We identified a ca. 180 Ma diamondiferous lamproite event in Zambia, establishing a link between ultrapotassic volcanism and the early Jurassic Karoo flood basalt province of sub-Saharan Africa. The cratonic lamproites erupted through the Permo–Triassic Luangwa Rift structure, but MgO-rich ultrapotassic magma formation was unrelated to rifting and triggered by plume–lithosphere interactions during the Karoo LIP event. Elevated Li–Zn–Ti concentrations in magmatic olivine (up to 18.5 ppm Li at 86–90 mol.% forsterite) and strong Sr–Nd–Hf–Pb isotopic enrichment of the host lamproites ( 87Sr/86Sr = 0.70701–0.70855, εNd = − 10.8 to − 10, εHf = − 20.3 to − 19.1, 206Pb/204Pb = 16.8–17.5) suggest partial melting of phlogopite-metasomatized lithospheric mantle domains, at approximately 180–200 km depth. The mantle-like δ7 Li values (+2.8 to +5.7‰) of the most pristine lamproite samples are compatible with source enrichment by asthenosphere-derived melts, without significant involvement of recycled sedimentary components. This geochemical fingerprint stands in sharp contrast to the negative δ7 Li compositions of primitive K-rich volcanic rocks from collision zone settings, where the shallow mantle sources contain recycled sediment. Isotope modelling demonstrates that the sub-Saharan lamproites originate from a MARID-style metasomatized peridotitic mantle source that underwent incompatible element enrichment at ca. 1 Ga, during tectonic activity associated with Rodinia supercontinent formation. Plume-sourced basaltic and picritic magmas of the 180 Ma Karoo LIP interacted with such K-rich hydrous lithospheric mantle domains, thereby attaining enriched incompatible element and radiogenic isotope compositions. Nd–Hf isotope mass balance suggests that up to 25% of MARID-sourced lamproite melt component contributed to some of the high-Ti flood volcanic units. Although large quantities of volatiles can be transferred from Earth’s mantle to the atmosphere via plume–lithosphere interactions, it is unlikely that outgassing of mantle-sourced sulphur can exceed the climatic impact caused by the release of much more abundant carbon from thick continental roots. Thus, the excess SO2 required to account for transient atmospheric cooling during the early Jurassic, coincident with the Karoo LIP event, must have had a thermogenic origin near the surface of Earth.

We report the presence of a male Haemaphysalis semermis collected from the domestic cat, Felis catus in an aboriginal village located in Pahang, Malaysia. This paper constitutes a new host record of this tick species, and also the first documentation of the infestation of companion animals other than domestic dogs (Canis lupus) by H. semermis in Malaysia. Additionally, we have included an updated host index of the tick species in Southeast Asia.

The stannide BaRhSn2 was synthesized by induction melting of an arc-melted RhSn2 precursor compound with barium in a sealed tantalum ampoule. The structure of BaRhSn2 was refined from single-crystal X-ray diffractometer data: MgCuAl2 type, Cmcm, a = 437.56(4), b = 1242.35(10), c = 767.30(6) pm, wR2 = 0.0845, 469 F 2 values and 16 variables. The rhodium and tin atoms form a two-dimensional [RhSn2] δ− polyanionic network with short Rh–Sn (273–274 pm) and Sn–Sn (303–312 pm) distances. The large barium atoms lead to a substantial orthorhombic distortion of the (lonsdaleite-related) tin substructure, forcing a break of the Sn–Sn bond in b direction. This change in the tin substructure is reflected in the 119Sn Mössbauer spectrum. The tin atoms exhibit a higher s electron density which is expressed in an increased isomer shift of δ = 2.08(1) mm s−1 as compared to the previously reported stannide CaRhSn2 with a three-dimensional [RhSn2] δ− polyanionic network and δ = 1.96(4) mm s−1.

