In addition, Xorides xylotrechi sp. n. lacking red body marks on head and mesosoma (X. praecatorius has abundant yellow body colouration only in combination with largely red body and X. konduensis has red head marks, but yellow colouration reduced). The newly described species also resembles Oriental species, X. asperus Wang & Gupta, 1995 and X. centromaculatus, but differs by the propodeal carination (area basalis and area superomedia separated in Xorides xylotrechi sp. n., while X. centromaculatus and X. asperus — confluent), absence of yellow mark on mesoscutum (present in X. asperus and X. centromaculatus) and different colour pattern of legs. Xorides xylotrechi sp. n. also has dark clypeus comparing to yellow in X. praecatorius, X. asperus and X. centromaculatus. In addition, male of Xorides xylotrechi sp. n. differs from X. praecatorius and X. centromaculatus by the long setae on antenna (males of X. konduensis and X. asperus unknown). Description. Female.

The new species is named after the host of the genus Xylotrechus (Chervolat, 1852). Distribution. Currently known only from North of India. Biology. The newly described species was observed as solitary ectoparasitoid emerging individually from each host. No mating of opposite sexes was observed. Females constantly tap the antennae on the bark to locate the host (Fig. 3A). The subdistal antennal flagellomeres possess hammers (antennal hammers) or pegs-like structures that help in detecting the host. Once the host larva was located, the female balanced its ovipositor on the surface of the bark and started drilling (Fig. 3B). The wasp removed and reinserted the ovipositor 3–4 times before finally inserting the ovipositor for around 20–25 minutes, indicating that females first released paralysing venom (envenomisation) (Fig. 3C) and then laid the egg. A single egg was laid on or by the side of the host (Fig. 3D). The egg has a smooth surface with a typical acuminate form (Fig. 3E). First instar larva hatched in about 84–96 hrs and started feeding on host (Fig. 3F). After feeding for 11–14 days the larva started to spin a cocoon near the remains of the host (Fig. 3G) and completed it in 36–48 hrs. The newly spun cocoon was cottony white and changed colour to yellowish white in a couple of days and ultimately turned golden brown (Fig. 3H). Pupation was completed in 22–26 days and adult emerged 40–44 days after the egg was first laid. Adult emergence was observed till the first week of October and cocoons which spun in late October entered in diapause and did not show any adult emergence. In the last week of April to early May, the adults started emerging from previous years’ cocoons. In all cases, only a single egg on the host larva or a single larva feeding on the host was observed. Dissection experiments revealed that adult wasp possesses a pair of ovaries with three ovarioles in each ovary. In five females dissected, a maximum of 6 mature eggs were observed in the ovaries (Fig. 3J). Long tubules of the venom gland were attached to a venom reservoir through a common duct. Venom reservoir appeared nearly transparent and had a napiform shape. Dufour gland was pear-shaped with a long stalk and appeared slightly yellowish. In lateral view, the Dufour gland and venom reservoir seem to droop somewhat onto the base of the ovipositor shaft.Published as part of Maqbool, Iqra, Varga, Oleksandr, Maqbool, Amir, Wachkoo, Aijaz Ahmad, Banu, A.

