Distribution. Japan (Honshu, Shikoku). Primary type examined. Holotype of Siobla metallica (Fig. 4 g–i): ♀, “ 16. VII. 1929, Mt. Jonen, Takeuchi” “ Siobla metallica Takeuchi, Holotype ” (OPU). Other material examined (see Appendix). 159 specimens (42 ♀ and 117 ♂). Variation. The length varies from 12.0 to 15.0 mm in the female and 10.0 to 13.5 mm in the male. The colouration varies little. In both sexes, the whitish marking on each lateral ventral margin of the tergum 2 usually occupies only the anterior part reaching to the spiracle, while it rarely extends to the posterior margin of the tergum. Remarks. This is the only species of the S. metallica group (Niu & Wei 2010; Niu et al. 2012) known in Japan and it is easily recognized by its metallic bluish colouration among the Japanese Siobla species. For separation of this species from the other members of the species group, see Niu et al. (2012). In their figure 23, Niu et al. (2012) gave a mark in the coastal region of Okayama or Hiroshima prefecture in southwestern Honshu to show a distribution record of S. metallica. This is an incorrect record based on a simple technical error. This species is unlikely to occur in that area and there is no previous collection record.Published as part of Shinohara, Akihiko, Wei, Meicai & Niu, Gengyun, 2013, Revision of Siobla (Hymenoptera, Tenthredinidae) from Japan, pp. 1-40 in Zootaxa 3746 (1) on page 18, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3746.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/28529

Distribution. Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu [new record]). Primary type examined. Holotype of Siobla ferox var. hirasana (Fig. 4 a–c): ♀, “ 22. VI. 1927, Mt. Hira, Takeuchi” “ Siobla ferox var. hirasana Takeuchi, Holotype ” (OPU). In the original description, the collection date of the holotype is noted “ June 22, 1928 ”, whereas the label data attached to the holotype is “ 22. VI. 1927 ”. We regard the difference as a lapsus. Other material examined (see Appendix). 150 specimens (58 ♀ and 92 ♂). Variation. The length varies from 12.5 to 16.0 mm in the female and 10.5 to 14.0 mm in the male. The colouration shows slight variation. In the female, the antenna is brown with the four or five apical antennomeres always black and two basal antennomeres often partly black. The posterior margin of the pronotum and the mesoscutellum (except for the outer margin) are always pale brown. The mesoscutellar appendage is always black. The metascutellum sometimes has a small brown mark medially. The hind trochanter and trochantellus are always pale brown. The fore and mid femora vary from almost entirely brown to almost entirely black. The abdominal tergum 1 is black, often with an obscure brown spot laterally, but never with a brown posterior margin. The males usually have more black areas on the antenna and the thorax than the females, though the basal flagellomeres always remain mostly or entirely pale brown. In a few very dark males, the pale marking on the mesoscutellum is missing and the tegula is mostly blackish. Remarks. This species was originally described as a variety of S. ferox (Takeuchi, 1929) and has been mixed with it in collections. Siobla hirasana is a member of the S. ferox group defined by Niu & Wei (2010). The apically and often basally black and medially pale brown antenna of the female, the weakly convex mesoscutellum, the entirely black mesoscutellar appendage and metascutellum (sometimes with small pale mark) and the entirely or almost entirely black abdominal tergum 1 will separate S. hirasana from S. ferox. The concept of S. ferox by Yano (1932), Esaki et al. (1939) and Takeuchi (1952) should include the present concept of S. hirasana. The female specimen shown by Togashi (1965) as S. ferox (31 in plate 123; also 2539 in plate 142 in Togashi, 2008) has basally and apically black antenna, a pale brown mesoscutellum, and an entirely black abdominal tergum 1. We were not able to locate Togashi’s specimen but it most probably belongs to S. hirasana. An examination of the specimens identified as S. ferox by Naito (1982) and Naito et al. (2004) has shown that at least part of them also belong to S. hirasana.Published as part of Shinohara, Akihiko, Wei, Meicai & Niu, Gengyun, 2013, Revision of Siobla (Hymenoptera, Tenthredinidae) from Japan, pp. 1-40 in Zootaxa 3746 (1) on pages 12-14, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3746.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/28529
