Paratypes: 3 ad. 9(Ƥ), 2 subad. 8(Ƥ), 1 juv. 6, 1 juv. 5, 2 juv. 3, Tennessee, Sevier Co., above Laurel Falls, in soil under large poplars (Lirodendron tulipifera), 11 November 2004, leg. W. Reynolds & E. Gileh.— 11 specimens. FIGURES 21–28. Donzelotauropus dividuus sp. n., holotype, 3. 21, head, submedian and right part, tergal view. 22, right antenna, tergal view. 23, collum segment, median and left part, sternal view. 24, genital papillae and seta on coxa of leg 2, anterior view. 25, seta on trochanter of leg 9. 26, tarsus of leg 9. 27, posterior part of tergite VI and median and right part of pygidial tergum, tergal view. 28, posterior part of pygidial sternum showing the placing of setae b 1 and b 3. Scale a: 24; b: 21, 25–27; c: 22, 23, 28. Diagnosis. Though this species has only one pair of setae on the pygidial sternum, b 1, and thus has to be placed in Donzelotauropus, it shows many similarities with a species in Stylopauropus earlier described from Great Smoky Mountains, Stylopauropus sulcatoidus Scheller (Scheller & Bernard, 2005). They resemble each other in the shape of the antennal globulus g, the bothriotricha, the general plan of the anal plate and the shape of the posterior part of the pygidial tergum and its setae. However, besides the presence of the b 1 D. dividuus is easily distinguished from S. sulcatoidus by the proportion q/s, 0.9, not 0.5 and the shape of the posterior part of the anal plate, incision deep U-shaped and appendages curved inwards and distinctly pubescent, not incision shallow, broadly Vshaped and appendages straight, faintly pubescent.

We have analysed the levels of mRNA transcripts of the mutS- and mutL-homologous genes of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae during the course of meiosis. by quantitative RT-PCR. We found that all mutS homologues (MSH1-6) were induced during meiosis, whereas no evidence for regulation of the mutL homologues (PMS1, MLH1-3) was obtained. Temporal expression patterns indicative of co-regulation were observed for the gene pairs MSH4/MSH5 and MSH2/SPO11. Sequence comparisons of the 5 ' flanking regions revealed similar sequence stretches in the respective gene pairs, which may constitute regulatory elements. Similar sequences were also found in the 5 ' flanking regions of the pairs MSH1/MSH3 and MSH1/MSH6. Upstream of MSH2 three closely spaced sequences similar to UAS(H) elements were found, which - surprisingly - are located within the coding region of SPO21. Deletion of these elements resulted in loss of meiotic induction of MSH2. Genetic analysis of homozygous deletion mutants did not reveal any differences from wild type with respect to genetic distance estimates, aberrant segregation, or suppression of homoeologus recombination in an interspecies cross with Saccharomyces paradoxus

Mojingapauropus biappendiculatus n. sp. Figs 47 –60 Type specimens. Holotype: ad. 9 (&female;), Panama, near Ft. Sherman, Mojinga Swamp. in leaf litter, August 10, 1979, R.J. Snider leg. Paratype: ad. 9 (&female;), same data as holotype. Type specimens deposited in the Zoological Museum, University of Lund, Sweden. Derivation of name. From the Latin bis = two and appendix = appendage, referring to the appendages of the posterior part of last tergite. Description. Length. (0.65) 0.84 mm. Head (Figs 47–49). Posterior part covered by tergite I, only most anterior and lateral margins visible from above. Setae of three types: 1, anteriomedian one cylindrical, blunt, striate; 2, submedian and anteromarginal ones lanceolate-irregular; 3, a few lateral ones cylindrical, pointed, with short pubescence or glabrous. Cuticle of head coarse. Only small parts of temporal organs visible from above (Fig. 47), organs broadest anteriorly (Figs 48-49), tergal margin even, anterior and lower margins with irregularities, broad lobe in the direction of the mouth, only posterior and lower margins partly and narrowly uplifted. Antennae (Fig. 50). Segment 4 longish, five thin, cylindrical, annulated setae, their relativ lengths: p = 100, p ' = (80) 81, p '' = 49 (69), r = 49 (41), u = 6 (9). Tergal seta p 0.7 (0.8) of the length of tergal branch t. The latter branch almost cylindrical, 3.0 (3.3) times as long as the greatest diameter, (1.1) 1.2 times as long as sternal branch s, that branch (2.1) 2.3 times as long as the greatest diameter, anterodistal corner distinctly truncate. Seta q as seta r of segment four, short, (0.4) 0.5 of the length of s. Relative lengths of flagella (with base segments included) and base segments: F 1 = 100, bs 1 = (7) 8, F 2 = (40) 42, bs 2 = 5 (6), F 3 = (88) 94, bs 3 = 4 (5). F 1 2.8 (3.3) times as long as t, F 2 and F 3 1.4 (1.5) and 3.1 (3.3) times as long as s respectively. Distal calyces of F 1 and F 2 more pointed than those of F 3, distal parts of flagella axes widened only just below calyces. Globulus g subspherical with distinct, thin stalk, 2.9 times as long as its greatest diameter; ≈ 11 bracts; capsule flattened. Diameter of g almost equal to the greatest diameter of t.
