In this experiment six healthy adult dairy Jersey cattles and eight calves (aged 4-6 months) were selected to measure temperature of different body skin sites, rectal temperature, respiration and heart rates during summer and winter. Body sites maximum and minimum temperature in calves during summer belonged to the ear, forehead, right flank, abdomen (38.4-38.9 ˚C) and carpus (32 ˚C). This was ...

Two new species of the aorid Amphipoda are described from Chichijima Island, Ogasawara Islands in Japan. Aoroides macrops sp. nov. shallow water is characterized by heavily setose male gnathopod 1, coxa which bears several plumose setae anteriorly, and uropod 2 with a short inter-ramal process. This very similar to A. longimerus Ren Zheng, 1996; however, this can be distinguished larger eyes, s...

Macrobrachium prabhakarani new species is described from the Vamanapuram River, Kerala, S. India. The species shares certain characters with M. scabriculum and M. madhusoodani, while it differs remarkably from these two species in distinctive diagnostic characters: rostral formula 12–14/1–2 with 5–7 postorbital teeth; carapace smooth with distal end of rostrum directed forwards; chelae with nin...

During the last two decades, increased knowledge of functional anatomy and pathophysiology of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) have contributed to a change in surgeons' perspective toward it. The earlier concept of the TFCC as the "hammock" structure of the ulnar carpus has updated to the "iceberg" concept, whereby the much larger "submerged" part represents the foveal insertions of...
