A new species of the Asian leaf litter toad genus Leptobrachella is described from Sichuan Province, China. Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on mitochondrial and nuclear gene sequences clustered the new species as an independent clade nested into L. oshanensis species group.The new species could be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of following characters: body size moderate (25.8-32.6 mm in male, 33.7-34.1 mm in female);distinct black spots present on flanks; toes rudimentary webbed, with narrow lateral fringes, dermal ridges under toes interrupted at articulations; ventral belly cream white with variable brown specking; skin on dorsum relatively smooth with fine tiny granules or short ridges; iris copper above, silver bellow; greyish black patches on posterior thigh absent or small; spines on surface of chest absent in male during breeding season; nasals entirely or partially separated from sphenethmoid in male; dorsal surface of tadpoles semitransparent light brown, spots on tail absent, keratodont row formula I: 3+3(2+2)/2+2: I; calls simple, call series basically consist of repeated long calls, at dominant frequency (4831.9 ± 155.8) Hz and call duration (544.5 ± 146.8) ms. In addition, we made supplementary description on L. oshanensis including holotype, variations, tadpoles, skull and bioacoustics. Besides, this paper reports cases of femoral adipose glands in the genus Leptobrachella as first known sexual dimorphism skin glands for males of Megophryidae.

山东省广饶县地下淡水资源丰富,是本区工农业生产和生活用水的重要水源,长期大量开采地下水引发了地下水降落漏斗、咸水入侵、地面沉降等地质环境问题。通过对广饶县地下水多年监测资料的整理和分析,揭示了本区地下水水位的变化规律,预测了地下水水位的变化趋势。分析表明在现状开采条件下,浅层地下水降落漏斗已基本稳定,无加重趋势。考虑地面沉降和咸水入侵的发展趋势,提出深层地下水的约束埋深不应大于80 m,甄庙地区咸水入侵临界水位为10 m,这为当地地下水的合理开采与环境地质问题的防治提供了依据。
通过对重庆市酉阳县叠石花谷景区地质遗迹景观的实地调查,系统划分景区地质遗迹景观类型,探讨景区地质遗迹景观的特征,对景区地质遗迹景观品质进行定性和定量研究,得到以下认识①地质遗迹景观类型可以划分为2大类、3类和3亚类,以叠层石景观、石漠化景观、峡谷景观、洼地景观、落水洞景观、石芽景观、溶痕溶沟景观为典型代表;②地质遗迹景观各具特色,珍稀典型,保存完整,具有极高的科学研究、科普教育和美学观赏价值;③地质遗迹景观品质价值由科学价值和美学价值构成,是景区地质遗迹、景观科普旅游开发的基础,受地质遗迹景观系统性、典型
