Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.Abstract The articulated genus Jania currently comprises 54 accepted species, making it the fourth most speciose genus among corallines, following Lithophyllum, Amphiroa, and Lithothamnion. Unlike these other genera, Jania is relatively easy to identify at a generic rank. However, morpho‐anatomical characters are insufficiently discriminant for species

European Encounters with Dracunculiasis in the Northern Bank of the Persian Gulf: A Perspective from Travelogues of the Safavid and Qajar Eras [PDF]
Journal of Research on History of Medicine“Dracunculus medinensis” or “Guinea worm” disease is transmitted to humans through drinking contaminated water, leading to symptoms such as ague, muscular weakness, and infection. This disease is endemic to arid and warm regions with minimal rainfall and

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.The material has no significant difference in captures (non‐shiny cotton‐polyester screens vs. the shiny polyethylene screens), but the vertical screen attracted significantly more G. tachinoides for each type of material. Full white horizontal screen was significantly lower than the reference WATT.

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.Insectary‐reared mosquitoes were simultaneously assessed for species identification, bloodmeal source analysis and Plasmodium detection, using a single multiplexed sequencing run on the MinION sequencing platform. The method was applied to 150 insectary‐reared mosquitoes, representing nine species blood‐fed with five vertebrate hosts and 40 samples for

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.In two‐choice laboratory bioassays, food‐deprived and CO2‐stimulated stable flies were offered paired landing platforms that were baited or not (control) with conspecific flies. The presence of conspecifics prompted the attraction and landing of foraging stable flies.

Phylogenetic history shapes the composition of floral scents in a specialized pollination mutualism
New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Most studies of the chemical ecology of plant–pollinator interactions emphasize the role of pollinator‐mediated selection in shaping floral scent composition. Nevertheless, phylogeny may constrain the metabolic pathways underlying these profiles, thereby influencing the evolutionary trajectory of the emitted signals.
