The new species is a member of an apparently monophyletic group within the genus that includes R. flexile, R. walga, R. himanturi, R. burgeri, R. euzeti, R. hawaiiensis, R. urobatidium, R. paratrygoni, R. ditesticulum, R. tetralobatum, R. margaritense, R. biorchidum, and R. spinicephalum. All of these species have bothridia with medial longitudinal septa, a constriction at mid-bothridium, and, ...

in an electrically anisotropic media, current density  is not aligned with the electric field  and varies with the e-field direction. this can be considered as the spatial aliasing effects aroused by the subsurface structures whose individual dimensions are smaller than the inductive length scale of diffusively propagating em fields. the role of these structures is particularly significant in t...

Introduction Homocysteine is an amino-acidic product of methionine demethylation. Hyperhomocysteinemia (which is frequently found in schizophrenia (Nishi et al. 2014)) increases cardiovascular risk (Marti-Carvajal et al. 2009) and may trigger neuronal apoptosis (Mattson & Shea 2003). It may result from low folate intake (Selhub 2006), while folate deficiency is common in schizophrenia and may b...

We provide accounts of four species of Synelmis Chamberlin, 1919 (Annelida: Phyllodocida: Pilargidae) from Australian and adjacent seas, including one new species, S. sergi sp. nov. The only previous, positively identified, record of a Synelmis species in the region, S. gibbsi Salazar-Vallejo, 2003, has been checked and the specimens re-identified here as S. knoxi Glasby, 2003, which extends th...

Asexual stages of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum invade and replicate in human RBCs. During the 48 h of its asexual life cycle, the parasite dramatically remodels the host RBC (for reviews see Cooke et al., 2001, 2004). This includes the generation of unique, fl attened membranous structures in the cytoplasm of the infected RBC (IRBC) called Maurer’s clefts and protrusions on the IR...
