It can be recognized by the shape of the aedeagus, the median lobe is much shorter than in N. insignitus (Fig. 8B) and N. patamona (Fig. 8D), and slightly longer than in N. lohezi (Fig. 8F). The margins of the median lobe are sinuate with a widening in the middle length, this differs in the other species where the margins are slightly straight. Moreover, the apex is slightly narrow and rounded, this differs in N. insignitus with acute apex, N. patamona with rounded and wide apex and N. lohezi with blunt apex.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size and form: Body length 1.7-2 mm. Body form elongate oval, moderately convex in lateral view (Fig. 4A). Color and punctation: Dorsally bicolor, head brown, frons dark brown; pronotum yellow with two small black round spots along posterior margin; elytra dark brown, elytra margins paler (Fig. 4A). Ventrally brown; maxillary palps, mouthparts, and antennae yellow (antennal club slightly darker), pro legs yellow, meso and meta legs pale brown. Clypeus and labrum with dense, fine, and weakly impressed ground punctation (punctures separated by 2 × their width); pronotum and elytra ground punctation fine, weakly impressed and sparser than on head (punctures separated by 3-4 × their width). Head: Clypeus and labrum shallowly emarginate anteromedially, lateral margins of the labrum bearing setae. Thorax: Prosternum carinate medially, strongly raised, acute and pointing anteriorly. Elevation of mesoventrite with two transversal ridges, elevated medially, lateral sides concave; longitudinal ridge broad anteriorly and sharp posteriorly, the point where the three ridges merged wide and blunt (Fig. 10D); elevation flat in ventral view; mesoventrite with triangular shape in ventral view. Metaventrite convex in the median region, pubescent with narrow glabrous patch on the medial and posterolateral area; anterior margin extending to mesoventrite elevation. Metafemora with dense hydrofuge pubescence along basal three-quarters of the anterior margin and sparse pubescence along the entire basal posterior margin. Abdomen: Abdominal ventrites very densely pubescent. Aedeagus (Fig. 8A) with basal piece 0.7 × the length of a paramere. Base of the parameres slightly narrower than the base of the median lobe; outer margin convex, inner margins along basal two-thirds slightly convex, apical third straight; apex of parameres slightly acute, pointing inwards. Median lobe shorter than the parameres, wide at basal region, narrowing in the midlength, then sinuate, apex slightly acute; gonopore situated at the apex of median lobe.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>The name derived from the Latin words bi meaning two and color meaning hue, referring to the dorsal coloration of the species. This species has yellow coloration in the pronotum and black in the elytra.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Known from two localities in central Suriname: Kabalebo and the summit of Tafelberg Tepui (Fig. 15).</p><p>Life history.</p><p>At Kabalebo, this species was collected in several streams, including both along the margin, rock pools with detritus in the creek bed, and in seepage habitats (Fig. 12D). At Tafelberg, the species was collected along a rocky creek margin with detritus.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/8F682BCCD00D5DED925904BB1E03B143	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

It can be distinguished only by its aedeagus, including the unique shape of the parameres with a depression of the inner margin, as well as by the abrupt narrowing in the midlength of the median lobe (Fig. 7D).</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size and form: Body length 1.7-1.9 mm. Body form elongate oval, convex in lateral view (Fig. 4I). Color and punctation: Dorsally yellow, head yellow; pronotum paler than elytra, with two small black round spots along posterior margin (Fig. 4I). Ventrally brown; maxillary palps, mouthparts, antennae (antennal club slightly darker) and legs yellow. Clypeus and labrum with dense, fine, and weakly impressed ground punctation (punctures separated by 2 × their width); pronotum and elytra with ground punctation fine, weakly impressed and sparser than on head (punctures separated by 3 × their width). Head: Clypeus and labrum shallowly emarginate anteromedially, lateral margins of the labrum bearing setae. Thorax: Prosternum carinate medially, strongly raised, pointing anteriorly and acute. Elevation of mesoventrite with one transversal ridge, elevated medially, lateral sides concave; longitudinal ridge sharp, the point where the two ridges merged rounded and obtuse (e.g., Fig. 10A, B); elevation flat in lateral view; mesoventrite with triangular shape in ventral view. Metaventrite convex in the median region, pubescent with narrow glabrous patch on the medial and posterolateral area, medial region patch drop-shaped; anterior margin extending to mesoventrite elevation. Metafemora densely covered with hydrofuge pubescence on basal three-quarters. Abdomen: Abdominal ventrites very densely pubescent. Aedeagus (Fig. 7D) with basal piece nearly the same length of a paramere. Base of the parameres slightly narrower than the base of the median lobe; outer margins sinuate, inner margins depressed in the midlength, depression extending to apex without reaching it; apex of parameres wide and blunt. Median lobe length almost equal to the parameres, wide at basal region, narrowing abruptly in the midlength, apical third slender, narrow, and rounded.