Malacosteus Indicus
The stoplight loosejaws are small, deep-sea dragonfishes of the genus ''Malacosteus'', classified either within the subfamily Malacosteinae of the family Stomiidae, or in the separate family Malacosteidae. They are found worldwide, outside of the Arctic and Subantarctic, in the mesopelagic zone below a depth of . This genus once contained three nominal species: ''M. niger'' (the type), ''M. choristodactylus'', and ''M. danae'', with the validity of the latter two species being challenged by different authors at various times. In 2007, Kenaley examined over 450 stoplight loosejaw specimens and revised the genus to contain two species, ''M. niger'' and the new ''M. australis''. ''Malacosteus'' and the related genera ''Aristostomias'', ''Chirostomias'' and ''Pachystomias'' are the only fishes that produce red bioluminescence. As most of their prey organisms are not capable of perceiving light at those wavelengths, this allows ''Malacosteus'' to hunt with an essentially invisible be ...

Mediorhynchus Indicus
''Mediorhynchus'' is a genus of small parasitic spiny-headed (or thorny-headed) worms. Phylogenetic analysis has been conducted on two known species of ''Mediorhynchus'' and confirmed the placement along with the related genus Gigantorhynchus in the family Gigantorhynchida. The distinguishing features of this order among archiacanthocephalans is a divided proboscis (specifically, the presence of a "teloboscis" which is the posterior third of a proboscis). This genus contains fifty-eight species that are distributed globally. These worms exclusively parasitize birds by attaching themselves around the cloaca using their hook-covered proboscis. The bird hosts are of different orders. Taxonomy and description ''Mediorhynchus'' is monophyletic based on phylogenetic analysis. Species can be identified primarily morphologically by the arrangement of hooks of the proboscis. The presence of a divided proboscis (specifically, the presence of a "teloboscis" which is the posterior third of a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Melanobatrachus Indicus
''Melanobatrachus'' is a genus of narrow-mouthed frogs in the family Microhylidae. It is the only remaining genus in the monotypic subfamily Melanobatrachinae. It contains a single species, ''Melanobatrachus indicus'', also known as the Indian black microhylid frog and Malabar black narrow-mouthed frog. It is endemic to wet evergreen forests of southern Western Ghats in Kerala and Tamil Nadu states of India. It has been recorded from Anaimalai, Munnar, Palni hills, Periyar Tiger Reserve and Kalakkad Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve ''Melanobatrachus indicus'' is a rare species that was only rediscovered in 1997. It lives amongst leaf-litter, rocks and other ground cover of moist evergreen tropical forests. The subfamily Melanobatrachinae included two African genera, ''Hoplophryne'' Barbour & Loveridge, 1928 and ''Parhoplophryne'' Barbour & Loveridge, 1928, in the past but they are now placed in the subfamily Hoplophryninae.

Melichthys Indicus
The Indian triggerfish (''Melichthys indicus''), also known as the black-finned triggerfish, has a brown body and black fins with white lines at the base of the dorsal and anal fins. It is found across the Indian Ocean. They can grow up to long. The Indian triggerfish usually feeds on hard-shelled mollusks and echinoderms, but some feed on algae and zooplankton. They are often very aggressive over their eggs, but are otherwise harmless. Indian triggerfish are very easy to keep at home, Some are peaceful but some are very aggressive towards other fish. These are not to be confused with the Hawaiian black triggerfish or black durgon (''Melichthys niger''), which is often mistaken as being Indian triggerfish within the trade. The Indian triggerfish has never been found near Hawaii, but the two species bear a striking resemblance between each other because of the similar shape and coloration.

Melilotus Indicus
''Melilotus indicus'', sometimes incorrectly written ''Melilotus indica'', is a yellow-flowered herb native to northern Africa, Europe and Asia, but naturalized throughout the rest of the world. Common names in English include sweet clover (or sweet-clover), sour clover (sour-clover, sourclover), Indian sweet-clover, annual yellow sweetclover, Bokhara clover, small-flowered sweet clover, common melilot, small-flowered melilot, small melilot, sweet melilot, Californian lucerne and Hexham scent. In Australia and New Zealand, where it is naturalised, it is sometimes called King Island melilot or King Island clover. Description It is an annual or biennial herb from in height (rarely to one metre), with yellow flowers. Similar to ''Melilotus altissima'' Thuill. in general. The flowers are 2 – 3 mm long they produces a hairless pod of similar length.Webb, D.A., Parnell, J. and Doogue, D. 1996. ''An Irish Flora.'' Dundalgan Press Ltd., Dundalk.

