Drosophila Bizonata
''Drosophila bizonata'' is a species of fruit fly in the ''Drosophila bizonata'' species group in the Immigrans-tripunctata radiation of the ''Drosophila'' subgenus. ''Drosophila bizonata'' is found in Japan. ''D. bizonata'' breeds and feeds exclusively on mushrooms, and has a high tolerance for ibotenic acid, a toxic compound found in ''Amanita The genus ''Amanita'' contains about 600 species of agarics, including some of the most toxic known mushrooms found worldwide, as well as some well-regarded edible species. This genus is responsible for approximately 95% of the fatalities result ...'' mushrooms. References External links Diptera.info Insects described in 1938 bizonata {{Drosophilidae-stub ...

Drosophila (subgenus)
''Drosophila'' is a paraphyletic subgenus of the genus ''Drosophila'', a classification of fruit flies. This subgenus was first described by Alfred Sturtevant in 1939.Sturtevant, A. H. (1939)On the subdivision of the genus ''Drosophila'' ''Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America''. 25, 137–141. Members of the subgenus Drosophila can be distinguished from other Drosophilid species by breaks in the pigmentation along the dorsal section of their abdomen. Phylogeny Most species are within three major groups, the ''virilis-repleta'' radiation, the ''immigrans-tripunctata'' radiation and the Hawaiian Drosophila. Additionally, several smaller species groups are recognized consisting of smaller numbers of species, like the ''tumiditarsus'' species group and the ''polychaeta'' species group.

Insect Species Groups
Insects (from Latin ') are pancrustacean hexapod invertebrates of the class Insecta. They are the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Insects have a chitinous exoskeleton, a three-part body (head, thorax and abdomen), three pairs of jointed legs, compound eyes and one pair of antennae. Their blood is not totally contained in vessels; some circulates in an open cavity known as the haemocoel. Insects are the most diverse group of animals; they include more than a million described species and represent more than half of all known living organisms. The total number of extant species is estimated at between six and ten million; In: potentially over 90% of the animal life forms on Earth are insects. Insects may be found in nearly all environments, although only a small number of species reside in the oceans, which are dominated by another arthropod group, crustaceans, which recent research has indicated insects are nested within. Nearly all insects hatch from eggs. Insect ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
