description: Paracatenula Witkowski, Luthfi & M. Rybak gen. nov.
Etymology.
The name of the genus is derived from its resemblance to Catenula. “ Para ” in Greek means alongside, besides, near, resembling, beyond, apart from, and abnormal, referring to the superficial similarity of the new genus to Catenula but does not conform to the type of the genus as typified with C. pelagica Mereschkowsky. Paracatenula means resembling Catenula.
Description.
Frustules strongly dorsiventral attached with valve faces to form short chains, plastid unknown. In girdle view, several bands perforated with one or two rows of small pores. Valves asymmetrical about the apical axis with dorsal margin gently arched and ventral margin straight usually with apices slightly deflected towards the ventral side. Raphe sternum positioned close to the ventral margin, raphe slits externally almost straight with simple proximal and apical ends. Striae on valve face usually absent or observed as shallow transapical grooves filled in with silica. On the dorsal mantle, solitary pore-like areolae present, whereas on the dorsal mantle, short striae usually composed of several small poroids. Valve face internally hyaline without any areolae, and valve mantle having a row of areolae along the valve margin, which is occluded by hymens. Internally, raphe slits are bent toward the dorsal margin and proximally terminate in a simple somewhat raised end, whereas apically, they terminate in oblique helictoglossae. Present sulcus in apical area. The sulcus clearly found in the internal view of the diatom valve after the distal ending (Fig. 3 B).

Discussion
This genus has been collected at high elevations only on Luzon Island (Fig. 13) (elevations of surveys in parentheses): (a) Sorsogon Province, Municipality of Bulusan, Bulusan Volcano Natural Park (900 m a.s.l.); (b) Camarines Sur Province, Naga City, Panicuason Village, Mt. Isarog Natural Park (1550 m a.s.l.); and (c) Nueva Vizcaya Province, Municipality of Quezon, Madianggat Village, Mt. Palali (1436 m a.s.l.).
Historical collections from other high­elevation localities in the Philippines by C.F. Baker, C.S. Banks, W.L. Brown, Jr., J.W. Chapman, H.M. Curran, D. Empeso, R.C. MacGregor, H.M. Torrevillas, and F.X. Williams do not contain any specimens of Aretidris (GENERAL & ALPERT 2012; G.D. Alpert, pers. comm.; SHATTUCK & al. 2014; WHEELER & CHAPMAN 1925). Recent collections from low­elevation localities on Luzon Island and high­elevation localities on other islands by P.A.C. Buenavente, R.M. Clouse, P. Sharma, A.C. Diesmos, A. Reginaldo, and myself do not contain Aretidris ants either. Although only a few other localities have been sampled for the presence of these ants, it appears that Aretidris ants are restricted to high elevations. More localities need to be sampled to establish the range of these ants and the occurrence of other species.

Bhatti (1972) erected a monobasic genus Laplothrips with L. bicolor from India as type species, but currently the genus also includes concaviceps from Indonesia. These two fern-associated species are known only from females. Laplothrips is closely related to Trichromothrips, but the pronotum (Fig. 31) has only one pair of long
posteroangular setae, and the fore wing costal setae are more than 1.5 times as long as the wing width at the middle (Fig. 43). L. bicolor is recorded here for the first time from China.
Specimen examined. China, Yunnan, Wuding County, Lion Mountain, 1 female collected from fern, 8.xii.2017 (Yajin Li).

