The small lacewing genus Apertochrysa comprises species from Africa, Asia and Australia. All lack a tignum, but otherwise resemble distantly related genera. We show that Apertochrysa does not form a monophyletic clade, based on analyses of molecular sequence data and morphological traits such as the presence and shape of the male gonapsis, wing venation, and larval setae. Apertochrysa kichijoi forms a clade with Eremochrysa, Suarius and Chrysemosa, whereas A. albolineatoides belongs to a clade that includes Cunctochrysa. Apertochrysa albolineatoides should become a new combination as Cunctochrysa albolineatoides, while A. kichijoi will have to be transferred to a new genus. The Australian A. edwardsi, the African A. eurydera and the type species of the genus Apertochrysa, A. umbrosa, join the large Pseudomallada group. Relationships of A. umbrosa are less certain, because for it we could amplify only one of the three nuclear genes used in the overall analysis. However, in all morphological traits tested, that species strongly resembles A. edwardsi and A. eurydera and thus is very likely just another exceptional Pseudomallada lacking a tignum. The fate of the genus name Apertochrysa depends on additional molecular and morphological analyses of A. umbrosa.

Values Based Reflective Practice (VBRP®) is a group reflection framework widely utilized within healthcare settings across Scotland, where groups of colleagues meet and discuss their workplace-based experiences using the VBRP® structure. The VBRP® model has previously been noted within HSCC as assisting “courageous conversations” about working in a caring vocation (Bunniss, 2021a, 2021b). Despite its national platform, however, there has been limited evaluation of VBRP®. Aim: This study explores the impact of VBRP® as a reflective tool among undergraduate medical students. Method: A qualitative action research methodology was used. Results: Three themes were identified from the data: overcoming barriers to reflection during VBRP®; enhancing reflection through the social nature of VBRP®; participants’ perceptions of reflection through the lens of VBRP®. Conclusion: VBRP® enabled deeper, more authentic reflection and enhanced written reflection abilities due to its social nature. It promoted the formation of peer support networks and positive coping mechanisms among medical students. Teamworking and group relationships were also improved.

AbstractThe family Nemasomatidae is redefined to include onty genera with all sterna secondarily free from pleurotergites. Comments are given on the included genera, viz., Antrokoreana, Basoncopus gen. n. (type-species B. filiformis sp. n.) (Kazakhstan), Dasynemasoma, Thalassisobates, Sinostemmiulus, Nemasoma, and Orinisobates. Isobates coiffaiti Demange, 1961 is synonymized with Thalassisobates littoralis (Silvestri, 1903). Orinisobates is revised and shown to include O. soror sp. n. (Kuril Islands), O. microthylax sp. n. (Kamchatka and Siberia), O. gracilis (Verhoeff, 1933) (NW China), O. sibiricus (Gulicka, 1963) (Altai region, Kazakhstan), O. kasakstanus (Lohmander, 1933) (Kazahkstan), O. nigrior (Chamberlin, 1943) (eastern United States), O. utus (Chamberlin, 1912) (northwestern United States), and O. expressus (Chamberlin, 1941) (northwestern United States and adjacent Canada). Mimolene oregona Chambertin, 1941 and M. sectile Loomis & Schmitt, 1971 are synonymized with O. expressus. A possible case of parthenogenesis in O. microthylax is recorded. Evidence is presented for the following sister-group relationships: Antrokoreana + (Basoncopus + (Dasynemasoma + (Thalassisobates + (Sinostemmiulus + (Orinisobates + Nemasoma))))). The position of Basoncopus is uncertain, and O. soror may belong in a separate genus and constitute the sister-group of Orinisohates + Nemasoma. If soror does belong in Orinisobates, it is the sister-group of all its congeners. The American species of Orinisobates are shown probably to constitute a monophyietic group. The family is suggested to have originated in the eastern Palearctic region, Orinisobates having invaded North America via the Bering Bridge. Doubtful species and species erroneously assoiciated with the Nemasomatidae are listed. The genera Okeanobates and Yosidaiulus are excluded from the family and referred to Okeanobatidae stat. n. in superfamily Blaniuloidea. The genera Trichonemasoma, Telsonemasoma, and Chelojulus are also excluded from the Nemasomatidae and relegated to Julida incertae sedis.

