Red Bandfish
''Cepola'' is a genus of Marine (ocean), marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the bandfish family (biology), family, Cepolidae. The name red bandfish is applied to all members of this genus, but particularly ''C. macrophthalma'', and generally not ''C. australis'', which is also known as the Australian bandfish. Taxonomy ''Cepola'' was first formally described as a genus in 1764 by Carolus Linnaeus with ''Ophidion macrophthalmum'' as the type species by monotypy. The generic name ''Cepola'' means "little onion", Linnaeus did not explain why he chose this name. It is likely derived from ''cepollam'' or ''cepulam'', which in 1686 was said by Francis Willughby to be local names among Rome, Roman fishermen for the similar "''Fierasfer"'', a pearlfish, to which Linnaeus believed ''Cepola macrophthalma'' was related. As well as this, in 1872 Giovanni Canestrini reported that in Naples the common name for ''C. macropthalma'' is ''Pesce cipolia'' meaning “onion fish”. Species There ...

Cepola Macrophthalma
''Cepola macrophthalma'' is a species of marine ray-finned fish belonging to the family Cepolidae, the bandfishes. It is found in the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean from Senegal north to the British Isles. This species is known as the red bandfish, though this name is also given to other members of the genus '' Cepola''. Taxonomy ''Cepola macrophthalma'' was first formally described as ''Ophidion macrophthalmum'' in 1758 by Carl Linnaeus with the type locality given as Algiers. In 1764 Linnaeus described the genus '' Cepola'' with ''O. macrophthalmum'' as its type species by monotypy. The specific name, ''macrophthalma'' is a compound of ''macro'' meaning "large" and ''ophthalmus'' which means "eyed", a reference to the large eyes which are larger than a third of the length of the head. Distribution It is found on the coast and inner continental shelf of the eastern Atlantic between northern Senegal and Scotland and the Mediterranean west of the Aegean Sea and the N ...

Deipnosophistae
The ''Deipnosophistae'' is an early 3rd-century AD Greek work ( grc, Δειπνοσοφισταί, ''Deipnosophistaí'', lit. "The Dinner Sophists/Philosophers/Experts") by the Greek author Athenaeus of Naucratis. It is a long work of literary, historical, and antiquarian references set in Rome at a series of banquets held by the protagonist for an assembly of grammarians, lexicographers, jurists, musicians, and hangers-on. Title The Greek title ''Deipnosophistaí'' () derives from the combination of ' (, "dinner") and ''sophistḗs'' (, "expert, one knowledgeable in the arts of ~"). It and its English derivative ''s'' thus describe people who are skilled at dining, particularly the refined conversation expected to accompany Greek symposia. However, the term is shaded by the harsh treatment accorded to professional teachers in Plato's Socratic dialogues, which made the English term ' into a pejorative. In English, Athenaeus's work usually known by its Latin form ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mithaecus
Mithaecus (Ancient Greek: Μίθαικος) was a cook and cookbook author of the late 5th century BC. A Greek-speaking native of Sicily at a time when the island was rich and highly civilized, Mithaecus is credited with having brought knowledge of Sicilian gastronomy to Greece. Specifically, according to sources of varying reliability, he worked in Sparta, from which he was expelled as a bad influence, and in Athens. He earned an unfavourable mention in Plato's dialogue ''Gorgias''. Mithaecus is the first known author of any cookbook, and his is the first known (if not extant) Greek cookbook. One very brief recipe survives from it, thanks to a quotation in the ''Deipnosophistae'' of Athenaeus. It is in the Doric dialect of Greek (appropriate both to Greek Sicily and to Sparta) and describes, in one line, how to deal with the fish '' Cepola macrophthalma'', a ribbon-like fish here called ''tainia'' (known in Italian as ''cepola'' and in modern Greek as ''kordella''): :''Tainia'': ...

Acanthocepola
''Acanthocepola'' is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Cepolidae the bandfishes. They are native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy ''Acanthocepola'' is classified within the subfamily Cepolinae. The genus was first formally described in 1874 by the Dutch physician and ichthyologist Pieter Bleeker who designated ''Cepola krusensternii'', which had been described by Coenraad Jacob Temminck & Hermann Schlegel in 1845, as the type species, although the genus was also monotypic. The genus name, ''Acanthocepola'' is a compound of ''acanthus'' meaning "spine" and '' Cepola'' the type genus of the family Cepolidae, a reference to the spines on the edge of the preoperculum. Species There are currently four recognized species in this genus: * ''Acanthocepola abbreviata'' (Valenciennes, 1835) (Bandfish) * ''Acanthocepola indica'' ( F. Day, 1888) * ''Acanthocepola krusensternii'' (Temminck & Schlegel, 1845) (Red-spotted bandfish) * ''Acan ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Pieter Bleeker
Pieter Bleeker (10 July 1819 – 24 January 1878) was a Dutch medical doctor, ichthyologist, and herpetologist. He was famous for the ''Atlas Ichthyologique des Indes Orientales Néêrlandaises'', his monumental work on the fishes of East Asia published between 1862 and 1877. Life and work Bleeker was born on 10 July 1819 in Zaandam. He was employed as a medical officer in the Royal Netherlands East Indies Army from 1842 to 1860, (in French). stationed in the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). During that time, he did most of his ichthyology work, besides his duties in the army. He acquired many of his specimens from local fishermen, but he also built up an extended network of contacts who would send him specimens from various government outposts throughout the islands. During his time in Indonesia, he collected well over 12,000 specimens, many of which currently reside at the Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden. Bleeker corresponded with Auguste Duméril of Paris. His w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

10th Edition Of Systema Naturae
The 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae'' is a book written by Swedish naturalist Carl Linnaeus and published in two volumes in 1758 and 1759, which marks the starting point of zoological nomenclature. In it, Linnaeus introduced binomial nomenclature for animals, something he had already done for plants in his 1753 publication of ''Species Plantarum''. Starting point Before 1758, most biological catalogues had used polynomial names for the taxa included, including earlier editions of ''Systema Naturae''. The first work to consistently apply binomial nomenclature across the animal kingdom was the 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae''. The International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature therefore chose 1 January 1758 as the "starting point" for zoological nomenclature, and asserted that the 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae'' was to be treated as if published on that date. Names published before that date are unavailable, even if they would otherwise satisfy the rules. The onl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
