For this purpose existing tools for building and deploying semantic knowledge representations were evaluated. Figure 1 Ingesting records into Europeana (overall workflow) In Task 3.4 a survey template for vocabularies was established and a selection of current available and relevant vocabularies for metadata enrichment, specifically vocabularies for vernacular names, person names, locations, time etc. was carried out. The findings of this survey have been incorporated in chapter 3 of this document (relevant vocabularies for the EDM contextual classes). The survey template is depicted in Annex I of this document. In addition to the survey results the information provided by WP6 in C6.1.1 and C6.3.1 has been integrated into chapter 3. The selection of vocabularies was further based upon the following criteria: availability of documentation, provision of a test URL and open access (rights) and was driven by the EDM-requirements as described in chapter 2. A new component (EDM Management Subsystem) is under development and will be based on semantic technologies and standards like the XML Topic Map standard (XTM, ISO/IEC 13250). This component will be integrated into the workflow of the Natural History Aggregator. Chapter 4 depicts a first mapping of the EDM core classes to the ABCD(EFG) standard and identifies relevant fields for enrichment, chapter 5 provides an outlook on EDM data enrichment possibilities and the chapters 6 to 8 outline the envisaged technical implementation of vocabulary integration. AIT, 2012 C3.2.1 version 2a p. 1 2 INTRODUCTION TO THE EDM CLASSES The Europeana Data Model (short: EDM) 1 is a comprehensive metadata model that will be the favoured data standard metadata integration into the Europeana portal (http://www.europeana.eu) in future. The model introduces own elements and re-uses elements from various names spaces. Among those count: . The Resource Description Framework (RDF) and the RDF Schema (RDFS) namespaces (http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf-concepts/) . The OAI Object Reuse and Exchange (ORE) namespace (http://www.openarchives.org/ore) . The Simple Knowledge Organization System (SKOS) namespace (http://www.w3.org/TR/skos- reference/) . The Dublin Core namespaces for elements (http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/, abbreviated as DC), terms (http://purl.org/dc/terms/, abbreviated as DCTERMS) and types (http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/, abbreviated as DCMITYPE) The EDM is a theoretical data model that allows data to be presented in different ways according to the practices of the various domains who contribute data to Europeana. A process has been undertaken to translate the model from a specification into a practical implementation. This has necessitated a selection process. Initially the essential classes that could realistically be taken forward to a first implementation were selected. Following this, the properties from EDM that could apply to each of those classes were identified. The final stage was to select a sub-set of those properties that would be incorporated in the initial XML schema.2 Figure 2 The EDM Class hierarchy3 Figure 2: The classes introduced by EDM are shown in light blue rectangles. The classes in the white rectangles are re-used from other schemas; the schema is indicated before the colon. 1 EDM documentation. http://pro.europeana.eu/web/guest/edm-documentation 18 Jul. 2012. 2 Europeana Data Model Mapping Guidelines. http://pro.europeana.eu/web/guest/edm-documentation 18 Jul. 2012. 3 Europeana Data Model Mapping Guidelines. http://pro.europeana.eu/web/guest/edm-documentation 18 Jul. 2012.

He loved it so much that he started a group, complete with a small journal, that he called the American Gloxinia Society. The Society lived on, thrived, acquired more members, studied the Gloxinia and its relatives, gesneriads. After a while, the name of the society changed to the American Gloxinia and Gesneriad Society. The journal, THE GLOXINIAN, grew thicker and glossier. More study and research were conducted on the family, more members and chapters came in, and the name was changed again – this time to The Gesneriad Society. Nowadays, a boy who falls in love with the same plant would have to call it Sinningia speciosa. To be honest, the American Sinningia Speciosa Society does not have the same ring. So in order to talk "Gloxinia," the boy would have to talk about Gloxinia perennis, still a gesneriad, but a totally different plant. Unless, of course, he went for the common name of the spec- tacular Sinningia and decided to found The American Florist Gloxinia Society.

Radiation of this group occurred in all biomes of tropical America and was accompanied by extensive phenotypic and ecological diversification. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses using DNA sequences from three plastid loci to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Gesnerioideae and to investigate its relationship with other lineages of Gesneriaceae and Lamiales. Our molecular data confirm the inclusion of the South Pacific Coronanthereae and the Old World (OW) monotypic genus Titanotrichum in Gesnerioideae and the sister-group relationship of this subfamily to the rest of the OW Gesneriaceae. Calceolariaceae and the NW genera Peltanthera and Sanango appeared successively sister to Gesneriaceae, whereas Cubitanthus, which has been previously assigned to Gesneriaceae, is shown to be related to Linderniaceae. Based on molecular dating and biogeographical reconstruction analyses, we suggest that ancestors of Gesneriaceae originated in South America during the Late Cretaceous.

Fish sampling was carried out in 2009 by gill nets and „krtol“, traditional hunting tool in the area of Mostarsko Blato (Neretva River Basin, Bosnia and Herzegovina). In order to analyze age structure of the population, 70 units of various age categories were taken. Length range of all analyzed units was from 2,7 to 11,5 cm. By reading otoliths, a total of four age classes was established: 0+, 1+, 2+ and 3+. The largest part of the sample consisted of 2- year-old units (40%). There were 28,6% of 1-year-old units, 27,1% of 3-year-old units, and 4,3% of 4-year- old units. The mean estimated total length (TL) of 1-year-old P. pseudalepidotus was 4 cm; 2-year-old, 6,7 cm; 3-year-old, 9,15 cm; 4-year-old, 11,05 cm.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. We describe a rearing protocol that allowed us to raise the threatened butterfly, Argynnis diana (Nymphalidae), while bypassing the first instar overwintering diapause. We compared the survival of offspring reared under this protocol from field-collected A. diana females from North Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee. Larvae were reared in the lab on three phylogenetically distinct species of Southern Appalachian violets (Viola sororia, V. pubescens,andV. pedata). We assessed larval survival in A. diana to the last instar, pupation, and adulthood. Males reared in captivity emerged significantly earlier than females. An ANOVA revealed no evidence of host plant preference by A. diana toward three native violet species. We suggest that restoration of A. diana habitat which promotes a wide array of larval and adult host plants, is urgently needed to conserve this imperiled species into the future. 1.

(SUBGENUS SPEYERIA) (NYMPHALIDAE) FROM WASHINGTON DAVID G. JAMES Department of Entomology, Washington State University, Irrigated Agriculture Research and Extension Center, 24105 North Bunn Road, Prosser, Washington 99350; email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Comparative illustrations and notes on morphology and biology are provided on the immature stages of five Arg- ynnis spp. (A. cybele leto, A. coronis simaetha, A. zerene picta, A. egleis mcdunnoughi, A. hydaspe rhodope) found in the Pacific Northwest. High quality images allowed separation of the five species in most of their immature stages. Sixth instars of all species possessed a fleshy, eversible osmeterium-like gland located ventrally between the head and first thoracic segment. Dormant first in- star larvae of all species exposed to summer-like conditions (25 ± 0.5º C and continuous illumination), 2.0–2.5 months after hatch- ing, did not feed and died within 6–9 days, indicating the larvae were in diapause. Overwintering of first instars for ~ 80 days in dark- ness at 5 ± 0.5º C, 75 ± 5% r.h. resulted in minimal mortality. Subsequent exposure to summer-like conditions (25 ± 0.5º C and continuous illumination) resulted in breaking of dormancy and commencement of feeding in all species within 2–5 days. Durations of individual instars and complete post-larval feeding development durations were similar for A. coronis, A. zerene, A. egleis and A.
