REDESCRIPTION OF HYALELLA AZTECA FROM ITS TYPE LOCALITY, VERA CRUZ, MEXICO (AMPHIPODA: HYALELLIDAE)

Abstract Hyalella azteca is a species complex distributed in North, Central, and northern South America. The identity of the species has always been a problem, especially because the original description by Saussure (1858) from a “cistern” in Vera Cruz, Mexico, is poor, and the figures are not clear. Since then, mention of the type material or specimens from the type locality has not been made by investigators using the name H. azteca. Ecological and genetic information available today suggests that there are several species in the complex commonly referred to as H. azteca. The subtle morphological differences among the populations have made the problem of defining these species very complicated. To aid in this process, we present here the morphological description of H. azteca based on the syntype series established by Saussure and deposited in the Museum d'Histoire Naturelle, Ville de Geneve, Switzerland.

Bibliography.Glossary. 223 pp. Price unknown. HEREare two recent Frenchbooks on Ukraine.AndreasKappeler'sworkis a translationof his excellent Kleine Geschichte derUkraine (Munich, I994) which is not yet available,alas, in English.The volume editedby Nivat et al., collects the papers from a conference coorganized in Poltava in I997 by Geneva's European Instituteand Kiev's Universityof the Mohyla Academy. To those not previously acquainted with his work, Kappeler's book is an excellent short introduction to Ukrainian history. Foremostamong his many strengths is his sensitivity to the complex problems of hybridity and multiethnicity that have always characterized the development of Ukrainian identity helping to explain why a sense of culturaldistinctionfor some can still exist with overlapping identities for others. In an area with so many overlapping historiographies,Kappeler also sensibly avoids pat judgements. He sidestepsthe argument as to whether Kievan Rus' was 'a Ukrainian state or a Russianstate',preferringto see it as an agglomerationofthe easternSlavs at a time when modern national identitieswere not fullyformed (pp. 44-45). He also treadscarefullyamongstthe many rivalinterpretationsof the Cossack and Hetmanate eras, unlike 'many Ukrainian historians for whom the Khmel'nyts'kyi6poque is a Golden Age' (p. 65). As would be expected from his other work, the analysis of the factors hindering the development of the national movement in the nineteenth century is one of the book's strongest points (and accounts for roughly one third of its contents). Kappeler gives strongest weight to external factors in deciding the fate of the various attempts to win independent national statehood in I9I7-20. 'A simple examination of the case of the Galician Ruthenians demonstrates this', he argues, 'their national construction was a lot more advanced, the political experience acquired in the bosom of the constitutionalAustrianstatesuperiorand theirinstitutionsbetterdeveloped and still the West Ukrainian People's Republic could not resist the Polish troopsfor long' (p. I44). The Soviet era is also dealt with sagely. When it comes to the highly controversialtopic of the I932-33 Famine,forexample, Kappeler arguesthat the question of whether it should be classed as an anti-Ukrainian 'genocide' 'cannot be resolved on the basis of available sources' (p. 157). The same sources, however, leave no doubt that it was deliberate and that 'the number of Ukrainian deaths from famine surpassed those of all other nationalities' (P. I56). The Purgesalso hit Ukraine particularlyhard, and undermined the paradigms of nationalist mobilization that had embryonically emerged in 19I7-20 and the I920s. The consolidationof UkrainianterritoryunderSoviet auspices in the I940S also closed off the West Ukrainian nationalistoption of the I930s. Nevertheless, thanks to the well-known paradoxes of Soviet rule I40 SEER, 8o, I, 2002 (institutionalizednationality,socialmobilization, the cycle of 'thawand frost'), Ukraine was in a lot better state to make its second bid for independence in I99I. But not in an ideal state. Of the seven majorproblemsKappelerlistsfor the new Ukraine - improving the economy, overhauling the old system of administrationand the dominance of the apparatchiksof old, the integration of diverse regions, managing inter-ethnic relations, settling relations with Russia, fixing of frontiers and developing national security (see pp. I92-20I) - only the sixth could be consideredtrulysolved at the time of writing.But for thisa historianis not to blame. The essays in Ukraine,renaissance d'unmythenationalshed more light on Ukraine'scontemporaryproblems, beginning once again with historiography andtheproductionandreproductionof 'myth'.The chapterbythemedievalist Nataliia Yakovenko provides a welcome critique of mythologization as absolutization, 'historiographicalvulgarization' (p. I I7) and the dangers of replacing Soviet mythology with a simplistic 'canonization of Hrushevs'kyi' (p. i i 9). Avoidingthe temptationsof GrandNarrative, she providesinsteada carefully nuanced discussion of how 'six or seven specificformules-mythemes recurin a constantfashion to make up the Ukrainiannational myth' (p. I 2 I). Examples of these mythemes include the persistentleitmotifs of 'reunion', 'lost Europe', and/or Ukraine's unique position between East and West and of Ukraine'sconsequent perpetual 'need to choose' (PrinceVolodymyr's'choice of religion', Khmel'nyts'kyi's 'choice of protector...

