Continuity and change in a partitioned civil society : Whyte revisited
No full textRevised version of a paper presented at the final conference of the Mapping frontiers, plotting pathways: routes to North-South cooperation in a divided island programme, City Hotel, Armagh, 19-20 January 2006.This paper revisits John Whyte’s seminal 1983 article “The permeability of the United Kingdom-Irish border: a preliminary reconnaissance” (Whyte, 1983). The objective
is to explore hypotheses Whyte put forward as to why some private organisations are all-Ireland while others follow the international boundary. He suggested that two variables are crucial in explaining this: the nature of the organisation’s activities and the date of its foundation. He also identified a lack of readily available information on foundation dates. To overcome this lacuna we carried out a survey of private organisations to ascertain their foundation date, area of activity and what if any territorial reconfiguring they have undergone. Using the same functional categories as Whyte our research is generally supportive of his initial findings. Civil society can act as a counter-force to the boundary reinforcing dynamics of separate state developments.Not applicableti ke se - 100706 RB

MALE HOLOTYPE (QM-S96332) from Australia, south-east Queensland, Venman Bushland National Park, 27°37’S, 153°12’E, M. Doe, 10 Nov. 2015. ALLOTYPE: 1 female (QM-S96333), same data as previous, M. Duncan. PARATYPE: 1female (QM-S96334), same data as previous; 1 male (QM-S35068), south-east Queensland, Rochdale State Forest, 27°37’S, 153°09’E, V. Davies, R. Raven, 6 Sep. 1979. Remarks. Maratus ottoi was known from black and white drawings in a publication by Davies & Żabka (1989: 237, fig. 40), based on a male, collected by Val Davies and Robert Raven in 1979 in the Rochedale State Forest (QM-S35068). At that time it was not named. In 2015 live individuals were found by Madeline Girard, Michael Doe and Michael Duncan in the Venman Bushland National Park (QM-S96333, S96334). Dance: You tube Peacock Spider 15 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=my5AqKpC-Rs). Etymology. The specific name is a patronym in honour of Dr Jürgen Otto, one of Australia’s most accomplished Maratus experts. Diagnosis. M. ottoi is closely related to M. eliasi sharing a nearly identical prosomal colour pattern (Figs 12 A, 13A) and a similar embolic disc (Figs 11 A, B). M. ottoi can be separated from M. eliasi by having a different opisthosomal colour pattern with no red posterior markings but an octopus-like pattern anteriorly (this species had the nickname “Mr Octopus”) (Fig. 13 A) with tooth like denticules at the retrocentral part of the embolus (Fig. 11 B) and a slightly rounded embolic tip (Fig. 11 E).
