JI xyloidea, Cleroidea, Cucujoidea (Band 4) sowie die Tenebrionoidea (Band 5). Am vorderen Einband und im Vorspann findet sich je eine Zeichnung des Endomychiden Eucteanus coelestinus (GERSTAECKER, 1857) – im Abbildungstext jedoch irrtümlich als “Eutectanus” bezeichnet (Bd. 4) und des Ripiphoriden Ptilophorus fallax IABLOKOFF-KHNZORIAN, 1973 (Bd. 5). Abstract Die beiden Bände sind berühmten europäischen Koleopterologen gewidmet: Karel Majer (1949–2000) bzw. Gustav Adolf Lohse (1910–1994). Six species of the genus Pelthydrus ORCHYMONT, 1919 (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae) are recorded from Hainan Island (China). Three of these species (Pelthydrus angulatus sp.n., P. tongi sp.n., and P.

Hainan, China. Band 5 enthält 23 Familien mit mehr als 21.000 Taxa-Namen und 4.880 Primärzitate, welche vor dem Stichtag (1. Jänner 2007 – nicht 2005, wie im Katalog irrtümlich auf Seite 10 angegeben) publiziert wurden. Die Liste der Autoren enthält 27 Namen. Der Autor bei den Tenebrionidae heißt jedoch nicht „Masomuto“ (sowohl in der Autorenliste als auch in der Adressenliste falsch geschrieben) sondern Introduction Masumoto (mit mehr als 200 Publikationen seit 1955 einer der bekanntesten Koleopterologen Japans).

Thirteen of these species occur in China, however, not a single species has so far been Das Artenregister zu den beiden Bänden ist nicht im Buch abgedruckt, sondern nur in der von den recorded from Hainan (GENTILI et al. 1995; HANSEN 1999, 2004; KOMAREK 2003; SCHÖNMANN Herausgebern im Zusammenhang mit taxonomischen Katalogen als höchst ungeeignet empfundenen 1994, 1995). elektronischen Form verfügbar (http://www.apollobooks.com/palaearcticindex.htm und http://www.ville- ge.ch/musinfo/mhng/divers/palstaph-index04.pdf [bzw. „index05.pdf“]).

Korrekturen sucht man hingegen vergeblich, z.B. dass der Name Kodada (Band 3, p. 60, New replacement names, Stenelmis zhangi) falsch geschrieben wurde. The high number of new species (50 %) corroborates the fact, that Hainan is remarkably rich in Recht umfangreich sind auch wieder die „New nomenclatorial and taxonomic acts“, wobei man sich die endemic species (see also JÄCH & JI 1998a). Frage stellen sollte, wie sinnvoll die Verfügbarmachung von phylogenetisch nicht abgesicherten Gat- tungsnamen (z.B. Paulusiella Mandl) ist. Meiner Meinung nach hätte man in solchen Fällen die jeweiligen Spezialisten mit einbeziehen sollen. Eine Verfügbarmachung aus rein formalen Gründen ist Material and methods taxonomisch nicht vertretbar und nicht im Sinne der Nomenklaturregeln.

    Expanding the coverage and strengthening the management of wetland protected areas in Sichuan Province, China Pest Management Plan (Approved by CI-GEF Project Agency 2017-11-17) 1. The Main Purpose of Developing Pest Management Plan As a result of considerable work on removal of alien and invasive species (AIS), CI has developed guidelines for the use of chemical products and a format for a Pest Management Plan (PMP). A PMP is prepared by the Executing Entity when required by the CI-GEF Project Agency to ensure the use of best practice in the control and removal of alien and invasive plants, insects, and animals in compliance with GEF Environmental and Social Safeguards. 1. Brief Introduction of the Project Expanding the coverage and strengthening the management of wetland protected areas in Sichuan Province, China (hereafter shorten as “The project”) aims to expand and strengthen wetland protected areas in Sichuan Province China and also to mainstream biodiversity conservation and sustainable utilization of wetland resources. The project has two main components of which one focuses on strengthening site level management and standard raised for two wetland parks, namely:1) Xichang-Qionghai Wetland Park, and 2) Xinjin-Baihetan Wetland Park. The project doesn’t plan to promote agricultural production or change landscape by planting or transplanting. Accordingly, it has no attempt to use chemical pesticides. In the two wetland parks, farmers’ land rights have been requisitioned by local governments and agriculture have been totally given-up. Around the two wetland parks especially Xichang-Qionghai, farmers still plant cash crops and use peptides heavily.

