These snails usually grow cemented onto a hard surface, or cemented together in colonies. Shell description These snails do not have typical regularly coiled gastropod shells; instead, they have very irregular elongated tubular shells which are moulded to, and cemented to, a surface of attachment such as a rock or another shell. In the adult, the aperture (mollusc), apertural part of the shell is usual ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Serpulidae
The Serpulidae are a family (biology), family of Sessility (zoology), sessile, tube worm (body plan), tube-building annelid worms in the class Polychaeta. The members of this family differ from other Sabellidae, sabellid tube worms in that they have a specialized Operculum (animal), operculum that blocks the entrance of their tubes when they withdraw into the tubes. In addition, serpulids secrete tubes of calcium carbonate. Serpulids are the most important biomineralising polychaetes, biomineralizers among annelids. About 300 species in the family Serpulidae are known, all but one of which live in saline waters. The earliest serpulids are known from the Permian (Wordian to lopingian, late Permian). The blood of most species of serpulid and sabellid worms contains the oxygen-binding pigment chlorocruorin. This is used to transport oxygen to the tissues. It has an affinity for carbon monoxide which is 570 times as strong as that of the haemoglobin found in human blood. Empty serpul ...

Freiberger Forschungshefte
The Freiberger, also known as Franches-Montagnes, is a horse breed from Switzerland, from the Jura region, described as either a "heavy warmblood" or a "light coldblood". It was widely used as draft and pack horse in the Swiss army. It has a good disposition and is versatile, suitable for both driving and riding. Each year at the ''Marché Concours'' in Saignelégier in the Franches-Montagnes district of the Swiss canton of Jura, on the second weekend in August, a variety of shows and competitions are held. Breed characteristics History The presence of an autochthonous horse breed in the Jura traces to the year 1619. By the early 19th century, there were active breeders in the district of Franches-Montagnes. In 1817, there were 4,000 breeding mares on record. The horses were bred for use in agriculture and by the army as pack animals and artillery draft horses. There are records of imports of Anglo-Norman horses for the year 1821, and of other horses from England, Fr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
