Abstract:
The phylogenetic relationships of the chloropid tribe Elachipterini were analysed. Sixty-eight exemplar species and seven outgroup species were included in a cladistic analysis based on 76 morphological characters of adult specimens in order to test existing, non-phylogenetic, classifications of the tribe. Nine genera are recognized in the Elachipterini: Allomedeia Mlynarek & Wheeler, Alombus Becker, Anatrichus Loew, Ceratobarys Coquillett, Disciphus Becker, Elachiptera Macquart, Goniaspis Duda, Melanochaeta Bezzi and Sepsidoscinis Hendel. Myrmecosepsis Kertesz is synonymised with Anatrichus, and Togeciphus Nishijima and Cyrtomomyia Becker are synonymised with Elachiptera. Ceratobarys is removed from synonymy with Elachiptera and all Neotropical species and two Nearctic species previously assigned to Elachiptera are transferred to Ceratobarys. Melanochaeta is a valid genus; the type species Melanochaeta capreolus clusters with other species of Melanochaeta and not Oscinella. New combinations include Anatrichus hystrix (Kertesz, 1914) (Myrmecosepsis); Anatrichus taprobane (Andersson, 1977) (Myrmecosepsis), Ceratobarys attenuata (Adams, 1908) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys cultrata (Wheeler & Forrest, 2002) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys flavida (Williston, 1896) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys melinifrons (Mlynarek & Wheeler, 2008) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys fucosa (Mlynarek & Wheeler, 2008) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys queposana (Mlynarek & Wheeler, 2008) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys rubida (Becker, 1912) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys sacculicornis (Enderlein, 1911) (Elachiptera); Ceratobarys willistoni (Sabrosky, 1948) (Elachiptera), Elachiptera ensifer (Sabrosky, 1951) (Cyrtomomyia); Elachiptera ericius (Kanmiya, 1983) (Togeciphus); Elachiptera katoi (Nishijima, 1955) (Togeciphus); Elachiptera maculinervis (Becker, 1910) (Cyrtomomyia); Elachiptera punctulata (Becker, 1912) (Cyrtomomyia); Elachiptera subelongata (Kanmiya, 1983) (Disciphus); Elachiptera truncatus (Liu & Yang, 2012) (Togeciphus); Elachiptera tuberculata (Adams, 1905) (Cyrtomomyia) and all the species that were placed in Lasiochaeta are returned to Melanochaeta. A key to genera of the tribe Elachipterini is provided and diagnoses are provided for all genera. The tribe is divided into two geographically distinct clades: the Anatrichus clade includes the Old World tropical genera Allomedeia, Alombus, Anatrichus, Disciphus and Sepsidoscinis; the Elachiptera clade includes the primarily Neotropical genera Goniaspis and Ceratobarys and the widespread, but primarily Holarctic, genera Elachiptera and Melanochaeta.

Abstract:
Il lavoro riprende tutta la tradizione antica relativa alla figura di Onesicrito di Astipalea, storico, compagno dell’impresa indiana di Alessandro Magno e sul quale la storiografia moderna aveva maturato giudizi poco positivi sia per l’atteggiamento dichiaratamente encomiastico nei confronti del Macedone sia per l’infondatezza dei dati riferiti nella propria opera. Di questa sopravvivono, in effetti, pochi e scarni frammenti concernenti per la maggior parte aspetti geo – etnografici dell’India e trasmessi nelle expositiones geographicae di Plinio il Vecchio e di Strabone, in toni che sembrano dimostrare l’inattendibilità di Onesicrito-storico. La ricerca ha preso perciò le mosse proprio da una ricostruzione della personalità dell’autore, ricordato dalla tradizione antica come allievo di Diogene Cinico e al contempo entusiasta collaboratore di Alessandro, sicché la contraddizione tra aspetti tanto dissonanti ha costituito elemento di partenza per verificare l’attendibilità delle fonti e per proporre una nuova interpretazione dell’opera intitolata “Come Alessandro venne educato”: Il ruolo della formazione del sovrano costituisce infatti una chiave di lettura importante per interpretare i diversi aspetti dell’impresa di Alessandro, alcuni dei quali testimoniati solo da Onesicrito. A quest’ultimo va infatti riconosciuta la prima descrizione dell’isola di Taprobane (Sri Lanka) e una attenta esposizione di aspetti della flora e della fauna indiane, collegati alla localizzazione “estrema” dei luoghi raggiunti dal Macedone. Il lavoro, che è stato condotto su una analisi dei testi, filologicamente ricostruiti, tradotti e commentati, colma una lacuna negli studi sulla storiografia su Alessandro e sul pensiero geografico, tanto più essenziale in quanto dalla tradizione risalente a Onesicrito risultano dipendere concezioni, più o meno fondate o fortunate, sulla storia dei Greci in India e sulla concezione del subcontinente indiano nella geografia antica fino a Tolemeo.

Abstract:
Many Aspects of Different Cultures can help to throw light on their differing identities—language, architecture, religion, and many other things, such as the ‘range of landscapes, ways of thought, racial groups, roof-tops and cheeses’. In fact, almost anything. A particular category is provided by the institutions people observe, a category which might embrace an enormous range of different things, from burial practices to legal systems, or from different calendars to different systems of weights and measures. The link between coins, weights, and measures was clear to the Greeks and Romans, and that coins could be regarded as an expression of some at least of the values characteristic of a particular society is evident from an anecdote reported by Pliny as taking place in the reign of Claudius. He relates how a Roman was forced by a storm to Sri Lanka (ancient Taprobane), and how he told the local king about Rome: A freedman of Annius Plocamus, who had brought the tax collection for the Red Sea from the Treasury, was sailing round Arabia. He was carried along by winds from the north past Carmania and, on the fifteenth day, made harbour at Hippuros in the island; and in consequence of the kind hospitality of the king he learned the local language thoroughly over a period of six months, and afterwards in reply to his questions described the Romans and Caesar. In what he heard the king got a remarkably good idea of their honesty, because among the captured money there were denarii which were of equal weight, even though their various types indicated that they were issued by several persons. I want to apply this approach to the Roman world, and use coins in a way that may throw light on some of the ways that Romans regarded themselves, having a special look at the differences between the western and eastern parts of the empire. I want to suggest that we can use this sort of approach to help explain the fundamental change that took place in the currency of the Iberian peninsula, Gaul, Italy, Sicily, and Africa in the first century AD—how people there stopped using locally made coins and started to use coins imported from Rome, coins which might otherwise have been regarded in some sense as almost ‘foreign’.
