Preliminary conservation status assessment.
This species has an Extent of Occurrence (EOO) of 46,083.781 km 2 and an Area of Occupancy (AOO) of 16.000 km 2 and is assessed as Least Concern (LC) following IUCN (2022).
Notes.
Strobilanthes squalens was formerly thought to be an endemic to Southern Vietnam (Baker et al. 1921), but it is now found to occur in the Eastern and Central floristic regions of Thailand.
Sericocalyx thailandicus was described by Bremekamp (1961). After investigation of type specimens from Thailand, we find that this species is conspecific with S. squalens. Therefore, S. thailandicus is placed as a synonym of S. squalens.

description: A section of 512 strains from 106 species of wood decay fungi (WDF) collected in Italy is included within MicUNIPV, the reseach culture collection of University of Pavia (Italy). The number of detained strains has been continuously updated since 2010, when this core collection started. The strains are representative of the remarkable variety in habitat, climate and land use in Italy, including 59 different plant hosts, either living or dead, as well as different degradation stages and modes. Polyporales, Hymenochaetales and Corticiales are the main wood-decay orders included in this core collection. Few examples of rare or strictly localized species in Italy are Ganoderma pfeifferi, G. valesiacum, Hericium flagellum, Perenniporia meridionalis and Punctularia strigosozonata. Besides these ones, Laricifomes officinalis especially rises conservation issues. The wide taxonomic and ecological spectrum provides with a variety of subjects for different studies in both systematics and applied mycology, as well as for exchanges with other mycologists and private partners in research projects.

Distribution, material examined. The holotype (MCZC) was illustrated by Alpert (2007) and specimens listed from several localities. We have seen two further paratype workers (LACMNH, USNMNH).
Worker diagnosis. General and diagnostic features as illustrated and in the key to African and Madagascan species above (note paired anteromedian clypeal denticles, sub-parallel lateral clypeal margins, transverse petiolar node, and unextended postpetiolar sternite). Eyes minute, diameter of each about half the width of the second funicular antennomere; with 8–10 extremely minute, somewhat obscure facets. Mesosoma In dorsal view slightly constricted at promesonotal/propodeal junction, with accompanying short vestigial traces of the metanotal suture on each side. Subpetiolar process: (Fig 2) more-or-less basic in structure—relatively deep, the posterior face a narrow isosceles triangle, subpetiolar angle obtuse in side view, without spinose extension. Subpetiolar extension lamellate, scalene-triangular, with a short posteroventral edge, the apex posteroventral, the base almost as long as the subpetiolar edge. See also the detailed original description (Gregg, 1958).

In einer Zeichnung sind diese Mandibeln nicht vollkommen anschaulich zu machen, da sie, wenn man den Kopf von oben betrachtet, durch ihre schiefe Stellung- den Aussenrand nur schwach ausgebuchtet zeigen; am besten sind sie in der Flaeche gezeichnet zu sehen, nur bleibt dabei die nach einwaerts gekruemmte Spitze unsichtbar.

description: Akanthomyces dipterigenus is a species of entomopathogenic fungus (Hypocreales: Cordycipitaceae) that has undergone several reclassifications in recent decades. While it has been utilized for biological control, information on its distribution and ecology remains limited. Furthermore, this species has only recently been reported in continental European countries. Our research provides the first report of A. dipterigenus in the Iberian Peninsula. Fungal isolation was achieved via a modified baiting technique featuring Rhopalosiphum padi aphids. Results suggest that the isolation methodologies and ecological traits of the fungus may either aid or hinder its detection. Additional research is necessary to assess its distribution throughout the Peninsula and neighbouring European countries, and to examine its potential as a biological control agent.

