Abbottella
''Abbottella'' is a genus of operculate land snails, terrestrial gastropod mollusks gastropod in the family Pomatiidae. The generic name ''Abbottella'' is in honor of Dr. W. L. Abbott.This means either William Louis Abbott (1860-1936), or William James Lewis Abbott (1853-1933) Distribution The distribution of ''Abbottella'' includes Cuba (one species '' Abbottella decolorata'' in Guantánamo, the easternmost point on Cuba) and Hispaniola (all other species). ''Abbottella'' species are a highly endemic group of land snails living in Hispaniola with a single species in eastern Cuba. Most are known chiefly from Puerto Plata to the Samaná Peninsula in the Cordillera Septentrional that forms the northern coast of the Dominican Republic. A second, lowland group occupies the easternmost portion of the island from the coast west to Santo Domingo. A few puzzling outliers occur at Isla Beata and near Thomazeau, Haiti. Many species are known only from the type locality, or from ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Taxonomy (biology)
In biology, taxonomy () is the scientific study of naming, defining ( circumscribing) and classifying groups of biological organisms based on shared characteristics. Organisms are grouped into taxa (singular: taxon) and these groups are given a taxonomic rank; groups of a given rank can be aggregated to form a more inclusive group of higher rank, thus creating a taxonomic hierarchy. The principal ranks in modern use are domain, kingdom, phylum (''division'' is sometimes used in botany in place of ''phylum''), class, order, family, genus, and species. The Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus is regarded as the founder of the current system of taxonomy, as he developed a ranked system known as Linnaean taxonomy for categorizing organisms and binomial nomenclature for naming organisms. With advances in the theory, data and analytical technology of biological systematics, the Linnaean system has transformed into a system of modern biological classification intended to reflect the ...
