The stag beetle (Coleoptera: Lucaindae) genus Hoplogonus Parry is endemic to northeastern Tasmania and contains three recognised species. Descriptions of the imagines have been published previously, but not the larvae. Descriptions of the larvae of the three Hoplogonus species and the sympatric Lissotes rudis Lea (also Lucanidae) are presented and discussed, and a key to aid identification of H...

Conservation of the threatened and protected European stag beetle (Lucanus cervus) mainly focuses on availability dead wood as larval habitat. However, ecology this species remains poorly studied, less attention has been given to other habitat requirements such ambient temperatures for development larvae. To design proper guidelines preservation iconic species, growth larvae is compared between...

Work on the syntax-semantics interface in the TAG framework has grappled with the problem of identifying a system with sufficient power to capture semantic dependencies which also imposes formally and linguistically interesting constraint on the kinds of dependencies that can be expressed. The consensus in recent years appears to have shifted to the use of a system that is substantially more ex...

Abstract We examine how pre-play communication and clustering affect play in a challenging hybrid experimental game on networks. Free-form chat is impressively effective achieving the non-equilibrium efficient outcome, but restricted has little effect. support this result with model about credibility of cheap-talk messages. also offer message diffusion that correctly predicts more rapid without...
