Results show that the Stegelytrinae mainly occur in the Oriental Region and in the Mediterranean area of the Palaearctic Region, and this extends to the east side of both Wallaee＇s and Weber＇s lines. Eleven areas of endemism of this subfamily are recognized. The proportions of endemic taxa in different areas of endemism are generally very high in comparison with other leaflaopper groups, but distinct differences could be found among the different areas of endemism of Stegelytrinae. This subfamily is most intensively diversified in the Indochina Peninsula （INCN）. This is the stegelytrine distribution center, having the highest biodiversity at both genetic and species levels. The dendrogram of endemic areas of Stegelytrinae constructed using cluster analysis of the zoological distribution of Stegelytrinae at generic level shows the endemic areas of Stegelytrinae can be divided into 4 large groups. Relationships among different endemic areas of Stegelytrinae correspond largely to the geologic history of related areas, which indicates that the evolution and vicariance of this subfamily have been closely related to the history of continental drift and climate changes. It is deduced that the presumed monophyletic Stegelytrinae originated in the Oriental Region after North America had separated from Eurasia; this is the case in the monophyletic genera group which is supported by the lateral frontal sutures extending dorsally well beyond the corresponding ocellus. In addition, two expanding traces of the Stegelytrinae are presumed, which remain plausible explanations for the dispersal of Stegelytrinae： （1） New Guinea （and probably （＋ Australia）） - Kalimantan - Sumatra - Malay Peninsula - Indochina Peninsula - Central and Southern China - （Southwestern China ＋ Nepal ＋ Northeastern India） - （Northwestern India ＋ Eastern Afghanistan）; and （2） Indochina Peninsula- Central and Southern China- （Western Asia ＋ Mediterranean Sea coastal area）.展开更多

The general features and elemental composition of honey depend on its botanical origin. In this study, five color parameters （L＊： lightness, a＊： red color, b＊： yellow color, C＊ab and hab） and five elements （Na, K, Mg, Ca and Zn） were determined and related with 91 Thai honey samples. The origins of four botanic types of （1） longan flower （Dimocarpus sp.）, （2） lynchee flower （Litchi sp.）, （3） sunflower （Helianthus sp.） and （4） wild flower （Eupatorium sp.） using principle component analysis （PCA）. The results showed that five color parameters and five metal contents related with the Thai botanic origins of the honeys using principle component analysis （PCA）. Six major indicators of PC i （variance is 44.33%） from three color parameters are L＊（-0.926）, a＊（0.927） and hue or hab （0.824） and from three metal contents are K（0.833）, Ca（0.816） and Mg（0.595）. Two minor indicators of PC2 （variance is 21.58%） from color parameters are b＊（-0.934） and Chroma or C＊ab （-0.834）. Two indicators of PC3 （%variance is 12.47%） from contents of Na （-0.722） and Zn （0.704）. Thai Lynchee （C） flower honeys classified using both six parameters in PC 1 and two color parameters in PC2. Thai longan flower （G） honeys classified using the contents of Zn and Na in PC3 parameters. Thai sunflower （S） honeys classified using two color parameters in PC2. Thai wild flower （W） honeys classified using the metal contents of K in PC 1 parameter, Zn and Na in PC3 parameters.展开更多

The origin of samples Pods and seeds of carob could be distinguished from their IR spectra and this measurement was used for discriminate analysis. A multivariate analysis procedure based on the combined use of Hierarchical Cluster Aanalysis （HCA） and Partial Least Squares-Discriminant Analysis （PLS-DA） was tested and provided good classification results. Three distinctive clusters were recognised, related to the three Moroccan regions. Afterwards, PLS-DA was used for the discrimination and classification of the origin of the various Pods and seeds of carob samples. The results demonstrated that the combined use of FTIR and chemometric analysis （cluster analysis and discrimination by PLS- DA） can be used to rapidly and simply determine the origin of carob pulpe samples.展开更多
