Scyllarus Arctus
''Scyllarus arctus'' is a species of slipper lobster which lives in the Mediterranean Sea and eastern Atlantic Ocean. It is uncommon in British and Irish waters, but a number of English-language vernacular names have been applied, including ''small European locust lobster'', ''lesser slipper lobster'' and ''broad lobster''. Distribution ''S. arctus'' is found throughout the Mediterranean Sea, and in eastern parts of the Atlantic Ocean, from the Azores, Madeira and the Canary Islands as far north as the English Channel. The species is rare north of the Bay of Biscay; several specimens have been seen in British waters, but nonetheless, ''S. arctus'' is rarer in Britain than the giant squid, ''Architeuthis dux''. Until 1960, ''S. arctus'' was thought to be the only species of ''Scyllarus'' in the Mediterranean Sea, but then it was realised that the lesser known ''Scyllarus pygmaeus'' is also present throughout much of the Mediterranean Sea.

Scyllarus Pygmaeus
''Scyllarus pygmaeus'' is a species of slipper lobster that lives in shallow water in the Mediterranean Sea and eastern Atlantic Ocean. It grows to a length of , which is too small for it to be fished for. The juvenile form was first described in 1885, with the description of the adult following in 1888 as a result of the ''Challenger'' expedition. Description ''S. pygmaeus'' is the smallest slipper lobster species, with a carapace length of for females, and for males. The total body length can reach , but is typically less than . Its small size precludes ''S. pygmaeus'' from being a target for fisheries. The body of ''S. pygmaeus'' is "pale brownish or pinkish with patches of darker hairs". ''S. pygmaeus'' resembles a young individual of ''Scyllarus arctus'', with which it occurs in sympatry. The two species can be distinguished by a suite of characters: *The anterior part of the abdominal tergites have a groove lined with hairs in ''S. pygmaeus'' but not in ''S. arctus ...

Slipper Lobster
Slipper lobsters are a family (Scyllaridae) of about 90 species of achelate crustaceans, in the Decapoda clade Reptantia, found in all warm oceans and seas. They are not true lobsters, but are more closely related to spiny lobsters and furry lobsters. Slipper lobsters are instantly recognisable by their enlarged antennae, which project forward from the head as wide plates. All the species of slipper lobsters are edible, and some, such as the Moreton Bay bug and the Balmain bug (''Ibacus peronii'') are of commercial importance. Description Slipper lobsters have six segments in their heads and eight segments in the thorax, which are collectively covered in a thick carapace. The six segments of the abdomen each bear a pair of pleopods, while the thoracic appendages are either walking legs or maxillipeds. The head segments bear various mouthparts and two pairs of antennae. The first antennae, or ''antennules'', are held on a long flexible stalk, and are used for sensing the env ...

Systema Naturae
' (originally in Latin written ' with the ligature æ) is one of the major works of the Swedish botanist, zoologist and physician Carl Linnaeus (1707–1778) and introduced the Linnaean taxonomy. Although the system, now known as binomial nomenclature, was partially developed by the Bauhin brothers, Gaspard and Johann, Linnaeus was first to use it consistently throughout his book. The first edition was published in 1735. The full title of the 10th edition (1758), which was the most important one, was ' or translated: "System of nature through the three kingdoms of nature, according to classes, orders, genera and species, with characters, differences, synonyms, places". The tenth edition of this book (1758) is considered the starting point of zoological nomenclature. In 1766–1768 Linnaeus published the much enhanced 12th edition, the last under his authorship. Another again enhanced work in the same style and titled "'" was published by Johann Friedrich Gmelin between 1788 a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
