  • Filariasis and Its Control in Fujian, China
    REVIEW FILARIASIS AND ITS CONTROL IN FUJIAN, CHINA Liu ling-yuan, Liu Xin-ji, Chen Zi, Tu Zhao-ping, Zheng Guo-bin, Chen Vue-nan, Zhang Ying-zhen, Weng Shao-peng, Huang Xiao-hong and Yang Fa-zhu Fujian Provincial Institute of Parasitic Diseases, Fuzhou, Fujian, China. Abstract. Epidemiological survey of filariasis in Fujian Province, China showed that malayan filariasis, transmitted by Anopheles lesteri anthropophagus was mainly distributed in the northwest part and bancrof­ tian filariasis with Culex quinquefasciatus as vector, in middle and south coastal regions. Both species of filariae showed typical nocturnal periodicity. Involvement of the extremities was not uncommon in mala­ yan filariasis. In contrast, hydrocele was often present in bancroftian filariasis, in which limb impairment did not appear so frequently as in the former. Hetrazan treatment was administered to the microfilaremia cases identified during blood examination surveys, which were integrated with indoor residual spraying of insecticides in endemic areas of malayan filariasis when the vector mosquito was discovered and with mass treatment with hetrazan medicated salt in endemic areas of bancroft ian filariasis. At the same time the habitation condition was improved. These factors facilitated the decrease in incidence. As a result malayan and bancroftian filariasis were proclaimed to have reached the criterion of basic elimination in 1985 and 1987 respectively. Surveillance was pursued thereafter and no signs of resurgence appeared. DISCOVER Y OF FILARIASIS time: he found I male and 16 female adult filariae in retroperitoneallymphocysts and a lot of micro­ Fujian Province is situated between II S050' filariae in pulmonary capillaries and glomeruli at to 120°43' E and 23°33' to 28°19' N, on the south­ 8.30 am (Sasa, 1976).

In southern China, the red soil hilly area is a region with serious soil erosion and water and soil loss. In this study, the spatial distribution of soil erosion and its change induced by land use types were obtained with the spatial operation analysis technology of a geographic information system and the revised universal soil loss equation model (RUSLE). The results show that soil erosion is most very lightly eroded in the study area as a whole, and has a wide yet relatively concentrated distribution, namely spatial aggregation distribution. The average soil erosion rate is the highest in Zhenghe County, followed by Wuyishan City, Shunchang County and Changting County, and relatively low in other counties. Further analysis on soil erosion under different land use types shows that erosion is more serious in unused land, orchard, dry land and rural settlements, and less severe in grassland, urban land, woodland and paddy field.

The results show that the urbanisation level of the county areas in Fujian Province would be significantly increased if the urban characteristics resulting from in situ urbanisation were fully reflected, suggesting that the conventional urban statistics seriously underestimate the true extent of rural-urban transformation in the county areas. Furthermore, such underestimation is more serious in the coastal areas with most dynamic socioeconomic development, and thus distorts the true picture of the spatial pattern of rural-urban transformation.

  • Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamidae)
    Two new species and the molecular phylogeography of the freshwater crab genus Bottapotamon (Crustacea: Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamidae) Ning Gao, Ying-Yi Cui, Song-Bo Wang and Jie-Xin Zou Research Laboratory of Freshwater Crustacean Decapoda & Paragonimus, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Nanchang University, Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, China ABSTRACT Bottapotamon chenzhouense sp. n. and B. luxiense sp. n. are described from Hunan Province and Jiangxi Province, respectively. These species both have diagnostic features of the genus Bottapotamon and discernible characteristics as new species. B. chenzhouense sp. n. can be distinguished from co-geners by features such as the G1, which has a fold covering the surface of the entire subterminal article with a distal region. B. luxiense sp. n. has an elliptical carapace, and a sturdy and blunt terminal article of G1. The molecular phylogeny and biogeography of the genus Bottapotamon (Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamidae) were studied, using mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (mtDNA COI), 16S rRNA and nuclear histone H3 gene fragments. The results support the assignment of the two new species to the genus Bottapotamon. In addition, the divergence time of the genus Bottapotamon was estimated to be 3.49–1.08 Ma, which coincided with various vicariant and dispersal events that occurred in the geological area where the genus Bottapotamon is commonly distributed. Mountains appear to have played an important role in the distribution of this genus. The Wuyi Mountains gradually formed offshore and inland of southeastern China by the compression of the Pacific plate and the Indian plate in the Neogene-Quaternary, and the Luoxiao Mountains formed continuously in the continued forming in the north-south direction because of neotectonic movement, have resulted in the geographical distribution Submitted 9 June 2019 pattern of the genus Bottapotamon, which was also established gradually.

The result showed that, on one hand, basic features of rural development included stability overall level, remarkable growth trend, obvious regional characteristics on Minnan area, Northern area, a small part of Minxi area in Fujian province, and undulation of different regions in different periods of Fujian’s rural development. On the other hand, rural development in Fujian province, is striking influenced by geography, resources, economy and culture, and the characteristics of agricultural modernization, new urbanization and new rural construction are main driving factors. Ultimately, the four dominant types with Industry and Commerce Oriented (I), Agricultural Industry Oriented (II), Agriculture, Industry and Commerce Oriented (III), and Agricultural Leading (IV) of rural development was divided by cluster analysis.
