Four new species of Mydaeinae, Mydaea franzosternita n sp., Myospila apicaliciliola n sp., Myospila maoershanensis n sp., and Myospila subflavipennis n sp., are described and illustrated here for the first time. A key to the genus of Mydaeinae from China and keys to species of genera from Mydaeinae are provided.

: Assessing vector bionomics is crucial to improving vector control strategies. Several entomological studies have been conducted to describe malaria transmission in different eco-epidemiological settings in Cameroon; knowledge gaps persist, particularly in highland areas. This study aimed to characterize malaria vectors in three localities along an altitudinal gradient in the western region: Santchou (700 m), Dschang (1400 m), and Penka Michel (1500 m).

Background: Dengue fever (DF) poses a growing global threat, necessitating a comprehensive one-health approach to address its complex interplay between human, animal, and environmental factors. In Oyo State, Nigeria, the true burden of DF remains unknown due to underdiagnosis and misdiagnosis as malaria, exacerbated by poor health-seeking behavior, weak surveillance systems, and inadequate health infrastructure. Adopting a one-health approach is crucial to understanding the dynamics of DF transmission.

The mechanisms that regulate minor and trace element biomineralization in the echinoid skeleton can be primarily controlled biologically (, by the organism and its vital effects) or by extrinsic environmental factors. Assessing the relative role of those controls is essential for understanding echinoid biomineralization, taphonomy, diagenesis, and their potential as geochemical archives. In this study, we (1) contrast geochemical signatures of specimens collected across multiple taxa and environmental settings to assess the effects of environmental and physiological factors on skeletal biomineralogy; and (2) analyze the nanomechanical properties of the echinoid skeleton to assess potential linkages between magnesium/calcium (Mg/Ca) ratios and skeletal nanohardness.

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.
