We describe a new species, Trachischium sushantai sp. nov., from Jammu, India. The new species can be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of the following characters: -a single nasal, a singleprefrontal, a single post-ocular, 13 rows of dorsal scales at mid-body, 152 ventrals, 23 pairs of subcaudals and those on anterior half of tail as long as wide and regular hexagon or rhomboid shaped, uniformly dark brown dorsum and brown subcaudals, edged incream or yellow posteriorly. The new species closely resembles T. fuscum. We also provide a redescription of T. fuscum and comments on its subjective synonyms.

This study describes a new species of Polyxenida from China, , along with a species newly recorded from China: (Miyosi, 1947), and provides additional descriptions of Ishii & Liang, 1990 and Ishii & Liang, 1990. The study conducted mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) sequencing for all four species and constructed a phylogenetic tree based on the molecular data. The comprehensive morphological descriptions and molecular analyses confirm the addition of one new species and one newly recorded species for the Polyxenida fauna of China, elevating the total number of known Polyxenida species in the country from 10 to 12.

Although numerous studies have addressed some aspects of the cranial osteology of Nearctic dipsadid species, only the species within the genera Heterodon and Carphophis have a formal published description of their skull. Similarly, vertebral data on such species are extremely scarce, and most of the available literature is focused on fossils. Such group has a complex phylogenetic history, being recovered as monophyletic or nonmonophyletic depending on the approach.

The Emperor Penguin Aptenodytes forsteri is the largest living species of penguin, found exclusively in Antarctica, and is unique in breeding during the winter. Consequently, fewer anatomical studies have been conducted on this species over time compared to others. This study aims to provide an updated and comprehensive description of the hindlimb musculature of Aptenodytes forsteri.
