¿ can you help me to verify the name of this freshwater aquatic plant ?

they are from a mangrove ecosystem in the Gulf of Oman.

Due to the current civilization progress in recent decades, acceleration of the development of industry, automotive, urban agglomerations, intensification of agricultural production, etc. and related greenhouse gas emissions, global warming, ozone layer depletion in the atecologicalecologicalmosphere, increase of environmental pollution, growing problem of smog in urban agglomerations, the increase in pollution of the seas and oceans to which unsorted waste is thrown away is cut out as part of the predatory economy of tropical forests in the Amazon and other largest natural forest ecosystems.

In addition, the secondary effect of global warming of the Earth's climate is the increasing, more frequent weather anomalies, including drought, leading to steppe and desertification of areas that were previously natural forest ecosystems or areas exploited by agriculture.

As a result of the above-mentioned processes, every year many species of flora and fauna disappear forever.

As a result, natural biodiversity diminishes, which for millions of years evolved evolutionally on Earth.

In this way the natural resources of the planet Earth are irretrievably in decline.

In view of the above, the issue of environmental protection and biodiversity is one of the most important challenges of humanity in the 21st century.

Classical economics must change towards a green economy based on the strategy of sustainable pro-ecological development.

Therefore, I am asking you for the following query:

How can environmental protection and biodiversity be improved by using current ecological technologies?

Please, answer, comments.

I invite you to the discussion.

Best wishes

Black-footed ferret (Mustela nigripes), a North American species presumed extinct in 1979 until it was rediscovered in 1981. Same thing happened to the Bermuda petrel, peccary, venomous Cuban Solenodon etc.

And the list is much bigger.

The main argument is that if there is no concrete reason, why the organisations are putting the term 'extinct' for a species?

Is it not controversial and funny?

Is it not time to rethink about this problem?

Please jot down your opinions here with any updates in this area.

Thanks in advance.

In recent days there are many discussions on RG platform on type specimen deposition. Shouldn't IAPT take this into consideration and make some stringent rules? In my opinion is it not possible to designate one prime herbarium per country to be the place for deposition of type specimen (at least the holotype) and the other herbariums can bear the other type materials except holotype.

Ex. In case of India CAL can be the place to harbor all the holotypes of plant in the country. Will it not be easy to preserve them for a longer period of time?

A new species was described one year ago. Unfortunately the author's have not deposited the holo- and isotypes to the herbaria as stated in the protologue. Whether this name is standing valid? If yes, then whether the photographic plate marked as Figure 1 in the protologue can be chosen as lectotype?

Suggest me a journal that which have been accepted a paper easily i want to publish my paper of plants taxonomy and pollen morphology.

Decades ago we were hearing of the term "combination hunters" who were fanatically searching for new combinations.

With the advent of digital imaging, it is now easy to locate and pinpoint a type specimen and some researchers are now availing this opportunity and designating lectotypes of plant names at random, without any in-depth knowledge on the particular plant group/s. While doing so, they are very cleverly choosing endemic species at random! Whether such researchers could be named as "Lectotype hunters" as these designations, however beneficial for the authors, are unfortunately not of much help in resolving taxonomic problems and better understanding of the particular group/s.

It is fortunate that some experts have realized the truth and as a result a number of international journals are now refusing 'general lectotypification' papers, as a policy matter, unless they have any relevance to nomenclature or they are designated as a consequence of a monograph. Even the journal Taxon is now being flooded with papers dealing with lectotypification of Linnaean names (personal communication) and they are outright rejecting such papers on the ground of lack of wider audience.

Endemic species are confined to specific location. I want to perform SDM of species with <10 distribution points.

Hi frds,

any comparative research about the differences and breadth of the ecology movements in the mid-70s-early 80s vs now available?

Where is the difference in socio-cultural typology clusters, age, gender, and socialization background?
