In this study, we investigated the phylogeography of the Rattus rattus Complex (=RrC) in Peninsular Thailand. A total of 945 base pairs of cytochrome b gene for 340 specimens were analyzed, including 46 specimens newly collected in this study. Phylogenetic inference using maximum likelihood and Bayesian Inference (BI) based on a partitioned substitution model showed that R. rattus Complex is grouped into six major lineages, with haplotypes from Thailand belonging to RrC Lineage II, RrC Lineage IV, and RrC Lineage VI. The haplotype diversity (h) and nucleotide diversity (π) were 0.958 and 0.03319 for the three lineages. The genetic distances were 0.78, 0.98, and 1.26 within RrC Lineage II, RrC Lineage IV, and RrC Lineage VI, respectively, and 5.93 between RrC Lineage II and RrC Lineage IV, 5.54 between RrC Lineage II and RrC Lineage VI, and 4.91 between RrC Lineage IV and RrC Lineage VI. This study elucidated that Peninsular Thailand and adjacent islands in the Andaman Sea involve such three lineages. The overlapped distribution of multiple lineages in Peninsular Thailand and Andaman Sea islands may result from population exchange and dispersal with the northern Indochina in RrC Lineage II and RrC Lineage IV, and with southern Sunda RrC Lineage VI.

本研究对泰国半岛Rattus Rattus Complex （=RrC）进行了系统地理学研究。共分析340份标本细胞色素b基因945个碱基对，其中新采集标本46份。基于划分替代模型的最大似然和贝叶斯推理（BI）结果表明，泰国褐家鼠复合体可划分为6个主要谱系，单倍型分别属于RrC谱系II、RrC谱系IV和RrC谱系VI， 3个谱系的单倍型多样性(h)和核苷酸多样性（π）分别为0.958和0.03319。RrC世系II、RrC世系IV和RrC世系VI的遗传距离分别为0.78、0.98和1.26，RrC世系II与RrC世系IV之间的遗传距离为5.93，RrC世系II与RrC世系VI之间的遗传距离为5.54，RrC世系IV与RrC世系VI之间的遗传距离为4.91。泰国半岛和安达曼海诸岛多世系的重叠分布可能是与印度支那北部的RrC世系II和RrC世系IV以及巽他南部的RrC世系VI种群交换和分散的结果。

The study explored diversity and activity patterns in the Lapchi Valley, Gaurishankar Conservation Area, Central Himalaya, Nepal, through a camera trap survey conducted from 2018 to 2023. Four pheasant species were recorded: the blood pheasant (Ithaginis cruentus), Himalayan monal (Lophophorus impejanus), kalij pheasant (Lophura leucomelanos), and crimson horned pheasant (Tragopan satyra). A total of 26 camera traps were installed at elevations ranging from 2200–4700 meters above sea level. The blood pheasant was the most frequently recorded species, with 94 events, while the crimson horned pheasant was observed only once. Activity patterns revealed that all species were diurnal, with distinct activity peaks for each. The study also found moderate temporal overlap (Δ = 0.52) between the Himalayan monal and blood pheasant, indicating coexistence with minimal competition. This research provides crucial baseline data on pheasant diversity in the Gaurishankar Conservation Area, emphasizing the region's importance for conservation.

该研究通过2018年至2023年进行的相机陷阱调查，探索了尼泊尔喜马拉雅中部高里尚卡尔保护区拉普奇山谷的多样性和活动模式。记录到血雉（Ithaginis cruentus）、喜马拉雅野鸡（Lophophorus impejanus）、卡利野鸡（Lophura leucomelanos）和红角野鸡（Tragopan satyra） 4种。在海拔2200米至4700米的高度共安装了26个相机陷阱。血雉是记录最频繁的物种，有94次，而深红色角雉只被观察到一次。活动模式显示，所有物种都是昼行性的，每个物种都有不同的活动高峰。该研究还发现喜马拉雅野鸡和血雉之间存在适度的时间重叠（Δ = 0.52），这表明它们在最小竞争的情况下共存。这项研究为Gaurishankar保护区的野鸡多样性提供了重要的基线数据，强调了该地区保护的重要性。

This study defined alpine and subalpine zones in South Korea based on the natural environment, plant distribution patterns, and references to domestic and international literature. Alpine and subalpine plants were classified using five criteria, including their distribution in alpine zones and their global distribution range, focusing on the species listed in the national species list. The alpine zone lies above the tree line and is dominated by tundra vegetation, including shrubs, herbs, and lichens. A gradual reduction in tree height and density with increasing elevation and shrubs, krummholz, dwarf krummholz, and tree islands characterized the subalpine zone. The Korean Peninsula native alpine and subalpine plants were classified into 195 taxa comprising 43 families, 113 genera, 167 species, 3 subspecies, and 25 varieties. Notably, Ericaceae and Asteraceae accounted for the highest proportions, with 20 taxa each. The life forms were divided into 35 woody and 160 herbaceous taxa. In total, 72 taxa of alpine and subalpine plants have been identified in South Korea. Most were isolated from the high-altitude summit areas and ridges of Mt. Halla, Mt. Jiri, and Mt. Seorak. However, alpine plants are likely affected by climatic and environmental changes, potentially leading to a decline in population and species.

