Snizek (GenPr MWM: 25.285; MWM); paratypes: 3 ♂, same data (MWM); 1 ♂, Kenya, E of Garsen, W of Witu, 18.¯ 20.xii.2009, leg. Snizek (MWM); 1 ♀, Kenya, NW of Garsen, 14.¯ 17.xii.2009, leg. Snizek (GenPr MWM: 30.891; MWM); 1 ♂, Ethiopia, Southern Province, ca. 220 km SW Addis Abeba, 3 km NW Bonga, 1900 m, 30.x.2010, leg. De Freina (MWM). Description. Length of forewing of holotype 17 mm (male paratypes 15¯ 18 mm). Antenna bipectinate in proximal half, filiform in distal half. Thorax and abdomen covered with white scales. Tegula and patagia white. Forewing white, with black pattern of transverse undulated strokes. Thin undulated lines on outer edge, thicker black strokes in cubital area, black strokes thickened at base of discal cell forming spot with irregular edges. In medial part wing white without pattern. Fringe white. Hind wing white without pattern. Length of female fore wing 19 mm; antenna simple; wing pattern identical to that of male. Male genitalia. Uncus elongate, long, apex uncinate, tapered; gnathos arms short, ribbon-like, narrowing to apices, not fused; valva wide, leaf-like, costal and abdominal edges practically parallel; juxta tiny, saddle-like, with long ribbon-like lateral processes, gradually narrowing apically; saccus large, semicircular; phallus large, in length equal to valva, with longitudinal ribs on lateral surface, vesica with long large sclerite in lateral surface. Female genitalia. Ovipositor long, anterior apophyses half the length of posterior apophyses, ostium deep, cuplike; ductus wide, almost equal to bursa), short; thin channel with bull on top extends from distal part of ductus; bursa membranous, long, of equal width throughout length; small stellated signum in apical part of bursa; ductus seminalis incepted in apical part of bursa. Diagnosis. The species is most similar to A. liturata (Aurivillius, 1879) (Figs. 8 ¯9) (type locality Damara [Namibia]), which is widespread in Namibia, Botswana and S. Africa (Gründberg 1910, Vari et al. 2002, Yakovlev 2011, Mey 2016). A. snizeki but differs from A. liturara by the following features: more refined pattern on the forewing, an expressed thickening of black strokes in the discal area of the forewing forming a spot, and by the absence of black spots on the hindwing edge and large folds on the lateral surface of the phallus. Distribution. Kenya. Etymology. The new species is named after Miroslav Snizek, a Czech specialist of Coleoptera, who collected the type series of this new species.Published as part of Yakovlev, Roman V. & Witt, Thomas J., 2017, Four new species of Azygophleps Hampson, 1892 (Lepidoptera, Cossidae, Zeuzerinae) from Africa, pp. 437-444 in Zootaxa 4303 (3) on page 438, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4303.3.9, http://zenodo.org/record/309464

Open access self-archiving: An author study
No full textThis, our second author international, cross-disciplinary study on open access had 1296 respondents. Its focus was on self-archiving. Almost half (49%) of the respondent population have self-archived at least one article during the last three years. Use of institutional repositories for this purpose has doubled and usage has increased by almost 60% for subject-based repositories. Self-archiving activity is greatest amongst those who publish the largest number of papers. There is still a substantial proportion of authors unaware of the possibility of providing open access to their work by self-archiving. Of the authors who have not yet self-archived any articles, 71% remain unaware of the option. With 49% of the author population having self-archived in some way, this means that 36% of the total author population (71% of the remaining 51%), has not yet been appraised of this way of providing open access. Authors have frequently expressed reluctance to self-archive because of the perceived time required and possible technical difficulties in carrying out this activity, yet findings here show that only 20% of authors found some degree of difficulty with the first act of depositing an article in a repository, and that this dropped to 9% for subsequent deposits. Another author worry is about infringing agreed copyright agreements with publishers, yet only 10% of authors currently know of the SHERPA/RoMEO list of publisher permissions policies with respect to self-archiving, where clear guidance as to what a publisher permits is provided. Where it is not known if permission is required, however, authors are not seeking it and are self-archiving without it. Communicating their results to peers remains the primary reason for scholars publishing their work; in other words,
researchers publish to have an impact on their field. The vast majority of authors (81%) would willingly comply with a mandate from their employer or research funder to deposit copies of their articles in an institutional or subject-based repository. A further 13% would comply reluctantly; 5% would not comply with such a mandate

A 15-nW per Sensor Interference-Immune Readout IC for Capacitive Touch Sensors
No full textThis paper presents a readout IC that uses an asynchronous capacitance-to-digital-converter (CDC) to digitize the capacitance of a touch sensor. A power-efficient tracking algorithm ensures that the CDC consumes negligible power consumption in the absence of touch events. To facilitate its use in wake-on-touch applications, the CDC can be periodically triggered by a co-integrated ultra-low-power relaxation oscillator. At a 38-Hz scan rate, the readout IC consumes 15 nW per touch sensor, which is the lowest reported to date.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Electronic InstrumentationMicroelectronic
