Huffmanela Banningi
''Huffmanela'' is a genus of parasitic nematodes, belonging to the family Trichosomoididae. Morphology As other nematodes, species of ''Huffmanela'' are elongate and vermiform. They are especially thin and small. The male is smaller than the female. The stichosome is composed of a single row of stichocytes (glandular cells). The advances eggs contain larvae and have strongly pigmented, dark, often conspicuously thick walls comprising three layers, and polar plugs. Biology Nematodes of the genus ''Huffmanela'' are all parasites of fishes. They infect various tissues (skin, mucosa, musculature, swimbladder wall, intestine wall, and even within the bones) of elasmobranchs (sharks) and bony fishes. The life cycle of the marine species is not known. Females lay eggs in the host's tissues at a very early stage and eggs continue to develop after being laid. Eggs usually occur as masses in the tissues of the hosts, occurring frequently as conspicuous black spots in the flesh or oth ...

Huffmanela Hamo
''Huffmanela hamo'' is a parasitic nematode.Justine, J.-L. & Iwaki, T. 2014: ''Huffmanela hamo'' sp. n. (Nematoda: Trichosomoididae: Huffmanelinae) from the dagger-tooth pike conger ''Muraenesox cinereus'' off Japan. Folia Parasitologica, 61, 267–271Free PDF It has been observed in the muscles of the dagger-tooth pike conger ''Muraenesox cinereus'', a muraenesocid marine fish off Japan. Its life-cycle is unknown. Description The adults are unknown, only the eggs were described. The parasite was detected by the presence of small black spots, 1–2 mm in diameter, in the flesh (muscles) of fish; these black spots are accumulations of eggs. The eggs are 66–77 μm (mean 72 μm) in length and 33–38 μm (mean 35 μm) in width. The surface of the eggs is smooth and bears neither envelope nor filaments. The nematode was differentiated from other members of the genus ''Huffmanela'' by the dimensions of its eggs and the characteristics of their surface. It is the single ''H ...

Syntype
In biological nomenclature, a syntype is any one of two or more biological types that is listed in a description of a taxon where no holotype was designated. Precise definitions of this and related terms for types have been established as part of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature and the International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants. In zoology In zoological nomenclature, a syntype is defined as "Each specimen of a type series (q.v.) from which neither a holotype nor a lectotype has been designated rts. 72.1.2, 73.2, 74 The syntypes collectively constitute the name-bearing type." (Glossary of the zoological Code ). Historically, syntypes were often explicitly designated as such, and under the present ICZN this is a requirement (Art. 72.3), but modern attempts to publish species or subspecies descriptions based on syntypes are generally frowned upon by practicing taxonomists, and most are gradually being replaced by lectotypes. Those that still ex ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Nemipterus Furcosus
''Nemipterus furcosus'', the fork-tailed threadfin bream, also known as the rosy threadfin bream, is a species of threadfin bream native to Indian oceanic seas around Maldives, Sri Lanka, Andaman islands, and Pacific oceanic seas around Indonesia, and Australia.

Huffmanela Branchialis
''Huffmanela branchialis'' is a parasitic nematode It has been observed on the gills of the fork-tailed threadfin bream ''Nemipterus furcosus'', a nemipterid marine fish off New Caledonia. Its eggs are released from the gill mucosa with the turnover of living tissues and immediately continue their life-cycle. Description The adults are unknown, only the eggs were described. The eggs are 45–52 micrometers in length and 23–30 micrometers in width, with thin shells. Each egg is enclosed in a thin membrane forming a spindle-shaped envelope 53–85 micrometers in length.

Abalistes Stellatus
''Abalistes stellatus'' is a member of the triggerfish family that occurs along the coasts of the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Persian Gulf, and along the western edge of the Pacific Ocean. Environment ''Abalistes stellatus'' lives primarily in mud and silt; however, on sloping ground it often is found some distance above the surface. It is generally found on deep coastal slopes. Adults may be found in estuaries An estuary is a partially enclosed coastal body of brackish water with one or more rivers or streams flowing into it, and with a free connection to the open sea. Estuaries form a transition zone between river environments and maritime environmen ..., and juveniles of the species spend much of their pre-adult life there for protection. As a result of these varied habitats, adults range from 7–350 m in depth. Biology ''Abalistes stellatus'' grows to be about 60 cm in length. It has 25-27 dorsal rays (including spines) and 24-25 anal rays. As well its body ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Binomial Nomenclature
In taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called nomenclature ("two-name naming system") or binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin grammatical forms, although they can be based on words from other languages. Such a name is called a binomial name (which may be shortened to just "binomial"), a binomen, name or a scientific name; more informally it is also historically called a Latin name. The first part of the name – the '' generic name'' – identifies the genus to which the species belongs, whereas the second part – the specific name or specific epithet – distinguishes the species within the genus. For example, modern humans belong to the genus ''Homo'' and within this genus to the species ''Homo sapiens''. ''Tyrannosaurus rex'' is likely the most widely known binomial. The ''formal'' introduction of this system of naming species is credit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
