    Stenodynerus punjabensis Qasim, Carpenter et Rafi, sp. nov. (Figs. 1–4) Type material. Holotype: ♀, Pakistan, Punjab province, Multan: 30.2674° N, 71.5018° E, Elevation: 123 m, July, 2015 (leg. M. Qasim) [deposited in the National Insect Museum (NIM), National Agriculture Research Centre Islamabad, Pakistan]. Etymology. The specific name punjabensis refers to the Punjab region where the type specimens were collected. Diagnosis. Distinguished from other species of Stenodynerus by body black with yellow and light yellowish ferruginous markings and covered with dense and large punctures, clypeus truncate apically, T1 reticulate at declivity and S2 evenly convex. Description. Female: Holotype body length from dorsal side approximately: Head 0.8 mm; Mesosoma 3.23 mm; T1+T2 3.23 mm; forewing length approximately 7 mm. Structure: Clypeus apically truncate and with sparse punctures. Mandible five-dentate with long distal tooth. Interantennal space with median prominence. Area between eyes and antennae lacking macropunctures. Frons with coarse punctures. Cephalic foveae shallow and small. Pronotum, scutum, scutellum and mesopleuron densely punctate. Propodeum with large deep, shallow punctures as compared to pronotum, scutum and scutellum. Humeri slightly pointed anteriorly with dorsal carina present only laterally, pronotum anteriorly with shining and sloping surface and with few punctures, median foveae forming a V-shaped depression. Parategula with its hind margin strongly concave. T1 with coarse punctation appearing reticulate at declivity. S1 with central longitudinal ridge, punctation reduced adjacent to this. S2 with basal groove coarsely ridged; evenly convex, with basomedian sulcus. Color: Body black with yellow markings as follows: Transverse band across basal half of the clypeus; dorsal base of scape; interantennal spot; spot on temple; a thick transverse band, briefly interrupted medially, on pronotum; large mesopleural spot; whole metanotum; apical bands on T1, T2 and S2. Light yellowish ferruginous markings as follows: whole venter of scape; tegula largely; parategula; apical half of fore and mid femora, apex of hind femur; all tibiae and tarsi. Remarks. In the key by Gusenleitner (1981) this species comes closest to xanthomelas (Herrich-Schaeffer), which has been recorded from Iran. We have examined specimens of xanthomelas in the collection of the American Museum of Natural History, and the clypeus is different, being truncate apically in punjabensis and emarginate in xanthomelas. A truncate clypeus is also found in sapidus (Giordani Soika), which we have not seen, but according to Gusenleitner’s key the second metasomal sternum is different, being convex in punjabensis but flat in sapidus. The key by Gusenleitner (1981) may be modified (and translated) to key out the species now known from Pakistan as follows.Published as part of Qasim, Muhammad, Carpenter, James M., Rafi, Muhammad Ather, Khan, Muhammad Rafique & Khan, Muhammad Rahim, 2018, A new species of Stenodynerus (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Eumeninae) from Pakistan, pp. 271-274 in Zootaxa 4370 (3) on pages 271-274, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4370.3.5, http://zenodo.org/record/114553

    Ghayat al-amani and the life and times of al-Hadi Yahya b. al-Husayn: an introduction, newly edited text and translation with detailed annotation

    Full text link
    The thesis is anchored upon a text extracted from an important 11th / 17th century Yemeni historical work. This text deals primarily with al-Hādī ilā 'I-Haqq, the founder of the Zaydī Imamate in the Yemen that lasted well over a thousand years. AI-Hādīs imamate, of considerable significance in itself, also coincides with one of the most turbulent periods of early Yemeni mediaeval history. The- edited Arabic text, with its accompanying apparatus criticus. Is to be found at the opposite end of this volume. The Introduction considers various aspects of Imam al-Hadī’s life, religious ideas and aspirations and matters directly connected with the edited text and the work of which it forms a part. Among the most important subjects discussed are the MSS used in the production of the edited text, the problem concerning the authorship of Ghāyat al-amānī and the relationship of the latter work to Anbā' al-zaman. A short biography of al-Hādī is provided, together with a treatment of the historical background to ai-Hādīs imamate. The introduction also describes the editorial method followed with regard to the text, and certain key personal names and toponyms are dealt with there. The method employed by the author of the Ghāyat is to record the events of any one year by Itself. I have translated one year at a time and then followed it by the annotations appertaining to it. It is hoped that by means of these annotations. (some of which through necessity are quite detailed ), the text will be better understood. The numerous personages, tribal names and toponyms are considered, as well as problems concerning points of chronology and various matters of historical and religious significance. Specific comment is made upon certain interesting terms or any unusual or striking vocabulary. The thesis concludes with maps, genealogical tables and a comprehensive bibliography
