Alice and Phoebe Cary portraits
No full textThe Cary sisters became famous poets during the middle of the 19th century. Alice is shown on the left, while Phoebe is on the right. In 1838, Alice had one of her poems published in a Cincinnati newspaper. Eleven years later, Alice and Phoebe jointly authored "Poems of Alice and Phoebe Cary." The work received positive reviews, and the two women moved to New York City. Edgar Allen Poe, a leading American author, poet and literary critic, was an admirer of both women's work. William Holmes McGuffey included several of the women's poems in his "McGuffey Reader." These portraits are taken from "Howe's Historical Collections of Ohio," 1907
Melitaea phoebe subsp. caucasica Staudinger 1870
No full textM. phoebe caucasica Staudinger, 1870 [TL: “Kindermann ganz ähnliche Stücke im Caucasus fing (?- Helenendorf; Kindermann leg.)”]. The name caucasica was preoccupied by M. didyma caucasica Staudinger, 1861 and the name was replaced first by M. phoebe ottonis Fruhstorfer 1917. A lectotype female and a paralectotype male were designated by Nekrutenko (Hesselbarth et al. 1995: 2: 1028) from the Staudinger collection, housed at Zoologisches Museum der Humboldt Universität, Berlin (figs 5A, B, C & 6A, B, C). Verity subsequently also proposed a replacement name, caucasicola Verity, 1919, this being a synonym of ottonis. Kemal & Koçak (2011: 44) used the name ‘ Melitaea (Cinclidia) (phoebe) sextilis Jachontov, 1909 ’ as a replacement name giving it subspecific(?) status; however, Jachontov (1909: 285) used this name for a variety of second generation M. phoebe and, so far as the authors are aware, no author since has used the name sextilis in favour of ottonis Fruhstorfer, 1917. In fact the M. phoebe species group portrayed by Kemal & Koçak (2011: 44), in their article on eastern Mediterranean butterflies, included M. punica, a species absent from the eastern Mediterranean. This perpetuates confusion, which the first author with others has been trying to resolve. Hesselbarth et al. (1995: 3, Tafel 80/81: figs 30– 33 ♂; Tafel 82/83: figs 1– 4 ♀) placed ottonis as a synonym of M. phoebe. Although the lectotype female does not show all the characters typical of M. phoebe, for instance the underside submarginal black arches do not touch the intervening veins (see Fig. 5B), the paralectotype underside (Fig. 6B) certainly shows all the characters typical of M. phoebe. Recent authors, such Tshikolovets (2011: 497; 2003: plate 24: figs 16 m. and 17 f.), Tshikolovets et al. (2014: 318–319), van Oorschot & Coutsis (2014: 60) and Russell & Tennent (2016: 45, note 22) have all agreed that this is a subspecies of M. phoebe and not M. ornata, with which the present authors concur.Published as part of Russell, Peter J. C., Lukhtanov, Vladimir A. & Tennent, W.