Gelechia dryosyrta Meyrick, 1931: 58.
Gnorimoschema dryosyrta (Meyrick, 1931): Clarke, 1969: 151, Pl. 75, figs 1–1b.
Material examined. " Type ", " Telphusa dryosyrta Meyr., 1/1, E. Meyrick det., in Meyrick Coll.", "Karponang, Sikkim, 9000', B., 6.28", "♂, genitalia on slide 28.x.1948, J.F.G.C. 8252" (BMNH).
Description. Adult (Fig. 1): Wingspan 16.0 mm. Head brown, frons ligh-brown to grey; labial palpus up curved, brown motled with black, inner surface of segment 2 lighter, segment 3 about 1.5 times narrower and shorter than segment 3, acute; scapus black, other segments brown with grey rings; thorax and tegulae black; forewing dark, brown to black, black scales concentrated mainly along costal and dorsal margins, central area of forewing slightly ligther, mottled with grey and brown; indistinct four black dots in cell; diffuse grey subapical fascia on 3/4; cilia grey black-tipped; hindwing dark grey.
Male genitalia (Fig. 28): Uncus prolonged, weakly narrowed apically, posterior margin rounded; gnathos long, evenly curved, sickle-shaped; tegumen comparatively long with deep anteromedial emargination; valva weakly curved, about of equal width, weakly dilated apically, reaching the top of uncus; sacculus narrow, tapered, weakly curved, about 1/3 as long as valva; tegumen slightly broader than long, posteromedial emargination broadly rounded; vincular processes broadly rounded, shorter than sacculus, separated from sacculus by broad gap; saccus moderately broad, tapered apically; phallus curved at abtuse ungle, caecum weakly inflated, distal portion sclerotised along one margin and terminated in short tooth, apical arm big, down-curved.
Female unknown.
Remarks. The species is similar externally to K. (E.) palaearctica, but the head is lighter, the forewing are broader and darker. As far as one can judge from the lateral view the male genitalia look somewhat similar to those of K. (E.) palaearctica in having narrow tapered sacculus, but the vincular processes are rounded rather than pointed, and the apical arm of the phallus is larger and differs in the shape.
Biology. The holotype has been collected late October at the altitude of about 2700 m.
Distribution. NE India (Sikkim).
Notes. Gelechia dryosyrta was described from a single male collected in North-Eastern India. The adult of holotype, its male genitalia in lateral view and the label were illustrated by Clarke (1969). Additional material from the type locality including female is required to provide clearer diagnosis and clarify the position of K. (E.) dryosirta within Kiwaia.

description: The Domain Name System (DNS), which converts
domain names to their respective IP addresses, has advanced enhancements
aimed at safeguarding DNS data and users’ identity
from attackers. The recent privacy-focused advancements have
enabled the IETF to standardize several protocols. Nevertheless,
these protocols tend to focus on either strengthening user
privacy (like Oblivious DNS and Oblivious DNS-over-HTTPS)
or reducing resolution latency (as demonstrated by DNS-over-
QUIC). Achieving both within a single protocol remains a key
challenge, which we address in this paper. Our proposed protocol
– ‘Oblivious DNS-over-QUIC’ (ODoQ) – leverages the benefits
of the QUIC protocol and incorporates an intermediary proxy
server to protect the client’s identity from exposure to the
recursive resolver.

description: Abstract

Introduction: COVID-19 is an infectious disease which is caused by coronavirus. Several vaccines have been approved for the use to recover against coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have been distributed in different regions globally. This descriptive study was conducted to assess the knowledge and attitude towards COVID-19 vaccine. Methods: A total of 445 women of reproductive age group of urban community were involved in the study. A systematic sampling technique was used. Data collection was done after prior institutional ethical permission and consent from participants. The data was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Study revealed majority 358 (80.5%) had good knowledge, 69 (15.5%) with average knowledge and 18 (4%) had poor knowledge regarding COVID-19 vaccine. Majority 403 (90.6%) had favorable attitude and 42 (9.4%) had unfavorable attitude towards COVID-19 vaccine. Discussion: A vaccine provides the best hope for a permanent solution to control the pandemic. However, to be effective, a vaccine must be accepted and used by a large majority of population and in addition to that, the attitude towards vaccine especially among reproductive age group should be positive.

Holotype.
Slide number SZCZ 27552 at the repository of the University of Szczecin.
Type locality.
Sand and coral boulders of coral reef at Gili Iyang harbour Bawean Island, East Java, Indonesia.
Etymology.
The species name is derived from local Bawean Island people called Boyan.
Distribution.
The diatom species C. boyanensis has been regularly observed in samples from the harbour of Gili Iyang on Bawean Island.
Description.
Light microscopy (Fig. 5 A – G): The valves are semi-lanceolate, dorsiventral. Raphe is clearly observed through the ventral area with proximal raphe endings distant from each other and distal raphe endings distant to apices (Fig. 5 A – F). Valve length 8.2–22.2 µm, n = 29 and width 2.1–4.9 µm, n = 17. Transapical striae can be observed on the dorsal face. Apices obtusely rounded with distinct helictoglossae.
Scanning electron microscopy (Figs 5, 6): Frustules exhibit significant dorsiventral. Several non-perforated girdle bands compose the frustule (Fig. 5 H, M). Valves display strong asymmetry around the apical axis, with a gently arched dorsal margin and straight ventral margin (Fig. 5 K, L). The raphe sternum is positioned near the ventral margin, with nearly straight raphe slits (Fig. 5 L). Raphe occupies a more central location rather than along the ventral margin, with proximal raphe endings distantly spaced (1.5–3.8 µm) (Fig. 5 K, L). External proximal and apical ends are filiform, short, and straight (Fig. 5 I). Transapical striae appear as shallow grooves on the valve face, with a row of striae visible on the dorsal mantle (Fig. 5 H, J, M). The internal valve face is flat. Small areolae on the valve surface are covered by a thin hymen layer. Internally, raphe slits bend very slightly toward the dorsal margin, maintain straight proximal ends, and terminate apically in helictoglossae (Fig. 6 D).

