Megaphyllum taygeti Strasser 1976

Megaphyllum taygeti: Felesaki et al. 2010: 360; Enghoff & Kime 2009. Material examined. NMNH: Greece: Crete Island, Psiloritis Mt, 1600–2000m, 11.V. 1984, leg. P. Beron, det. J.–P. Mauriès. Distribution in the Balkans. Greece: Peloponnesе, Lakonia, 12km W from Sparta, 1000–1300m (type locality) (Strasser 1976); Crete Island, unspecified locality (Felesaki et al. 2010). World distribution. Endemic to the island of Crete and Peloponnese, Greece. Remarks. The only Megaphyllum species connecting the southern Peloponnese to Crete. Strasser described M. taygeti on the basis of a single male individual and did not assign it to any of the existing subgenera because of its unique gonopod structure (Strasser 1976). Investigation of vulvae and non-gonopodal structures strengthens an outstanding status of the species, maybe also differentiating it from the whole genus, but further investigations are necessary.Published as part of Lazányi, Eszter, Vagalinski, Boyan & Korsós, Zoltán, 2012, The millipede genus Megaphyllum Verhoeff, 1894 in the Balkan Peninsula, with description of new species (Myriapoda: Diplopoda: Julida: Julidae), pp. 1-47 in Zootaxa 3228 on page 25, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.21487

Reprint of "The Border Event in the Everyday: Hope and Constraints in the Lives of Young Unaccompanied Asylum Seekers in Turkey"
No full textThis article addresses the everyday lives of young male migrants in a state care facility for unaccompanied minor asylum seekers in Istanbul, Turkey. We focus on how the EU-Turkey Statement, which came into force in March 2016, affected the young people’s options and hopes and how they responded to the resultant strengthening of border control. Drawing on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in Istanbul and the Aegean area between 2015 and 2016 we show how this agreement became enmeshed with the young people’s life trajectories during a period of increasing authoritarianism in Turkey. While current contributions to border studies in Turkey mainly discuss new strategies of joint border management, the border spectacle of the irregular corridor to Europe and emerging humanitarian interventions at the borders, this article traces how political and legal transformations of border control trickle down to the everyday of unaccompanied minors. We suggest analysing the EU–Turkey border regime in 2015/16 as a ‘critical event’ (Das [2007]. Life and Words: Violence and the Descent Into the Ordinary. Berkeley: University of California Press) and show how violence, exclusion and humanitarianism affect young men’s lives
Balkanopetalum beskovi Strasser 1973
No full textBalkanopetalum beskovi Strasser, 1973 Figs 79. Type locality: ‘Topchika Höhle bei Dobrostan’. Literature records: Topchika Cave near Dobrostan (Strasser, 1973: 429); Yamata Cave near Dobrostan; Hralupa Cave near Dobrostan; Druzhba Pot hole near Dobrostan (Beron, 1994: 83). Strasser (1973: 429) referred his earlier (Strasser 1969: 145) record of rhodopinum juveniles from Garvanyovitsa Cave near Turen to beskovi, but the identity of these specimens remains uncertain. Material examined (all from Bulgaria): 2 MM, 3 FF, 3 juv., Asenovgrad District, Dobrostan Village, Topchika Cave, 19.02.1997, T. Ivanova leg.; 4 MM, 12 FF (2 MM, 2 FF, ZMUC), same village, Druzhba Pot hole, 26.09.1992, P. Beron leg.; 1 M, 1F, same village, Hralupa Cave, 10.06.1961, G.

Bachvarov leg.; 2 FF, same village, Pirkovskata Cave, 1,200 m alt., clay, 20.10.2001, B. Petrov, V. Beshkov leg.; 2 FF, 1 juv., Mostovo Village, Zmiin burun Pot hole, 980 m alt., 18.04.1993, P. Stoev leg. Diagnosis. This species differs from its congeners by the following combination of characters: The anterior coxal process has a small tooth at its base; the posterior coxal process is straight; the femoroid has a basal tooth; the ovoid plate is thin and sharpened; the distal femoroid process is black, medially incised with two well developed lateral processes; the solenomerite is trifid (Figs 7, 8). The prefemur of male 7th legpair is moderately swollen mesally (Fig. 9). Chaetotaxy, see Table 3. Notes. This species occurs in caves and pot holes in the karst massif of Dobrostan, the central part of the Rhodopi Mts. Beron (1972, 1994) referred to this species as B. beshkovi Strasser, since the name of the person, which it honors is currently transliterated as Beshkov. However, Strasser (1973) transliterated the name as Beškov and in the specific name correctly omitted the diacritical mark over the "s". B. beskovi coexists with typical cavedwellers like Cordioniscus schmalfussi Andreev, 2002 (Isopoda), Rhodopioniscus beroni (Vandel, 1965) (Isopoda), Trichoniscus rhodopiense Vandel, 1965 (Isopoda), Troglohyphantes bureschianus Deltshev, 1975 (Araneae), and Histopona tranteevi Deltshev, 1978 (Araneae).Published as part of Stoev, Pavel & Enghoff, Henrik, 2003, Systematics, phylogeny and biogeography of genus Balkanopetalum Verhoeff, 1926 (Diplopoda: Callipodida: Schizopetalidae), pp. 1-26 in Zootaxa 272 (1) on page 10, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.272.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/501436
