Annotated catalogue of primate type specimens in the mammal collection of the Museum of Natural History Vienna

Die vorliegende Arbeit ist der erste kommentierter Katalog der Primatentypen des Naturhistorischen Museums Wien. Von allen aufgefunden Typen wurde der taxonomische und nomenklatorische Status erhoben. Insgesamt konnten 110 Typusexemplare (15 Holotypen, 71 Syntypen, 8 Lectotypen, 1 Paratypus und 15 Paralectotypen) aus 46 nominalen Taxa gefunden werden. Ein geeigneter Typus von Lepilemur mustelinus rufescens wird für eine künftige Designation als Lectotypus vorgeschlagen. Die nominalen Taxa Cercopithecus toldti und Lasyopyga tantalus graueri werden mit Chlorocebus tantalus bzw. Chlorocebus cynosuros neu synonymisiert. Von den Namen Simia leukeurin, Macaco barriga und Simia polycomos wird gezeigt, dass sie keinen nomenklatorisch relevanten Status besitzen.For the first time an annotated catalogue of the primate type specimens in the mammal collection of the Naturhistorisches Museum Wien is presented. The nomenclatorial and taxonomic status of all traceable type specimens was evaluated. Altogether 110 type specimens (15 holotypes, 71 syntypes, 8 lectotypes, 1 paratype and 15 paralectotypes), representing 46 nominal taxa, could be encountered. A proposal for the designation of a lectotype for Lepilemur mustelinus rufescens is made. The nominal taxa Cercopithecus toldti and Lasyopyga tantalus graueri were found to be synonyms of Chlorocebus tantalus and Chlorocebus cynosuros respectively, contrary to previous presumptions. It is additionally shown that the names Simia leukeurin, Macaco barriga and Simia polycomos possess no nomenclatorial relevant status

Prediction of second neurological attack in patients with clinically isolated syndrome using support vector machines

The aim of this study is to predict the conversion from clinically isolated syndrome to clinically definite multiple sclerosis using support vector machines. The two groups of converters and non-converters are classified using features that were calculated from baseline data of 73 patients. The data consists of standard magnetic resonance images, binary lesion masks, and clinical and demographic information. 15 features were calculated and all combinations of them were iteratively tested for their predictive capacity using polynomial kernels and radial basis functions with leave-one-out cross-validation. The accuracy of this prediction is up to 86.4% with a sensitivity and specificity in the same range indicating that this is a feasible approach for the prediction of a second clinical attack in patients with clinically isolated syndromes, and that the chosen features are appropriate. The two features gender and location of onset lesions have been used in all feature combinations leading to a high accuracy suggesting that they are highly predictive. However, it is necessary to add supporting features to maximise the accuracy. © 2013 IEEE

Arvicola amphibius

<i>Arvicola amphibius</i> (Linnaeus, 1758) <p>Type locality: England.</p> <p> Notes: The oldest available species group name in the genus, which is based on large, orthodont and strictly aquatic water voles (Miller 1912) with 36 chromosomes. Precedence of <i>amphibius</i> over <i>terrestris</i> is legitimized by the Principle of the First Reviser (Article 24.2. of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature, 4th ed.) and follows Blasius (1857) (cf. Corbet 1978).</p>Published as part of <i>Kryštufek, Boris, Koren, Toni, Engelberger, Simon, Horváth, Győző F., Purger, Jenő J., Arslan, Atilla, Chişamera, Gabriel & Murariu, Dumitru, 2015, Fossorial morphotype does not make a species in water voles, pp. 293-303 in Mammalia (Warsaw, Poland) (Warsaw, Poland) 79 (3)</i> on page 300, DOI: 10.1515/mammalia-2014-0059, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/7858807">http://zenodo.org/record/7858807</a&gt

<i>Arvicola amphibius italicus</i> Savi, 1838 <p>Type locality: Vicinity of Pisa, Italy.</p> <p>Notes: Well-defined form of large, orthodont, and strictly aquatic water voles with 36 chromosomes.

Arvicola scherman

<i>Arvicola scherman</i> (Shaw, 1801) <p>Type locality: Strasbourg, Bas Rhin, Eastern France.</p> <p>Notes: Small and proodont water voles adapted to fossorial mode of life.