  • Initial Exploration of a Protection System for Historical and Cultural Towns and Villages in Hainan, China
    Structural Studies, Repairs and Maintenance of Heritage Architecture XV 297 INITIAL EXPLORATION OF A PROTECTION SYSTEM FOR HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL TOWNS AND VILLAGES IN HAINAN, CHINA WANG ZHENYU Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, China ABSTRACT The long course of Chinese national history runs from a remote source. Since China has a vast territory, different regions formed a variety of regional cultures with different natural environments and era evolutions. Historical and cultural towns and villages not only exist as individual entities, but also as integrated urban and rural settlements and regional cultures. This paper presents the methodologies for the protection of historical towns and villages in the phase of systematic planning in Hainan Province. The research begin with looking at Hainan’s regional culture, adopting the research method of anthropology and regional heritage to retrace the culture of Hainan’s towns and villages, analysing the status quo, and on this basis, building a framework of Hainan historical towns and villages in promotion of its rational protection and development. Keywords: historical and cultural towns and villages, land use, Meso-scale space unit, non-motor- vehicle travel. 1 INTRODUCTION Hainan is a tropical island in southern China with beautiful scenery; its special natural environment has created an exotic culture. Today, most people see Hainan as an international scenic spot; however, less attention is paid to Hainan’s culture and traditions, which, to some extent, results in a lack of cultural construction. Historical and cultural villages and towns are important space carriers of Hainan culture; therefore, the construction of provincial-level historical and cultural towns and villages to protect the historical and cultural heritage of Hainan is essential.

The most significant differences from the closest species, P. vinhii, are that P. moi has subentire labellum, two longitudinal labellum keels that extend from middle of the hypochile to 2/3 of the length of the epichile and thickened at the ends; the rachis is also straight. Key words: Chinese Orchidaceae, Coelogyninae Introduction. Panisea (Lindley) Lindley (1854: 1) belongs to the subtribe Coelogyninae (Orchidaceae); in the genus there are about 11 species, ranging from northern part of tropical Asia almost to Indochina and the Himalayas (Seidenfaden 1975, Chen 1980, Lund 1987, Averyanov & Averyanova 2006, and Subedi et al. 2011). Panisea differs from its allies by its subequal perianth segments and a more or less sigmoid labellum base. There are five Panisea species in China, one endemic (Chen et al. 2009). During our botanical expedition to Hainan Island in March 2011, we found a new species described below.

The lichen is characterized by erumpent lirellae with a lateral to complete thalline margin, large transparent transversely septate ascospores, and the presence of norstictic acid. Hemithecium chlorocarpum is reported as a new record from China. A checklist and key to Hemithecium species from China are presented. Key word—Ascomycota, Graphidaceae, Ostropales, Ostropomycetidae, taxonomy Introduction The lichenized fungal genus Hemithecium Trevis. (Graphidaceae, Ostopales) has been recently revised (Staiger 2002; Staiger et al. 2006; Lücking et al. 2008; Rivas Plata et al. 2012, 2013; Lumbsch et al. 2014; Miadlikowska et al. 2014). The genus is characterized by its crustose thalli, lirelliform apothecia, well- developed convergent labia, concealed discs, non-carbonized exciples, simple paraphyses, and hyaline transversely septate or muriform ascospores. Hemithecium contains about 50 species worldwide (Staiger 2002, Upreti et al. 2011, Sharma et al. 2012). Miao et al. (2007) reported three species of Hemithecium (H. chapadanum, H. chlorocarpoides, and H. chrysenteron) as new records from China, which Lücking et al. (2008) since placed in the invalid genus “Pallidogramme”. During the compilation of the Flora Lichenum Sinicorum, five Hemithecium species were recognized in China (Jia et al.
