Lectotypus (designated by STONE, 2017: 80): MADAGASCAR: sine loco, s.d., fl., du Petit-Thouars s.n. (P [P00057566]!; isolecto-: P [P00057567]!; BR [BR000000626115] fragment!). Notes. – The leaf shape and peduncle length of Lam & Meeuse 5624 (type of Memecylon meeusei) are unusual in comparison to the remaining collections assigned to Lijndenia lutescens (STONE, 2017). Because of this, it is rather unfortunate that the new combination L. meeusei must be taken up in accordance with the rule of priority. Under the present circumscription, however, these plants are regarded as conspecific. If future workers determine that the type of Memecylon meeusei belongs to a different species, then L. lutescens (Jacq.Fél.) Jacq.-Fél. would become the correct name for the plants previously known as L. lutescens (Jacq.-Fél.) Jacq.-Fél. The replacement name L. memecyloides R.D. Stone was illegitimate when published and will remain so unless conserved (ICN: Art. 6.4).Published as part of Stone, R.

Rapa Nui (Easter Island)’s Stone Worlds
No full textThis article explores the spatial, architectural and conceptual relationships between landscape places, stone quarrying, and stone moving and building during Rapa Nui’s statue-building period. These are central themes of the ‘Rapa Nui Landscapes of Construction Project’ and are discussed using aspects of the findings of our recent fieldwork. The different scales of expression, from the detail of the domestic sphere to the monumental working of quarries, are considered. It is suggested that the impressiveness of Rapa Nui’s stone architecture is its conceptual coherence at the small scale as much as at the large scale. </div

A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1
No full textSpectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

Archeometric Investigation of the Stone Tools of the Vatya Culture (Pest County, Hungary)
No full textWith the analysis of the middle Bronze Age (2000–1350 BC) Vatya culture findings in Pest county (Central Hungary) comprising of more than 400 polished stone tools and instrument tools this is the first archaeometric study with such scale in Hungary. In order to characterize petrographically the raw-material of the stone tools macroscopic and microscopic stone analyses were made together with mineralogical and geochemical analyses. In the course of the work a new digital database the Archaeometric Stone Tool Database was established. Based on the results, the material of the instrument stones is mainly sandstone and quartzite that were easy to collect from their source areas. Local volcanics, mostly amphibole containing andesite variations dominated among the material of the polished stone tools. Ophiolites (metamorphic basic rocks, serpentinized basic and ultrabasic rocks) were the raw-material of stone axes that indicate either more distant travels for raw-material or exchange import
