    Nonlinear scattering theory for a class of wave equations in Hs

    AbstractFor the semi-linear (higher order) wave equation and the nonlinear (higher order) Schrödinger equation, we show that the scattering operators map a band in Hs into Hs if the nonlinearities have (sub-)critical powers in Hs. The smoothness of the scattering operators and the uniform boundedness of strong solutions for the defocusing NLS equation are also shown provided that the nonlinearities have subcritical growth in H1. Moreover, the spatial decaying behavior of solutions in energy space for the defocusing NLS equation are obtained

    Promalactis falciprocessa Wang, sp. nov. (Figs. 1, 11, 20) Type material. CHINA, Hainan Island: Holotype Ƌ, Jianfengling Nature Reserves (18.44 °N, 108.52 °E), 770m, 30.V. 2015, coll.

Qingyun Wang, Suran Li and Mengting Chen, genitalia slide No. HS 15183 ♀. Diagnosis. This new species is similar in appearance to P. lunularis Du, Li et Wang, 2011, P. rostriformis Du, Li et Wang, 2011 and P. saligna Du et Wang, 2012 by the forewing sharing one fascia and one costal spot. Promalactis falciprocessa sp. nov. differs from the other three species in the male genitalia by the costa having a large falcate distal process that projects beyond the apex of the sacculus; whereas in P. l u nu l a r i s, P. rostriformis and P. saligna, the figure-shaped or spiniform costal process does not project beyond the apex of the sacculus. Description. Adult (Fig. 1) with forewing expanse 9.0 mm. Head with frons shining gray, vertex shining white, occiput ferruginous. Labial palpus with second palpomere ochreous brown except black at apex; third palpomere white on basal 2 / 5, blackish brown on distal 3 / 5. Antenna with scape white; flagellum with ventral surface brown, dorsal surface white tinged with black on basal half, white ringed with black on distal half. Thorax and tegula ferruginous. Forewing deep ochreous brown, with grayish brown scales at apex; white fascia from costal 1 / 4 obliquely outward to dorsal 1 / 3, edged with black scales laterally; costa with a square white spot beyond 2 / 3, edged with black scales except along costa, extending across midwing posteriorly; cilia white basally and yellow distally around apex, tinged with black-tipped scales, brown mixed with black ventrally. Hindwing and cilia brown. Fore leg grayish brown with white markings dorsally; mid leg with femur yellow, tibia grayish brown ventrally, blackish brown dorsally, with a tuft of long white scales at apex, tarsi blackish brown with white strips dorsally; hind leg pale yellow ventrally, grayish brown tinged with black dorsally. Male genitalia (Fig. 11). Uncus with basal half broad, subrectangular, narrowed sharply at middle, distal half digitate. Gnathos small, triangular, shorter than lateral arms. Valva subparallel; costa about 1 / 4 length of sacculus, produced to a large free sickle-shaped distal process, extended beyond apex of sacculus, setose; sacculus narrow, nearly aequilate, distal 1 / 4 free, produced to a free process with apex slightly hooked; apex of valva deeply concave inward between costal and saccular processes. Saccus about two times length of uncus, subparallel from base to about 3 / 4, then slightly narrowed to rounded apex. Juxta with lateral lobes long and slender, uniform except narrowed from distal 1 / 6 to pointed apex, reaching beyond base of gnathos; basal rod slightly tapering distally, reaching anterior 2 / 5 of saccus. Phallus about 1.8 times of sacculus, straight and slender, with a long straight apical spine; cornutus spine-like, about 1 / 9 length of phallus, placed distally. Female genitalia (Fig. 20). Papillae anales rectangular, setose. Apophysis anterioris about half length of apophysis posterioris. Lamella postvaginalis deeply concave in U shape at middle on posterior margin, spinous along margin of concavity. Antrum broad funneled. Ductus bursae weakly sclerotized except membranous medially; distal 1 / 3 suddenly dilated, sclerotized, with stout spines. Corpus bursae round; two large elongate ovate signa placed medially, with two or more fine teeth posteriorly. Distribution. China (Hainan). Etymology. The species epithet is derived from the Latin falc- (sickle) and processus (process), referring to the falcate process of the costa of the valva.Published as part of Hu, Sha & Wang, Shuxia, 2016, Taxonomic study of the genus Promalactis Meyrick (Lepidoptera, Oecophoridae) from Hainan Island, China (II), pp. 35-48 in Zootaxa 4136 (3) on pages 35-36, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4137.1.2, http://zenodo.org/record/27192
