip; small lobe about one third the length of the large one. Measurements in Table 3. Comparisons. The worker of L. leptothrix can be recognized by the very large apical teeth on both mandibles and the enteric valve armature, which has 5 ridges. Geographical distribution. L. leptothrix occurs in the northern part of the Cerrado biome (Fig. 21). Most records are from cerrado vegetation, but Mathews (1977: 210) also found it in a valley forest. Remark 1. Mathews (1977: 234, plate 49) states that the enteric valve of L. leptothrix has 6 finger­like plates (ridges). However, his own illustration shows only 5 ridges. All specimens we examined had 5 ridges, not 6. Remark 2. Labiotermes pellisetaceus is a nomen nudum which appears in figure captions in Mathews (1977), obviously as a result of an error. The association of a name with illustrations alone does not satisfy the requirements of article 13 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN, 1999). The fact that the original description of L. leptothrix was published in the same book is irrelevant. The name itself should be accompanied by a description or definition that states in words characters that are purported to diferentiate the taxon. This name is not available and therefore is not to be treatead as a real synonym. Material examined BRAZIL. Amazonas. Humaitá: s., w., 01.vii. 2003, G.C. Costa (UnB­ 4784). Goiás.

    THE A 3ΠX1Σ+^{3}\Pi-X^{1}\Sigma^{+} TRANSITION OF ALUMINUM MONOBROMIDE REVISITED

    1. W. B. Griffith and C. W. Mathews, J. Molec. Spectrosc 104, 347-352 (1984) 2. H. Bredohl, I. Dubois, E. Mahieu and F. Melen, J. Molec. Spectrosc. 145, 12-17 (1991)Author Institution: Laser Spectroscopy Facility, Department of Chemistry, The Ohio State UniversityThe two most recent reports1,2reports^{1,2} of the A1ΠX1Σ+A^{1}\Pi-X^{1}\Sigma^{+} transition of AlBr show remarkable agreement in many of the measured line positions. Nevertheless, there are some significant differences in some of the derived constants. The present paper addresses some of these differences. The spectrum has been recorded in emission in the region 2700 - 2800 {\AA} using a Bruker IFS 120 HR Fourier transfrom spectrometer at a resolution of 0.03cm10.03 cm^{-1}. These results permit comparison to photographic data while allowing for the numerous advantages of digital data collections common to Fourier transform spectroscopy. The results are in good agreement with previously reports for the 0-0 hand. The 1-1 band, on the other hand, demonstrates some of the discrepancies previously noted. Results will also be presented on further refinements of assignments for other bands in the system

See Schodde and Mason, 1999: 257–258, Christidis and Boles, 2008: 185–191, and Higgins et al., 2008: 589.</p> <p> HOLOTYPE: <b>AMNH 694711</b>, adult sex?, collected on the Barron River, on 7 June 1910, by the Dodds (no. 20). From the Mathews Collection (no. 5041) via the Rothschild Collection.</p> <p> COMMENTS: Mathews gave his catalog number of the holotype in the original description; it bears, in addition to the Dodds original label, Mathews and Rothschild type labels. The Dodds lived at Kuranda, 16.49S, 145.39E (USBGN, 1957), which is on the middle Barron River, and the type was probably collected near their home. Mathews noted the range as ‘‘ Queensland’ ’; therefore all of the Queensland specimens in Mathews’ collection when this form was described comprise his type series. Paratypes in AMNH are: <b>AMNH 694707</b> (Mathews no. 3170, also the holotype of <i>mab</i>, see above), <b>AMNH 694708</b> (3171), adult male, collected on Mount Elliot by W. Stalker; <b>AMNH 694709</b> (3169), female, collected on Mount Elliot by Stalker; <b>AMNH 694712</b> (8039), sex?, collected on the Barron River on 30 July 1910 by the Dodds. A specimen collected at Gracemere in 1881 by C. Lumholtz was not acquired from R. Collett, ZMO, by Mathews (1912b: 25) until after the publication of <i>ivi</i> on 31 January 1912, and other Queensland specimens were not collected until after that date. The specimen cataloged by Mathews as no. 5040, a Dodd specimen from Kuranda, 13 May 1910, did not come to AMNH and is a paratype, if found.</p>Published as part of <i>Mary, 2011, Type Specimens Of Birds In The American Museum Of Natural History Part 9.

    Wpływ ruchu drogowego na stężenia trzech frakcji pyłu zawieszonego (PM) i jego główne składniki w dużym mieście Górnego Śląska

    The study concerns the assessment of the traffic influence on the concentrations of three particulate matter (PM) fractions and their basic components. The PM samples were collected simultaneously at two receptors in Katowice. The measurement sites represented the so-called urban background and traffi c points. The contents of the organic and elementary carbon as well as water-soluble ions were determined in the samples. It has been observed that the traffic (car engines) pollution emissions enrich the submicron and fine PM particles with the elementary carbon at a typical urban background in southern Poland. On the other hand, the infl uence of the re-suspension of the road and soil dust, caused by traffic, on the concentrations and chemical composition is observed for the coarse PM fraction.W pracy oceniono wpływ ruchu drogowego na stężenia trzech frakcji pyłu i ich podstawowych składników. Próbki pyłu pobrano równolegle w parze receptorów w Katowicach. Jeden z punktów pomiarowych zlokalizowany w punkcie tzw. tła miejskiego; drugi reprezentował tzw. punkt komunikacyjny. W próbkach oznaczono zawartość węgla organicznego i elementarnego oraz jonów rozpuszczalnych w wodzie. Stwierdzono, że w typowym obszarze miejskim południowej Polski wpływ emisji zanieczyszczeń z silników samochodowych ujawnia się w przypadku pyłu submikronowego i drobnego poprzez wzbogacenie ich cząstek w węgiel elementarny. Wpływ resuspensji pyłu drogowego i glebowego wywołanej ruchem samochodowym na kształtowanie stężeń i składu chemicznego widoczny jest natomiast w przypadku frakcji pyłu grubego

    THE B2Σ+x2Σ+B^{2}\Sigma^{+}-x^{2}\Sigma^{+} SYSTEM OF 12C16O+^{12}C^{16}O^{+} AND 13C16O+^{13}C^{16}O^{+}

    Address of Misra, Ferguson and Rao: Department of Physics. The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, 43210. Address of Mathews: Department of Chemistry, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, 43210.Author Institution:A 10-meter Czerny-Turner infrared spectrometer has been modified and adapted into an instrument with a 50 cm focal plane suitable for photographic recording of spectra between about 1800 and 8000 Angstroms. The 20cm×40cm20 cm \times 40 cm Bausch and Lomb plane grating used in the Czerny-Turner system has been precisely calibrated employing several standard wavelengths. The emission spectrum of CO+CO^{+} has provided a good test for the resolution of the remodeled spectrograph in the ultraviolet. A hollow cathode discharge lamp has been employed to generate the 0-0, 0-1, and 0-2 bands of the B2Σ+X2Σ+B^{2}\Sigma^{+}-X^{2}\Sigma^{+} system of 12C16O+^{12}C^{16}O^{+} and 13C16O+^{13}C^{16}O^{+} in emission. A nonlinear least-squares fitting rountine has been used to analyze the bands. In the case of 12C16O+^{12}C^{16}O^{+}, current data have been analyzed taking full advantage of available microwave data for the ground state, thereby permitting comparisons with previous results. Results of the study on 13C16O+^{13}C^{16}O^{+} provide the first determination of molecular constants for this isotopic species in the B2Σ+B^{2}\Sigma^{+} and the X2Σ+X^{2}\Sigma^{+} electronic states
