    Brachida luciphila nov.sp. (Figs 11-12) T y p e m a t e r i a l: Holotype, D.O. Afrika, Gomba, 1912, lux, leg. Inst. Amani (MNHUB). D i s t r i b u t i o n: Length 1.8 mm. Body convex and shiny, head and abdomen brown, pronotum and elytra yellowish-red, antennae (with terminal part lost) reddishbrown with the two basal antennomeres yellow, legs yellow. Fore-body devoid of reticulation, abdomen evidently reticulate. Puncturation of the fore-body very superficial. Spermatheca Fig. 12. C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: The spermatheca of the new species is similar to that of B. nairobiensis PACE 1985 from Kenya.

The eyes of the new species are longer than the postocular region, in dorsal view, those of B. nairobienses are shorter than the postocular region, in dorsal view. E t y m o l o g y: The name of the new species means "lover of the light" because the only sample was collected at lightPublished as part of Pace, R., 2012, New data and new species of Aleocharinae from Tropical Africa in the Natural History Museum of the Humboldt University, Berlin (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae), pp. 1331-1362 in Linzer biologische Beiträge 44 (2) on page 1335, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.533529

C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: This new species is distinguished from A. borneensis PACE, 2002 from Borneo by the apex of the aedeagus, which is narrower, and by the long flagellum among the internal sclerotised pieces of the aedeagus, which is absent in A. borneensis. E t y m o l o g y: The name of the new species means "flagellum bearer". The flagellum is among the internal sclerotised pieces of the aedeagus.Published as part of Pace, R., 2014, Aleocharinae from Sabah (Borneo) collected by Guillaume de Rougemont (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae), pp. 727-794 in Linzer biologische Beiträge 46 (1) on page 732, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.530675

Granulation of pronotum and elytra fine and very superficial. First to third free abdominal tergites covered with squamous sculpture, the fourth and fifth with sparse Puncturation. Spermatheca: Fig. 228. C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: In its habitus and structure of the spermatheca this new species is similar to M. kinabaluensis PACE, 2008 also from Borneo, but the head and elytra of the new species are brown (yellowish-red in M. kinabaluensis), the spermatheca has an oval distal bulb (spherical in M. kinabaluensis), and the proximal portion of the spermatheca is curved and not rectilinear as in M. kinabaluensis. E t y m o l o g y: The new species takes its name from Borneo.Published as part of Pace, R., 2014, Aleocharinae from Sabah (Borneo) collected by Guillaume de Rougemont (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae), pp. 727-794 in Linzer biologische Beiträge 46 (1) on page 765, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.530675

    Mesomegaskela rougemonti nov.sp. (Figs 17 and 101-103) T y p e m a t e r i a l Holotype, Sabah, Danum Valley, B.R.L., f.i.t., 14-16.II.2007, G. de Rougemont leg. (CROU). Paratypes: 5 exx., same provenance as the holotype (CROU, MSNV). D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 5-5.2 mm. Body shiny, reddish, head and elytra brown, antennae reddish-brown, legs reddish. The whole body covered in very superficial short and adherent, silky pubescence. Posterior margin of the elytra with eleven long bristles. Abdomen without reticulation and with fine and very superficial Puncturation. Posterior margin of each of the four basal free tergites with ten long bristles. Aedeagus: Figs 101- 102; spermatheca: Fig. 103. C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: In its habitus and the form of the spermatheca, the new species is similar to M. adesi PACE, 1999 from Hong Kong. It differs in the pronotum which has a length/width ratio of 0.85, in M. adesi 0.87, and above all in the form of the spermatheca. Whereas in M. adesi the proximal portion of the spermatheca is wound in four coils, in the new species the coils are more numerous (Fig. 103), and more convoluted. E t y m o l o g y: The new species is dedicated to its collector, our colleague, the staphylinid specialist Guillaume de Rougemont.Published as part of Pace, R., 2014, Aleocharinae from Sabah (Borneo) collected by Guillaume de Rougemont (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae), pp. 727-794 in Linzer biologische Beiträge 46 (1) on page 740, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.530675

    Production of pace as collaborative activity

    No full text
    In this paper we investigate the concept of pace development and management among groups of people. We explore and compare groups visiting museums, and groups virtually co-located in a mixed reality system for a museum. In considering pace, and how to design to support it, we have to consider more than the speed or location of information display. We have to also take into consideration the social formation of pace through features such as the visitors' awareness of each other's location and attention. By considering aspects of collaboratively produced pace such as presenting engagement and disengagement, we offer suggestions as to how social handling of pace might be better supported by technology

D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 6.1 mm. Body shiny and yellowish-red, head reddishbrown with occipital part reddish, abdomen reddish-brown with posterior border of the free abdominal tergites reddish, free tergites three and four brown, pygidium yellowishred, antennae brown with the three basal antennomeres and apex of the eleventh yellowish-red, legs reddish with femora yellowish-red. Body devoid of evident reticulation. Puncturation of the body strong. Disc of the head without puncturation. Spermatheca Fig. 69. C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: The spermatheca of the new species is similar to that of Z. uhligi PACE 1999 from Namibia. It differs the proximal portion of the spermatheca being longer than that of Z. uhligi and in the base of the free tergites being clearly punctate and not superficially punctate as in Z. uhligi. E t y m o l o g y: The new species is dedicated to C. Bayer, his collector.Published as part of Pace, R., 2012, New data and new species of Aleocharinae from Tropical Africa in the Natural History Museum of the Humboldt University, Berlin (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae), pp. 1331-1362 in Linzer biologische Beiträge 44 (2) on pages 1344-1345, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.533529

    Brachysipalia errans nov.sp. (Figs 35-36) T y p e m a t e r i a l: Holotype, D. O. Afrika, Kilimandscharo, ca. 2500-3000 m, addome Bismarokhüng oberhalb Marangu, S von Mawensi Hochweiden, II.1912, leg. Chr. Schröder (MNHUB). D e s c r i p t i o n: Length 2.2 mm. Body shiny and reddish-brown, pronotum and pygidium reddish, antennae reddish-brown with the two basal antennomeres reddish, legs yellowish-red. Reticulation of the head very superficial, that of the pronotum evident, that of the elytra strong, that of the abdomen superficial. Puncturation of the head fine and little evident. Granulation of the pronotum very superficial, that of the elytra evanescent, that of the abdomen transverse and superficial. Spermatheca Fig. 36. C o m p a r a t i v e n o t e s: The spermatheca of the new species is similar to that of B. volans PACE 1995 from Kenya, but it is smaller and the umbilicus of the distal bulb of the spermatheca is short and blunt at the apex, while that of B. volans is long and acute at the apex. The proximal portion of the spermatheca of the new species is a little arched, that of B. volans has form of complete coil. The reticulation of the pronotum of the new species is evident, that of B. volans absent. E t y m o l o g y: Normally species of Brachysipalia are wingless or micropterous. The new species possesses functional wings that enable it to disperse widely.Published as part of Pace, R., 2012, New data and new species of Aleocharinae from Tropical Africa in the Natural History Museum of the Humboldt University, Berlin (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae), pp. 1331-1362 in Linzer biologische Beiträge 44 (2) on page 1340, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.533529
