Exposition Feng Li
À Paris du 7 octobre au 19 octobre, Galerie Oberkampf – 103, rue Saint Maur, 75011 Paris Pour la première fois en dehors de Chine, Thomas Sauvin et Léo Boisgisson présentent Feng Li et sa sérieWhite Night. Originaire de Chengdu dans la province du Sichuan, Feng Li exerce la photographie à la fois en tant que fonctionnaire pour le gouvernement local et comme indépendant. De fait, il gravite constamment entre l’imagerie officielle et des photos personnelles en décalage complet avec la propaga..

First, the shape of the lateral sclerites of male genitalia and the shape of the female subgenital plate are different between the two species. Second, the number of spines on the hind tibiae of this new species is higher than that in T. (G.) lalinus Feng, Huang & Luo, 2019. Third, the coloration of the body is different between these two species. Etymology. The name of the new species refers to the plumose stripes on the hind femora.Published as part of Li, Bing, Feng, Xueli & Luo, Changqing, 2021, Four new species of the subgenus Tachycines (Gymnaeta) (Rhaphidophoridae Aemodogryllinae: Aemodogryllini) from caves in northern Guizhou, China, pp. 150-160 in Zootaxa 4991 (1) on pages 153-155, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4991.1.7, http://zenodo.org/record/502769

Second, the lateral sclerites of male genitalia of T. (G.) ater sp. nov., are more developed than those in T. (G.) femoratus (Zhang & Liu, 2009). Third, the number of spines on the hind tibiae of this new species is lower than that in T. (G.) femoratus (Zhang & Liu, 2009). Etymology.

Li-Doped Ti Surface for the Improvement of Osteointegration
Aseptic loosening
is the main factor that leads to the failure
of orthopedic implants. Enhancing the early osteointegration of a
bone implant can lower the risk of aseptic loosening. Here, a Li-doped
surface was constructed on a Ti surface via plasma electrolytic oxidation
(PEO) to improve osteointegration. The prepared Li-doped PEO coating
showed a porous morphology and the sustained release of Li ions. In vitro results of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell
(rBMSC) culture studies suggested that the Li-doped Ti surface significantly
favored cell adhesion. Moreover, it was found that the Li-doped surface
enhanced alkaline phosphatase activity and extracellular matrix mineralization
of rBMSCs. In addition, the surface improved the expression of osteogenesis-related
genes. Furthermore, a bone implantation model indicated that the Li-doped
Ti surface showed improved osteointegration. The incorporation of
Li into a Ti surface is a promising method for orthopedic applications

Taeniothrips grisbrunneus Feng, Chou & Li, comb.n.
Taeniothrips grisbrunneus (Feng, Chou & Li) comb.n. Megalurothrips grisbrunneus Feng, Chou & Li, 1995: 15. Described from Shaanxi, China on three females and three males, the original description and figures suggest that this species is not a member of the genus Megalurothrips because of the following character states: tergite VIII with a long and complete posteromarginal comb; male abdominal sternites III–VII each with a large pore plate; fore wing first vein setal row widely interrupted. These characters indicate that grisbrunneus is a species of Taeniothrips. However, the original illustration of the head indicates a curious proliferation of small setae both in front of the ocellar triangle and also near the posterior margin of the vertex. Unfortunately the type specimens are not available for study, and the significance of this apparently unique chaetotaxy cannot be verified. Despite this illustration, grisbrunneus is probably closely related to picipes, a widespread Holarctic species that has been recorded in China from both Shaanxi and Henan (Mirab-balou et al. 2014).Published as part of Mirab-Balou, Majid, Mound, Laurence A. & Tong, Xiao-Li, 2015, New combinations and a new generic synonym in the genus Taeniothrips (Thysanoptera: Thripidae), pp. 371-378 in Zootaxa 3964 (3) on page 373, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.3964.3.6, http://zenodo.org/record/24055
Assessment of Self-Archiving in Institutional Repositories: Depositorship and Full-Text Availability
This research evaluates the success of open access self-archiving in several well-known institutional repositories. Two assessment factors have been applied to examine the current practice of self-archiving: depositorship and the availability of full text. This research discovers that the rate of author self-archiving is low and that the majority of documents have been deposited by a librarian or administrative staff. Similarly, the rate of full-text availability is relatively low, except for Australian repositories. By identifying different practices of self-archiving, repository managers can create new strategies for the operation of their repositories and the development of archiving policies

Adults are similar to those of N. chinensis in general appearance, but can be separated from N. chinensis by the ventral surface of head with fine microsculpture (Fig. 14), the male sternite VII with stout black setae in postero-median portion (Fig. 10), and the longer dorso-lateral apophyses of aedeagus (Figs. 12, 13). Distribution and habitat data. N. sadanarii was originally described from "Guniujiang, Anhui Province ", now it is newly found from northwest Zhejiang. The specimens were collected by sifting leaf litter at altitudes of 680–1300 m, partly together with N. chinensis and N. rougemonti.Published as part of Hu, Jia-Yao, Tu, Yue-Ye & Li, Li-Zhen, 2016, On the Nazeris fauna of Zhejiang, China (Coleoptera, Staphylinidae, Paederinae), pp. 361-373 in Zootaxa 4169 (2) on pages 364-365, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4169.2.5, http://zenodo.org/record/26666
