Three comparative views of the South Esk River running through the Cataract Gorge. We are looking towards the First Basin and suspension bridge. The photo on the left was taken on an early morning in May 2020 at the end of a dry autumn. The one on the right was taken late in the afternoon of September 2019. You'll notice that this part of the gorge is largely shaded all day.
The centre shot shows the recent flooding in the Cataract Gorge as the waters were still rising. Now that the rain has stopped water levels are gradually returning to normal levels. Historically however, the centre photo represents something closer to the normal flow of the South Esk River prior to the building of the Trevellyn Dam in the early 1950s.
At the time this was one of the earliest conservation struggles in Tasmania. It was lost, as was the loss of the priceless wilderness around Lake Pedder in the early 1970s. The environmental tide turned however, with the successful anti-dams campaign in the lead-up to the 1983 Australian national elections. No dam has been built in Tasmania since.

At the time, this was just another photograph, in early-mid afternoon on the last day of a two-week road trip. I didn't realise just how iconic this location/view is. It was the only shot I took here and is scanned from a negative.
For the uninitiated, like me at that time, Oxbow Bend in Grand Teton National Park is the most photographed place in the entire park. The image of the Snake River with Mount Moran's reflection is iconic and has been photographed millions of times!
Mount Moran (3,842m) is named for Thomas Moran, an American western frontier landscape artist. Mount Moran dominates the northern section of the Teton Range rising 1,800m above Jackson Lake. Several active glaciers exist on the mountain with Skillet Glacier plainly visible on the monolithic east face.
Mount Moran is a massive and impressive mountain which would make it attractive to mountaineers. However, the comparative difficulty of the approach to the climbs makes it a much less popular climb than other peaks to the south.

Por si sirve de referencia o comparativa, se pueden ver a las dos mariposas juntas. La propia aberrante y su colega con el clásico diseño. Por suerte, también las capté de reverso, así que testimonio completo, pues en cualquiera de los casos tal oportunidad fotera con ejemplares aberrantes y en reunión con sus congéneres no es frecuente que digamos. De por sí ya algunas especies resultan de odisea capturarlas en solitario.
Como se puede observar y es de suponer que por alguna razón genética eclosionó con esa malformación en el estampado del anverso de sus alas superiores. Salvo las manchas amarillo-anaranjado que separan la zona basal de la discal, tanto el espacio basal como el discal y postdiscal están coloreados de marrón muy oscuro. Por supuesto, para quienes no las conozcan o mayor aclaración, la “rara” es la que está situada a la derecha.
In case it serves as a reference or comparison, you can see the two butterflies together. The aberrant herself and her colleague with the classic design. Luckily, I also took them back, so testimony, because in any case such an photo opportunity with aberrant specimens and in a meeting with their congeners is not often to say. In itself and some species result from an odyssey to capture them alone.
As you can see and presumably for some genetic reason hatched with that malformation in the pattern of the obverse of its upper wings. Except for the yellow-orange spots that separate the basal area of the disc, both the basal space and the disc and postdiscal are colored very dark brown. Of course, for those who do not know or clarification, the "rare" is the one on the right.
Si cela sert de référence ou de comparaison, vous pouvez voir les deux papillons ensemble. L'aberrant elle-même et son collègue au design classique. Heureusement, je les ai aussi repris, donc témoignage, car de toute façon, une telle occasion de photographier avec des spécimens aberrants et lors d'une réunion avec leurs congénères n'est pas souvent à dire. En soi et certaines espèces résultent d'une odyssée pour les capturer seules.
Comme vous pouvez le voir et vraisemblablement pour une raison génétique, éclos avec cette malformation dans le motif de l’avers de ses ailes supérieures. Hormis les taches jaune orangé qui séparent la zone basale du disque, l’espace basal ainsi que le disque et le disque postdiscal sont tous deux de couleur brun très foncé. Bien sûr, pour ceux qui ne le savent pas ou ne le savent pas, le "rare" est celui de droite.
I went up to Groningen to bid farewell to my longtime friend Jan Johann Albinn (Hans) Mooij (1929-2019), onetime professor of analytic philosophy and comparative literature. Beforehand I visited the brandnew Forum Groningen, a huge cultural complex in the very heart of the city developed by NL Architects of Amsterdam. It was opened on November 29, 2019. The photo is of the entrance to the movie theatre in that megabuilding. In fact, the left side of the photo is a large mirror reflecting the right.
Thinking of the dear deceased my thoughts turned to Plato who considered Theuth, the Egyptian God, to be the ancestor of language and written texts, and thus of literature. And at the same time I realised that Plato and others in Antiquity like for example Cicero thought that just souls had companion stars to which, after death, they would rise... whether pure white or red as in the photo, I can't guess.
At the Main Theatre:
4pm SLT: Lantern Release Ceremony
Every day at 4pm, there will be a special lantern release ceremony from the roof of the Main Theatre at the Expo.
Sometimes people speak, but often the event takes place in comparative silence – a break from the busyness (and the business) of the Expo – a time to reflect, remember and mourn. Set your windlight to midnight and join us – or watch from afar.