This genus was erected for two Southeast Asian species together with a key to distinguish them, and with T. striatus as type species. The species have a strongly enlarged metathoracic furca (Fig. 34), similar to that of Dendrothripinae and some members of Panchaetothripinae. This structure may be associated with thrips jumping activity rather than indicating any phylogenetic relationship (Masumoto & Okajima 2005). Two Trachynotothrips species are here recorded from China for the first time.

The species name is derived from the Latin word decus which literally means an ornament, decoration, or embellishment. The new species exhibits a distinct central area.
Distribution.
The diatom species C. decusa has a unique distribution, being found exclusively in Bawean and Sulawesi Islands, Indonesia. Interestingly, both of these locations share a similar habitat, characterized by the presence of coral reef areas.
Description.
Light microscopy (Fig. 7 A – Q): The valves are semi-lunate or semi-lanceolate dorsiventrally. Thickening silica in the central area is very clear under LM. A row of linear areolae can be distinguished in the dorsal margin (Fig. 7 F). Valve length 8.2–16.5 µm, n = 18 and width 1.9–2.9 µm, n = 17. Apices broadly rounded with indistinct, dot-like helictoglossae. The frustule is rectangular in girdle view, 1.1 µm depth. Raphe slits observed in ventral area.
Scanning electron microscopy (Fig. 7 R – Y): Frustules semi-circular to semi-lanceolate, dorsiventral; valve face flat, smooth, abruptly transitioning to mantle. Distinct rhomboidal central nodule observed on ventral and dorsal sides (Fig. 7 S, T). Valve face devoid of transapical striae; striae present on dorsal and ventral mantle (Fig. 7 R). Raphe sternum positioned near ventral margin; raphe slits straight medially, curving towards apices. External proximal raphe ends simple, slightly expanded; distal ends simple, close to apices (x – = 0.72 μm, n = 21), deflected dorsally. Central nodules and helictoglossae indistinct. Dorsal mantle striation density 35–40 in 10 μm; ventral mantle 40–50 in 10 μm. Internal raphe filiform, straight (Fig. 7 T, U, Y); mantle areolae occluded, flask-shaped (Fig. 7 X). Girdle open, comprising multiple unperforated plain bands (Fig. 7 R, U).

Material examined. Holotype ♂ "Tukucha, Palpa, 6.v.1968, 2600 m ", " Nepal, T. Kumata", "Jp. 4833", gen. slide Jp. 4833 (SMNK).
Description. Adult (Fig. 17): Wingspan 14.0 mm. Head, thorax and tegulae grey mixed with black, frons lighter, grey; labial palpus up-curved, brown with white medial and apical belts, inner surface of segment 2 light grey, segment 3 about 1.5 times shorter and 1.5 times narrower than segment 2; scapus brown, other antennal segments brown with white rings; forewing grey, costal margin black, black dash under 1/4 of costal margin, two diffuse black spots and black dash near base in mid-width, black spot near base of dorsal margin, diffuse black pattern from 1/3 to about one half length in cell, two black dots in the middle of cell, apical area weakly mottled with black; cilia grey black tipped; hindwing light grey.
Male genitalia (Fig. 44): Uncus twice longer than broad on base, gradually narrowed, posterior margin with small medial incision; gnathos weakly curved, rather stout; tegumen nearly parallel-sided, anteromedial emargination deeply rounded; valva moderately broad, about of equal width, tapers into long thorn, not reaching the middle of uncus; sacculus broad, weakly curved inwards, 1/3 as long as valva; vinculum slightly broader than long, posteromedial emargination broad, vincular processes broadly rounded, covered apically with dense hairs and rare spines; saccus stout, broad; phallus nearly straight, caecum weakly inflated, top rounded, apical arm well developed.
Female unknown.
Distribution. Nepal.
Remarks. As far as one can judge after the slightly worn holotype K. (E.) spinosa seems to be most related externally to K. (E.) kostjuki (for differences see under that species). The male genitalia can easily be recognized by the narrow prolonged uncus and the apically tapered valva.
