Entomologica varia

Acta Entomologica Musei Nationalis Pragae

Recent phylogenetic analyses, both morphological and molecular, strongly support the monophyly of most insect ‘orders’. On the contrary, the Blattaria, Psocoptera, and Mecoptera are defi nitely paraphyletic (with respect of the Isoptera, Phthiraptera, and Siphonaptera, respectively), and the Phthiraptera are possibly diphyletic. Small relictual subclades that are closely related to the Isoptera...

Sesquiterpene lactone glycosides from the roots of Ferula varia.

Seven new sesquiterpene lactone glycosides (1-7) were isolated from the H2O-soluble fraction from the MeOH extract of the roots of Ferula varia. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses. The absolute configurations of compounds 1 and 2 were determined by modified Mosher's method.

The differogram: Non-parametric noise varia estimation and its use for model selection

achines; Model-free estimates of the noise variance are important in model selection and tuning parameters. In this paper a data representation is discussed which leads to estimator suitable for multivariate data. Its visual representation—called the differogra here—is based on the 2-norm of the differences of input and output data. The crucial of locality in this representation is translated a...
