Mycosphere 5(1), 27–76, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/5/1/2 Abstract A total of 36 species of Hypogymnia are known from southwestern China. This region is a center of biodiversity for the genus. Hypogymnia capitata, H. nitida, H. saxicola, H. pendula, and H. tenuispora are newly described species from Yunnan and Sichuan. Olivetoric acid is new as a major lichen substance in Hypogymnia, occurring only in H. capitata. A key and illustrations are given for the species known from this region, along with five species from adjoining regions that might be confused or have historically been misidentified in this region. Key words – Lecanorales – lichenized ascomycetes – Parmeliaceae – Shaanxi – Sichuan – Tibet – Yunnan – Xizang. Introduction The first major collections of Hypogymnia from southwestern China were by Handel- Mazzetti, from which Zahlbruckner (1930) reported six species now placed in Hypogymnia, and Harry Smith (1921-1934, published piecewise by other authors; Herner 1988). Since the last checklist of lichens in China (Wei 1991), which reported 16 species of Hypogymnia from the southwestern provinces, numerous species of Hypogymnia from southwestern China have been described or revised (Chen 1994, Wei & Bi 1998, McCune & Obermayer 2001, McCune et al.

  • SNOW LEOPARDS from the CAR, Qinghai
    Qinghai 2017 Richard Webb SNOW LEOPARDS FROM THE CAR Qinghai: 27 February to 12 March 2017 Richard Webb CONTENTS Introduction Itinerary Logistics Mammal-watching sites 1. Guides 2. Flights Mammals 3. Visas 4. Accommodation Birds Qinghai Map INTRODUCTION I first saw Snow Leopard in Kazakhstan in 2003, well before Ladakh became the place to see the species. Plans to visit Ladakh have twice had to be aborted for health reasons and when it became apparent that Terry Townshend, and Jean-Michel Bompar (who had travelled with Sid Francis’s business partner, Roland) had both had success in southern Qinghai in 2016 I decided to give it a go with Sid Francis. 1 Qinghai 2017 Richard Webb It appeared a great move when we saw two leopards from the car within four hours of reaching the first site and although we only had one further sighting in the next nine days, we also heard leopards calling on at least two days and received what appeared to be reliable reports from yak herders of two leopards being seen in another of the valleys on a regular basis. It is unlikely that the area will ever rival Hemis in Ladakh in terms of its reliability for sightings given the number of well-trained leopard-spotters operating in that area. However the area appears to have potential with comfortable accommodation within 75 minutes’ drive of the sites and would be worth further investigation. I strongly recommend that anyone wanting to give it a try contacts Sid Francis to organise a trip at [email protected].

The amplified fragments were sequenced and compared with each other to build a phylogenetic tree. The mRNA deep sequencing approach was adopted to identify differentially expressed T. matsutake genes among the transcriptomes developed from a Xiaojin sample. A phylogenetic analysis of the aligned sequences was performed using maximum-likelihood (ML) and neighbor-joining (NJ) analyses. The results clearly showed that the KD (KM657344) and BT (KM657342) strains were more closely related to each other than to other strains. Moreover, T. matsutake from Sichuan differed from those specimens derived from Heilongjiang, Yunnam, and Guizhou provinces of China, Finland, and Japan. Furthermore, there was extremely high homology among these T. matsutake samples, despite some genetic variation. In addition, the genome of T. matsutake was sequenced using Illumina sequencing technology (RNA-seq).

Several methods were used to estimate 30 from site profiles with borehole depths of about 20 m for the strong-motion stations located in Southwest China. The methods implemented include extrapolation (constant and gradient), Geomatrix Site Classification correlation with shear-wave velocity, and remote sensing (terrain and topography). The gradient extrapolation is the preferred choice of this study for sites with shear-wave velocity profile data. However, it is noted that the coefficients derived from the California data set are not applicable to sites in Southwest China. Due to the scarcity of borehole profiles data with depth of more than 30 m in Southwest China, 73 Kiknet profiles were used to generate new coefficients for gradient extrapolation. Fortunately, these coefficients provide a reasonable estimate of 30 for sites in Southwest China. This study showed 30 could be estimated by the time-average shear-wave velocity (average slowness) of only 10 meters of depth.

Kangba Luhuo is the earliest and the only paleohuman activity area with primary strata, and it is the cultural center for the communication between south, agriculture and North and animal husbandry. Taking kangba Luhuo place-names as the research object, this paper traces the historical relics of Ergong language, in order to discuss that Kangba Luhuo is the central area of Ergong language. 1. Introduction Luhuo is located in Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, ganzi Prefecture in the north and central part of Sichuan Province. It is adjacent to Daofu County in the east, Ganzi County in the northwest, Xinlong County in the southwest, Seda County in the north, and Rangtang and Jinchuan counties in Aba Prefecture in the northeast. Line 317 of Sichuan and Tibet runs through the whole country from southeast to northwest. The Liaohuo county calendar is an important thoroughness to Tibet and the important town of tea and horse ancient road. Luhuo is the center of North Kang, traffic, is a semi - agricultural semi - pastoral area. Stove huo is on the river of fresh water. Xianshui River, a tributary of yalong River on the left bank, was named Xianshui river and Zhoujiang River in ancient times. It originated at the south foot of Bayankala Mountain in Dali County, Qinghai Province, and was named Niqu or Nike River in the north.

  • Characteristics of Ground Motion Parameters in the 2008 Ms 8.0 Wenchuan Earthquake
    Characteristics of ground motion parameters in the 2008 Ms 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake J.J. Hu & L.L. Xie Key Laboratory of Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Vibration，Institute of Engineering Mechanics, CEA SUMMARY: The near field earthquake ground motions and engineering damage distribution caused by the great 2008 Ms 8.0 Sichuan Wenchuan earthquake was investigated to identify the rupture directivity effect. Statistical result indicates that this thrust faulting earthquake, dominated by the unilateral rupture propagation, caused a distinct rupture directivity effect on the ground motion recordings. Specifically, acceleration in forward direction is larger than that of the backward direction, and the difference depends on the rupture distance to the fault; response spectra in the forward direction is higher than that of the backward direction, especially for longer natural period; the difference between the forward and backward direction may reach 2~4 times on average. Keywords: Wenchuan earthquake, ground motion parameter, directivity, engineering damage 1. THE GREAT WENCHUAN EARTHQUAKE On May 12, 2008, a great earthquake of magnitude Ms 8.0 occurred in Sichuan province, China. The epicenter located (N31.0N, 103.4E) in Wenchuan county, which is only 21 km to Dujingyan city and 75 km to the provincial capital Chendu. This earthquake caused severe engineering damage with huge economic loss and death toll. The earthquake affected an extensive area of places, including Sichuan, Gansu, Shanxi, Chongqing, Yunnan and Ningxia. It also caused a large number of land slids and quake-lakes. The seismic intensity in the epicenter region reaches XI degree. Inversion of fault mechanics and field survey show that the rupture nucleated in Yingxiu town, then propagated to the north east direction.
