A REVIEW OF THE ASSASSIN-FLY GENUS LAPHYCTIS LOEW, 1858 WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF TWO NEW SPECIES (DIPTERA, ASILIDAE, LAPHRIINAE)

A review of the assassin-fly genus Laphyctis Loew, 1858 with descriptions of two new species (Diptera, Asilidae, Laphriinae)

The asilid genus Laphyctis Loew, 1858 is revised.The genus is restricted to the Afrotropical Region where it Cooler Glasses has been confused with the more widely distributed Laphystia Loew, 1847, which currently has no Afrotropical representatives.Three previously described species are recognised: Laphyctis gigantella (Loew, 1852), type of the gen

Dual solution of MHD mixed convection flow and heat transfer over a shrinking sheet subject to thermal radiation

In this paper, the steady-state two-dimensional incompressible, magnetohydrodynamics, stagnation point flow and heat transfer of viscous fluid having mixed convection over the linearly shrinking porous sheet is studied.The governing non-linear partial differential equations (PDEs) are transformed into ordinary differential equations (ODEs) Blowers
