Tomichia Differens
''Tomichia differens'' is a species of freshwater gastropod in the family Tomichiidae endemic to perennial streams and rivers in Western Cape Province, South Africa. Described by Connolly in 1939, ''T. differens'' is found in two sites at De Kelders and Stilbaai, and has amphibious habits and a tolerance of slight salinity and desiccation throughout its habitats. The genus ''Tomichia'' is very sensitive to changes in ecosystem conditions, and thus are threatened by pollution and climate change (manifested here through rain cycles). The Stilbaai site is in danger of becoming uninhabitable due to residential developments and offshore drilling operations, and thus this species has been listed as Endangered by the IUCN The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN; officially International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources) is an international organization working in the field of nature conservation and sustainable use of natu ...

Annals And Magazine Of Natural History
The ''Journal of Natural History'' is a scientific journal published by Taylor & Francis focusing on entomology and zoology. The journal was established in 1841 under the name ''Annals and Magazine of Natural History'' (''Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist.'') and obtained its current title in 1967. The journal was formed by the merger of the ''Magazine of Natural History'' (1828–1840) and the ''Annals of Natural History'' (1838–1840; previously the ''Magazine of Zoology and Botany'', 1836–1838) and '' Loudon and Charlesworth's Magazine of Natural History''. In September 1855, the ''Annals and Magazine of Natural History'' published "On the Law which has Regulated the Introduction of New Species", a paper which Alfred Russel Wallace had written while working in the state of Sarawak on the island of Borneo in February of that year.
