Pseudobornella
''Dendronotus'' is a genus of sea slugs, nudibranchs, marine gastropod molluscs in the superfamily Tritonioidea.Bouchet, P.; Gofas, S. (2014)''Dendronotus'' Alder & Hancock, 1845.Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species on 2015-01-22. This genus is within the clade Cladobranchia (according to the taxonomy of the Gastropoda by Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). Description ''Dendronotus'' has an elongated, broad body, with 4 to 8 pairs of branched cerata on the notum. Animals in this genus have an obvious oral veil with 2 to 5 extensions. These extensions may be branched. Smaller unbranched extensions are found around the mouth. The rhinophores are surrounded by a sheath and the sheath itself has branched extensions. A large extension is found on the side at the base of each rhinophore. The anal opening occurs between the first and second set of dorsal cerata on the right side of the body.Ekimova, I.; Korshunova, T.; Schepetov, D.; Neretina, T.; Sanamyan, N.; Martynov, A. (20 ...

Gastropod
The gastropods (), commonly known as snails and slugs, belong to a large taxonomic class of invertebrates within the phylum Mollusca called Gastropoda (). This class comprises snails and slugs from saltwater, from freshwater, and from land. There are many thousands of species of sea snails and slugs, as well as freshwater snails, freshwater limpets, and land snails and slugs. The class Gastropoda contains a vast total of named species, second only to the insects in overall number. The fossil history of this class goes back to the Late Cambrian. , 721 families of gastropods are known, of which 245 are extinct and appear only in the fossil record, while 476 are currently extant with or without a fossil record. Gastropoda (previously known as univalves and sometimes spelled "Gasteropoda") are a major part of the phylum Mollusca, and are the most highly diversified class in the phylum, with 65,000 to 80,000 living snail and slug species.

Dendronotus Claguei
''Dendronotus claguei'' is a species of sea slug in the family Dendronotidae. It was discovered by the MBARI while exploring the Alarcón Rise, found on an inactive hydrothermal chimney. The scientists collected two specimens, one 7 mm in length and the other 18 mm in length. Their discovery raised questions on how nudibranch Nudibranchs () are a group of soft-bodied marine gastropod molluscs which shed their shells after their larval stage.

Dendronotus Albus
''Dendronotus albus'' is a species of sea slug, a dendronotid nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusc in the family Dendronotidae.Bouchet, P. (2015)''Dendronotus albus''.In: MolluscaBase (2015). Accessed through: World Register of Marine Species on 2016-01-26. Distribution This species was described from shallow water at Point Pinos, Monterey Bay, California, United States. It has been reported from the west coast of North America from Alaska to Baja California, Mexico. Taxonomic history Robilliard correctly recognised that there were two species of ''Dendronotus'' in the NE Pacific and described ''Dendronotus diversicolor'' as a new species. ''D. albus'' and ''D. diversicolor'' were synonymised by Stout et al., 2010, probably because the specimens they studied did not include both species. In fact Robilliard consistently used the name ''D. albus'' for '' Dendronotus robilliardi'' and redescribed the true ''D. albus'' as ''D. diversicolor''.Korshunova T., Sanamy ...

Hijacking In March 2015 it was reported that ''The Veliger'' had been hijacked by a journal calling itself ''Veliger: An International Journal in Science''. In contrast to the real journal, the fake one has a website, and covers all areas of science. Although authors need to pay a high article processing charge to have their articles published, only paid subscribers to the fake journal can access them.

Hydroid (zoology)
Hydroids are a life stage for most animals of the class Hydrozoa, small predators related to jellyfish. Some hydroids such as the freshwater ''Hydra'' are solitary, with the polyp attached directly to the substrate. When these produce buds, they become detached and grow on as new individuals. The majority of hydroids are colonial. The original polyp is anchored to a solid substrate and forms a bud which remains attached to its parent. This in turn buds and in this way a stem is formed. The arrangement of polyps and the branching of the stem is characteristic of the species. Some species have the polyps budding directly off the stolon which roots the colony. The polyps are connected by epidermis which surrounds a gastrovascular cavity. The epidermis secretes a chitinous skeleton which supports the stem and in some hydroids, the skeleton extends into a cup shape surrounding the polyp. Most of the polyps are gastrozooids or feeding polyps, but some are specialised reproducti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Eolis And Dendronotus Woodcut In Beddard Animal Coloration 1892
Aeolis (; grc, Αἰολίς, Aiolís), or Aeolia (; grc, Αἰολία, Aiolía, link=no), was an area that comprised the west and northwestern region of Asia Minor (modern-day Turkey), mostly along the coast, and also several offshore islands (particularly Lesbos), where the Aeolian Greek city-states were located. Aeolis incorporated the southern parts of Mysia, and is bounded by it to the north, Ionia to the south, and Lydia to the east. Geography Aeolis was an ancient district on the western coast of Asia Minor. It extended along the Aegean Sea from the entrance of the Hellespont (now the Dardanelles) south to the Hermus River (now the Gediz River). It was named for the Aeolians, some of whom migrated there from Greece before 1000 BC. Aeolis was, however, an ethnological and linguistic enclave rather than a geographical unit. The district often was considered part of the larger northwest region of Mysia. History According to Homer's ''Odyssey'', Odysseus, after his ...
