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]
picture info	Leaf Insects The family Phylliidae (often misspelled Phyllidae) contains the extant true leaf insects or walking leaves, which include some of the most remarkably camouflaged leaf mimics (mimesis) in the entire animal kingdom. They occur from South Asia through Southeast Asia to Australia. Earlier sources treat Phylliidae as a much larger taxon, containing genera in what are presently considered to be several different families. Characteristics Leaf insects are camouflaged, taking on the appearance of leaves. They do this so accurately that predators often are not able to distinguish them from real leaves. In some species, the edge of the leaf insect's body has the appearance of bite marks. To further confuse predators, when the leaf insect walks, it rocks back and forth, mimicking a real leaf being blown by the wind. The scholar Antonio Pigafetta probably was the first Western person to document the creature, though it was known to people in the tropics for a long time. Sailing with Ferdin ...

picture info	Phyllium ''Phyllium''Illiger (1798) ''Verzeichnis der Käfer Preussens'' 499. is the largest and most widespread genus of leaf insects in the family Phylliidae ( Phasmatodea). They can be found in Sundaland, Philippine Islands, Wallacea, and Australasia. Species Within the genus ''Phyllium'', apart from ''Phyllium'' itself, the subgenus ''Pulchriphyllium'' established by Griffini in 1898 has been differentiated. With '' Comptaphyllium'' and '' Walaphyllium'' two further subgenera were described in 2019 and 2020. Since 2021, all three subgenera have been regarded as separate genera. The ''Phasmida Species File'' list the following species: * ''Phyllium antonkozlovi'' * ''Phyllium arthurchungi'' * '' Phyllium bilobatum'' * '' Phyllium bonifacioi'' * ''Phyllium bourquei'' * ''Phyllium bradleri'' * ''Phyllium brossardi'' * ''Phyllium chenqiae'' * ''Phyllium conlei'' * ''Phyllium cummingi'' * '' Phyllium elegans'' * '' Phyllium ericoriai'' * ''Phyllium fallorum'' * '' Phylliu ...