Leopoldamys milleti

description: Leopoldamys milleti (Robinson and Kloss 1922)
[Leopoldamys] milleti (Robinson and Kloss 1922), Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 9, 9: 94.
Type Locality: S Vietnam, Lâm Dðng Province, Langbian Mtns (= Lam Vien Plateau), Dà Lat, 5000 ft (1524 m).
Vernacular Names: Millet's Leopoldamys.
Distribution: Documented only from the Langbian highlands in the Dà Lat region; limits unresolved.
Discussion: Originally described as "a remarkably distinct race" of Rattus edwardsi (Robinson and Kloss, 1922:94) and retained as such whether edwardsi was associated with Rattus or Leopoldamys (Corbet and Hill, 1992; Ellerman, 1941; Musser, 1981 b; Musser and Carleton, 1993; Osgood, 1932). The few representatives of milleti, however, contrast with L. edwardsi by their very dark dorsal pelage and larger bullae. Robinson and Kloss (1922:94) noted that color and pelage texture of the holotype "suggested relationship with the bowersi [= Berylmys] group of rats," and a recently trapped specimen was initially identified by the collector as a possible new species of Berylmys (examined by Musser). Recognizing milleti as a species highlights its distinctive morphology and zoogeographic distribution. The nature of its relationship to the northern Leopoldamys edwards and Sundaic L. ciliatus requires resolution by revision of the L. edwardsi complex employing morphological and molecular data sets. The murine Rattus osgoodi is also recorded only from the Langbian highlands (see that account), and Maxomys moi occurs there, but its range also extends to nearby S Laos and the Vietnamese highlands north of the Langbian Plateau (to Quàng Tri Province).

Type Locality: Thailand, Saraburi Prov, Kaengkhoi Dist., "outside the entrance to the bat cave, half-way up the face of a wooded limestone cliff, 200 meters altitude.".
Vernacular Names: Neill's Leopoldamys.
Distribution: N and SW Thailand north of the peninsular region (J. T. Marshall, Jr.,1977 a; study of specimens in AMNH, BMNH, and USNM); limits unresolved (may also occur in adjacent Burma and Vietnam).
Conservation: IUCN – Endangered.
Discussion: Documented by few specimens: three samples are from wooded limestone cliffs in Saraburi Province and adjacent Kanchanaburi Province in the southwest (J. T. Marshall, Jr., 1977 a; specimens in AMNH and USNM), one comes from lowland bamboo forest in a different part of Kanchanaburi Province (Wiles, 1981), and a fourth consists of owl pellet fragments collected in Loei Province in the north (BMNH 94.374). Phylogenetic relationship of L. neilli to other extant members of Leopoldamys requires resolution by systematic revision employing morphological and molecular data. See Musser (1981 b:237) for discussion of original publication.

[Leopoldamys] siporanus (Thomas 1895), Ann. Mus. Civ. Stor. Nat. Genova, 34: 11.
Type Locality: Indonesia, Kepulauan Mentawai, Pulau Sipora.
Vernacular Names: Mentawai Archipelago Leopoldamys.
Synonyms: Leopoldamys soccatus (Miller 1903).
Distribution: Endemic to Mentawai Arch.; islands of Siberut, Sipora, North Pagai, and South Pagai.
Conservation: IUCN – Vulnerable.
Discussion: Originally described as a species, subsequently recognized as such by Ellerman (1941), but later treated as a subspecies of either Rattus sabanus (Chasen, 1940) or R. edwardsi (Ellerman, 1961). In its morphology, L. siporanus is distinct from either of those species. Where it fits within the web of phylogenetic relationships among species of Leopoldamys has yet to be determined. Leopoldamys siporanus might be closely allied to one of the extant species, but because evolutionary history of the genus is documented back to late Pliocene in Indochina (Chaimanee, 1998), L. siporanus might represent an early lineage isolated in the Mentawai Arch. and within a phylogenetic pattern of relationships. Systematic revision of Leopoldamys using a suite of morphological character sets along with molecular data would be revealing. Leopoldamys siporanus joins Maxomys pagensis, Chiropodomys karlkoopmani, Rattus lugens, Iomys sipora, Hylopetes sipora, Petinomys lugens, Callosciurus melanogaster, Sundasciurus fraterculus, and Lariscus obscurus as part of the rodent fauna endemic to the Mentawai Arch.

