picture info	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]

The majority (80%) of the species are found in the American tropics, followed by Asian (11%) and African (9%) tropics. They are commonly called the prayer-plant family and are also known for their unique secondary pollination presentation. Description The plants usually have underground rhizomes or tubers. The ...

	Goeppertia ''Goeppertia'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Marantaceae, native to the New World Tropics. It contains 243 accepted species, many of which were until recently assigned to ''Calathea''. It was first described by Nees von Esenbeck in 1831, who erroneously erected another genus ''Goeppertia'' in 1836, which has now been synonymized with ''Endlicheria''. In 1862 August Grisebach described another genus ''Goeppertia''; this has now been synonymized with '' Bisgoeppertia''. The genus name of ''Goeppertia'' is in honour of Heinrich Göppert (1800–1884), a German botanist and paleontologist. Species The following species are accepted: '' Goeppertia ackermannii'' (Körn.) Borchs. & S.Suárez '' Goeppertia acuminata'' (Steyerm.) Borchs. & S.Suárez '' Goeppertia aemula'' (Körn.) Borchs. & S.Suárez ''Goeppertia affinis'' (Fenzl ex Regel) Borchs. & S.Suárez '' Goeppertia albertii'' (L.H.Bailey & Raffill) Borchs. & S.Suárez '' Goeppertia albovaginata'' (K.Koch & ...
