The easternmost record of Macratria Newman, 1838 from Fiji is presented, and M. fijiana sp. nov. described illustrated. Biogeographical patterns diversity Pacific Macratriinae are briefly discussed. Additionally, a new genus rank synonymy in proposed: Thambospasta Werner, 1974 syn. Salimuzzamania Abdullah, 1968. New combination made for howdeni (Werner, 1974) comb. (from Thambospasta).

Acquiring and enriching lexical resources is cruciel for various areas of the computational linguistics applications, espcially in specialised domains. In this paper, we propose a high-quality method exploiting the compositionality of complex terms issued from a structured terminology. to infer synonymy and hierarchical relations between words or terms. The approach has been applied and evaluat...

synonymy is a common phenomenon among different languages. the linguists of the world have had various views about it. thus, first this issue is put to survey among arabic linguists and then its scope in the holy qur’ān is discussed. the phenomenon of synonymy has its proponents and opponents, each having their own reasons. this disagreement stems from the lack of a comprehensive and exclusive ...

To resolve problems of identity and synonymy of CuZex (MeZanoconion) taeniopus Dyar and Knab 1907, epanastasis Dyar 1922, crybda Dyar 1924, opisthopus Komp 1926 and pseudotaeniopus Galindo and Blanton 1954, a detailed study and comparison of the types and other identified specimens at the U. S. National Museum, and a critical review of the original and subsequent descriptions have been made. As...

We examine a naming game with two agents trying to establish a common vocabulary for n objects. Such efforts lead to the emergence of language that allows for an efficient communication and exhibits some degree of homonymy and synonymy. Although homonymy reduces the communication efficiency, it seems to be a dynamical trap that persists for a long, and perhaps indefinite, time. On the other han...

This paper proposes an algebraic way of sentence valuations in a semiring. Actually, throughout the paper only valuations in the ring of integers with usual addition and multiplication are considered. These valuations take into consideration both words and their positions within the sentences. Two synonymy relations, with respect to a given valuation, are introduced. All sentences that are syno...

This article investigates the extent to which synonymy blocking occurs in the synchronic derivation and, more controversially, whether it is predicted by the Elsewhere Condition (‘EC’). It argues that in current Lexical Morphology, EC accurately predicts the presence of ‘ token blocking’ and the absence of ‘ type blocking’, that apparent token-blocking failure is due either to non-synonymy or t...

The distribution of Apteroloma anglorossicum (Semenov, 1890), A. harmandi (Portevin, 1903) and A. sillemi Jeannel, 1935 in central Asia and along the Himalayas is summarized, and the collecting circumstances and ecology of all three species from Gilgit District, Pakistan are described in detail. Revised diagnoses of all three species are provided, habitus and important morphological structures ...

The monotypic genus Horciniella Miller, 1958 is considered a junior synonym of Archilestidium Breddin, 1900 (new synonymy), resulting in the following taxonomic change for its type species: Archilestidium variabile (Miller, 1958) (new combination). The evidence supporting this conclusion and the new composition of the genus are discussed at length. Updated keys to the reduviine genera of Austra...
