Nuovi dati geonemici sui Cebrio di Liguria, Toscana e Sardegna
No full textNew geonemic data on some Cebrio from Liguria, Tuscany and Sardinia (Italy) (Coleoptera, Elateridae, Cebrioninae).
New findings of C. gigas (Fabricius, 1787) from western Liguria are added to the until now only known record, so confirming the presence of the species in Italy. First findings of C. dubius Rossi, 1790 from East section of Liguria are recorded. Geonemic data on the Sardinian endemic C. strictus Gené, 1836 and some observations about its morphological variability are given. New data on distribution of C. supramontanus Rattu & Cillo, 2012 and C. corsicus Jacquelin du Val, 1860 are also presented
Descrizione di una nuova specie di Cebrio della Sardegna occidentale(Coleoptera, Elateridae, Cebrioninae)
No full textDescription of a new species of Cebrio from S-W Sardinia (Coleoptera, Elateridae, Cebrioninae).
Cebrio melonii n. sp. from South-West Sardinia (locus typicus: Arbus, Bruncu Arcu) is here described and illustrated. At first sight the new species resembles Cebrio strictus Gené, 1836 but it is well differentiated for erected pubescence over the head, pronotum and all elytral surface, for more slender body and antennae, for larger eye diameter and for dorsal surface dark brown
Osservazioni sulla biologia di Cebrio sardous Perris, 1869 (Insecta Coleoptera Elateridae Cebrioninae)
No full textObservations on the biology of Cebrio sardous Perris, 1869 (Insecta, Coleoptera, Elateridae, Cebrioninae).
This work provides a contribution to the biology of Cebrio sardous Perris, 1869. First photographic documentation
of the egg, female and copulation in natural habitat are given. C. sardous is related to the late summer and autumn
rains. Males are good fliers, and reach the females living underground, near the surface. After copulation, rather short,
the female go deeper and, for several days, lay a number of eggs varying according to the size. In general, at least
for the fauna of the western Mediterranean region, it seems that the species of the genus Cebrio that appear in late
summer and autumn, suc

Audiomobiles, Sculptures and Conundrums
No full textRoberto Gerhard was a pioneer of electronic music in England creating a number of substantial concert, theatre and radio works from as early as 1954. Gerhard’s electronic music is one of the richest repositories for understanding the development of the composer’s late compositional technique. Apart from the Symphony no.3, ‘Collages’, none of Gerhard’s electronic music is published. This paper will discuss aspects of Gerhard’s electronic music, focusing on Audiomobiles (1958-59) and Sculptures (1963)
Roberto Gerhard’s Sound Compositions: A Historical-Philological Perspective. Archive, Process, Intent and reenactment
No full textThis research advances the current state of knowledge in the field of early tape music both empirically and methodologically. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact that the electronic medium exerted in the musical thinking of Roberto Gerhard, one of the most outspoken, prolific and influential composers in the Spanish diaspora whose musical legacy, for the most part unknown, is a major landmark in the early history of electroacoustic music. Gerhard’s personal tape collection, one of the largest historical archives of its kind reported in the literature, is exceptional for both its antiquity (50+-year-old tapes) and its abundance of production materials. Through the digitisation and analysis of the composer’s tape collection this research argues that the empirical study of audio documents sets out a basis for a broader understanding of textual processes. More specifically, the research demonstrates that the reconstruction of works based on magnetic tape sketches is a powerful method to advance the understanding of early tape music. This research also examines Gerhard’s sound compositions in relation to the post-war context in which they were composed. Finally, this research presents performance documentation that proposes an approach to the electroacoustic music repertoire in which creativity is not at odds with rigor and critical discernment demonstrating that archival study can be closely aligned to the concept of re-enactment
