Beauchampius Indosinicus
''Beauchampius'' is a genus of land planarians in the tribe Pelmatoplaninini. Description The genus ''Beauchampius'' includes planarians with weak cutaneous longitudinal musculature and strong parenchymal musculature forming a ring zone. The copulatory apparatus has a well-developed conical penis papilla and two female ducts opening into the genital atrium, one from the ventral female canal and other from the dorsal diverticulum that in some cases forms a seminal bursa. Etymology The genus ''Beauchampius'' was named in honor of Paul Marais de Beauchamp, who studied land planarians for more than 60 years. Species The genus ''Beauchampius'' includes the following species: *''Beauchampius bangoianus'' (de Beauchamp, 1939) *'' Beauchampius coonoorensis'' (de Beauchamp, 1930) *''Beauchampius crassus'' (de Beauchamp, 1939) *'' Beauchampius dawydoffi'' (de Beauchamp, 1939) *'' Beauchampius indosinicus'' (de Beauchamp, 1939) *''Beauchampius nilgiriensis'' (Whitehouse, 1919) * ...

Robert E
The name Robert is an ancient Germanic given name, from Proto-Germanic "fame" and "bright" (''Hrōþiberhtaz''). Compare Old Dutch ''Robrecht'' and Old High German ''Hrodebert'' (a compound of '' Hruod'' ( non, Hróðr) "fame, glory, honour, praise, renown" and '' berht'' "bright, light, shining"). It is the second most frequently used given name of ancient Germanic origin. It is also in use as a surname. Another commonly used form of the name is Rupert. After becoming widely used in Continental Europe it entered England in its Old French form ''Robert'', where an Old English cognate form (''Hrēodbēorht'', ''Hrodberht'', ''Hrēodbēorð'', ''Hrœdbœrð'', ''Hrœdberð'', ''Hrōðberχtŕ'') had existed before the Norman Conquest. The feminine version is Roberta. The Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish form is Roberto. Robert is also a common name in many Germanic languages, including English, German, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish, Scots, Danish, and Icelandic. It c ...

After his mother died of an acute pneumonia when he was 7 years old, Kawakatsu became closer to his maternal grandfather, who had a passion for sciences, and learned from him the names of many plants and animals that grew around the house, including their scientific names. In April 1941, he attended the Sonobe Middle School and joined a Natural History Club. In 1946, he started his studies at the Kyoto Normal College (currently Kyoto University of Education), at the time an educatio ...

Reproductive System Of Planarians
The reproductive system of planarians is broadly similar among different families, although the associated structures can vary in complexity. All planarians are hermaphrodites, so their reproductive system has a male and a female part. Both parts communicate with the surface of the body via a single opening called gonopore, which is located on the ventral side of the posterior half of the body. Male part of the reproductive system The male part of the reproductive system in planarians has a set of several testicles, distributed throughout the body in two or more rows. They are usually concentrated in the anterior two thirds of the body, although they can reach close to the posterior end. The testicles are connected to a pair of sperm ducts which run posteriorly towards the gonopore. In some groups, the sperm ducts met in their distal part, forming the ejaculatory duct, which then opens in a cavity called “male atrium”. In others, like land planarians, both open i ...
