The genus Stimpson, 1860 comprises 17 described species of marine shrimps, most of them distributed in the Indo-West Pacific and eastern Pacific. Only three species are recorded in the Atlantic. When comparing specimens of (Stimpson, 1871) from both sides of the Atlantic by means of a combination of morphological and molecular data, we recognized a new species of from Brazil (Rio Grande do Norte, Bahia, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo). The phylogenetic tree generated on the basis of the 16S gene showed a clear separation of the specimens of the new species from the other closely related species analyzed. The analyses also evidenced that the new species and are sister taxa. Although very similar, both species can be easily separated by features of the scaphocerite and eyestalk. Rostrum form and dentition, characters usually used for recognition, were highly variable in both species. Thus, herein the new species is described, illustrated, and compared with morphological similar species of . A key for the Atlantic species is also provided.

Background: Accurate identification of Fusarium species requires molecular identification. Treating fusariosis is challenging due to widespread antifungal resistance, high rates of treatment failure, and insufficient information relating antifungal susceptibility to the clinical outcome. Despite recent outbreaks in Mexico, there is limited information on epidemiology and antifungal susceptibility testing (AST).

Saussurea medusa is a rare alpine plant with significant medicinal value. To better understand the changes in its habitat in the context of climate change, this study used an optimized MaxEnt model to predict the current and future habitat of S. medusa under four shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs) across three time periods (current, mid-century, and end-century) based on three climate system models.

Invasive alien species such as freshwater snails have significantly affected the food, environment, and the health of humans and animals, which have unfortunately received insufficient attention. To facilitate the study of viromes in snail species, we compared the enrichment effect of cesium chloride (CsCl) and sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugations in the recovery of diverse viruses in Pomacea canaliculata and Achatina fulica. First, we showed that CsCl-based ultracentrifugation enriched more virus contigs and reduced the nucleic acid background of the Pomacea canaliculata and was thus beneficial for virus recovery.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major public health concern. Animal models play a crucial role in understanding the disease pathology and development of effective treatment strategies. Chemically induced CRC represents a cornerstone in animal model development; however, due to the presence of different animal species with different genetic backgrounds, it becomes mandatory to study the susceptibility of different mice species to CRC induction by different chemical entities such as 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH).
