Here, the taxonomy of the genus Rothschild & Jordan, 1903 (Lepidoptera, Sphingidae, Macroglossinae, Macroglossini) from China is revised based on differences in wing morphology, male and female genitalia, and the phylogenetic relationship of the DNA barcodes. Subspecies of (Rothschild, 1894) and (Walker, 1856) are treated as "good" species, namely Mell, 1922 stat. nov.; Rothschild & Jordan, 1903 stat. nov.; (Butler, 1875) stat. rev.; Mell, 1922 stat. nov.; Clark, 1925 stat. nov.; and Oberthür, 1904 stat. rev. The distribution maps, biological notes, and ecological records of the genus Rothschild & Jordan, 1903 from China are given, and a species inventory of genus in the world is also included.

- The study analyzed global, regional, and national trends in injury burden and identified risk factors contributing to injuries using data from the GBD 2019.
- In 2019, there were approximately 713.9 million injury incidents and 4.3 million injury-related deaths globally, with low bone mineral density emerging as the leading risk factor.
- The findings emphasize the need for effective global injury prevention policies by highlighting the persistent impact of injuries on global health.
Article Synopsis
- * Recent efforts to stop smoking haven't been put into action yet, and it’s important to see what could happen if smoking rates stay the same or improve.
- * Researchers used models to predict health outcomes by 2050 based on different scenarios of smoking rates, showing that cutting smoking could greatly improve health and life expectancy.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers studied strokes from 1990 to 2021 to understand how many people get them and how they are affected around the world.
- In 2021, strokes caused about 7.3 million deaths and were a major cause of health problems, especially in specific regions like Southeast Asia and Oceania.
- There are differences in stroke risks based on where people live and their age, and some areas actually saw more strokes happening since 2015.
A new record of fleas from nilgai antelope in southern Texas and fleas from other wildlife.

Wildlife are hosts of ectoparasites, such as fleas and ticks that may transmit human and animal pathogens. Little is known about the ecology of many ectoparasite species native to southern Texas, or their role in pathogen maintenance and transmission. Much attention has been given to the role of nonnative nilgai antelope as cattle fever tick hosts and agents of dispersal, but little attention has been given to other ectoparasites that may utilize nilgai antelope as hosts.
