An updated checklist of the pseudoscorpion fauna of Hungary is presented. Chthonius cf. alpicola Beier, 1951 is newly reported for the country. Neobisium inaequale Chamberlin, 1930 is regarded as a junior synonym of N. sylvaticum (C.L. Koch, 1835) (syn. nov.). Chelifer tegulatus Tömösváry, 1883 is regarded as a junior synonym of Dactylochelifer latreillii (Leach, 1817) (syn. nov.). Rhacochelifer quadrimaculatus (Tömösváry, 1882) is regarded as a senior synonym of Beierochelifer peloponnesiacus (Beier, 1929) (syn. nov.), forming the combination Beierochelifer quadrimaculatus (Tömösváry, 1882) (comb. nov). Furthermore, Chthonius pygmaeus (Beier, 1934), Neobisium (Neobisium) simoni (L. Koch, 1873), Neobisium (Neobisium) validum (L. Koch, 1873), Rhacochelifer peculiaris (L. Koch, 1873), and Chernes montigenus (Simon, 1879) are excluded from the Hungarian fauna. Neobisium (N.) seminudum (Daday and Tömösváry, 1880) and Chelifer entzii Daday and Tömösváry, 1880 are designated as nomina dubia. As a consequence, the pseudoscorpion fauna of Hungary now comprises 49 species belonging to eight families with confirmed occurrence data; the occurrence of 6 further species recorded earlier for Hungary is doubtful. Phoresy is documented for Ephippiochthonius tetrachelatus (Preyssler, 1790) and Diplotemnus balcanicus (Redikorzev, 1928). Habitat preference of each species with confirmed occurrence in Hungary are assumed. Notes are given to some old data reported by Ödön Tömösváry and Eugen Daday from neighbouring countries. Microbisium manicatum (L. Koch, 1873) is excluded from the fauna list of Romania.

Article Synopsis
  • Green mold disease is a significant concern for the production of an important edible mushroom in China, leading to economic losses.
  • Two new fungal pathogens were identified as responsible for this disease through analyses of certain genetic markers.
  • Pathogenicity tests confirmed the ability of these pathogens to cause symptoms similar to those seen in infected mushrooms, supporting their identification as the causal agents.

Assessment of thoracic disc degeneration using dual-energy CT-based collagen maps.

Eur Radiol Exp

August 2024

Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, University Hospital Frankfurt, Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

Background: We evaluated the role of dual-energy computed tomography (DECT)-based collagen maps in assessing thoracic disc degeneration.

Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent DECT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the thoracic spine within a 2-week period from July 2019 to October 2022. Thoracic disc degeneration was classified by three blinded radiologists into three Pfirrmann categories: no/mild (grade 1-2), moderate (grade 3-4), and severe (grade 5).

Queensland; Australia; Queensland Museum; PO Box 3300; South Brisbane; Queensland 4101; Australia.

A group of Australian miturgines that are common in widespread areas of mostly dry landscapes are revised. Five new genera (Miturgopelma, Knotodo, Xistera, Miturgiella and Xeromiturga) and 48 new species are described. Three species presently included in three families are placed in these groups in the Miturgidae: Uliodon ferrugineus (L.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on using radiomic features and dual-source dual-energy CT (DECT) parameters to distinguish between benign and malignant mediastinal masses and predict patient outcomes.
  • It analyzed data from 90 patients with confirmed mediastinal masses, demonstrating significant differences in DECT parameters and radiomic features between benign and malignant cases.
  • The findings indicated high accuracy in differentiating between the two types of masses and showed that a combination of these imaging techniques could effectively predict patient mortality risk over a follow-up period.
