Genus Composetia Hartmann-Schröder, 1985
Ceratonereis (Composetia) Hartmann-Schröder 1985: 49.
Composetia Bakken & Wilson 2005: 520–521.
Type species. Ceratonereis (Composetia) costae (Grube, 1840) (designated by Hartmann-Schröder 1985)
Remarks. Composetia was erected as a subgenus of Ceratonereis Kinberg, 1865 by Hartmann-Schröder (1985: 49) with 29 species listed for the subgenus, including Ceratonereis (Composetia) burmensis (Monro, 1937) (Burma). Bakken & Wilson (2005) elevated Composetia to generic rank and assigned only two species to this genus, which are C. irritabilis (Webster, 1879) (Virginia, USA) and C. scotiae (Berkeley & Berkeley, 1956) (Nova Scotia, Canada). The other 27 species of Ceratonereis (Composetia), including type species of this newly ranked genus are excluded due to insufficient information. The status of these 27 Ceratonereis (Composetia) species remains unsolved today. Wu (1967) did report C. (C.) burmensis from Taiwan. Lee & Glasby (2015) synonymised Ceratonereis (Composetia) burmensis with Neanthes glandicincta Southern, 1921. Therefore, the report of Composetia in the present study represents the first record of the genus for Taiwan.

Eunereis Malmgren 1865: 182 –183
Type species. Eunereis longissima (Johnston, 1840)
Diagnosis (emended from Bakken & Wilson 2005, new feature highlighted in boldface). Prostomium with anterior margin entire, one pair of antennae, one pair of biarticulated palps with conical palpostyles, four pairs of tentacular cirri with distinct cirrophores. Two pairs of eyes. One apodous anterior segment, greater than length of chaetiger 1. Maxillary ring of pharynx without paragnaths. Oral ring, conical paragnaths: Area V, present or absent; VI, present or absent, smooth bars present or absent; VIĪVIII, present or absent. Dorsal notopodial ligule present, similar in size or markedly reduced on posterior chaetigers. Prechaetal notopodial lobe present or absent; when present, restricted to a limited number of anterior chaetigers. Acicular process present or absent. Dorsal cirrus basally attached to dorsal notopodial ligule throughout all chaetigers, lacking basal cirrophore. Neuropodial postchaetal lobe absent or present. Notoaciculae absent from chaetigers 1 and 2. Notochaetae: homogomph spinigers present, homogomph falcigers present or absent. Neurochaetae, dorsal fascicle: homogomph spinigers and heterogomph falcigers present. Neurochaetae, ventral fascicle: heterogomph spinigers and heterogomph falcigers with long or short blades present.
Remark. Nine species are known for the genus Eunereis (Read & Fauchald 2018c). Among them, most species were reported from the Pacific site of the North and Central America, with E. paitillae Fauchald, 1977 from the southwestern Atlantic Ocean, E. elittoralis (Eliason, 1962) and E. longissima from the European waters, and E. marri (Monro, 1939) from the southeastern India Ocean (Read & Fauchald 2018c). The present study reports the genus for the first time from Taiwan.
The generic diagnosis is emended slightly to accommodate the presence of short neuropodial heterogomph falcigers in E. eugeniae, E. longipes, E. paitillae, as well as E. shichengensis n. sp. (Hartman 1936: 480, fig. 53e; Fauchald 1977: 25, fig. 5b, c; León-González & Solís-Weiss 2000: 551, fig. 1e, g; Fig. 6D, E).

Reptadeonella granulosa Winston & Vieira, 2013: 126, fig. 17. [Brazil: São Paulo]
Material examined. Holotype: MZUSP 739, São Paulo, Brazil, 23º48' S, 45º06' W, 36 m, coll. November 2002 by BIOTA /FAPESP/Bentos Marinho Project.
Remarks. Reptadeonella granulosa is an interstitial bryozoan species with small white colonies readily distinguished from congeners by small zooid size, a robust frontal shield and lack of avicularia (Winston & Vieira 2013). As pointed by Winston & Vieira (2013), this species resembles Adeona tubulifera sensu Marcus (1939, p. 152, pl. 11, fig. 19A, B) from Paraná State, giving evidence that records of R. tubulifera from Brazil may represent a different species.
Distribution. Atlantic: Brazil (São Paulo); sublittoral.

Medium sized and broadly oval species (TL: 5.2–6.2 mm, TL/MW: 1.9–2.1). Members of the Copelatus irinus species group, i.e. each elytron with six discal striae and one submarginal stria. Male protibia modified, angled near base, distinctly broadened anteriorly, club shaped. Male pro- and mesotarsomeres 1–3 distinctly broadened, with four rows of adhesive setae on their ventral side; claws simple. Median lobe of aedeagus sickle-shaped in lateral view; towards 2/3 or 3/4 of its length with 2–3 distinct ‘teeth’ on ventral side. Parameres broad, ‘D’-shaped, often sinuated or with serration on inner margin; apex short and broad; apical lobe long, club-shaped. Female identical to male in habitus; dorsal sculpture usually slightly more impressed, thus of submatt appearance; elytra sometimes with short longitudinal striolae; protibia simple, not angled basally and only slightly broadened distally; pro- and mesotarsomeres not broadened, without adhesive setae. The members of the complex are distributed in the Oriental Region: India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, and Indonesia (Kalimantan).

