Fungus
A fungus (: fungi , , , or ; or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and mold (fungus), molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as one of the kingdom (biology)#Six kingdoms (1998), traditional eukaryotic kingdoms, along with Animalia, Plantae, and either Protista or Protozoa and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of motility, mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related o ...

Hystricella Turricula
''Wollastonaria turricula'' is a species of small, air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Geomitridae.MolluscaBase eds. (2022). MolluscaBase. Wollastonaria turricula (R. T. Lowe, 1831). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species at: https://www.marinespecies.org/aphia.php?p=taxdetails&id=1340237 on 2022-07-21 This species is indigenous to the Madeira archipelago, where it only occurs on the islet Ilhéu de Cima.

It may be easily distinguished, through external morphology, from all ''Hystricella'' and ''Wollastonia'' species from its "peculiarly turreted shell". Distribution and Ecology ''Hystricella turricula'' is endemic to the coastal slopes and plateaus on the islet Ilhéu de Cima on the southeastern coast of Porto Santo. The species occurs under volcanic rocks and debris scattered in open ...
