# Delonix

Delonix is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae, subfamily Caesalpinioideae. It contains trees that are native to Madagascar and East Africa. By far the best known species is the Royal Poinciana (D. regia).
The name of the genus is derived from the Greek words δηλος (delos), meaning "evident," and ονυξ (onyx), meaning "claw," referring to the petals. The common name, poinciana, comes from a former genus of the same name in which the members of the current genus Delonix were classified along with plants now placed in the genus Caesalpinia.

## Species

12 species are accepted:
| Scientific name | Distribution |
| Delonix baccal (Chiov.) Baker f. | Ethiopia, Kenya, Somalia |
| Delonix boiviniana (Baill.) Capuron | Madagascar |
| Delonix brachycarpa (R.Vig.) Capuron | Madagascar |
| Delonix decaryi (R.Vig.) Capuron | Madagascar |
| Delonix edulis (H.Perrier) Babineau & Bruneau | Madagascar |
| Delonix elata (L.) Gamble | East Africa, southern Arabia east to western India |
| Delonix floribunda (Baill.) Capuron | Madagascar |
| Delonix leucantha (R.Vig.) Du Puy, Phillipson & R.Rabev. | Madagascar |
| Delonix pumila Du Puy, Phillipson & R.Rabev. | Madagascar |
| Delonix regia (Bojer ex Hook.) Raf. | Madagascar |
| Delonix tomentosa (R.Vig.) Capuron | Madagascar |
| Delonix velutina (R.Vig.) Capuron | Madagascar |

## Use

These plants (collectively known as fengoky or fengoka) release brown resin lumps that can be dissolved to make glue, or sucked as edible sweets among the Malagasy. Their seeds too are roasted and eaten as a snack in the south.
# Delta24(241)-sterol reductase

In enzymology, a Delta24(241)-sterol reductase (EC 1.3.1.71) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
    ergosterol + NADP$^+$ $\rightleftharpoons$ ergosta-5,7,22,24(241)-tetraen-3beta-ol + NADPH + H$^+$
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ergosterol and NADP$^+$, whereas its 3 products are ergosta-5,7,22,24(241)-tetraen-3beta-ol, NADPH, and H$^+$.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-CH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is ergosterol:NADP+ Delta24(241)-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include sterol Delta24(28)-methylene reductase, and sterol Delta24(28)-reductase. This enzyme participates in biosynthesis of steroids.
# Delta2 Telescopii

Delta$^2$ Telescopii is a blue-white-hued binary star system in the southern constellation of Telescopium. It is faintly visible to the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of 5.05. The distance to this system, as determined with an annual parallax shift of 2.73 mas, is roughly 1,200 light-years. At that distance, the visual magnitude of the star is diminished by an extinction of 0.36 due to interstellar dust. The pair have an orbital period of 21.7 days and an eccentricity of 0.22. For the merged stellar classification, Houk (1978) gives B3 IV/V, while Levato (1975) lists a more evolved class of B3 III. It appears to be a relatively young system, barely 40 million years old.
# Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work

The Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work was adopted in 1998, at the 86th International Labour Conference and amended at the 110th Session (2022). It is a statement made by the International Labour Organization "that all Members, even if they have not ratified the Conventions in question, have an obligation arising from the very fact of membership in the Organization to respect, to promote and to realize, in good faith and in accordance with the Constitution, the principles concerning the fundamental rights which are the subject of those Conventions".

## Core conventions

# Deirochelys

Deirochelys is a genus of freshwater turtle in the family Emydidae, the pond and marsh turtles. It contains one extant species, the chicken turtle (Deirochelys reticularia), which is native to the southeastern United States. A second extinct member, Deirochelys carri, is known from a fossil found in Alachua County, Florida. The genus was first described by Louis Agassiz in 1857, and its name is derived from the Ancient Greek words for "neck" (deirḗ) and "tortoise" (khélūs), referring to the particularly long necks of these turtles.

## Evolution

Like other emydids (members of the family Emydidae), Deirochelys' karyotype consists of 2N=50 chromosomes. A 1996 study of various turtles' mitochondrial DNA supported the partition of Emydidae into two subfamilies, Emydinae and Deirochelyinae, with Deirochelys placed within the latter. Deirochelys was reported to be the sister genus to the rest of the subfamily, meaning it shares a common ancestor with the ancestor of all the other genera in Deirochelyinae. Alternative analysis by Stephens and Wiens found that under certain analyses Deirochelys could instead be described as a sister taxon to Emydinae or indeed to the family Emydidae itself. The authors attributed this confusion to long-branch attraction and concluded that Deirochelys did indeed sit within Deirochelyinae. Spinks et al. (2009) also found Deirochelys to be a sister to Emydidae under maximum parsimony.
It has been proposed that Deirochelys and the painted turtles Chrysemys are among the most ancient emydids, having diverged from the rest of the emydids more than 24.4 million years ago. The genus Deirochelys itself is thought to have evolved before the end of the Clarendonian, over 10.3 million years ago.

## Species

There are two currently accepted species:
* Deirochelys reticularia (chicken turtle)
* Deirochelys carri
A possible third species, D. floridana, was described by Oliver Perry Hay in 1908 from a fossil specimen. In 1964, C.G. Jackson determined the specimen to instead be D. reticularia, but in 1974 he reassigned it to the genus Chrysemys. Jasinski (2018) reasserted that this turtle did indeed represent a separate species of Deirochelys.
