HOVSMAN LONDINII APVD GRANT RICHARDS MDOCCCXX 114^':<^37 Although this Fourth book preaents more difficultiea of detail than any other of the five, and has exacted from me the writing of a very long commentary, it has not the essential difficulty, astrological or astronomical, of books ii and iii ; and the only parts of it which need to be explained or illustrated in a preface are the verses 294-386, 408-501, and 744-817. In II 693-737 we were apprised that each of the 12 Zyi-6oooni ooz? . .,..,,. ,» . ,,,11 signs is divided mto 12 portions called dodecatemories, and that the 12 dodecatemories in each sign are allotted to the 12 signs in order. But this device is not confusing enough to mantle the frauds of astrology; and the 12 signs, thus parcelled and mixed by twelfths, are now to be parcelled and mixed anew by thirds. Manilius calls this department of his art decanica. Every sign is divided into three parts consisting of 10 degrees each, 30 that the zodiac, with its 360 degrees, contains 36 of them. These 36 parts, beginning with the P' of Aries, are allotted to the dominion of the 12 signs, beginning with Aries himself, in regular succession and triple recurrence, so that each sign dominates three of them, and those three fall at the three angles of an equilateral triangle inscribed in the circle. VI M. MANILII The'signs are divided and distributed thus Aries Aries Aries Taurus Leo Taurus Gemini Gemini Cancer 1 Cancer Taurus Leo Virgo 2 Leo l3 Virgo Virgo '1 Libra 1 Libra Gemini 2 Scorpius Libra 2 Scorpius .3 Sagittarius .3 Sagittarius 1 Capricorn 1 Capricorn Cancer 2 Aquarius Scorpius 2 Aquarius 3 Pisces .3 Pisces Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius Scorpius .3 Sagittarius '1 Capricorn Pisces 2 Aquarius 3 Pisces. Through confusion and negligence Manilius has disturbed the arrangement by allotting the T* and 2°'* parts of Pisces to Aries and Taurus instead of Capricorn and Aquarius. This division of the 12 signs into 36 parts measuring 10 degrees each is found in other astrologers, and by some of them the thirds are called SiKavol. But more commonly they use the term ScKavucr to signify, not 10 degrees of the zodiac, but a power presiding over them. This power is nowhere except in Manilius a zodiacal sign. It is natural to connect the triple division of a sign by decads with the similar though less accurate division of the month which is eflfected by the Egyptian week of ten days. A special name is assigned to each SeKavocr by Hephaestio l 1, and these names are easily recognised as Egyptian and as identical in many cases with the names assigned in Egyptian lists (Brugsch Geogr. Inschr. Altaegypt. Denkm. pp. 131-84, Daressy Annales du Serv. des ASTRONOMICON IV vii Antiqu. de 1'^gypte i pp. 79-90) to certain celestial beings, which however are not called by any Egyptian term akin to BtKavol, are not attached to zodiacal but rather to extra-zodiacal constella- tions, and are sometimes more or fewer than 36. Of their emblems figured by Lepsius Chronol. d. Aegypt. i pp. 66 sq. none presents or resembles a complete human form, but each consists of an assemblage of signs, among which a bird or a human head or limb is often to be recognised. The names of StKavoi in the Hermes of Pitra's analect. sacr. et class. v ii pp. 285-90 (codd. Mosqu. 415 et Vind. med. Gr. 23) are further removed than Hephaestio's from the Egyptian ; those in Firmicus math. iv 22 8-19 further still ; those in C.C. A.G. vi pp. 73-8 (codd. Vind. phil. Gr. 108 et Par. Gr. 2419) have no resemblance to them, and are said in the Paris MS to be given Kara XaXSatwv <f)(j}vda: To each name is attached in C.C.A.G. VI an emblem for inscription on an amulet of some special stone : these emblems are mostly arrangements of lines, with hooks at the ends, within circles. Pitra's Hermes gives a description of each StKavoa; and the forms described are for the most part human, often with the heads of lower animals. In C.C.A.G. ii pp. 153-7 (codd. Ven. Marc. 334 et Par. Gr. 2420) there is a chapter from the astrologer Achmes (saec. x) with a different set of descriptions derived from a tradition which has left its mark elsewhere. Of the P' Sexavoo- of Aries we read here «v t>/ X^V' avToi d^tvrj, i)v Kal OkXu diropplxpai, and again in Westermann's paradoxogr. pp. 147-8 (Psellus, quoting Teucer Baby- lonius) «iVi yap ev iKadTi^ Ttjv ^wStwv Tpeicr KaT£i,X.(yixivoL 8eKavol TTOLKLXop.Opf^Ot, 6 /ifV KaTC;i(COV TrkXiKVV, O S' €l<r dWo T6 l(T)(rjlXaTL(T- ixkvoa- dK6vLa-/j.a. This figure with the axe appears as the 1'* ScKavocr of Aries in Bianchini's so-called planisphere, perhaps of the 2'"' cen- tury after Christ (S. Reinach R6pertoire de la statuaire i p. 118, Boll sphaer. tafel v). Manilius, as I have said, is the only author who subjects these divisions of 10° to the dominion of signs of the zodiac. Astrologers for the most part allot them to the seven planets : Firm. ii 4 2 sq., Paul. Alex. fol. C 2-3, Porph. isag. pp. 199 sq., C.C.A.G. ii pp. 153-7, VI pp. 73-8, cod. Par. Gr. 2420 fol. 108 (Boll sphaer. p. 11). The planets succeed and recur in the usual descending sequence, Saturn Jupiter Mars Sun Venus Mercury Moon (though in C.C.A.G. VI pp. 75-8 the scribe has made some blunders) ; but the series begins with Mars in the P* decan of Aries, and consequently (since 36 is 1 more than 7x5) it also ends with Mars in the S"^** decan of Pisces, so that Mars holds two consecutive decans, and one viii M.

