New records and modeling potential distribution of Plestiodon tamdaoensis (Bourret, 1937) and Scincella devorator (Darevsky, Orlov & Ho, 2004) in Vietnam (Scincidae) by Anh Van Pham, Anh Tuan Nguyen, Anh Minh Hoang Nguyen, Linh Thuy Thi Dao, Chi Ha Thi Tran, Minh Duc Le, Truong Quang Nguyen

“…The Vietnam Skink (Plestiodon tamdaoensis) was described from Tam Dao National Park, Vietnam, in 1937, and the species is currently known only from northern Vietnam and Hong Kong of China, whereas the Devouring Forest Skink (Scincella devorator) was described from Yen Tu Nature Reserve, Vietnam, in 2004, and the species is endemic to northern Vietnam. As a result of our field surveys in 2023 and 2024 in Ba Vi National Park, Vietnam, we reported new distribution records, morphological data, and natural history of Plestiodon tamdaoensis and Scincella devorator. …”

Contribution of Imaging in Diagnosis of Primitive Cyst Hydatid in Unusual Localization: Pleura—A Report of Two Cases by Fatima Zahra Mrabet, Jihane Achrane, Yassir Sabri, Fatima Ezzahra El Hassani, Sanaa Hammi, Jamal Eddine Bourkadi

“…Humans can become infested by accidentally ingesting the eggs that are passed in the feces from definitive hosts (usually a canid, such as a wolf, fox, or dog). Even in endemic countries, the primitive pleural hydatid cyst is exceptional, and it is very difficult to distinguish from other pleural and parietal cystic masses especially that in majority of cases the immunologic tests are negative. …”

Global dynamics of a vector-host epidemic model with age of infection by Yan-Xia Dang, Zhi-Peng Qiu, Xue-Zhi Li, Maia Martcheva

“…By using the method of Lyapunov function, the global dynamics of the PDE model is further established, and the results show that the basic reproduction number $\mathcal R_0$ determines the transmission dynamics of vector-borne diseases: the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if $\mathcal R_0≤ 1$ , and the endemic equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable if $\mathcal{R}_0 \gt 1$ . …”