description: Free vibration analysis of laminated composites plays a critical role in design optimization, material selection, structural integrity assessment, vibration suppression, and fatigue life prediction. A novel coupled higher-order extended finite element method (HO-XFEM) and artificial neural network (ANN) approach is implemented for predicting the natural frequency of sandwich plates with a composite layout of 0°/θ°/0°/core/0°/θ°/0°, where θ varies from 15 to 90 degrees. A total of 557 data points are generated through HO-XFEM, which is then utilized to construct an optimized ANN model for predicting nondimensionalized natural frequency. The ANN model, designed specifically to predict the first mode of natural frequency, is optimized with a structure of 4-90-90-1 and softmax transfer functions in intermediate layers. It predicts the nondimensional natural frequency with the average, minimum, and maximum mean-squared error values of 0.0984 %, 0.00339 %, and 0.49 %, respectively. The optimized ANN model computes the natural frequency for different sandwich plate configurations a few million times faster compared to HO-XFEM and thus establishes a transformative framework for real-time structural integrity assessment.

Emended diagnosis
These are large-sized hornless rhinocerotoids with two pointed upper incisors (I1 and I2) but only one large tusk-shaped lower incisor (i2) and without canines. The crown of the i1 is reduced. The dorsal profile of the skull is concave. The nasal incision is short and opening above P1–3. The anterior border of the orbit is above the molars and the infraorbital foramen is above P3–4. The processus posttympanicus and paraoccipitalis are fused at their base. The upper premolars are not molarised and the hypocone is always connected or completely fused to the protocone on P3–4. The upper molars are simple, with poorly developed crochet and antecrochet and the crista is always absent. The posterior part of the ectoloph of the upper molars is straight. The M3 is quadrangular in occlusal view. The ectoloph and metaloph are fused into an ectometaloph on M3, and there is no metastyle, but a posterior groove remains. The entoconid is very poorly developed on the lower premolars, or completely absent, and the opening of the posterior valley is wide and U-shaped. The lower d1 is usually absent. The ectolophid groove of the lower molars is developed until the neck. The distal articulation of the pyramidal for the lunate is symmetrical in medial view, the indentation on the medial side of the magnum is absent and the posterior tuberosity of the magnum is short. The collum tali of the astragalus is high.

description: Energy sector is demanding alternate fuel for conventional fuel to solve the problems like environmental pollution, Climate change and the exhaustion of fossil resources. Hence, the search of new fuel is paramount importance. This study aimed to identify a new fuel source from okra plants. Okra oil was extracted from okra seed and Okra biodiesel was prepared by transesterfication process. Okra bio-diesel was added with ZnO and TiO2 particles and its effects on diesel engine performance were examined. Performance study showed that B20 fuel exhibited the lowest BSFC of 0.34 kg/kWh and higher BTE of 33% among the biodiesel blends. Further, a lowest BSFC of 0.31 kg/kWh and BTE of 34% were observed for B20/50 ppm ZnO fuel. Combustion study showed that B20/50 ppm ZnO fuel exhibited the In-cylinder pressure and HRR of 71 bar and 54 kJ/°CA respectively. This is 5.9% and 8% increasing in In-cylinder pressure and HRR respectively, compared to B20 fuel. Emission study reported that the B20/50 ppm ZnO fuel showed the CO, HC and smoke release of 0.22 vol%, 40 ppm and 25 HSU respectively. This is 8.3%, 20% and 10.7% decrease in CO, HC, smoke release respectively, than B20 fuel.

description: Psilorhynchus nudithoracicus species group
Diagnosis. Members of this species group are distinguished from congeners by the following combination of characters: pre- and postepiphysial fontanelle a long rectangular opening, similar in size and separated only by a narrow strut of frontal dorsal to the epiphysial bar; scales over anterodorsal body surface edged with dark brown pigment posteriorly, forming a strong reticulate pattern; scales in lateral line scale row (L1) marked posteriorly with a small spot, often divided by unpigmented lateral line canal, forming a double-dash line along lateral line scale row; scales in two rows directly above (L+1 & 2) and one row below (L-1) lateral line scale row marked posteriorly with a small blotch, forming a series of rows (L rows) of variable length along body side (absent in P. tenura); caudal fin moderately forked, with tips of upper and lower lobes weakly rounded.
Included species. P. melissa, P. nudithoracicus, P. ro b u s t u s and P. t e n u r a.
Remarks. This group is roughly equivalent to the P. gracilis species group proposed by Conway (2011), with the addition of P. t e n u r a. Several of the osteological characters listed as diagnostic for that group by Conway (2011), including the presence of a short mandibular sensory canal along the ventrolateral face of the anguloarticular, a prominent dorsal projection on the third pectoral radial, and a hiatus between the proximal tip of hypural one and the compound centrum define a more exclusive subgrouping of the P. nudithoracicus group (composed of P. melissa, P. nudithoracicus and P. robustus).
