The skin mite Promyialges italicus Faradonbeh et al. 2019 (Acariformes: Epidermoptidae) was found on wings of a louse fly, Pseudolynchia canariensis (Macquart, 1840) (Diptera: Hippoboscidae,) from the Domestic Pigeon, Columba livia L., 1758 (Aves: Columbiformes). This is first record P. in Russia.

A Gram-positive and catalase-negative coccus that formed chains, strain FP15-1(T), isolated from fermented tea leaves ('miang'), was studied systematically. The strain was facultatively anaerobic and produced l-lactic acid from glucose. Demethylmenaquinone (DMK-7) was the major menaquinone. Straight-chain unsaturated fatty acids C(16 : 1) and C(18 : 1) were the dominant components. The DNA G+C ...

The genetic characteristics of white-clawed crayfish populations in Marches Region (Central Italy) was investigated to plan conservation strategies. In order to clarify their taxonomic status, 50 specimens from ten populations were collected in six different hydrographic drainages of the Umbro-Marchigiano Appennine. The genetic relationships of the Austropotamobius italicus specimens were asses...

Protoplasts of a respiration-deficient rho strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were incubated with mitochondria isolated from various respiration-competent yeast species under conditions enabling transplacement of mitochondria. Respiration-competent cybrids were selected by plating the protoplasts on agar media containing a non-fermentable energy source. The resulting cybrids contained nuclear D...
