Early Land

Vitalianthus was established by Schuster & Giancotti (1993) based on Drepanolejeunea bischleriana K.C.Pôrto & Grolle (1987: 301), which is endemic to the Atlantic coast of north-eastern Brazil. This genus is related to Drepanolejeunea (Spruce 1884: 76) Schiffner (1893: 119) (Gradstein et al. 2001, Gradstein & Costa 2003, He et al. 2012a, b) and characterized by the 1) hyaline papilla at the proximal side of lobule tooth, 2) unbroken basal vitta of 3-7 ocelli in leaf lobes, 3) bilobed underleaves with upright lobes, 4) gynoecial innovations with a pycnolejeuneoid leaf sequence, 5) perianth keels unarmed, and 6) absence of specialized cladia (He et al. 2012a). In addition to the type species, this genus currently also contains Vitalianthus urubuensis Zartman & Ackerman (2002: 267) from the Amazonian rainforests of Brazil and Colombia (Zartman & Ackerman 2002, Mota de Oliveira & ter Steege 2013, Campos et al. in prep.), and V. guangxianus Zhu et al. (2012a: 32). Our examination of type material and recent collections of Vitalianthus urubuensis from Brazil and Colombia reveals that the hyaline papilla of the leaf lobule is distal as in Cheilolejeunea (Spruce 1884: 79) Schiffner (1893: 118) (Fig. 1E,F). The moniliate, unbroken vitta of ocelli in the leaf lobes, one of the most important features of Vitalianthus, also occurs in some species of Cheilolejeunea, e.g. in Cheilolejeunea falsinervis (Sande Lacoste 1854: 321) Schuster & Kachroo (1961: 56) from Asia and Australasia. It thus appears that V. urubuensis is morphologically more similar to Cheilolejeunea than to Vitalianthus. The morphological affinity between Vitalianthus urubuensis and Cheilolejeunea is confirmed by our unpublished molecular data (ITS, trnG and trnL-F; Wei et al., in prep.) which show that V. urubuensis and several species of Cheilolejeunea form a monophyletic lineage. Therefore, the following new combination is necessary.

To Receive

Carinacuma, a new bodotriid cumacean genus, is diagnosed to receive Spilocuma watlingi Omholt & Heard as its type species and C. umesi sp. nov., described from shallow waters (0.8 to 2.8 m) on the Mid-Atlantic coast of North America. Carinacuma gen. nov. has its closest affinities to the North American genera Spilocuma and Mancocuma, but can be distinguished from them and the other genera within the subfamily Vaunthompsoniinae by a combination of characters, including the presence of a dorsal carina or keel on pereonite 3 of the female, morphology of the antenna, absence of pleopods in the male, and the setation and segmentation of the uropods. Carinacuma umesi sp. nov., can be differentiated from its northern Gulf of Mexico cognate, C. watlingi comb. nov. by several characters, including: (1) maxilliped 3 carpus of female with inner margin bearing four to five simple setae, (2) uropod peduncle of female with inner margin bearing one sub-distal micro-serrate seta with single sub-terminal medial setule, (3) male antennule peduncle articles 1–2 sub-equal length, and (4) male antennule accessory flagellum slightly longer than basal article of main flagellum. A key to the five known males lacking pleopods within Vaunthompsoniinae is provided.

Species Type

A new genus of Clivinini, Psammocoryza Hogan new genus, and its type species P.vanemdeni Hogan new species (type locality Barra de Serinhaem, Pernambuco, Brazil), is described. Diagnostic features are illustrated by line drawings and photographs. Psammocoryza resembles Halocoryza Alluaud and Schizogenius Putzeys but differs by the peculiar macrosculpture of the pronotum, tuberculate profemora and reduced setation of the gonocoxite.

Chronische Entzündungen

Ein 58jähriger Mann wurde mit Übelkeit, Oberbauchschmerzen, einem palpablen Tumor im rechten oberen Epigastrium und begleitendem Fieber aber fehlender Leukozytose und CRP-Erhöhung aufgenommen. Sowohl die Ultraschalluntersuchung als auch eine im Anschluss durchgeführte Computertomographie deuteten auf einen malignen Tumor der Gallenblase mit Infiltration der Leber und begleitender Abszessformation in den Segmenten 4b und 3 hin. Die Indikation zur Entfernung des Tumors im Sinne einer Hemihepatektomie links mit Cholezystektomie und Abszessdrainage wurde gestellt. Intraoperativ fand sich dann jedoch eine chronisch-eitrige Cholezystitis ohne Beteiligung der Leber selbst, sodass nur eine Cholezystektomie durchgeführt werden musste. Die histologische Untersuchung der Gallenblase erbrachte keinen Hinweis auf ein malignes Geschehen. Der Patient erholte sich gut von dem operativen Eingriff und konnte sieben Tage später entlassen werden. Diese Fallbeschreibung zeigt die Probleme auf, die bei der Differentialdiagnostik von entzündlichen und malignen Gallenblasenerkrankungen mit Beteiligung von angrenzenden Strukturen, insbesondere der Leber, bestehen. Trotz apparativer Untersuchungen wie Sonographie und Computertomogramm ist die letztendlich richtige Diagnose häufig nur intraoperativ zu stellen und erst dann die adäquate Therapie festlegbar. Chronische Entzündungen der Gallenblase können als solide Tumoren imponieren und dann als maligne Prozesse der Gallenblase und der angrenzenden Lebersegmente fehlinterpretiert werden.