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>L. M. González-Rodríguez names this species in honor of Juan José Giraldo Gutiérrez in gratitude for the encouragement and support in her career.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>Known from several localities in the Brazilian States of Rondonia and Mato Grosso do Sul (Fig. 14).</p><p>Life history.</p><p>This species was collected along the margins of two adjacent streams, one with a sandy bottom and one with a rocky bottom (Fig. 13A). Specimens were collected by agitating the sand and detritus along the stream margin as well as washing root mats in tubs of water.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/DE5FE26820BA5CAAB1C52315B54C204C	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

It can also be differentiated by sharply marked punctation of the pronotum and elytra. Moreover, the outer margin of the parameres is sinuate and the apical third is slim and tapered. It is the only species in the Notionotus liparus group with the apex of the median lobe acute.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size and form: Body length 1.6-1.8 mm. Body form elongate oval, convex in lateral view (Fig. 2A). Color and punctation: Dorsally black, with lateral margins of the pronotum and elytra reddish brown (Fig. 2A). Ventrally reddish brown, except for black abdominal ventrites; maxillary palps and antennae yellow (antennal club slightly darker) (Fig. 2B). Clypeus and labrum with dense, coarse, and moderately impressed ground punctation (punctures separated by 2 × their width); pronotum and elytra ground punctation dense, coarse, and moderately impressed and sparser than on head (punctures separated by 3 × their width). Head: Clypeus and labrum shallowly emarginate anteromedially, lateral margins of the labrum bearing setae. Thorax: Prosternum carinate medially, strongly raised, pointing anteriorly and acute. Elevation of mesoventrite with one transversal ridge, elevated medially, lateral sides concave; longitudinal ridge narrowed anteriorly and broadening posteriorly, the point where the two ridges merged blunt (e.g., Fig. 10A, B); elevation concave in lateral view; mesoventrite with triangular shape in ventral view. Metaventrite convex in the median region, pubescent with narrow glabrous patch on the medial and posterolateral area; anterior margin extending to mesoventrite elevation. Metafemora with dense hydrofuge pubescence along basal three-quarters of the anterior margin and along basal one-quarter of posterior margin, then apical half of the posterior margin with sparse setae (Fig. 2B). Abdomen: Abdominal ventrites very densely pubescent. Aedeagus (Fig. 7A) with basal piece 1.3 × the length of a paramere. Base of the parameres slightly narrower than the base of the median lobe; outer margin sinuate, inner margin nearly straight, tapering along apical third, parameres thin and rounded at apex. Median lobe shorter than the parameres, broad at the base and gradually widening to the apex, with the apex acute.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>This species is widespread in the Mérida Andes and Coastal Mountains of Venezuela (Fig. 14). Originally described from localities in the Venezuelan states of Barinas and Mérida (Spangler 1972, it was later recorded from the state of Aragua ( García 2000). Here, we report additional localities in these three states as well as report it from the state of Trujillo for the first time.</p><p>Life history.</p><p>This species is found in rock seepage habitats and wet rocks adjacent to waterfalls (Fig. 11A, B). Occasionally it is found in the pools that form at the best of these habitats.</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>We sequenced four specimens from three Venezuelan states across the range of this species (Aragua, Barinas, and Mérida). The sequences are nearly identical (Fig. 1), supporting the concept of a widespread species in the Mérida Andes and Coastal mountains.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/C6FB4C8FF4BD572D8E23E641A3FBE08A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