本研究根据自然环境、植物分布格局，并参考国内外文献，对韩国的高山和亚高山带进行了界定。根据高寒地区分布和全球分布范围5个标准对高寒和亚高寒植物进行分类，重点对列入国家物种名录的物种进行分类。高山地带位于林木线以上，主要是苔原植被，包括灌木、草本植物和地衣。随着海拔的升高，树木高度和密度逐渐降低，灌木、krummholz、矮krummholz和树岛是亚高山带的特征。将朝鲜半岛原生高山和亚高山植物划分为43科113属167种3亚种25变种195个分类群。其中，Ericaceae和Asteraceae所占比例最高，各有20个类群。生活型分为35个木本类群和160个草本类群。在韩国共鉴定出72个高山和亚高山植物分类群。大部分被隔离在汉拿山、智异山、雪岳山等高海拔地区和山脊上。然而，高山植物可能受到气候和环境变化的影响，可能导致种群和物种的减少。

Nitellopsis obtusa (Desv.) J.Groves, the species of charophytes (Characeae, Charales), has a wide distribution from Europe to Asia, and is listed as a threatened species in certain countries. While 19 species of Chara, Nitella, and Tolypella have been documented in Mongolia, N. obtusa has remained unreported. In this study, we provided the first documented occurrence of N. obtusa in Mongolia, specifically from the Khar-Us and Khar Lakes and the connecting Chono Kharaikh River (western Mongolia). Species identification was corroborated by morphological observations and molecular analysis. The majority of specimens examined were sterile, with only a limited number of thalli-bearing oogonia (female reproductive organs). This study presents a detailed account of the morphology, taxonomy, phylogeny, and geographical distribution of N. obtusa in Mongolia.

钝棘球线虫（Desv.）叶蕨属植物（chareae, Charales），从欧洲到亚洲分布广泛，在某些国家被列为濒危物种。虽然在蒙古已记录有19种查拉、Nitella和Tolypella，但obtusa仍未报道。在这项研究中，我们提供了蒙古首次记录的N. obtusa，特别是在Khar- us和Khar湖以及连接的Chono Kharaikh河（蒙古西部）。形态观察和分子分析证实了物种鉴定。检查的大多数标本都是不育的，只有有限数量的含铊的卵原体（雌性生殖器官）。本文详细介绍了蒙古长尾草的形态、分类、系统发育和地理分布。

The study investigates how elevation gradients in mountainous forests affect biodiversity, particularly focusing on Coleopteran species in Belezma National Park, northeastern Algeria. Sampling was conducted across three woodland patterns with varying elevations (from 1085 m to 1472 m), slopes, and northern exposure, using three methods (sight hunting, barber pots, and yellow pan traps) over a year (from May 2017 to April 2018). Soil and abiotic factors were assessed at each site, noting significant variations with altitude. Ninety-five beetle species were identified, with Carabidae exhibiting the highest representation (35 taxa; 1312 individuals). The altitudinal gradient influenced beetle diversity and abundance, with the Cedar2 site showing the highest diversity. Both Hierarchical clustering analysis and nonmetric multidimensional scaling revealed three distinct cluster groups serving as altitude indicators. Detrended correspondence analysis highlighted the influence of precipitation, altitude, and soil characteristics on beetles’ distribution. In the Venn diagram, seasonal variations were observed, with summer exhibiting the highest diversity and winter the lowest. These findings provide valuable insights into beetle diversity along elevation gradients and across seasons, serving as a reference for future research in similar ecosystems.

该研究调查了山区森林的海拔梯度如何影响生物多样性，特别关注了阿尔及利亚东北部Belezma国家公园的鞘翅目物种。在一年中（2017年5月至2018年4月），采用三种方法（狩猎、理发罐和黄盘陷阱）对三种不同海拔（1085米至1472米）、坡度和北部暴露的林地模式进行了采样。土壤和非生物因子在每个站点进行了评估，注意到海拔的显著变化。共鉴定出95种甲虫，其中以甲虫科（Carabidae）最具代表性（35个分类群，1312只）。海拔梯度对甲虫多样性和丰度有影响，以雪松2样地的多样性最高。层次聚类分析和非度量多维标度分析均揭示了三种不同的聚类组作为海拔指标。非趋势对应分析强调了降水、海拔和土壤特征对甲虫分布的影响。在维恩图上，物种多样性呈季节变化，夏季多样性最高，冬季最低。这些发现为了解甲虫沿海拔梯度和季节的多样性提供了有价值的见解，为未来类似生态系统的研究提供了参考。

An updated checklist of the native vascular flora of Korea, covering both South and North Korea, is presented. The checklist comprises 3,975 taxa (3,307 species and 668 infraspecific taxa such as subspecies, varieties, forms, and hybrids), classified into 951 genera and 183 families. These taxa include 31 lycophytes, 333 ferns and fern allies, 30 gymnosperms, and 3,581 angiosperms. Among them, 3,878 taxa are confirmed to currently occur in Korea, while 97 taxa remain uncertain. Of these, three taxa are considered extinct or possibly extinct.

更新清单的本地维管植物的朝鲜，涵盖韩国和朝鲜，是提出。该清单包括3975个分类群（3307个种和668个次种分类群，如亚种、变种、形态和杂交），分为951个属和183个科。其中石生植物31种，蕨类及蕨类植物333种，裸子植物30种，被子植物3581种。其中，目前在韩国已知的分类群有3878个，不确定的分类群有97个。其中，三个分类群被认为已经灭绝或可能灭绝。
