Note: The holotype and paratype of X. cuprina Coquillett belong to different species. Xylota coquilletti auct. nec Hervé-Bazin, 1914: Hippa, 1978: 71, fig. 32 A; Stackelberg, 1952: 320 (Zelima), part; Violovitsh, 1983: 143, fig. 221. Xylota amamiensis auct. nec Shiraki, 1968: Mutin & Gilbert, 1999: 47, new name for X. coquilletti sensu Hippa, 1978; Mutin & Barkalov, 1999: 492. Diagnosis. A new species similar to X. coquilletti and X. fo Hull, 1944 (which also inhabit East Asia) in having the metatibia with a basoventral range of setulae, but differing from the former by having an entirely pollinose frons, a rather uniformly pilose mesonotum and a thin, acute spike on the metatrochanter, as well as in features of the male genitalia. Xylota fo has a very long curved spike on the metatrochanter, a sharply concave apical fourth of tergum IV (lateral view), the metafemur with an anterior row of 12–14 strong setae and a posterior row of 9–10 strong setae and also differs in features of the male genitalia (Hippa 1978). The male genitalia of X. fo figured by Huo et al. (2007) belong to “ X. coquilletti ” in their sense. Description. Male. Body length 8.2–10.5 mm, wing length 6–7 mm. Head. Face and frons entirely densely silverywhite pollinose. Vertex and occiput shining black dorsally, with bluish glow and scattered, erect white pile. Antenna brown, with darker basal 2 segments, basoflagellomere sometimes reddish ventrally. Eyes holoptic. Thorax. Postpronotum shining black laterally and dense white pollinose from within. Mesonotum shining back, with short, erect, pale pile. Scutellum shining black, pale pilose, sulcate, with long pale pile dorsoapically. Thorax more or less pollinose laterally, with denser pale pilosity on posterior anepisternum and katepisternum. Legs. Pro- and mesofemur mainly black except at the extreme apex, which is yellow, pale pilose. Pro- and mesotibia mainly yellow except for a more or less visible dark annulus at the middle. Pro- and mesotarsus mainly yellow except for the apical 2 tarsomeres, which are black. Metatrochanter with a short, thin, curved spike, its length shorter than the ventral setae on the metafemur. Metafemur black, mainly pale pilose except apical 1 / 6 with black pile, with an anterior row of 10–12 strong setae and a posterior row of 7–9 similar setae. Metatibia yellow on basal 2 / 5, with black setulae ventrally, and black on apical 3 / 5. Metatarsus entirely dark. Wing. Membrane hyaline, with brownish stigma; mainly microtrichose except for a small bare patch on the basal medial (bm) and posterior cubital (cup) cells, antero-basally. Abdomen. Visibly constricted in the middle, near connection between terga II and III. Tergum I usually black, tergum II black or dark brown, sometimes with a pair of diffuse reddish maculae; tergum III, as a rule, brown or reddish, usually paler basally; tergum IV brown or reddish, paler apically. Abdominal pile mainly pale except for areas of adpressed, very short, black pile on tergum II medially, tergum III postero-medially and tergum IV antero-medially. Sterna 7 and 8 pilose. Genitalia as in fig. 3. Female. Not reliably distinguishable from the related species X. fo. Examined material.

Russia: south of Khabarovsky Krai, Jewish Autonomous Oblast, south of Amurskaya Oblast, Primorsky Krai, Sakhalin Oblast, Japan: Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu, Ryukyu Islands. Natural history. The larva is unknown. Feeding adults were observed on the inflorescences of Senecio cannabifolius; frequently adults collect pollen from the leaves of flowering plants. Males are associated with freshly sawn tree trunks. It is a common species of Xylota in the urban territories of the Russian Far East.Published as part of Mutin, Valerii & Ichige, Katsuyoshi, 2014, A new species of Xylota Meigen (Diptera: Syrphidae) from the Far East, pp. 196-200 in Zootaxa 3878 (2) on pages 197-199, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3878.2.6, http://zenodo.org/record/22745

Junior subjective synonym of Xylota cuprina Coquillett, 1898 according to Mutin & Gilbert (1999); Mutin, 1988 b: 121, the repeated description.

Xylota huangshanensis He & Chu, 1992: 6, figs 11–14, ♂ holotype, Anhui: Huangshan, [Shanghai Agricultural College], not examined. Junior subjective synonym of Xylota cuprina Coquillett, 1898 according to Mutin & Gilbert (1999). Xylota vulgaris Yang & Cheng in Cheng & Yang, 1993: 330, figs 15–16, ♂ holotype, Guizhou: Huishui [Beijing Agricultural University], not examined, syn. nov. Zelima coquilletti: Stackelberg, 1952: 320 (Zelima), part. Remarks. When Coquillett (1898) described X. cuprina based on two males from Japan, he wrote in the original description that the “ type ” has the number 3999. The type specimens of X. cuprina were examined by Mutin in the National Museum of Natural History (Washington, DC). The holotype of X. cuprina (= X. coquilletti) with the label "No. 3999 " has genitalia similar to those of the X. aeneimaculata species-group sensu Hippa (1978). The study of its genitalia established the synonymy of X. cuprina and X. silvicola (figs 1–2) with X. coquilletti. The description of X. silvicola was published twice (Mutin, 1988 a, 1988 b). Based on the male genitalia of X. huangshanensis He & Chu, 1992, the latter can also be identified as a junior synonym of X. coquilletti (Mutin & Gilbert 1999). According to the figures of the male genitalia in the description of X. vulgaris Yang & Cheng, 1993, this name should also be identified as a junior subjective synonym of X. coquilletti.

Towards a Critical Edition of Francesco Filelfo’s “Consolatio ad Iacobum Antonium Marcellum de obitu Valerii filii"
No full text© 2015 Vita e Pensiero / Pubblicazioni dell'Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore. This article examines the transmission of Francesco Filelfo's Consolatio ad Iacobum Antonium Marcellum de obitu Valerii filii, and concludes that a critical edition of the Consolatio should be based on the incunabulum of 1483/84, the only relevant witness reflecting Filelfo's final redaction of the text. Its readings are to be weighed against other prime witnesses such as the dated manuscript Vat. lat. 1790, and Urb. lat. 1182, which originated in close proximity to the author and reflect most faithfully his orthographical preferences.status: Publishe
GENRE NATURE OF VALERII HERASYMCHUK’S DRAMA CYCLE“PLAYS ABOUT THE GREATS”
No full textDOI: 10.28925/2412-2475.2019.1410
Valerii Herasymchuk’s works “Plays about the Greats” are analysed in the article. They are described as artistic creation and remind fiction creative histories, which are not retold, but often performed.
The idea of therapeutic potential of creation and perfect biographies, realised through analogies and permanent text parallelism can be seen at genre level in a play “Cicuta for Socrates”. It is worth saying, that the author does not divide two vital histories into two separate actions, and through identical psychoanalitical peculiarities, misses two different biographic characters, and that is why the play genre is determined as psychoanalytical regardless “Beethoven Sweet Ones and Paganini Mistress”. The other play “The Fire Soul” is written as the creative history-tragedy where a number of artistic resources (large quatations, letters, flashbacks) are used. Having analysed the main content of another dramas, — “Riepin and Yavornytskyi”, “Shakespeare Taming”, “Servantes’ Mistake”, come to the conclusion, that the great place is devoted to Valerii Herasymchuk “Plays about the Great” creative history genre, but there is not one definite example of such works. Each work has its own set of artistic methods, elements of other genres, correlation of creative histories, with different epoches and types of protagonists
