Abstract C. javanica is an attractive small tree with widely spreading branches and showy, bright-pink blossoms. It is native to South-East Asia and is widely planted throughout the tropics as an ornamental and roadside tree, and has become naturalized in numerous tropical countries. C. javanica is very polymorphic and several subspecies have been distinguished. This is the only Cassia species with valuable timber. The wood is used for general construction, furniture and cabinet making. It is a leguminous species, fairly drought tolerant and coppices vigorously. The tree also has promise for the tannin industry. Due to the species' considerable potential, further research into its silvicultural management is warranted.

Dna Variations

Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (L.) and Aedes (Stegomyia) albopictus (Skuse) are the most important vectors of the dengue and yellow-fever viruses. Both took advantage of trade developments to spread throughout the tropics from their native area: A. aegypti originated from Africa and A. albopictus from South-East Asia. We investigated the relationships between A. aegypti and A. albopictus mosquitoes based on three mitochondrial-DNA genes (cytochrome b, cytochrome oxidase I and NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5). Little genetic variation was observed for A. albopictus, probably owing to the recent spreading of the species via human activities. For A. aegypti, most populations from South America were found to be genetically similar to populations from South-East Asia (Thailand and Vietnam), except for one sample from Boa Vista (northern Amazonia), which was more closely related to samples from Africa (Guinea and Ivory Coast). This suggests that African populations of A. aegypti introduced during the slave trade have persisted in Boa Vista, resisting eradication campaigns.

Storage Pest

A summary is made of the literature dealing with the bionomics of Aphomia gularis (Zell.), a storage pest of almonds, walnuts, groundnuts and prunes, and to a lesser extent of rice and grain. Additional information is also given on its habits and occurrence in Britain.An outline is given of its origins, introduction and establishment in various parts of the world. The evidence leaves little doubt that the species originated in south-east Asia, its occurrence elsewhere being, with few exceptions, confined to the major ports of western Europe and North America. Cases of the spread of the pest from south-east Asia can be traced to the export of infested goods from that area. Unless action is taken to prevent further dispersal and measures applied to wipe out the known centres of infestation, further establishment of this species can be expected in countries at present not affected.It would appear that A. gularis is a subtropical and warm-temperate species, rarely found in the tropics and only able to maintain itself towards the northerly limits of its range, as in northern Britain and Sweden, in heated premises. In the cooler temperate regions, such as Britain, it cannot compete with such species as Ephestia elutella (Hb.) while in the tropics its ecological niche is filled by the very closely related species Corcyra cephalonica (Stnt.).Its apparent absence from regions in the southern hemisphere, where conditions favourable for development exist, may be due to its presence not having yet been recognised.

Abstract Polyalthia suberosa is a shrub or small tree, native to south and south-east Asia. It has been introduced widely in tropical counties as a cultivated ornamental plant (it also has medicinal properties). In the New World it is present in the wild in Florida, Hawaii and Cuba; in the latter country it is classified as invasive, but there appears to be no information about any adverse effects that it may have.

Abstract A. chinensis is a multipurpose, fast-growing, large deciduous tree up to 30 m tall and 100 cm diameter. It has a very wide natural distribution in India, China and South-East Asia and is cultivated in many other tropical countries, particularly in Malesia and Africa. It prefers moist, well-drained sites and is sensitive to drought. It will tolerate only light frosts. This species has been extensively planted in the tea estates in Assam for shade, slope stabilization and for improving soil fertility.

Abstract E. japonica is an evergreen shrub or small tree indigenous to southern China and traditionally cultivated there and in Japan. It is planted throughout the subtropics and tropics as an ornamental and for its sweet-tasting fruit. Propagation is conventional and straight-forward. It is planted for commercial use in the Mediterranean, Australia, South Africa, South America, USA and India (Verheij and Coronel, 1991). In South-East Asia it is primarily planted in home-gardens. Its flowers and leaves have medicinal value and relieve flu symptoms.

Bush Crickets

Bush-crickets (or katydids) of the genus Mecopoda are relatively large insects well-known for their sounds for centuries. Bioacoustic studies in India and China revealed a surprisingly large diversity of sound patterns. We extend these studies into the tropics of South East Asia using integrative taxonomy, combining song analysis, morphology of sound producing organs and male genitalia as well as chromosomes, to get a better understanding of the phylogeny and evolution of this widespread group. Besides the closely related genus Eumecopoda, the genus Mecopoda contains some isolated species and a large group of species which we assign to the Mecopoda elongata group. Some species of this group have broad tegmina and stridulatory files with different tooth spacing patterns and produce continuous, often relatively complicated, trill-like songs. The species of another subgroup with narrower wings have all similar files. Their songs consist of echemes (groups of syllables) which differ in syllable number and syllable repetition rate and also in echeme repetition rate. Our results show that South East Asia harbours a large and certainly not yet fully explored number of Mecopoda species which are most easily and clearly identified by song. Based on the data, five new forms are described: Mecopoda mahindai Heller sp. nov., Mecopoda paucidens Ingrisch, Su & Heller sp. nov., Mecopoda sismondoi Heller sp. nov., Mecopoda niponensis vietnamica Heller & Korsunovskaya subsp. nov., Eumecopoda cyrtoscelis zhantievi Heller subsp. nov. In addition, some taxonomic changes are proposed: Eumecopoda Hebard, 1922 stat. rev., Paramecopoda Gorochov, 2020, syn. nov. of Eumecopoda Hebard, 1922, Mecopoda javana (Johansson, 1763) stat. nov.

Abstract Eranthemum pulchellum is an evergreen shrub with a native range across South and South-East Asia. It has been introduced as an ornamental plant in tropical and subtropical countries. It is widely cultivated in the tropics and will occasionally escape from cultivation. It is naturalized in Queensland, Australia, but there is no clear evidence of naturalization elsewhere. There is no evidence of any impacts it its introduced range and it is not considered to be an invasive species.

To determine the immunization status of pediatric patients under age of 5 years visiting pediatric department of tertiary care hospitals in South East Asia. The aim of this study was to appreciate the awareness and implementation of vaccination in pediatric patients who came into pediatric outpatient Department with presenting complain other than routine vaccination. we can also know the count of patients who do not complete their vaccination after birth. we can differentiate between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients and incidence of severe disease in both groups. Immunization is a protective process which makes a person resistant to the harmful diseases prevailing in the community, typically by vaccine administration either orally or intravenously. It is proven for controlling and eliminating many threatening diseases from the community. WHO report that licensed vaccines are available for the prevention of many infectious diseases. After the implementation of effective immunization the rate of many infectious diseases have declined in many countries of the world. South-East Asia is far behind in the immunization coverage. An estimated total coverage is 56%-88% for a fully immunized child, which is variable between countries. Also the coverage is highest for BCG and lowest for Polio.