It prefers gravelly or rocky streams, especially in the foothills where it may sometimes be abundant (Fig. 11C, D).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>We examined more than 155 specimens from a dozen localities of this species from Guatemala to several chains of the Venezuelan Andes. Although there are subtle variations in the apex of the aedeagal parameres, this variation is relatively small and not correlated to geography, other morphological characters, or molecular data. These subtle variations in paramere shape likely explain why this species has been described four times, once each from Guatemala and Panama (Perkins 1979) and twice from Venezuela ( García 2000). Three of these four species were described from single collecting events. However, with significantly more material available to us for this study from a range of additional localities, it is apparent these differences in paramere shape are more easily considered as intraspecific variation in a widespread, common species than as indicative of species boundaries. This hypothesis is also supported by available DNA evidence: we sequenced specimens from Costa Rica, the Serranía de Perijá, the Mérida Andes, as well as the Coastal mountains of Venezuela. All specimens form a clade (Fig. 1) with a maximum pairwise divergence in COI of 3.9% (although we only had COI data from specimens from several Venezuelan localities). However, 28S sequence data from specimens from Venezuela and Costa Rica are identical, further supporting the concept of a single, widespread species. In addition, specimens throughout its range were found in very similar habitats: leaf packs or detrital margins of streams with a gravel or rocky substrate</p><p>As both N. nucleus and N. tricarinatus were proposed in the same work (Perkins 1979), we use our authority as first revisors (ICZN article 24.2.2) to give precedence to N. tricarinatus as the valid name for this species.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/5F0EB05A0AD25303AF591B6F6E87EF8E	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

However, the shape of the aedeagus in N. dilucidus is quite distinct: the outer and inner margins of the parameres are sinuate, the apex of the parameres presents an indentation in which the depth can vary from very deep, slightly deep, or almost not distinguishable and pointing outwards (Fig. 5A-J).</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size and form: Body length 1.6-1.8 mm. Body form elongate oval, moderately convex in lateral view (e.g., Fig. 2D). Color and punctation: Dorsally yellow to pale brown, head mostly yellow and frons pale brown; pronotum paler than elytra, with two small black round spots along posterior margin (e.g., Fig. 2D). Ventrally brown; maxillary palps and antennae yellow (antennal club slightly darker), mouth parts and legs pale brown. Clypeus and labrum with dense, fine, and weakly impressed ground punctation (punctures separated by 1-2 × their width); pronotum and elytra with ground punctation fine, weakly impressed and sparser than on head (punctures separated by 3 × their width). Head: Clypeus and labrum shallowly emarginate anteromedially, lateral margins of the labrum bearing setae. Thorax: Prosternum carinate medially, strongly raised, pointing anteriorly and acute. Elevation of mesoventrite with one transversal ridge, elevated medially, lateral sides concave; longitudinal ridge sharp, the point where the two ridges merged rounded and obtuse (Fig. 10A); elevation flat in lateral view; mesoventrite with triangular shape in ventral view. Metaventrite convex in the median region, pubescent with narrow glabrous patch on the medial and posterolateral area, medial region patch drop-shaped; anterior margin extending to mesoventrite elevation. Metafemora densely covered with hydrofuge pubescence on basal three-quarters (e.g., Fig. 2E). Abdomen: Abdominal ventrites very densely pubescent. Aedeagus (Fig. 5A) basal piece nearly the same length of a paramere. Base of the parameres slightly narrower than the base of the median lobe; outer margins sinuate, tapering almost reaching the apex, inner margins sinuate, apex of the parameres slightly bending outwards, rounded in the outer margin with an indentation in the inner margin (the depth of the indentation varies, Fig. 5A-J). Median lobe nearly as long as the parameres or a bit longer, broad at the base and gradually narrowing to the apex, apex of the median lobe rounded.</p><p>Variation.</p><p>There is significant variation in the apex of the parameres of the aedeagus. The paramere tip is weakly sclerotized, as evidenced by its very pale to white appearance in cleared specimens (e.g., Fig. 5A-J). This tip varies from nearly evenly rounded (e.g., Fig. 5D, G) to possessing some level of indentation on the inner margin (e.g., Fig. 5A, H). Although this variation seems in part to be real, it also seems to be partly caused by artificial distortions; for example, the weakly sclerotized apex may become indented or inflated depending on the state of the genitalia during preparation. This would explain why there is a large variation in form as well as why the tip appears to be exhibit subtly asymmetry between parameres (e.g., Fig. 5C, F).