Methanocaldococcus Indicus
''Methanocaldococcus'' formerly known as ''Methanococcus'' is a genus of coccoid methanogen archaea. They are all mesophiles, except the thermophilic ''M. thermolithotrophicus'' and the hyperthermophilic ''M. jannaschii''. The latter was discovered at the base of a “white smoker” chimney at 21° N on the East Pacific Rise and it was the first archaean genome to be completely sequenced, revealing many novel and eukaryote-like elements. Nomenclature The name ''Methanocaldococcus'' has Latin and Greek roots, ''methano'' for methane, ''caldo'' for hot, and the Greek ''kokkos'' for the spherical shape of the cells. Overall, the name means ''spherical cell that produces methane at hot temperatures''. Metabolism All species in ''Methanocaldococcus'' are obligate methanogens. They use hydrogen to reduce carbon dioxide. Unlike many other species within Euryarchaeota, they cannot use formate, acetate, methanol or methylamines as substrates.

Metopidius Indicus
The bronze-winged jacana (''Metopidius indicus'') is a wader in the family Jacanidae. It is found across South and Southeast Asia and is the sole species in the genus ''Metopidius''. Like other jacanas it forages on lilies and other floating aquatic vegetation, the long feet spreading out its weight and preventing sinking. The sexes are alike but females are slightly larger and are polyandrous, maintaining a harem of males during the breeding season in the monsoon rains. Males maintain territories, with one male in the harem chosen to incubate the eggs and take care of the young. When threatened, young chicks may be carried to safety by the male under his wings. Taxonomy and systematics The bronze-winged jacana was formally described by the English ornithologist John Latham in 1790 and given the binomial name ''Parra indica''. He placed it in the genus ''Parra'' along with all the other jacanas. Latham had earlier included the species in a supplement to his ''A General Synops ...

Monopterus Indicus
The Bombay swamp eel (''Ophichthys indicus''), also known as the paytop in Marathi, is a species of fish in the family Synbranchidae. It is endemic to the state of Maharashtra in India. Taxonomy It was at first classified in the genus ''Amphipnous'', but it was later moved to ''Monopterus''. However a 2020 study found it to form a distinct clade with about 4 other species also previously classified in ''Monopterus'', and the genus ''Ophichthys'' was thus revived to contain them. Distribution This species is thought to be endemic to the northern Western Ghats of India, in the state of Maharashtra. It is currently known from 5-10 localities: Robber's Cave and Dhobi Falls in Mahabaleshwar, Kanheri Falls near Kanheri Caves in Mumbai, and the Tamhini and Tail Baila areas in Pune. However, it is thought to occur in other localities as well. Habitat The species inhabits swamps and marshy areas associated with hill streams. During the early part of the monsoon season, adult ...

Mucor Indicus
''Mucor indicus'' is among the most important members of zygomycetes fungi. This dimorphic fungus is capable of production of several valuable products. Some strains of the fungus have been isolated from the traditional Indonesian food tempeh. M. indicus is nowadays used for production of several homemade food and beverages especially in Asia. This has also been successfully used as a safe nutritional source for fish and rat. The fungus is generally regarded as safe though there are few reports claiming that this is a pathogenic fungus. The capability of the fungus in production of ethanol is comparable with that of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'' () (brewer's yeast or baker's yeast) is a species of yeast (single-celled fungus microorganisms). The species has been instrumental in winemaking, baking, and brewing since ancient times. It is believed to have been o ....

''Mycobacterium indicus pranii'' (MIP), earlier known as Mw, is a non-pathogenic In biology, a pathogen ( el, πάθος, "suffering", "passion" and , "producer of") in the oldest and broadest sense, is any organism or agent that can produce disease. A pathogen may also be referred to as an infectious agent, or simply a germ ... mycobacterial species, which, based on its growth characteristics and metabolic properties, is validly classified as a member of the Mycobacterium avium complex. The novelty of this bacterium is due to its translational application as an immunotherapeutic. The genome of the organism has now been completely sequenced. The origin of the proposed name is a combination of the site of isolation of the bacterial species from India (indicus), discovery by ''Pran'' Talwar (''pran''ii) and characterization at the ''N''ational ''I''nstitute of ''I''mmunology, India (pra''nii'').
