Doto Coronata
''Doto coronata'' is a species of small sea slug or nudibranch, a shell-less marine (ocean), marine gastropod mollusc in the family (biology), family Dotidae.Gofas, S. (2011)''Doto coronata'' (Gmelin, 1791).Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species on 2012-05-17 It is the type species of the genus ''Doto (gastropod), Doto''. Doto coronata sensu lato Before 1976 a number of species were called by the name ''Doto coronata'' and the process of splitting this complex into species was started by Henning Lemche. Species with translucent white bodies and red or black spots on the cerata which were formerly identified as ''Doto coronata'' include: * ''Doto africoronata'' Shipman & Gosliner, 2015 * ''Doto dunnei'' Lemche, 1976 * ''Doto eireana'' Lemche, 1976 * ''Doto hydrallmaniae'' Morrow, Thorpe & Picton, 1992 * ''Doto koenneckeri'' Lemche, 1976 * ''Doto maculata'' (Montagu, 1804) * ''Doto millbayana'' Lemche, 1976 * ''Doto onusta'' Hesse, 1872 * ''Doto sarsiae'' Morrow, Thorpe ...

Wimereux
Wimereux (; vls, Wimeruwe) is a commune in the Pas-de-Calais department in the Hauts-de-France region of France. Geography Wimereux is a coastal town situated some north of Boulogne, at the junction of the D233 and the D940 roads, on the banks of the river Wimereux. The river Slack forms the northern boundary of the commune, the English Channel the western. Farming and tourism are its principal activities. History At Pointe-aux-Oies, dolmen can still be seen at a Stone Age prehistoric site. Vauban built a coastal fort at the mouth of the river Wimereux, the ruins showed at low-tide until the 1940s. Napoleon ordered a port to be built here between 1803 and 1804, taking its name from the river. In 1840, the future Napoleon III, first president (and last monarch) of France, landed at Pointe aux Oies. The territory of Wimereux originally belonged to the commune of Wimille, from which it separated on 28 May 1899. In the same year, the first radio link between France and Engla ...

Campanulariidae
Campanulariidae is a family of animals in the phylum Cnidaria, or stinging-celled animals. Campanulariidae is composed entirely of hydroids, a Greek term meaning "water animals" applied to the plant-like polyp colonies of the class Hydrozoa. All species of the Campanulariidae are aquatic in habitat, primarily inhabiting coastal regions and tidal pools. ''Obelia'' contains probably the most well-known species of this phylum, and include four species. All are around 20–35 cm in height with a series of branches carrying the individual polyps. One species, ''Obelia longissima'', is unique for its ability to produce obelin, a photoprotein which allows for bioluminescence. The genus '' Laomedea'' includes such species as '' Laomedea angulata'' and '' Laomedea flexuosa'', which are similar in appearance to the ''Obelia'', though they are smaller and lack a medusa stage present in ''Obelia''. Taxonomy and systematics The following genera are classified in the family Campanulariid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Obelia
''Obelia'' is a genus of hydrozoans, a class of mainly marine and some freshwater animal species that have both polyp and medusa stages in their life cycle. Hydrozoa belongs to the phylum Cnidaria, which are aquatic (mainly marine) organisms that are relatively simple in structure with a diameter around 1mm. There are currently 120 known species, with more to be discovered. These species are grouped into three broad categories: ''O. bidentada'', ''O. dichotoma'', and ''O. geniculata''. ''O. longissima'' was later accepted as a legitimate species, but taxonomy regarding the entire genus is debated over. ''Obelia'' is also called sea fur. ''Obelia'' has a worldwide distribution except the high-Arctic and Antarctic seas. and a stage of ''Obelia'' species are common in coastal and offshore plankton around the world.Cornelius, P.F.S., 1995b.

Rhinophores
A rhinophore is one of a pair of chemosensory club-shaped, rod-shaped or ear-like structures which are the most prominent part of the external head anatomy in sea slugs, marine gastropod opisthobranch mollusks such as the nudibranchs, sea hares (Aplysiomorpha), and sap-sucking sea slugs (Sacoglossa). Etymology The name relates to the rhinophore's function as an organ of "smell". ''Rhino-'' means nose from Ancient Greek ῥίς ''rhis'' and from its genitive ῥινός ''rhinos''. "Phore" means "to bear" from New Latin ''-phorus'' and from Greek -phoros (φορος) "bearing", a derivative of ''phérein'' (φέρειν). Function Rhinophores are scent or taste receptors, also known as chemosensory organs situated on the dorsal surface of the head. They are primarily used for distance chemoreception and rheoreception (response to water current). The "scents" detected by rhinophores are chemicals dissolved in the sea water. The fine structure and hairs of the rhinophore ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cerata
:''The tortrix moth genus ''Cerata'' is considered a junior synonym of ''Cydia. Cerata, singular ceras, are anatomical structures found externally in nudibranch sea slugs, especially in aeolid nudibranchs, marine opisthobranch gastropod mollusks in the clade Aeolidida. The word ceras comes from the Greek word "κέρας", meaning "horn", a reference to the shape of these structures. Cerata are dorsal and lateral outgrowths on the upper surfaces of the body of these nudibranchs. Function Cerata greatly extend the surface area of nudibranchs and aid in respiration, the process of gas exchange for metabolic use. Cerata are also used, in some cases, for attack and defense. In many aeolid nudibranchs, the digestive system extends into the cerata. These nudibranchs eat stinging celled animals (Cnidarians) such as anemones, hydroids and sea fans or Portuguese men o' war. The stinging cells or nematocysts are passed unharmed through the digestive system to cnidosacs at the tips of t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Sibling Species
In biology, a species complex is a group of closely related organisms that are so similar in appearance and other features that the boundaries between them are often unclear. The taxa in the complex may be able to hybridize readily with each other, further blurring any distinctions. Terms that are sometimes used synonymously but have more precise meanings are cryptic species for two or more species hidden under one species name, sibling species for two (or more) species that are each other's closest relative, and species flock for a group of closely related species that live in the same habitat. As informal taxonomic ranks, species group, species aggregate, macrospecies, and superspecies are also in use. Two or more taxa that were once considered conspecific (of the same species) may later be subdivided into infraspecific taxa (taxa within a species, such as bacterial strains or plant varieties), that is complex but it is not a species complex. A species complex is in most cas ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
