The present study deals two new alpheid shrimp species from the transisthmian Salmoneus ortmanni (Rankin, 1898) complex. Salmoneus alvarezi sp. nov. is described based on materials collected in Bahía Málaga, Colombia, and Punta Morales, Costa Rica, and is closely related to the western Atlantic S. ortmanni and S. wehrtmanni Anker, 2011. Salmoneus malagensis sp. nov. is described based on specim...

Strategic application of moxidectin pour-on (Cydectin) was evaluated in Uganda for its effect on pasture larval counts and gastrointestinal nematode faecal egg counts in village cattle kept under tethering (semi-intensive) grazing management. The strategic deworming schedule involved treating cattle twice at an interval of 2 months, at the end of the 1st wet season and during the 2nd wet season...

A draft genome for Corynebacterium afermentans LCDC 88-0199(T) was investigated. The size of the genome was 2,345,615 bp with an observed G+C content of 64.85%. Annotation revealed 2 rRNA sequences, 54 tRNA genes, and 2,164 coding sequences. Genome coverage was 85× and consisted of 24 contigs with an N50 of 187,988 bp.

This paper reviews the information available over last 20 years on studies of temporal variability parasitic infections caused by crustaceans fish in Mexican territory. The possible responses these to changes aquatic ecosystems anthropogenic climate change are described. By studying intensity infection Argulus yucatanus (a case study parasite fish), response water temperature can be detected. I...
