Louis Joubin
Louis Marie Adolphe Olivier Édouard Joubin (27 February 1861 in Épinal – 24 April 1935 in Paris) was a professor at the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle in Paris. He published works on nemerteans, chaetognatha, cephalopods, and other molluscs. He served as an assistant to Henri de Lacaze-Duthiers, subsequently becoming director of the laboratories at Banyuls-sur-Mer (1882) and Roscoff (1884). Later on, he became an instructor at the University of Rennes,Prosopo Sociétés savantes and in 1903 succeeded as ''chaire des mollusques, des vers et des zoophytes'' at the |
Species
A species () is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate sexes or mating types can produce fertile offspring, typically by sexual reproduction. It is the basic unit of Taxonomy (biology), classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. Other ways of defining species include their karyotype, DNA sequence, morphology (biology), morphology, behaviour, or ecological niche. In addition, palaeontologists use the concept of the chronospecies since fossil reproduction cannot be examined. The most recent rigorous estimate for the total number of species of eukaryotes is between 8 and 8.7 million. About 14% of these had been described by 2011. All species (except viruses) are given a binomial nomenclature, two-part name, a "binomen". The first part of a binomen is the name of a genus to which the species belongs. The second part is called the specific name (zoology), specific name or the specific ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Genus
Genus (; : genera ) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family (taxonomy), family as used in the biological classification of extant taxon, living and fossil organisms as well as Virus classification#ICTV classification, viruses. In binomial nomenclature, the genus name forms the first part of the binomial species name for each species within the genus. :E.g. ''Panthera leo'' (lion) and ''Panthera onca'' (jaguar) are two species within the genus ''Panthera''. ''Panthera'' is a genus within the family Felidae. The composition of a genus is determined by taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. The standards for genus classification are not strictly codified, so different authorities often produce different classifications for genera. There are some general practices used, however, including the idea that a newly defined genus should fulfill these three criteria to be descriptively useful: # monophyly – all descendants of an ancestral taxon are grouped together (i.e. Phylogeneti ...

Bobtail Squid
Bobtail squid (order Sepiolida) are a group of cephalopods closely related to cuttlefish. Bobtail squid tend to have a rounder mantle (mollusc), mantle than cuttlefish and have no cuttlebone. They have eight suckered arms and two tentacles and are generally quite small (typical male mantle length being between ). Sepiolids live in shallow coastal waters of the Pacific Ocean and some parts of the Indian Ocean and Atlantic Ocean as well as in shallow waters on the west coast of the Cape Peninsula off South Africa. Like cuttlefish, they can swim by either using the Cephalopod fin, fins on their mantle or by jet propulsion. They are also known as "dumpling squid" (owing to their rounded mantle) or "stubby squid". Light organ Bobtail squid have a symbiotic relationship with bioluminescent bacteria (''Aliivibrio fischeri''), which inhabit a special light organ in the squid's mantle. The luminescent properties of the bacteria regulate gene expression in the light organ. The bacteria ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Amanda Reid (malacologist)
Amanda "Mandy" Louise Reid is an Australian taxonomist and malacologist. She held the position of collection manager of malacology at the Australian Museum from 2010 to 2023. She is a published researcher and author. Her research has resulted in the description of many species of velvet worms and cephalopods. Career Reid is an alumna of Macquarie University, a public research university in Sydney, Australia, where she completed a Bachelor of Science degree in 1984. She completed a Master of Science degree in 1990, with a thesis titled ''Taxonomic review of the Australian Rossiinae (Cephalopoda : Sepiolidae).'' She completed a PhD in 1996, with a thesis titled ''A systematic review of the Peripatopsidae (Onychophora) in Australia''. Reid has an interest in cephalopods, particularly bobtail or bottletail squids (Sepiolidae), cuttlefishes (Sepiidae), and pygmy squids ( Idiosepiidae). She has authored two books, and her research has been published in a number of scientific jou ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
