For the first time the resulting data of flies investigation (Diptera, Muscidae) in Samara Oblast territory are given. Up to the present time the revealed fauna of the houseflies is differed by the high taxonomic diversity and includes 75 species belonging to 26 genera. Among them 11 are the most frequent species Coenosia mollicula Fll., Coenosia testacea R.-D., Helina ciliatocosta Ztt., Helina moedlingensis Schnabl, Hydrotaea ignava Harris, Musca domestica L., Muscina levida Harris, Mydaea setifemur Ringdahl, Neomyia cornicina F., Pyrellia vivida R.-D. and Thricops semicinereus Wied. consisted of 15% of the all species regional muscid diversity. Main body of revealed muscid fauna in the region are represented by widely distributed and palaearctic species (by 45% in each group of distribution). Faunistic complex of muscid is characterized by richness of biotope clustering, habitat versatility of mostly species, and the most intensive flying period of the main species imagoes is noted in the summer period. It is supposed that compound of family in the generic level is revealed approximately of 79% and it is additionally expected 7 genera. Specific compound of the family is revealed approximately of 64% and it is additionally expected about 43 species of muscid in Samara Oblast fauna

Following the revision of the three Palaearctic species of the genus Hoplomachus, it appeared that the sole Nearctic species Hoplomachus affiguratus is misplaced in this genus. In addition to a redescription of its external morphology, the male and female genitalia are illustrated for the first time. A generic level analysis of presumedly related Phylinae lead us to erect Delphiphylus n. gen. with its only included species Delphiphylus affiguratus (Uhler, 1895) n. comb.

The composition of many Chenopodiaceae genera in different parts of Himalaya and Tibet has been insufficiently known or contradictory. A revision of the family in Himalaya including Bhutan, Nepal, parts of India (Himachal Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Sikkim and Uttarakhand) and Tibet (Xizang, China) is presented for the first time. Altogether, 57 species from 20 genera are reported, including three species new to science (Agriophyllumtibeticum,SalsolaaustrotibeticaandSalsolahartmannii).Atriplexcentralasiatica,CorispermumdutreuiliiandSalsolamonopteraare identified as new records for India andChenopodiumpamiricumis recorded in China for the first time.DysphaniaambrosioidesandSympegmaregeliiare recorded for Xizang. The generic and species keys, species distributions (including maps) and taxonomic notes are provided. We indicate for the first time that the presence of short yellow hairs is the remarkable morphological characteristic of the genusGrubovia. Evident heterocarpy and heterospermy is found inDysphaniafor the first time (Dysphaniatibetica).Agriophyllumpungens,Atriplexcrassifolia,Atriplexlaciniata,Atriplexsagittata,Axyrisamaranthoides,Axyrishybrida,Bassiaindica,Corispermumkorovinii,Dysphaniaschraderiana(=Chenopodiumfoetidumauct.),HalocharisviolaceaandSuaedamicrospermaare excluded from the species list.Neobotrydiumcorniculatumis synonymised withDysphaniakitiae,NeobotrydiumlongiiwithDysphaniahimalaicaandNeobotrydiumornithopodumseems to be conspecific withDysphanianepalensis.Corispermumladakhianumis a new synonym ofCorispermumtibeticum.Amaranthusdiandrusis added to the synonyms ofAcroglochinpersicarioides, andBassiafiedleri, previously considered as conspecific withGruboviadasyphylla, is added to the synonymy ofBassiascoparia. Lectotypes ofAnabasisglomerata(≡Halogetonglomeratus),Halogetontibeticus(=Halogetonglomeratus),Amaranthusdiandrus(=Acroglochinpersicarioides),Chenopodiumtibeticum(≡Dysphaniatibetica),Corispermumdutreuilii,Corispermumfalcatum,Corispermumlhasaense, Corispermumpamiricumvar.pilocarpum (=Corispermumgelidum, syn. nov.),Corispermumtibeticum,Kochiaindica(≡Bassiaindica),Kochiaodontoptera(≡Bassiaodontoptera) andSalsolamonopteraare selected. Out of 53 native elements, 42 are restricted in their distribution to Himalaya and Tibet at altitudes 2000–4500 m above sea level. The greatest taxonomic diversity of the Chenopodiaceae is represented in Jammu and Kashmir (India) and Xizang (China) with a continuous decrease in the number of species southwards.

A taxonomic revision of the family Chenopodiaceae in Nepal with new diagnostic keys, descriptions and detailed distribution patterns is here presented for the first time. 24 species from 13 genera are reported. The apophytes in Himalaya are found in both ruderal and segetal plant communities in contrast to Chenopodiaceae in temperate parts of Eurasia which prefer ruderal places only. The Himalaya and West Tibet are considered to be the regions with the greatest taxonomic diversity of native Dysphania in Eurasia. Chenopodium perttii is described as new for science, and its differences from other related taxa are described, including its unique minute-papillate (almost smooth when dry) pericarp. C. bengalense seems to be an older name for the taxa known as C. giganteum or C. album subsp. amaranticolor. The lectotypes of Chenopodium giganteum, C. album subsp. yunnanense, C. aristatum f. muticum (here synonymized with Dysphania kitiae) and Microgynoecium tibeticum are designated. Both lectotype and epitype for Atriplex bengalensis (basionym of C. bengalense), C. giganteum and the re-instated species C. pallidum are designated.

Initially, Oliver Twist (1839) might seem representative of the archetypal male social plot, following an orphan and finding him a place by discovering the father and settling the boy within his inheritance. But Agnes Fleming haunts this narrative, undoing its neat, linear transmission. This reconsideration of maternal inheritance and plot in the novel occurs against the backdrop of legal and social change. I extend the critical consideration of the novel's relationship to the New Poor Law by thinking about its reflection on the bastardy clauses. And here, of course, is where the mother enters. Under the bastardy clauses, the responsibility for economic maintenance of bastard children was, for the first time, legally assigned to the mother, relieving the father of any and all obligation. Oliver Twist manages to critique the bastardy clauses for their release of the father, while simultaneously embracing the placement of the mother at the head of the family line. Both Oliver and the novel thus suggest that it is the mother's story that matters, her name through which we find our own. And by containing both plots – that of the father and the mother – Oliver Twist reveals the violence implicit in traditional modes of inheritance in the novel and under the law.

Teen pregnancy provides many disadvantages for health, mental, psychological, economic well-being, career opportunities, poverty, and the future life. The aim of the study was to identify the determinants underlying teen pregnancy incidence. This study was a quantitative study with categorical analytic method. The study design used a case control with two comparison groups. The groups were control group and case group. The population in this study was all women who lived in the Wonosari, Sukosari, and Krajan Pandansari district and had or were pregnant for the first time at the age of less than 20 years old. Seventy three respondents were recruited using cluster sampling technique. The case group consists of women who were or had pregnant for the first time at the age of less than 20 years old and their children are currently aged ≤ 1 years old. The control group consists of women who were pregnant for the first time at the age of > 20 years old. The data was collected using a questionnaire. The findings showed that education, history of teen pregnancy in family and the age of marriage were related to the incidence of teen pregnancy after being controlled by information access. Low-educated respondents had 20.8 times higher chance of experiencing teen pregnancy; respondents with a history of teen pregnancy in the family had 4.9 times higher chance of experiencing teen pregnancy; respondents who were married at the age of < 20 years old had 12.1 times higher chance of experiencing teen pregnancy; respondents with poor understanding of condom use had 5.9 times higher chance of teenage pregnancy. In conclusion, the findings suggest to build good interactions in the family based on education and a good understanding of sex education.
