Genus
Genus ( plural genera ) is a taxonomic rank used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In the hierarchy of biological classification, genus comes above species and below family (taxonomy), family. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants ...

Xenuroturris Cingulifera
''Iotyrris cingulifera'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Turridae, the turrids. Description The length of the fusiform shell is 53 mm and its diameter 16 mm. The shell is rather narrow with a very long spire and short siphonal canal. It is corded with larger and smaller riblets and raised lines. The shell is very slightly angulated on each whorl by a somewhat larger rib, which is occasionally bipartite. The growth striae are sharp, sometimes decussating the smaller spiral lines. The color of the shell is whitish, very closely and finely peppered with chestnut and with chestnut spots on the shoulder rib.

Iotyrris Cerithiformis
''Iotyrris cerithiformis'' is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Turridae, the turrids. Description The length of the shell attains 35 mm, its diameter 12 mm. (Original description by Pease) The fusiform, turreted shell is keeled all over. The keels are nearly of the same size, and almost equidistant. The keel on the middle of the whorls is slightly the largest. The intermediate superfices are concave. The interstices between the keels are finely striate longitudinally. The sinus is deep. The siphonal canal is short. The color of the shell is white, the keels are spotted with reddish brown. The above species may be distinguished by the regularity of its keels. The spots are small, oblong, and confined to the edge of the keels. Distribution This marine species occurs off the Hawaii Islands The Hawaiian Islands ( haw, Nā Mokupuni o Hawai‘i) are an archipelago of eight major islands, several atolls, and numerous smaller islets in the N ...

Sea Snail
Sea snail is a common name for slow-moving marine gastropod molluscs, usually with visible external shells, such as whelk or abalone. They share the taxonomic class Gastropoda with slugs, which are distinguished from snails primarily by the absence of a visible shell. Definition Determining whether some gastropods should be called sea snails is not always easy. Some species that live in brackish water (such as certain neritids) can be listed as either freshwater snails or marine snails, and some species that live at or just above the high tide level (for example species in the genus '' Truncatella'') are sometimes considered to be sea snails and sometimes listed as land snails. Anatomy Sea snails are a very large group of animals and a very diverse one. Most snails that live in salt water respire using a gill or gills; a few species, though, have a lung, are intertidal, and are active only at low tide when they can move around in the air. These air-breathing species includ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
