Rhyzobius Epipleuralis
:Rhizobius'' is a genus in the fungi kingdom (see Disease resistance in fruit and vegetables), as well as an obsolete name for the aphid genus ''Pemphigus (bug), Pemphigus. ''Rhyzobius'' is a genus in the lady beetle family (biology), family (Coccinellidae). It belongs to tribe (biology), tribe Coccidulini of subfamily Coccidulinae, which is sometimes subsumed in the Coccinellinae as a tribe with the Coccidulini downranked to subtribe. The genus was established by James Francis Stephens, J.F. Stephens in 1832. Often misspelled as ''"Rhizobius"'', that is actually an older name, now suppressed, for a genus of wooly aphids. The misspelling was first made in the original description in 1832; however, Stephens had used the name in 1829 already (as ''nomen nudum'') and written it "Rhyzobius", so this spelling is used now. Louis Agassiz in 1846 argued that Stephens intended to write "Rhizobius" all along and formally proposed to change the name thus, but this is considered unwarranted. ...

Fungi
A fungus (: fungi , , , or ; or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and mold (fungus), molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as one of the kingdom (biology)#Six kingdoms (1998), traditional eukaryotic kingdoms, along with Animalia, Plantae, and either Protista or Protozoa and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of motility, mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Rhyzobius Lophanthae
''Rhyzobius lophanthae'', commonly known as the purple scale predator or the scale-eating ladybird, is a species of ladybird native to Queensland and Southern Australia. It was introduced into the United States in the 1890s and has since spread over the southern half of the country. Taxonomy This insect was first described in California in 1892 by the American entomologist Frank Ellsworth Blaisdell. He named it ''Scymnus lophanthae'', and thought it was a native American species. Unbeknown to him, the beetle was an introduced species, and at about the same time, it was described in its native Australia by the Australian entomologist Thomas Blackburn, who gave it the name ''Rhizobius toowoombae''. However, Blaisdell's name took precedence as it was published first, and ''R. toowoombae'' became a synonym. The specific name ''lophanthae'' means "of lophantha", referring to the plant '' Paraserianthes lophantha'' on which Blaisdell originally saw the ladybird. Description ''Rhyzobi ...