Trajectories of solidarities in Asia and beyond. The work of Arahmaiani, Phoebe Ching Ying Man and Sun Shaokun: Arts activisms and gender-based violence through transnational perspectives
No full textIn this article, I explore how three women artists working in Asia and beyond – Arahmaiani (Indonesia, b. 1961), Phoebe Ching Ying Man (Hong Kong, b.1969), and Sun Shaokun (People’s Republic of China, 1980-2016) – employ diverse artistic media to address gendered violence in their specific cultural contexts, while building transcultural solidarities. Notions of visual activism, feminism and solidarity are interwoven to critically analyse Burning body, burning country (1998, 1999 and 2024) by Arahmaiani, Rewriting history (2009-2012) by Phoebe Man, and Circumcision (2014) by Sun Shaokun. These works are feminist interventions that respond to gendered violence, such as rape and female genital mutilation, and expose marginalised stories of sufferance, trauma and healing. I discuss how their feminist visual activism transcends cultural and geographical boundaries, and contributes to larger dialogues on gendered violence, activating spaces for solidarities and advocacy for gender justice in Asia and beyond
Melitaea phoebe subsp. amanica , Rebel 1917
No full textM. phoebe amanica Rebel, 1917 [TL: Kushdjula, Taurus Mountains; Das Dagh, Amanus Mountains, Hatay, Turkey]; syntypic material consists of a single male and two females in the Naturhistorisches Museum in Vienna, each having a red ‘type’ label. Hesselbarth et al. (1995: 2, 1031) and van Oorschot & Coutsis (2014: 63) synonymised this subspecies with M. phoebe punica telona and M. telona, respectively; the present authors certainly consider that this subspecies belongs to either M. ornata or M. telona rather than M. phoebe. Tóth et al. (2014) demonstrated that M. telona was present in Lebanon, to the South of the Nur mountain range and Russell & Pateman (2012) reared an egg batch from a female captured at Tuzlabeli geçidi, Muðla, western Turkey and demonstrated from the L4+ larval head colour that the population there was not M. phoebe but M. ornata. The first author considers that the specimens should probably be associated with M. telona but further DNA analysis is required to confirm to which species they belong. In order that this subspecific name can be in future firmly associated with a species we hereby formally designate the male specimen as lectotype for M. phoebe amanica Rebel, 1917. From figures 13A, B it can be seen that this specimen has the wing morphological characters typical of both M. ornata and M. telona rather than those of M. phoebe. The labels on the specimen pin (Fig. 13C) are as follows: (1) on white paper handwritten in black “Taurus/ Kushdjula/ 22.V.14”; (2) on white paper handwritten in black “ phoebe / amanica / Type [in red] Rbl”; (3) on white card typed in black “Misident:/ Melitaea telona, Russell 2021 ”; (4) on red paper typed in black “ LECTOTYPE / Melitaea phoebe amanica / REBEL, 1917 / designated Russell &/ Gaal-Haszler 2021”.Published as part of Russell, Peter J.

Interstellar Organics, the Solar Nebula, and Saturn's Satellite Phoebe
No full textThe diffuse interstellar medium inventory of organic material (Pendleton et al. 1994, Pendleton & Allamandola 2002) was likely incorporated into the molecular cloud in which the solar nebula condensed. This provided the feedstock for the formation of the Sun, major planets, and the smaller icy bodies in the region outside Neptune's orbit (transneptunian objects, or TNOs). Saturn's satellites Phoebe, Iapetus, and Hyperion open a window to the composition of one class of TNO as revealed by the near-infrared mapping spectrometer (VIMS) on the Cassini spacecraft at Saturn. Phoebe (mean diameter 213 km) is a former TNO now orbiting Saurn. VIMS spaectral maps of PHoebe's surface reveal a complex organic spectral signature consisting of prominent aromatic (CH) and alophatic hydrocarbon (CH2, CH3) absorption bands (3.2-3.6 micrometers). Phoebe is the source of a huge debris ring encircling Saturn, and from which particles (approximately 5-20 micrometer size) spiral inward toward Saturn. They encounter Iapetus and Hperion where they mix with and blanket the native H2O ice of those two bodies. Quantitative analysis of the hydrocarbon bands on Iapetus demonstrates that aromatic CH is approximately 10 times as abundant as aliphatic CH2+CH3, significantly exceeding the strength of the aromatic signature in interplanetary dust particles, comet particles, ad in carbonaceous meteorites (Cruikshank et al. 2013). A similar excess of aromatics over aliphatics is seen in the qualitative analysis of Hyperion and Phoebe itself (Dalle Ore et al. 2012). The Iapetus aliphatic hydrocarbons show CH2/CH3 approximately 4, which is larger than the value found in the diffuse ISM (approximately 2-2.5). In so far as Phoebe is a primitive body that formed in the outer regions of the solar nebula and has preserved some of the original nebula inventory, it can be key to understanding the content and degree of procesing of the nebular material. There are other Phoebe-like TNOs that are presently beyond our ability to study in the organic spectral region, but JWST will open that possibility for a number of objects. We now need to explore and understand the connection of this organic-bearing Solar System material to the solar nebula the the inventory of ISM materials incorporated therein
