Two new species of the genus Stictane, S. heppneri n. sp. and S. transversana n. sp. are described from Cambodia along with one newly recorded species, S. obscura (Inoue, 1976). A key to the Cambodian species of the genus Stictane with figures of adults and genitalia are presented. Moreover, adults of the little known three Vietnamese species of Diduga are illustrated herein.

Improving lignocellulose degradation and organic matter conversion in agricultural and livestock wastes remains a great challenge. Here, the contribution of humic acid (HA) to lignocellulose degradation was investigated, focusing on the abundance of key microbial species and carbohydrate-active enzymes during aerobic composting. The results demonstrated that the addition of HA not only increased the complexity of the microbial network, but also enhanced the positive interaction between microorganism.

The intestinal microbiota plays a crucial role in the health and development of fish, engaging in intricate interactions with the host organism. As a significant species in aquaculture, Lateolabrax japonicus serves as an exemplary model for investigating these interactions and their subsequent effects on growth and health. This study utilized a multi-omics approach, incorporating metagenomic sequencing and non-targeted metabolomics, to delineate the gut microbiota and metabolome of L.

The tick fauna of El Salvador is currently represented by 10 species of hard ticks (family Ixodidae) and 2 species of soft ticks (family Argasidae). This study aimed to report new and additional records of ticks and rickettsiae in El Salvador. During 2019-2021, a total of 216 specimens of ticks were collected from eight host species (domestic and wild animals) and in the environment among 15 geographic localities of El Salvador.
