The new species is represented by specimens of the distinctive suborbital spine. The bifid suborbital spines are 1.8−3.0 mm in length. Their laterocaudal processes are thinner and shorter than their mediocaudal processes, and the lengths of the laterocaudal processes are about 1/3 of those of the mediocaudal ones. The lateral process of the spine is prominent. The new species most closely resembles †Cobitis primigenus from the Late Oligocene deposits of Germany, but in †C. nanningensis the lateral process of the suborbital spine is more developed. The discovery of the new species and other previously known fossils of Cobitis indicate that the Cobitidae family has had a wide distribution in Eurasia since at least Oligocene. Key words Nanning Basin, Guangxi; Early-Middle Oligocene; Cypriniformes, Cobitidae, suborbital spine Nanning Basin is a Paleogene inland faulted basin situated in the southern part of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, South China.

Its presence was officially announced in mainland China in Jan 2005. To date, it has been identified in 4 provinces in mainland China (Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Fujian) in a total of 31 municipal districts. The total area reported to be infested by S. invicta in late 2006 was about 7,120 ha, mainly in Guangdong Province (6,332 ha). Most of the re- ported human stings are in the heavily infested area around Wuchuan City. The most com- monly reported reactions have been abnormal redness of the skin, sterile pustules, hives, pain, and/or fever. It has been predicted that most of mainland China is viable habitat for red imported fire ants, including 25 of 31 provinces. The probable northern limit of expan- sion reaches Shandong, Tianjing, south Henan, and Shanxi provinces. Traditional and new insecticides including the bait N-butyl perfluorooctane sulfonamide and the contact insecti- cide Yichaoqing have been developed and used to control S. invicta. The Ministry of Agricul- ture and the Chinese government have established an 8-year eradication program (2006 to 2013) for S.

  • Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor?
    DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2015.16.8.3579 Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? RESEARCH ARTICLE Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? Wei Deng1&, Long Long2&*, Xian-Yan Tang3, Tian-Ren Huang1, Ji-Lin Li1, Min- Hua Rong1, Ke-Zhi Li1, Hai-Zhou Liu1 Abstract Geographic information system (GIS) technology has useful applications for epidemiology, enabling the detection of spatial patterns of disease dispersion and locating geographic areas at increased risk. In this study, we applied GIS technology to characterize the spatial pattern of mortality due to liver cancer in the autonomous region of Guangxi Zhuang in southwest China. A database with liver cancer mortality data for 1971-1973, 1990-1992, and 2004-2005, including geographic locations and climate conditions, was constructed, and the appropriate associations were investigated. It was found that the regions with the highest mortality rates were central Guangxi with Guigang City at the center, and southwest Guangxi centered in Fusui County. Regions with the lowest mortality rates were eastern Guangxi with Pingnan County at the center, and northern Guangxi centered in Sanjiang and Rongshui counties. Regarding climate conditions, in the 1990s the mortality rate of liver cancer positively correlated with average temperature and average minimum temperature, and negatively correlated with average precipitation. In 2004 through 2005, mortality due to liver cancer positively correlated with the average minimum temperature. Regions of high mortality had lower average humidity and higher average barometric pressure than did regions of low mortality.

Descriptions and figures for all taxa are provided, and taxa are compared with their closest congeners. An updated list of all cave atyid and palaemonid shrimp species found in China is provided. Caridina semiblepsia Guo, Choy and Gui, 1996 is here regarded as a junior subjective synonym of C. ablepsia Guo, Jiang and Zhang, 1992. One poorly known species, Typhlocaridina linyunensis Li and Luo, 2001, described from a cave in Guangxi is here shown to be a palaemonid instead of an atyid, and is actually the senior synonym of Macrobrachium lingyunense Li, Cai and Clarke, 2006.

    Rebellion of the Cadres: The 1967 Implosion of the Chinese Party-State Andrew G. Walder* ABSTRACT Accounts of the tumultuous initial phase of the Cultural Revolution portray party-state cadres primarily as targets of a popular insurgency. Cadres in Party and government organs in fact were themselves in widespread rebellion against their superiors after October 1966, and rebel cadres were a major force in the national wave of power seizures that destroyed the civilian state in early 1967. The rebellion was a form of bureaucratic politics in a setting characterized by rapidly shifting signals and high uncertainty, in which the rebels’ motives were generated after the onset of the Cultural Revolution. Cadres played a central role in the destruction of the political institutions to which their vested interests were inextricably linked. he Cultural Revolution initially impressed scholars as a window on inequal- Tity and group conflict in a type of society long characterized as totalitarian. Observers immediately noted evidence that a series of social constituencies mo- bilized to advance their claims.1 Sent-down youth, contract and temporary work- ers, students from politically stigmatized households, demobilized soldiers, and other groups organized to press their interests and make demands against Party authorities.2 Mass insurgencies that seemed to reflect underlying group tensions * The author gratefully acknowledges the substantive and editorial suggestions of the editors, Anita Chan and Jonathan Unger, and the critical comments of two reviewers.