    LECTURE NOTE ON FIS 503 FIS 503 – PRODUCTION OF OTHER MARINE PRODUCTS (2 UNITS) This Course is taught by three (3) lecturers - Dr. I.T. Omoniyi, Dr. F.I. Adeosun and Dr. A.A. Idowu The Course synopsis is further outlined on lecture basis as follows: Lectures 1 – 4: Ecology, life histories of crustaceans and aquatic molluscs Lecture 5 – 8: Culture of Shrimps, Oysters, crayfish, crabs, periwinkles and frogs Lecture 9: Culture of edible sea weeds Lecture 10 – 11: Sea and Shore farming of some products Lecture 12: Processing and preservation of marine products. ECOLOGY AND LIFE HISTORIES OF CRUSTACEANS At elementary level, crustaceans are a class of primarily aquatic arthropods. The name crustacean is derived from the Latin words ‘crusta’ meaning hard shell. The class is large (about 26,000 known species) and includes a variety of aquatic animals such as shrimps, crabs, lobsters, barnacles, water fleas etc. Some crustaceans occur in the seas and freshwaters, some are semi-terrestrial. They are mostly free-living, but few are parasitic. The common names shrimps and prawns are used interchangeably but it has now been resolved at FAO Convention to call marine and brackish water forms shrimps and freshwater forms prawns. Technically, the prawns have pleura of 2nd abdominal segment overlapping with 1st and 3rd segments ventrally. But in shrimps, the somite of 2nd abdominal segment overlaps the 3rd somite. Before commercial importance of crustaceans could be appreciated, the characteristics and the relationships need be mentioned. The main diagnostic features of the Class are: The occurrence of 2 pairs of pre-oral appendages which are antenniform and sensory in functions i.e.

  • Feeding Design in Free-Living Mesostigmatid Chelicerae
    Experimental and Applied Acarology (2021) 84:1–119 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10493-021-00612-8 REVIEW PAPER Feeding design in free‑living mesostigmatid chelicerae (Acari: Anactinotrichida) Clive E. Bowman1 Received: 4 April 2020 / Accepted: 25 March 2021 / Published online: 30 April 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract A model based upon mechanics is used in a re-analysis of historical acarine morphologi- cal work augmented by an extra seven zoophagous mesostigmatid species. This review shows that predatory mesostigmatids do have cheliceral designs with clear rational pur- poses. Almost invariably within an overall body size class, the switch in predatory style from a worm-like prey feeding (‘crushing/mashing’ kill) functional group to a micro- arthropod feeding (‘active prey cutting/slicing/slashing’ kill) functional group is matched by: an increased cheliceral reach, a bigger chelal gape, a larger morphologically estimated chelal crunch force, and a drop in the adductive lever arm velocity ratio of the chela. Small size matters. Several uropodines (Eviphis ostrinus, the omnivore Trachytes aegrota, Urodi- aspis tecta and, Uropoda orbicularis) have more elongate chelicerae (greater reach) than their chelal gape would suggest, even allowing for allometry across mesostigmatids. They may be: plesiosaur-like high-speed strikers of prey, scavenging carrion feeders (like long- necked vultures), probing/burrowing crevice feeders of cryptic nematodes, or small mor- sel/fragmentary food feeders. Some uropodoids have chelicerae and chelae which probably work like a construction-site mechanical excavator-digger with its small bucket. Possible hoeing/bulldozing, spore-cracking and tiny sabre-tooth cat-like striking actions are dis- cussed for others.

First, I am in great debt to my advisor, Dr. Michi Tobler. Without your never ending help and desire to push me to my limits, these projects would not have been possible. Your attitude towards me and my research allowed me to really dive right in without feeling pressured and stressed. The freedom and trust you gave me to run my own research allowed me to grow as an individual more than I ever would have thought. I could not have asked for a better advisor and friend. Next, I thank my committee members: Dr. Puni Jeyasingh, Dr. Andrew Dzialowski, Dr. Mona Papeş, and Dr. Shannon Brewer, for all of your faith and confidence in my research and myself. Your jokes, even at my expense, and overall general attitudes really help me keep a level head and push through the rough times.

Hendrickx Estación Mazatlán, Instituto de Ciencias del Mar y Limnología, UNAM. Apdo. Postal 811,Maza tlán, Sinaloa 82000, México. (Rec. 8-IU-1989. Acep. 27-IV-1989) Abstract: Sampling for epifaunal invertebrates on the lower continental platform and the upper slope in the central Gulf of California, México, has yielded specimens of 59 species of stomatopod and decapod crustaceans, including an undescribed Pandalidae, Plesionika carinirostris, new species. The samples, obtained between 65 and 380 m with otter-trawl and benthic dredge, also yielded specimens of Schmittius politus, a species of stomatopod scarcely reported for the Gulf of California, and of Iridopagurus occidentalis and Nanocassiope polita, two species of rarely collected decapods . Two species of brachyuran are reported for the first time in the Gulf of California (Clythrocerus decorus and C. laminatus) and two others, recently described for the area (Chacellus pacificus and Ethusa steyaerti), were again captured. Key words: Stomatopoda, Decapoda, Plesionika, Schmittius, Iridopagurus, Nanocassiope, Clythrocerus, Chacellus, Gulf of California, México, crustaceans. Although commercial trawling on the conti­ TlJe acquisition in 1980 by the Universidad nental platform of the Gulf of California, Méxi­ Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) of a co, has become effective in the early 40's with 50 m research vessel, "El Puma" based on the a peak production in the 60's, the amount of Pacific coast of México, promoted the organiza­ scientific information that has derived from this tion of large-scale surveys of the deep-water activity is rather reduced.
