The cumacean fauna of the Caribbean mesophotic reefs is remarkably rich but understudied. Herein, we present description 22 new species family Nannastacidae, including one from shallow reefs, 20 them belonging to Cumella (Cumella) and two subgenus Cumewingia. We have also included range extensions locations for ten previously known Cumella, in genus Vaunthompsonia (family Bodotriidae) Cubanocuma Nannastacidae). Taxonomic keys are provided western tropical Atlantic (Cumewingia), separately...
Thirteen species of Echinoderes with nearly identical spine/tube patterns, and apparently similar tergal extensions were re-examined compared. Based on this, redescriptions and/or emended diagnoses are provided for aureus, E. dujardinii, gerardi, imperforatus, pacificus, pilosus, sensibilis, sublicarum worthingi, new details about cuticular structures added kozloffi gizoensis. The information derived from the redescriptions, subsequent comparative studies revealed that: 1) holotype...
The marine littoral mangrove mite fauna comprises members of the prostigmatid families Halacaridae and Pontarachnidae, mesostigmatid family Eutrachytidae, astigmatid Hyadesiidae ten different Oribatida. majority this is made up by Oribatida with 31 species each, Eutrachytidae represent minority nine altogether. So presently, 71 are known to occur in ecosystems, more than half which exclusively associated habitat. Marine mites have been reported from nearly all large ecosystems world, whereas...

Paedonothridae Norton, Ermilov & Bayartogtokh fam. nov. is proposed as a new family of the oribatid mite hyporder Nothrina. It monotypic, based on Paedonothrus reductus gen. et sp. nov., which was sampled from floating vegetation in shallow lagoon Kavaratti Atoll tropical Lakshadweep Islands, Arabian Sea, India. As such, it first known aquatic that truly marine. easily distinguished by knife-like claws, wide separation genital and anal valves, reduction papillae to single small pair. The...
Based on a revision of available literature the Indian Cladocera (Crustacea: Branchiopoda), we present an updated checklist, with taxonomical updates and comments for all taxa recorded since start research this group in country 1860. We have listed total 137 valid taxa, which most records belong to species groups that need worldwide. The situation taxonomy is, at present, insufficient realistic conclusions biodiversity, ecology biogeography. list suggestions improvement current situation.

This study evaluates the nonlinear relationship between gender inequality and tourism receipts using a standard quantile regression approach advances results with an asymmetric application. Gender is pervasive complex phenomenon rooted in socio-economic culture of many countries. The reasons for have country-specific situations, to gain broader understanding, countries were grouped by their income levels explore relationships different groups. concludes that not all stimulate overall through...
This study aims to generate rock units based on core permeability and porosity of OW oilfield in the Bredasdorp Basin offshore South Africa. In this study, we identified classified lithofacies sedimentology reports conjunction with well logs. Lucia's petrophysical classification method is used classify rocks into three classes. Results revealed as A (sandstone, coarse medium-grained), B (fine medium-grained sandstone), C (carbonaceous claystone, finely laminated siltstone). Lithofacies best...
Abstract Background In a historic move to ensure comprehensive abortion care, India amended the 1971 Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) Act in 2021, creating an unprecedented opportunity for accelerating safe, respectful, and rights‐based services.
