Published: February 2022

Two new solifuge species of the genus Pseudocleobis (Solifugae, Arachnida) from northern Patagonia and southern Monte desert biogeographical regions are described: P. mauryi sp. nov. and P. profanus sp. nov. New records of P. huinca Maury, 1976, P. bardensis Maury, 1976 and P. solitarius Maury, 1976 are provided. The female of P. solitarius is described based on specimens from the type locality. SEM photographs, schemes of diagnostic characters, and maps of the known distributional records are provided for the five species treated here. Pseudocleobis profanus sp. nov. is closely related to P. huinca and P. bardensis, and the three species may form a species group characterized by the peculiar morphology of the male movable finger mucron and the flagellum. Ctenidia on male sternite III and IV are reported for the five species.

The effect of potent sheep anti-mouse interferon globulin was investigated in several different experimental virus diseases of mice. In anti-interferon globulin-treated mice infected intraperitoneally with herpes simplex virus (HSV) type I, the latent period was shortened, and the overall LD50 was increased several hundredfold compared to virus-infected control mice. When HSV was inoculated subcutaneously all anti-interferon globulin-treated mice died, whereas only 5% of virus-infected control mice died.

The role of interferon in the pathogenesis of encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus infection was determined by treating mice with potent, partially purified sheep anti-mouse interferon globulin. In control mice, EMC virus was present in low titers in various visceral organs but attained high titers in the brain towards the 4th to 5th day, at which time mice died with signs of central nervous system disease. In mice treated with anti-mouse interferon globulin, virus was present in high titer in visceral organs 24--36 h after viral inoculation and virtually all mice were dead by 45 h.

The aut horsdescribe the technique and the first results of para-sphincteric anaesthetic infiltrations of the striate sphincter of the urethra in paraplegics. These infiltrations may decrease, or even cause to disappear altogether, dysuria as long as the striate sphincter is alone responsible and that the straite sphincter muscle is not the process of fibrosis. In certain special cases, this simple technique may have a durable effect which makes it possible to avoid definitive procedures such as endoscopic or surgical section.
