Species
In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology, behaviour or ecological niche. In addition, paleontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. However, only about 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a two-part name, a "binomial". The first part of a binomial is the genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name or the specific epithet (in botanical nomenclature, also sometimes i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Philinopsis Speciosa
''Philinopsis speciosa'', the blue-lined philinopsis, is a species of sea slug, a shell-less opisthobranch gastropod mollusc in the family Aglajidae. It is native to the Indo-Pacific region. Description ''Philinopsis speciosa'' is a large mollusc, growing to a length of about . It has a well-developed, broad headshield, with a squared front and tapering rear, terminating in an upright tube; the headshield is used for gliding over and burrowing beneath the surface of the sand. Behind the headshield is a body shield which bears two, rounded lobes at the back. On either side of the body are lateral outgrowths known as parapodia. The colour of this sea slug is very variable; it is usually brown, dark brown or black, with white, cream, yellow or orange spots, and a thin blue line or streaks around the margin. There is sometimes an additional white or yellow line at the margin, and a pair of longitudinal orangish bands may be present near the midline of the headshield. Distribution an ...
