The genus Pseudoceros is one of the flashiest among polyclads and represented by 93 species worldwide while Acanthozoon consists with papillae 14 valid distributed around world. meenae sp. nov. fuscobulbosum nov., based on morphological histological characters have been described in present paper. characterised white to cream body three marginal bands; inner black, middle orange a rim fuscobulbosum, numerous brown bulbous variable sizes dorsum.
Polyclads are free-living marine flatworms known for their striking colour and patterns. These animals though frequently encountered still understudied in the Indian context. The present paper describes three new species, two belonging to genus Pseudoceros Lang, 1884 one Prostheceraeus Schmarda, 1859. auranticrinis sp. nov. is characterised by whitish cream background colour, brown mottling with numerous white dark spots all over body except margins a smooth dorsal surface orange...
The present paper deals with the first study of polyclad fauna from Agatti Island, Lakshadweep. Through this study, Pseudobiceors apricus, Pseudobiceros hymanae and Pseudoceros bolool are recorded for time Lakshadweep waters while bicolor is Indian waters. Description two new species, agattiensis sp. nov. Pseuodoceros stellans also provided good quality photographs external internal details. characterized by a brown to black background colour, minute white spots, marginal band thick spots at...
The paper presents three new records of brittle stars for Indian waters, collected from the Lakshadweep atolls (northern Ocean)—Ophiarachnella septemspinosa (Müller & Troschel, 1842), Ophiocoma cynthiae Benavides-Serrato O’Hara, 2008 Ophiomoeris obstricta (Lyman, 1878). Further, this also discusses validity two recently described taxa archipelago, genus Indophioderma with species ganapatii Sastry, Marimuthu Rajan, 2019. A checklist reported so far Islands is provided, which includes 40...
Abstract. Debris flows triggered by rainfall are catastrophic geohazards that occur compounded during extreme events. Few early warning systems for shallow landslides and debris at the territorial scale use thresholds of intensity–duration (ID). ID mostly defined using hourly rainfall. Due to instrumental operational challenges, current have difficulty forecasting sub-daily time series weather in Himalayas. Here, we present a framework employs spatio-temporal numerical model preceded Weather...

As an intervention strategy to deal roll modalities homoeopathy, its related also. Finally, role homoeopathy ministry context proposes a multi...
Two new species of marine flatworms, Paraplanocera kalpeniensis sp. nov. and Pseudoceros bifascia nov., are described. The specimens were collected from the Lakshadweep Islands (situated in Arabian Sea) India belong to suborders Acotylea Cotylea, respectively. Pink coloration with a few irregular white blotches on dorsum rim surrounding violet purple marginal bands distinguishes other congeners. is characterised by two coloured pseudotentacles; background colour black pattern dorsum; thin...
In the current context of climate change, urban areas in Himalayas frequently experience flash floods. During high-intensity rainfall events catchments, due to hilly terrain and steep slopes, headwater streams cause floods destroy life property downstream. Increased encroachment along riverbanks unplanned settlements expose financially distressed communities elevated risk This requires developing a reliable warning/alert system ensure better preparedness for flood hazards improve disaster...
The genus Pseudoceros is one of the most flamboyant among polyclads and represented by 87 species worldwide. galatheensis sp. nov. P. nigropunctatus nov., based on morphological histological characters, have been described in present paper. Both had photographed past from other parts world but lacked formal description. These are an addition to polyclad fauna India.
Abstract Quantifying uncertainties in estimating future hydropower production directly or indirectly affects India’s energy security, planning, and management. The chaotic nonlinear nature of atmospheric processes results considerable internal climate variability (ICV) for projections variables. Multiple initial condition ensembles (MICE) multimodel (MME) are often used to analyze the role ICV model uncertainty precipitation temperature. However, there limited studies focusing on quantifying...
Abstract The Lakshadweep archipelago constitutes a major coral region of India but still lacks sufficient biodiversity data owing to its remoteness and low number faunal studies in the past. present paper describes two new Pseudoceros species collected from Agatti Island, Lakshadweep, India. bipurpurea sp. nov. galaxea are described based on external internal characters, supported with histological photographs. is characterized by cream background colour an orange median line surrounded...
The genus Bulaceros (Polycladida: Pseudocerotidae) erected by Newman & Cannon (1996) is a rare found only in the Pacific Ocean and known one species, porcellanus Cannon, 1996 so far. present work, based on collection from Lakshadweep Islands, which are coral atolls India, describes second species newcannorum sp. nov. under this also reports occurrence of for first time Indian Ocean. described external internal morphology supported with histological studies photographs details. characterized...
Sipuncula is one of the most taxonomically neglected groups marine invertebrates in Indian waters. Research on these worms has been stagnant for last three decades as there are no sipunculan taxonomists India. The current work an attempt to resurrect taxonomic research fauna by describing first new species from seas. A molluscan shell dwelling species, Aspidosiphon ( Akrikos ) carnicobarensis sp. nov., described Car Nicobar Island, India collected 205 m depth. characterized presence...
Recently, the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) through studies confirmed that there is no link between COVID-19 vaccines & heart issues. The larger issue an established disease current article deals with details process problems. patho-physiology, symptoms pattern, epidemiology entire phenomenon touched upon. To deal COVID related issues, proposes integration Homoeopathy AYUSH. In article, it out a suggested treatment protocol based on homoeopathic therapeutics for Taking into...
The Himalayas are increasingly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, with recent years experiencing a surge in frequency natural hazards. risk escalates when events unfold cascading manner, where primary hazard triggers secondary one. Therefore, it is crucial develop an integrated framework assess ramifications these This plays pivotal role providing early warnings, considering uncertainty introduced by rainfall input. presented simulates dynamic interplay between intense...
