F. Davie Queensland Museum, PO Box 3300, South Brisbane, Queensland, Australia Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. – An annotated checklist of the extant brachyuran crabs of the world is presented for the first time. Over 10,500 names are treated including 6,793 valid species and subspecies (with 1,907 primary synonyms), 1,271 genera and subgenera (with 393 primary synonyms), 93 families and 38 superfamilies. Nomenclatural and taxonomic problems are reviewed in detail, and many resolved. Detailed notes and references are provided where necessary. The constitution of a large number of families and superfamilies is discussed in detail, with the positions of some taxa rearranged in an attempt to form a stable base for future taxonomic studies. This is the first time the nomenclature of any large group of decapod crustaceans has been examined in such detail.

The Genus Phlyctenodes Milne Edwards, 1862 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Xanthidae) in the Eocene of Europe
350 RevistaBusulini Mexicana et al. de Ciencias Geológicas, v. 23, núm. 3, 2006, p. 350-360 The genus Phlyctenodes Milne Edwards, 1862 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Xanthidae) in the Eocene of Europe Alessandra Busulini1,*, Giuliano Tessier2, and Claudio Beschin3 1 c/o Museo di Storia Naturale, S. Croce 1730, I - 30125, Venezia, Italia. 2 via Barbarigo 10, I – 30126, Lido di Venezia, Italia. 3 Associazione Amici del Museo Zannato, Piazza Marconi 15, I - 36075, Montecchio Maggiore (Vicenza), Italia. * [email protected] ABSTRACT A systematic review of the crab genus Phlyctenodes Milne Edwards, 1862 is carried out. Based on carapace features, this taxon is placed in the subfamily Actaeinae, family Xanthidae MacLeay, 1838. Species attributed to this genus are known from Eocene reef environments in Europe. Preservation of crustacean remains in this kind of environment is very rare, and it could explain scarcity of specimens of this genus. For the fi rst time, pictures of types of this genus described during the XIX century and the fi rst decades of the XX century are presented. A study of recently collected specimens from the Eocene of Veneto (Italy) allows to clarify relationships between Phlyctenodes krenneri Lörenthey, 1898 and P. dalpiazi Fabiani, 1911. Presence of P. tuberculosus Milne Edwards, 1862 among the new material is documented. The other known species of this genus, P. hantkeni Lörenthey, 1898 is placed in Pseudophlyctenodes new genus on the basis of differences in morphological features. Key words: Crustacea, Decapoda, Phlyctenodes, systematic review, Eocene, Italy. RESUMEN Se presenta una revisión sistemática del género de cangrejo Phlyctenodes Milne Edwards, 1862. Con base en las características del caparazón, este taxon es ubicado en la subfamilia Actaeinae, familia Xanthidae MacLeay, 1838. -

Phylogenetics of the Brachyuran Crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda): the Status of Podotremata Based on Small Subunit Nuclear Ribosomal RNA

