Lakshadweep, one of the smallest Union Territories of India, consists of 12 atolls, three reefs and fi ve submerged banks and 10 of its 36 Islands (area 32 sq.km.) are inhabited. Though the islands are unique in their ecosystem, no extensive faunal survey has yet been undertaken. Considering the fact, a survey was undertaken in Agatti Island, Lakshadweep for short duration and collected insects and mites. The study of soil inhabiting acarines revealed 10 species of oribatid mites including one new species of the genus Striatoppia Balogh, 1958 which is described here.- Oribatid Mites (Acari: Oribatida) of Lakshadweep

Oribatid mites are one of the major components of soil microarthropod groups. They are classifi ed as class arachnida and subclass acari. The body generally divisible into two distinct regions like the cephalothorax and abdomenl which possesses 4 pairs of jointed legs and have no wings and antennae. These mites take part in soil organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, etc. and thus increase the soil fertility.- New Species of Indotritia Jacot, 1929 (Acarina : Oribatida) from Lakshadweep, India

Lakshadweep is one of the smallest Union Territories of India. The first ever study of soil inhabiting oribatid mites from Lakshadweep reveled one new species under the genus Indotritia Jacot, 1929. Only two species of Indotritia were reported so far from India (Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and Kashmir). The family and genus are reported here for the first time from Lakshadweep.Keywords

The formerly known Laccadive, Amini and Minicoy group of Islands in the Arabian sea were named as Lakshadweep in the year 1973 to form one of the smallest Union Territories of India. Lakshadweep archipelago consists of 12 atolls, three reefs and five submerged banks with 10 of its 36 Islands (area 32 sq.km.) being inhabited. Scientific expeditions in the area as such can never be restricted to small land mass but must cover a lagoon area of 42 sq. km., territorial waters of 20,000 km. and the exclusive economic zone of 4,00,000 sq.km.- Ants (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Formicidae) of Bethuadahari Wildlife Sanctuary, Nadia, West Bengal, India

Climate change have impacts on marine, terrestrial and limnetic systems, and hence will influence future biological diversity of the globe. Present day Polar Regions experience greater rates of climatic change than elsewhere on the earth. The smallest shift of climate may threat to these uniquely adapted fauna of this extreme environment. However, some small areas of terrestrial habitat still supporting terrestrial and limnetic biotas have been continuously available for periods of time ranging from the several million to only a few thousand years.Keywords

Sewage is water carried wastes, in either solution or suspension, that is intended to flow away from a community. It is more than 99. 9% pure water and is characterized by its volume or rate of flow, its physical condition, its chemical constituents and the bacterial organisms that it contains. Sewage water is a complex matrix with many distinctive chemical characteristics. These include high concentrations of ammonium, nitrate, phosphorus, high conductivity (due to high dissolved solids), high alkalinity, with pH typically ranging between 7 & 8.- Feasibility Study Regarding Re-Introduction of Pygmy Hog (Porcula salvania Hodgson, 1847) at Gorumara National Park, Jalpaiguri, West Bengal

von Heyden (1826) established the genus Galumna with Notaspis alata Hermann, 1804 from Germanyas the type underthe family Galumnidae Jacot, 1925. The super family Galumnoidea Jacot, 1925 is one of the superfamilies under suborder Cryptostigmata of the order Acarina. These mites are commonly known as galumnid mites. The“characteristically-shaped” galumnid mites possess two wing-like “pteromorphae” at both sidesofnotogastergivingthema conspicuous look. Most of these mites are highly pigmented and heavily sclerotized.- Two New Species and Ten New Records of the Genus Pergalumna (Aacarina: Oribatida: Galumnidae) from India

Woodring (1962) referred the family as the most advanced pterogasterine group of mites.

The genus Lagenonema was established by Andrassy (1987) belonging to the subfamily Thornenematina e Siddiqi, 1969, famiily Thornenematidae Siddiqi, 1969 under the order Dorylaimida . He erected the genu s by differentiating it from Thomenema Andrissy, 1959 in having abruptly narrowed, bottle-shaped anterior region, well sclerotized spatulate cephalic framework, ventrally concave spear and smaller amphids. Jairajpuri and Ahmad (1992) did not agree with him and noted that Lagenonema was close to Thomenema. Gantait, Bhattacharya and Chatterjee (2010) however agreed with Andrassy's opinion that Lagenonema is a well defined, distinct genus.Keywords