Siobla formosana Takeuchi 1927
Siobla formosana Takeuchi, 1927 (Figs 1 e, 1 f, 4 e, 4 f, 8 a–c, 9 k, 9 x, 10g, 10 h) Siobla formosana Takeuchi, 1927: 208. ♀, type locality: Musha, Taiwan (China). Siobla formosana: Niu & Wei, 2011: 162. redescription. Distribution. China (Taiwan). Remarks. This species was redescribed in detail in Niu & Wei (2011). Siobla formosana is very close to Siobla fumipennis Malaise, 1945 but differs from it in the basal part of wings in both sexes hyaline; the pterostigma dark brown; the second abdominal tergite entirely yellow brown and metabasitarsus pale brown in female; the abdominal tergite 4 in male largely yellow brown; and the trochanters usually yellow brown. S. formosana is also similar to S. jiangi and S. zuoae. See the key above for the differences between them.Published as part of Niu, Gengyun & Wei, Meicai, 2013, Revision of the Siobla formosana group (Hymenoptera: Tenthredinidae), pp. 41-68 in Zootaxa 3746 (1) on page 48, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3746.1.2, http://zenodo.org/record/28530
Avaliação das Redes Eletrônicas de Comunicação Internet e Intranet para a Construção do Conhecimento: Universidade Estadual de Maringá
O presente artigo tem por objetivo avaliar se a Internet e a Intranet contribuem para a construção do conhecimento numa instituição de ensino superior, numa abordagem a partir do modelo de Nonaka e Takeuchi. Para o desenvolvimento da presente pesquisa foram analisadas as páginas da Internet e da Intranet da UEM, bem como foi realizada uma pesquisa através de um questionário estruturado numa amostra cuja característica, além de ser funcionário da Universidade Estadual de Maringá, deveria ser integrante da Carreira Técnico-Administrativa, com cargo pertencente às classes VII e VIII desta Carreira. A presente pesquisa caracterizou-se como exploratória e descritiva e foi realizada sob os moldes de estudo de caso, tendo constatado-se que as tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação não têm contribuído para a construção do conhecimento, no modelo proposto por Nonaka e Takeuchi, principalmente pelo fato de a Instituição não possuir a estrutura mínima necessária para isso. Faltam aplicativos disponibilizáveis aos seus clientes e padronização/manualização, o que impossibilita a interatividade entre os funcionários, onde esses possam trocar experiências e conhecimento com agilidade e dinamismo

Ito just after killing, to retain coloration in life. one on median lobe and one on each of lateral lobes, mesopostnotum, small spot on each convex part of metascutum anterolateral to each cenchrus, and very narrow stripe along posterior margin of metapostnotum. Inner surface of hind femur apically blackish brown; antennal flagellum and tibiae and tarsi slightly brownish. Wings hyaline, very slightly stained with blackish brown; veins black, with veins C, Sc and R 1 and basal parts of anal veins yellowish white; stigma yellowish white, with large blackish brown spot posteroapically. Structure and punctuation generally similar to female. Anterior margin of clypeus incised to 0.56 × clypeal length (Fig. 3 E); malar space about 0.2 × diameter of median ocellus; postocellar area about as long as wide (Fig. 3 D); head behind eyes in dorsal view much shorter than eye, lateral sides weakly roundly convex, much narrower than across eyes; relative lengths of antennomeres 1–9 about 7: 4: 15: 12: 10: 7: 6: 6: 6 (Fig. 2 D, E); hind tarsomere 1 about 0.92 × length of tarsomeres 2–5 together. Subgenital plate very broadly rounded with nearly truncate apex. Genitalia as in Fig. 9 A–D, I–K; harpe rather narrow, with inner basal part produced; valviceps in dorsal view (Fig. 9 A) with outer apical margin rounded, and in lateral view (Fig. 9 C, D, I–K) with ventral margin not strongly convex and thus anteroventral and posterodorsal margins gently converging towards apex. Larva (hitherto undescribed). Middle instar (Fig. 1 C): Head pale brown with round black spot including eye; trunk entirely