Lachnopus Mercator
''Lachnopus'' is a genus of broad-nosed weevils in the family Curculionidae distributed in the Caribbean Region. Taxonomy The genus ''Lachnopus'' was named for the first time by Carl Johan Schönherr in 1840 (p. 380). The names ''Menoetius'' Dejean, 1821-94 and ''Ptilopus'' Schönherr, 1823: c. 1140 are considered junior synonyms of ''Lachnopus''. The placement of ''Lachnopus'' within Entiminae has been unstable through time. It was considered part of Lacordaire's "Cyphides" (p. 107, 122) along with some genera considered nowadays to be part of the tribe Eustylini (Compsus, ''Exophthalmus'', ''Oxyderces'', '' Tetrabothinus'') or Naupactini ("''Cyphus''" -currently ''Cyrtomon''-, ''Platyomus''). Then considered among the Barynotini in van Emden (1944) and O'Brien and Wibmer (1982), a widespread assemblage of weevils which is now known as the Geonemini. The identity of ''Lachnopus'' has been questioned, specifically regarding its distinctness from ''Exophthalmus''. The ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Animalia
Animals are multicellular, eukaryotic organisms in the biological kingdom Animalia. With few exceptions, animals consume organic material, breathe oxygen, are able to move, can reproduce sexually, and go through an ontogenetic stage in which their body consists of a hollow sphere of cells, the blastula, during embryonic development. Over 1.5 million living animal species have been described—of which around 1 million are insects—but it has been estimated there are over 7 million animal species in total. Animals range in length from to . They have complex interactions with each other and their environments, forming intricate food webs. The scientific study of animals is known as zoology. Most living animal species are in Bilateria, a clade whose members have a Symmetry in biology#Bilateral symmetry, bilaterally symmetric body plan. The Bilateria include the protostomes, containing animals such as nematodes, arthropods, flatworms, annelids and molluscs, and th ...
