| Water from the Amudarya River is a vital and strategic resource for semi-arid Uzbekistan because of its heavy reliance on irrigated agriculture. The Uzbek water management regime, however, has proven to be rather reluctant to adapt to changing environmental and socio-political conditions despite recent massive pressures caused by political, environmental, or donor-induced developments in the region. The aim of this paper is to explore reasons for the low adaptability of the Uzbek water sector and assess implications for the resilience of the Uzbek social-ecological system (SES).

This genus is not related to Omphale Haliday, 1833 (as it was stated in the original description), because the clypeus is not delimited. The type species of Kokandia resembles species of Closterocerus Westwood, 1833, in its habitual appearance, but differs by the absence of the subtorular grooves. The main autapomorphy of Kokandia is the wide peculiar adocular flange (not seen in any other known genus of the subfamily Entedoninae). Possible relationships of Kokandia with the genera Closterocerus, Pediobopsis Girault, 1913,... |