The status of Podotremata is one of the most controversial issues in brachyuran systematics. The podotreme crabs, best recognised by the possession of gonopores on the coxae of the pereopods, have variously been regarded as mono-, para- or polyphyletic, or even as non-brachyuran. For the first time, the phylogenetic positions of the podotreme crabs were studied by cladistic analysis of small subunit nuclear ribosomal RNA sequences. Eight of 10 podotreme families were represented along with representatives of 17 eubr- achyuran families. Under both maximum parsimony and Bayesian Inference, Podotremata was found to be significantly paraphyletic, comprising three major clades: Dromiacea, Raninoida, and Cyclodorippoida. The most ‘basal’ is Dromiacea, followed by Raninoida and Cylodorippoida. Notably, Cyclodorippoida was identified as the sister group of the Eubrachyura. -
Changing Settlements in a Hungarian Forest in the Middle Ages1
PILIS: CHANGING SETTLEMENTS IN A HUNGARIAN FOREST IN THE MIDDLE AGES1 Péter Szabó Pilis is a still visible forest in the heart of historical Hungary, covering an area of approximately fifty-five thousand hectares. In the Middle Ages, it was surrounded by the most significant lay and ecclesiastical centres of the Hungarian Kingdom: Esztergom, where one of the archbishops of Hungary is based; Buda, the most important royal centre from the thirteenth century on; and Visegrád, a royal castle of primary importance. Including a fourth town (Fehérvár) at a relatively small distance, the territory was called medium regni in the Middle Ages. Although the history of the four towns has been studied often and from many points of view,2 not much has been said about the territory that lies among them: the Pilis forest. The region comprises two separate mountains, one is called Pilis, the other one Visegrádi mountain. Nevertheless, the traditional usage is to refer to the whole area as Pilis. To the north and east, its boundary is the Danube, whereas to the southwest the border-line is the valley of Pilisvörösvár, enclosing a triangularly shaped territory, with the three castles on the edges. Before one attempts to examine the settlement structure of Pilis, some preliminary remarks on the history of the area are inevitable. The most important fact is that Pilis was a royal forest all through the Middle Ages, which means that it was under deliberate protection and control of the royal family, and also served as a most favoured hunting preserve. The second significant element in the history of the region was the strong presence of two monastic orders: the Cistercians and the Paulines, with one and three monasteries, respectively. -
Land Reform and the Hungarian Peasantry C. 1700-1848
Land Reform and the Hungarian Peasantry c. 1700-1848 Robert William Benjamin Gray UCL Thesis submitted for a PhD in History, 2009 1 I, Robert William Benjamin Gray, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 25th September 2009 2 Abstract This thesis examines the nature of lord-peasant relations in the final stages of Hungarian seigneurialism, dating roughly from 1700 to the emancipation of the peasantry in 1848. It investigates how the terms of the peasants’ relations with their lords, especially their obligations and the rights to the land they farmed, were established, both through written law and by customary practice. It also examines how the reforms of this period sought to redefine lord-peasant relations and rights to landed property. Under Maria Theresa land reform had been a means to protect the rural status quo and the livelihood of the peasantry: by the end of the 1840s it had become an integral part of a liberal reform movement aiming at the complete overhaul of Hungary’s ‘feudal’ social and economic system. In this period the status of the peasantry underpinned all attempts at reform. All reforms were claimed to be in the best interests of the peasantry, yet none stemmed from the peasants themselves. Conversely, the peasantry had means to voice their grievances through petitions and recourse to the courts, and took the opportunity provided by the reforms to reassert their rights and renegotiate the terms of their relations to their landlords. -

A zátonyokon élt tízlábú rákok története tehát nehezen követhető az adatok tér- és időbeli hiányossága miatt. A kainozoikumból viszonylag több adat van, mint a mezozoikumból, ezért a paleocéntől a miocén végéig részletesebben tárgyaljuk a faunában észlelt változásokat. Az adatok zöme Európából származik. A fosszilizálódás és a gyűjtés torzító hatása elsősorban a nagy méretű fajok megmaradásának, illetve megtalálásának kedvez. Zátonykörnyezetben a fosszilizálódás viszonylag kevéssé szelektál, viszont a gyűjtési módszer, ha felületes (ami, különösen régebben, általános volt), nagyon erősen kedvezhet a nagyobb példányok és fajok megtalálásának. Ezért gazdag, kis fajokat is tartalmazó faunákat általában az egyetemi városok, kutatóközpontok közelében hamarabb várhatunk, -

Statement of Significance The Medieval Royal Seat and Forest at Visegrád is a unique complex of a medieval royal seat: castles, palace, garden, Franciscan friary and a Royal Forest, all composing elements of this outstanding cultural landscape, which was formed from the eleventh to the fifteenth centuries. The site is one of the last surviving examples of a once typical combination of a royal seat and hunting ground. Visegrád, some monuments of which are the first products of Renaissance outside Italy, is also a symbol of medieval co-operation among the kingdoms of Central Europe, providing a constant source of inspiration for the repeatedly interrupted modernisation of the region. 1.2. Role of the Proposed World Heritage Status for the Site The area of the proposed World Heritage site is under multiple protection.
