Classification. Distinguishing taxonomic features In fossil cephalopods, reliance is placed upon shell details (general shape, type of coiling, external sculpture, and sutures). In living forms, except for the Sepioidea, the shell is strongly degenerate or missing and the characters used consist of details of the soft parts: presence or absence.
Cephalotus follicularis is a small, low growing, herbaceous species. Evergreen leaves appear from underground rhizomes, are simple with an entire leaf blade, and lie close to the ground. Evergreen leaves appear from underground rhizomes, are simple with an entire leaf blade, and lie close to the ground.
Introduction. The following introduction summarizes the key aspects of the natural history of the genus Daphnia.It is far from exhaustive. Because much of the biology has been studied over the past 250 years and is considered to be common knowledge, I give no references to specific studies in most cases.
Dugesia tigrina is about 12 mm long and is dark brownish or blackish in colour. It is a thin flattened worm with definite sides, there is an anterior end directed forwards in moving, one surface of the body is always uppermost, this is the dorsal surface, while the surface towards the substratum is ventral.
Cephalophus is a mammal genus which contains at least fifteen species of duiker, a type of small antelope. Species. Following Groves (2005), the species within Cephalophus include:. Aders's duiker Cephalophus adersi; Brooke's duiker Cephalophus brookei; Peters' duiker Cephalophus callipygus; Bay duiker Cephalophus dorsalis; Jentink's duiker Cephalophus jentinki; White-bellied duiker.
The West Australian pitcher plant is unique among all carnivorous plants. This ground-hugging pitcher plant evolved independently from Sarracenia, Darlingtonia, Heliamphora, or Nepenthes, and is native to a narrow strip of coastline in Southwestern Australia.Cephalotus produces small clumps of colorful thumb-size pitchers, which range from orangey-reds, to maroons, to almost black.
Description. Dugesia species have an elongated body with a slightly triangle-shaped head. Usually they have grey, brown or black colors on the dorsal body surface, the ventral surface uses to be paler. These animals have a couple of eyes constituted by a multicellular pigmented cup with many retinal cells to detect the amount of light in the nearby environment.
Cephalaspis, one of an early group of vertebrates called ostracoderms, possessed an external bony head shield, but probably its internal skeleton was not ossified to any great extent. Its eyes were situated on the dorsal side of the flat head; the ventral placement of its mouth indicates that Cephalaspis was a bottom-feeding animal.