greenish white; entire insect covered with very thin wax. Last feeding instar (Fig. 1 A): Similar to middle instar but wax layer slightly thicker. Prepupa (Fig. 1 B): Similar to last feeding stage but shorter and more vivid in color; wax covering missing and dorsum of trunk inconspicuously darkened. Variation. Female: The length ranges from 8 to 10.5 mm. The specimens from Nikko are paler than those from other areas, with the black marks on the postocellar area, metapostnotum, and abdominal terga 1 and 2 often reduced or missing. The length/width ratio of the postocellar area ranges from 0.94 to 1.20 (average 1.07) and the ratio of the depth of ventral incision of the clypeus to the entire length of the clypeus ranges from 0.52 to 0.61 (average 0.57). Male: The length ranges from 7 to 9 mm. The color pattern is fairly stable in Tochigi specimens but the specimens from other areas often have more dark marks as follows. The black ocellar spot is often extended onto the anterior part of the postocellar area. The sunken areas of the mesoscutal and metascutal lateral lobes as well as the metapostnotum are often largely or entirely black. The dorsal surface of each abdominal tergum sometimes has paired lateral dark brownish marks. The length/width ratio of the postocellar area ranges from 1 to 1.18 (average 1.08) and the ratio of the depth of ventral incision of the clypeus to the entire length of the clypeus ranges from 0.52 to 0.65 (average 0.6).

On July 22, 2008, Saito first found the sawfly larvae on the leaves of Stewartia pseudocamellia in the campus of Nikko-meiho High School in Kujira Town, at an altitude of 670 m, Nikko City, Tochigi Prefecture. On July 23, 25 larvae were collected and reared in a container. Three larvae executed extra molt and became prepupae on July 23, eight larvae did the same on July 24, five larvae on July 25, five larvae on July 26, three larvae on July 27 and one larva on July 28. All the prepupae went into the soil soon after the extra molt. In the soil, the prepupa made an earthen cell and stayed inside. One male adult emerged on May 2, 2009, and one female adult each emerged on May 7 and 14, respectively. From May 11 to 25, 2009, adults were found gathering on the foliage of the host plant in the same locality. They were active already at 7: 30 in the morning. Saito first found feeding young larvae on May 14 and they were numerous on June 2. On June 12, several larvae were put in a rearing container; one larva became a prepupa and went into the soil on June 27 and one larva each on July 1 and 2 (Fig. 1 B), respectively. On August 15, Saito examined the earthen cells in the soil in the container. The cells were made of hardened soil and measured about 5 × 10mm. Saito also observed the occurrence of a large number of larvae at the same site on June 26, 2010. The egg is laid into the tissue on the underside of a leaf, one egg per leaf. The larva is solitary. The young larva infests surface tissues on the underside of the leaf eventually making a small round hole (Fig. 1 D), whereas the late instar larva also eats margins of the leaves (as in Fig. 1 I). The prepupa is quite active before entering the soil. Remarks. This species is very similar to E. flatoserrula and E. shinoharai. The three species are distinguishable mainly by the shape of the lancet of the ovipositor as shown in the key. The male is known only for E. nigromaculata among the three species. Taxonus nigromaculatus was described from three females, the holotype from Kyushu and one paratype each from Shikoku and Honshu (Takeuchi, 1952). In Takeuchi’s collection, we found three females, two of which had the paratype labels. The remaining female is labeled “ 26. V. 1932, Mt. Sobo, Takeuchi” and had no type labels but it is doubtless the holotype, because its collection data perfectly agree with those of the holotype mentioned in the original description.Published as part of Shinohara, Akihiko, Saito, Takeshi, Ibuki, Shin-Ichi & Hara, Hideho, 2014, Sawflies of the genus Emphytopsis (Hymenoptera, Tenthredinidae) associated with Stewartia (Theaceae) in Japan, pp. 301-318 in Zootaxa 3884 (4) on pages 302-309, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3884.4.1, http://zenodo.org/record/25215
