The sea lettuces comprise the genus Ulva, a group of edible green algae that is widely distributed along the coasts of the world's oceans. The type species within the genus Ulva is Ulva lactuca, lactuca being Latin for "lettuce". The genus also includes the species previously classified under the genus Enteromorpha, the former members of which are known under the common name green nori.
The Bucketts Way is a 151-kilometre (94 mi) rural road that links Gloucester to Taree and Raymond Terrace, in New South Wales, Australia. It was named after the Bucketts Mountains, a prominent mountain range near Gloucester. Between 1928 and 1952 the Bucketts Way served as the alignment of the Pacific Highway between Raymond Terrace and Taree. The entire route is designated as Tourist Drive TD2.
Harpaphe haydeniana, commonly known as the yellow-spotted millipede, almond-scented millipede or cyanide millipede, is a species of polydesmidan ("flat-backed") millipede found in the moist forests along the Pacific coast of North America, from Southeast Alaska to California. The dark coloration with contrasting yellow-tipped keels warn of its ability to exude toxic hydrogen cyanide as a defense. Despite the various common names given the species, the coloration pattern, cyanide defense, and associated almond scent occur in other flat-backed millipedes around the world.
The Albanerpetontidae are an extinct family of small amphibians, native to the Northern Hemisphere during the Mesozoic and Cenozoic. They are thought to be allied with living amphibians of the order Lissamphibia. Despite a superficially salamander-like bodyform, their anatomy is strongly divergent from modern amphibians in numerous aspects. The fossil record of albanerpetontids spans over 160 million years from the Middle Jurassic to the beginning of the Pleistocene, about 2.13-2 million years ago.
Abagrotis is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae.
Faronta was a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. It is now considered a synonym of Dargida.
Petalumaria is a monotypic moth genus of the family Noctuidae. Its only species, Petalumaria californica, is found in the US state of California. Both the genus and species were first described by John S. Buckett and William R. Bauer, the genus in 1967 and the species three years earlier in 1964.
Pseudocopivaleria is a genus of moths of the family Noctuidae. The genus was erected by John S. Buckett and William R. Bauer in 1966.
Philtraea is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae.
Abagrotis reedi is a moth of the family Noctuidae first described by John S. Buckett in 1969. It is found in North America, from California, east to Arizona, Colorado and Iowa into Canada where it is found in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia.
Hindsiclava is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Pseudomelatomidae,
Cryoturris is a genus of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mangeliidae.
Kurtziella is a genus of small, predatory sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Mangeliidae. Prior to a 2011 genetic revision, the genus used to be included in the family Conidae.
Xystodesmidae is a family of millipedes. Its members often have very small distributional areas, with many species only known from a single locality. They are found across the northern hemisphere, with peak diversity in the Appalachian Mountains, where one-third of the 300 or so species occur. They are particularly abundant in deciduous broadleaf forests in the Mediterranean Basin, Africa, Asia, Central and North America, and Russia. Information on basic taxonomy is scant for this family; for example, it is estimated that the genus Nannaria contains over 200 species, but only 25 have so far been described.
Harpaphe is a genus of flat-backed millipedes native to the Pacific Northwest of North America. The genus contains three described species: two occurring only in northern California, and one with a large range extending from Southeast Alaska to Central California.
Gosodesmus is a genus of platydesmidan millipede, described by Ralph V. Chamberlin in 1922, that is widely distributed in the U.S. state of California. It is monotypic, being represented by the single species, Gosodesmus claremontus, commonly known as the pink feather boa millipede. Individuals vary in color from bright pink to coral, and may possess a black or purple dorsal stripe. Body length ranges from 17 to 27 mm, with up to 81 body segments. Gosodesmus claremontus occurs on the Coast Ranges as well as the Sierra Nevada, and is often found within rotted wood, especially oaks.
Chonaphini is a tribe of flat-backed millipedes in the family Xystodesmidae. There are about 6 genera and 19 described species in Chonaphini.
Xystocheirini is a tribe of flat-backed millipedes in the family Xystodesmidae. There are about 5 genera and more than 40 described species in Xystocheirini.
Wamokia is a genus of millipedes belonging to the family Xystodesmidae.
