Due to an unfortunate oversight, the statement in Sect. 6.

A new Anthracoidea species, A. songorica, is described on Carex songorica (subgen. Carex, sect. Paludosae) from Iran.

McKay and Dennett’s description of beliefs, and misbeliefs in particular, is a commendable contribution to the literature, but we argue that referring to beliefs as adaptive or maladaptive can cause conceptual confusion. “Adaptive” is inconsistently defined in the article, which adds to confusion and renders it difficult to evaluate the claims, particularly the possibility of “adaptive misbelie...

Section Gamosepalum has been reported from Turkey for the first time by Dudley. In recent years, several species of this section were reported as new records for Iran. Four species of Alyssum section are tranfered from sect. Alyssum to sect. Gamosepalum with considering of important characters in each section. These changes made two synonymies. Five species of Gamosepalum section including A. l...

An electric field partly lifts the degeneracies of atomic energy levels. This splitting was observed by Stark [1] and explained by Schrödinger [2]. We compute the Stark effect on atomic hydrogen using perturbation theory by diagonalizing the perturbation term in the N-fold degenerate multiplet of states with principal quantum number N . We exploit the symmetries of this problem to simplify the ...
