  • The Pennsylvania State University Schreyer Honors College Department of Anthropology the Dimensionality of the Mating Environmen
    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF ANTHROPOLOGY THE DIMENSIONALITY OF THE MATING ENVIRONMENT PREDICTS MALE COMBAT AND SEXUAL COERCION IN TURTLES LEELA MCKINNON FALL 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Anthropology with honors in Anthropology Reviewed and approved* by the following: David A. Puts Associate Professor of Anthropology Thesis Supervisor Timothy M. Ryan Assistant Professor of Anthropology, Geosciences, and Information Sciences and Technology Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT Predicting which mechanisms of sexual selection will be in effect in a given species is a topic of ongoing research. It has previously been suggested that terrestrial species have a higher degree of male combat than aquatic species. The hypothesis tested in this thesis is that the dimensionality of the mating environment will influence the evolution of both male combat and sexual coercion. Specifically, male combat and sexual coercion should be more likely to evolve in two-dimensional mating environments, in which females are easier to monopolize and constrain, than in three-dimensional environments where males are easier to evade by both same- sex competitors and females. In a large sample of turtle species with a diversity of mating dimensionalities, we tested the hypothesis that dimensionality predicts the degree of male combat and sexual coercion that will occur in a given species. As predicted, we found that male combat, sexual coercion, large male size, and male weapons are more likely to occur in species in which males compete for mates two-dimensionally than in species in which males compete for mates three-dimensionally.

Linsley Gressitt Of the Lingnan Natural History Survey and Museum Lingnan University, Canton, China EIGHT PLATES The present report is in the nature of a classification of the longicorn, or long-horned, beetles hitherto collected on Hainan Island, as far as available to the writer. A large part of the material on which the work has been based is included in the collections of the Lingnan Natural History Museum of Lingnan University, Canton, made on various expeditions, principally by F. K. To in 1932 and 1935, by Prof. W. E. Hoffmann, Mr. 0. K. Lau, and Dr. F. A. McClure in 1932, and by the Fifth Hainan Island Expedition of the University in 1929, as well as on col- lections made by myself on my trip (34) to the island during the summer of 1935. The remainder of the material studied includes, among others, part of the collection made by Mr. J. Whitehead in 1899, and the specimens collected by Commander G. Ros in the spring of 1936. A list of localities is given at the end, in addition to the map, in order to facilitate the identification of place names used. I am deeply grateful to Professor W. E. Hoffmann, director of the Lingnan Natural History Survey and Museum of Lingnan University, for enabling me to make this study. To Dr. K. G.

ADLBAUER Abstract : 66 species of Cerambycidae are recorded from Kyambura Game Reserve, Western Uganda. The genus Tibestia PEYERIMHOFF 1936, gen. prop, with the species T. dallonii PEYERIMHOFF 1936, spec. prop, are replaced as genus and species. Derolus bifarius DUFFY 1953 is declared as subspecies of D. incultus (GERSTÄCKER 1855), stat. nov., Ceroplesis militaris irregularis HAROLD 1878, stat. nov. is raised to subspecies rank. Hypoeschrus abyssinicus v. gyllenhali LEPESME & BREUNING 1955, syn. nov., Chariesthes (Pseudohapheniastus) ugandicola BREUNING 1967, syn nov. and Zographus ugandicola BREUNING 1970, syn. nov. are new synonyms. It is shown, that the remarkable white coloured 7. segment of the antenna from Anauxesis rufa BREUNING 1948 is obviously a secundary sex characteristic. Nyoma kyamburensis spec, nova and Exocentrus (Ispaterus) pogonocheroides spec, nova are described as new species. The biology of the species Chariesthes {Pseudohapheniastus) obscura GAHAN 1890 and Zographus nitidus ssp. typ. (AURTVILUUS 1914) is investigated for the first time. Altogether 36 species (= 54,5 %) are reported from Uganda for the first time. Key words: Coleoptera, Cerambycidae, new species, new synonyms, taxonomical changes, biology, new records, Uganda. Einleitung Ein Sammelaufenthalt in der Nsere Lodge im Kyambura Wildschutzgebiet vom 21.3. bis 7.4.1998 erbrachte den Nachweis von 70 Cerambycidenarten, die allerdings nicht alle zufriedenstellend determiniert werden konnten. Im Untersuchungsgebiet, das sich zoogeographisch in einem sehr interessanten Gebiet befindet (siehe Diskussion), wurden erwartungsgemäß viele ausgesprochen beachtens- werte Arten festgestellt, die entweder vom faunistischen Standpunkt sehr bemerkenswerte Nachweise darstellen oder taxonomische Neueinstufungen und Betrachtungen erlauben.

  • Viruses Infecting Reptiles
    Viruses 2011, 3, 2087-2126; doi:10.3390/v3112087 OPEN ACCESS viruses ISSN 1999-4915 www.mdpi.com/journal/viruses Review Viruses Infecting Reptiles Rachel E. Marschang Institut für Umwelt und Tierhygiene, University of Hohenheim, Garbenstr. 30, 70599 Stuttgart, Germany; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-711-459-22468; Fax: +49-711-459-22431 Received: 2 September 2011; in revised form: 19 October 2011 / Accepted: 21 October 2011 / Published: 1 November 2011 Abstract: A large number of viruses have been described in many different reptiles. These viruses include arboviruses that primarily infect mammals or birds as well as viruses that are specific for reptiles. Interest in arboviruses infecting reptiles has mainly focused on the role reptiles may play in the epidemiology of these viruses, especially over winter. Interest in reptile specific viruses has concentrated on both their importance for reptile medicine as well as virus taxonomy and evolution. The impact of many viral infections on reptile health is not known. Koch’s postulates have only been fulfilled for a limited number of reptilian viruses. As diagnostic testing becomes more sensitive, multiple infections with various viruses and other infectious agents are also being detected. In most cases the interactions between these different agents are not known. This review provides an update on viruses described in reptiles, the animal species in which they have been detected, and what is known about their taxonomic positions. Keywords: reptile; taxonomy; iridovirus; herpesvirus; adenovirus; paramyxovirus 1. Introduction Reptile virology is a relatively young field that has undergone rapid development over the past few decades.
