ISBN 978-5-94621-523-7 Bat gamasid mites is a highly specialized ectoparasite group which is of great interest due to strong isolation and other unique features of their hosts (the ability to fly, long distance migration, long-term hibernation). The book summarizes the results of almost 60 years of research and is the most complete summary of data on bat gamasid mites taxonomy, biology, ecol- ogy. It contains the first detailed description of bat wintering experience in sev- eral regions of the boreal Palaearctic. The book is addressed to zoologists, ecologists, experts in environmental protection and biodiversity conservation, students and teachers of biology, vet- erinary science and medicine.

It focuses primarily on the political campaign to ban the sport in the 1990s and the repercussions that campaign had on MMA itself. Furthermore, it examines the censorship of music and video games in the 1990s. The central argument of this work is that the political campaign to ban Mixed Martial Arts was part of a larger political movement to censor violent entertainment.

    UMI MICROFILMED 1990 INFORMATION TO USERS The most advanced technology has been used to photo­ graph and reproduce this manuscript from the microfilm master. UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be from any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, charts) are re­ produced by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand corner and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each original is also photographed in one exposure and is included in reduced form at the back of the book. These are also available as one exposure on a standard 35mm slide or as a 17" x 23" black and white photographic print for an additional charge. Photographs included in the original manuscript have been reproduced xerographically in this copy.

[email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected] RESUMEN. El objetivo principal de este estudio fue evaluar la diversidad de arañas del Área Natural Protegida Isla Quevedo. Se realizó un estudio comparativo de la riqueza y abundancia del orden Araneae en 3 tipos de vegetación: matorral espinoso, manglar y dunas. Los especímenes colectados se obtuvieron mediante 3 métodos: colecta manual, red de golpeo y trampas pitfall. Se obtuvieron 302 arañas en total, todas del suborden Araneomorphae, pertenecientes a 10 familias, 17 géneros y 22 especies. En el matorral espinoso se registraron 14 especies, 5 de las cuales se comparten con el manglar. Las 22 especies determinadas representan el primer inventario del orden Araneae para la isla. La mayor riqueza y abundancia se registró en el matorral espinoso, seguido por el manglar y después las dunas, lo cual comprueba que las arañas son abundantes en zonas de vegetación diversa. Palabras clave: Araneae, diversidad, Isla Quevedo, riqueza de especies, arañas. Diversity of spiders in Quevedo Island, Sinaloa, Mexico ABSTRACT. Main objective of this study was to evaluate the diversity of spiders at Protected Natural Area Quevedo Island. A comparative study of richness and abundance of Araneae order was made in 3 types of vegetation: thorn scrub, mangroves and dunes.

  • Hantavirus Infection: a Global Zoonotic Challenge
    VIROLOGICA SINICA DOI: 10.1007/s12250-016-3899-x REVIEW Hantavirus infection: a global zoonotic challenge Hong Jiang1#, Xuyang Zheng1#, Limei Wang2, Hong Du1, Pingzhong Wang1*, Xuefan Bai1* 1. Center for Infectious Diseases, Tangdu Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University, Xi’an 710032, China 2. Department of Microbiology, School of Basic Medicine, Fourth Military Medical University, Xi’an 710032, China Hantaviruses are comprised of tri-segmented negative sense single-stranded RNA, and are members of the Bunyaviridae family. Hantaviruses are distributed worldwide and are important zoonotic pathogens that can have severe adverse effects in humans. They are naturally maintained in specific reservoir hosts without inducing symptomatic infection. In humans, however, hantaviruses often cause two acute febrile diseases, hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS). In this paper, we review the epidemiology and epizootiology of hantavirus infections worldwide. KEYWORDS hantavirus; Bunyaviridae, zoonosis; hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome; hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome INTRODUCTION syndrome (HFRS) and HCPS (Wang et al., 2012). Ac- cording to the latest data, it is estimated that more than Hantaviruses are members of the Bunyaviridae family 20,000 cases of hantavirus disease occur every year that are distributed worldwide. Hantaviruses are main- globally, with the majority occurring in Asia. Neverthe- tained in the environment via persistent infection in their less, the number of cases in the Americas and Europe is hosts. Humans can become infected with hantaviruses steadily increasing. In addition to the pathogenic hanta- through the inhalation of aerosols contaminated with the viruses, several other members of the genus have not virus concealed in the excreta, saliva, and urine of infec- been associated with human illness.
