Bembexia Minima
† ''Bembexia'' is a genus of fossil sea snails, marine (ocean), marine gastropod mollusks. This genus is placed in the subfamily Eotomariinae, of the Family (biology), family Eotomariidae. The shell characters resemble those of Balbinipleura. These snails have been interpreted as herbivorous, probably grazing on algae. These fossils are found in sedimentary rocks deposited from 340 to , including the Hamilton Group of eastern North America. Other fossil sites include Alaska, Western Europe including the UK, Venezuela, China and Australia. Species Species within the genus ''Bembexia'' include: * ''Bembexia adjutor'' * ''Bembexia babini'' * ''Bembexia chapernowni'' * ''Bembexia crenatostriata'' * ''Bembexia disjuncta'' * ''Bembexia gradilispira'' * ''Bembexia headillus'' * ''Bembexia insolita'' * ''Bembexia inumbilicata'' * ''Bembexia laevis'' * ''Bembexia larteti'' * ''Bembexia micula'' * ''Bembexia minima'' * ''Bembexia neapolitana'' * ''Bembexia planidorsalis'' * ''Bembexia pr ...

Animal
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the Biology, biological Kingdom (biology), kingdom Animalia (). With few exceptions, animals heterotroph, consume organic material, Cellular respiration#Aerobic respiration, breathe oxygen, have myocytes and are motility, able to move, can reproduce sexually, and grow from a hollow sphere of Cell (biology), cells, the blastula, during embryonic development. Animals form a clade, meaning that they arose from a single common ancestor. Over 1.5 million extant taxon, living animal species have been species description, described, of which around 1.05 million are insects, over 85,000 are molluscs, and around 65,000 are vertebrates. It has been estimated there are as many as 7.77 million animal species on Earth. Animal body lengths range from to . They have complex ecologies and biological interaction, interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as ...
