    <i>Hirsutophallus</i> Yamaguchi, Lamas & Evenhuis gen. nov. <p> <b>Type species:</b> <i>Hirsutophallus andinus</i> Yamaguchi, Lamas & Evenhuis <b>sp. nov.</b> (here designated).</p> <p> <b>Diagnosis.</b> The new genus <i>Hirsutophallus</i> can be distinguished from other Poecilognathini by the presence of large and short lower lobes on the epiphallus, very different from the long and slender lower lobes of other genera, presence of striking large and curved lateral lobes on the epiphallus, with long dorsal macrosetae, not found in any other genus, and presence of long dorsal macrosetae on the penial guide of the distiphallus, which is absent in the other genera. The gonocoxite with a medial process that is large basally and acute on apex in lateral view, with apical and ventral short spines together with the presence of ventral spines on posterior process and furca V-shaped with very long and curved apical arms, easily segregates <i>Hirsutophallus</i> from all members of Phthiriinae.</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> The generic epithet derives from Latin <i>hirsutus</i>, meaning hairy or bristly, and <i>phallus</i>, in reference to the male reproductive component.</p>Published as part of <i>Yamaguchi, Carolina, Lamas, Carlos José E. & Evenhuis, Neal L., 2017, A new Neotropical genus of bee flies (Diptera, Bombyliidae, Phthiriinae), pp. 521-534 in Zootaxa 4363 (4)</i> on page 524, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4363.4.4, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/1114949">http://zenodo.org/record/1114949</a&gt

    Yamaguchi Facial Expression-Making Task in Alzheimer’s Disease: A Novel and Enjoyable Make-a-Face Game

    Background: To assess the ability to make emotional facial expressions, we newly developed the Yamaguchi facial expression-making task (Y-FEMT). Method: We recruited 20 normal controls and 61 outpatients: 10 with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), 34 with mild Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and 17 with moderate AD. In the Y-FEMT, smile and anger expressions were made by arranging face parts. We examined the relationship between each Y-FEMT score and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score or overlapping figure identification test (Fig-test). Results: The Total score (0–20) was nearly achieved in controls (18.9 ± 1.4) and declined with AD progression (aMCI 17.2 ± 2.4, mild AD 15.7 ± 2.6, moderate AD 12.3 ± 2.7). The Anger score (0–10) was significantly lower than the Smile score (0–10) in mild and moderate AD (p = 0.007 and p = 0.006, respectively). The Structure score (0–6 each) correlated well with both the MMSE score (r = 0.44, p Conclusion: The Y-FEMT pleasantly assessed the ability to make emotional facial expressions without special equipment. Furthermore, the Y-FEMT may provide helpful clues for caregivers to achieve good communication with AD patients for better care
