Vibrio species are the major seafood-borne bacteria that are frequently associated with the consumption of contaminated sea food. A total of 113 samples including 58 fish and 55 shrimps were studied for the possible contamination with Vibrio species. A biochemical protocol was applied for the identification of the Vibrio isolates and Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was carried out to confirm th...

The extant Nearctic species of Dryinus Latreille, 1804 group 1 are revised. A new species is described from the USA, New Mexico, Eddy County: D. splendidus Guglielmino & Olmi, sp. nov. A new combination is proposed for D. wetmorei (Olmi, 1984), comb. nov. (from Richardsidryinus Moczar). A new key to the females of the extant Nearctic species of Dryinus group 1 is presented.