The clinical, electrophysiologic, and genetic characteristics of autosomal dominant partial epilepsy were studied in 71 patients and 33 non-epileptic at-risk family members in 19 European families followed at the Hopital Universitaire de Geneve, Switzerland, and centers in Strasbourg, Paris, Grenoble, Nice, Marseille, Rome, and Pisa.

Remarques sur la dimension générique et sur la dimension dénominative des proverbes

Laurent Perrin (Universite de Geneve) : Some Remarks on the Generic and Denominative Status of Proverbs Based on Kleiber's (1989) hypothesis, according to which proverbs are denominations referring to generic situations, this article supports the idea that proverbs have in fact a double dimension, in that they are both generic and idiomatic, that is, denominative sentences; proverbs simultaneously affirm general truths and, through their idiomatic or sententious form, denominate a generic situation that is relative to a multitude of identical preliminary affirmations. Such a conception of proverbs leads us to the question of the lexicalization of rhetorical acts, especially metaphors.

Neutron powder diffraction symposium held in Sydney

On June 22, 2000. the Australian Institute of Science and Technology hosted its Second Annual Symposium on Neutron Scattering, this time on the subject of powder diffraction. Approximately 50 participants, including students and staff from eight universities across the continent, at-tended, along with representatives of two government labs and three overseas visitors. There were plenary talks by Alan Hewat (ILL) and Klaus Yvon (Universite de Geneve) on the subjects of “New Diffractometers at the ILL–the Millennium Programme” and “Neutron Diffraction for the Development of New Metal Hydrides for Energy Storage,” respectively.

The 1 km3 late Pleistocene (68 ka) Tatara dacite is chemically homogeneous, phenocryst-poor, and contains crystals of opa-citized hornblende, orthopyroxene, and titanomagnetite, plus 2 mm euhedral plagioclase phenocrysts with simple zoning patterns. Except at their rims, analyzed phenocrysts show nearly monotonie core-to-rim changes from An52 to An31, including slight decreases in MgO and FeO′ and slight increases in Ba, Sr, and K concentrations. Abrupt, but small, chemical shifts are associated with many subtle dissolution surfaces. In contrast, the 0.1 km3 of chemically and texturally heterogeneous Holocene San Pedro dacite contains crystals of clinopyroxene, orthopyroxene, hornblende, biotite, titanomagnetite, ilmenite, and abundant 2 mm euhedral plagioclase phenocrysts, plus plagioclase and olivine xenocrysts derived from fragmented quenched basaltic inclusions. Analyzed phenocrysts span the range from An72 to An32. Abrupt increases of 15 mol% An, large increases in MgO, FeO′, and Sr, and decreases in Ba and K2O concentrations are associated with a few major dissolution surfaces. Plagioclase xenocrysts of An74–86 have higher Sr, MgO, and FeO′ and lower Ba and K concentrations than the phenocrysts, reflecting crystallization from a basaltic melt. In both dacites, phenocryst rims decrease in Sr and increase in K and Ti relative to equilibrium values as a consequence of rapid crystal growth at high undercooling during magma ascent and eruption. Modeling of variations in apparent DSrplag/melt implies growth rates for the ≤100 μm phenocryst rims of 10−9 cm/s, suggesting that magma ascent may have taken several months. Provided these kinetic effects are identified, the remainder of the concentration profiles for Sr, Ba, Mg, and K in plagioclase phenocrysts can be inverted using partition coefficient expressions to monitor the temporal evolution of melts in the preemptive magma chambers.Monotonie melt trends and periodic thermal dissolution of Tatara dacite phenocrysts imply a magma chamber closed to inputs of new magma and heat. Repeated cycles of crystal growth and weak dissolution occurred during phenocryst retention in thermally driven convection cells characterized by steady-state laminar flow. In contrast, dissolution events associated with large, abrupt shifts in melt Sr, Mg, and K/Ba toward basaltic values indicate that in the Holocene magma chamber heating of silicic melt adjacent to basaltic inclusions during magma mingling caused plagioclase dissolution. Renewed plagioclase growth from the resulting small volumes of hybrid melt recorded highly localized chemical mixing by diffusion and accompanying cycles of fractionation. This content is PDF only.

