10th Edition Of Systema Naturae
The 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae'' is a book written by Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus and published in two volumes in 1758 and 1759, which marks the starting point of zoological nomenclature. In it, Linnaeus introduced binomial nomenclature for animals, something he had already done for plants in his 1753 publication of '' Species Plantarum''. Starting point Before 1758, most biological catalogues had used polynomial names for the taxa included, including earlier editions of ''Systema Naturae''. The first work to consistently apply binomial nomenclature across the animal kingdom was the 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae''. The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature therefore chose 1 January 1758 as the "starting point" for zoological nomenclature, and asserted that the 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae'' was to be treated as if published on that date. Names published before that date are unavailable, even if they would otherwise satisfy the rules. The only ...

Carl Linnaeus
Carl Linnaeus (; 23 May 1707 – 10 January 1778), also known after his ennoblement in 1761 as Carl von Linné Blunt (2004), p. 171. (), was a Swedish botanist, zoologist, taxonomist, and physician who formalised binomial nomenclature, the modern system of naming organisms. He is known as the "father of modern taxonomy". Many of his writings were in Latin; his name is rendered in Latin as and, after his 1761 ennoblement, as . Linnaeus was born in Råshult, the countryside of Småland, in southern Sweden. He received most of his higher education at Uppsala University and began giving lectures in botany there in 1730. He lived abroad between 1735 and 1738, where he studied and also published the first edition of his ' in the Netherlands. He then returned to Sweden where he became professor of medicine and botany at Uppsala. In the 1740s, he was sent on several journeys through Sweden to find and classify plants and animals. In the 1750s and 1760s, he continued to collect an ...

Acilius Sulcatus
''Acilius sulcatus'' is a species of water beetle in the family Dytiscidae. It is fairly large (14.4 – 18.2 mm), with color variation shown throughout its range. Typically it is yellow and black. Range ''A. sulcatus'' has a worldwide distribution but is found primarily in North Western Europe. Taxonomy ''A. sulcatus'' is known throughout Europe as the lesser diving beetle, a common name shared with many other aquatic beetles in the family Dytiscidae. Habitat Temporary and permanent water bodies. ''A. sulcatas'' shows a generalist response to habitat choice, living in bogs, ponds, streams, etc. As ''A. sulcatus'' is able to fly, it is not restricted to a single body of water. ''A. sulcatus'' is found in water bodies with high and low levels of vegetation, showing no preference between the two. They dominate in water bodies without any fish predators and are used as a primary indicator of predator presence. Environmental pressures ''A. sulcatus'' is found over a large ra ...