Distribution. Jammu and Kashmir, Srinagar, India. Biology. Both the fig species (Ficus carica and Ficus palmata) in Jammu and Kashmir are frequently visited by Ficobracon kashmirensis (Figs 28–31). The female wasp bores through the fig wall with its ovipositor and lays a single egg inside the unripe fig which hatches in around 22 hrs. Larvae show phytophagous behavior feeding on immature ovaries and form a cocoon to pupate after 11–13 days (Figs 32–33). Adults emerge from cocoons in about 5–6 days and chew out a tunnel through the fig wall (Fig. 34). Emergence starts in the month of July and continues till November. Different females may oviposit on the same fig and multiple cocoons are formed inside a single fig. Others usually follow the same initial tunnel but occasionally other tunnels are also bored. Sexual dimorphism is obvious with females larger (3.31–4.12 mm) than males (2.70–3.19). Etymology. Species epithet is in reference to the type locality.Published as part of Maqbool, Amir, Akbar, Shahid Ali & Wachkoo, Aijaz Ahmad, 2018, First record of the genus Ficobracon (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) from India, with description of new species, pp. 421-428 in Zootaxa 4379 (3) on pages 422-424, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4379.3.5, http://zenodo.org/record/117447
Next-generation nanomaterials for environmental applications through the advanced green chemistry approach
No full textI nanomateriali di nuova generazione (NM) ad alte prestazioni sono molto desiderati; tuttavia, le procedure di sintesi esistenti sono costose, complicate e insostenibili. Il forte consumo di risorse naturali, l'uso di reagenti sintetici pericolosi e i metodi di sintesi dannosi per l'ambiente sono le principali preoccupazioni che richiedono metodi di progettazione più sicuri. Soprattutto, seguendo gli Obiettivi per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile (SDG) delle Nazioni Unite, vale la pena implementare un approccio di nanosintesi sostenibile (SNS). Un passo avanti, un modo molto efficiente potrebbe essere il concetto "dal rifiuto - al trattare il rifiuto", che è stato seguito attivamente nella presente tesi di laurea. I NM di nuova generazione ad alte prestazioni sono stati ottenuti attraverso la valorizzazione di rifiuti eterogenei e comprendono a)- grafene mutato come NM b)- TiO2-NM anatasio puro c)- TiO2-NM policristallino d)- TiO2-NM anatasio termostabile non drogato con metalli e)- nanocellulosa f)- nanocompositi (NC) combinando nanocellulosa e TiO2-NM o ossido di grafene ridotto (rGO). Il monitoraggio operando di un sensore di metanolo a temperatura ambiente in nanocomposito (TiO2@rGO-NC) ha dimostrato che il meccanismo di rilevamento del nanocomposito si basa sull'effetto combinato dell' assorbimento fisico reversibile del metanolo e del chemi-assorbimento irreversibile, sulla modifica del sensore nel tempo, e sulla deplezione/ripristino di elettroni/O2 a causa di una reazione elettrochimica superficiale che forma CO2 e H2O. Inoltre, i TiO2-NMs di sintesi green (GS) hanno dimostrato una rapida rimozione degli inquinanti organici (Crystal Violet, Methyl Violet) dalle acque reflue attraverso l'adsorbimento superficiale e la fotocatalisi, nonché la degradazione fotocatalitica (NO)x sotto luce UV e visibile, rispettivamente, superiore del 70% rispetto a quella di due TiO2-NMs di grado commerciale. Inoltre, i TiO2-NM non drogati con metalli, aggiunti a vernici a base d'acqua, sono stati in grado di ottenere una rimozione del 99% degli inquinanti adsorbiti in superficie sotto i raggi UV e la luce naturale del sole, insieme a un'eccellente stabilità nella formulazione di una vernice.High performance next-generation nanomaterials (NMs) are much desired; however, the existing synthesis procedures are costly, complicated, and unsustainable. Robust consumption of natural resources, use of hazardous synthetic reagents and environmentally harmful synthesis methods are the main concerns which demand safer-by-design methods. Most importantly, following UN Sustainable Development Goals – SDGs, it is worthwhile to implement sustainable nanosynthesis (SNS) approach. A step forward, a much efficient way could be the concept of from waste – to treat waste which was actively followed in the current dissertation. High performance next-generation NMs were obtained through heterogenous waste valorization and include a)- mutated graphene like NMs b)- pure anatase TiO2-NMs c)- polycrystalline TiO2-NMs d)- non-metal-doped thermostable anatase TiO2-NMs e)- nanocellulose f)- nanocomposites (NC) by combining nanocellulose and TiO2-NMs or reduce graphene oxide (rGO). Operando monitoring of a room temperature nanocomposite (TiO2@rGO-NC) methanol sensor demonstrated that the sensing mechanism of the nanocomposite relies on the combined effect of methanol reversible physisorption and irreversible chemisorption, sensor modification over time, and electron/O2 depletion-restoration due to a surface electrochemical reaction forming CO2 and H2O. Moreover, green synthesized (GS) TiO2-NMs have demonstrated rapid removal of organic pollutants (Crystal Violet, Methyl Violet) from wastewater through surface adsorption and photocatalysis as well as photocatalytic (NO)x degradation under UV and visible-light respectively, 70% higher than that of two commercial grade TiO2-NMs. Additionally, non-metal-doped TiO2-NMs, when added to water-based paint, were able to achieve 99% removal of surface adsorbed pollutants under UV and natural sunlight, paralleled by excellent stability in a paint formulation
