REVISION OF THREE CAMAENID AND ONE BRADYBAENID SPECIES (GASTROPODA, STYLOMMATOPHORA) FROM CHINA BASED ON MORPHOLOGICAL AND MOLECULAR DATA, WITH DESCRIPTION OF A NEW BRADYBAENID SUBSPECIES FROM INNER MONGOLIA, CHINA

Revision of three camaenid and one bradybaenid species (Gastropoda, Stylommatophora) from China based on morphological and molecular data, with description of a new bradybaenid subspecies from Inner Mongolia, China

We have revised the taxonomy of three camaenid and one bradybaenid species from China and described one new subspecies of the genus Bradybaena (Family Bradybaenidae) from Inner Mongolia, China.The genitalia of three Satsuma (Family Camaenidae) species S.mellea stenozona (Moellendorff, 1884), S.meridionalis (Moellendorff, 1884), comb.n.and S.uncopil

Strongly Interacting Dark Matter from Sp(4) Gauge Theory

The stable hadronic bound states in a hidden new non-Abelian gauge sector provide interesting candidates for strongly-interacting Dark Matter (DM).A particular example are theories in which DM is made up of dark pions sherri hill dress 53129 which set the DM relic abundance through self-annihilation.One of the simplest realizations is Sp(4)c gauge
