Trachylepis tschudii is an enigmatic skink, purportedly from Peru. First described in 1845 on the basis of a single specimen, it may be the same as the Noronha skink ("T. atlantica") from Fernando de Noronha, off northeastern Brazil. "T. tschudii" represents one of two doubtful records of the otherwise African genus "Trachylepis" on mainland South America; the other is "T. maculata" from Guyana.

3-Methylornithine is an amino acid with the formula HN(CH)CH(CH)CH(NH)COH. This amino acid contains two stereogenic centers, but only one stereoisomer (namely (3"R")-3-methyl--ornithine) occurs in nature. It is produced from lysine by the action of the enzyme methylornithine synthase. The combination of lysine and 3-methylornithine, also mediated enzymatically, produces pyrrolysine, which, for a few organisms, is a "22nd" genetically coded amino acid.

Time-resolved photon emission (TRPE) is used to measure timing waveforms on semiconductor devices. TRPE measurements are performed on the back side of the semiconductor device. The substrate of the device-under-test (DUT) must first be thinned mechanically. The device is mounted on a movable X-Y stage in an enclosure which shields it from all sources of light. The DUT is connected to an active electrical stimulus. The stimulus pattern is continuously looped and a trigger signal is sent to the TRPE instrument in order to tell it when the pattern repeats. A TRPE prober operates in a manner similar to a sampling oscilloscope, and is used to perform semiconductor failure analysis.

The geology of Christmas Island includes interbedded sequences of carbonates and volcanic rocks formed during the Eocene and Miocene. Reef-wall and lagoonal origin dolomite and limestone are particularly common, along with phosphates such as crandallite, millisite, formed from laterite weathering and apatite and barrandite formed through chemical replacement. Most volcanic rocks are basic and include andesite and limburgite.

The species is found along the sublittoral zone of the western Atlantic in the waters of Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina, associated mostly with hard bottoms. Adults are robust and conspicuous crabs, with a smooth carapace, dorsally purple and white ventrally. Their claws have marked heterochely and right-handedness (i.e. dimorphism between chelae and the tendency of bearing the major claw on the right-hand side of the body), traits associated with shell-breaking feeding habits. Due to its abundance, large size and diet, "P. crenulatus" presumably has an important ecological role as a predator in benthic communities.
