Acanthozoon Semperi
''Acanthozoon'' is a genus of polyclad flatworms belonging to the family Pseudocerotidae. Description The genus ''Acanthozoon'' is physically characterized by a dorsal side with small raised papillae and ruffled edges. Their body is elongate oval. The species of this genus have a complex and very folded pharynx. They also have small pseudo-tentacles that prick up like ears. Because of their papillated upper surface, they are easily confused with species from the genus ''Thysanozoon'', which are also endowed with dorsal papillae. However Acanthozoon possess only a single male copulative organ contrary to Thysanozoon. Biology This genus live in warm tropical marine waters. They are benthic and carnivorous. Species list The following species are recognised in the genus ''Acanthozoon'': *'' Acanthozoon albopapillosum'' Hyman, 1959 *'' Acanthozoon albopunctatum'' Prudhoe, 1977 *'' Acanthozoon alderi'' ( Collingwood, 1876) *''Acanthozoon allmani'' ( Collingwood, 1876) *''Acanthoz ...

She was the first woman to be awarded a doctorate at the ETH Zurich and the first woman to be appointed as professor in Bavaria in 1914. Plehn is commemorated in the names of three polyclads and 12 disease agents of fishes. The breadth of her research on diseases of fishes defined the scientific study in this area. She published 114 scientific papers on the subject. She worked with Bruno Hofer and has been honoured as one of the founders of fish pathology. Life and research Plehn was born 1863 in Lubochen, then part of west Prussia. She had five siblings and her father was a manor lord. Her older brothers studied medicine. At the age of 27 Plehn moved to Zurich to take up university education in zoology, botany and geology.