</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>This species is widely distributed throughout the Guiana Shield region, from Tobogán de la Selva in Venezuela east to the coast of French Guiana (Fig. 15). Reported from Suriname in Short and Kadosoe (2011) and Short (2013; as N. shorti) and from Guyana as Notionotus sp. B in Short et al. (2018).</p><p>Life history.</p><p>This species is the most common and abundant species of the genus in the Guiana Shield region and is frequently collected in leaf packs or along the margins of forested streams. They are typically found in streams that are lined with detritus and have rocky or sandy substrates. Although some specimens have been collected in seepage-like habitats or adjacent to seepages, this does not seem to be a primary or favored habitat for this species.</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Queney (2010) described N. dilucidus based on specimens from several closely situated localities in French Guiana, and N. shorti based on a long series of specimens from a single collecting event in Guyana. The primary feature used to separate the two taxa was the apex of the parameters, which was given as "parameres apically shortly curved outwards" in N. dilucidus and "parameres apically almost straight" in N. shorti . We examined material from the type series of both species and confirmed there are notable differences in the paramere shape. If we only had access to the specimens that Queney (2010) examined and no other data, we also would have very likely concluded they were different species and described them as such. However, as we examined recently collected specimens from numerous other localities in the eastern Guiana Shield, we observed quite a bit of variation in the shape of the parameres that encompassed the forms present in N. dilucidus and N. shorti . In some cases, we noticed variation in this feature even among specimens from the same series. Additionally, the apex of the paramere even occasionally appears slightly asymmetrical in some dissections (e.g., Fig. 5F, J).</p><p>To help interpret these morphological observations, we sequenced 22 specimens that span the entire width of the Guiana Shield, including specimens from Venezuela, Brazil, Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana. These specimens also represented a range of paramere form diversity. In general, we found little meaningful molecular divergence among these populations (Fig. 1) and these differences were not correlated to observed variations in the paramere apex. Therefore, we here consider N. shorti as a junior subjective synonym of N. dilucidus .</p><p>Among all sequenced specimens, the maximum pairwise divergence in the gene COI was 6.0%. Although this is on the higher end of intraspecific divergence observed in hydrophilids, it is seen in some taxa (see Short and Girón 2018; Smith and Short 2020). Additionally, given that its geographic range spans 1500 kilometers, it is not surprising to see such divergences. The two Venezuelan populations (from Tobogán de Selva in Amazonas State and the Escalera region of Bolívar State) were the most genetically distinct and sister to the more eastern populations. Indeed, with these samples removed, the maximum intraspecific divergence among remaining specimens drops to just 3.8%. However, we did not observe any significant morphological differences from these Venezuelan populations and therefore consider them to be part of a broader definition of N. dilucidus .</p><p>As both N. dilucidus and N. shorti were proposed in the same work (Queney 2010), we use our authority as first revisors (ICZN article 24.2.2) to give precedence to N. dilucidus as the valid name for this species.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/5BD081ADE949546CA1603FEFBEAAACE9	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Color yellow, reddish brown, dark and pale brown to black. Body shape oval in dorsal view; moderately convex to convex in lateral view. Antennae with eight antennomeres. Maxillary palps short, nearly half the width of the head, second segment bending outwards, apical segment ~ 2 × as long as the penultimate segment (Fig. 4J; e.g., N. bifidus sp. nov.). Eyes reniform in dorsal view. Clypeus and labrum shallowly emarginate anteromedially, lateral margins of the labrum bearing setae. Head, pronotum and elytra with ground and systematic punctures; systematic punctures of the head very sparse. The elytral ground punctation is more evident in some species (Fig. 2A; e.g., N. liparus) than in others (Fig. 4G; e.g., N. garciae sp. nov.); systematic punctures extremely reduce and sparse detectable for short seta, forming very sparse rows (Fig. 4B; e.g., N. patamona sp. nov.); elytra without sutural stria. Prosternum carinate medially, strongly raised, and projected anteromedially. Elevation of mesoventrite strongly raised forming an anteromedial carina consisting of one (Fig. 10A, B) or two longitudinal ridges and one transverse (Fig. 10C, D), extending between procoxae on the same plane as metaventrite. Metaventrite densely pubescent, slightly elevated, with elevation broad posteromedially and convex medially forming a glabrous patch drop-shaped; and two posterolateral glabrous patches in a half-circle shape. Pro- and mesofemora mostly covered with pubescence on basal three-quarters (Fig. 3B; e.g., N. tricarinatus); metafemora with pubescence, sometimes on basal three-quarters, or along basal three-quarters of the anterior margin with some setae on the posterior basal margin (Fig. 2H; e.g., N. rosalesi). Abdominal ventrites densely pubescent, with fifth ventrite bearing an apical emargination to shallowly truncate. Aedeagus trilobed, size and form variable.