Nine species of saprophytic hyphomycetes (anamorphic fungi), collected on plant debris from two different localities of southeast Florida, are recorded for the first time from the United States. They are: Anungitea fragilis, Beltraniella havanensis, Canalisporium caribense, Circinotrichum papakurae, Dictyosporium micronesicum, D. subramanianii, Dischloridium laeense, Gyrothrix verticillata and ...

A series of lenses for focusing and collimating the output of semiconductor lasers is described. The description of an anamorphic prism pair to convert the beam cross-section from elliptical to circular is also given. Designs which perform to diffraction limitation yet lend themselves to low cost manufacturing are specifically considered. Correction for the aberrative effects of diode windows, ...

The design of a novel anamorphic optofluidic imaging system based on pair liquid lenses whose toroidal surfaces create different optical powers in the symmetry-axes is presented. Using electrowetting-ondieletrics for actuation, cylindrical fluidic actuated by 32 azimuthally-distributed electrodes allowing definition non-rotationally-symmetric surface shapes. We present and simulation this show ...