Differential Algebraic Equations, Indices, and Integral Algebraic Equations

In a recent report, Hairer, Lubich, and Roche [Report CH-1211, Dept. de Mathematiques, Universite de Geneve, Geneve, Switzerland, 1988] define the index of differential algebraic equations (DAEs) by considering the effect of perturbations of the equations on the solutions. This index, which will be called the perturbation index $p_i $, is one more than the number of derivatives of the perturbation that must appear in any estimate of the bound of the change in the solution. An earlier form of index used by a number of authors including Gear and Petzold [SIAM J. Numer. Anal., 21 (1984), pp. 716–728] is determined by the number of differentiations of the DAEs that are required to generate an ordinary differential equation (ODE) satisfied by the solution. This will be called the differential index $d_i $. Hairer, Lubich, and Roche give an example whose differential index is one and perturbation index is two and other examples where they are identical. It will be shown that $d_i \leqq p_i \leqq d_i + 1$ and th...

The Film Library and How It Grew

the history of film music only to the extent that it represents a trial-and-error groping toward a satisfactory aesthetic, and I have cited outstanding examples of film music only to the extent that they throw light on that aesthetic. In describing examples of film music, I have tried to be as specific as possible short of using musical technicalities that would be unfamiliar to the layman. 2. Ambient is the least ambiguous term I can find to describe music which forms an integral part of the sounds of a scene. 3. There is an objective physical basis to this variety, since tone color depends on the particular pattern of harmonics (subsidiary notes higher than the main note) produced by each musical instrument. organ sounds fuzzy because most of its pipes produce sounds rich in harmonics. flute, by contrast, has few harmonics, and McLaren's artificial music virtually none. Nevertheless, association is probably more important than acoustics in determining the effect of tone color in film music. 4. Stevens's error is in relying on the literary connection between the title and libretto of the oratorio and the content of his film. association aroused by the sound of The Messiah is likely to be a church rather than the Holy Land of 2,000 years ago. Grosbard's error, I suspect, is more calculating: forties-style music would be a less popular production value than folk-rock. 5. It's interesting to note that, in the experimental field, music and film today often exchange their usual characteristics. Many abstract films (such as those of John Whitney) do consist of mathematically generated patterns and rhythms, while aleatory music (such as John Cage's) involves randomness and uncertainty. However, little if any aleatory music has been used with dramatic films, and what follows in this article may explain why. 6. E. Jaques-Dalcroze, writing in the Revue de Geneve, December 1925, noted that silent film accompanists had taken to eliminating all superfluous ornament and picturesque effects and were devoting themselves instead to creating a 'continuous' music whose sole object was to envelop the continuity of the visual action with an aural atmosphere of decor. 7. In Hitchcock Selon Trufaut, Hitchcock is reported as complaining that a scene between Ingrid Bergman and Gregory Peck in Spellbound is spoiled by intrusive violins.