Different Levels

Intraspecific conflict can be costly; therefore, many species engage in ritualized contests composed of several stages. Each stage is typically characterized by different levels of aggression, arousal, and physical conflict. During these different levels of “intensity,” animals benefit from communicating potential information related to features such as resource holding potential, relative fighting ability, level of aggression, intent (i.e., fight or flight), and whether or not the competitor currently holds the resource (e.g., a receptive female). This information may be conveyed using both visual displays and a complex acoustic repertoire containing fixed (e.g., age, sex, and body size) and flexible information (e.g., motivation or arousal). Calls that contain fixed information are generally considered “discrete” or stereotyped, while calls that convey flexible information are more “graded,” existing along an acoustic continuum. The use of displays and calls, and the potential information they convey, is likely dependent on factors like intensity level. The breeding system of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) involves intense male competition for access to a relatively limited number of breeding females (the resource). Here, we investigated the behavior and acoustic repertoire of competitive groups of humpback whales to determine if an increase in intensity level of the group was correlated with an increase in the complexity of the vocal repertoire. We categorized the behavior of humpback whales in competitive groups into three mutually exclusive stages from low to high intensity. While discrete calls were infrequent compared to graded calls overall, their use was highest in “low” and “moderate” intensity groups, which may indicate that this stage of contest is important for assessing the relative resource holding potential of competitors. In contrast, visual displays, call rates, and the use of graded call types, were highest during “high intensity” competitive groups. This suggests that flexible information may be more important in “high intensity” levels as males continue to assess the motivation and intent of competitors while actively engaged in costly conflict. We have shown that the relatively complex social call repertoire and visual displays of humpback whales in competitive groups likely functions to mediate frequently changing within-group relationships.

The Relationship

Recurring organizational communication problems, lack of communication between superiors and subordinates, and also conflict at the employee level make the basis for researchers to conduct research and try to provide recommendations to improve conditions that occur in the Balittas organization. This study will focus on quality of relationships between superiors and subordinates as well as colleagues in organization. This study aims to describe and analyze the quality of the relationship between superiors and subordinates. This research was conducted using the Action Research method with the aim of being in Balittas from 2010 to 2019. Departing from the constructivism paradigm, this study carried out data collection by structured interviews and analyzed using the action research cycle from Coghland & Brannick. The quality of the relationship between superiors and subordinates, between colleagues for each period of each leader based on the LMX theory is dominated by the quality of the out group. This is because the relationship is only a contractual one. Subsequent research can develop the application of LMX theory in other government work units and create efforts to build quality in group relationships within Balittas. Based on LMX theory (low relationship quality) because the exchange of behavior of organizational members is limited to contractual ties and the low level of support and trust in each other.

Context  Webdocumentaries are relatively new media and documentary entities and, though some articles have been written about them and typologies of the genre have been developed, no one has yet underlined or discussed their capacities for creating relational spaces, namely spaces that facilitate individual and group relationships, and social and individual links. Analysis This article examines, from a relational perspective, a selection of webdocumentaries produced primarily by the National Film Board of Canada (NFB), in a desire to identify the address modalities and interactive devices specific to this media object, that foster conversation, sharing, a sense of identification, collaboration and the discovery of others.Conclusions and implications  Webdocumentaries, through their spaces of expression, communication and collaboration, support a feeling of listening and of being heard. They act as a public place that encourages the meeting of others and asynchronous socialization.Contexte Les webdocumentaires sont des objets documentaires et médiatiques relativement nouveaux qui ont certes fait l’objet de quelques articles et d’élaboration de typologies, sans que toutefois soit relevé et discuté leur capacité à créer des espaces relationnels, c’est-à-dire des espaces favorisant les relations interindividuelles et groupales ainsi que le lien social et avec autrui. Analyse  Cet article étudie une sélection de webdocumentaires, principalement produits par l’Office national du film du Canada (ONF), depuis une perspective relationnelle afin d’identifier les modalités d’adresse de même que les dispositifs interactifs qui sont spécifiques à cet objet médiatique et qui encouragent la découverte d’autrui, la conversation, le partage, l’identification et la collaboration. Conclusions et implications  Le webdocumentaire, par ses espaces d’expression, de communication et de collaboration, permet un sentiment d’écouter et d’être entendu. Il agit telle une place publique qui favorise la rencontre avec l’autre et la socialisation en différé.
