A new species of Platybaetis viz., P. selvai sp. nov. is described herein based on larval collections from Tangon stream in the state Arunachal Pradesh Eastern region Indian Himalaya. It can be differentiated by following combination characters: (i) posterior margin abdominal segments IX with rounded 'U shaped spines; (ii) anterolateral gills IVII minute setae; (iii) claw 78 denticles; (iv) paracercus composed 1011 segments; (v) hindwing pads reduced, small. Brief ecological notes are appended.
Herbal feed additives, including turmeric (Curcuma longa), garlic (Allium sativum), and ginger (Zingiber officinale), are increasingly explored for their potential to enhance livestock performance. Objective: To evaluate the effects of Curcuma longa (Turmeric), Allium sativum (Garlic) Zingiber officinale (Ginger) powder on growth performance hematological values cross-bred female cow calves. Methods: Fifty calves were divided into ten groups: one control nine experimental groups. The groups...
As part of ongoing exploration the mayflies streams and rivers Indian Himalayan regions, we describe two new species genus Tenuibaetis based on recently collected materials from Western Himalaya viz., himani Kubendran, Vasanth & Subramanian sp. nov. kangi Additionally, records Eastern T. arduus (Kang Yang, 1994) inornatus are presented. The biological notes stream/rivers appended. A key to known a distribution maps provided.
Askola fortuita sp. nov. is described based on male imagos from Southeastern Brazil, near Caparaó National Park. The new species somewhat similar to A. froehlichi Peters, 1969 in regards development of the compound eyes and relative length penis, but can be readily distinguished this other genus by following characteristics: dorsal portion widely meeting meson head; forewings hyaline; femora white, with a submedial mark an apical band, both orangish brown; abdominal coloration mostly...
Lipomas are most commonly encountered benign tumors in surgical pathology. Angiolipoma is a rare vascular variant of the lipomatous and generally seen subcutaneous tissues. Angiolipomas usually found upper extremities, shoulder back. They occur as painful soft tissue masses may compress neighbouring structures (e.g., nerves) depending on their size location. We report 40-year-old female with swelling her forearm from past four years. Clinical examination showed firm, mobile, nontender mass...
As part of an ongoing exploration the mayflies hill streams/rivers Western Himalaya, we describe a new species, Choroperpes (Choroterpes) girigangaensis Kubendran and Vasanth sp. nov. It can be differentiated from all other known species genus by following combination characters: (i) femur with dark brown macula middle apex; (ii) anteromedian emargination labrum five broad unequal denticles; (iii) hind tibiae row dense medium, long, feathered setae; (iv) upper lower lamellae gills II–VII...
