1. The structure of the head in four samples of the genus Allodapa from Madagascar birds is described and shown to represent stages in the functional deformation of the pharyngeal portions.2. All the specimens are considered to belong to Allodapa suctoria (Molin, 1860) s.l. and are described. Their hosts are: Margaroperdix sp. Centropus toulou, Coua caerulea and C. raynandii.3. The species of the family Subuluridae known from Madagascar hosts are discussed and it is shown that they represent a minor parasite fauna which has most probably been secondarily introduced.4. It is reported that Subulura prosimiae Baer, 1935 is indistinguishable from Primasubulura distans (Rudolphi, 1819) and that the record of the former species given by Chabaud and Petter (1958), based only on females, is that of a Subulura species and not a Primasubulura.5. A Subulura species is reported from Coua gigas.

Despite the existence of an article in modern Russian legislation on the legal status of minor parents, many legal issues related to the implementation and protection of the rights, duties, interests of a minor parent and his child remained outside family legal regulation, which exacerbates the already difficult problem of legal protection of early parenthood. Moreover, the provisions of Article 62 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation are very inharmoniously combined with the rules of guardianship of minors. The aim of the work is to analyze the legislation on the legal status of minor parents and guardians, to identify the legal characteristics of the care of a child of minor parents. The author concludes that the features of the care of a child of minor parents, in addition to the age of one or both parents, in the case of the appointment of a guardian include: a combination of parenthood and guardianship; unequal opportunities for the care of a child by a minor parent who is not able to independently provide care, and by the legal representative of the child of the minor parent; special (additional) grounds for terminating guardianship of a child of minor parents; the need for the guardian to live together not only with the child in care, but also with his parent. The norms of paragraph 2 of article 62 of the Family Code of the Russian Federation and paragraph 2 of article 29 of the Federal law «On Guardianship and Custodianship» should be adjusted. It is proposed to introduce special rules for the selection of the guardian of a child of a minor parent, which would properly ensure the right of the minor parent to live together with the child.

The media usually promote a negative image of the German „Jugendamt”. Meanwhile, the Youth Welfare Office (Socialgesetzbuch VIII Kinder- und Jugendhilfe) based on the bill SGB VII, has been established directly to help the families s affected by problems. Basically, this help is limited to supporting parents and caretakers in providing the welfare and education for the children. However, in the most drastic cases, the help system is expected to locate a minor in a foster environment. Federal Statistical Offi ce registers a systematic growth in the number of minors that are in various forms of care outside the family. In 2016, the number included 174 800 persons (in 50% of cases the withdrawal of parental rights was dictated by the parents’ incapability of coping with parental issues). The German institutional model of foster care designed for minors living abroad is characterized by introducing minors to care homes (Standprojekt), encouraging them to participate in yacht cruises (Schiffprojekte) or so-called travel projects (Reiseprojekten). In accordance with the German regulations, the children of foreigners under 18 are considered minors, thus if they travel without adult supervision, they are deemed unaccompanied minors and are consequently put under the care of the Youth Welfare Office.

Fixing the situation of doctrinal backlog in the development of the problem of actual parenting of a minor, the author explores the problem from the perspective of the instrumental approach. At the phenomenological level, the essential signs of actual upbringing are subject to the theoretical analysis These signs include: implicity as a social phenomenon, casuability, heterogeneity of social reasons for emergence, apparent voluntariness, gratuitousness, opacity of the circle of actual educators, preservation of continuous communication with the child’s family, lack of legal connection with the moment of emergence and termination of this type of actual relationship. At the interdisciplinary level, the extra-legal grammar of actual parenting is investigated with the inclusion of other social phenomena, structures and institutions closely related to it, providing reasonable scientific perception of this theoretical construct in jurisprudence. Using the political-legal approach complementing the traditional dogmatic approach to the study of the problem of actual parenting, the author aims to expand doctrinal boundaries of the solution of the problem of actual parenting in its legal perspective, creating prerequisites for future research of the topic in the context of its methodological preparedness. The author’s findings are based on the fact that the legal problem of actual parenting lies in the bosom of the problems of family education rather than between family education and forms of institutional protection of children, as is often seen in the family law doctrine. The normative nature of relations in the field of the family upbringing of a child, ensured through numerous acts of international law on child saving, national constitutional norms, principles of family law, general provisions of individual institutions and structures, does not make it clear that today’s legislative attitude to actual parenting is in no way consistent with the family law dogmatics.

We analyze normative documents of the Russian Federation, regulating the protection of the rights and interests of a minor, allowed to form some problems of his proper legal protection. In particular, we are talking about the presence of shortcomings inherent in the domestic criminal legislation, which, of course, generates further problems of law enforcement. Attention is focused on some, in our opinion, significant shortcomings, indicating the inconsistency of the essence and content of the normative provisions of modern directions of criminal law policy in terms of protection of minors from the most common socially dangerous attacks at the present time. Special attention is paid to the effectiveness of national mechanisms to ensure and protect the rights and interests of children through the implementation of national programs and projects. The plan of the main activities up to 2020, carried out within the framework of the Decade of childhood, presented for analysis, focuses on the neutralization of social and domestic problems. The complex of diverse measures has been developed and approved taking into account modern requirements to the process of full socialization of a teenager in the family, society and the state. However, against the background of the progressing unfavorable trends in the state program, the need to focus on the mechanism of prevention and combating criminal threats, the victims of which are children, is completely ignored. In this connection, it is concluded that it is necessary to improve the legislation acting as the basis of social and criminal policy for the protection of children.