</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>As this revision only treats the New World species, we did not comprehensively examine the Old World species to generate a global genus description. Therefore, the diagnosis above should be considered for Neotropical species only. The Old World species of Notionotus are generally similar to the New World species, but some species do differ in significant characters: for example, N. suturalis Hebaeur, 2003 has a sutural stria and antennae with 9 antennomeres.</p><p>Remarks of diagnostic features of Notionotus Spangler, 1972.</p><p>Body shape and coloration. The degree of convexity between species is variable; some are moderately convex, others weakly convex. The general dorsal coloration of the body among species ranges from yellow (e.g., N. tricarinatus, Fig. 3A) to nearly black (e.g., N. liparus, Fig. 2A), however color alone is usually not sufficient on its own to definitively identify most Notionotus species. This is due both to the fact that some species share the same coloration, as well as some species have a slight variation in dorsal coloration. Species with unique (so far as currently known) color patterns include N. liparus (entirely dark brown to black, Fig. 2A), N. rosalesi (tricolored, Fig. 2G) and N. insignitus sp. nov. (with pale spot on the elytral disc Fig. 4D). The coloration of the head in some species is uniform, but in others is bicolorous (with typically the frons being darker than the clypeus).</p><p>Mesoventrite. In Notionotus the elevation of the mesoventrite is composed of two or three laminae: one transverse ridge and one longitudinal (Fig. 10A, B) or two transverse ridges and one longitudinal ridge (Fig. 10C, D), which generally converge and fuse medially; the shape of the longitudinal ridge shows high variation among species. In general, the transverse ridges are medially elevated and laterally concave. The apex of the transverse ridge can be nearly acute (Fig. 10B), or blunt (Fig. 10C), and lateral sides vary from very to slightly concave or straight. The longitudinal ridge varies, it can be completely sharp or sharp anteriorly and broadening posteriorly reaching the end of the elevation, but it can also be broad anteriorly and sharp posteriorly. The point where the two or three ridges merged can be rounded and obtuse or wide and blunt respectively.</p><p>Elytral punctation. The density of the ground punctation is typically sparse, and the degree of impression is variable between species within the genus. In some species, the ground punctation is very weakly impressed and may almost appear absent and low magnification (Fig. 4H; e.g., N. vatius sp. nov.); in other cases, it is more coarse and moderately impressed (Fig. 4E; e.g., N. juma sp. nov.).</p><p>Aedeagus. The shape of the aedeagus is the most important and often crucial feature to identify species of Notionotus . Most species in the Neotropics exhibit two different generalized aedeagal forms: in some species, the median lobe and basal piece have the same length, or the median lobe is slightly longer than the parameres (e.g., N. tricarinatus, Fig. 6A). However, some species present the median lobe and basal lobe that are shorter than the parameres (e.g., N. bicolor sp. nov. (Fig. 8A), N. retusus sp. nov. (Fig. 8E), N. parvus sp. nov. (Fig. 9E)). In terms of shape, some species present variation in the apex of the median lobe, this is usually rounded (e.g., N. patamona sp. nov., Fig. 8D), but it varies from acute (e.g., N. liparus, Fig. 7A), emarginated (e.g., N. juma, Fig. 8G), and bifurcated (e.g., N. bifidus sp. nov., Fig. 9D). Additionally, the width of the median lobe varies from very slender (e.g., N. giraldoi, Fig. 7D) to very wide (e.g., N. bifidus, Fig. 9D). Nevertheless, in most of the species, the median lobe is wide at the base and slightly narrowing towards the apex.</p><p>Notionotus liparus species group</p><p>Diagnosis.</p><p>The species of this group can be diagnosed by the following combination of characters: (1) the shape of the elevation mesoventrite, having one transverse ridge and one longitudinal ridge (Fig. 10A, B); (2) parameres nearly as long as the basal piece; the length of the median lobe and the length of the parameres is approximately subequal. (e.g., Notionotus liparus, Fig. 7A).</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/90490B357B285A32B923C50F04517D50	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply. See Agosti, D., Egloff, W., 2009.

