Members of Geomyphilus are associated with rodent burrows, such as pocket gophers and prairie dogs. In Mexico, they are found in the mountains of the Mexican Volcanic Belt and in Sierra Madre Oriental. Our study aims to initiate the exploration of the dispersal modes of Geomyphiluspierai and Geomyphilusbarrerai from burrows of pocket gophers. In order to estimate the dispersal scale of the beet...

To expand our knowledge of the martensitic transformation from a B2 to an L10 structure for ferromagnetic shape memory Co-Ni-Al alloys, we have performed first-principles band calculations for the supercell structures corresponding to Co1 xNi1þxAl (x 1⁄4 0, 1=2) in a nonmagnetic state. From the investigation of total energy vs c=a, we have found that the total-energy gain for x 1⁄4 0 due to the...

The species status of Hyphydrus anatolicus Guignot, 1957 and H. sanctus Sharp, 1882, previously often confused with the widespread H. ovatus (Linnaeus, 1760), are tested with molecular and morphological characters. Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) was sequenced for 32 specimens of all three species. Gene-trees were inferred with parsimony, time-free bayesian and strict clock bayesian analys...

background: the aim of the current study was to assess the mrna levels of two mitochondria-related genes, including nuclear-encoded nrf1 (nuclear respiratory factor 1), mitochondrial transcription factor a (tfam), and mitochondrial-encoded cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (mt-co1) genes in various stages of the human oocyte maturation. methods: oocytes were obtained from nine infertile women with...

Four species of Devario are recorded from Bangladesh: D. aequipinnatus, D. anomalus, D. coxi, new species, and D. devario. Devario aequipinnatus has a wide distribution in northern India and Bangladesh. Devario coxi, from southeastern Bangladesh near Cox's Bazar, differs from D. aequipinnatus in mtDNA (COI, p-distance 1.8%), colouration, proportional measurements, and meristics. The minor morph...

A continuing impediment to the taxonomy of reticulate whipray Himantura spp. species complex is absence a type specimen for H. uarnak (Gmelin [ex Forsskål], 1789). Here, specimens were sampled from Jeddah region in Red Sea, assumed locality uarnak, and characterized genetically at cytochrome-oxidase subunit 1 (CO1) locus. One these now fish collection California Academy Sciences was designated ...
