Salignacicola Batelka & Prokop 2021, gen. nov.
Salignacicola gen. nov. Type species. Macrosiagon ebboi Perrichot, Nel et Néraudeau, 2004. Etymology. Combination of the name of the type locality and the Latin suffix – cola (meaning inhabitant(s)). Masculine in gender. Te name is registered under ZooBank LSID urn:lsid:zoobank. org:act:D5E1D0C3-0B1C-4FA6-B2FB-1968308E3B6A. Material. Male holotype preserved as an amber inclusion found in Salignac, near Sisteron (France), Cretaceous (Cenomanian) [17]. Remarks. Tis species is interpreted not to belong to the subfamily Ripiphorinae (to which the genus Macrosiagon belongs) by Batelka et al. [19]. After re-examination of the male holotype, this species was tentatively excluded from Ripiphoridae, because of an unusual combination of characters: tibial spur formula 1-2-2; serrate pretarsal claws; putative biflabellate antennae (regarded as uniflabellate by [16: Fig. S3a]) with greatly prolonged thread-like antennal rami covered densely by long hair-like sensilla,reduced venation on hind wings; abdomen long, eight segmented with apex of ninth segment visible (sic), ultimate abdominal segment tapering posteriorly; very long hind legs; and very long metatibial spurs [16: Fig. S3, 17]. Its similarities in terms of characters with other Ripiphoridae considering the description of Melanosiagon gen. nov. are updated and discussed below.Published as part of Batelka, Jan & Prokop, Jakub, 2021, The earliest beetle with mouthparts specialized for feeding on nectar is a parasitoid of mid-Cretaceous Hymenoptera, pp. 1-12 in BMC Ecology and Evolution (207) (207) 21 (1) on page 6, DOI: 10.1186/s12862-021-01930-6, http://zenodo.org/record/573338
Chenxiella Liu, Ren & Prokop, 2009, gen. nov.
Genus Chenxiella gen. nov. Type species. Chenxiella liuae sp. nov. Etymology. In honor of Miss Chenxi Liu, who is a young paleoentomologist studying fossil hymenopterans at Captial Normal University, the collector of the type specimen. Feminine in gender. Diagnosis. Forewing: ScP anteriorly reticulate, ending on RA at distal third of wing; division RA and RP in basal fourth of wing, RA reaching anterior wing margin near apex; RP almost parallel to RA, and pectinate with one anterior branch and seven main posterior, most of them generally possess 2–3 secondary branches covering the whole wing apex, stem M + CuA long, division M and CuA distinct basally of the division of RA and RP; stem M diverging distally of division RA and RP; MA rather long, partly fused with RP, and then deeply bifurcated; simple MP terminally twigged; convex CuA emerging from convex M + CuA near the basal sixth of the wing, distally fused with CuPa; CuA fused with M at the very base of the wing, CuA + CuPa with eight main branches bearing two thirds of whole posterior wing margin; CuP divided into two branches (CuPa and CuPb), CuPa simple, fused with distal free part of CuA, area between CuPa and CuPb broad with a network of cells; CuPb divided into CuPbα and CuPbβ, CuPbα distally vanishing in a network. 1 A with two terminal branches, and close to CuPbβ, 2 A pectinate with five main branches; anal area distictly networks of cells and cross-veins between main veins reticulate. Remarks. The new genus is very similar to Sinopteron Prokop & Ren, 2007, which was collected from the same locality and horizon in Xiaheyan Village. It differs from Chenxiella mainly by the combination of the following characters: (1) RP pectinated with one anterior branch and seven main posterior branches instead RP pectinated with two anterior branches and six main posterior branches in Sinopteron; (2) MA rather long and partly fused with RP, and then deeply bifurcated; instead MA deeply bifurcated, and anterior branch of MA partly connected with RP; and (3) CuPb terminally bifurcated instead simple, without terminal twigging in Sinopteron.Published as part of Liu, Yushuang, Ren, Dong & Prokop, Jakub, 2009, Discovery of a new Namurian archaeorthopterid from Ningxia, China (Insecta: Archaeorthoptera), pp. 63-68 in Zootaxa 2032 on page 64, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18629
St. Prokop, Genesis of a "True Saint"
Tématem bakalářské práce je svatý Prokop a jeho zázraky. Cílem je zjistit, které
zázraky jsou originální svatoprokopské motivy, a které jsou převzaté od jiných svatých
mnichů. Hlavní pozornost je zaměřena na tři motivy jeho legendy, tedy boj s ďáblem, dar
prorocký a radikalismus, s kterými mnoho zázraků činí. Ty jsou pak porovnány s podobnými
zázraky jiných světců. Kapitola o jeho kanonizaci se pak zaměřuje i na historické pozadí, díky
kterému k ní vůbec mohlo dojít. Následuje podrobnější srovnání Prokopových zázraků, se
svatým Benediktem, který byl českému světci největším vzorem. Poslední kapitola je
vrcholem práce, protože dává přehled o skutečných původních motivech svatoprokopských.The theme of this bachelor's work is saint Prokop and his miracles. The aim is to find
which of these wonders are original saint Prokop´s motives, and which of these are taken
from another saint monks. Then main attention is paid to three motives: the fight with devil,
the gift of prophecy and radicalism, with whom he makes many miracles. These are then
compared with similar miracles from the others saints. The chapter about his canonization
aims also describe the historical background thanks to which it could ever happen. Then
follow the more detailed comparison of Prokop´s miracles with those of s. Benedict´s, which
was for the Czech saint the most representative model. The last chapter gives the survey of
original s. Prokop motives.Katedra historických vědDokončená práce s úspěšnou obhajobo