challenge colourism
Only in recognising and challenging the racism that underpins colourism can we begin to address this pernicious prejudice.

[Myrmica Latreille 1804: 187+†7 (IT: 22+†0) spp]

[Oplitis Berlese 1884: 153 (IT: 9) spp]
Conspecific parapatric concurrent ☿, lateral sx habitus.
Citrus juice based anti-mite treatment successfully applied to M. scabrinodis ♀♀. Citrus limon juice contains up to 47 kg/m³ and 8% DM of citric acid. After the first local application, only a few Histiostoma sp phoretic deutonymphæ remain on M. scabrinodis ♀a and ♀b; ♀c is a young uninfested Myrmica ♀ found isolated nearby, presumably conspecific to ♀a and ♀b.
Myrmica scabrinodis specific group is undergoing a major speciation event at the current time, largely in response to
anthropogenically altered habitats. Over its range, it might comprise several (perhaps 4-5) cryptic species and in any region perhaps 2-3 of these live sympatrically, being ecoetologically separated. Therefore, if ecotypes 1 and 2 are recognized in region A and ecotypes 3 and 4 are recognized in region B, far away from A, there is no reason to suppose that 1 and 2 are genetically identical to 3 and 4. Such a problem can be solved definitively only with PCM. When Emery described Sifolinia lauræ ( = M. lauræ) in 1907, it was presumed to be a social parasite though its host was unknown. In 1987, M. Mei identified the host of Myrmica samnitica ( = M. lauræ) as M. sabuleti. However, in the non-type series which M. Mei collected from Abruzzo and Lazio, the ☿☿ mounted with them as hosts were treated by A. Radchenko in 2003 as atypical M. scabrinodis, with relatively large scape lobes, and they could easily be mistaken for M. sabuleti. Now, morphometrics of these conspecific Myrmica ♀♀ and ☿☿ collected in 2016 differ significantly from morphometrics of individuals found in other parapatric M. scabrinodis populations, corresponding to the very description of the atypical M. scabrinodis specimens collected from the same geographic region by M. Mei in 1987; therefore, it could be assumed that they are likely to belong to a new cryptic species of Myrmica which most probably evolved parapatrically, a quite common process among non-parasitic ants.
Besides antagonistic relationships between organisms such as parasitism and competition, the more neutral phoresy exists. It appears in some animal groups, for example within Hexapoda; larvæ of Meloidæ get transported by some Hymenoptera. But phoresy appears especially frequently within Nematoda and Acari. Phoresy evolved several times convergently within Acari. Because all Histiostomatidæ produce phoretic deutonymphæ, this phenomenon is the most important part of their biology. Phoresy is a phenomenon in which one individual of a species ascends an individual of another species at a given time of its ontogenesis. It is carried for a limited while to get to a new habitat. Usually they don’t feed during that time. Terms for the partners of such a phoretic relation are “phoret” for the ascending animal and “transporter” for the carrier. Phoresy is commonly found in habitats which change their conditions rapidly and elapse after a short time. Such habitats are called “ephemer biochoria”. Biochoria are parts of ecological systems distributed like islands, with a characteristic inventory of species. Examples for biochoria are: animal dung, carrion, compost. These habitats arise at uncertain locations to uncertain times. They differ from biochoria as puddles or formicaries, which regularly arise at certain locations. “Waving”, a behavior of the juvenile phorets in some