PER CURIAM.
Gui Sheng Li, a native and citizen of China, petitions for review of an order of
the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA), which affirmed an immigration judge’s
denial of asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against
Torture (CAT). After careful review, we find no basis for reversal. In particular, we
conclude that the BIA’s adverse credibility finding was supported by substantial
evidence on the administrative record as a whole. See Ali v. Holder, 686 F.3d 534,
538-39 (8th Cir. 2012) (where BIA essentially adopts immigration judge’s decision
but adds its own reasoning, this court reviews both decisions together and will affirm
if substantial evidence on record as whole supports agency decision); Fofanah v.
Gonzales, 447 F.3d 1037, 1040 (8th Cir. 2006) (noting that adverse credibility finding
was fatal to asylum, withholding-of-removal, and CAT claims because they were all
“based upon the same discredited testimony”). Accordingly, we deny the petition for
review. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
