Cardiodactylus gagnei Otte 2007
Cardiodactylus gagnei Otte, 2007 Cardiodactylus gagnei Otte, 2007a: 350; 2007b: 31. TYPE MATERIAL. — Vanuatu. [Malampa Province], Ambrym [Is.], Ranon to Mt.Toyo, 0-500 m, 2.IX.1979, W. C. Gagné et al., ♂ holotype (BPBM 16,777). Not examined. TYPE LOCALITY. — Vanuatu, Ambrym Is. DISTRIBUTION. — Vanuatu, Ambrym and Efate islands (Otte 2007a). DIAGNOSIS. — Species of average size, close in size and colouration to C. tankara n. sp., C. cheesmani and C. epiensis n. sp. Male differs from C. cheesmani by male genitalia and from C. tankara n. sp. by FW colouration, with a large light crescent including posterior part of mirror, and by genitalia (pseudepiphallic dorsal crest symmetrical, no basal protuberance near median shrinkage of pseudepiphallus, shape of endophallic sclerite).Published as part of Robillard, Tony, 2009, Eneopterinae crickets (Insecta, Orthoptera, Grylloidea) from Vanuatu, pp. 577-618 in Zoosystema 31 (3) on page 600, DOI: 10.5252/z2009n3a11, http://zenodo.org/record/539817
C-FOREST: Parallel Shortest-Path Planning with Super Linear Speedup
In (Otte and Correll 2013) we present C-FOREST, a parallelization framework for single-query sampling-based shortest-path planning algorithms. C-FOREST has been observed to have super linear speedup on many problems, e.g., paths of quality Ltarget are found 350X faster by 64 CPUs working in parallel than by 1 CPU. In (Otte and Correll 2013) C-FOREST is tested in conjunction with the RRT* algorithm. In the current work we perform additional experiments that show C-FOREST provides similar advantages when used conjunction with the SPRT algorithm. This reinforces our original claim that C-FOREST is generally applicable to a wide range of sampling based motion planning algorithms

Tergoceracris luquillensis Perez-Gelabert & Otte, 2003, n. sp.
Tergoceracris luquillensis n. sp. Figs. 2, 3, 5 F, 6 C, 7, 9, 20, 21 Diagnosis.— Differentiated from the other species as follows: furculae relatively short, not much flared at apex (Fig. 5 F); epiproct lateral ridges unilobed; off center mounds low, poorly developed (Fig. 6 C); tegmina green; lophi of epiphallus very elongate (Fig. 20 D). Description.— Male. Body completely green except for abdominal segments which are greenish brown. Head: Antennae with first 5 segments reddish, the rest brown. Pronotum: dorsally marked by dark annular area surrounded by concentric cream yellow bands. Pronotal side mostly green but with darker black band that does not reach either pronotal margin. Cream yellow band on pronotal side extending over to head. Wings: Tegmina slightly longer than pronotum length and completely green, with surface markedly reticular. Posterior area of wings more acute than in the other species. Abdomen: abdominal segments brown. Vertically elongated furculae smaller than in all other species, narrowing only slightly in the middle, flattening, separating but not widening on upper portion. Internal genitalia as in Figs. 20, 21. Etymology.—Name in aposition, in reference to its type locality. Type material.— Holotype: Male. PUERTO RICO, Luquillo Mts., 3,000 ft., Pico del Oeste, Harvard University Study Site, 26.vi. 1969, T. J. Cohn (ANSP). Allotype: Female. Same data as holotype (ANSP). Paratypes: One adult and four juvenile males, 2 adult females, same data as holotype (ANSP). Two males and 6 females, Sierra de Luquillo, Pico del Oeste, (in Luquillo Experimental Forest), 1150 m, 1718.vii. 1967, R. A. Howard, (UMMZ). One female, onlybearing El Yunque, Puerto Rico as collecting data (NMNH). One female, El Yunque, Caribbean National Forest, 1.4 km on trail to El Toro, on Ocotea leucoxylon (Lauraceae), 26.x. 2001, D. E.PerezGelabert and M. A. García, (DEPG). Habitat.— Wet forest in Sierra de Luquillo, eastern Puerto Rico. Some of the specimens collected by R. A. Howard have notes indicating they were taken on Tabebuia radiata (Bignoniaceae), and were observed tofeed on this plant. The female collected by the senior author in 2001 was found at the edge of the trail at an altitude of 700 800 m on Ocotea leucoxylon (Lauraceae).Published as part of Perez-Gelabert, Daniel E. & Otte, Daniel, 2003, Tergoceracris, a new genus and six new species of montane grasshoppers (Orthoptera: Acrididae: Ommatolampinae) from Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico, pp. 1-31 in Zootaxa 155 on pages 8-9, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.15697
‘“The Diplomatic Digestive Organ”':The Foreign Office as the Nerve Centre of Foreign Policy, c. 1800-1940
Foreign ministries form a central part of modern diplomatic practice. They emerged slowly and haphazardly from the late fifteenth century onwards. With the growth in scope – both geographical and temporal – and intensity of diplomacy came the need for a central organization that could control and coordinate policy at the seat of government. In Tudor and Elizabethan England, too, the steady growth of diplomatic activity spurred on institutional change in the shape of the Principal Secretary of State. Initially, an officer of the royal household, executing the decisions of the monarch and the Privy Council, over time much of his business came to be focused on foreign affairs
