Cheiloscopy is a forensic investigation technique that deals with the identification based on lip traces. Based upon the research, it was established that the arrangement of lines on the red part of human lips is unique for each human being. The present study is an attempt to determine the pattern of lip prints and evaluate its uniqueness in a sample of Naga population and also their association with print in the four quadrants of the lip. A total of 100 (15-40) years individuals were randomly selected. With the help of brush a layer of lipstick was applied on the lips of the subject. Following the basis of Tsuchihashi’s classification the lip prints collected were studied. It was found that Type I’ pattern was predominant among the studied subjects followed by Type I and Type III pattern while Type V pattern was the least frequent Lip pattern distribution in (all four quadrants) in both males and females of Nagas. It is found that no two or more persons had similar features of lip grooves. The frequency of repetition of the lip print pattern in successive quadrant is found to be high. Lip print pattern can be used as an additional tool for personal identification.

The goal of this research is to collect and identify the specimens of Insecta that are found in and around Kiphire, Nagaland. As per the research the data on 16 specimens were collected belonging to butterflies, moths, beetles, dragonfly etc. All the specimens belong to class Insecta. The research highlights the diversity and variety of the types of insects present in the Kiphire district of Nagaland, and also the possibility of discovering many more. We strongly require intensive studies to document insects. Conservation of biodiversity involving local communities would be the best possible option in Nagaland, as the forest area are largely owned by people. The species Rosalia longicorn (Linnaeus, 1758) and Euthalia aconthea (Cramer,1777) a total of two species reported from the study area were found to be declared Vulnerable by IUCN 2.3. and WPA-II- The subspecies andamensis is legally protected in India under Schedule II of the Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972. According to the European Environment Agency, the IUCN has not yet given this species, which includes Brithys crini (Fabricius, 1775), Myrmeleon formicarius (Linnaeus, 1767) and Drepana curvatula (Borkhausen, 1790) an official conservation threat status. Conservation of biodiversity involving local communities would be the best possible option in Nagaland, as the forest area are largely owned by people.

The present study was conducted on August 2020 to study the diversity of fishes in Dikhu River under Longleng District, Nagaland. The fish species were collected and for identification systematic list and while nomenclature was after FishBase (http//www.fishbase.org). A total of 11 species of fishes, representing 5 orders (Cypriniformes, Siluriformes, Perciformes, Synbranchiformes and Anguilliformes), 9 families (Cyprinidae, Balitoridae, Sisoridae, Siluridae, Heteopneustidae, Bagridae , Mastacembelidae, Anguillidae, Channidae) and 11 genera were collected from the Dikhu River, Longleng District. Among the fish species collected from the river, the order Cypriniformes composed of 37% was the most dominant, followed by Siluriformes composed of 27%, Perciformes composed of 18% and the remaining order Synbranchiformes, Anguilliformes composed of 9% and the number of individual species was highest from the order Cyprinformes (Devio aequipnatus sp.). The short term study does not cover up all the fish species that are found in the river .Therefore, the further study on the diversity of fish can be done.
