Museo Civico Di Storia Naturale Di Milano
The Museo Civico di Storia Naturale di Milano (Milan Natural History Museum) is a museum in Milan, Italy. It was founded in 1838 when naturalist Giuseppe de Cristoforis donated his collections to the city. Its first director was Giorgio Jan. The Museum is located within a 19th-century building in the Indro Montanelli Garden, near the historic city gate of Porta Venezia. The structure was built between 1888 and 1893 in Neo-Romanesque style with Gothic elements. The museum is divided into five different permanent sections: Mineralogy (with a large collection of minerals from all over the world); Paleontology (with several fossils of dinosaurs and other prehistoric organisms); Natural History of Man (dedicated to the origins and evolution of humans with a particular attention to the relationship of the latter with the environment); Invertebrate Zoology (dedicated to mollusks, arthropods and entomology); and Vertebrate Zoology (dedicated to vertebrates, both exotic and Europea ...

Tectarius Coronatus
''Tectarius coronatus'', common name beaded prickly winkle or coronate prickly-winkle, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Littorinidae, the winkles or periwinkles. It is the type species of the genus ''Tectarius'' and is native to the limestone coasts of islands in the western Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy ''T. coronatus'' is the type species of the genus ''Tectarius'' and was first described by the French zoologist Achille Valenciennes in 1833. In 1972, Rosewater made a revision of the genus and placed it in the subgenus ''tectarius''. Description The species has a trochoidal shell that reaches a size of . The spire is broad and surface of this shell is distinctively sculptured, being prickly or nodulose. The basic color is light orange or pale brown, with dark brown bands and a creamy-white interior.
