The Neotropical free-living freshwater cyclopoid copepod Mesocyclops paranaensis Dussart & Frutos, 1986 was found in a small temporal pond La Guajira, northern Colombia. Hitherto, it has been reported from Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil. This is the first record of this species Colombia, its northernmost finding South America, fourth locality which recorded from. can be distinguished close...

An ef®cient system has been developed for the in vitro plant regeneration of Lilium longi ̄orum Thunb. by culturing receptacle sections from ̄ower buds. The sections were cultured on one-half MS medium plus 30 g lÿ1 sucrose, 8 g lÿ1 agar, 5.4 mM NAA or 4.9 mM IBA plus 2.2 mM BAP. A section size of 3±4 mm was found to be optimal. After 60 days an average of 41 shoots were formed per explant. More...

A 44-year-old woman underwent fractional flow reserve (FFR) assessment of a stenosis of the left circumflex coronary artery. The FFR was within normal limits, however, shortly after leaving the catheterization laboratory the patient developed refractory angina. Repeat angiography demonstrated a new filling defect in the mid left anterior descending coronary artery. Aspiration thrombectomy was p...

The development of Haplorchis taichui was studied in sixteen mice, Mus musculus. Metacercarial cysts of H. taichui were obtained from the freshwater fish, Thynnichthys thynnoides, collected in Chiang Mai Province, north Thailand. Approximately 200 active metacercariae were orally introduced into each mouse. Two mice were randomly sacrificed and necropsied daily from day 2-9 postinfection (pi). ...

Fifty-eight individuals belonging to 10 species of bats, insectivores, and pikas were examined for helminths from 4 collection sites in Mongolia in 1999. Two species of bats (Vespertilio murinus and Eptesicus gobiensis) were infected with a single species of trematode (Plagiorchis vespertilionis), which represents a new record for the country. One individual of E. gobiensis also harbored 1 unid...

Mollinedia (Monimiaceae) presents numerous microendemic species, and its centre of diversity is in the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest, where more than half species occur. The taxonomy can be challenging because their morphological genetic variations interpreted as a response to geographic isolation rather circumscription for different species. In this paper, we describe pignalii Lírio & Pauli, f...

In this essay, we marshal resources from a range of biblical, trinitarian and soteriological commitments, set within broadly Barthian framework, to offer doctrinal proposal for the Spirit’s role in triune God’s work at-one-ment. We argue that Spirit plays vital atoning God, as is love God directed toward incarnate Son two-fold manner: (1) mode wrath against our sin born by Christ representative...
