''Victoriana'' is a genus of hoverflies in the family Syrphidae. This genus, corresponding to the former ''Ocyptamus melanorrhinus'' species group, is currently divided into three species groups: '' V. attenuata'', '' V. melanorrhina'' and '' V. parvicornis'' species groups. Species list ''Victoriana'' has 3 species groups. * '' Victoriana attenuata'' (Williston, 1891) * '' Victoriana melanorrhina'' (Philippi, 1865) * '' Victoriana parvicornis'' (Loew, 1861) References Syrphini Syrphoidea genera {{Syrphidae-stub ...

Victoriana Parvicornis
''Ocyptamus parvicornis'', the scarlet hover fly, is a species in the family Syrphidae. It was proposed in 2020 that this species be moved to a new genus, '' Victoriana'', and it is now sometimes referred to as ''Victoriana parvicornis''.

Victoriana Melanorrhina
Victoriana is a term used to refer to material culture related to the Victorian period (1837–1901). It often refers to decorative objects, but can also describe a variety of artifacts from the era including graphic design, publications, photography, machinery, architecture, fashion, and Victorian collections of natural specimens. The term can also refer to Victorian-inspired designs, nostalgic representations, or references to Victorian-era aesthetics or culture appropriated for use in new contexts The term "Victoriana" was coined in 1918, just before a wave of interest in Victorian objects and artifacts began in the 1920s. Another increased period of collecting of Victoriana emerged in the 1950s. In 1951, the Festival of Britain commemorated the centenary of the Victorian era's first world's fair, the 1851 Great Exhibition held at the Crystal Palace. In the 1960s and 1970s, the eclectic character of Victorian era wood type inspired graphic designers like Seymour Ch ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Rodolfo Amando Philippi
Rodolfo Amando (or Rudolph Amandus) Philippi (14 September 1808 – 23 July 1904) was a German–Chilean paleontologist and zoologist. Philippi contributed primarily to malacology and paleontology. His grandson, Rodulfo Amando Philippi Bañados (1905-1969), was also a zoologist and in order to avoid confusion in zoological nomenclature, the elder is referred to as "Philippi rumwiede to distinguish him from his grandson "Philippi añados. Early life Philippi was born in Charlottenburg, Berlin to Johann Wilhelm Eberhard Philippi, a Prussian government auditor, and his third wife Maria Anna Krumwiede (m. 1806). The father had five children from two earlier marriages and Philippi was the eldest from the third marriage. In 1818, Philippi, his younger brother Bernhard Eunom (1811–1852) and their mother went to Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland, where they were educated at the Pestalozzian Institute founded by Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi (1746–1827). The teaching included the use o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Species List
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 binomial nomenclature, 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 (zoology), specific name or the specific name ( ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
