This study explored the radiographic and anatomical differences in normal shoulders between men and women, as well as factors such as race, height, weight, and age. A total of 205 patients with documented normal anatomical radiographs comprised the study population. Five fellowship-trained orthopedic surgeon reviewers measured head diameter, humeral head size, head to tuberosity distance, great...

Aims: To observe the morphology of the larva of A. aegypti in detail and to evaluate their morphometry. Place and Duration of Study: Place – St. John’s College, Agra. Duration – June, 2011 to May, 2012. Methodology: Morphology of larval head, antennae, compound eyes, median brush (palatum), lateral brush; neck; thorax; abdomen, comb spine, siphon, siphon teeth and anal papillae were observed an...

Figure 1: Conventional non-shingled writing, on the left, writes data in non-overlapping tracks, width w, with non-magnetized “guard regions”, width g, between tracks. Shingled writing, on the right, leaves residual tracks, width r, less than the width of the written track, width w’, before it writes the next track, largely overlapping adjacent tracks. This increases tracks per inch, increasing...

Instar determination of field-collected insect larvae has generally been based on the analysis of head capsule width frequency distributions or bivariate plotting, but few studies have tested the validity of such methods. We used head capsules from exuviae of known instars of the beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), to determine the larval instars with the frequen...

Caetetermes Fontes, 1981 is a monotypic South American genus of Nasutitermitinae. Its single species, Caetetermes taquarussu Fontes, 1981, was described based on morphological characters from soldiers and workers collected at three localities in the tropical rainforest of northeastern Ecuador. Several samples of C. taquarussu represented also by the imago caste were examined at the Museu de Zoo...
