Lecanicillium aphanocladii: a biocontrol agent against insect pests and phytopathogens
Recent research findings on the biocontrol potential of Lecanicillium aphanocladii fungus against insect‐pests and plant diseases were highlighted. This review indicates that several L. aphanocladii strains show great potential to be developed as multipurpose biocontrol agents active against several insect‐pests, plant diseases and plant parasitic ...

Quantifying venom in African snakes: Insights into protein content, yield and body size associations
Snake venoms are complex mixtures primarily composed of toxic proteins used during prey capture and defence. There is limited knowledge concerning the protein concentration of snake venom and the biases of different protein determination methods.

Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Parasitic Infections in Captive Snakes, Bangladesh
This study documented gastrointestinal parasitic infections in captive venomous and non‐venomous snakes in Bangladesh for the first time, finding an overall prevalence of 39.1%, with helminths more common than protozoa. Non‐venomous snakes and juveniles were most susceptible, while controlled terrarium housing reduced risk, highlighting the need for ...

Summary This case report describes a 10‐year‐old, male, neutered labrador retriever that was presented with acute non‐ambulatory tetraparesis, later diagnosed with an ectopic insulinoma and paraneoplastic polyneuropathy. Clinical evaluation revealed severe hypoglycaemia, generalised neuromuscular signs and electromyography findings were consistent with
