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 ...

Powellisetia Paroeca
''Powellisetia paroeca'' is an extinct species of marine gastropod mollusc in the family Rissoidae. First described by Harold John Finlay in 1924, it is known to have lived in New Zealand during the early Miocene. Taxonomy The species was identified in 1924 by Harold John Finlay as a subspecies of ''Powellisetia prisca'', and later described as a species in its own right. Description Finlay described both ''Powellisetia paroeca'' and ''Powellisetia prisca'' as follows: Finlay noted some differences between the two groups, namely that ''Powellisetia paroeca'' "...differs from the species only in slightly higher spire and more regularly curved outer lip, which slants downwards from suture without any medial angulation." Distribution Fossils of the species have only been identified in New Zealand. The holotype was collected from sandstone at Calamity Point in Clifden Clifden () is a coastal town in County Galway, Ireland, in the region of Connemara, located on the Owe ...