groups of Nematoda and Acari, appears to find their transporters. Phoresy is a common phenomenon in the life cycle of free-living Astigmatina, a diverse and widely distributed monophyletic group. Some of them are permanent parasites of Aves and Mammalia, but ancestral Astigmatina are free-living and fungivorous. From there, the group has colonized many habitats. Deutonymphæ of Astigmatina most commonly occur in association with Coleoptera and Hymenoptera in arboreal and soil habitats; they can respond to both genders of the carrier or respond selectively only to one gender. Naiadacarus arboricola responds only to Syrphidæ ♀ carriers which visit water-filled treeholes to oviposit; Rhizoglyphus echinopus responds mainly to Osmoderma eremicola ♂♂. Kennethiella trisetosa only matures on ♂ larvæ of Ancistrocerus antilope: these mites propagate in the brood chambers of the wasp; then all mite stages except the deutonymphæ feed on the hemolympha of wasps in the stage immediatly before the pupa phase without damaging them. Deutonymphæ can only ascend the adult ♂ wasps, because ♀ wasp larvæ kill the mites before growing up. During the wasp’s copulation, the mites change actively into the genital chambers of the ♀ wasps. From there, they leave that ♀ during the egg deposition. During the transport, the deutonymphæ are always positioned on the propodeum of the ♂♂ on small polished cuticula areas. Because up to now no other function could be assigned to that structure, it is assumed that it evolved for the transportation of the deutonymphæ. Such a structure is called acarinarium. A satisfying evolutionary explication is missing. It is assumed that a mutualistic relationship between phoret and transporter exists; it cannot be ruled out that this relationship bears advantages for the transporter, but this is still unproved. Alternatively, the acarinaria could be evolved in a parasitic or in a “neutral” relationship. It could be beneficial for the transporter to have the mites restricted to areas where they are as less hindering as possible. Up to now, acarinaria are unknown for Histiostomatidæ. But because it could be assumed that some Histiostomatidæ bear advantages for their carriers, probably acarinaria will be found in future times on some carriers. The preference of one carrier gender is unknown for Histiostomatidæ spp but could probably exist. The act to ascend the carrier, in Astigmatina as in Histiostomatidæ, can occur spontaneously or can be provoked by a tactile stimulation of gnathosomal setæ or solenidia. The deutonymphæ of the non-Histiostomatidæ Carpoglyphus lactis show a conspicuous behavior and wait in a position with the body anchored to the substrate by the caudoventral suckers. Jumping to a height of 25-50 mm allows the mite to spring onto a passing Drosophilidæ carrier. Deutonymphæ of Sancassania spp remain on the carrier when it dies and subsequent stages exploit the carriers as saprophages of necrotic host tissues. Such a strategy is called "necromeny" and derived from phoresy. Sometimes, deutonymphæ are positioned in similar numbers on both sides of the carrier to minimize interference with the carrier's flight. An example is Glyphanœtus nomiensis (Histiostomatidæ) which is attached to Nomia melanderi (Halictidæ). It is less known concerning the detachment stimuli in Astigmatina. It could correlate with the oviposition of the carrier, as observed for non-Astigmatina mites. Deutonymphæ of Histiostoma polypori, which change from one earwig stage to the following of the same individual, may respond to chemical changes in the transporter's cuticle.
