Omiodes undularis sp.n., Patania orbiscularis sp.n. and Patania rhomboidalis sp.n. are newly described. Of Omiodes undularis sp.n., the adults, male genitalia, and tympanal organs are described and figured. The female genitalia are unknown. The Afrotropical and Oriental species of the genus potentially related to the new species by external characters are reviewed. The differential character states distinguishing the new species from the closest related Omiodes indicata (Fabricius, 1775) are listed. The adults and male genitalia of Patania orbiscularis sp.n. are described and figured. The female genitalia are unknown. The species most closely related in the male genitalia is Patania tchadalis (Leraut, 2005). The differential character states are listed. Of Patania rhomboidalis sp.n., the adults, female genitalia, and tympanal organs are described and figured. The new species is externally closely related to Patania tchadalis (Leraut, 2005), Patania harutai (Inoue, 1955), Patania crepuscularia Matsui & Naka, 2023, Patania accipitralis (Walker, 1866) and Patania fraterna (Moore, 1885) externally and in the female genitalia. The external and internal differential character states are listed. A determination key to the newly described Arabian species of the genus Patania Moore, 1888 and their closest relatives is given. The female genitalia of Notarcha viridalis Seizmair, 2021 attributed to the Notarcha quaternalis (Zeller, 1852) species complex, are described for the first time. The species is reported as new to the fauna of Saudi Arabia. A determination key based on the internal morphology of the species of the Notarcha quaternalis (Zeller, 1852) species complex is given.

文摘The genus Ablepharus represents a morphologically diverse group of lizards,comprising approximately 19 species distributed across Asia.However,due to challenges in sample collection,the taxonomy and phylogeny of this genus remain poorly resolved.In this study,we identified and described a novel species of Ablepharus from western Xizang,China,through morphological analysis and molecular phylogenetics.Phylogenetic reconstruction based on mitochondrial DNA(ND2)sequences showed that the new species formed a strongly supported sister lineage with A.ladacensis and A.himalayanus,while exhibiting significant genetic divergence from all other congeners.In addition to its genetic distinctiveness,the new species can be characterized by a combination of the following morphological characters:(1)eyelids partially fused;(2)tympanum sunken;(3)supranasal scales absent;(4)prefrontals separated from each other;(5)supraoculars 4;(6)supralabials 7,6^(th) largest;(7)infralabials 6 or 7;(8)scale rows across neck and back 6;(9)scales encircling midbody 32;(10)midventral scales from last chinshield to precloaca 72-80;(11)subcaudals 110-125;(12)lamellae beneath 4^(th) finger 13-16,beneath 4^(th) toe 18-21;(13)body brownish-olive,devoid of spots,venter brick-red.This study highlights the underexplored species diversity within Ablepharus in China and provides new insights into the taxonomy and evolutionary relationships of the genus.

文摘Driven by technological innovation and the innovative allocation of production factors,new quality productive forces(NQPFs)are a key breakthrough and core element propelling China’s transition from a major agricultural country to an advanced agricultural nation.At its core,agricultural modernization represents a frontier shift in agricultural development-a dynamic evolution of productive forces across technological forms,farmer demographics,industrial structures,and urban-rural relations.NQPFs drive the high-quality,integrated development of agricultural modernization through agricultural technological innovation,green and low-carbon practices,and the enhancement of all production factors.As NQPFs evolve and agricultural modernization advances,we must address constraints stemming from gaps in technology,models,resources,and talent.Furthermore,we must foster deep integration among industry,research,and education to develop new pathways for industrial upgrading,promote green and efficient agricultural development,and bridge existing technological gaps.These collective efforts are crucial for accelerating the high-quality development of agricultural modernization.
