<i>Polistes Dominulus</i> (Hymenoptera: Vespidae) Found in Michigan

The Great Lakes Entomologist (2017)

Timothy M. Judd James M. Carpenter

On 25 May 1995, a single foundress colony of Polistes dominulus (Christ) was discovered on a study site at Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan (Oakland County). This is the first record of Polistes dominulus in the state of Michigan.

ON WEIGHTING AND CONGRUENCE

Cladistics (1996)

Marc W. Allard James M. Carpenter

Abstract — A priori differential weighting of molecular characters is a common methodological practice in molecular phylogenetics and evolution. This has been a largely subjective exercise with few criteria for deciding which characters to down‐weight and how much to do so. A priori differential weighting is conducted to remove heterogeneity from the data sets and to improve the congruence among the informative, and usually more conservative characters. Herein, we test whether congruence is improved with a priori differential weighting by using the incongruence length difference test on a linked genetic data set consisting of 14 mammalian taxa and the 13 protein coding genes of the mitochondrial genome. Weighting by omitting the third codon position did not improve congruence with respect to the equally weighted data, while weighting transversions did improve the congruence between the 13 protein coding genes. Nonetheless, the most parsimonious tree found from transversion weighting did not differ from one using all of the data equally weighted.

Simultaneous analysis of the basal lineages of Hymenoptera (Insecta) using sensitivity analysis

Cladistics (2002)

Susanne Schulmeister Ward C. Wheeler James M. Carpenter

Abstract The first simultaneous analysis of molecular and morphological data of basal hymenopterans that includes exemplars from all families is presented. DNA sequences (of approximately 2000–2700 bp for each taxon) from the nuclear genes 18S and 28S and the mitochondrial genes 16S and CO1 have been sequenced for 39 taxa (four outgroup taxa, 29 symphytans, and six apocritans). These DNA sequences and 236 morphological characters from Vihelmsen [Zool. J. Linnean Soc. 131 (2001) 393] were analyzed separately as well as simultaneously. All analyses were performed on unaligned sequences, using the optimization alignment (= direct optimization) method. Sensitivity analysis sensu Wheeler [Syst. Biol. 44 (1995) 321] was applied by analyzing the data under nine different combinations of analysis parameter values. The superfamily level relationships of basal hymenopterans as proposed by Vilhelmsen [Zool. J. Linnean Soc. 131 (2001) 393] and Ronquist et al. [Zool. Scr. 28 (1999) 13] are mostly confirmed, except that Pamphilioidea is the sister group to Tenthredinoidea s.l. and that Anaxyelidae (i.e., Syntexis libocedrii ) and Siricidae are supported as a monophyletic group, partly reestablishing the traditional concept of Siricoidea. The resulting hypothesis that best represents the combined evidence from morphology and DNA sequences is (Xyeloidea (Tenthredinoidea s.l. Pamphilioidea) (Cephoidea (Siricoidea (Xiphydrioidea (Orussidae Apocrita))))), with Siricoidea = Anaxyelidae +Siricidae. The phylogenetic system within Tenthredinoidea s.l., derived from the combined evidence, is (Blasticotomidae (Tenthredinidae including Diprionidae (Cimbicidae (Argidae Pergidae)))).

Intramural intestinal hematoma causing obstruction in three dogs

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association (1984)

Ronda Moore James M. Carpenter

Summary Intramural hematoma of the intestine caused intestinal obstruction in three dogs. Two dogs were examined because of vomiting and anorexia of several weeks' duration. In one of these, an intramural hematoma of the duodenum was associated with chronic pancreatitis. A cause was not found in the second dog. The third dog, which had clinical and radiographic evidence of gastric dilatation, was found at surgery to have hemoperitoneum associated with a ruptured intramural intestinal hematoma. In 1 dog, the hematoma was evacuated through a serosal incision. In the other 2 dogs, the problem was resolved by resection of the involved segment of intestine, followed by anastomosis. All 3 dogs recovered without complications.

Cladistic analysis ofCharterginusFox, 1898 (Hymenoptera, Vespidae, Epiponini). A neotropical genus of social wasps

Journal of Natural History (2009)

Sérgio R. Andena Fernando Barbosa Noll James M. Carpenter

A cladistic analysis of the swarm‐founding neotropical social wasp genus Charterginus is presented. A single cladogram resulted from the analysis of 31 morphological characters and six nest characters, with relationships among the species as follows: ((C. fulvus + C. xanthura) + (C. weyrauchi + (C. nevermanni + (C. carinatus + C. zavattarii)))). The monophyly of the genus is confirmed and a new identification key is presented. Notes on the nest are given and the misidentification of C. carinatus is explained.
