The new species is clearly distinguished from its congener Weygoldtia davidovi (Fage, 1946) by having more articles in the tibia and tarsus of leg I. A fragment of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene is also provided for the new species. The K2P genetic distance of the COI between the new species and W. davidovi is 20%, and phylogenetic analysis also supported the new species.

Open-cast mining in tropical forests causes negative impacts on biodiversity and carbon storage. Postmining reclamation is therefore imposed to recover the vegetation despite the lack of understanding which indicators can be used to monitor the progress ofsuccession. This study proposes an integrated framework to assess the trajectory of vegetation succession in coal mining site in East Kalimantan, Borneo.

Soil represents one of the most diverse habitats for more than a thousand million bacterial species present on the earth. The maintenance of soil quality, fertility and structure is essential for the protection of the biodiversity and integrity of terrestrial ecosystems. Introduction of anthropogenic chemicals into soil may have lasting effects on soil microbial activities and thus soil health. Chlorpyrifos is a broad spectrum organo phosphorus insecticide, displaying insecticidal activity against a wide range of insects and other arthropod pests.

International efforts to mitigate human-caused changes in the Earth‟s climate are considering a system of incentives that would encourage specific changes in land use that can help to reduce the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide. The two primary landbased activities that would help to minimize atmospheric carbon dioxide are carbon storage in the terrestrial biosphere and the efficient substitution of biomass fuels and biobased products for fossil fuels and energy-intensive products.

Conservation agriculture (CA) has potential to changes soil physical, chemical and biological soil quality parameters compared to conventional tillage (CT) systems. The improved bio-physico-chemical soil quality in turn, affect the ecosystem services and sustainability of crop production system through counterbalancing the climate variability with the help of increasing sink for carbon sequestration within the soil. CA can also affect the functional diversity of soil microbes that essential for improved soil quality, crop production and many ecosystem services.
