	Filinia ''Filinia'' is a genus of rotifers in the family Trochosphaeridae. The genus was first described by Jean Baptiste Bory de Saint-Vincent in 1824. The genus has a cosmopolitan distribution In biogeography, a cosmopolitan distribution is the range of a taxon that extends across most or all of the surface of the Earth, in appropriate habitats; most cosmopolitan species are known to be highly adaptable to a range of climatic and en .... Species The following species are recognised in the genus ''Filinia'': * '' Filinia brachiata'' (Rousselet, 1901) * '' Filinia camasecla'' Myers, 1938 * '' Filinia cornuta'' (Weisse, 1847) * '' Filinia limnetica'' (Zacharias, 1893) * '' Filinia longiseta'' (Ehrenberg, 1834) * '' Filinia novaezealandiae'' Shiel & Sanoamuang, 1993 * '' Filinia opoliensis'' (Zacharias, 1898) * '' Filinia passa'' (O.F.

picture info	Rotifer The rotifers (, from Latin 'wheel' and 'bearing'), sometimes called wheel animals or wheel animalcules, make up a phylum (Rotifera ) of microscopic and near-microscopic Coelom#Pseudocoelomates, pseudocoelomate animals. They were first described by John Harris (writer), Rev. John Harris in 1696, and other forms were described by Antonie van Leeuwenhoek in 1703. Most rotifers are around long (although their size can range from to over ), and are common in freshwater environments throughout the world with a few Seawater, saltwater species. Some rotifers are free swimming and truly planktonic, others move by inchworming along a substrate, and some are Sessility (zoology), sessile, living inside tubes or gelatinous holdfast (biology), holdfasts that are attached to a substrate. About 25 species are colonial (e.g., ''Sinantherina semibullata''), either sessile or planktonic. Rotifers are an important part of the freshwater zooplankton, being a major foodsource and with many specie ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