Potassic dikes of early Cretaceous age (ca. 115 Ma) are emplaced in the Gondwana sedimentary basins of the Damodar valley in eastern India. Two potassic dikes in the Jharia basin (Ena and Moonidih) are characterized by the presence of olivine macrocrysts and phenocrysts, together with microphenocrysts of olivine, phlogopite–biotite, ilmenite, and apatite. These are set in a groundmass of phlogopite, apatite, ilmenite, spinel, and K-feldspar. Microphenocrystal and groundmass Al-Na-poor diopside and Al-poor Ti-rich amphibole are present in the Ena dike, whereas rutile, pyrite, galena, Zr-Ti-rich garnet, and quartz are minor phases occurring in the Moonidih dike. Two populations of relatively fresh olivine (I and II) are found in the Ena dike, in contrast to the Moonidih dike, where olivine macrocrysts and microphenocrysts are completely replaced by secondary magnesite, serpentine, and talc. The occurrence of fresh olivine in the Ena dike is reported for the first time in the Jharia basin. High forsterite (Fo) and Ni together with low Ca and Mn contents of the olivine-I macrocrysts suggest a mantle-derived xenocrystic origin. In contrast, the olivine-II population has high Ca and Mn, but relatively low Fo and Ni, suggesting a magmatic origin. Rimward decreasing Al and increasing Fe contents in zoned phlogopite crystals, plus the presence of groundmass spinel with compositions along the titanomagnetite trend (T2), indicate the lamproitic affinity of the K-rich dike rocks. Using a mineralogical-genetic classification scheme, the Ena and Moonidih dikes are classified as olivine-phlogopite-diopside-apatite-amphibole-feldspar lamproite and olivine-phlogopite-apatite-feldspar lamproite, respectively. We use the compositional variations of phlogopite, amphibole, apatite, and spinel to understand better the magmatic evolution and crystallization history of these potassic dikes. The Cretaceous lamproite magmatic event in eastern India was sourced from ancient metasomatized lithospheric mantle, with low-degree partial melting either triggered in the periphery of the impinging Kerguelen mantle plume head or induced by distant subduction.

Studies of ticks in Malaysia from past articles were reviewed, resulting in a list of 47 species belonging to seven genera (Argas, Ornithodoros, Amblyomma, Dermacentor, Haemaphysalis, Ixodes, and Rhipicephalus). The most prevalent genus in Malaysia is Haemaphysalis (20 species), followed by Amblyomma (eight species) and Dermacentor (seven species). Out of 47 species, only 28 have bitten humans, mostly belonging to Haemaphysalis. The most researched tick-borne pathogens in Malaysia are Rickettsia and Anaplasma, and most research was focused on the tropical-lineage brown dog ticks, R. sanguineus sensu lato, and the cattle ticks, Haemaphysalis bispinosa and Rhipicephalus microplus. 18 species were excluded from the list due to lack of definite records or dubious findings: Ornithodoros mimon, O. turicata, Amblyomma breviscutatum, A. clypeolatum, A. integrum, A. maculatum, Dermacentor marginatum, D. taiwanensis, Haemaphysalis birmaniae, H. flava, H. humerosa, H. longicornis, H. punctata, H. sulcata, Ixodes holocyclus, Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, R. annulatus and R. bursa. This paper presents the first complete and updated list for Dermacentor and Ixodes tick species in Malaysia since Kohls (1957).

The formation of stable coalitions is a central concern in multiagent systems. A considerable stream of research defines stability via the absence of beneficial deviations by single agents. Such deviations require an agent to improve her utility by joining another coalition while possibly imposing further restrictions on the consent of the agents in the welcoming as well as the abandoned coalition. While most of the literature focuses on unanimous consent, we also study consent decided by majority vote, and introduce two new stability notions that can be seen as local variants of popularity. We investigate these notions in additively separable hedonic games by pinpointing boundaries to computational complexity depending on the type of consent and restrictions on the utility functions. The latter restrictions shed new light on well-studied classes of games based on the appreciation of friends or the aversion to enemies. Many of our positive results follow from the Deviation Lemma, a general combinatorial observation, which can be leveraged to prove the convergence of simple and natural single-agent dynamics under fairly general conditions.

Carbonatites are igneous rocks formed in the crust by fractional crystallization of carbonate-rich parental melts that are mostly mantle derived. They dominantly consist of carbonate minerals such as calcite, dolomite, and ankerite, as well as minor phosphates, oxides, and silicates. They are emplaced in continental intraplate settings such as cratonic interiors and margins, as well as rift zones, and rarely on oceanic islands. Carbonatites are cumulate rocks, which are formed by physical separation and accumulation of crystals that crystallize from a melt, and their parental melts form by either ( a) direct partial melting of carbonate-bearing, metasomatized, lithospheric mantle producing alkali-bearing calciodolomitic melts or ( b) silicate-carbonate liquid immiscibility following fractional crystallization of carbonate-bearing, silica-undersaturated magmas such as nephelinites, melilitites, or lamprophyres. Their emplacement into the crust is usually accompanied by fenitization, alkali metasomatism of wallrock caused by fluids expelled from the crystallizing carbonatite.Carbonatites are major hosts of deposits of the rare earth elements and niobium, and the vast majority of the global production of these commodities is from carbonatites. ▪ Carbonatites are igneous rocks formed from carbonate-rich magmas, which ultimately formed in Earth's upper mantle. ▪ Carbonatites are associated with economic deposits of metals such as the rare earth elements and niobium, which are essential in high-tech applications. ▪ There are more than 600 carbonatites in the geological record but only one currently active carbonatite volcano, Oldoinyo Lengai in Tanzania.

