Garden Eel
The garden eels are the subfamily Heterocongrinae in the conger eel family Congridae. The majority of garden eels live in the Indo-Pacific, but species are also found in warmer parts of the Atlantic Ocean (including the Caribbean) and East Pacific. These small eels live in burrows on the sea floor and get their name from their practice of poking their heads from their burrows while most of their bodies remain hidden. Since they tend to live in groups, the many eel heads "growing" from the sea floor resemble the plants in a garden. They vary greatly in colour depending on the exact species involved. The largest species reaches about in length, but most species do not surpass . Garden eel colonies can grow as large as one acre in surface area. Species Based on FishBase, about 10 species of garden eels are in two genera: * ''Gorgasia'' ** Barnes' garden eel B. H. Robison & Lancraft, 1984 ** ''Gorgasia cotroneii'' ( D'Ancona, 1928) ** Galzin's garden eel, ''Gorgasia galzini'' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Wolfgang Klauswitz
Wolfgang is a German male given name traditionally popular in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The name is a combination of the Old High German words ''wolf'', meaning "wolf", and ''gang'', meaning "path", "journey", "travel". Besides the regular "wolf", the first element also occurs in Old High German as the combining form "-olf". The earliest reference of the name being used was in the 8th century. The name was also attested as "Vulfgang" in the Reichenauer Verbrüderungsbuch in the 9th century. The earliest recorded famous bearer of the name was a tenth-century Saint Wolfgang of Regensburg. Due to the lack of conflict with the pagan reference in the name with Catholicism, it is likely a much more ancient name whose meaning had already been lost by the tenth century. Grimm (''Teutonic Mythology'' p. 1093) interpreted the name as that of a hero in front of whom walks the "wolf of victory". A Latin gloss by Arnold of St Emmeram interprets the name as ''Lupambulus''.E. F ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
