Hyalomma dromedarii (H. dromedarii) is a very characteristic tick with a cosmopolitan distribution, which is closely associated with camels. It is well adapted to extreme dryness of habitat and to camel hosts. In this study, we studied rural husbandry of one-humped camels (dromedaries) in a village in South-West of Semnan (Biabanak). A total of 163 ticks (94 adults and 67 nymphs) were found on ...

bentonite deposits of economic interest are widespread in tashtab mountains (khur), east of isfahan province, iran. several bentonite deposits have been developed in this area as a result of eocene volcanic alteration. these deposits are classified as khur bentonite horizon. xrd analyses reveal that alteration products consist of na-montmorillonite, kaolinite, quartz, calcite, and crystobalite....

Establishment of great industrial centers and ports along the Khur-Musa Estuary in Mahshahr Port (Khuzestan, Iran) have been discharged a high volume of industrial and non-industrial pollutants to this estuary. The most important pollutants in Khur-Musa include industrial wastes and effluents including ammonia and urea units. This research aimed to survey the qualitative parameters of effluent ...

Khuzestan coastal waters have high fisheries potential and ecological importance. Since different sources of stress exist in this area, the present study was conducted to evaluate ecological quality and to determine health status in Khuzestan coastal sediments based on benthic communities and their biological parameters. Seasonal sampling was done from 20 creeks of Khur-e-Mussa area in Khuzesta...

A sequence of Permian rocks crops out in Northwest of Khur in Central Alborz, North of Iran. This sequence consists of the Dorud (Asselian-Sakmarian), Ruteh (Artinskian-Murgabian) and Nesen (Early Djulfian) formations. The Ruteh and Nesen formations in Alborz Range were deposited in a shallow marine environment of the continental margin in the Paleo-Tethys. The Ruteh Formation with a thickness ...

Abstract A late early Maastrichtian dinosaur trampling site is reported from the Farrokhi Formation of Khur area, Central Iran. The largely indeterminate footprints, some which may represent undertracks, can be classified as natural moulds (i.e. concave epireliefs) bordered by a raised rim displaced sediment. They reach diameters up to 0.5 m and were impressed under very shallow subaerial condi...
