I was a schoolteacher and a resident of the Kuh Alavi neighborhood of Ahvaz. I am married and have three children. Initial Activities 2. My [cultural] activities began in 1989. I received my high school diploma in 1989-90 and from 1991-93, I was a university student majoring in education. Our activities at the time were limited to the distribution of statements and having connections with other groups in Mohammareh, Fallahiyeh1, Shush and other cities to hold cultural gatherings such as poetry readings. We did not engage in any other activities. Nevertheless, my file [with the security services] listed these activities as "intelligence-gathering" and "actions against national security." There was only one thing [that I did] that could have been considered very dangerous from the point of view of the Islamic Republic; my actions in relation to the sugarcane project.

This river is the longest river which located just inside Iran and Ahvaz Metropolis drinking water supplied from Karun River as well (fa.alalam.ir). Karun River as the main source of water treatment plants in Ahvaz, like most surface waters affected by various contaminants which caused changes in water quality of the river (www.aww.co.ir). Causes such as constructing several dams at upstream river, withdrawal of water from the upstream to the needs of other regions of Iran, exposure of various industries along the river and discharge of industrial and urban sewage into the river, seen that today this river is deteriorating rapidly, qua today is the depth of river reach to 1 m with a high concentration of pollutants (www.tasnimnews.com).

Iran ABSTRACT Background: The use of rural health houses is one of the important approaches for delivering health services but, inappro- priate infrastructures and limited resources make it difficult to design and implement plans to enhance and improve health services in rural areas. The aim of this study was to analyze the accessibility to rural health care services in the province of Khuzestan Materials and methods: This applied research was conducted in Khuzestan Province, south-west Iran with a cross-sectional approach in 2014. The population of the study was the villages and rural health houses. All the villages and rural health houses were included in the study without sampling. Descriptive data collected with a checklist from the Statistical Centre of Iran, IT Department of the Management Deputy of the Governor’s Office and Ahvaz Jundishapur and Dezful University of Medical Sciences and spatial data obtained from the national Cartographic Center.

Chamran University, Ahwaz, Iran The Gotvand reservoir dam is located at SW of Iran where the Karun River orients from the Zagros Mountains. The nominal volume is 5,500 million cubic meters. It is a rock-fills dam with clay core. The height of crown is about 180 m with 130 m normal water depth. Depth from bottom (0-30 m), the water layer’s electrical conductivity (EC) will be as 150,000 to 85,000 mµ/cm. Also the EC will decrease from depth (85-30 m) corresponding the water layer’s EC between 85,000 to 20,000 µm/cm. Finally, at depth (30-0.0 m) the EC is controlled with values (15,000-1,000 µm/cm). The salty domes will produce unexpected salty sediments into reservoirs. Consulting engineering said that more than 8,000,000 tons of pure salt sediments were interned into the Gotvand Lake reservoir from 2011 through 2015. If this regime of salty material continues, downstream agricultural lands will completely disturb and disuses.

Department of Plant Protection, Faculty of Agriculture, Shahrekord University, Shahrekord, Iran; E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Animal droppings constitute an ephemeral habitat where specialized invertebrate communities including significant abundance of mites live together. In order to study the Mesostigmata mites associated with manure, samples were taken from different manure types of domestic animals and poultry in Ahvaz and its vicinity in Khuzestan Province, southwestern of Iran, over a period of two years (2015-2017). Here we report 20 species belonging to eight families of Mesostigmata, among which 14 species are new records for the fauna of Khuzestan Province. The genus and species Leitneria pugio (Karg, 1961) is newly recorded from Iran. The genus and species were previously only recorded in Europe. Also, Uroobovella varians Hirschmann & Zirngiebl-Nicol, 1962 is recorded for the first time from Iran based on deutonymph stage. We further provide collection data for each species along with a key for known Iranian species of the genus Uroobovella. KEY WORDS: Mesostigmata; Manure-inhabiting mites; Uroobovella; Ahvaz; Iran. PAPER INFO.: Received: 9 May 2018, Accepted: 10 August 2018, Published: 15 October 2018 INTRODUCTION Animal manures possess a rich fauna of arthropods including significant abundance of mites.
