Phyllomorpha Laciniata
''Phyllomorpha laciniata'' (the golden egg bug) is a species of Coreoidea, coreid bug, and one of only two members of the genus ''Phyllomorpha''. They are specific to the host plant ''Paronychia argentea''. It is noted for its habit of laying its eggs on other members of its species, who act as mobile nests (oviposition substrate). These co-opted egg carriers provide more protection for the eggs than laying them at static locations on plant leaves or stems. While ''Phyllomorpha laciniata'' females can and do lay eggs on their host plant, the availability of suitable egg carriers seems to stimulate the deposition of mature eggs.

Charles Joseph Devillers
Charles Joseph Devillers or de Villers (1724 in Rennes – 1810) was a French naturalist. Charles Devillers was a member of l’Académie des sciences belles-lettres et arts de Lyon from 1764 to 1810. He had a cabinet of curiosities and was interested in physics and mathematics. He published ''Caroli Linnaei entomologia'', in 1789, a collection of the insect descriptions of Carl von Linné. He was a friend of Philibert Commerson (1727–1773), Jean-Emmanuel Gilibert Jean-Emmanuel Gilibert (21 June 1741, in Lyon – 2 September 1814, in Lyon) was a French politician, botanist, freemason, medical doctor and member of the Academy of Sciences, Humanities and Arts of Lyon __NOTOC__ The Academy of Sciences, Human ...

Coreoidea
Coreoidea is a superfamily of true bugs in the infraorder Pentatomomorpha which includes leaf-footed bugs and allies. There are more than 3,300 described species in Coreoidea. There are five extant families presently recognized, but the Coreoidea as a whole are part of a close-knit group with the Lygaeoidea and Pyrrhocoroidea and it is likely that these three superfamilies are paraphyletic to a significant extent; they are therefore in need of revision and redelimitation. The families are: * Alydidae Amyot & Serville, 1843 – broad-headed bugs * Coreidae Leach, 1815 – leaf-footed bugs and squash bugs * Hyocephalidae Bergroth, 1906 * Rhopalidae – scentless plant bugs * Stenocephalidae Amyot & Serville, 1843 * † Trisegmentatidae Zhang, Sun & Zhang, 1994 * † Yuripopovinidae Yuripopovinidae is an extinct family of Coreoidea Hemipteran true bugs. Member species are known from the Early Cretaceous and early Late Cretaceous of Asia and northern Gondwana. Among ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Paronychia Argentea
''Paronychia argentea'' (Algerian Tea) is an herbaceous plant from the family Caryophyllaceae that grows in sandy areas, ways, abandoned fields and dry terrains. Description It is an annual species with procumbent habits, which reaches 30 cm height. Similar to '' Paronychia capitata'' but with almost all glabrous leaves, a rigid and prominent sow, and calyx lobules with transparent margins. The stem is glabrous or pubescent, with opposite, elliptical and mucronate leaves. The flowers grow in lateral and terminal glomerulus. They are hermaphrodite, pentamerous and actinomorphic, accompanied with scaly silver bracts bigger that themselves. The fruit is an achene. Habitat and distribution They can be encountered all around the Mediterranean Sea. It grows in abandoned or dry terrains, dunes and ditches, and flourishes from winter to summer. Uses It is used stewed, as a diuretic and blood purifier, and as a plaster to cure wounds. Taxonomy ''Paronychia argentea'' ...

Species Description
A species description is a formal description of a newly discovered species, usually in the form of a scientific paper. Its purpose is to give a clear description of a new species of organism and explain how it differs from species that have been described previously or are related. In order for species to be validly described, they need to follow guidelines established over time. Zoological naming requires adherence to the ICZN code, plants, the ICN, viruses ICTV, and so on. The species description often contains photographs or other illustrations of type material along with a note on where they are deposited. The publication in which the species is described gives the new species a formal scientific name. Some 1.9 million species have been identified and described, out of some 8.7 million that may actually exist. Millions more have become extinct throughout the existence of life on Earth. Naming process A name of a new species becomes valid (available in zo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
