Nineteen new species of Babington, 1841 are described from multiple species groups. Two new species groups are erected, the species group and the species group. (Venezuela), (Venezuela), (Suriname), and (Guyana) are described in but are not assigned to a species group. (Guyana, Venezuela), (Venezuela), and (Venezuela) are described in the new species group and are the only members of the group. (Peru), and (Brazil) are described in the new group. Other members of the group are Zimmermann, Miller, Sharp, and (each previously "ungrouped"). (Venezuela) is described in the species group. (Venezuela) is described in the species group. (Guyana, Suriname), (Guyana, Suriname, Venezuela), (Guyana), (Suriname, Venezuela), and (Guyana, Suriname) are described in the species group. (Suriname), and (Venezuela) are described in the species group. (Venezuela) is described in the species group. A key to the species groups is included. Male genitalia are figured for all new species and dorsal habitus images are provided for most new species.

Pulmovermis cyanovitellosus Coil and Kuntz, 1960 is a species of hemiurid trematode that localizes in the lung of sea snakes, an unusual trait for this group of parasites. Recent molecular phylogenetic studies based on 28S rRNA gene sequences have shown that this species is closely related to members of the genus Lecithochirium Lühe, 1901. This finding is unexpected given that Pulmovermis Coil and Kuntz, 1960 and Lecithochirium are currently classified in different subfamilies of Hemiuridae (Pulmoverminae Sandars, 1961 vs.

Biting midges of genus Leptoconops Skuse 1889 are small blood-feeding insects recognized as highly irritating diurnal pests in certain regions around the globe. In Europe, their presence is poorly documented, except in France and Italy. Following reports of human discomfort in a tourist area of Menorca, Balearic Islands (Spain), a small-scale study was conducted to identify the biting species and assess their preferred biting sites using a human-landing assay along a habitat gradient in a coastal dune area.

The end groups of three- and four-arm star-shaped polylactides (PLA) with trimethylolpropane and pentaerythritol core structures were functionalized with acetic acid. Reaction products with different degrees of functionalization were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Additional gradient elution liquid adsorption chromatography (GELAC) measurements were performed to determine the degree of functionalization.

The development of multitopic hosts for fullerene recognition based on nonplanar corannulene (CH) structures presents challenges, primarily due to the requirement for synergistic interactions with multiple units of this polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon. Moreover, increasing the number of corannulene groups in a single chemical structure while avoiding the cost of increasing flexibility has been scarcely explored. Herein, we report the synthesis of a family of multitopic Ru(II)-polypyridyl complexes bearing up to six units of corannulene arranged by pairs, offering a total of three molecular tweezers.

Uncontrolled bleeding and infection following trauma continue to pose significant clinical challenges. This study employs hemoadhican (HD) polysaccharide, known for its superior hemostatic properties, as the foundational material to synthesize antibacterial carbon dots (H-CDs) through a hydrothermal method at various temperatures. The H-CDs exhibiting optimal antimicrobial properties were identified via in vitro antimicrobial characterization.