Rhipicephalus haemaphysaloides is endemic in South and Southeast Asia, and it is known to parasitise domestic animals such as cattle, horses, sheep, and dogs. Despite infestation on multiple hosts, little attention has been paid to its morphological and molecular variation. The present study describes local morphological abnormalities for the first time in R. haemaphysaloides from Malaysia, and highlights the presence of three cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) operational taxonomic units with 0.46-9.81% distances within the so-called R. haemaphysaloides in Malaysia, Thailand, and Pakistan.

Although African critical scholars since the 19th century have challenged the culture of studying and writing about Africa, research practices on Africa are still entangled in epistemic injustices resulting from colonial structures of power. In this reflective contribution, we illustrate how such knowledge production perpetuates coloniality and outline the ways in which academic coloniality affects the quality of research and is detrimental to both research subjects and knowledge consumers. To that end, we draw on our own experiences as researchers and teachers in German institutes and universities to analyse current trends and patterns in African Political Science. We provide concrete examples to demonstrate that this coloniality in academia is detrimental to research, fieldwork and publishing practices, teaching, and academic hiring policies. To challenge and change how knowledge is produced, Africanists from the Global North need to be aware of, and sensitised towards, their role in knowledge production. This article continues the debate on decolonising research on Africa.

The Gondwana sedimentary sequences of Damodar Valley in eastern India are intruded by the potassic intrusives of Cretaceous age. This study focuses on the mineralogy of one such potassic-rich dyke occurring in an underground Jamadoba colliery seam XI in Jharia basin, Jharkhand, India. It consists of olivine, phenocrystal phlogopite, microphenocrysts of phlogopite, apatite and diopside embedded in the groundmass comprising phlogopite, apatite, amphibole, ilmenite, rutile and K-feldspar. The presence of forsteritic olivine, low Al and Fe rich phlogopite, low Al-Na diopside, Al-poor and Ti-rich amphiboles and Fe-rich K-feldspar indicate the lamproitic character of the potassic dyke. Using a mineralogical-genetic classification scheme, the Jamadoba-XI dyke is classified as an olivine-phlogopite-apatite-diopside-amphibole-feldspar lamproite.

Investigating nocifensive withdrawal reflexes as potential surrogate marker for the spinal excitation level may widen the understanding of maladaptive nociceptive processing after spinal cord injury (SCI). The aim of this prospective, explorative cross-sectional observational study was to investigate the response behavior of individuals with SCI to noxious radiant heat (laser) stimuli and to assess its relation to spasticity and neuropathic pain, two clinical consequences of spinal hyperexcitability/spinal disinhibition. Laser stimuli were applied at the sole and dorsum of the foot and below the fibula head. Corresponding reflexes were electromyography (EMG) recorded ipsilateral. Motor responses to laser stimuli were analyzed and related to clinical readouts (severity of injury/spasticity/pain), using established clinical assessment tools. Twenty-seven participants, 15 with SCI (age 18–63; 6.5 years post-injury; AIS-A through D) and 12 non-disabled controls, [non-disabled controls (NDC); age 19–63] were included. The percentage of individuals with SCI responding to stimuli (70–77%; p < 0.001), their response rates (16–21%; p < 0.05) and their reflex magnitude (p < 0.05) were significantly higher compared to NDC. SCI-related reflexes clustered in two time-windows, indicating involvement of both A-delta- and C-fibers. Spasticity was associated with facilitated reflexes in SCI (Kendall-tau-b p ≤ 0.05) and inversely associated with the occurrence/severity of neuropathic pain (Fisher’s exact p < 0.05; Eta-coefficient p < 0.05). However, neuropathic pain was not related to reflex behavior. Altogether, we found a bi-component motor hyperresponsiveness of SCI to noxious heat, which correlated with spasticity, but not neuropathic pain. Laser-evoked withdrawal reflexes may become a suitable outcome parameter to explore maladaptive spinal circuitries in SCI and to assess the effect of targeted treatment strategies.

