Two new species, Sarcophaga (Sarcosolomonia) collessi sp.nov. and Sarcophaga (Sarcorohdendorfia) clavus sp.nov., both collected in Queensland, Australia, are described, and the following four new synonymies are proposed: Sarcophaga horti Blackith and Blackith, 1988 syn.nov. of Sarcophaga bancroftorum Johnston and Tiegs, 1921; Sarcophaga fergusonina Hardy, 1940 syn.nov. of Sarcophaga assimilis M...

Johnston (1978), Deegan and Packel (1979), and Holler (1982) proposed three power indices for simple games: Johnston index, Deegan-Packel index, and the Public Good Index. In this paper, methods to compute these indices by means of the multilinear extension of the game are presented. Furthermore, a new characterization of the Public Good Index is given. Our methods are applied to two real-world...

We suggest that the activation model of identification benefits for repeated words and pseudowords proposed by Johnston, van Santen, and Hale (1985) is a variant of our own code/episode model (Salasoo, Shiffrin, & Feustel, 1985), used to explain the temporary and long-lasting effects of repetitions. In particular, Johnston et al.'s X and Y factors may reflect the operation of episodic memory tr...

ly ovarioles spit out oocyte-containing cysts “like a sausage machine,” says Daniel St. Johnston. In the process, the cysts are endowed with a clearly defined anterior-posterior polarity axis based on the posterior positioning of the oocyte. “The [axis] is hardwired into the geometry of the ovary,” says St. Johnston. “What we’re describing is the mechanism that transmits this.” That mechanism i...

The diversity of endosymbiotic dinoflagellates (Symbiodinium) in corals at Johnston Atoll in the central Pacific Ocean was assessed using both the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) region of the nuclear rDNA and chloroplast 23S rDNA. More sequences were recovered from corals using the ITS2 primers than with the chloroplast 23S primers, a finding that reflects both the higher taxonomic resolu...
