Antennaria Ioscelis
''Antennaria'' is a genus of dioecious perennial herbs in the family Asteraceae, native to temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with a few species (''A. chilensis'', ''A. linearifolia'', ''A. sleumeri'') in temperate southern South America; the highest species diversity is in North America. Common names include catsfoot or cat's-foot, pussytoes and everlasting. Different ''Antennaria'' species reach between 10 cm and 50 cm in height. The leaves are basal and often stem leaves. The name ''Antennaria'' refers to the projecting stamens seen on the male flowers of some species, resembling insect antennae. ''Antennaria'' species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including ''Vanessa virginiensis'' (American painted lady), ''Coleophora pappiferella ''Coleophora pappiferella'' is a moth of the family Coleophoridae found in Europe.

Joseph Gaertner
Joseph Gaertner (12 March 1732 – 14 July 1791) was a German botanist, best known for his work on seeds, ''De Fructibus et Seminibus Plantarum'' (1788-1792). Biography He was born in Calw, and studied in Göttingen under Albrecht von Haller. He was primarily a naturalist, but also worked at physics and zoology. He travelled extensively to visit other naturalists. He was professor of anatomy in Tübingen in 1760, and was appointed professor of botany at St Petersburg in 1768, but returned to Calw in 1770. Gaertner made back cross to convert one species into another. Back cross increases nuclear gene frequency His observations were: 1. Dominance of traits 2. Equal contribution of male and female to the progeny 3. No variation in F1 (first generation of descendants) 4. Large variation in F2 (second generation of descendants) including parental and intermediate types 5. Some of F2 plants had entirely new traits but he was unable to give possible explanation for observ ...

Coleophora Pappiferella
''Coleophora pappiferella'' is a moth of the family Coleophoridae found in Europe. Description The wingspan is 11–14 mm. ''Coleophora pappiferella'' can only be reliably identified by dissection and microscopic examination of the genitalia. The larvae feed on mountain everlasting (''Antennaria dioica''), '' Gnaphalium vulgare'' and possibly cudweeds (''Filago'' species). They feed on the flowers and later the fruits of their host plant and live within a movable case. Distribution It is found in Ireland, Scotland Fennoscandia, northern Russia, Estonia, Lithuania, Poland, Denmark, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Romania and Italy.

Antennaria Dimorpha
''Antennaria dimorpha'' is a North American species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae known by the common names low pussytoes or gray cushion pussytoes. It is native to western Canada (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan) and the western United States as far south as Riverside County in California and Rio Arriba County in New Mexico. It is generally found in dry areas. There are historical records of the species formerly occurring in northwestern Nebraska, but these populations appear now to be gone. ''Antennaria dimorpha'' is a small mat-forming perennial herb growing in a flat patch from a thick, branching caudex. The spoon-shaped leaves are up to about a centimeter long and green but coated with long, gray hairs. The erect inflorescences are only a few centimeters tall. Each holds a single flower head lined with dark brown and green patched phyllaries. It is dioecious, with male plants bearing heads of staminate flowers and female plants bearing heads of larg ...

Antennaria Corymbosa
''Antennaria corymbosa'' is a North American species of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae known by the common names flat-top pussytoes or meadow pussytoes. It is native to western Canada (British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan) and the Western United States south as far as Tulare County in California and Rio Arriba County in New Mexico. It grows in moist, cool areas such as mountain meadows and riverbanks. Most of the populations are found in the Rocky Mountains, the Cascades, and the Sierra Nevada. ''Antennaria corymbosa'' is a small perennial herb growing from a basal patch of thin, gray, woolly, spoon-shaped leaves one or two centimeters long. It produces several erect stems no more than 15 centimeters tall, each holding an inflorescence of several flower heads. It is dioecious, with male and female plants producing different types of flower heads, which are generally similar in appearance. Each head has a surface of dark-dotted white phyllaries In botanical term ...
