Article Abstract
Kraits with black and white bands from Nui Chua National Park, central Vietnam are morphologically similar to the Burmese Krait, Bungarus magnimaculatus, however, analysis of molecular data finds them to be nested within the B. candidus complex.

DNA barcoding has greatly facilitated studies of taxonomy, biodiversity, biological conservation, and ecology. Here, we establish a reliable DNA barcoding library for Chinese snakes, unveiling hidden diversity with implications for taxonomy, and provide a standardized tool for conservation management. Our comprehensive study includes 1638 cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences from Chinese snakes that correspond to 17 families, 65 genera, 228 named species (80.
Galactomyces candidus (orthographic variant: Galactomyces candidum) is a heterogeneous species of Saccharomycetales that comprises dimorphic yeasts described previously under various names (e.g. Geotrichum, Dipodascus).
Lemonomycin () was first isolated from the fermentation broth of in 1964. The complete chemical structure was not elucidated until 2000 with extensive spectroscopic analysis. Lemonomycin is currently known as the only glycosylated tetrahydroisoquinoline antibiotic.

Kraits of the genus Daudin 1803 are widely known venomous snakes distributed from Iran to China and Indonesia. Here, we use a combination of mitochondrial DNA sequence data and morphological data to describe a new species from Yingjiang County, Yunnan Province, China: . Phylogenetically, this species forms a monophyletic lineage sister to the // complex based on cyt and ND4 genes but forms a sister species pair with the species Wall & Evans, 1901 based on COI gene fragments.
