    Zootaxa 1588: 1–29 (2007) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2007 · Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) Namtokocoris Sites, a new genus of Naucoridae (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) in waterfalls of Indochina, with descriptions of six new species ROBERT W. SITES AND AKEKAWAT VITHEEPRADIT Enns Entomology Museum, Division of Plant Sciences, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri 65211, USA Abstract A new genus with six new species of Naucoridae inhabiting waterfalls of Indochina are described from a decade of aquatic insect collections in Thailand and Vietnam. Namtokocoris Sites NEW GENUS is diagnosed by a pair of promi- nent scutellar protuberances, the prosternal midline bears an expansive, thin, plate-like carina, the forelegs of both sexes have a one-segmented tarsus apparently fused with the tibia, and a single claw. Prominent linear series of stout hairs occur on the hemelytra, although this attribute is not unique within the subfamily. Despite the lack of sexual dimorphism in the forelegs, this new genus is a member of the subfamily Laccocorinae, an assignment based on other characters con- sistent with this subfamily. Character states of this genus are compared with those of other Asian genera of Laccocori- nae. The type species, Namtokocoris siamensis Sites NEW SPECIES, is widely distributed from northern through eastern Thailand in waterfalls of several mountain ranges. Namtokocoris khlonglan Sites NEW SPECIES was collected only at Namtok Khlong Lan at Khlong Lan National Park. Namtokocoris minor Sites NEW SPECIES was collected at two waterfalls near the border with Burma in Kanchanaburi Province and is the smallest species known.

    Catalyst ISSN 2408-137X, Volume 18, 2018 A Study of Risk Factors Leading to Road Accidents: Chachoengsao Province, Thailand Thanasak Kulchamorin and Danai Pattaphongse Abstract The objectives of this research were to study: 1) personal factors of automobile drivers in Chachoengsao Province, Thailand in the target population; 2) their driving behavior; 3) risk factors influencing the chance of having an accident; 4) measures used to avoid or reduce the impact of an accident; and 5) their attitudes towards both controllable and uncontrollable driving risks based upon their personal factors. The sample consisted of 400 drivers; statistics used included both descriptive and inferential statistics. The majority of respondents were female, married, 36-40 years of age, bachelor degree graduates, and worked for private enterprises. They had non-permanent driver licenses in their possession for 3-5 years and had 10-20 years driving experience. Their overall attitudes towards controllable risk factors showed high scores on a given rating scale. Among controllable risk factors influencing the chance of having an accident, in descending order of magnitude, were violation of a traffic light, violation of a speed limit, texting while driving, and no signal given to other drivers. Uncontrollable risk factors influencing the chance of having an accident, in descending order of magnitude, were drunk driving, driving on damaged roads, driving when the rate of traffic is high, and driving on narrow roads. Keywords: Risk factors, road accidents Introduction Sivak and Schoettle (2014) studied mortality from road crashes in 193 countries, and found that Thailand ranked #2 in the world in terms of the number of people killed (44 deaths per 100,000 persons) in road accidents after Namibia (45 deaths per 100,000 persons).