BACKGROUND Despite the fact that commercially developed automated insulin delivery (AID) systems have recently been approved and become available in a limited number of countries, they are not universally available, accessible, or affordable. Therefore, ‘open-source’ AID systems, co-created by an online community of people with diabetes (PwD) and their families behind the hashtag ‘#WeAreNotWaiting’, have become increasingly popular. OBJECTIVE This study focused on lived experiences, physical and emotional health implications of PwD following the initiation of open-source AID, their perceived challenges, and sources of support, which have not been explored by the existing literature. METHODS Data were collected from 383 participants across 29 countries through two sets of open-ended questions of a web-based survey regarding their experience of building and using open-source AID. Narratives were thematically analyzed and a coding framework was identified through iterative alignment. RESULTS Improvements in glycemia, physical health, sleep quality, emotional impact on everyday life and quality of life were consistently reported. Knowledge of open-source AID was largely obtained through the #WeAreNotWaiting community, which was also the primary source of practical and emotional support. Acquisition of the components to build open-source AID and technical set-up were sometimes problematic. CONCLUSIONS The #WeAreNotWaiting movement represents a primary example of how informed and connected patients proactively address their unmet needs, provide peer-support to each other and result in impactful user-driven solutions. Alongside evidence on the safety and efficacy of open-source AID, this qualitative analysis helps understand how patients’ experience and benefits range from psychosocial improvements to a reduction in the burden of managing diabetes.

Felicola juccii (Conci, 1942) Conci (1942) described the adult male and female of Felicola juccii from Paguma larvata grayi (Bennett, 1835), a subspecies of the masked palm civet collected in Myanmar. Emerson (1964b) reported F. juccii from the Formosan masked palm civet (Paguma larvata taivana Swinhoe, 1862) in Taiwan. Several subspecies of the masked palm civet are widely distributed in the Oriental region (Duckworth et al. 2016b). More studies are needed to determine the actual geographical distribution of F. juccii, especially if it parasitises any of the two subspecies living in Malaysia., Published as part of Kazim, Abdul-Rahman, Houssaini, Jamal, Tappe, Dennis & Heo, Chong-Chin, 2023, An annotated checklist of the chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Ischnocera, Amblycera Rhynchophthirina) from domestic and wild mammals in Malaysia, pp. 40-60 in Zootaxa 5263 (1) on page 50, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5263.1.2, http://zenodo.org/record/7797797, {"references":["Conci, C.

Felicola bengalensis (Werneck, 1948) The type host of Felicola bengalensis is the Asian palm civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus (Pallas, 1777), with a wide distribution from India to Southeast Asia. Werneck (1948) gave the type locality as “ de Pulo Terutan, na costa ocidental da peninsula de Malaca, Sião ” = “from Pulo Terutan, on the western coast of the Malacca Peninsula, Siam ”. The name “Pulo Terutan” refers to the Ko Tarutao Island in Thailand, located approximately 10 kilometers north of Pulau Langkawi in Peninsular Malaysia. Furthermore, Changbunjong et al.

Damalinia muntiaca (Séguy, 1948) The detailed type locality of Damalinia muntiaca is uncertain, as Séguy (1948) wrote that the type specimens were from a captive red muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak (Zimmermann, 1780)) originally from “d’Indo-Malaise” (= Indo-Malaya). The red muntjac is distributed in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, where it has been listed as a non-endangered species by the Malaysian Department of Wildlife and National Parks (PERHILITAN 2010, 2017).

Damalinia thompsoni (Bedford, 1936) Bedford (1936) described Damalinia thompsoni based on females collected from the Sumatran serow (Capricornis sumatraensis (Bechstein, 1799)) in Sumatra, Indonesia. Emerson (1964b) identified a male and females from the Formosan serow (Capricornis swinhoei Gray, 1862) in Taiwan as D. thompsoni, but the male from the type host was still unknown (Emerson, 1964b). Capricornis sumatraensis is distributed from the Himalayas to Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, and is listed as a vulnerable species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) (Phan et al. 2020).

Literature records of chewing lice (Phthiraptera) from mammals in Malaysia were checked and reviewed, resulting in a list of 13 confirmed species belonging to eight genera (Bovicola, Felicola, Gliricola, Gyropus, Haematomyzus, Heterodoxus, Lorisicola, Trichodectes) from four families (Boopiidae, Gyropidae, Haematomyzidae, Trichodectidae) in three suborders (Amblycera, Ischnocera, Rhynchophthirina). We present a checklist of those 13 chewing lice recorded from Peninsular Malaysia and Malaysian Borneo, including hosts, localities, and literature references. An additional 12 species are listed and discussed as possibly occurring in this country. A host-louse list is also given.

