India and the Indo-Pacific an emerging regional vision
This report looks at India and the continuing change in political and trade influences in the Indo-Pacific region and the possible effects it will have on existing political powers such as the United States of America and Australia.
The rapid expansion of trade, investment and production linkages in the area spanning the Indian and Pacific Oceans and the shift of economic power from the Trans-Atlantic to Asia has given rise to a push by commentators to have the ‘IndoPacific’ region recognised as a single geo-strategic arc. Yet, the concept remains politically contested and there has been insufficient attention paid to the geopolitical and geoeconomic drivers behind its emergence in particular national contexts. Among the most prominent promoters of the ‘Indo-Pacific’ have been commentators and state actors in the United States, Australia and India.
This policy brief analyses the debate on the Indo-Pacific in India, in particular, and suggests that the adoption of the Indo-Pacific terminology by Indian officials is a reflection of the dominance of domestic economic imperatives in the making of contemporary Indian foreign policy. This is at variance with the driving motivation behind the promotion of the term by officials in the United States and Australia and suggests that the common adoption of the Indo-Pacific concept does not mean a convergence in foreign policy priorities

Gujaratmyia BICKEL & MARTIN & AGNIHOTRI & SINGH 2022, gen. nov.
Genus Gujaratmyia Bickel gen. nov. Etymology. Gujaratmyia is the combination of the name of Indian state of Gujarat where Cambay amber occurs and the suffix - myia, Greek for “fly”. The gender is feminine. Type species. Gujaratmyia rotunda Bickel sp. nov. Diagnosis. [This generic diagnosis is based on a single male specimen and emphasizes characters considered to be of generic importance.] Body length about 1.1 mm; head large with respect to size of thorax, and ovate, higher than wide; face as narrow band separating eyes; postpedicel rounded, subtriangular, arista dorsal; posterior mesonotum apparently flattened; femora II and III each with distinct anterior preapical seta near 4/5; TII with strong ad seta at 1/3; veins R 4+5 diverging from M 1 near base, and becoming slightly bowed and subparallel with M 1 beyond level of dm-m crossvein; R 4+5 joins costa at 7/8, M 1 joins margin slightly behind wing apex; hypopygium forming ovoid cap over apex of abdomen, and with short distal appendages. Remarks. Gujaratmyia is a monotypic genus, and the species G. rotunda has the posterior mesonotum apparently flattened, the dorsal postcranium is strongly concave, femora II and III have anterior preapical setae, and the slightly divergent veins R 4+5 and M 1, all characters reminiscent of the subfamily Enliniinae, discussed above.Published as part of BICKEL, DANIEL J., MARTIN, JOHN, AGNIHOTRI, PRIYA & SINGH, HUKAM, 2022, Dolichopodidae (Diptera) from the Eocene amber deposits of Cambay and Kutch Basins, India, pp. 475-486 in Palaeoentomology 5 (5) on page 482, DOI: 10.11646/palaeoentomology.5.5.9, http://zenodo.org/record/733377
