Constructing an XML database of linguistics data
(2010)
A language-oriented, multi-dimensional database of the linguistic charactersitics of the Hebrew text of the Old Testament can enable researchers to do ad hoc queries. XML is a suitable technology to transform free text ...
Phylogeny and systematics of the Sesamia coniota Hampson species group (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae: Noctuinae: Apameini: Sesamiina), with the description of three new species from the Afrotropical region
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)
In this study, we review six morphologically similar species of Sesamia Guenée, 1852 from Africa, including three new species that are described: Sesamia corymbosus Le Ru n. sp., S. schoenoplectus Le Ru n. sp. and S. ...
Steinernema litchii n. sp. (Rhabditida: Steinernematidae), a new entomopathogenic nematode from South Africa
(Brill, 2017)
During a survey in the Mpumalanga province of South Africa, a Steinernema species was isolated from a soil sample taken from a litchi orchard. Steinernema litchii n. sp. can be separated from other, closely related, species ...
Description of Acrobeles aenigmaticus sp. n. (Rhabditida: Cephalobidae), an unusual species with a poorly developed vulva, from the Kalahari Desert (Ngamiland, Botswana)
(Brill, 2019)
Acrobeles aenigmaticus sp. n. is described from the North-West District (Ngamiland) of Botswana, which forms part of the Kalahari Desert. This new species is characterised by its body length, ‘double’ cuticle bearing ...
To the knowledge of Oribatid mites of the subgenus Galumna (Galumna) Heyden 1826 (Acari, Oribatida, Galumnidae) in South Africa, with a key to species known from the Ethiopian region
(Hayka, 2018)
A new species of Galumna (Oribatida, Galumnidae) is described from moss (Sphagnum sp.) growing in a seepage area below a permanent spring in South Africa; Galumnasphagni sp. n. is similar to G. baloghi Wallwork 1965, but ...
Molecular characterization of a new Trypanosoma (Megatrypanum) theileri isolate supports the two main phylogenetic lineages of this species in Japanese cattle
(Springer, 2019)
Trypanosoma (Megatrypanum) theileri is a cosmopolitan, usually non-pathogenic, trypanosome of cattle transmitted by blood-sucking arthropods, mainly tabanid flies. Several T. theileri strains isolated from domestic and ...
Characterisation of some Scutellonema species (Tylenchida: Hoplolaimidae) occurring in Botswana, South Africa, Costa Rica and the USA, with description of S. clavicaudatum sp. n. and a molecular phylogeny of the genus
(Brill, 2017)
The genus Scutellonema contains more than 40 species of spiral nematodes with enlarged phasmids called scutella. In this
study, we provide morphological and molecular characterisation of S. clavicaudatum sp. n., S. ...
Resolution of the identity of three species of Diplostomum (Digenea: Diplostomidae) parasitising freshwater fishes in South Africa, combining molecular and morphological evidence
(Elsevier, 2020)
Reliable data on the diversity of the genus Diplostomum (Digenea: Diplostomidae) parasitising freshwater fishes in South Africa, as well as in Africa, is almost non-existent. Most of the morphology-based identifications ...
Nagumoea serrata, a new diatom species (Bacillariophyceae) found on seagrass from the south-eastern coast of Africa (Indian Ocean)
(Czech Phycological Society, 2020)
A novel diatom species belonging to the genus Nagumoea is described based on detailed light and scanning electron microscopy observations. The new taxon was found abundantly in several samples collected from seagrass on ...
Morphological and molecular characterisation of Aporcelaimellus nigeriensis sp. n. (Dorylaimida: Aporcelaimidae), a remarkable dorylaim from Nigeria
(Brill, 2020)
A new species of Aporcelaimellus, collected in a watermelon field in Nigeria, is described, including its morphological and molecular (D2-D3 28S-rDNA, 18r-DNA) characterisation. Aporcelaimellus nigeriensis sp. n. is ...
