Cyclothone livida is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone . It is found in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean. [1]
The Gonostomatidae are a family of mesopelagic marine fish, commonly named bristlemouths, lightfishes, or anglemouths. It is a relatively small family, containing only eight known genera and 32 species. However, bristlemouths make up for their lack of diversity with relative abundance, numbering in the hundreds of trillions to quadrillions. Two genera in the family, Cyclothone and Vinciguerria are thought to be the most abundant vertebrate genera in the world.
The veiled anglemouth, Cyclothone microdon, is a bristlemouth of the family Gonostomatidae, abundant in all the world's oceans at depths of 300 – 2,500 meters. Its length is 10–15 cm (4–8 in) though the largest known specimen is 7.6 cm (3 in). It gets its name from its circular mouth, filled with small teeth: the name “cyclothone” means in a circle or around and “microdon” means small teeth. The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has assessed the veiled anglemouth is of Least Concern due to its abundance in most oceans and the little effect human impact has on its population growth. Some of the veiled anglemouth's physical features include a brown to black body with a radiating, or expansive, bioluminescent pigment over its head and fins.
Odorrana livida, also known as the green mountain frog, green cascade frog, Tenasserim frog, bright frog, large odorous frog, or large-eared rock frog, is a species of frog in the family Ranidae. It is known with certainty only from its neotype locality at the Dawna Range in Myanmar, near the border to Thailand, but molecular data suggest that it is present in northeastern India and in peninsular Thailand too, while records from China refer to other species. In much of the literature, this species has been confused with other species, including Odorrana graminea.
Achatinella livida is an extinct species of air-breathing land snail, a terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusk in the family Achatinellidae. This species was endemic to Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi.
Utricularia livida, the leaden bladderwort, is a species of flowering plant in the bladderwort family, native to central and southern Africa, and Mexico. Growing to 50 cm (20 in) tall and broad, it is a carnivorous perennial. It was originally described and published by Ernst Heinrich Friedrich Meyer in 1837.
Calliphora livida is a member of the family Calliphoridae, the blow flies. This large family includes the genus Calliphora, the "blue bottle flies". This genus is important in the field of forensic entomology because of its value in post-mortem interval estimation.
Nebria livida is a species of ground beetle with two subspecies:
Cyclothone is a genus containing 13 extant species of bioluminescent fish, commonly known as 'bristlemouths' or 'bristlefishes' due to their shared characteristic of sharp, bristle-like teeth. These fishes typically grow to around 1-3 inches. They are most commonly found in the mesopelagic zone of the ocean, and are mostly found at depths of over 300 meters.
Amphipyra livida is a moth in the family Noctuidae. It is found in central and southern Europe, although strays are known from further north. It is also known from Anatolia to Korea, China and Japan.
Carex livida is a species of sedge known by the common names livid sedge and pale sedge.
Cantharis livida is a species of soldier beetle belonging to the genus Cantharis family Cantharidae.
Cyclothone acclinidens, commonly known as the benttooth bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone. It is found in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.
Cyclothone alba, commonly known as the bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone. It is found across the world, in the Pacific, Indian, and Atlantic Oceans.
Cyclothone atraria, commonly known as the deep-water bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone. It is found in the North Pacific.
Cyclothone braueri, commonly known as the garrick, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone.
Cyclothone kobayashii, commonly known as the Kobayashi's bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone. It is found in the Southern Ocean.
Cyclothone pallida, commonly known as the tan bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone.
Cyclothone pallida, commonly known as the shadow bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone.
Cyclothone pseudopallida, commonly known as the slender bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone.
Cyclothone signata, the showy bristlemouth, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclothone.
