A new genus, Colacogloea, is described in the auricularioid Heterobasidiomycetes having simple septal pores. The genus is based on Platygloea peniophorae, a mycoparasite of some Aphyllophorales species. It is a segregate from the heterogeneous Platygloea s.l. The most important distinguishing features of Colacogloea are (i) the frequently simultaneous presence of basidial and conidial stages, (ii) a dimorphic life cycle including a yeast phase, (iii) mycoparasitism by colacosomes, (iv) simple septal pores with rounded margins, but without associated electron-opaque bandings and globules, and (v) aseptate basidiospores. Key words: Heterobasidiomycetes, Platygloea, Colacogloea peniophorae, mycoparasitism, colacosomes.

Records of uredinia and telia production on the alternate hosts of Cronartium coleosporioides in British Columbia and inoculation of Castilleja miniata with aeciospores collected from various locations showed that rust isolates from dry areas of the interior of British Columbia do not produce uredinia and may have lost the ability to do so. Collections from somewhat wetter areas produced uredinia or mixtures of uredinia and telia immediately following aeciospore inoculations, and field collections from such areas in June commonly had mixtures of uredinia and telia. Loss of the uredinial stage may be a response to climates that are often unsuitable for the spread or survival of the rust on the alternate host. Key words: stalactiform rust, uredinia, telia, rust life cycle.

Six genera of the order Pleosporales are revised taxonomically. Although five genera have unusual applanate ascospores, they are members of three different families. Clathrospora (10 species, 2 new), Comoclathris (21 species, 7 new), and Macrospora (3 species) are placed in a new family Diademaceae in which the ascoma opening is a characteristic flat circular lid. Diademosa, a new genus with one species with terete ascospores is placed in Diademaceae. Graphyllium (3 species) is placed in the family Hysteriaceae characterized by hysterothecia with a slit-like opening. Platysporoides n.gen. (11 species, 1 new) is maintained in the Pleosporaceae because of the terete pored beak of the ascomata. Key words: Pleosporales, applanate ascospores, Clathrospora, Comoclathris, Macrospora, Diademosa, Graphyllium, Platysporoides.

A reconsideration of the diagnostic characters of Atya Leach and Atyoida Randall supports their generic separation. Accordingly, Atyoida is reinstated as a full genus of which the distinguishing features are slender third peraeopods with a relatively short merus, a tapering endopod in the male first pleopod and protandry. It includes three species, A. bisulcata Randall from the Hawaiian Islands, A. pilipes (Newport) widespread in the Indo-Pacific area, and A. striolata (McCulloch & McNeill) found only in Australia. A. striolata is fully redescribed. Morphological variation throughout its range is slight; no subspecies are distinguishable. It is suggested that larvae hatch in estuaries and that protandry is an adaptive life-cycle strategy.

<p>Parents are obliged to take care of their children’s future, especially by rendering sufficient education. Children are believed to bring about happiness every now and then, who generate family’s pride up to the almighty judication. Some people are save and some are not in that court, where children will give sigificant contribution in it. That’s why the children’s well being has become the parents obligation. To bring about children’s well being, parents should also render the good treatments during the life cycle of their children. The main duties of parents for their children are giving them the good names, sending them to the good schools where they can learn religion, and marry them to their good spouses. Psychologically, when children are sent to school for the first time, they will feel that they are put apart from parents’ care, so that may of them have to go difficult phase of adjustment. The adjustment includes that of education so as to run as naturally as possible. To get the naturality of the education delegation, teachers and educators are obliged to be able to nurture any value to students as naturally as possible. Parenting model of teaching serves the requirements of teaching children just the way the parrents do, so that it is assumptively effective in teaching elementary students by taking consideration on the psychologial aspect of children.</p><p> </p><p>Key words:   Parenting Model of teaching, children education optimalization</p>

Feldmann (1970: 249), quoting the results of Hustede (1960), who had shown that Bryopsis halymeniae Berthold (1882: 497) was the gametophyte of a Derbesia sp.[1], pointed out that this species could  not belong to the genus Bryopsis differing from it in chloroplasts with no pyrenoids and gametes without a stigma. On that basis, as well as because of its peculiar life cycle, he stated that Bryopsis halymeniae should  be considered the type of a new genus: Bryopsidella. Even though Feldmann (1970) did not explicitely propose the new combination Bryopsidella halymeniae, such a binomial was reported by Gallardo et al. (1993: 412, note 60) and by Boudouresque & Per-ret-Boudoure-sque (1987: 83).[1]A more complete paper showing that Derbesia neglecta and Bryopsis halymeniae are phases of one species, was later published by Hustede (1964).

