The status of the F. punctata complex in tropical/subtropical America, and more specifically in Cuba and the surrounding area, was partially assessed. Fomitiporia langloisii, Fomitiporia dryophila and Fomitiporia maxonii, three names long considered taxonomic synonyms of F. punctata, are recognized as representing three distinct species that are distinguished from the latter on the basis of morphological, molecular and ecological (biogeographical) data. The three species are described again and their preliminary phylogenetic relationships within Fomitiporia are discussed. Fomitiporia tabaquilio comb. nov. is proposed. The status of Fomitiporia in America and its present circumscription are discussed.

The nomenclatural and taxonomic issues regarding the thread-legged bug genera Kirkaldy, 1901 and Bergroth, 1903 are reviewed, and is concluded to be the valid name of the genus. A comprehensive review of is conducted, resulting in 18 new combinations and two new synonymies [ (Villiers, 1970) , (Ghate, Boyane & Joshi, 2019) , (Bergroth, 1903) , (McAtee & Malloch, 1926) , (Paiva, 1919) , (Lhoste, 1939) = Miller, 1956 , (Kulkarni & Ghate, 2016) , (Ribes, 1987) , (Lhoste, 1939) , (McAtee & Malloch, 1926) , (Villiers, 1972) , (Wygodzinsky, 1966) , (Wygodzinsky, 1966) , (Distant, 1906) , (Villiers, 1970) , (Horváth, 1910) , (Villiers, 1949) = Miller, 1954 , and (Rédei, 2005) ]. The bibliographies, diagnosis, and known distribution records are presented for all described species, and three new species [ (from Yunnan, China), (from Sabah, Malaysia), and (from Sulawesi, Indonesia)] are described.

In the present study, the taxonomic position of Salinisphaera halophila (NZ_AYKF00000000) and Salinisphaera orenii (NZ_AYKH00000000) was re-evaluated. In addition, their metabolic potentials and mechanisms for mitigating stress conditions were determined. Comparisons of 16S rRNA gene sequences, analysis of the phylogenetic tree, phylogenomic tree, average nucleotide identity (ANI), and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values were conducted.

Aim: This research concerns the patentability of carvacrol; it could be helpful for researchers to easily identify any innovation in the biotechnological application of this monoterpene as well as other similar compounds.
Background: Like thyme or oregano, several plants in the Lamiaceae family produce carvacrol. It is one of the secondary metabolites with several biological activities, including the improvement in plants' resistance and their protection.
