Summary. A taxonomic treatment is provided lor the Maranlaceae of the Malaysian slate of Sabah in northern Borneo. Thirteen species are recognised, four of which are described as new to science: Phacelophrynium aurantium, Phacelophrynium laxum, Phrynium grandibraclealum and Phrynium stenophyllum. One new combination is made: Stachyphrynium placentarium (Lour.) Clausager & Borchs. Keys to the genera and species are provided together with illustrations of the four new species.

High Performance Plastics ; A compact electromagnetic flow meter has been introduced by Bronkhorst UK. Called the Minature-Mag series, the tools are suitable for measuring liquids with a low conductivity down to 5 [micro]S*[cm.sup.-1]; even as low as 0.1[micro]S*[cm.sup.-1] for some applications. They can also handle flow

Is the industry ready for 450 mm wafers?(editorial)(sematech)(Editorial)
Semiconductor International ; The move to larger wafer sizes is, to some, inevitable. Going back to 1975, the industry moved fairly rapidly from 100 mm to 125 and 150 mm, with each transition taking about three years. The move from 150 to 200 mm took a little longer--five years--and the move to 300 mm took eight years. Today,
Incision under 2 mm yields good visual results in study
Ophthalmology Times ; SANTA MARIA, CA-A cataract incision of 2 mm or less results in a stable anterior chamber, yields excellent visual acuity results, and requires reduced instrumentation.