A newly discovered species of Pliciloricus from the deep sea of the Angola Basin (Namibia, Atlantic) seems to have two types of postlarvae in its life cycle. Type I is a simplified but clearly identifiable postlarval stage, the other type II consists only of a thin layer of cuticle as the remnant of a postlarva. Both types contain adults that have moulted from them. The simplified type I postlarva has a fully developed lorica with an ornamentation identical to that of the adult, but other body regions are reduced with only a few structures left. The discovery of this clearly identifiable postlarva is important, because it supports the conclusion that Pliciloricus-species originally moults from postlarval stages as well as other taxa of Loricifera. Furthermore, it could be concluded that the simple cuticle layer surrounding most adults found during their metamorphosis is the remnant of a postlarval stage. The life cycle of the new species seems to include two phases. After to the bisexual is a unisexual phase, represented by a simplified parthenogenetic adult stage which lacks most parts of the adult morphology. The adults of P. diva sp. n. differ from other species in having among others (1) a mouth cone with four strong cuticular bars plus eight primary oral ridges; (2) leaf-like clavoscalids which are very broad basally and narrow distally, and have more than 22 transverse cross walls; (3) a strongly sclerotized double-organ consisting of four rami; (4) large spinoscalids of second row shorter than clavoscalids, (5) short type B spinoscalids of fourth row with claw-tips and with a double row of five teeth as well as distally with a double row of minute denticles; (6) an anterior margin of the lorica with bicuspid protrusions and specific crescent-shaped ornamentations; (7) a midventral plica with five bar-like transversal strengthened ridges. Distinguishing features of the Higgins-larva are (1) short clavoscalids with broad second segments; (3) a collar with seven flosculi located in small pits; posterolateral setae being short but strong and pod-like. The study also revealed new information about the double-organ of the adult and the buccal structures of the Higgins-larva.

There is no licenced vaccine against any human parasitic disease and Plasmodium falciparum malaria, a major cause of infectious mortality, presents a great challenge to vaccine developers. This has led to the assessment of a wide variety of approaches to malaria vaccine design and development, assisted by the availability of a safe challenge model for small-scale efficacy testing of vaccine candidates. Malaria vaccine development has been at the forefront of assessing many new vaccine technologies including novel adjuvants, vectored prime-boost regimes and the concept of community vaccination to block malaria transmission. Most current vaccine candidates target a single stage of the parasite's life cycle and vaccines against the early pre-erythrocytic stages have shown most success. A protein in adjuvant vaccine, working through antibodies against sporozoites, and viral vector vaccines targeting the intracellular liver-stage parasite with cellular immunity show partial efficacy in humans, and the anti-sporozoite vaccine is currently in phase III trials. However, a more effective malaria vaccine suitable for widespread cost-effective deployment is likely to require a multi-component vaccine targeting more than one life cycle stage. The most attractive near-term approach to develop such a product is to combine existing partially effective pre-erythrocytic vaccine candidates.

The overall life cycle, duration and survival rate of different developmental stages (egg, larva and pupa) of Catopsilia pyranthe conducted at 27 ± 3°C and RH 75% ± 2. showed that within 6.4 days 68% eggs hatched. The average duration from egg to adult, larval stage and pupal were 23.87, 10.93 and 6.8 days, respectively. Fifty six out of 68 larvae successfully completed their whole 5 instars. There were positive correlation among the larval instars, amount of food consumption and excretion of faeces. About 52% pupa were emerged as adult at laboratory condition.

Cintractia utriculicola, which produces sori in the spikelets of Rhynchospora spp., differs from typical Cintractia species by long sterile cells at the base of the sorus instead of a mycelial stroma with sporogenous pockets and by a persistent peridium of spherical cells. While in other Cintractia species the ornamentation of the teliospores originates at an undulated plasmalemma as an irregular surface of the exosporium, in Cintractia utriculicola warts develop on a smooth cell surface and are loosely connected to the exosporium. A new genus, Trichocintractia, is proposed for Cintractia utriculicola. Key words: Ustilaginales, Cintractia, Cintractia utriculicola, Trichocintractia utriculicola, soral morphology, spore wall ultrastructure.