The Project of Transferring the University of Geneva to America

AMERICAN PARTICIPATION in international education started much earlier than the twentieth century. The activities of Franklin and Jefferson, although American, were international at the same time (see my two articles in the Proceedings of A.P.S. for 1952 and 1954). As an example of American interest in foreign education the project of transplanting the Genevan Academy to America could be mentioned. The details are taken from Jefferson Papers (Library of Congress, Washington) and Sir Francis D'Ivernois Papers (The Library of the University of Geneva). The scheme was started by D'Ivernois from London. D'Ivernois was in British diplomatic service and was knighted by George III. Being safe in London, he wanted to save his friends, Genevan professors, from the threat of Robespierre's terror in France. D'Ivernois was introduced by DuMont to Albert Gallatin. The latter was educated in Geneva, but emigrated to America and took part in the war of independence. In 1782 he was professor of French at Harvard. He founded the Ethnological Society of America and was a personal friend of Jefferson. Gallatin introduced D'Ivernois to Jefferson and they started a correspondence about the transplantation of the Genevan Academy to America. This project was imperfectly known to historians of education. Charles Borgeaud in his Histoire de l'Universite de Geneve (1900) mentioned the project only in a note. From manuscripts available in

Further Remarks about Early Uses of the Term "Social Science"

In a note, The Earliest Use of Term 'Social Science ', which appeared in this Journal,' Prof. Peter R. Senn observed that reference in Oxford English Dictionary, which places first use in English of term social science as occurring in 1846 in George Herbert Lewes' Biographical History of Philosophy, is inaccurate. Prof. Senn pointed out that John Stuart Mill had previously used term in an article which appeared in October 1836, while in French Sismondi had used social sciences (sciences sociales) in title of a book which also appeared in 1836. Although Prof. Senn believes that there is some possible doubt that Mill references were earliest in English, he concludes that evidence now indicates that Mill and Sismondi references . . . are earliest both in English and in French and that they occurred in same year, 2 that both writers arrived at term independently, and that Sismondi reference marks earliest established use of term in any language. Prof. Senn was correct in suspecting that term had been used earlier. Indeed, far from being used for first time in 1836, both term and concept appear to have been fairly well known in both French and English languages by that time. In French, Charles Fourier used term as early as 1808 in Introduction to his Theorie des quatre mouvemens et des destine6es gene'rales. Maintaining that moral and political whose theories were incompatible with experience, had been discredited in 1793, Fourier offered in their place a still unknown social science (une science sociale encore inconnue). 3 Among Saint-Simonians concept of a science of society was considerably older than term. Beginning with his first book, Lettres d'un habitant de Geneve (1803), Henri de Saint-Simon was concerned with application to study of society of laws similar to those of physical and biological sciences. All sciences, Saint-Simon observed, had passed from a conjectural through a semi-conjectural to a positive stage. He insisted that physiologists must follow suit and expel metaphysicians from their ranks. Saint-Simon coined various terms which either included or designated study of society, the physics of organized bodies as against physics of brute bodies,' 4 moral and political 5

(1) (a) Les méthodes de Fédorof et leurs applications a la détermination des plagiodases (2) Mikroskopische Physiographic der petrographisch-wichtigen Mineralien

THE employment of crystal optics in the determination of minerals is a very special branch of applied physics which has been industriously pursued in recent years, but it is the task of distinguishing between the different plagiodases that has called for the greatest refinements. These important constituents of igneous rocks present the closest resemblance to one another, but vary greatly in composition, forming a continuous series from albite, soda plagioclase rich in silica, Na2OAl2O6SiO2, to anorthite, lime plagioclase, CaOAl2O32SiO2, which contains much less. They differ, however, in the orientation of their axes and planes of optical symmetry relatively to their crystal structures, and in other optical characters. The foundations of these investigations were laid by Schuster, in Germany, and Michel Levy in France, but it is to the great Russian crystallographer Fedorov and his pupil Nikitin that we owe the latest and most far-reaching developments, and they have now been rendered generally available by Duparc and Reinhard in Switzerland, and by Wiilfing in Germany, in the works before us.

Instincts of Wasps

PERHAPS it may interest your reviewer of Dr. and Mrs. Peckham's work “On the Instincts and Habits of the Solitary Wasps,” to learn that one of the main results in question has been already arrived at in a paper by the late Prof. Schiff, of Geneva, in Memoires de la Soc. de Physique et d'Histoire naturelle de Geneve, vol. xxviii., 1882–3. I quote the following passage, as in some way complementary to the observations of Dr. Peckham:
