This species is assigned to the griseifrons-group of the subgenus Simulium, and is morphologically most similar to S. (S.) grossifilum Takaoka & Davies, 1995 from West Malaysia and S. (S.) hengshanense Bi & Chen, 2004 from Hunan Province in China. However it is clearly differentiated from them by the shapes of the anterior gonapophyses and cocoon.展开更多

The magic of the novel lies in something under the surface meaning of the novel itself. With symbolism as a main figurative device, there are various symbols in this novel. Symbol, in literature, is a thing that refers or suggests something more than its literal meaning. In this novel, a lot of symbols are employed, some of them are obvious, others are obscure. This paper will focus on the objective symbols, the things and the people that can be seen by our eyes.展开更多
