A review of the scholarship on Ebenezer Cook and a critical assessment of his works
Interest in Ebenezer Cook has increased steadily, if slowly, since Moses Coit Tyler wrote an enthusiastic critique of The Sot-weed Factor in A History of American Literature, 1607-1765 in 1878. Much of that interest, however, has been little more than curiosity about a minor poet who remains an elusive literary figure of early eighteenth-century Maryland; even today, in spite of several recent assessments of his major poem s, relatively little critical attention has been given to the works of this often robust and witty author who wrote what are apparently the first American Hudibrastic poem, the first American mock-heroic, and the first belletristic work composed and published in the colonies south of Pennsylvania. Neither has there ever been a complete edition of the Cook canon, which consists, as far as we know, of three major poems--The Sotweed Factor (1708, revised extensively in 1731), Sotweed Redivivus (1730), and The History of Colonel Nathaniel Bacon's Rebellion in Virginia (1731)--and four elegies addressed to prominent Maryland citizens of Cook's day. This dissertation provides a comprehensive study of Ebenezer Cook that include critical analyses of all his known poems and transcriptions of the current canon based on first editions or earliest-known copies and manuscripts as w ell as historical background and commentary (much of Cook's poetry contains observations on the political, social, and economic issues of contemporary Maryland), bibliographical data, and a survey of Cook scholarship

Material examined: Type series: FMC, Liberia; holotype female, one mile north of Suehn, stream, 30.vi. 1958, Cook (Coll. 99); paratypes: same site as holotype, 20.ii. 1958 (Coll. 96); Coll. 88, 2/0/0 (details see Cook 1966). New records: Côte d’Ivoire, River N’zi near Fetekro (F), drift day, 13.i. 1977 Statzner 0/ 1 /0 (mounted); Ghana: Namini stream, Kakum NP, 5 º 23.396 N, 1 º 23.294 W, 12.ii. 2013 Smit 1 /0/0; Ankasa River, Ankasa NP, 5 º 13.011 N, 2 º 39.126 W, 13.ii. 2013 Smit 1 /0/0; tributary of Oguntwe, Ankasa NP, 5 º 16.563 N, 2 º 38.733 W, 78 m asl., 14.ii. 2013 Smit 0/ 1 /0; Ankasa Exploration Base stream, Ankasa NP, 5 º 16.413 N, 2 º 38.810 W, 81 m asl., 14.ii. 2013 Smit 1 / 1 /0; Ankasa Exploration Base trail stream, Ankasa NP, 5 º 16.415 N, 2 º 38.751 W, 80 m asl., 14.ii. 2013 Smit 1 / 1 /0; Plunge pool, Tsatsudo Falls, 7 º 07.390 N, 0º 23.365 E, 179 m asl., 22.ii. 2013 Smit 0/ 2 /0. General features: Dorsal shield oval (L/W ratio 1.1), with medial depression; muscle scars with little pronounced thickenings, located anterior and posterior to the postocularia; colour pattern consisting of an anterior blue patch (Figs. 40 K–L); gnathosomal bay Y-shaped, noticeably narrowing in posterior half; tips of Cx-I ending posterior to frontal margin; medial margin of Cx-IV reduced to a median angle; Cx-III and -IV with a series of longitudinal striae (four or five pairs on Cx-IV). Palp (Fig. 34 D): P- 1 with a dorsal seta; P- 2 with straight ventral and convexly bowed dorsal margin; P- 3 proximally thicker than distally, ventral margin concave; P- 4 slender, equally narrowing from the base to tip. Legs: I-L (Fig. 34 E) with I-L- 6 L/H ratio 2.0– 2.3, ventral margin strongly protruding; IV-L: Fig. 34 F. Remarks: The dorsal colour pattern of D. unimaculata resembles that of D. multidentata K. Viets, 1911, but in the latter the patch is violet in colour. Furthermore, the idiosoma of D. multidentata is much smaller and proportionally narrower and the palp segments are proportionally much shorter (Cook 1966).

Material examined: Type series: FMC, Liberia; holotype female, Congo Town area, water filled ditch, 30.vii. 1958 Cook (Coll. 105); paratype male, same data as holotype. General features: Idiosoma tapering posteriorly, obovoid in shape (L/W ratio 1.1–1.2), dorsal shield without medial depression; muscle scars with weakly pronounced thickenings, located anterior and posterior to the postocularia; colour pattern unknown; gnathosomal bay Y-shaped, narrowing in posterior half; tips of Cx-I ending posterior to frontal margin; medial margin of Cx-IV not reduced to a median angle; Cx-III and -IV with a few longitudinal striae (two or three pairs on Cx-IV) Palp (Fig. 31 D): P- 1 without a dorsal seta; P- 2 with slightly concave ventral and convexly bowed dorsal margin; P- 3 ventral margin slightly concave; P- 4 equally narrowing from the base to distal edge.

Djeboa bomiensis Cook 1966
Djeboa bomiensis (Cook, 1966) (Figs. 10 A–F) Mideopsis (Djeboa) bomiensis Cook 1966: 239. Material examined: Type series: FMC, Liberia; holotype female, Suehn road, approximately four miles north of Bomi Hills Road, 30.xi. 1957 Cook (Coll. 84); paratypes: same site and date as holotype 3 / 3 /0; Coll. 36, 1/0/0; Coll. 41, 1/0/0; Coll. 76, 0/ 1 /0; Coll. 83, 3/ 1 /0; Coll. 88, 1/ 4 /0; Coll. 89, 0/ 2 /0; Coll. 91, 0/ 1 /0; Coll. 93,3/ 2 /0; Coll. 94, 2/ 3 /0; Coll. 95, 1/ 2 /0; Coll. 96, 1/ 2 /0 (see Cook 1966 for more details). General features: Dorsal shield oval (L/W ratio 1.1–1.2), with medial depression (Fig. 10 A); muscle scars with slightly pronounced thickenings, located anterior and posterior to the postocularia; dorsal shield blue in colour except periphery; gnathosomal bay of a modified Y-shape, noticeably narrowing in posterior half; tips of Cx-I ending posterior to frontal margin; medial margin of Cx-IV reduced to a median angle; Cx-III and -IV with a few longitudinal striae (two pairs on Cx-IV). Palp (Fig. 10 D): P- 1 without a dorsal seta; P- 2 with straight ventral and convexly bowed dorsal margin; P- 3 maximum height proximally, ventral margin concave; P- 4 equally narrowing from the base to tip. Legs: I-L (Fig. 10 E) with I-L- 6 L/H ratio 2.6; IV-L: Fig. 10 F. Discussion: In shape and setation of palp (with P- 1 lacking seta), Djeboa bomiensis is similar to D. rotundata K. Viets, 1914. The latter differs most noticeably in the rounded shape of the idiosoma, and also in a more slender P- 3 and P- 4 (Cook 1966). A re-examination of type material shows that the statement of Cook (1966) that swimming hairs are absent in D. bomiensis (followed later in the key of K.O.Viets 1970) is erroneous. Distribution: Liberia, widely distributed and numerous.Published as part of Pešić, Vladimir, Cook, David, Gerecke, Reinhard & Smit, Harry, 2013, The water mite family Mideopsidae (Acari: Hydrachnidia): a contribution to the diversity in the Afrotropical region and taxonomic changes above species level, pp. 1-75 in Zootaxa 3720 (1) on page 22, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3720.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/28502
