Arene stephensoni is a species of extinct sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Areneidae.
An Arene, or aromatic hydrocarbon, is a hydrocarbon with alternating double and single bonds between carbon atoms forming rings.
Carduus is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, and the tribe Cardueae, one of two genera considered to be true thistles, the other being Cirsium. Plants of the genus are known commonly as plumeless thistles. They are native to temperate Eurasia and North Africa, and several are known elsewhere as introduced species. This genus is noted for its disproportionately high number of noxious weeds compared to other flowering plant genera.
Dombeya is a flowering plant genus. Traditionally included in the family Sterculiaceae, it is included in the expanded Malvaceae in the APG and most subsequent systematics. These plants are known by a number of vernacular names which sometimes, misleadingly, allude to the superficial similarity of flowering Dombeya to pears or hydrangeas. Therefore, the genus as a whole is often simply called dombeyas. The generic name commemorates Joseph Dombey (1742–1794), a French botanist and explorer in South America, involved in the notorious "Dombey affair", embroiling scientists and governments of France, Spain, and Britain for more than two years.
Eriolaena is a genus of flowering plants. Traditionally included in the family Sterculiaceae, it is included now in the recently expanded Malvaceae. The genus is distributed in Asia and eastern Africa, from southern China through Indochina to India, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, and coastal Mozambique.
Melhania is a genus of small shrubs or herbaceous plants. Traditionally included in the family Sterculiaceae, it is included in the expanded Malvaceae in the APG and most subsequent systematics. The genus is named for Mount Melhan in Yemen.
Pyrostria is a genus of dioecious flowering plants in the family Rubiaceae. Most of the species are endemic to Madagascar, others occur on islands in the western Indian Ocean, a few are found in continental Africa, and only six species occur in tropical Southeast Asia. The formerly recognized genus Leroya, containing two species endemic to Madagascar, L. madagascariensis and L. richardiae, was sunk into synonymy with Pyrostria.
Oxepin is an oxygen-containing heterocycle consisting of a seven-membered ring with three double bonds. The parent C6H6O exists as an equilibrium mixture with benzene oxide.
Liotia is a genus of very small sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the family Liotiidae.
Arene is a genus of small sea snails that have a calcareous operculum, marine gastropod molluscs in the family Areneidae.
Areneidae is a family of sea snails, marine gastropod mollusks in the clade Vetigastropoda.
Arene bairdii is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Areneidae.
Arene briareus is a species of sea snail, and is a known member of the group turban snails. It is a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Areneidae and order Trochida.
Arene microforis is a rare species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Muricidae, commonly known as murex snails. The species is found in the Indo-Pacific region, primarily in the shallow waters of the Philippines and Indonesia. The shell of Arene microforis is distinctive, featuring a distinctive pattern of ridges and furrows, and a color that ranges from light yellow to brown. The species is of interest to scientists due to its unique shell structure and the potential to provide insights into the evolution of murex snails. Arene microforis is considered to be a vulnerable species, with a limited distribution and a declining population due to habitat loss and over-collection for the shell trade.
Arene riisei is a species of small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Areneidae.
Arene tricarinata is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Areneidae.
Arene brasiliana is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Areneidae.
The Arene Candide, is an archaeological site in Finale Ligure, Liguria, Italy. Its name was derived from the eponymous dune of white (candida) sand (arena) that could be found at the base of the cliff until the 1920s in the Caprazoppa promontory, where the Arene Candide cave is located.
Ancyloxypha arene, the tropical least skipper, is a species of grass skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae. It is found in Central America and North America.
In chemistry, an arene oxide is an epoxide of an arene. Two important families of arene oxides are benzene oxides and naphthalene oxides as these are intermediates in the oxidative degradation of benzene and naphthalene, two common pollutants. Benzopyrene is also converted to an epoxide, (+)-benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-epoxide.
Anne-Marie Homolle (1912-2006), was a French botanist noted for studying and collecting plants of Madagascar. She identified at least 260 species of plants native to Madagascar, and two genera were named in her honor: Homollea and Homolliella.
