In the present paper, we report the occurrence of the cricket subgenus Gryllitara Chopard, 1931 from India along with the description of a new species, Itara (Gryllitara) pilosa sp. nov., from the state of Kerala, South India.

Revision in the generic name of the cricket, Luzaropsis mjobergi Chopard, 1926 of tribe Luzaropsini (Phalangopsidae: Phalangopsinae).

The present paper deals with the revision in the generic name of the phalangopsid cricket, Luzaropsis mjobergi Chopard (1926) as Paraluzaropsis, based on significant differences in certain morphological and the male genitalia characters. The male of Paraluzaropsis mjobergi (Chopard) has been described for the first time with suitable plates and line diagrams that was collected from South India. A key to the existing genera of the tribe Luzaropsini has been presented.

Notes on some lesser known crickets of the tribe Podoscirtini (Podoscirtinae: Gryllidae: Orthoptera) from India.

The present paper deals with a description of two new species of crickets of the subfamily Podoscirtinae (Orthoptera: Gryllidae), Trelleora khasiana sp. nov. and Indotrella maculata sp.

A new species of the cricket genus, Cacoplistes from Rajasthan, India (Orthoptera: Phalangopsidae: Cachoplistinae:Cachoplistini).

A new species of the phalangopsid cricket in Cacoplistes subgenus, Laminogryllus, is reported and described as Cacoplistes (Laminogryllus) latioribus sp nov., from Rajasthan, India. Description of the two existing phenotypic forms, brachypterous and macropterous is provided with suitable plates and figures.

Releasable Suture versus Autologous Blood for Pterygium Surgery using Conjunctival Autografts.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of releasable single suture (RS) for conjunctival autograft (CAG) and to compare it with sutureless gluefree (SG) technique in pterygium surgery.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective comparative study on patients with primary pterygium who underwent CAG. In 150 patients, CAG was additionally secured by a single 10-0 nylon releasable suture (RS) which was released on the first postoperative day.

Central retinal artery occlusion after Descemet membrane reposition by intracameral air: A case report.

Purpose: To report a case of central retinal artery occlusion after Descemet membrane reposition by intracameral air.

Methods: An otherwise healthy 60-year-old woman presented with white mature cataract in her left eye. Ocular exam of both eyes was within normal limits.

Releasable Single Suture for Primary Pterygium Excision With a Conjunctival Autograft.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of a releasable single suture for pterygium excision with a conjunctival autograft (CAG).

Methods: Retrospective case series at a tertiary eye care center in central India was conducted. Medical records of 150 patients, who underwent primary pterygium excision with a CAG secured by a single releasable 10-0 nylon suture in the last year were reviewed.

Highly sensitive LC-MS/MS-ESI method for simultaneous quantitation of albendazole and ricobendazole in rat plasma and its application to a rat pharmacokinetic study.

A highly sensitive and specific LC-MS/MS-ESI method was developed for simultaneous quantification of albenadazole (ABZ) and ricobendazole (RBZ) in rat plasma (50 μL) using phenacetin as an internal standard (IS). Simple protein precipitation was used to extract ABZ and RBZ from rat plasma. The chromatographic resolution of ABZ, RBZ and IS was achieved with a mobile phase consisting of 5 m m ammonium acetate (pH 6) and acetonitrile (20:80, v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min on a Chromolith RP-18e column.
