Science is integral to society because it can inform individual, government, corporate, and civil society decision-making on issues such as public health, new technologies or climate change.

Presented herein is the unpublished translation of a manuscript in French, the "Memoir on the heroic virtues of quinoa." Through this work, the Peruvian physician José Manuel Dávalos tried to be appointed as a foreign member of the prestigious Royal Society of Medicine, from France, at the end of 1787. Despite a laudatory letter of introduction from a Spanish diplomat, his application was rejected, possibly due to Dávalos' lack of credibility in the sense of David Bloor or Steven Shapin.

Aniops Casey, 1922, Psiona Casey, 1922, Preglyptobaris Bondar, 1946 and Prospoliata Hustache, 1950 are here proposed as new junior synonyms of Chryasus Champion, 1908 because their ostensibly diagnostic character states are more or less continuous following examination of numerous species from throughout their geographic ranges and are not valid as separate lineages in this broader context. Amphibaris bruniceps Bondar, 1946, Aniops sculpturatus Casey, 1922, Baris multistriata Chevrolat, 1880, Preglyptobaris bicolor Bondar, 1946, Psiona carinulosa Casey, 1922 and Psiona densa Casey, 1922 are transferred to Chryasus (new combinations). Baridius ignavus Boheman, 1844 and Amphibaris dispar Bondar, 1946 are transferred from Sphenobaris Champion, 1909 to Glyptobaris Casey, 1892 (new combinations).