The author of the article investigates the merits and remuneration of employees of the regional and city depatments of the NKGB-MSS in the Ternopil region in the 1945-1948 on the basis of a considerable circle of historical sources and monographs. The author identifies the main type of remuneration for NKGB-MSS employees - gratitude announcement. The author of the article indicates the main type of remuneration for NKGB-MSS employees - the announcement of gratitude, and the main merit was the successful participation in the chekist-military operation. It was considered successful if it resulted in the killing or detention of a person or a group of people involved in a particular case. Often during such operations, various trophies were taken, such as assault rifles, guns, pistols, machine guns, grenades and ammunition. However, internal documentation of the OUN or UPA was of the greatest operational value, since the documents served as the basis for the development of new operational cases. The author notes that NKGB-MSS security officers, their families, and agents received compensation. To substantiate this thesis, the author provides two examples. After the death of a security official, the family of the deceased received a lump sum compensation of 3,000 rubles. A security agent received 2,000 rubles for the reconstruction of the house and manor buildings because during the chekist-military operation, the rebels hid in her house and set it on fire, and not only the house but also the manor buildings. The author allocates arms and money as a reward to separate unit. The author emphasizes the receipt of the prize weapon for two reasons: firstly, as a rare event, and secondly, as irresponsible act of the state security officers, since the TT combat weapon was presented to a minor schoolboy who had joined the military unit. The author of the article emphasizes that most of the cash prize was received only by fighters of fighter battalions, recruited agents and cadets of militant squadron. They earned cash prizes for successfully conducted chekist-military operations.The author of the article also notes the amount of cash prizes was from 250 to 500 rubles. The amount of remuneration often varied depending on the rank and significance of each individual operation.

Juvenile delinquency also known juvenile offending, is the act of participating in unlawful behavior as a minor or individual younger than the statutory age of majority. This paper is based on a research project in which the Juvenile delinquency is analyzed by researchers. A researcher has been collecting the data from internet (Website: ncrb.gov.in). This research aims to explore the educational background of the criminal along with the family background and their economic status which affects the juveniles or which results in the crime among juveniles. The present study leads to the conclusion that the low income of the family, family background (nuclear or joint or homeless), lack of parental supervision on their children is the main cause which is leading to the rise in this trend of delinquency

Abstract Erythrocyte bisphosphoglycerate mutase (BPGM) deficiency is a rare disease associated with a decrease in 2,3-diphosphoglycerate concentration. A complete BPGM deficiency was described in 1978 by Rosa et al (J Clin Invest 62:907, 1978) and was shown to be associated with 30% to 50% of an inactive enzyme detectable by specific antibodies and resulting from an 89 Arg-->Cys substitution. The propositus' three sisters exhibited the same phenotype, while his two children had an intermediate phenotype. Samples from the family were examined using polymerase chain reaction and allele-specific oligonucleotide hybridization and sequencing techniques. Amplification of erythrocyte total RNA from the propositus' sister around the 89 mutation indicated the presence of two forms of messenger RNAs, a major form with the 89 Arg-->Cys mutation and a minor form with a normal sequence. Sequence studies of the propositus' DNA samples indicated heterozygosity at locus 89 and another heterozygosity with the deletion of nucleotide C 205 or C 206. Therefore, the total BPGM deficiency results from a genetic compound with one allele coding for an inactive enzyme (mutation BPGM Creteil I) and the other bearing a frameshift mutation (mutation BPGM Creteil II). Examination of the propositus' two children indicated that they both inherited the BPGM Creteil I mutation.

The article analyses the issue of the rights of minors. Issues of interaction between internal affairs bodies, commissioners for the rights of the child and other actors are under consideration. A number of normative acts and programmes on the rights of minors are being analysed. The normative basis for the protection of the rights of the child in modern Russia is analysed, in particular, the conventions ratified by Russia in this sphere and federal legislation. Selected law enforcement issues in the area of children ‘s rights are also addressed. Recommendations are made to improve the realization of the rights of minors in the activities of internal affairs bodies in cooperation with local self-government bodies. It is noted that in Russia the legal status of a minor is characterized by instability, insufficient social and legal protection, lack of reliable guaranteeing state mechanisms. The plight of minors in modern Russia today is further exacerbated by the fact that domestic legislation has not yet adequately guaranteed them reliable legal protection against adult abuse: in the family, in educational institutions, in society. There are also insufficient legal measures to combat child prostitution, drug addiction and alcoholism. It was to be hoped that addressing the problem in the article would more effectively address those problems. The author hopes that a number of proposals made will be useful in improving the mechanism for the protection of the rights of minors in Russia.

A novel obligately anaerobic, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped, non-motile Gram-reaction-negative bacterium was isolated from infant faeces. The strain, designated NSB1T, was able to grow on rich media at 30–37 °C, in the presence of up to 2 % (w/v) Oxgall and 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Cells of strain NSB1T produced catalase, but not urease and indole. Aesculin was not hydrolysed. The strain was able to utilize d-glucose, lactose, maltose, mannose and raffinose as electron donors. When grown on d-glucose, the main metabolic end products were propionic and acetic acids, with a minor product being succinic acid. The major cellular fatty acids, iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0, were present at a 1 : 1 molar ratio. The major menaquinone was MK-11. The DNA G+C content was found to be 38.5 mol%. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis strain NSB1T is a member of the family Porphyromonadaceae , phylum Bacteroidetes . The closest relatives of the strain were Barnesiella viscericola (88.2 % identity) and Barnesiella intestinihominis (87.4 % identity). On the basis of phenotypic and genotypic properties of strain NSB1T we conclude that this strain represent a novel species in a new genus within the family of Porphyromonadaceae for which the name Coprobacter fastidiosus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the species is NSB1T ( = DSM 26242T, = VKM B-2743T).