Leporillus Thomas 1906, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 7, 17: 83.
Type Species: Hapalotis apicalis Gould 1853
Species and subspecies: 2 species:
Species Leporillus apicalis (Gould 1853)
Species Leporillus conditor (Sturt 1848)
Discussion: Pseudomys Division. Member of the Australian Old Endemics (Musser, 1981 c:167), which includes the Conilurini where Baverstock (1984) listed Leporillus. Conilurines, however, are currently treated as part of a larger clade, the Hydromyini, which also includes members we place in the Hydromys, Xeromys, Pseudomys, and Uromys Divisions (the "Australasian clade" of Watts and Baverstock, 1994 a, 1995 b, 1996). Mahoney and Richardson (1988) cataloged taxonomic, distributional, and biological references. Species of Leporillus are the ecological and superficially morphological counterparts of North American woodrats (Neotoma). Australian researchers are now surveying stick-rat middens and gathering megafossils and pollen to use in assessing environmental history and human impact in Australian deserts, just as North American woodrat middens have been studied for the same reason (Pearson, 1999; Pearson and Dodson, 1993). Pearson et al. (2001) extracted hair, teeth, and bone from middens of L. apicalis and L. conditor to determine former distribution and community composition of mammal and nonmammal species in arid Australia, some of which are no longer present in the areas where middens are currently found. Earliest record of Leporillus comes from late Pliocene sediments (see review in Aplin, 2004).

Worker diagnosis. General and diagnostic features as illustrated and keyed above (note paired anteromedian clypeal denticles, sub-parallel lateral clypeal margins, petiolar node in dorsal view approximately as wide as long, and unextended postpetiolar sternite). Eyes very small, much as described for M. madagascarica above. Subpetiolar process (Fig 9) more-or-less basic in structure: posterior face approximately equilaterally triangular, subpetiolar angle obtuse, its apex minutely rounded in side view. Subpetiolar extension lamellate, a shallow isosceles triangle, the posterolateral edge slightly concave in side view, the base almost as long as the subpetiolar edge.

description: Leporillus apicalis (Gould 1853)
[Hapalotis] apicalis Gould 1853, Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1853: 126.
Type Locality: Australia, South Australia; see Mahoney and Richardson (1988:159).
Vernacular Names: Lesser Stick-nest Rat.
Distribution: Australia: once found in S Northern Territory, C and S Western Australia, South Australia, and western parts of New South Wales and Victoria, but now presumed to be extinct; extent of former range indicated by specimens caught in late 1800s and early 1900s and distribution of empty stick nests (Mahoney and Richardson, 1988:159; Robinson, 1995 a:558; Robinson et al., 2000; Watts and Aslin, 1981:152; Williams, 1995 b).
Conservation: IUCN – Extinct (but see comments below).
Discussion: The last specimen of L. apicalis was collected near Mt Crombie in 1933, but there are recent reports from Western Australia of stick nests in caves with fresh green vegetation woven into their structure, a tantalizing sign that the species may not be extinct (Robinson, 1995 a). Former distribution, along with detailed ecological information, summarized by Copley (1999).

description: Leporillus conditor (Sturt 1848)
[Mus] conditor Sturt 1848, Narr. Exped. C. Aust., Vol. 1: 120.
Type Locality: Australia, New South Wales, Polia area, about 45 miles (72 km) from Laidley Ponds; see Mahoney and Richardson (1988:160).
Vernacular Names: Greater Stick-nest Rat.
Synonyms: Leporillus jonesi Thomas 1921.
Distribution: Australia; once ranged on mainland from lower Darling River to Nullarbor Plain in New South Wales, probably NW Victoria, South Australia, and SE corner of Western Australia, and presumed to be extinct; living population on Franklin Isl in Nuyt's Arch. of W South Australia (Mahoney and Richardson, 1988:160; Robinson et al., 2000; Watts and Aslin, 1981:147; Williams, 1995 c); rats from a captive breeding program have been released onto Reevesby, Salutation, and St. Peter Isls in S Australia (Robinson, 1995 b). Former distribution and detailed ecological information summarized by Copley (1999).
Conservation: CITES – Appendix I; U.S. ESA – Endangered; IUCN – Endangered.
Discussion: Phylogenetic significance of spermatozoal morphology reported by Breed and Sarafis (1978) and Breed (1997); chromosomal morphology described by Baverstock et al. (1977 c). Electrophoretic data indicated L. conditor is phylogenetically closely allied to Pseudomys (Baverstock et al., 1981), but information from analyses of phallic and dental morphology placed L. conditor in same monophyletic groups as Conilurus and Mesembriomys, to the exclusion of Pseudomys (Lidicker and Brylski, 1987; Misonne, 1969). Ellis (1995 a) reviewed distribution of L. conditor in the Mootwingee National Park of W New South Wales based on historical records and subfossils. Reviewed by Watts and Aslin (1981) and Robinson (1995 b).