In addition, the shape of aedeagus, especially the apex of the parameres is broad, blunt, and pointing slightly outwards, and the gonopore has rounded shape and it is situated at midlength of median lobe.</p><p>Description.</p><p>Size and form: Body length 1.7-2.3 mm. Body form elongate oval, strongly convex in lateral view (Fig. 4H). Color and punctation: Dorsally brown, head mostly brown, frons and medial region of the clypeus dark brown, lateral side of the clypeus pale brown; pronotum pale brown with two small black round spots along posterior margin, elytra dark brown (Fig. 4H). Ventrally dark brown; maxilla, maxillary palps, antennae (antennal club slightly darker) yellow, legs pale brown. Clypeus and labrum with dense, fine, and weakly impressed ground punctation (punctures separated by 2 × their width); pronotum and elytra ground punctation fine, weakly impressed and sparser than on head (punctures separated by 3 × their width). Head: Clypeus and labrum shallowly emarginate anteromedially, lateral margins of the labrum bearing setae. Thorax: Prosternum carinate medially, strongly raised, pointing anteriorly and acute. Elevation of mesoventrite with one transversal ridge, elevated medially, lateral sides concave; longitudinal ridge sharp, the point where the two ridges merged rounded and obtuse (e.g., Fig. 10B); elevation flat in lateral view; mesoventrite with triangular shape in ventral view. Metaventrite convex in the median region, pubescent with narrow glabrous patch on the medial and posterolateral area, medial region patch drop-shaped; anterior margin extending to mesoventrite elevation. Metafemora densely covered with hydrofuge pubescence on basal three-quarters. Abdomen: Abdominal ventrites very densely pubescent. Aedeagus (Fig. 7C) with basal piece nearly the same length as a paramere. Base of the parameres slightly narrower than the base of the median lobe; outer and inner margins sinuate; apex of parameres wide and blunt, pointing outwards. Median lobe of the same length as the parameres, wide at basal region, narrowing in the midlength, then widening along at apical third, apex rounded; gonopore with rounded shape and situated at midlength of median lobe.</p><p>Etymology.</p><p>The name is derived from the Latin word vatius meaning bent outwards, after the form of the parameres slightly pointing outwards of the aedeagus.</p><p>Distribution.</p><p>This species is known from several localities in Bahia and Mato Grosso do Sul States in Brazil (Fig. 14).</p><p>Life history.</p><p>This species was collected on seepages and along the margins of rocky streams (Fig. 13B).</p><p>Remarks.</p><p>Although the known localities of this species are widely dispersed in Brazil, they are from similar habitats at similar elevations on the Brazilian Shield. Moreover, the specimens from Bahia and Mato Grosso do Sul states are less than 3% divergent in uncorrected pairwise distances in COI.</p><p>Notionotus lohezi species group</p><p>Diagnosis. The Notionotus lohezi species group can be distinguishable by the presence of three ridges in the elevation of the mesoventrite, two transverse ridge and one longitudinal (Fig. 10C, D); the basal piece is shorter than the parameres, the length of the median lobe is shorter than the parameres.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/BCB825EF80255E7EBCD5C4220D99CE9A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
