Modeling and Prediction of the Species' Range of (Linnaeus, 1758) under Climate Change.

is widely distributed in eastern tropical Asia. Its only congener in China, the , has not been observed for decades. To protect , it is necessary to understand the ecological properties of its habitats and specie's range shift under climate change.

Unraveling the Mode of Action of : Potential Biocontrol Agent against (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae).

The entomopathogenic fungus, is a potential eco-friendly biocontrol agent. The present study revealed the entire course of infection of by with particular reference to cuticular penetration. Comparative studies on the infection of larvae by two strains of with different pathogenicity were carried out using light, scanning, and transmission electron microscopy.

The mitochondrial genome of Ris, 1912 (Zygoptera: Calopterygidae) via Ion Torrent PGM NGS sequencing.

The mitochondrial genome of was sequenced and assembled via Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and iteratively assembly process with a reference seed. This genome is 15,562 bp long and A + T biased (71%), with 37 genes arranged in common order of Odonata. All protein-coding genes are initiated by typical "ATN" codon, and 9 genes are terminated with a complete stop codon, except nad4, nad5, cox2, and cox3, which are terminated with an incomplete codon "T(aa)".

Updated information on genus (Odonata: Gomphidae) in China with description of sp. nov.

A new gomphid species, named as Gomphidictinus tongi sp. nov. (Holotype male, Mt.

[Relationships of Syzygium jambos and Dracontomelon duperreanum leaf tannin concentration and leaf litter breakdown with the colonization of benthonic invertebrates].

An investigation was made on the dynamic changes of tannin concentration in Syzygium jambos and Dracontomelon duperreanum leaves over a 105-day period of leaf litter decomposition in a second-order stream in Longdong Reservoir, Guangzhou. The initial tannin concentration in S. jambos leaves (0.
