Taxonomic and faunistic results on three genera in the tribes Margaroniini Swinhoe & Cotes, 1889 and Agroterini Acloque, 1897—Omiodes Guinée, 1854, Patania Moore, 1888 and Notarcha Meyrick, 1884 are presente...Taxonomic and faunistic results on three genera in the tribes Margaroniini Swinhoe & Cotes, 1889 and Agroterini Acloque, 1897—Omiodes Guinée, 1854, Patania Moore, 1888 and Notarcha Meyrick, 1884 are presented, based on material sampled in the Afrotropical part of the Arabian Peninsula, in the south-western province of Jizan, Saudi Arabia. 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.展开更多

This dependence on interdependent systems makes this sector vulnerable to various information technology risks. Such threats include common cybersecurity risks such as data breaches and malware attacks, unique problems occurring in healthcare settings such as unauthorized access to patient records, disruptions in services provided at medical facilities, and potential harm caused to patients due to the compromise of medical devices. The threat taxonomies, such as the Open Threat Taxonomy, NIST, or ENISA, are foundational frameworks for grasping and categorizing IT threats. However, these taxonomies were not specifically designed to deal with the complexities of the healthcare industry. The problem arises from the gap between these taxonomies’ general nature and the industry-specific threats and vulnerabilities that affect healthcare organizations. As a result, many healthcare institutions fail to holistically address and eliminate the unique risks related to confidentiality, integrity, and availability of patients’ data as well as critical systems used in healthcare. This paper aims to narrow this gap by carefully assessing these taxonomies to determine the frame-work best suited for addressing the threat environment in the healthcare sector.展开更多

In this paper, species and subdivision of Betula were classified not only according to the wax sample of Betula but also the comprehensive taxonomy of population characters, geographical distribution, and the habitat. Theconclusion supported the Fu Pei-yuns?(1995) viewpoint of the taxonomy of Betula in the northeast of China. But B. mandshurica (Regel) Nakai should be considered as one single species, the name of B. platyphyla Suk.var phellodendroidesTung should be the synonym of B. platyphyla var platyphyla, and B. ermanii Cham.var.yingkiliensis liou et Wang should be incorporated into B. ermanii Cham.