Type host: “House dog”, presumably Canis lupus familiaris Linnaeus, 1758 —Domestic dog. Type locality: Kalahari Desert, Southern Africa. Malaysian hosts: Canis lupus familiaris, Felis catus Linnaeus, 1758. Malaysian localities: Kuala Nerang, Pendang (Kedah) Peninsular Malaysia (Tay et al. 2014); Georgetown (Pulau Pinang) Peninsular Malaysia (Norhidayu et al. 2012); Keningau, Kota Kinabalu, Penampang, Tambunan, Tamparuli, Tuaran & Ranau (Sabah) Malaysian Borneo (Wells et al. 2012); Samarahan (Sarawak) Malaysian Borneo (Ahmad 2013); Ampang (Selangor) Peninsular Malaysia (Tay et al. 2014); “West Malaysia ”, Peninsular Malaysia (Mustaffa-Babjee 1969). Geographical distribution: Worldwide except Europe, New Zealand and Antarctica; more prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions. Remarks: Heterodoxus spiniger is a species from an Australian marsupial (Kéler 1971), which has widely transferred to dogs, other canids and civets (Price & Graham 1997; Price et al. 2003; Durden 2019). However, a number of studies in Singapore and Peninsular Malaysia have reported infestations of this louse species on domestic cats (Colless 1959; Norhidayu et al. 2012; Mohd-Zain et al. 2013). Colless (1959) concluded that the transmission of H. spiniger to cats was a result of their close contact with dogs, but not due to change of host preference or host adaptation. This statement was further supported by Norhidayu et al. (2012), commenting that the long time gap between their discovery and Colless’s (1959) report implied that it was a rare occurrence. However, Price & Graham (1997) argued that the infestation of H. spiniger on cats was well-established instead of accidental. Heterodoxus spiniger is known as the intermediate host of several helminthes, most notably the double-pored tapeworm Dipylidium caninum (Linnaeus, 1758) (see Norhidayu et al. 2012), and the filarial nematode Acanthocheilonema reconditum (Grassi, 1889) (see Nelson 1962), although the latter is not known to injure its canine hosts seriously (Price & Graham 1997). Mokhtar et al. (2011) reported Bartonella henselae (Regnery et al., 1992) from H. spiniger using PCR assays. Conversely, Tay et al. (2014) detected no rickettsial pathogens from field collected H. spiniger in multiple locations in Peninsular Malaysia., Published as part of Kazim, Abdul-Rahman, Houssaini, Jamal, Tappe, Dennis & Heo, Chong-Chin, 2023, An annotated checklist of the chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Ischnocera, Amblycera Rhynchophthirina) from domestic and wild mammals in Malaysia, pp. 40-60 in Zootaxa 5263 (1) on pages 43-44, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5263.1.2, http://zenodo.org/record/7797797, {"references":["Enderlein, G.

Tricholipeurus indicus Werneck, 1950 Werneck (1950) described the adult male and female of Tricholipeurus indicus from the Indian muntjac (Muntiacus muntjak, but expressed doubt about the identity of the type host because T. indicus belonged in a group of species from the Americas. However, Price et al. (2003) listed Reeve’s muntjac (Muntiacus reevesi Ogilby, 1839) as an additional host of T. indicus, a mammal which also occurs in eastern Asia. As stated above under Damalinia muntiaca, the red muntjac is distributed in Southeast Asia, including Malaysia. Considering that Malaysian researchers have frequently studied the ectoparasites of small mammals (Mariana et al. 2005, 2008; Madinah et al. 2011, 2013, 2014; Mohd-Taib et al. 2021), it is highly recommended that future parasite surveys should focus on large mammals, such as muntjacs, to determine whether Tricholipeurus indicus is present in Malaysia., Published as part of Kazim, Abdul-Rahman, Houssaini, Jamal, Tappe, Dennis & Heo, Chong-Chin, 2023, An annotated checklist of the chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Ischnocera, Amblycera Rhynchophthirina) from domestic and wild mammals in Malaysia, pp. 40-60 in Zootaxa 5263 (1) on page 51, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5263.1.2, http://zenodo.org/record/7797797, {"references":["Werneck, F.

Considering that studies of B. bovis in Malaysia are scarce, it is imperative to investigate the prevalence of this species from livestock, as B. bovis is known to affect cattle hide quality and cause a number of deteriorating symptoms, such as anemia and malnutrition (Durden 2019)., Published as part of Kazim, Abdul-Rahman, Houssaini, Jamal, Tappe, Dennis & Heo, Chong-Chin, 2023, An annotated checklist of the chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Ischnocera, Amblycera Rhynchophthirina) from domestic and wild mammals in Malaysia, pp. 40-60 in Zootaxa 5263 (1) on page 45, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5263.1.2, http://zenodo.org/record/7797797, {"references":["Linnaeus, C.
