Post-traumatic phenomena secondary to snakebite envenomation: a psychiatric clinical perspective

  Post-traumatic phenomena secondary to snakebite envenomation: a psychiatric clinical perspective Abstract Snakebite envenomation represents a major global public health concern. Beyond physical outcomes suffered by the patients, studies have documented significant psychiatric and psychological sequelae. Consequently, there is an urgent need to document and intervene the psychiatric/psychological sequelae of snakebite envenomation alongside the clinical assessment. This work presents a narrative review of the psychiatric consequences described in snakebites in several settings. In addition, it addresses the screening/detection actions focused on Post-Traumatic Phenomena from a psychiatric perspective that are useful in general and specialized medicine settings in snakebite envenomation.

A survey of the spider genus Lipocrea Thorell, 1878 (Araneae, Araneidae) from Guiyang City, Southwest China: An integrated morphological and molecular approach

Abstract

A survey was undertaken to study the spider genus Lipocrea Thorell, 1878, from Guiyang City, Guizhou Province, southwest China. A total of two species is here addressed based on morphology and five methods of molecular species delimitation, comprising L. guiyang J. Zhang, Yu & Mi, sp. nov. and L. fusiformis (Thorell, 1877), the type species of the genus as well as a new record for mainland China. These two species are distributed in Huaxi District and Kaiyang County of Guiyang, respectively, providing the first formal record of this genus from mainland China.
